Just got a BB 7290 on Rogers Wireless. Upgraded the Desktop software, SP1 version, and got the 4.0.2 handheld upgrade right off the bat before even using it, only to find i cant seem to keep the handheld connected to the desktop manager application launcher.

1. I attach the handheld to the comp. with the supplied USB.
2. Handheld is on. Phone off.
3. Open Desktop manager.
4. Open application launcher, the handheld is detected, and it says updates available now... "YES"
5. Takes me to a list of applications that will be udated etc.. NOW... Somwhere between here and sometimes in the middle of updating the handheld disconnects. So that screen closes and takes me back the the reg "Desktop Manager" screen, and the status bar on the bottom says disconnected, and sometime says connected but either way once im in the application launcher it disconnects.

Thats my dilemma, next step is the local Rogers to RANT!! LOL

Help.. would be appreciated.

Thanks

I would unistall both the desktop manager and do a wipe on the BB and reload everything from scratch.

And don't use a USB hub or anything. Make sure you have a good cable and that its plugged directly into the USB port of the computer.

I gotta fever! And the only prescription is more cowbell!

It has to be unistalled and then reinstalled not installed over an already installed copy, it has to be clean and fresh.
