Desktop Software for PC

I sync to Goldmine using companion link software. Does 6.0 support the companion link add-in? If so, how do I configure?

Hello there,

Desktop 6 does not support 3rd party add-ins, so no, CompanionLink is not supported. Very bad decision of RIMs part.

I've just gone through the trouble of installing and then uninstalling DM6.

I use CompanionLink to sync with Act! and have had to go back to DM5 in order to continue using it.

RIM should realize that not everyone out there uses Outlook as their PIM.

Note to RIM: Please add this very important functionality for DM6!

folks at companion link say it's in there somewhere and they're working on a fix. Really is a pain in the...

Thanks for the info Randy. I stand corrected. I'll wait for the fix from CompanionLink before upgrading.

cheers...

I did uninstall DM6 and reinstalled DM5 but it still didn't work.  How did you uninstall DM5? Anything special?

Desktop 6 and Missing Add-in function

Add-In support IS in Desktop Software 6, RIM jsut changed some of the APIs and the vendors of the add-ins need to update thier add-ins... (or RIM needs to put back what they took out)

Hi everyone,

Thanks for you patience! We've been working hard at this the past week, and we're happy to announce that the latest build of CompanionLink now supports BlackBerry Desktop 6. For more information on how it all works, and to download the latest build of CompanionLink, visit www.companionlink.com/bb6

I've just installed the CompanionLink (v3) upgrade and I'm now able to sync perfectly to ACT! using DM6.

Thanks for the quick fix and as always, a great product.
