Desktop Software for PC

[Glammad]

I find this desktop manager is NOT set up for the average computer user and just wants you to PAY. As I was quoted $650.00 for one year of support. I will go back to Motorola before I pay that amount of cash. The Motorola software is user friendly and support was FREE. The only reason I got a BLACKBERRY is I won it and I broke my Motorola and needed a new phone anyway.

 I have had this paperweight for two weeks and am very tempted to recycle it. I have installed this software twice and reinstalled it twice and every time I try to connect it to my computer the Desktop Manager does not pick up my Blackberry it shows Disconnected yet I have to go to safely remove hardware to disconnect it and it shows in there

I would suggest you use the following procedure to do a clean install of the 4.3 software and download 4.5

I use this version and it is very stable with XP.

Here is the link for DM 4.5, I would STONGLY advise against downloading the media manager as it media not stable.
