BB (RIM) :: Cannot Sync Calendar On Desktop Over USB Cable?
Mar 28, 2010
I've upgraded to v5.0.1 blackberry desktop manager and now I cannot sync my calendar (outlook 2003) via USB cable. There is no error message - I can sync Address, Tasks, and Memos just fine, but completely ignores my calendar settings. Sync settings are correct to sync everything. I am using a BB 9700, most updated firmware.
I have done numerous google searches and found if I delete the fb service book then it should work - this has worked in the past but for some reason is not working now.I downgraded back to v5.0 blackberry desktop manager but now back to square one - can sync everything just fine, completely ignores my calendar - no error messages.
We have a problem where a Blackberry Bold is not synchronising the calendar with Outlook. All other parts seem to synchronise OK.I have done quite a bit of trouble shooting but have so far been unable to resolve and therefore need some help.Note during the synchronisation process, it never gives a dialogue box to say synchronisation complete and I am not sure if that is because something is going wrong or it always done that.The version of Blackberry desktop manager is the latest 5.0.1 and the.Anyway, I have for example tried creating a new profile in Outlook and set the synchronisation to sync with that.
I get the same results. None of the calendar entries appear in the Outlook calendar.Also note I did try and check the logs as explained at the following link but did not really get the same results. I did delete a calendar entry that I found but it did not seem to resolve the problem.Please advise me on the best steps to trouble shoot this problem.Obvious things such as restarting the PC and restarting the blackberry have been tried.
If I add an apppointment in my BB 9900 it does appear in my desktop calendar but if I put one in the desktop calendar it automatically appears on the BB. How can I get the appointments entered on my BB to appear on the desktop?
When I plug my Blackberry Curve 8330 into my desktop to charge and sync it, everything freezes and the message says "Getting status information from Outlook Calendar." And it doesn't allow me to cancel. it says it is cancelling but it never does. I have to turn the desktop off to get Blackberry to cancel. How can I fix this?
After the last software update I reset my sync with desktop configurations. The calendar fails to reset despite numerous tried and I desperately NEED my calendar to sync and everything else syncs BUT the calendar. what else can I try?

I cannot sync calender or contacts with my desktop software as it is wirelessly syncing. Blackberry tells me a have to disable it, and hives me the instructions to do so - calender-menu-options-turn off wireless sync. But I do not see this under Options. where can I find it? How do i turn it off so i can sync my phone?
I used to be able to sync my calendar from outlook to my Bold no problem. Now, the sync routine within the Blackberry Desktop application just skips calendar sync completely, nothing in the log file, just gives a little beep. Tasks, contacts, memo all sync fine. I have updated all device SW (5.0.0) and desktop versions. I have done hard resets, combined all calendars to one, etc.
When trying to sync my blackberry 8130 with microsoft office outlook (2003) using desktop manager 5.01 when reading the calendar it crashes with the message above. When going to the PtTrace.log in the intellisync folder on the pc I get the following message:
09:43:54.189: Phase=20, User=31ABF1F6: Reading data from Microsoft Outlook Calendar Fri Feb 19 09:44:37 2010: Error Bad Field Flag in Recur Blob 0x0100.0 at .ms_recur.cpp line 1844
How to find this calendar event so I can delete it?
I am using Outlook 2007, a Tour 9630, and Desktop Manager 5.0.1.28
I have configured two-way sync with Outlook Calendar through Desktop Mgr. I've verified that all of the advanced settings are also correct and out of the way:
No filters are set Conflict resolution says "add all conflicting appointments".Sync is two-way No confirmation is required for additions, deletions or changes
While my Outlook appointments are correctly being transferred to my BB, appointments entered directly on the BB will not transfer back to my Outlook calendar.
Using Outlook as POP but have been syncing calendar to blackberry 8830 device for some time now with no issues. Yesterday all Outlook calendar entries disappeared but entries are still on the blackberry. Reset synchronization and seems to update Outlook with any new ones and also update blackberry with any new calendar entries made in Outlook but none of original entries that are on BB will go to Outlook. Is there a way to export from the BB and import into Outlook. We have tried multiple things like one-way sync, device wins, etc. Don't want to lose entries on BB since there are tons. Just need to get them to Outlook. Any help is appreciated.
I purchased the Torch last week. I use it for work. Due to firewall issues I had to have my IT department download the Desktop Software for me so that I could sync everything. I am on the personal plan not the Enterprise, although I still can receive emails for work.
When I did the Configure Settings to set up the syncing it let me do the Calendar and then the Address book. Yet when I got ready to run the sync the Calendar says "not installed". I was able to sync the contacts with my Outlook, but for some reason can't get the Calendar to work. I really need to have my calendar sync'd.
I'm on AT&T and have had the Bold 9000 previously. I never had any problems with the Desktop Software until now.
Blackberry 9630 Desktop Manager 4.7 Ms Outlook 2003 Win XP Pro This is a clean install and syncing address book and contacts works fine. Syncing the calendar fails every time on entry 597 of 616. Why is it failing on this one specific entry and which one in my calendar is it? Also, what was the last Desktop Manager software version that included the Redirector?
I just updated the OS and the Desktop software to the newer versions above. As a result of that my calendar does not synchronize with the MSOutlook. The Desktop Software says that the Calendar is not installed.
If I go to the Selective Restore option he recognizes the Calendar (so the Calendar is there).
I've had my BB Torch for nearly a year & have no issues with synching but for some reason the calendar synch on my desktop software is now showing 'not installed'. I've done all the normal stuff to get it to synch but regardless it keeps showing 'not installed' - how can I get it back?
I am trying to sync my Yahoo calendar with my Blackberry Bold 9700 via the Blackberry Desktop Manager (version 5.0.1) and am getting the error message "Connection to Yahoo server was lost" when the calendar sync is occurring. The only option on the screen is to press "OK". Once "OK" is pressed, the Blackberry Desktop Manager returns to the synchronization screen. The address book syncs successfully, but the calendar does not. I have tried syncing one way and both ways without success.
A few notes about the environment: I am using the newer version of Yahoo Calendar which I have seen recommended on other postings. I am using standard Yahoo not the small biz version. I have seen this recommended, too.I am connecting my Blackberry Bold 9700 to my laptop via the USB cable that is supplied by Blackberry.
I have a Blackberry Bold 9700.I run Outlook 2010 and Plaxo.How can I get BlackBerry Desktop Manager to sync my contacts and Calendar with either of these applications?
Since this month, I have not been able to sync my BB calendar and contacts with my Yahoo account using the BB desktop manager. The process starts, but it never passes the address book part (it freezes and eventually crashes). I contacted Yahoo and they referred me to their Yahoo Intellisync. Which they don't support. I would switch to Google, but I recently changed my e-mail account; doing so one more time would be bad for business.
I haven't found a proper answer to this so posting here. Hopefully I will get a quick answer from some of the experts here.
BB Desktop Manager version: 5.0.1.37
Device: Curve 8900 4.6.1
Lotus notes version: 8.0.2
I use BIS with tmobile and have my gmail emails delivered to my device.I am doing a lotus notes one-way calendar sync with my BB calendar. I am able to do this successfully. But the alarm & free/busy thing does not sync.Even though I have alarm set in my notes which works perfectly and I see the notification 15 mins before the meeting on my PC. They don't show up in BB calendar. In BB Desktop Manager-> map fields, the notes 'notify me' is mapped to 'device alarm flag' but when I open the details of an entry that BDM is going to make in the accept/reject screen these fields are empty. I am using the default field mapping in the desktop manager.
All reminder works for the entries that I create directly in BB. The device calendar reminder is set properly. No issues there.What should I change in the desktop manager so that I get a reminder in my BB for the lotus notes entry?

I am new to Blackberry desktop manager for mac. It is all set up and first sync is done without a problem. Now when I try to sync, I get a message that over 600 of my past calendar items will be deleted if I continue with sync. I need to keep previous calendar items, is there a way to solve this problem and not delete past events? I am sorry for asking this question, I am just new and very unsure of what I am doing. I had used missing sync before, but when my blackberry had to be replaced, new blackberry wouldn't work so I wanted to try desktop manager.
I recently got the latest Desktop Software. For some reason my Outlook calendar no longer syncs with my Blackberry. When I go under Organizer in the Desktop Software, MemoPad Address Book & Tasks are all checked off and working, however, Calendar isnt checked and in brackets beside it says Not Installed. No idea why this is or how I install it to make it work again.
I checked my settings on my desktop manager and opened my ipd file-nothing for my contacts or calendar. What did I do wrong? Is there any chance on earth I get any contacts back?Here are my settings:
Back up all application data
Back up on board device memory
When I did the automatic backup it was saved to my docs.I don't have outlook or anything.
After many months without problems with synchronization of the organizator, now the data of calendar are not synchronizate becouse the desktop software shows "calendar not install". I donīt now how and where to reinstall or correct this unusual problem.
I've been using DM6 for the last week or so and am very disappointed. It does not seem to remember the last time that I synced or backed up. The only time it remembers is the first time I synced my BB with it. Not such a big issue for syncing, but I like my BB to backup weekly...so once a week has passed after the first sync, it wants to back up every time.
DM 5.0.1 worked flawlessly, but since I am using Outlook 2010, I can't go back.Come on RIM, you can do better than this.Any suggestions on how to get DM to remember when it actually backed up or synced?
I've got a BB9700, Bold 2.At home, Outlook, it syncs happily. At work, with Lotus Notes, it crashed when "updating the devide calendar". There was no issue a few months ago doing exactly the same thing.I'm not sure if it's related, but for some stupid reason I installed Facebook and accidently got the calendar to sync with facebook. I have now removed all entries for the Facebook calendar and al the Service book for Facebook calendar, so it now doesn't appear anywhere.
Facebook is blocked by works firewall, so I therefore assumed that was the problem, hence deleting all my calendar entries associated to Facebook.I've tried syncing with both Bluetooth and the cable.
At work, we use Novell Groupwise. Calendar syncs fine, but BB Desktop Manager crashes when I sync addresses. I can load one-way from the computer to the BB, but not the other way. I may have a corrupt address, but haven't been able to get it all to work. What do I do to stop this?
