3. Under "Contact Lists" will hopefully be one of your e-mail accounts you have configured with your Blackberry - click on it
4. Turn "Wireless Synchronization" to "No"
5. Go back into DM and hopefully the "Address Book" will no longer be greyed out and can be transferred onto the device!

Let me know if this helped!
This solution works! After I reloaded my OS for the 4th time I could not restore my contacts on my 9930 using DM or BB Protect even though I used both frequently. Thank You LightningStar for the solution.
