    I have Facebook 1.5 (the latest .32 version) installed however my bb Cuve 8900 only downloads 2 birthdays and then never syncs again. additionally it only downloads info for some contacts that match between my phone book and facebook. any ideas whether you can force the sync or control when it happens??

    manually sync contacts works for birthdays

    in facebook in your friend list highlight friend hit the menu then connect to bb contact then choose bb contact to sync with,

    ps. it will only sync birthday info for friends sync with bb address book, not all you facebook fiends

    You know that birthday and anniversary field in the BB address book is useless if doesn't copy the date to the following year. Defeats the purpose of having it if you have to manually adjust it every year.

    Perfect that worked - but now is there a way to pull all FB friends birthdays into your BB calendar, that would really be ideal instead of linking them to each and every contact in your phone book. Thanks for the help so far!
