Hey everyone,

I got a Bold 9780 yesterday, and I connected by Playbook to it today, and was disappointed to notice that BBM didn't show up on the Playbook. The surprising thing is that I had BBM working fine on the Playbook with my Bold 9000 on OS 5! Now, with my newer 9780, BBM doesn't work. All the OS's are updated to the latest software. Anyone else have this problem? Solutions?

Make sure you have the latest BBM 5.0.3.22 installed. Get it from BlackBerry home page or App World.

What he said.
If you updated the OS on your phone it doesn't give you the latest version of BBM. You have to update BBM separately.

Thanks guys! I got an update this morning for BBM, and I just checked, and it works with my PlayBook. I'm curious why I didn't get the BBM update earlier, though. I had been in the App World checking multiple times, and I've even factory reset my BB twice since I bought it

Thanks for this post!! Having similar issues with relatively new 9780... had just discovered the culprit was likely the update BBM on this related thread:

Seems now its surely the need to update BBM.
