You can try UNinstalling it and reinstall. What computer platform, type of Windows OS or Mac? What happens - nothing at all?

I've got VistaHome64 and it has worked for me. Somewhere I found a link to the V. 7.xxx beta which I've also been using for a while but the 6.xxx also worked.

Ah, found the link: Use at your own risk!

I also had problems getting Desktop Manager to work properly with me. Turns out it was a bad install. Make sure you do all your windows updates and uninstall DM. Restart computer. Install latest version of DM directly from blackberry website.. Restart pc.
