If you are referring to the Blackberry Desktop Manager program that comes with the Storm, you can download it from Verizon Wireless site under their support section.

thanks.....more questions i'm afraid

does the 9530 = 9500? is the '30' the american version?

couldnt find that link for download....can someone provide a direct link?

thanks again

the site i go to is here
BlackBerry - Desktop Software - BlackBerry Desktop Software at BlackBerry.com



I dont think that the versions are different but its located under downloads right on the blackberry.com website..

i d/l'ed this, thanks for the help....

but when i click on 'media' i cannot chose 'media manager' - its blanked out (screen shot below). i've tried reinstalling the software but it was the same result 2nd time...any advice? thanks

[john from ireland]

i'll give it one 'ttt' then assume no one knows/cares

Do you have your storm plugged into the computer?

[john from ireland]

yes it was plugged in

IMO the media manager that came with the disk is a pain... I just pull the SD card out and plug it in my PCs card reader... much easier.

EDIT: or... you can enable mass storage and navigate the SD card without having to pull it out. (i can't believe I JUST NOW thought of this, LOL)
