    Hit the menu button the one on the left below the green send key, go to options and scroll down to themes.

    On my memory card where do i put the apps
    Load the Desktop Mgr and plug the phone into your PC, you can explore the files on the memory card and put them anywhere you want music, videos etc...

    Desktop Mgr will back up save load OS transfer music and convert videos using Roxio etc...

    Themes don't get installed on your mem card. They are apps and get directly installed on the device. You cannot change their location.
    Also make sure when you download themes you download themes specific to your device or they won't work.

    If you can't install the Desktop Mgr by CD then try a direct dl link from RIM, I'm using XP sp3 and my disc loaded fine.

    Hi , downloaded the desktop manager from internet- disc must be faulty ??
    I remeber had the same prob with the LG viewty pc suite disc instalation ( along with many others ).
    Anyway managed to get software.
    Ive messed about and can manage some themes but only ZIP (cant do OTA files at all ).
    so if anyone can give me links to Zip themes for the 8220 i would be grateful
