3.On the network drive, double-click the .exe file.

4.Complete the installation.

Confirm that the BlackBerry Application Loader Version 4.1 appears in the network drive (recommended)

3.On the Version tab, verify that the version number of the loader.exe file is 4.1 or later.

4.If the loader.exe file version number is earlier than 4.1, visit www.blackberry.com/support/downloads/ to obtain the Version 4.1 software.

Distribute the BlackBerry Desktop Software installation files (if required)

If BlackBerry device users do not have the BlackBerry Desktop Software Version 3.6 or later installed on their computers, send the BlackBerry Desktop Software to their computers.

You can customize and distribute the BlackBerry Desktop Software installation file to force settings and install the software automatically on users’ computers or you can install the BlackBerry Device Manager on user computers using standard .msi installation parameters.

Option 1: Send the BlackBerry Device Manager installation file to user computers

Send users the BlackBerry Device Manager to enable them to perform actions such as charging their BlackBerry devices, synchronizing organizer items through the BlackBerry Router, and upgrading BlackBerry Device Software without you having to distribute large BlackBerry Desktop Software installation files over the corporate LAN.

If users have the BlackBerry Desktop Manager installed on their computers and you distribute the BlackBerry Device Manager to their computers, the BlackBerry Desktop Manager is removed automatically.

1.Visit www.blackberry.com/support/downloads/ to obtain the BlackBerry Device Manager Version 4.1 installation file.

2.Copy the BlackBerry Device Manager installation file to the network drive.

3.In an email message, add the path to the BlackBerry Device Manager installation file on the network drive. Instruct users to click the blackberry device manager v4.1.msi file.

Option 2: Send the BlackBerry Desktop Software installation file to user computers

Send users the full BlackBerry Desktop Software to enable them to synchronize organizer items and manage message redirection. If users have installed the S/MIME Support Package on their BlackBerry devices, send them the BlackBerry Desktop Software. They require the certificate synchronization tool of the BlackBerry Desktop Software to synchronize certificates and private keys.

1.Visit www.blackberry.com/support/downloads/ to obtain the BlackBerry Desktop Software installation files.
