I have a Blackberry 7890 and I cannot get it to synch with my Outlook program on my desktop. I have installed and removed the program numerous times, but I beleive that I am doing something wrong in the set-up so that it is not synching with each other. I have the disc in the computer and would like to start from scratch and see what can be done to help before I take this back and go with another PDA. Can you help? Thanks.

Hello
Please hold for some minutes while I'm preparing the instructions.
No problem. If you would like to remote to my computer that would be fine as well, if needed.
Please tell me what kind of connection do you use with your PDA?
USB
Thank you.

Thank you.
Please clarify what type of data do you want to synchronize with your PDA?
The contact list and the calender, mainly.
Ok.
For faster and more efficient problem resolution, I recommend you to download and install TekLink™, LiveRepair’s proprietary software that collects diagnostic information on your computer.
You can download it from Downloads section of our site.
During TekLink™ installation you will be asked to enter a “Setup Code,” which will distinguish you as a Personal Plan customer. To obtain your Setup Code, please perform the following steps:
1) Logon to your account
2) Go to the Downloads section
3) Type in or just copy and paste the Setup Code you see onto the TekLink™ page.
Note: Please be sure to stay on-line while installing TekLink™, since it will need to download certain components from web site.
As soon as the file is downloaded, please double-click it and follow the on-screen instructions to install TekLink™. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have a question or problem during installation.
I already have another issue earlier.
I had downloaded TelLink earlier today on a previous problem.
Would you mind us running TekRemote™ screen sharing to eliminate this problem?
