Could it be that so many Crackberry Addicts are trying to download this file. I went through the process several times and got a Proxy Error message. Then I finally got thru and it stopped downloading after 15 MB. This is crazy.

3 times it has stopped downloading at 10-15 mb

Is there anything different? just support for the Storm and that's it...

Does anybody know if the 4.7 software will have BB redirector?

Thanks

Sure wish they'd come out with a Mac friendly version

 
 
Posted by sleepyddD Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Yes it would be nice for a mac application. A friend of mine has to come over to my place to use the application loader all the time.

Umm... From what I see on their site, isn't "PocketMac" their support for Macintosh computers?

 
 
Posted by Achronas Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

When is the Mac support coming?!?!

I downloaded the new DM 4.7 upgrade and installed it on my computer. I connected my bold to it, I have the ATT Bold with .168 operating system, and a message appeared that it was checking for device system updates. It said there were a whole list of updates. Is it trying to give me a whole new operating system or is it just updating portions of the one i have?????I cancelled it because i wasn't sure what i should do.

Well I finally decided to let the device update run and it checked my device and said that no updates were needed. That answers my question.

Tried downloading it earlier but the website kept timing out. Now when I hit the download button it says the file is temporarily unavailable and to try again later. Grrr.

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Sorry, the file is temporarily unavailable, please try again later or contact the webmaster

anyone have it yet??? any mirror sites up yet... i know impatient!

if i backed up my 8830WE on the previous Desktop software will i be able to restore it on the storm? will it work?

 
 
Posted by Grafixx01 Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

It will work without any problems. You'll just have to install the software for the Storm on your computer. You could leave the 8830WE software on it so you can wipe and reload once your up and running with the Storm.

It'll work, I just had to downgrade myself to the 8330 from the 8830. Everything transferred without issues.

Rim took the Desktop Manager 4.7 down

 
 
Posted by bet00z Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

File taken down!

 
 
Posted by bobojay Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Haven't been able to get access all morning. Must be because of server overload??? Possibly?

 
 
Posted by Grafixx01 Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

It's working fine for me. I'm grabbing the with and without Media Sync right now. Though it's saying like 4hrs for both but that's probably my connection from work too.

 
 
Posted by amirnabilkamelsaad Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I got it first thing in the morning today and, it works fine..
I tried the tethering and works ok too. Standard modem didn't disappear and everything seems the same to me.
I had a problem downloading it though...270 MB and it just stopped claiming it was complete. So I redownloaded it again and it was successful on my second attempt.

No luck trying to get 4.7

 
 
Posted by dougproctor Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Been trying to download this new version and almost given up. Why are BB's servers so damn slow? I have a fastish laptop and haven't yet managed to get through to the download file message yet!

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

for some reason it wouldnt let me download the file using mozilla. after a few tries in internet explorer i got past the proxy error and now it is letting me download the file. still going slow. 80kb/s but its not stopping at 10mb anymore

 
 
Posted by twassel Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

It's downloading now, but until I get a Storm, what else is new about 4.7?

 
 
Posted by kak Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

How are you guys getting the file? Every time I select any variation of the 4.7 Desktop Software, I get the "Sorry, the file is temporarily unavailable, please try again later or contact the webmaster." message.

What is wrong with RIM? I have been getting an error message ALLLL day!

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

can someone put a working copy up somewhere...

 
 
Posted by hboutin Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I just went to the site and it looks like it has been removed. Could not download it. Anybody else happened the same?

 
 
Posted by SamVJr Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Yea I’m getting this too "Sorry, the file is temporarily unavailable, please try again later or contact the webmaster."

 
 
Posted by GapBoyPCS Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I'm getting the same message.

It must be very significant that RIM pulled the update, although the drop-down menus still show a 4.7 being available.

I'm hoping with this update, additional "official" updates will be available.

We're Sorry...

* Sorry, the file is temporarily unavailable, please try again later or contact the webmaster.

WTH?!?!

 
 
Posted by jgonzaga Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

Does anybody know if it works with the BB Bold?

 
 
Posted by jin-n-juice Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I've managed to download the full download of 4.7 (english only, no media manager). So has 4.7 been officially pulled? Is posting this on rapidshare allowed?

 
 
Posted by wrhfinancial Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I was able to download the file with the Media Manager

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

put it up on rapid share please!!!!

 
 
Posted by Bla1ze Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

LOL!! It's all you addicts trying to download it, RIM's servers are overloaded at this point, much similar to a DDOS attack. lmao!!

 
 
Posted by shorynot Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

File is temporarily down for me too. For those of you who have gotten it, what has changed? Is this simply an aesthetic thing or what?

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

I went to the Verizon store today and was getting a new cover for my curve and asked the guy if they had got any storms in yet and he said they had gotten a test unit to mess around with but he couldn't let me see the thing till Friday! I was close to just running to the back stealing the thing and running. But then i thought is it better to have one for an hour or so till the cops track me using the gps or just wait till Friday. I decided to wait but at least i know that the store at least has a test unit so it makes me happy to know that were so close to the release.

 
 
Posted by dbaci3 Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

The download link has been put back up! hurry up and download it while its hott!

 
 
Posted by gibsonhtp Monday, Nov 17, 2008 1283 days ago

RIM's servers are slowwwwww. But at least it's downloading now.

 
 
Posted by chochopr Tuesday, Nov 18, 2008 1283 days ago

I had no problem downloading it, it took me 5 to 10 mins for the file to be complete... I guess it's mu internet speed, or like that guy said, must be all you CrackBerry Addicta trying to download it at the same time time lol, that was a joke... Cause I consider myself a CrackBerry Addict... I got a freash copy of the new Desktop Manager goin' to install it on my laptop so that I could compare the both 4.6 and 4.7...

 
 
Posted by Katsumoto Tuesday, Nov 18, 2008 1283 days ago

i was able to download it successfully this morning but it took forever, assuming because of all those trying to at the same time. havent noticed any difference at the moment.

 
 
Posted by JagoMidnight Tuesday, Nov 18, 2008 1283 days ago

Dont see any reason to up my Desktop Manager, I'm still on OS 4.2 on my Curve, come on when is 4.5 coming out for AT&T? I dont get it

 
 
Posted by JMillionNYC Tuesday, Nov 18, 2008 1283 days ago

its downloading

 
 
Posted by Anonymous Tuesday, Nov 18, 2008 1283 days ago

Yea tell me about it. We at at&t get no love. Its BS at&t and blackberry get on the ball!!! I want 4.5

 
 
Posted by swmann Wednesday, Nov 19, 2008 1282 days ago

I also got tired of waiting for AT&T to release OS 4.5 for my pearl 8110, so I installed the file that was provided by another carrier. This process is very simple and 4.5 is running flawlessly on my 8110.

Email me at steve.mann@newdominion-llc.com and I can send you instructions on how to do the upgrade.
