Connect the handheld to your PC
When connecting the handheld to the PC, use only the charging
cradle provided by Research In Motion Limited.
1.
Ensure that you have properly installed the Desktop Software.
If it is not already open, launch the Desktop Manager by
selecting it from the Start>Programs menu.
2.
Insert the end of the cradle cable into a COM port on the back of
your PC. Connect the AC adapter to the cradle cable as shown
below. Plug the AC adapter into an available power outlet.
3.
Secure the handheld in the cradle by inserting the connector
port on the bottom edge of the handheld into the connector
prongs of the cradle and press firmly in place.
Note
When you first receive your handheld, you must insert it into
the cradle (with the AC connector plugged into a power
outlet) and allow the handheld to fully charge to activate it.
Note
If the password is enabled, you must enter it before you can
connect to the desktop. See page 40 for more information
on the password.
