The error occurred after upgrading from BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.2.2 to version 4.3. The upgrade failed to remove the
Connectors folder in C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Connectors. As a result, the old Microsoft Outlook desktop applications are registered with BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.3.
If the
Connectors folder is still present in C\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Connectors\MS Outlook Connector, follow these steps:
- Unregister the old Microsoft Outlook connector ilxolkCompanion.fil.
- Open the command prompt.
- Navigate to C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Connectors\MS Outlook Connector.
- Type in the command regsvr32 -u ilxolkCompanion.fil.
- In Desktop Manager, Microsoft Outlook will no longer be listed as an available desktop application.
- Register the most current Microsoft Outlook connector.
- Navigate to C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\IS71 Connectors\MS Outlook Connector.
- Type in the command regsvr32 msoutlookconnector.fil.
- In Desktop Manager, Microsoft Outlook will now be registered as an available desktop application.
Once these steps have been completed, configure synchronization again.
