does anyone know why verizon hid the mac options on the 8830? It took me a few hours of searching the web and bb's site in order to find the appropriate software to allow me to back up my bb on my mac.

What software did you use? I'm interested in knowing more?

Did you see this post? it will give you options for sync on the BB.

My friend over at Apple was telling me that the Desktop manager is coming out for sure...but in the mean time to use the PocketMac Syncmanager it works the exact same way.

I'm hoping the new version will have the backup/restore/switch device options the PC version does.

Hmm...thats odd have you tried a battery pull after you tried the formatting of your card...?

This is definitely good news! I'm surprised that it has taken so long for companies to realize that Mac's are more than just a passing fad! I for one will not go back to the PC world.
