BlackBerry Bridge Problems Download - Try Resetting App World Or Installing With Browser Plugin

Early this morning I mentioned that BlackBerry Bridge was available for download through App World. A bunch of readers let me know they were having problems downloading it so if you are too, you’re not alone. I was having some trouble too but was able to download it after resetting App World. Here’s how to do that:

1. Open BlackBerry App World
2. While at the main screen hold ALT and type RST.
3. Wait for App World to close and then re-open it.
4. Once App World is open again, search for “BlackBerry Bridge”.
5. Click Download.

In the event that your App World still doesn’t give you the download option after resetting it, the other way to install BlackBerry Bridge is by using the browser plugin. Here’s how to do that:

1. Download the App World plugin here.
2. Go to the App World at http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/ through a desktop browser.
3. Sign in using your BlackBerry ID.
4. Search for “BlackBerry Bridge” and then click on Get Details.
5. Click on Download.
6. Follow instructions to sync the app using a USB cable.

If neither of these steps work for you hopefully RIM will post a dedicated page on their site with a direct download. If they did work or you have another workaround figured out, be sure to let me know in the comments and stay tuned for a video on BlackBerry Bridge!
