Installing App World
In order to get hold of the BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 software, users first have to get their BlackBerrys tooled up with the App World.
Long-term users of RIM’s handsets may well have already taken these steps, but if not it’s an easy enough task. Head over to the ’Application Centre’ option that sits on the main menu. From here, users can install some basic apps outside of the App World store itself.
One of the options should be ‘BlackBerry App World’. Select it and follow the instructions to install App World. After this, App World will appear on the BlackBerry’s main menu. Slight variations may occur in older, pre-5.0 versions of the BlackBerry OS, so there’s a second option too.
The App World interface can also be downloaded directly [a href="http://uk.blackberry.com/services/appworld/download.jsp#tab_tab_download" target="_blank" ]here[/a ].
