Specific to Card Loader

The SD card doesn't seem to be visible?

In order for the SD card to be visible to the device, ensure 'Mass Storage Mode' is not enabled when you want the device to read from the Media Card.

How do I install applications using Card Loader?

To move applications to the storage card, you can select the 'Save to Card' option when installing OTA (Over-The-Air). You can also move files from a personal computer to the media card. For more information please see the user manual available above.

How does the save to SD card via OTA option work?

Aerize Card Loader allows you to load and unload applications from the SD Card, much like the BlackBerry Desktop Manager's Application Loader on a personal computer. This allows conservation of precious device memory, by using the storage space on the media card while the application is not in use.

When saved to SD Card via OTA, a copy is saved to the card while the OTA is downloaded and installed to the device. It will be installed, saved to the device, and saved to the card. You can unload and reload from the SD Card at this point.

The "save to SD card" option doesn't seem to be available.

This is a permissions issue. See about setting permissions.

How does Card Loader work in general?

The BlackBerry contains only a limited amount of flash memory for holding themes, applications, and media. Fortunately all of the most recent BlackBerry devices also feature a MicroSD card port -- but, they still lack the ability to transfer programs to the main memory from the SD card as you might expect to be able to do.

Aerize Card Loader lets you do this. Here's how to manage your memory with Card Loader:

• Download programs to the media card,
• Load the application to the device when desired,
• Unload the application when you're done with it.

And that's it! The real convenience lies in not needing a desktop computer to install or remove applications -- Card Loader takes care of it for you. Card Loader will add a "Save to SD card" option when you're installing OTA. Similarly, you can still use USB mass storage mode or a SD card reader in your desktop computer to transfer the .cod application files you need to the SD card. Once they're on the card, feel free to install and uninstall as you wish. Only the programs actually installed to the BlackBerry's device flash memory will consume space -- otherwise, they'll exist only on the SD card.

Due to the OS' security restrictions, Card Loader cannot access other applications already installed to the device's internal memory. As a result, the easiest way to install applications to the SD card is usually to just download them again and select the "Save to SD card" checkbox. Then Card Loader will have a copy on the SD card that it can use for installing or reinstalling. For the information consult the Card Loader manual.
