Thanks very much John, I will keep this handy for the next time. It's very good to have options. I am almost done with the Swiss Army Method.

If you are unsure, it would probably be a good idea to uninstall the Desktop Manager and start again. If you don't have the CD that came with your Blackberry, the Software can be downloaded here. BlackBerry Software Site <http://www.discoverblackberry.com/software/> Step 2 Download the file <http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Remove_IT_Policy> policy.bin Download Here. <http://www.blackberryforums.com/media/itpolicy/policy.bin> and save it in your Blackberry installation directory (C:\Program Files\Research In Motion <http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Remove_IT_Policy> \BlackBerry). Step 3 Wipe your Blackberry, creating a backup if necessary. Select Options/Security/Wipe (Newer 4.2 OS Devices Goto Options/Security Options/General Settings/Wipe) on the Device. If this option is unavailable, you may have to install the latest software on your Blackberry. You need to Download and install the latest Desktop Manger Software <http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Remove_IT_Policy> , then the latest Handheld Software. Connect your device, open the Desktop Manager, select Application Loader, and follow the prompts. Step 4 Close the Desktop Manager if it is open. Step 5 >From the Windows Start Menu select Run..., and at the prompt type regedit. In the tree on the left hand side, navigate to: HKEY_Current_Users\Software\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\PolicyManager Right-Click the Policy Manager Folder and select New/String Value. Name the value Path. Now, Double-Click the Path Subkey and set Value Data to: C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\policy.bin Step 6 Open the Desktop Manager. Step 7 Connect the Device. Verification Once complete, the Options/Security screen on your Blackberry should not contain references to an IT Policy, you should now be able to change all settings (including password prompts), and install Third Party Applications.

After I back up the apps and reset the device to factory defaults, will I lose anything else? Should I back up the data using BB Desktop manager as well?. Just want to be sure, I don't lose anything on this users BB.
