When I do a backup I get an error that the Theme does not back up. It goes ahead and creates the backup file. Has anyone seen this with Desktop Manager 5.0?

do you mean just under back up and restore or device switch?Quote:

If you backed up recently, dm only looks for updated apps. What you need to do is send your previous back ups to a zipped folder then delete original (not zipped) and empty recycle bin. Once you do that, run back up again. Also, remember to clear your browser cache. :)Quote:

So I wouldn't worry about it to be honest with you. Next time you restore your phone and use the theme you will have to arrange all the icons from scratch. But that should also remove the corrupted file so when you back up after that it will work.
If I uninstall DM 5.0 and reinstall 4.7 it works without any problem. Does that make sense?Quote:

It is the one I downloaded from the Blackberry.com website. It is English only and no media manager.Quote:

No I haven't. I went back to v4.7. As far as I know I do need 5.0 for any reason right now. Is that correct?Quote:

Since I went back to 4.7 how can I tell if the version I downloaded was 5.0.0.11?Quote:

Takes a handful of minutes.
I have done both and I still have the same problem.Quote:
