Start PocketMac (assuming that is what you're using) first before connecting the Pearl. PocketMac loads all the drivers. There are a lot of quirks to get the phone to work with the mac as I found out!

thats odd, mine was seamless after the PocketMac install, opened PocketMac and plugged in the USB, set the Sync settings and away she went...

I actually ended up removing PocketMac because I'm using XP SP2 with bootcamp and I use the no sh1t Blackberry Desktop Software on that side...

Good luck with anything, and if you get stuck again, try blackberryforums.com for blackberry specific questions...

I use Missing Sync for Blackberry. It works great. I tried Pocketmac and I didn't like it. It wouldn't work properly for me at all.

I've used Missing Sync and it worked for sometime then one day I got error message that my blackberry would not connect. Thanks to the suggestions here I installed Pocketmac and it works beautifully now. Thanks bunches!
