BibleReader 1.x BlackBerry Installation Instructions (For OS 4.1 or earlier, no media card)

Follow the installation instructions below that match the type of computer you are installing from (PC or Mac). We recommend trying the auto installation first. If for some reason this is not successful, follow the manual installation instructions also included below.

Having Installation Problems?

A number of the new BlackBerry Curve units seem to have shipped with faulty device and/or desktop software that makes it difficult to install third party applications. There is an update patch available from BlackBerry that should correct this problem. To download the update specific for your device, go to the link below on BlackBerry’s website. Locate your service provider in the region list, and click on that link. On the next page, select your specific model number from the dropdown list, and proceed with the download/install. Once complete, sync your BlackBerry with your desktop computer, then try installing the Olive Tree software once more.
