Re: IOS for BlackBerry
What you are asking is impossible. Apple software will not run on Blackberry.

Re: IOS for BlackBerry
Regardless, Apples and Blackberries only mix in pies.

I doubt that the question is about syncing a Blackberry to a Mac. We'll have to wait for the OP to return & clarify.Last edited by lelisa13p; 06-22-2012 at 05:54 PM.

Re: IOS for BlackBerry
If it's about syncing with OSX, I can say that he isn't in for an easy time. I found that both Missing Sync and BB Desktop Manager for OSX were very adept at creating duplicates, sometimes hundreds a month. I haven't tried to sync a BB since iCloud came out so it's possible Apple did some things to the OS to improve sync with third party stuff but I doubt the experience using a BB with OSX will be much better now than it was for me 2 years ago.

Re: IOS for BlackBerry
Thanks for all the replies!
I thought that BlackBerry and Android Phones has of somehow similar features and since Android Phones can use IOS then so I thought also that it could be applicable
for BlackBerry.
And so I thank you all for my thoughts and ideas regarding this matter is wrong

Re: IOS for BlackBerry
Welcome to Brighthand, ken19! Does your sister need some particular functionality on her phone that you need help with? IOS is the operating system for Apple iPhones and it cannot be installed on either Blackberry or Android phones. A lot of the functionality that's available for one smartphone is available for other smartphones in one form or another. If you let us know what functionality you're looking for, we might be able to help.

Re: IOS for BlackBerry
I think Ken 19 is wrong. Each brand of mobile phones run on their own platform. While Apple runs on iOS, Android phones run on android platform and window mobile phones run on Windows platform. One operating system cannot run on another. We are yet to see that technology.
