To allow users to install an application on BlackBerry devices using the BlackBerry Desktop Software, you must first make the application available to the BlackBerry Desktop Software.

  1. Obtain the application installer for the application from the application developer, vendor, or wireless service provider. The application installer is usually an .exe file.
  2. Run the application installer on the user's computer to install the .alx identifier file and .cod file in an installation folder. You can also run the application installer to install the .alx identifier file and .cod file in a shared network folder that users can access from their computers.
After you finish: When the application is available, users can install it on their devices. For more information about installing an application using the BlackBerry Desktop Software, visit www.blackberry.com/go/docs to find the required version of the BlackBerry Desktop Software User Guide.
