This happens on BES too. It is not a function of the policy, it is because you are set up for wireless sync. You need to disable the wireless sync for the item in question first. I haven't finished setting up Unite, so I can't comment on that yet, but for BES, you go into Enterprise Activation on the device. Type Alt-CNFG and then set wireless sync to no. Do your restore. Then go back in and set to yet.

You can also turn off wireless sync for your PIM data in each application. For instance in the Calendar app, you can go to Options and turn off wireless sync right there, restore, then go back and turn it back on. The last time I went to alt+cnfg in the EA screen just to look at what it did, it ran another EA after and I didn't even change anything.

Exactly!
I just wanted to share a calendar with my wife's blackberry so we can coordinate our lives.
All of the IT policy business as well as the problems have scared me away from a trial install of the program.
...it was soooo promising too.

Yup. It runs a full resync. It is usually quicker than a bulk load though.

Poking around in the database reveals that the ITPolicy tables are the same (or pretty close) to the BES. As a matter of fact, the whole Unite DB looks a lot like BESMGMT. I might throw berrystats on it just for fun. My point being that we can probably dummy up an IT Policy on the BES that we like and insert it in as the default policy on Unite. I need to change one to enable wireless bypass. It appears that the default on Unite is the same as on BES. Looks like I have a little project at work next week.

Just be aware that it adds an IT policy to the device. Any device with OS 4.3 and higher can have the policy removed, though. It's a bit of a hassle but not like it used to be.

Is it true that it only sync's your calendar so far back and so far ahead.

I've been wanting to check out this BB Unite stuff since I first heard about it almost a year ago. Now that I have it, I wish I never installed it. BB unite sucks! IT policies, random policies about nothing, never sinc'd a thing on my phone even when I had it installed. Complete waste of my time and effort.

I'm really not sure what the problems are, it's working completely as advertised for me. My Blackberry is also on a BES, my wife's is not. No issues for me whatsoever, the only issue for her was the IT Policy/Browser error when accessing an old bookmark (all other sites are fine). Emails arrive a lot faster than with BIS.
I think it's great.
