restoring info on phone through backup assistant via computer
luchando
Newbie

My son has a blackberry bold and he recently had so many failed attempts at his password that the phone started to wipe all the data.  He took the battery out but then placed it back in so all his data is erased.  He thinks he has backup assistant but wanted to see if he can sync it through the computer.  Does any one have any answers on how to do this?
