Uninstall any previous OS on your computer and put install 4.5. I don't know why it isn't working for you even with 4.2 installed, DM usuallyrecognizes the newest update.
Anyway, also delete the XML/Vendor File located in Program Files ---> Common Files ----> Research in Motion ---> AppLoader
and be on your merry way.

Question for you guys... i guess i want an opinion really.
My brand new Pearl 8120 (2.5 weeks old) has been acting up already in terms of the battery - for about 3 days it wasn't wanting to charge unless i had theplug in just so, and then it wouldn't hard charge for more than 2 hours even just idling. Well, i ended up taking the battery out and putting it back in,and like magic it was working perfectly normal again. So it was fine for a few days, and then it started doing it again - so i did the same battery removal andreplacing trick and it seems to work fine again today.
Do you think i should get this replaced immediately or will it be okay? If so, is this covered under BB or ATT? (note: i don't have insurance on this, buti'm hoping since i just got it that it will be under some kind of warranty still?)

I'd just get a new battery altogether. I'm not sure if an AT&T store will cover it but RIM definitely will. Call AT&T customerservice and asked to be transferred to a BlackBerry specialist. The battery should be under warranty and it usually arrives in about a week. I don't thinkthey ask you to send back the old battery either. If you can live with this battery problem for the next week, you're good, you should receive it by then.
I had a battery issue not too long ago and bought a new one ($30

Tre - You are right...you do not have to delete the vendor file since it is an official release...I did mine yesterday and it worked fine...
Also, Try unistalling 4.2 from your pc via the control panel - add/remove programs..

Hope everything is fine with your phone though. I love the new look of the Address Book. The browser is going to take some getting used to though.

STORMI don't think you needed to delete the Vendor file, its just that when I installed the new OS on my PC, and it was in the middle of installing the update on my Curve, it got stuck on "Reading Programs" or something. So I just said eff it, canceled the update since it wasn't moving and deleted the .xml file as a pre-cautionary thing.
