Blackberry Exchange Syncronisation “Function OpenFolder Failed”

I was trying to synchronise my blackberry contacts with our Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 using Blackberry Desktop. Upon the setting up and syncronisation the following error appeared “Function OpenFolder Failed” To resolve this perform the following

2. Delete the Intellisync folder.
3. Close and reopen BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
4. In the Intellisync application, reconfigure synchronization settings as needed using the Configure PIM or Configure Synch button.
