Step 1 – Exporting the Appleby Root Certificate

Recently, in order to get my Motorola Q to connect to our Exchange server via SSL, I needed to manually load our domain root certificate onto the device. Here’s how:

  1. In IE, go to Tools – Internet Options
  2. Under Content, click Certificates
  3. Under Trust Root Certification Authorities, highlight the most recent Appleby Certificate and click Export.
  4. Click Next
  5. Choose DER encoded binary X.509, click Next
  6. Choose a file name and location. Click Next
  7. Click Finish

Step 2 – Download Certificate installer from Microsoft.

Step 3 – Load Certificate into your device

  1. In File Manager on your Q, create a folder called ‘storage’
  2. Using your SD card, Bluetooth or ActiveSync, copy the files from steps 1 and 2 to the storage folder (I used Bluetooth)
  3. Within File Manager on your Q, browse to the storage folder and run the executable.
  4. Choose the certificate as prompted and finish
