BlackBerry Smartphones help please - cursor does not not while browsing internet

Hello

My Curve 8520 not long ago and fear I'm kinda a dinosaur techno so please bear with me! Wonder if anyone can help with this.

While browsing the internet my "slider" has suddenly stopped working. My "cursor" - the small black arrow - is still there but when hover over an area of research for example and "click on" my trackball that nothing happens, even if the little hand symbol appears on a link if I "click" the trackball that nothing happens. I discovered I can press return when the hand appears and it goes on the link, but this is unnecessary when only the arrow appears.

Any assistance received with gratitude

Ken

Its the kind of thing that could possibly be fixed by a battery pull.

With the BB powered, remove the battery and keep it for a few minutes. Let us know how you go.

  • BlackBerry smartphones HELP! "BOLD" does not accept password

    Hi all

    I have a big problem with my "BOLD" (German) 9700 BB.

    As I took on my jacket this morning it does not accept the password to unlock the screen.

    I thought it was me, so I tried again and again led attempts 3/10, 4/10, 5/10...Normally there are stars, so you won't see the pass, now its clear letters and numbers? More: top-right corner it showes EN then maybe this past German to English settig (I don't have it-on lens)

    I am now 9/10, the screen asking me to enter 'blackberry' but I am learning that if it doesn't hurt once more all on the Phanoe will be deleted which would be a nightmare that I don't have a backup...!

    an a German forum about someone with the same problem 'translate' pass numbers (1111) in letters (YYYY) as his apparently English keyboard - I did (get low), but it did not work?

    Someone at - it p l e a s e!

    Thans, Felix

    Great!

    But again, if I want to type something in, clearly shown figurs/numbers, rather than the usual stars that makes me feel theres something wrong...

    Yes, it is normal to show you the characters you type, and it normally occurs after 5 wrong password entered.

    I just plugged it up tho my pc and after the beginning of the BBdesktop, he showed a popup saying:

    "you know that you only have one shot left. After that, all your data will be deleted.

    What is strange: in the title of this popup, he says: BB Bold 9700 - PIN 22BEE12C - what is it? do I type?

    You has not answered my question earlier if you have alternate characters or numbers in your password?

    If so, should we ALWAYS register the pressed ALT key first to this number?

  • BlackBerry Smartphones help please! I can not open E: / / or F: / / readers and I can sync folders and media files

    Hello world! I got my BlackBerry Torch 9800 on 6 September. On 8 September, I tried to synchronize media files and it was not work. I opened the back cover and there is no MicroSD card. I return to the TELUS store on 16 September and they give me the microSD card. I put it in my cell phone. When I go into Options - devices - storage, the "enable compression" and "media card" are controlled. I see the applications-free space 286,5 MB storage, integrated Total media storage and 3.5 GB of free space and storage card Media-Total and free 7.3 GB. I have also format and fix them both. I try to remove/replace my Media Cardin, to remove/replace my cell phone battery, there is nothing to do. Whatever I do, I can not open E:: / / or F: / / readers (I have new for formatting, I try and it does not work) and I can't synchronize the folder and multimedia files. I see a time "the memory of the device and the media are unavailable because the mass storage is in use". I use the v6.0.0.448 version.

    It is correct. I have rename E: / / and F: / / and it's work.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB app world does not appear on new Torch 9850.

    Blackberry app world is not installed on my new torch. I tried to go to the website of bb to download, but I can't find anything on how to download app world. I already tried a reload of the operating system. Help, please.

    If you have a hardware problem, then nothing what to do with the software or operating system will not help. But, at a distance of the internet, there is no way to really diagnose a hardware problem... rather, only to guide you to things to try which will govern the other causes, leaving only hardware like your the most likely cause. See how news of the device is for you, you can not cope and return instead of your place of purchase for formal support and (hopefully) replacement.

    But, if you want to try, then I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

    It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, see what happens.

    If the behavior continues, then well... think what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

    But if the behavior continues mode without failure, you may need to consider more drastic measures - WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload and the process of reloading OS 'skeleton '. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup of your PC... Please see the Backup link in my sig auto on this post for instructions.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you want to try at the OS level, then the easiest way is, on a PC (you can not do on MAC):

    (1) make sure that you have a current backup and your BB complete... you can find the instructions at the link in my auto-sig below.

    2) uninstall all the BB OS packages from your PC,

    (3) make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

    (4) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package you want:

    • http://us.BlackBerry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    • If all you want are the levels of BONE, it is first sorted by carrier - the carrier supports, your search will be fast. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To really get the package up-to-date OS for your BB, you need to dig through and find all businesses that support your specific model BB and then compare the BONE levels they support.

    5) remove all copies of the SELLER on your PC. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    6 (a) to change your level of BB OS installed (at level or lower), you can run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC.

    6 (b) or, for recharging your BB OS level installed as well to change, work around the Desktop software and use the CHARGER. EXE directly, through step 2 in this process:

    If, during the process of 6a or 6 b, your BB has an error '507', simply unplug the USB of the BB cord and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try the "skeleton OS Reload procedure" in an attempt to circumscribe the precise causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    You may also use these tips:

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Trackpad and keyboard does not.

    Hello. I have a Curve 8520, I got it almost a year ago. Yesterday, an APP ERROR 523 appeared on my screen, and I discovered that an application crashed. So I tried to improve my OS from 4 to 5. He succeeded, but I couldn't scroll press OK. After a couple of hours trying to scroll down, I pressed the OK button. But my trackpad and keyboard does not work well, because when I pressed the home button my BB does not show the home screen, instead, it shows me my directory. Please help me with my problem, suggestions are appreciated.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    From what you describe, I would recommend a clean OS reload.

    At the top of each forum device, there should be some 'sticky' threads dealing with the level of the OS available for each model. Please use those as a reference as you go along.

    From a PC, you can install any compatible OS package (for example, for your BB model exact number) of a BB via this procedure:

    Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC. You can even use a different OS package carriers simply insert, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, a file named PROVIDER. XML. remember that you remove from your PC, no matter what other packages devices OS BB as having more than one installed on the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

    • KB19915 How to perform a clean reload of the smartphone BlackBerry using BlackBerry Desktop Software application software

    You can also get the BBSAK (BBSAK.ORG) utility and use it to completely erase your BB (the result will be a 507) and then properly reload your operating system.

    Good luck and let us know!

  • Edge of blackBerry Smartphones and UMA signal does not

    Over the few weeks I noticed that my phone is stuck on the GPRS network all the time and find EDGE or UMA - I can find my house through the wireless section hub but can not connect to it - sometimes with the connection completed and now in the last days that I can not connect via my browser , but all my emails and sms work perfectly - have returned my phone service books, but with no success.

    Please help as I love my blackberry and feel lost without her, when she does not correctly.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Whenever random strange behaviors creep, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    Best!

  • BlackBerry smartphones my BBM chat does not

    I had BBM 5.0.33 and upgraded to the BBM 5.0.55 yesterday and today someone I messaged so I answered, and in the chat next to my message, the icon is stuck at Red mini clock instead of going to the box. I tried to send messages to all of my contacts but I get the same result. Soft rebooted my blackberry, but it did nothing.

    Very frustrated, because how BBM is one of the essential aspects to owning a blackberry, for me anyway.

    help please

    With the BlackBerry device powered time, remove battery for a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

    A 'soft reboot' is not the same as the above.

  • BlackBerry smartphone WiFi displayed but does not

    Hello

    on my BlackBerry Curve 9320 normally I have a very good WiFi connection because my router is directly beside me. For two days, I have the problem that, when I'm on Wifi, it does not run any connection (not even the browser); on the mobile network, everything works fine. I restarted my phone several times, but the problem is still there. It's a little crazy because I got the phone only 1 months ago. Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    Remove the battery while your phone is on, then replace it. Then restart your wireless router.

    Try these two steps and post back with your results.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones new mail icon does not

    I have a strange behavior suddenly with one of the e-mail on my Blackberry "BOLD" accounts.  The account is a gmail account and never had any problems until today.  I noticed this morning that e-mail has not been pushed, despite the fact that new messages were in this mailbox.  I removed and re-added the account, as well as return service directories.  Now, mail seems to take place at the account again, but the new mail indicator (red asterisk) does not work for the account, even if I get a new mail on the main 'Messages' envelope icon indicator when the mail comes in this account.  Any ideas?  Thank you!

    Well now that you problem has been resolved. Please solve the thread by accepting the solution.
