BlackBerry Smartphones unable to access youtube on wifi

Hello

I recently got BIS activated on my blackberry bold 9780. I have wifi at home, which I use for faster navigation. I have two questions around that.

When I connect the device with wifi, is it possible to know (or set) what connection is used for communication (BIS or wifi)?

When I turned off the radio and keep only wifi on, I am able to browse all the pages except youtube.com. With youtube, I get an error message "cannot visit a web page when the radio is off. Please put the radio in the market, and then try again"

Suppose I'm abroad without any intention to pay stratospheric roaming charges, is it possible to make the unit runs in wifi?

Thank you for your contributions.

Kind regards

Aurore

If connection network and Wi - Fi are present, your phone will default the WiFi automatically.  To do this, connect to a Wi - Fi network and on your home screen, follow manage connections > Service status.  If you look under BlackBerry Internet Service, you should indicate a Wi - Fi connection.

Navigation via the Wi - Fi should work for youtube, as well as other sites.  You have your data on Services?  In later versions of OS, you should be able to navigate even with disabled Data Services, but let's switch to see what is happening.  From your home screen, follow the connection management > networks and connections > Mobile network and make sure that data Services is defined on it.  Try this and report with your results.  If all else fails, remove the battery while your phone is on and then replace it.  Who has been known to fix several problems.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to access Internet in WiFi hotspots such as Starbucks

    Ok.  I've scoured the forums here and almost everywhere possible on the net with over some luck to find an answer for almost a month.  I am currently on the cards by Fido. I bought a BB curve about a month ago because I was told that it has built in WiFi.

    I have no problem connecting to my wireless home network.  Weather, that I secure it or not secure.  I have no problem connecting to any open or secured wireless network.  When I have a problem is when I go to places like Starbucks where there a login screen.  So, I'm unable to connect at all.

    Search for networks, it finds the network.  I select the network.  Then, he said that it is connected.  So I'll try to go on the internet and it gives me just a blank white screen.  Now I find that my BlackBerry is just a useless paperweight because mainly I got to use in Starbucks coffee shops, since that is where I am much of the time.

    I tried to go to bell.ca and see if I could access it like this (as I read somewhere to try this), still no luck.  My question is, why would I be said that it has built in wifi, if it only works on some networks?  It is able to be used on networks that have a login screen or is not able to?  And there at - it something I am doing wrong?  It shows the name of bell's access point when it says connected.  And I made sure that I put it in wireless mode.  I had other devices (Palm Pilot) who had no problems to connect.  What is the built in wifi point if it does not work on all wifi networks?

    Ultimately what I want to know, is how to get my BlackBerry to bring up the pages of connection of these "hot spots"?  Weather in Starbucks, libraries, other cafés etc. ?

    I can't guarantee that it will work, but it is worth trying.  After you open your browser to connect to a wifi hotspot, press the BB Menu key and select Options and choose the Configuration of the browser.  Then, with the browser setting, try to set it to "Hotspot browser."

    Who help me?  Otherwise, let me know and I'll see if I can get my Storm2 to connect to Starbucks or other hotspot later today.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to access the calendar

    I have a Blackberry Storm phone and while I was delighted by his performance and functionality I recently had the following problem.
    When I press the calendar icon, the unit freezes. I have to press the home button for at least three times to release the freezer unit, and then I am able to select another function. The calendar does not display and I can't open this function via the Menu button either.
    I synchronize my phone with my laptop using the Device Manager and everything seems fine synchronization.
    My calendar seems to sync very well also. He is said to be a updated.
    I have a number of appointments I need access when I'm out and about and the timing of freezing is a pain.
    Can you please help me.

  • BlackBerry Bold 9700 smartphones - unable to access the e-mail account configuration

    9700 OS 6 on ATT

    The problem: the email accounts through the icon of the installer cannot access.  Configuration - mail accounts.  I can highlight the e-mail accounts in the Setup menu, but can't open it.  I can open all other options in the Setup menu

    I had this 9700 for 2 years and my configuration of e-mail account and operational full-time.  My email has been hacked and I fixed that on my desktop CPU but my 9700 will still not receive or send emails.  I did the following:

    1. Reset the battery removal
    2. Deleted service books

    Everything I could find on correcting my email on the 9700 account is that I have to reset my email from my 9700 account information.  Unfortunately, I can not access account configuration menu email form.  Help please.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry ID - unable to access the Web Login site

    I have problems logging into App World on the Web site. When I click on loggin it brings me to the BlackBerry ID url that shows the site cannot be displayed or problem loading page due to the connection has expired.

    I tried to go through the site ID BlackBerry (BlackBerry - BlackBerry ID) and App World Store (BlackBerry App World - home page), but I still have this problem. I have tried different browsers (IE 8, Firefox, Chrome, Opera) but no luck.

    App World works very well on my BlackBerry but unable to loggin on the Web portal.

    I tried to contact RIM via Twitter but had no solutions of their own.

    * Update
    I contacted the RIM through my wireless support and discovered his works at their end. I contacted my friend and he was able to connect to the site. There must be something with my ISP connection.

    * Update 2

    I contacted my ISP and they said that they can access the login page of the App World. I tried my VPN connection and it works. I still don't understand why I can't access it without VPN

    I need to know what prevents it from my computer. Well, I'm done.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones use Storm 2 as PDA WiFi-Connected (without telephone service)?

    RESOLVED:
    See the second post in this thread for the solution (thanks to wiggler forum member)

    ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

    [I know I am a "retarded" for even bringing this place, but we'll just go beyond the part and talk about what I really want to know here ]

    My wife and I went to an Android (Bionic) for me and an iPhone (4 s) for her. However, his old phone (Storm 2) has recently been replaced because his former 1 storm went wrong on her... and now, since my father thought finally get something to replace his old (not to mention, broken and unusable) Palm device, we thought we might as well give him the Storm 2 and see if it'll work out for what he wants.

    Here's the deal about my father and his PDA... already has a cell phone, so he won't move up to a smart phone, because he does not want to pay the extra money every month just to get a PDA phone when he probably never really use the data service much and all that.

    He wants a phone just to be a phone, and he also wants a PDA... just for the PDA part.

    So, I thought, very well... If he is not willing to move completely in the modern era, then we can at least give him something he can synchronize with Outlook (it works... I already tried) to have its calendar and contacts with him all the time (which it is not able to do with his simple mobile).

    So what I know is that it's possible, at least in a very limited sense... I have the Storm 2 sync with Outlook.
    However, here's my problem... for a reason, even if the wifi card appears to connect to the wifi here in their home access point, it is not actually get an IP address and can't get out on the internet with the browser integrated into all.

    My question is this...
    Is it because it is not possible (i.e. RIM has configured to disable the card wifi within the unit while there is no mobile phone service connected), or who should run, and I should watch more in the sense of something wrong at the level of the home network?

    The reason why I think that it could be something awkward like that within the device itself, it is my new Android and iPhone of the wife are able to connect to the network wireless home here very well.

    Sorry for such a long thing, goofy needs help, but I thought it is a good starting point. If anyone has ideas and is willing to help, please chime.

    p.s. I am a computer scientist. So I have that aspect covered... at least you do not work with a complete * beep * if you jump here.

    I thought about it. I did a search on google for the specific message I saw in 'wi - fi tools' (which was "no longer valid"ip address ") and found this thread...
    http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/other-BlackBerry-smartphones/IP-address-no-longer-valid/TD-p/...

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to update BlackBerry App World on Bold 9700

    I use a BlackBerry Bold 9700 BlackBerry OS version 5.1.0.121 with BlackBerry Device Software version 5.0.0.442.

    When I click on the BlackBerry App World on my camera icon, I get the following message:

    "To continue to use BlackBerry App World, you must upgrade your current version. For more information, please visit www.blackberry.com/appworld/support. »

    So, I click on the upgrade button. My BlackBerry browser then launches automatically and tries to open the "'http://appworld.blackberry.com ' page." However, whenever I tried this, the page may not load in Black Berry browser and remains off. I tried to leave my phone for increments of 10-15 minutes to load the page, but after several attempts, I was never able to open the page successfully. I still get a blank page.

    So, I visited the next page on my desktop: http://ca.blackberry.com/apps/app-world/download.html.

    I tried the first method of sending the URL on my device, but it ended up with the same result described above when I tried to access the URL that was sent to me. The BlackBerry browser displays a blank page.

    I then tried the second method described on http://ca.blackberry.com/apps/app-world/download.html. I connected my device to my computer via a USB cable and clicked on the download, it affects today by following the instructions on the page. But, when I clicked on the button, I was led to a "Mode not available" page that says the following:

    "Downloads via a USB connection are not enabled for this product. Please visit our mobile download site using the browser of your BlackBerry® smartphone. »

    So my problem is cyclical. The page that I need to access the site to download the App World can not load in my BlackBerry browser and I can't download the product via USB either. This seems to be a bug, and I want to report it to Research In Motion.

    If anyone has any advice on how to solve this problem, it would be much appreciated.

    The solution described on http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-World/Can-t-upgrade-BB-World-I-think/m-p/2485451 solved this problem. Thank you, sdgardne!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to put in place the BBM

    Bought a blackberry curve 9300 with a friend and had the phone unlocked the phone and put in my sim card. Everything works except the BBM. I get the "insufficant wireless coverage or your connection to the wireless network is disabled" mean exactly? I have 100 MB of data on my plan with virgin mobile, but im unable to access my BBM, HELP PLEASE

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    All data plans are not created equal... BBM is an exclusive service of BB, requiring a subscription to a data specifically appropriate plan to activate it. If, for example, you have a "generic" data plan, then that would not activate BBM. You must have a specific BB data plan and that which is sufficient to allow BBM. But only your mobile service provider can answer the question of whether BBM should or should not work under your specific data plan.

    Good luck!

    But I am unable to connect to one of the messenger applications that are installed on the phone when I am connected with the same WI - FI connection.

    Yahoo, google, msn, aol, etc., that each of them do not work!

    I know im putting the good info, but I get the error message is...  "Service not enabled for this handheld".

    Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem, so I will be able to use my applications of instant messaging via a Wi - FI?

    To access the IM or just about any BlackBerry application you must have Blackberry data plan. It is a necessary requirement for all.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones can not access Media card with BB Desktop or Media Sync 9700

    The other day I received a Reburbed Bold 9700 update.

    I use Ver 6 Deskstop OS and the 9700 is running device code latest version 5.

    I have a Kingston 4 GB media card that I know is in place because the 9700 recognizes it and when I go to files and select the media card, I can see all the files on the card and when I take a picture it is written on the card so I know that memory is very good and he sees the 9700.

    The problem I have is BB Deskstop or latest version of Media Sync to see so I can transfer files to and from my PC and the media card.

    The error message that I receive on the two applications, it's that I have to turn on mass storage Mode.  When I look at my memory settings:

    Compression - enabled

    Map of media Support - on

    Mass Storage Mode Support - on

    Auto enable mass storage Mode when connected - Yes

    I formatted the card successfully on the BB.

    I tried another card memory (2 GB) and also properly formatted as well.

    I also tried another USB cable into another USB port.

    I had a BB hard reset by pulling on the battery... several times.

    I had another before Blackberrys and have never had a problem of access to the media card.  I would have thought that it is easier on the 9700.

    I did search endlessly on the Web and saw other people with similar problems but many were so simple that the card is not seated properly and it also had the symptom that the BB is not recognizing the media card.  My BB recognize media cards and use them, but I can't access the card through my PC.  I understand that I may not see a pendrive pop up in Windows Explorer, but I can't understand why the BB Desktop or Media Sync cannot access.

    I know that both of these applications communicate to the BB cause I get requests for passwords and the desktop, I can view all my applications and I used to update the device until the last OS level during the troubleshooting process.

    I just wanted to see if anyone has experience this problem and has tips, if not I will contact AT & T or go into a local store to see if they can help.  I just think I'm missing something that I can take care off instead of my own.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Have you tried to connect the device on another computer?  If another computer to recognize the device, it may just be a case of bad USB drivers on your computer.

    Here are some KB articles that may be able to help:

    KB19717 - BlackBerry smartphone is not detected as a USB mass storage device when connected to a computer

    KB10312 - impossible to display the map of support using the BlackBerry smartphone

    You also need to remove the USB ports on your computer (using Device Manager), and then restart the computer to reload the correct drivers.

    An alternative to this is to simply use a microSD card reader which allows you to use the microSD as a flash drive.

    I hope that this info is another starting point for you!
