Smartphones blackBerry desktop software installation problems

Hi all!

Just got my first BB - the Curve 8330.

I am trying to install the Desktop Manager software (version 4.5) from the CD included with the phone (Sprint).  I tried twice with no success and the same result - it hangs or freezes towards the end of the installation.  It is said it should "take several minutes", but an hour?  I didn't know that it would take too long.

I would try to cancel the installation, but nothing would happen and I would end up having to force its closure with the Manager tasks.  The icons would display, but the program itself would not do much.  Due to the partial installation, I couldn't uninstall it or restart the installation.  You had to do system restore to get rid of it.

I did it twice!  So now, I am currently downloading version 5.0 from this site (without Media Manager which seems to cause a problem) and see how it goes.

Has anyone else has this problem?  Should I have waited longer?

After much frustration, I tried one more thing.  After having been suspended for three hours, I restarted my computer (using the power button on the machine, because no matter what other way would not have worked).  I rebooted with the progress of installation still bar top and "running".

Then I ran the software disc and tried to install again.  He acknowledged that I had partially installed the DM software and he gave me the ability to edit, repair and another thing (don't remember).  I chose to fix it.  This completed the installation process!

When I made this installation, I did it without the Media Manager.  After the "repair", I could go back install Manager media without any problem.

What a relief to be able to back up my BB!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software installation problem

    I had a problem with Roxio Media Manager constantly want to reinstall.  So I corrected this problem and and uninstalled the Blackberry software. Then I tried to re - install Blackberry Desktop software so that I can sync my contacts on my computer at home.  I tried this from a downloaded version 4.6 and with the version on my Blackberry CD.  Same problem with both.

    The installation starts and claims of language, then installation starts for a few seconds.  Then I get this message:

    Error opening installation log file.  Verify that the specified log file location exists and is writable.

    I can't get past this message.  He didn't tell where is the location of the log file.  Other installations of software, it's only the Blackberry software that will not be installed.  I tried to rename CProgram Files\Common InstallShield and make it read/write, but this install always fails with the same message.

    Any ideas to try?  Nowhere else can I ask for help?

    Andy

    Thanks, that worked.

    I unzipped the file, then I opened a cmd window and manually run msiexec with your Blackberry msi file.  I have added a flag/l to set the log file to a local file FichierJournal.txt and everything went well.

    Maybe you specify a problematic log file name, at least for my computer?

    Anyway, this new version of the Blackberry software works very well to keep my home contacts updated with my work contacts.  I'm glad that I was able to install without the Roxio media manager.  This program made me mad.

  • The Smartphone blackBerry Desktop Manager installation problems

    OK, this may seem a stupid question, so please bear with me...

    I have some trouble installing the Desktop Manager software, version 4.2, for my 8320.  I am running Windows Vista.  When I install the program, everything seems to be okay.  I get no error message or anything.  He goes through the whole installation process, and then says it installed successfully and I click on the button "Finish".

    But after the installation, I can't find the program anywhere on my computer.  It does not appear in the framework programmes.  It does not appear in my C:\ drive under program files.  I tried to search my hard drive for "blackberry", "research in motion" 'desktop manager', 'RIM', etc. and he doesn't find anything.  But, when I go to "Programs and features" in my control panel, "Blackberry v4.2.2 for handheld wireless 8320" appears on the list of programs, and I only have the option of where to uninstall.  What is the problem?

    I have internet and can not find an answer.  I tried the fix javascript.dll I found (which was for the error messages, I don't get), I tried to disable the user account control, I uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times, the disc and the Web site.  All to nothing does not.

    I'm going nuts... it's probably an extremely simple, obvious answer.  If someone could help, I would be VERY happy.

    Thank you!

    Thanks, I knew it was something obvious!  When I went to this link before, I was using "Blackberry Curve 8320" in this list, which gave me the 4.2.2 version.  I never even checked this list for version 4.6, b/c I thought by selecting the 8320 would give me the most recent version of the software for my phone.  Don't think.

    Thanks for the help!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BlackBerry Desktop Software could not validate your update to the BlackBerry device...

    Hello. I had my blackberry for a little over a year. It's a Bold 9650. After I have updated to OS 6, everything was going fine except for the fact that I have lost password Mole and Brick Breaker. Small problems, I know. But when the day consists of a lot of waiting around, believe me, these two helps. in any case, I looked on various forum how to recover them and more expected to open the Fund Manager and go to the list of applications and simply check out these two games and to update. I did that, but when I went to update, I had to wait a while because he loaded [yes I use a mac], and then this message pop up would be "BlackBerry Desktop Software doesn't have to validate your device BlackBerry - abandonment update install due to failure of the validation.» Some packages contained unsatisfactory dependencies. "So now I can't update my phone at all with anything. What can I do to solve this problem without doing a full cleaning [which I don't know how do either, I see a lot of people talking about it]? I just want to be able to update my phone.

    Hey acabungc,

    Welcome to the community of BlackBerry Support Forums.

    This error is caused by a third-party application on the BlackBerry. This application will need to be removed and then you can re-installed games.

    To find out which application is causing the problem go to/Library/Application Support / BlackBerryDesktop / Logs and open the daily log on the Mac.

    And you will find a line in the newspaper that said: abandonment of the install because of unmet dependencies for packages: ((Application name))

    That lists the name of the application.  Then you can remove this application from BlackBerry.  Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • BlackBerry Bold 9900 of the Smartphone Blackberry Desktop Software - impossible to synchronize the calendar

    I can't update my Blackberry 9900 calendar when using BB desktop software.

    Hello ckiefe,

    Welcome to the BlackBerry support community.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software freezes with the message "Action Engine loading Configuration.

    I have Windows 7 Professional. My Outlook profile is stored on an Exchange Server and my Blackberry had previously beeng synchronization with Outlook in this configuration for nearly a year without problem.

    Recently, the software freezes the message 'Engine Action loading configuration' and is unrecoverable. I tried the following things to remedy the situation:

    (1) adjust the settings Organizer not to synchronize anything except the date & time. Still happens

    (2) remove all data from the device using Desktop software and try to resynchronize. Same problem

    (3) uninstall and reinstall Blackberry Desktop Software and try to sync with all of the original data and the empty deleted data Blackberry. The same problem.

    (4) tried to wipe off the full blackberry using Cmdr of JL, reinstalling the operating system. In this scenario, I can synchronize addresses, but once I sync calendar problems from ever happening and I can't ever sync it again (including later by deselecting the option of calendar.

    At that time I spent hours scouring Google for help and try the above items. This was a disaster for me because I rely on synchronization had given for work and have already from lack of things.

    I do not think there is something wrong with the Blackberry, because it works very well and works perfectly well after re - charging a fee, OS, etc.

    I tried to play with the balls of support, but because the software freezes before can synchronize calendar, there is nothing in the log that indicates if there is a file corrupted in the event calendar. Nothing won't change significantly in my calendar between synchronization worked and the day that he didn't.

    I tried searching the Blackberry forums and have found some info, but nothing useful. RIM does not provide phone numbers and support AT & T has continually demonstrated himself as worthless during my time with them.

    Are there resources left at all that I could try to move beyond this issue, don't waste any more time and be able to solve the problem?

    Thanks for reading and for any input that you are willing to offer.

    Although no one helped me with this I could help I put the steps that I followed down here so that if someone comes on this page of our friend Google, they will be able to try the same thing:

    I ran 'Fix' on the memory card in the Blackberry
    Ran CCleaner on my PC to clean the registry
    Reset synchronization in the Desktop Manager settings

    Finally finally I'm the synchronization again.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software said 'connection '.

    I'm trying to back up my blackberry and it keeps saying for the last 30 minutes connecting to the right of the bottom of the screen.  It shows my camera but I can't click on the tab now backup and when I go to configure settings it tells me to connect a device.

    Can someone tell me what is happening?

    I currently have a "App Error 200" on my screen, and I'm trying to get rid of... is that may impact my connection? and I can do/use to get rid of him, if I can't access my blackberry desktop software?

    I have the blackberry bold 9900

    You will not be able to backup of the device with the app error 200 appearing.

    You should start your BlackBerry in Mode safe and remove all third-party apps or themes that you could add, starting with the most recent added, first of all.

    Article ID: KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode

    Then, on the BlackBerry, click Options > device > application management and remove these apps, you think that could be the culprit.

    Restart the BlackBerry again and see if the error app has disappeared.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac

    I am trying to download Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac.  When I click on download it asks whether to save the file.  When I click on Yes, the download box appears and indicates the place of download.  At the end of the download, nothing happens.  The download box sits right on my screen and no other guests occur.  There is no sign of any Blackberry file in the Applications folder on my MacBook pro.  Site Web de Blackberry for downloads screen does not change.

    My feeling is that I somehow need to 'install' the uploaded file, but am at a loss to know how to do this.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Assuming you are using Safari, the default location for downloaded files is the folder downloads. You should find the installer downloaded it. If this is not the case, check where you download the file and look in this folder. The file you're looking for should be named "BlackBerry Desktop Software.dmg". Double-click it to mount the disk and then image to launch the installer.

    You must run the Setup program to install the Desktop on Mac software, it is not just an app that you slip into your Applications folder.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software 6.0.1 does not not on Win7

    Hello

    I installed the latest version of Blackberry Desktop Software (version 6.0.1) on my laptop that runs Windows 7 (with all latest updates). When I opened the "Desktop Manager", the Desktop Manager it just hangs, does not receive in front of a white screen it shows in the application. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times and always does the same thing.

    Anyone know what could be causing this?

    Hi all

    I just got a storm and the first 2 days the software worked very well, even if a bit slow. 2 days ago, he has ceased to work where once you link the blackberry desktop software turns white'ish (you can still see the icons for the media, etc.), it stays like that and don't let you do anything. The blackberry has the computer / blackberry on the screen and the computer says his Secretary, but the desktop computer will not let you.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Desktop Software deleted my Contacts

    Hello.. It's my first post

    I just bought my Blackberry Tour (used) a few weeks ago and was not connected to my computer since I bought it, so I was a little surprised when I plugged it in today, set up updates of Blackberry Desktop Software and found that everything was completely erased.

    I've tried everything. Connection without the battery did not work, and he just asked me to install updates everywhere. After reinstalling the operating system, everything is back to normal now, except for the fact that all my contacts have disappeared.

    Given that I have does no backup for them earlier, is anyway I can get back them? This is my first Blackberry so I am a little confused.

    Thanks for any help!

    Yuck.

    I always advise people to make a manual backup of their BlackBerry before ANY upgrade. Your carrier and notice of the RIM must be specific to this topic. The upgrade process "should" do its own backup at first, before the actual upgrade.

    Check your PC, the search for any file ending with "*.ipd"... normally the backups are performed to your My Documents folder. Check and see if any IPD file is there, in particular dated today.

    If so, you have a backup.

    Then, using Desktop Manager > restore.

    Hello

    There are some possibilities... but why not try it to see if it clears things upwards:

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

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

    (3) download and install on your computer, the BB OS package that is currently running on your BB:

    (4) If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. 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

    (5) now run the Desktop software and connect your BB... the Basic apps should now be displayed.

    Note that you can also use this update of your BB to any specific OS package you want. When replace you in step 3 above, the BB OS package you want to install on your BB, then when you get to the end, the software should offer the operating system package you have installed on your PC. If, during the process, your BB votre BB a '507' error, simply unplug the power cord of the BB USB and reinsert it. do nothing else... This should allow the installation to continue.

    Good luck and let us know!
