Blackberry 10 wont backup

I keep getting an error msg saying that the device is not connected properly (it is) and I have tried rebooting it and the computer but I keep getting the same error. Yes, I am using Blackberry Link as well and made sure everything was updated to the current version as well.
I need to back up my info because I am already having other issues with it and the store will probably just exchange it.
Thanks in advance.
Mel

Well it's games and apps that can be re downloaded. I read on other forums some side loaded apps or bad apps mess up the backup process. Also another post said after 670ish mb it won't backup. My contacts and settings/entries were the most important

Blackberry wont boot (No USB)

Hey,First time poster.
I Have a blackberry curve,USB port broke,i made my own charger for the battery,lately my blackberry wont boot,it boots 3/4 of the way,i cant reset os becuase you need a usb,its a blackberry curve 8520,for some reson i cant go into safe mode!HELP ME!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
If you cannot get into Safe Mode and also cannot use the USB port, then there really is nothing you can do. Safe Mode is required for diagnostics, and the USB is required for attempted resolutions. Catch-22 time 2 for you!
Sorry...but it is what it is.
Good luck!

Time Machine wont backup

I bought an external hard drive and put files from my old computer on it before I bought my iMac. Now I want to use it for backing up my iMac but Time Machine wont backup to it without erasing the contents. Is there a way around this? Or will I have to buy a new EHD? Or is there a way to backup to cyberspace?
Thanks

The drive is probably set up with the MBR (Master Boot Record) partition map, that Windoze uses. To use it for TM you must completely reformat it, which will erase it. If you have enough space (or can borrow another external temporarily), you can copy the data off, reformat it, then copy the data back.
TM works best with it's own, exclusive space, so you should partition the drive anyway. If you're going to use the other data with a PC, make the other partition MS-DOS (FAT).

N80 PC Suite wont backup phone (connection lost)

After i received my phone and played with it a bit i installed the Nokia PC Suite and made a backup successfully
Now after a couple of weeks use i thought it would be a good idea to make an up-to-date backup of the phone, however now when i try and backup the phone contents it gets to 1% and says "Connection to phone lost. Reconnect and try again"
Now it works fine if i try and backup only the memory card, but wont backup the phone contents
I've tried it on another PC and it has the same problem. I've tried re-installing PC Suite from the CD and the web, updating to the latest version, re-installing N80 cable drivers etc
Any ideas why it no longer wants to work?
N80 Generic v4.0623.0.42, N80 Orange v4.0623.0.41, 6288 Generic v5.92, SE K750i

Hi cracker1979,
I think its a good idea to try out a later version and/or log a call to Nokia on this.
In the mean time, as a workaround (but not as the eventual solution), you may want to backup you phone content to your miniSD at Menu, Tools, Memory card, Options & Backup phone mem.
Cheers. ^_^;

Re: iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer

Did you ever figure this out? I followed these instructions and it worked! May have had something to do with the old MobileMe program becoming obsolete. After you click "Finder", then "Go", then hold down "option" button, then click "library" folder, then follow folders as listed.   I also deleted the MobileMeSyncClient folder (found in the same location) since it is no longer in use either.

this works...
You   need to delete the MobilSync backup folder. I have a Mac. Went to   /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup and deleted the Backup   folder.
to   find your "library" folder you need to open "finder" then go to the top tool bar menu and open "go" then hold down the "option" button and   "library will appear in the "finder " menu on the left hand side...   cheers

My iPad wont backup to icloud

My iPad wont backup to icloud

Sync your notes to your iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud and turning Notes on. Then check icloud.com to confirm that your notes appear there. If they don't, your notes may belong to a non-iCloud account. Open the Notes app and tap Accounts, then check to see if the notes belong to the iCloud account. If they don't, you'll have to open them one by one and copy/paste the text into new notes created in the iCloud account in order to get them in iCloud.

Ipad wont backup to icloud

ipad wont backup to icloud and i have 35GB free space - it "behaves" like it is however the bar showing progress underneath doesnt move at all

Howdy okkuenlilli,
I suggest this article we have named iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992.
General troubleshooting
General information
iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
SettingsiCloud Backup settings are controlled on a per-device basis from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
To view Storage & Backup settings:
Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
Tap your device's name. From here you can:
View the size of your backups and see the storage used by each app.
Enable or disable Backup for each app.
Delete Backups.
Buy more storage.
If you're out of iCloud Storage space, you can apply several solutions:
Exclude Camera Roll and other large data from iCloud backups of your device by going to iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and choosing your device.
Remove some of the larger files on your device, such as large audio or video files, from your Camera Roll in order make more space.
Remove existing Backups.
Purchase more storage.
For more information about managing and using the Storage & Backup settings, see this article.
If an issue persists and you are not able to resolve it using the methods discussed in this article, contact iCloud Support for additional assistance.
If you have a specific error message, there is a section within the article to look that up.
All the very best,
Sterling

IPod wont backup, corrupt or not compatiable

sorry everyone, I thought I had this wrapped up. I found the folder they were hidden however, my ipod is still not recognizing where the backup folder is and I keep getting the same message:
iPod wont backup, corrupt or not compatiable
How do I get my ipod and backup folder to link up?
Thank you

What happens if you remov the backup files and then try to sync/backup?
The message is saying that the backup is mpt compatible with the iPod and one reason is that the backup is corrupted.
Just what are you try to do?

My blackberry wont ring anyone but it had full signal

my blackberry wont ring anyone but it had full signal its 8900

Not knowing what steps were included in "all the troubleshooting possible with Apple people," I'll suggest you give the phone a chance to reprovision your cellular account.
First turn off Wi-Fi. Then power off your phone. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the power off slider. Then slide to power off. Turn the phone back on. After the phone starts watch to see if No Serive is displayed. Hopefully after 15-30 seconds that will change to the name of your cellular service provider and finally indicate LTE or 4G as well as include some dots indicating signal strength. You can then turn Wi-Fi back on.

Blackberry wont power up

My blackberry wont power up, but there is a blue flashing light that often comes on. Please help what can i do???

Hi Kingy47,
Welcome to the community.
This may be happen because your battery has been drained.
You may try by pull out battery and plug your device with charger (Without inserting battery)
you will get a no battery sign (Wait for 5 to 10 mins), once you will get a no battery sign on your handheld, insert battery without unplugging charger.
Wait fro approx 5 to 10 mins.
This may help to come out of this issue.
Thanks..!!

Blackberry wont do anything after restarted

Blackberry froze so I restarted it however when it came back on, the screen lit up like normal but there was no signal and the tracker wont move. Nothing happens when I press any of the buttons, even when I try to turn it off, I have tried resetting it again however the same thing just happens again

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
I can't quite tell, but are you doing a full and proper battery pop reboot? Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Best!

Blackberry wont send/recieve calls and texts. Net apps and BBM working fine. Not battery, signal or credit problem.

My phone wont recieve texts or send SMS or phone calls. Have tried on many peoples phones, on different networks.
Have had this phone a couple of weeks. It was working fine until yesterday, now suddently when I attemp to call it says 'failed' and when i send tects they do not send. It wont recieve calls and tects from people who have tried in the same room.
I have this sim card years and have never had a problem before.
Untill yesterday I could call, text and recieve both just fine.
My BBM, app world and internet are working.
It is not a battery problem, it is charged.
It is not a credit problem, i have both free and actual credit.
it is not signal problem, the phone shows high signal, and other people on same network are working fine.
I have looked up simular problems, and attempted the solutions. Taking the battery out and resarting the phone does not change it, regestering the phone and sending service books did not fix the problem.
I have Blackberry Curve 8520, on Tesco pay as you go.
Any solutions? Please include instructions - i do not know how to find out what OS i am running, so if this is part of the solution please advise.

Hi Ammasay
Phone, SMS and MMS are all services supported by your wireless provider. Considering all of these features are not working, I would recommend contacting them to find out if there is a problem with your account or their services. BlackBerry features, such as BBM, BlackBerry App World, etc all use the BlackBerry network and thats why they are still working.
Thanks

Blackberry wont open on my mac

when i had a regular pc i used to plug my blackberry via its usb cord and a file will show, letting me copy pictures and songs from and into the blackberry.

SO plz could anyone help..i need to get all my pictures out from that blackberry

Have you tried calling the cell phone service provider in which you purchased the blackberry from? They are surely to be the most knowledgeable source about how to install the software, whether it be on a mac or a pc. Good luck
