BlackBerry Desktop won't start!

I have tried anything I can think of to open the desktop software and just get the same message, "BlackBerry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close." I can open device manager just fine, but not the desktop, even after I downloaded and installed the dotnetfx3.5, unzipped the 610._b034_multilanguage file and installed, and even tried to restart multiple times! Running Windows XP with Microsoft .Net 3.5, please HELP!!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please review these pages:
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/system_requirements.jsp
and ensure you fully meet the minimum system requirements. For instance, you said you are running XP...but, unless that's SP3, then you would not meet the requirements.
Good luck!

  • My desktop won't start

    I have a treo 680 unlocked and installed missing synch software on my new macbook pro leopard.  I started using the sync function and was getting used to the weird looking (compared to desktop on windows) desktop presentation when I noticed that I wass getting all kinds of duplication and even triplication on my syncs.  I ttied to solve that problem with help from missing sync but to no avail. I decide to try and start over. 
    So I uninstalled missing sync andI went back to my PC and cleaned up my handheld with my PC desktop.  I couldn't uninstall desktop for mac so I reinstalled missing sync and did a hot sync.  I then noticed I would have the same problem as i got a notice from missing sync that I had more than 5% sync to do.  I wondered how that could be because this was supposed to be a new sync with no info on my desk top. I stopped the hot sync function and tried to see what was going on by opening my desktop.  I tried it several times. I tried downloading mac desktop again and re-installing it.  That didn't work, I kept getting the message that I had the most recent version on my mac and that I couldn't re-install.  
    So that brings me to my original subject statement.  
    My desktop won't start so that I can clean everything ou and do a start over sync.  Please someone help!!!

    Has this ever been resolved?  It looks like it's 5 months old and I don't see any replies.  I saw this and immediately thought of the DEP(Data Execution Protection) feature that is a characteristic of Windows Vista.  If you go to your control panel,to system, to advanced system settings, and then click the settings button in the performance section, the DEP is the third thumnail to the right(should be the last one there).  This is where you can turn it on or off and add programs for it to ignore.
    However, usually when it's the DEP that kills a program unexpectedly, the operating system has usually made it known to the user that it was the DEP.

  • Blackberry Desktop Manager wont start

    I am SOOOO frustrated.
    I have installed the BB Desktop Manager software (never installed or used it before) and it has downloaded fine but it just wont open!! No errors, just nothing. Am getting really frustrated. 
    Any ideas?

    I am not sure I understand - are these instructions you have seen/been given?
    What is the context for your post? I have an issue with DM 6.02 and Windows 7 which is that DM just won't start, the only workaround I have found is to downgrade to 5.0.1 which is not ideal but does seem to work. It worked fine on XP but when I switched to Windows 7 it installed fine but then would not start up.

  • Blackberry 9220 won't start after updating OS

    My blackberry 9220 was perfectly working for the past 8months, after finding out that there's a new update for os, i tried updating mine. I fell asleep while updating my os that i didnt notice if the os was successfully updated bt wen i woke up in the middle of the night, my phone won't start. When i tried charging it, the red led light lights up then the initial screen where you see the "blackberry" word and load bar below it starts bt only flashes and turns off. It keeps repeating. I tried going to a phone technician but they said they cannot reformat my phone because it doesn't turn on or completely turn on in the first place.. What should i do? Please help me.

  • Blackberry desktop won't accept my password

    hi
    I finally installed blackberry desktop so that I could upload some music to my 9360.  When I hooked up my phone it asked for my password which I entered only it hasn't accepted it.  I'm now down to my final go and don't really want to end up wiping my phone, I know I probably should have stopped trying sooner but I was frustrated.
    It appears that the desktop software has changed my password, is there some sort of default it would have changed it  to or am I destined to lose all the data on my phone?
    Cheers
    Mark

    Hi mark2011,
    Welcome to the Support Community!
    There is no default security password for the BlackBerry® smartphone. Unless you are using a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server , the password can only be changed by first entering the correct password or by wiping the BlackBerry® smartphone.
    This KB article should help you with your password. "BlackBerry Desktop Manager or the BlackBerry smartphone does not accept the correct BlackBerry smartphone password" http://bbry.lv/KOgktf
    I hope this helps.

  • Blackberry desktop Manager not starting on Gateway Computer

    Can anyone help (Blackberry is struggling with this one). I recently purchased a new Gateway computer M- series, and have attempted to install versions 4.2.2, 4.3, 4.6 and each one of the installations completes just fine. when I launch the application, it starts long enough to flash on the desktop and disappears. This is making it very difficult to configure to sync with Outlook 2007. I'm also running Windows Vista. This has become a very frustrating and has gone on now for at least 2 weeks.

    hi Braddburm,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    It looks like the onboard VGA port gave out. Try to:
    1. Use a discrete graphics card to output your video (i.e. pci or low profile pci-e graphics card)
    2. If option 1 is not possible and you're considering a replacement machine, you will need a 3.5 HDD sata enclosure to convert the internal HDD to an external HDD to read the data on the new replacement machine.
    Best regards,
    neokenchi

  • My Mac Pro Desktop won't start

    I had been using Mac Pro Desktop since 2006, and it had been problemm free until today. Now, everytime I turn on the computer, and it would run for 20 seconds, and then it just stops. I need to hold the start buttom for a few second to turn it off.
    I didn't install any new updates for months and also didn't connection new external device.  Could you solve the problem for me?
    Thanks
    Edward

    Thanks.... I brought my Mac Pro to Apple Store Genius Bar earlier today, and the tech told me that the graphic card isn't working. He suggests me either to buy a new card by myself (cheaper option) or to have them to fix it for me. Since my Mac Pro is older (bought in 2006 and I believe it is the first generation), I wondered which graphic card I should buy. I am using DVI connection for my Apple Cinema HD Display monitor
    Thanks!

  • [Solved] plasma-desktop won't start by itself

    Not sure what I did but when I try to log in to KDE 4.5, via KDM, slash screen does it's thing, and then I end up with a session that doesn't have plasma-desktop. I have to run plasma-desktop from krunner (Alt+F2) to start it. How do I get it to start on its own again?
    EDIT: In trying to change KDE to use the raster graphics system I misspelled it. Dumb.

  • HP desktop won't start, red light flashing and beeping, loud fan

    Yesterday it was working just fine. I turned it off for the night and when I tried to turn it on this morning, a red light was flashing and beeping as well as the fan making a loud humming noise. I've read the the beeping and flashing means something. I didn't keep track of the number of flashes and beeps though. After the beeping and flashing I turned the computer off then back on. This time there was no red light, flashing, or beeping. Nothing appeared on the monitor either. After about 10-20 seconds of it being on, the fan started to hum really loudly again.
    It's an HP Compaq dc7900. I've only had it for about 3 months and it was fine up until now.
    Any help? Thanks.

    Hi
    I'v checked the specs for your HP and Acer machines and yes it will be fine to cross over RAM modules they are identical in speed and architecture . Please don't forget the last post about removing the sources of power before you go inside the PC to check RAM . Other thing is if your HP has more than one RAM module remove only one stick first and try to boot . If it still won't boot with that module take that one out and try to boot from the other before you look to swap over modules from Acer machine . Don't forget to re connect your monitor to see if you get display with one / two etc modules . Post me back your findings

  • G5 desktop won't start. Fans don't run

    I'm trying to fix a friend's G5 desktop, 1st generation. 1st LED comes on, 2nd LED comes on when I press start button. Power supply voltages are correct. Hard drive runs, but fans don't come on. I have power to fans. 5 and 12 volts. No beeps. Pressed SMU button as well, and nothing changes. Don't see any bulging caps. Someone else changed a few before I got it. Also jiggled RAM chips. Any ideas?? Thanks

    You can try switching the RAM around and running with one stick or the other. Have you checked the Apple Hardware Test on your install disc to see if it finds anything?
