8830 4.5OS Upgrade Browser issuesm, Need help

Howdy! I'm a n00b here, first post looking for some help.
I discovered the 4.5 OS upgrade when I was searching to find out how to watch youtube videos. I went through the upgrade and everything seemed to work fine. I had my company put me back on the BES, so email is working fine.
When I tried the browser, I couldn't believe the huge improvement over the 4.2 OS. Of course, I immediately went to youtube to try that out and was impressed. However, when I went to check my hotmail acct I kept getting a HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error. I did a search on this, and found the link to change from the BB browser to the IE browser. This didn't work, so like a fool I started changing all the settings to see what might work. I managed to screw it up to the point that no pages would load. I've continued to change some settings and can now get back into a couple of pages, but my hotmail still won't come up. I used to access my acct through msn mobile, then click on the little mail icon.
So, I'm thinking it would be good to first get the browser back to all the defaults. Anyone know where a list is of what boxes are checked originally and which options are defaulted in a clean install?
Or, maybe someone has already seen this?
Details: 8830 WE, OS 4.5.0.135(previous 4.2), Sprint, Unlimited Everything
 Let the n00b bashing begin!!
Thanx
chris
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You will need to play around with all of the Browser configuration and emulation settings to find the combination that works best for your circumstances. The nice thing about the device is that it provides the ability to do so. Take a step-by-step approach so that you make sure to try all configuration combination possibilities. It's pretty rare for there to not be a combination that works for what you need...but it does take time to go through all of the permutations.

  • Finally upgrading to Leopard, need help

    I need to know the best way to go about the following. I plan to do a "clean install" (Erase and Install) of Leopard on my iMac currently that currently has Tiger on it.
    If I do an erase and install will this keep my boot camp windows partition in tact or will it erase the entire HD.
    If I were to copy the entire Mac partition onto a firewire external HD can I use migration assistant to pull the programs and data off of the externald HD and avoid re-installing everything?
    Any help will be appreciated. First one to answer in full gets a shiny new green star

    Get a bootable, external HD (preferably FireWire), and make a bootable backup/clone before upgrading and ensure that it's bootable and works like the original. That allows you to revert to the previous good state without having to reinstall anything. See these for details:

  • Upgrading hard drive, need help!

    I found a good deal on a hard drive at best buy, but I'm not sure it's right... I can't a model number on any of the mac specialty sites. Could someone check out my link and tell me if it will work and if it won't what I need to be looking for in the specs? Thanks. (the more opinions the merrier!)

    I have just upgraded my iBook with the same hard drive.
    The only issue, this happened when upgrading the hard drive on my iMac as well.
    I have the MacOS 10.3 restore dvds for both computers. When you boot up from the DVD. Format the hard drive on Disk Utility. The Drive formats but isn't able to have the OS saved to it via installer. Leave your DVD loaded quit installer turn computer off. Turn on computer you can now save the OS to your hard drive.
    Might be different with MacOs 10.4 restore DVDs

  • Upgrading Hard Drive need help with making it work.

    I have just begun copying my HD to a 120GB 2.5" SATA drive.
    I'm using Super Duper to copy it, and I understand it will be a bootable disk.
    Once it has completed copying, is there anything I need to do to make it the startup disk ?
    Do I make it the startup disk before I swap the hard drive out from within System Preferences ?
    Also, it is currently called Disk 2 - Will that become the name of my HD (currently obviously called Macintosh HD)
    If it is, can I then change the name ?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    SuperDuper will make it a bootable disk if that's the backup option you selected. Look at the SD feedback information. It tells you what it will do and will then show the steps checking off each one as they are completed.
    All you will need to do is remove the old drive and install the new one. It should be ready to go if you did everything correctly. This includes partitioning the new drive using the GUID partition scheme, setting the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and then Erasing the drive using the Zero Data option.
    Be sure to test the cloned drive before installing by booting the computer with it while it's in the external case.
    You can rename the drive anything you want.

  • Upgrading to SSD Need Help

    Hello,
    I have a early 2011, 15" macbook pro and I want to remove my CD drive and put an SSD in its place. I would like to put all the apps and OS on it as well. I was wondering since I have an Adobe Suite and other purchased programs, would I it be possible to put all of those on the SSD or would I have to repurchase everything to put them there? I really dont want to lose my programs.
    My computer has been running slow which is why I figured I need a new hard drive to make the OS faster again. When i purchased this computer I believe it started out with OS X 10.6 and then upgraded to 10.7 and now 10.8. I noticed that each time I would lose about 10 gb per update. It seems as if they just pile up on eachother without removing the old files. So to my question would it be worth it to completely back up my drive and on the new ssd have it restore from backup?
    I am asuming with all the piling of OS's i should start out fresh but at the same time I dont want to lose my programs but if im going to upgrade to an SSD I want the speed bump from the SSD to apply to my programs.

    No they don't pile up on top of one another. The OS X upgrades normally remove the older files the newer version uses and or Overwrite them. But as with everything an upgrade OS is usually bigger then the one it is replacing. 10GBs no but some GBs, 1-3.
    As to the SSD I suggest you install it in the Main Bay and move your current Spinning HDD to the optical bay.
    So have had problems getting a SSD to work correctly in the optical bay, other haven't but no one has had any problems installing the SSD to the main bay and the spinner to the optical bay. That is IF there are no hardware problems like a bad cable.

  • Upgrading Problem. Need help ! T_T

    Hi everyone.
    First off i would like to explain my situation. I own a iMac G4 (Tiger, 10.4.11) and my dad owns a iMac G5 (Leopard)
    I was hoping to be able to upgrade my iMac G4 to leopard but i proved unsuccessful. Upon placing the Leopard disk that came with the iMac G5 into the iMac G4, an installation window appears. I managed to reach to the point where an option asks you to restart, and upon boot up it reverts to a leopard based window. From there, the installation stops and the installation comes to a halt. Another window appears, asking for another restart. I did so, but the same process continues. I realised the problem stops only after using 10.4.11 boot up option. After which, i came back to a tiger based window. ( which is back to square one )
    Not sure where i have gone wrong during the installation. Or is it even possible in the 1st place to upgrade a iMac G4 using a tiger to leopard?
    I hope to have your feedback. It will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot. (:

    Hi messinger1 and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Firstly the disk won't work because it is specific to the G5.
    Secondly even if it did work you'd be in contravention of Apple's End User Licence Agreement (EULA) that states that the software can only be installed on one machine unless a Family licence is paid for.
    If you want Leopard on the G4 you'll have to buy a retail copy.
    Good luck,
    Adrian

  • Cant re-upgrade...NEED HELP curve 9300

    hello!
    i was using os 6 when i downgrade to os 5...now i want the os 6 back.
    didnt work even with desktop software and with deleting the vendor.xml.
    what i have to do to get my os 6 back????????
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Version 6.0.0.668 is the latest OS6 version available for the 9300. Device operating system releases are "released" by specific carriers once they have certified and trained their support techs, but still, you are able to load to any carrier's same model by following the instructions below.
    See the link below for the download, and follow these simple installation instructions.
    Do a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion.
    1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
    https://swdownloads.blackberry.com/Downloads/contactFormPreload.do?code=D840CC5D906C3E9C84374C8919D2...
    2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • Software upgrade not working need help asap!

    hey all
    my 9360 curve is currently plugged in but is stuck on the back up proccess. i dont want to unplugged my device. what else can i do to restart the install proccess to update to new os7.

    OK. Since the issue is specific to your original user account, you can proceed in two ways. One is to log into your new account, make a list of the preference files (plists) located in /username/Library/Preferences/, including any in the ByHost subfolder, log back into the original account, move everything on that other account's list from the original account's Preferences folder into a newly created folder on the Desktop, log out and back in, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you can copy the ones in the Desktop folder (one at time) back into /Preferences/, restart, and see if the problem returns. If so, you've identified the corrupt/conflicting one. Continue with all of them until isolating the bad ones. That'll save you the trouble of resetting preferences.
    The second way is much more detailed and I'll not burden you with the steps unless the above doesn't fix the issue.

  • Need help with upgrading my browser

    I need help to upgrade my window browser, which I use msn 9. I have java 1.5.02 or higher but won't be able to work with.

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple withdrew Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • HT201541 I need help with updating my browser.

    I need help with updating my browser.  Its telling me that Safari is outdated.

    That is a very old version belonging to Snow Leopard. I take it you are not actually running Yosemite.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Wish I didn't upgrade! and now I need help to figure out how to make it wor

    I have a Windows XP Pro 2nd edition with IE ver 6.0.2 (but I normally use FireFox)
    I've never had any trouble with iTunes until iTunes "forced" me to upgrade my iTunes applicaiton to version 6 if I wanted to "purchase" music. (note to self: Purchase music from stores it's much safer)...
    I upgraded and received no error messages. Trouble is now, when I launch the iTunes application it doesn't "open" ... although the iTunes process begins to run in the background process (ctraltdelete).
    I have uninstalled and installed 5 different times and ways.
    First uninstall was "typical" uninstall. THat didn't fix it.
    Second uninstall was "typical" unistall from the Control Panel, and then I removed the folders from the "program File" folder. Still wouldn't work.
    Third unintall was "typical" then I removed folders from local drive and removed all "known" registry "itune" keys. That didn't work.
    Fourth uninstall was first a "repair" to itunes, and then a "typical" uninstall, then I removed folders, removed registry (does anyone know all of itunes registry keys? Maybe I am missing a few.. the only ones I know of is the "itune" reg). Then I looked through my start up menu from "msconfig" and took a look at my firewall program to see if there was anything preventing the program from running...
    Fifth uninstall pretty much fruitless as my previous attempts.
    I know it HAS to be a registry key of some sort.. here's why:
    When I uninstall and reinstall (no matter how thourough) every time I install the iTunes program Windows XP has never ONCE recognized the new install of iTunes as a "NEW PROGRAM" and it should!
    I need help... what registry keys should I be removing? ANyone suggest for me to remove Quick Time too? What about the ipod updater software? Any connection?
    HELP??????????????????
    THanks
    W.

    hi wmchisholm!
    Trouble is now, when I launch the iTunes application it doesn't "open" ... although the iTunes process begins to run in the background process (ctraltdelete).
    hmmm. is itunes.exe persisting in Task Manager? if so, first check up on these two possibilities:
    iTunes 6 won't open on a Windows computer if firewall software is not up-to-date
    iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading
    but if itunes.exe is disappearing after a few seconds, try the following technique:
    Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
    ... and let us know the names (exact spelling please) of the start-up items that you had to disable in order to get itunes to launch. (there's a nasty piece of malware out there that has been causing "error-less" itunes launch failures since late October.)
    love, b
