Can't update phone + Desktop Software error

So just recently my phone's been acting really strange. The battery of the phone used to last me 2 days but now it only lasts 5 hours. Also the back of the phone (below the battery to be precise) has started to become hot to the touch. (I have replaced the battery and it still has the same problem.) Today, I went to the 'Orange' store to see if they had any solutions. They told me to download the blackberry desktop software and try to update the package software of my phone.
So I got the software, backed up my phone, then I tried to update my phone.
This is where it gets weird. I was notified to update from '6.0 bundle 695' (I've never updated it since I bought the phone.) to '6.0 bundle 2949'. So, as prompted, I clicked update. Before it updates, I get told that "An updated BlackBerry desktop software component must be installed before you can continue."
So I click to install, but in about 1 tenth of a second, I get "There was an error updating your software, please try again." The window then closes, leaving me unable to update my software.
No matter how many times I retry, I get the exact same error.
If anybody has any ideas or possible solutions on how to update the phone, stop the bad battery life and stop the unusual amount of heat being emitted, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
2) Make sure you have the most recent BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
5) Launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC. If, during the process, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
Don't forget to backup.
Good luck and let us know!

Desktop Manager states Updated Software Component Must Be Installed - but won't install it

I am running Desktop Manger 6.1.0.35 (Bundle 34) for a while. I am moving to a new smartphone of the same model but phone I am moving to has an older OS on it. I run the desktop manager which correctly determines that there is a new OS to load. I select the OS version to load and tell it to get the update and it responds with the error 'An Updated Blackberry Software component must be installed before you can continue'. It then asks if you wish to Install or Cancel. After selecting Install, it returns to the main screen of the desktop manager. Selecting UPDATE again, to insteall the latest OS, it repeats the same process again. So I am unable to load the latest OS into the device.
I've tried loading the software via the Blackberry web site instead, and it does the same thing. I can't get the OS updated.
Has anyone had this problem and determined how to get around it?

Hey,
i am having the same issue for about 3 weeks now. I was able to install the latest version, 7.1, but i can't install a new OS. The software finds that there is a new OS that can be installed, but as soon i want to install it, the software demands an update, although it already is the newest version...
Might there be a general problem with the 7.1 version???

It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.

Error loading Blackberry Desktop Software

I have XP Home Edition Version 2002 SP3. I tried installing the newest version of BDM ver. 6.2 which I downloaded from RIM. The received the error while loading: "Balckberry Desktop Software has encountered an error and must close..."
I uninstalled and removed all registry entries and RIM folders and and also used a system cleaner (CCleaner). I reinstalled again and the error still occurs. RIM.destophelper.exe does load to system tray. There are no error codes of any kind associated with this failure to load.
Any help trouble shooting this would be appreciated.

Thanks again for the quick reply.
Is the BlackBerry connected the whole time when you're trying to open BlackBerry Desktop Software?
And just to clarify you did perform all these steps when you uninstalled the previous software: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02206
Because that error will appear if some old DTM files are still present on the computer.

XP Pro on computer won't open Blackberry Desktop software

I have been unable to synch my BlackberryTour with Outlook 2010. We run XP Pro as an operating system on the computer in question. Various versions of the Blackberry Desktop software haven't helped. Either they will open the BB Desktop Software (Version 5.0) but won't synch to Outlook 2010, or the BB software loads apparently successfully, but won't open on the computer (Version 7.1). My husband says he tried all the BB desktop versions in between unsuccessfully. Any ideas of what to try?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi dmrincon,
To clarify, are you unable to launch the BlackBerry® Desktop Software or does it launch and you are just not able to sync?
Thanks.

Efforts to use, repair, and uninstall Blackberry desktop software failed. Help?

I upgraded from XP to Windows 7, and had to reinstall the Blackberry Desktop software. I'm looking for help to get it working. I've installed version 6.0. i'm on Curve 8330 (Verizon). Below describes mt efforts:
When I run the desktop software, I click "organizer', and then I connect the BB and wait unti the bottom right of the BB desktop software says "connecting...' then "sync". i then click the "configure settings..." and get a pop-up window titled "blackberry data synchronization" with message "operation in progress. please wait". The pop-up window self-disappears. It reappears every time I click the "configure settings..." button. However, this has run for hours. The software appears to be stuck in some sort of infinite loop.
So, I tried to repair the software as follows: Start - Control panel - programs and features - blackberry desktop software 6.0 - Next - Next (Repair is checked) - Install. I get a window titled "blackverry desktop software 6.0" that reads "The feature you are trying to use is on a netword resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate parth to a folder containint the installation package 'blackverry desktop software.msi' in teh box below. Use source: C:\Users\Jim\AppData\Local\Temp\WZSE0.TMP\
. I clock ok and try agin and get the message "the path 'c:\users\myname\appdata\local\temp\wzse0.tmp\blackberry desktop software.msi' cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try agin, or try to find the installation package 'blackberry desktop software.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product blackberry desktop software 6.0' I am unable to find this file on my computer, but "windows search" has been less than 100% successful for me in Windows 7. So, I clicked "cancel", and get the following message: "error 1706. No valid source could be found for product blackberry desktop software 6.0. the windows installer cannot continue. So. I click "finish".
So, I try to uninstall the software altogether as followstart - Control panel - programs and features - blackberry desktop software 6.0 - Next - Next (REMOVE is checked) - Next ("Remove all user settings for Blackberry desktop software" is checked.) - Remove. I then get the following message: "error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file c:\windows\installer\blackberry desktop software.msi". When I click "ok" to this window - I see "rolling back action" status bar. I then click "finish".
So,my efforts to use the software, repair the software, and uninstall the software have failed. Any advice?
I see no "blackberry desktop software.msi" in the c:\windows\installer\ folder. I am able to view hidden files in Windows Explorer (Tools Folder options... - View tab - "show hidden files, folders, and driver" is selected".
I'll restart my windows search index tonight.

Thank you Viciousferret,
I re-downloaded the the 600_b047_multilanguage.exe to my PC using thelink you provided. I then ran it. I then did the following:
selected "NExt",
then "REMOVE" (the options were "repair" and "remove", not "modify" or "uninstall"), then NEXT,
then checked "remove all user settings for blackberry desktop software". then NEXT
then the REMOVE button
then FINISH
So, it appears the uninstall was successful.
The next step of your suggestion was to: "Then proceed with the clean uninstall by performing all the steps: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02206" This link provides 5 tasks.
1) The first task includes instructions to ": Uninstall BlackBerry Desktop Software". Should I skip this step because I already did it above? If not, would you please provide the instructions for Windows 7? Only instructions for other operating systems are shown here.
2) The second task is to "remove computer registry entries". The fifth step gives instructions for XP, Vista and 7 64-bit. i use Windows 7 (32-bit). Are you able to provide the instructions for Windows 7? Also, the instructions to back up the registry are: "select My Computer (or Computer in Windows Vista) at the top of the folder structure, click File, and choose Export to export the file to your preferred location.'. When i select start then Computer and then click File (after verifying the "Computer" is highlighted in theWindows Explorer window, I am not presetned with an opportunity to click "Export'. My options are 'add a network location", 'create shortcut (greyed out), "delete", "rename", "properties" and "close". Are you able to provide additional guidance as to how i am failing see "export" when i seemingly follow these instructions?
3) Step 3 gives instructions for deletig folders from teh computer. It also lacks instructions for Windows 7. Are you able to provide them?
4) Step 4 provides a link to follow. that link also lacks instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit). Would you be able to provide instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit) users?

Blackberry desktop software shows erro while updating

can anyone help me .. I really need help im struggling since 4 months my blackberry desktop software is not updating my device when I want to do software update it shows error that " an error occurred while downloading blackberry desktop software. please try again"

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
For some reason, the "automatic" method is failing...consequently, you need to take control and override the automatic method. The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Hello,
Please check carefully these instructions, most importantly the part about deleting VENDOR.XML file(s).
1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
2) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed

3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:

4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Now, use this process:
KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
freexrythem wrote:
"There is no BlackBerry® Software available."
Most often, that message is the result of one (or more) of the following:
There is no BB OS package installed to the PC, and there is nothing available from the carrier (as represented by the VendorID hardcoded into the device)
There is a BB OS package installed to the PC, but it is from a different (per VendorID) carrier, and the VENDOR.XML file(s) have not been deleted (which causes the installed package to be ignored)
There is more than one BB OS package installed to the PC...which can confuse the Loader tool
Good luck!

Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac not updating 9900

Hi,
please could someone assist me in this.
I have a mac running the latest Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac. And a Bold 9900 on 7.0 bundle 1465.
The Blackberry Desktop Software says new update available 7.0.0.1672. So i proceed to update the blackberry. It says installing and reboots. But it still has the old version, and the Blackberry Desktop Software still says new version available. (7.0.0.1672) So im going in a loop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hey luckyBB,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
I noticed you listed your carrier as T-Mobile UK, this provider does not have the 9900 yet. Can you explain what provider this 9900 is from so I can better assist in getting that bundle of software

BlackBerry Desktop Software (Update)

I have been battling for weeks to update my current version (Software Version: 60 Bundle 2475) of BlackBerry Desktop Software to the updated version (Updated Version: 6.0 Bundle 2949) which is available as indicated by the red asterisk next to Updated Version on the home screen of BlackBerry Desktop Software.
I am constantly getting the same error message: "An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your Internet connection or try again later, if the problem persists."
I have absolutely no issue with my internet connection and I am constantly "try(ing) again later".
Please assist.

When I try to open Blackberry Desktop the message I get is that Blackberry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have a Blackberry Bold 9700 and as a result I cannot sync.
