APP ERROR 523 please help!!!

Can someone please help me!! my blackberry loads and then gets to a white screen saying app error 523 and then turns off can anyone help me fix this via a mac computer?

If you don't know the password you're going to lose the data on the device anyway.  I'd do the following:
1. First locate your carrier and the OS file you wish to use.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/dow​nload_sites.jsp
2. Download the OS file from step 1 to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
3. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." Also check the following locations for vendor.xml files and delete any instances of the file:
On Windows Vista/7 navigate to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (Where "YOUR_USER" is your username)
On Windows XP navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (Where "YOUR_USER" is your username)
5. Use BBSAK from BBSAK.org and wipe the device (after doing a complete backup) then after you get the error 507 (no OS installed) then proceed to next step.
6. Plug in BlackBerry and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader

  • App error 552 PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    Hi for days now i have had a white screen and small writing on saying app error 552. The phone will not come on at all, just resets to the same screen so I cant do anything via the phone. 
    I asked on my facebook and was giving a link to try for some software. I downloaded it and it recognised my phone (well i think it did) but kept saying no updates available. and wouldnt do anything basically could not choose options or device as no highlighted options. 
    I was then told today to download another which i did, I downloaded blackberry device software for my phone and installed. 
    After installation and On starting the program, it comes up with : Devie connection, enter pin?
    It does not have any options and wont let me input anything in to it. 
    I was told if I got the software I could plug in to the computer via a usb and do a master reset, or reset and delete all files and hardware and this would sort out the problem. 
    I just need help, i can do it if i have clear instructions to read, simpler the better lol. I dont want to have to get a new phone. 
    I dont care if i lose everything as long as i cn use it and get stuff back on it.
    Please help all suggestions welcome. 

    Hello,
    First, start with this reference:
    Article ID: KB18751 Error "Reload Software: 552" is displayed on the BlackBerry smartphone
    Next, please conduct these steps as preparation:
    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. (this is likely moot in your situation)
    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/downloa​d_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
    Now, attempt to use these tricks..however, please substitute the Desktop Sofware or LOADER.EXE from the above rather than any update website they may direct you to:
    KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader

  • App Error 606 ~ Please Help

    Just upgraded to OS 6.0. Deleting unwanted mailboxes > asked to update Email Set Application > did so > BB dies with message...App Error 606, Reset.
    What to do?

    At this point, you'll need to reconnect to BlackBerry Desktop Software to get anywhere with your phone.  Have a look at this article from RIM:

  • App error 523 reset... PLEASE HELP!!!!

    First I lost my camera app. Then I started getting the message:APP ERROR 523. RESET.
    Help needed.

    1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
    "c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
    3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
    4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
    5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Hit Next and Finish and you are well on your way to getting your Blackberry back to life. Congrats! Just don't disconnect anything and let the lengthy process finish completely.
    NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device.
    BlackBerry Device Operating System downloads: http://www.blackberryforums.com/blackberry-device-specific/
    Just select the appropriate device model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.
    IF the above does not work or help, You will need to use JL_Cmder to wipe the device and subsequently load the OS to the device. Follow the instructions here:
    Download JL_Cmder http://www.blackberryforums.com/rim-software/18789-jl_cmder.html
    or download BBSAK http://bbsak.org/download.php
    If JL_Cmder does not work, you can try this:

  • App Error 523 - Multiple incidents! Please Help!

    I have an 8330 on Verizon and about 2 weeks ago, I received the "app error: 523". I tried remove applications and rebooting it but none of it worked because i couldn't to the phone. I couldn't even back up my data and contacts. I was forced to enter the password incorrectly and wipe everything off my phone. I then reinstalled the OS and everything was fine. I just recently started to get my contacts and everything back but when I rebooted it tonight, I received message again. This is very frustrating! I dont have many apps at all (Google maps, google talk, facebook, etc.) Can someone please give me some insight? Is this something I'm always going to have to deal with? Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Re: app error 523 reset... PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Hi! Ok, i am totally lost!  My blackberry pearl 8100 stoped living as of this morning at 8 a.m.  I has a white screen with the same message as yours did, "app error 523 reset"  No matter how many times i hit reset, it doesnt RESET!  I have been off work since 6 and online looking for solutions.  I read what the guy told you about yours, but i dont think i understand.  I purchased my bb from someone, and i dont have anything on my desktop manager as some websites say.  I do have the usb that came with the phone.  Please help me if you can.  I cannot afford another cell at this moment and i really like the one i have now.  I have also tried the holding down the alt cap del button; NOTHING.  I JUST WANT MY PHONE BACK.  PLEASE!  SOS!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    (FYI - we had this split off of a closed thread so that it could receive proper attention...)
    First, you need to take the red out of your posts...please.
    Second, you need to do the following:
    I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything. If you have never installed the Desktop Software to your PC, then skip steps 1 and 2.
    1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
    2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
    KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
    3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
    Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    5) Install DTM to your PC
    6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
    OK...next, follow this KB (including the other links within the KB) for recovery from the 523 error:
    KB11816 Error "523 app.error.Reset" appears on the BlackBerry smartphone
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Please help app error 523

    ive got a bb pearl 9105 and everytime i turn it on its come up with error messages then comes up with a white screen that says error 523. i cant plug it into my comp as the charge port is broken and cant get rid of the error messages to activate the bluetooth.
    anyone could any ideas?? ive tried reseting it, taking battery, sim,memory card out and nothings doing the trick...please help...

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Here is a KB that discusses that error:
    KB24395 "Error 523", "App Error 523", or "JVM 523" appears on the BlackBerry smartphone
    Unfortunately, the actual remedy may well require connection to your computer...but with the port broken, that won't be possible. So you won't be able to fix this without seeking formal hardware-level support.
    If you remain in warranty, you should seek out support via that channel. If you have no warranty, then you would seek out a local (to you) shop with qualified BB hardware technicians who can give you a proper diagnosis and estimate.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • HELP!!! app error 523

    I am so bummed.  Curve 8330, the hourglass had been hanging more and more.  Have used the "control-al t-delete" to reset.  Well it has finally gotten to the point that the hourglass is constant.  I can't do anything, resetting doesn't fix it.  Now I have a white screen with "app error 523" and reset option.  Reset doesn't work.  I've tried to do what I found on the main blackberry site to reinstall my operating system, but my computer doesn't even recognize my device and won't connect.  I am at a total loss as to what to do.  Does anyone know how I can fix this thing?  I'm so upset as this is my only phone and its not even 2 years old.

    There are some instances where (due to the nature of the error) your pin does not display in desktop manager. Try and reload via application loader, or you can click on the "PIN" link and see if you can manually find the PIN. IF not. With it connected, go into 'My computer' and see if it is listed in 'Devices with removable storage'. If it is not there either, it could be a driver issue.

  • BB 8320 showing APP error 523. How do I back up data before installing new os

    Help me pls I'm very desperate> my BB is just over 1 year old. Woke up to find the screen with APP ERRor 523 reset . I've tried all tricks in previous treads without success. Only thing left is to install new os. Trouble is that the BB is not backed up yet. How can I back it up before removing old os and installing a new os

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Sorry, but it is highly likely that your data is already lost...so there is nothing to backup now. This simply proves the point that there are two kinds of computing device users...those who have lost data...and those who will. Backups before things go wrong are simply not optional.

  • App Error 523

    Hey Folks,
    Im in a bit of a bother. 3 weeks ago, i went to goa for a few days off. I had switched off my phone, and when i landed, i turned it on in order to call the hotel. When i did turn it on, i got this white screen which simply said "app error 523" and gave me only one option, to reset. When i did reset the phone, it came back to the same screen, and now......thats all my blackberry does. Its a 8520 by the way. I cant put in my SIM PIN, i cant make a call, i cant plug it into a computer, i cant do anything with it basically. Its just dead.
    SO!!! Since it is still under warranty, i gave it to Jumbo Electronics, hoping theyd be able to fix it up for me. I have specifically asked them to keep my data, because i have business contacts that are vital to my work on there. Now, Jumbo called me up, and said they cant make my phone functional, without reformatting the entire device, and losing all of my data.
    Now, no offence to Jumbo, but i doubt they have the proper expertise to deal with this. As far as i can see, they are just plugging it into a PC and reformatting it like anyone could do.
    Which is why i turn to you guys. Is there any way, any at all, that i can keep my data and use my phone ever again??
    I havent ever backed it up, not that i would remember doing it, but i doubt i have. Is there any way i can fix this up??
    Please please please help me out, im so sick of this. I did nothing wrong whatsoever, and now im losing time, and money i could have been making, as well as a constant headache.
    Appreciate all your suggestions and responses.
    Thanks and Cheers,
    Gaurav

    Hi
    If you have never done a back-up of your device, then you will lose all your personal settings, contacts etc. Reformatting basically means reloading the software which will completely wipe out the data.
    The ONLY possibility is that you have connected to the PC using the Desktop manager or Software and did inadvertantly do a back-up. If you never connected them don't bother trying to find the file, if you did it has the extension .ipd and so is easy to find in a search.
    Otherwise the Jumbo guys are quite right. Sorry.

  • App Error 523 Reset

    Will somebody please help with my BB Pearl 8110 by walking me through
    the complete resolution to this problem?
    It all began by turning itself on and off, on and off.
    I checked for updates an began the update process to v 5?
    Unfortunately it must've turned itself on and off, on and off causing
    App Error 523 Reset.
    I followed other advice like hard and soft reboots? and my BB began
    Blinking 4 times then once repeatedly.
    So after going through, what I thought were the correct steps to recover
    I've once again returned to
    App Error 523 Reset.
    At this point all I want is my BlackBerry back. Forget any personal items
    I once had. I'll start all over again.
    Thanks a bunch for any help and if it helps I will surely post so.
    Scott

    Hello!
    We are so sorry that you are having so many difficulties. While many experience the same (a search here will reveal that fact), there are also many who have very positive experiences with their BB. Not every device is suitable for everyone -- which IMHO is why there are so many choices.
    FYI -- these forums are a user-to-user support channel, not a user-to-RIM conduit. As such, it is unfortunate that we all missed your post and did not provide any useful responses to you...but, we are volunteers and not paid RIM support folks...sometime we just miss things. But a perusal through these forums will I think show your experience to be abnormal (as far as helpfulness in these forums is concerned). But, yes, I am biased...I volunteer a lot of time here when I can.
    For the benefit of others who search and find this thread, here is the relevant KB for resolving the 523 error:
    KB11816 Error "523 app.error.Reset" appears on the BlackBerry smartphone
