App World issues. "having trouble connecting to BlackBerry App world Server" and "installation issue"

Hey.... I hope this isn't just repeating the 'same old' issue, but I have read through everything I could find and I am still having no luck.
Anyways I am having a few issues.....
ONE/// When I try to go to "My World" on my Playbook it always comes up with the message:
BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the Blackberry App World Server,  Verify your network connections and try again.
One solution I read was to connect to an alternative WiFi connection, however I haven't got any other connection I can connect to before switching back to my own.... help?!
TWO// There are also two games I have been desperately trying to install but have had no luck.  Each time all I get is the following message:
Install Error. There was a problem during Installation.  Please try again.
I have read the KB26671 file, and tried to follow the 'resolution' there but whenever I log in I never get any 'account set up process' to continue with..... let alone what the rest of the guide says to do.
THREE// Not sure why but when I try to use AppWorld on my PC it won't show me my playbook device, simply says "please connect your device".... help?  According to my playbook it is connected to computer, and my PC is picking up the Playbook as the manager always tells me it is there and lets me view the files but still AppWorld can't seem to see it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Solved!

Well I was just trying to see if it was your network connection. I have found that lately anyhow, the connection to the App World hasn't been that reliable - not sure why and it's just been recently for me. But I have downloaded some pretty large files in the last few days too without issue.
Sorry, this isn't much help but if you find your network connection is becoming flaky, remove the profile and setup a new one. Sometimes I find I have to briefly shut off my internet connection on the PlayBook and then re-enable it when it's acting up. Then things are fine afterwards. A device reboot may help but it may not. I wish I could be more help but this gremlin sounds elusive.
Actually, duh, why didn't I put two and two together eariler? See if this thread is applicable to you or not: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/PlayBook-not-letting-me-update-apps/td-p/...
In short, reboot your PlayBook and try again...

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    This error has been discussed hundreds (thousands?) of times in this forum...a quick search of the site might actually provide you with an answer much quicker than awaiting a reply.
    Also, there are several public KB articles on that exact error...I recommend you go there and search as well:
    http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/microsite.do
    Since each has a subtle difference from the other, I cannot tell which might apply to your specifics.
    Good luck!

    Welcome to AD!
    I have a regular post for the top 3 or 4 fixes for that 9808 error. Obviously you are going to skip #1, since you've already tried it. Let me know how you get on with the next 2.
    The top 3 fixes to itunes error 9808 seem to be
    1) Go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, make sure that SSL 3.0 is checked and TLS 1.0 is checked. Also under Security make sure that the “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)” is unchecked. Then click ok and fire up iTunes.
    2) The culprit was Norton. The users are set up as Admin and Standard. I have Parental Controls turned on in both Vista as well as Norton. Admin users had no problems connecting to iTunes. Standard users would get the error. I had to go to Norton’s Personal Firewall and add the program “iTunes Helper.exe” and set the option to “Allowed” (”iTunes.exe should already be in the Allowed category.) in order for the standard users to be able to connect.
    3) close iTunes if you have it open right now. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes. Delete or cut the preferences.xml file which contains your iTunes preferences. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes and delete or move the preferences.xml file. For Mac users, there is only one file you must delete or move a to a new location and is located at User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.itunes.plist. Restart iTunes and it will recreate those two (or one) files with the default settings. Feel free to set your preferences back to what they were and then connect to the iTunes store and enjoy!
    And #4, see if you can get into the iTS from a different windows admin account on the same PC.

  • Having trouble connecting to AIM on iChat, adium and AIM

    hi guys,
    as the title states, i am having a **** of a time connecting to ichat through my wireless connection!
    i recently moved and have a new ISP provider (qwest). i have contacted them regarding port forwarding/firewall settings and they assured me that there is no problem with their modem. i tested this out by connecting my macbook directly to the modem, and i was able to connect to ichat.
    next, i adjusted settings on the motorola wireless router (model wr850g), turned off the firewall, port forwarding, UPnP! this didn't help at all. i contacted motorola and they assured me that it was not their product that was causing my connection problems and it was the settings on my mac.
    now, i have been able to connect to ichat when using a linksys router right out the gate, so all the firewall settings that i adjusted in the system preferences was new to me. so i followed all the directions there about sharing and firewall and performed all necessary steps, and i am still having problems.
    i am able to browse the internet, but things like azureus, ichat, adium, and aim are not working.
    before i contact apple regarding this issue, i wanted to see if there was anybody with the same type of problem. i have searched the forums the past 2 days and could not find anything regarding this problem. please help.
    the model of the qwest router is
    actiontec gt-701
    motorola wr850g
    thank you
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    Hi mrayatpa,
    Both these devices have variation model numbers on this Page
    http://portforward.com/routers.htm
    It would be best if one was not doing DHCP.
    Preferably the modem should have DHCP turned off then the router should be set to ask to use a Static IP to the Modem.
    This will stop the computer being in two DHCP subnets that overlap and is probably the cause of the problem.
    As iChat uses ports above 1024 that need to be opened or allowed this needs sorting.
    Web Browsing and mail apps use ports below the 1024 mark and are not routers as such hence the reason the work no matter what the set up is (or how many subnets are involved)

  • Having trouble with 10.4.6 update - ipod and isight issues

    Hi everyone.
    Got my first mac a few weeks ago, and ran a host of updates all at once, so to be honest, I'm not sure which one is causing the problem.
    However, since running the following, my built in isight no longer works, telling me "no camera is attatched or it is being used by another app."
    I ran the updates whilst my ipod was connected (via USB), and now my ipod is not being recognised at all, in itunes or on the desktop.
    I've tried turning off, unplugging everything, deleting all 3rd party apps, but all to no avail.
    My main question is, is this a known problem and will a further update sort it, or do I have to contact apple and send it back?
    Thanks for reading this, and thanks in advance for any advice.
    Cheers, Ben.

    "Security Update 2006-003 (Intel)" (1.0)
    "iWeb Update" (1.1.1)

    Some sucsess so far.
    If I plug the ipod into my hub then it seems to work fine. But both my ipod and an external drive don't work through the other two usb ports. I'm assuming that that must make it a hardware fault, but odd that it should only occur after the update!?
    I'm currently backing up everything, but once that's done I will try different devices through different ports.
    The isight is the built in one though, and doesn't appear in system profiler. Once I've backed up I might try reinstalling photobooth, imovie and ichat. If that fails I might reinstall os x.
    Does this all sound resonable?
    And thanks for the help! The speed and quality of the replies have really impressed me.

  • Anyone else having trouble connecting MBP with thunderbolt port (TBp) and 27"iMac with mini display port (MDp)

    I have a 27" Imac.i7 with mini displayport and MBP13 i5 with thunderbolt port. Some time ago I tried to connect my old MBP with miniDP  to The 27"iMac I Failed so did the apple centre they refunded cable costs and said I'd be contacted by Cupertino. That was 9 months ago, now replaced MBP with 13 inch(**** I can use my iMac as display!). Does not work phoned Fast Lane very helpful guy called JIM emailed me some software/firmware update links.  Still no display linking. One of the links was for a couple of updates for a TBp equiped 27" iMac mine is only MDp equiped. Failing to find any MDp updates in apple support.  Anyone have any Ideas!  My lad has a later 27"i5 he uses Xbox 360 no problem on his but it wont look at my MBP.
    Beginning to feel like some of the kit that went with a fully loaded 5500 worked eventually. Computer and FM radio, Photography kit fine, video capture audio capture forget it.  Too many crashes and resets made it impractical.

  • Having trouble connecting to your up-date server, I can't.

    Have been trying for weeks to install your up-date that was sent to me and suggested to install. Problem is three fold:
    1- I can not get past the pop up screen that states Downloading Firefox and connecting to Firefox server, green bar just keeps running back and forth, it will never connect. And reminder pop-up comes on every time I restart my computer and try to install it every time, with the same results, it just keeps running.
    2- I also get Alerts from my Norton System that state " High Disc usage by Firefox.
    3- I get lots of not responding messages and delays on Firefox
    I'm sure all are related, but I'm computer stupid and don't know what to do.

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Trouble connecting to Thailand bot phone calls and...

    Hi
    This is my first post. Lately I have been having trouble connecting to Thailand both on Mobile and by sms. I have a current Unlimited World subscription. many times my sms sit pending and at times get delivered several hours after I submit. I have questioned the recipient and they have assured me they have not turned off their phone and everything is ok from their end. It is very annoying as I cannot seem to find the problem. I try calling the mobile from Skype only to get a message saying it cannot be connected.
    Please advise

    I am also posting first time. I have been having te same problem for several days. I gotthrough late at night once in the past few days.

  • I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. It is not an issue with the service/router. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport... anyone know what's up with this?

    I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. I am able to connect to other networks but not my own. It is not an issue with the service/router because other devices connect fine. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport. Last time it happended I called apple and the suggested I wipe my HD and reinstall everything. I did and it did not work. One day I turned my laptop on and it connected no problem. Now it has kicked me off again. I tried resetting my IP address but that does not work either! Has anyone had this problem?

    Try this:
    Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
    Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
    Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
    Apply this.

  • I'm having trouble connecting to apps, itunes store, internet on my iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4.  I am currently connected to a perfectly running WiFI connection.  Why am I not able to connect anything?  I've tried ALL the fixes suggested.  HELP!!!!!!!!!

    I'm having trouble connecting to apps, itunes store, internet on my iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4.  I am currently connected to a perfectly running WiFI connection.  This just started happening today (2/19/14)!  Why am I not able to connect anything?  I've tried ALL the fixes suggested.  HELP!!!!!!!!!  BTW, I know my Wi-Fi connection is good because I'm using it on my desktop and other people in my office are also connected on their iPhones and desktops.  Again, HELP!!!!

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPhone a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the "i" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPhone (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
