App world won't open

HI,  I have a BB Bold 9870 that's about a year and half old, and I've never had problems with it, until now. 
For the last week or two I've been having trouble with BB App World.
The app will not launch. I've tried rebooting, battery pull while power is on and off, deleting and reinstalling both an older version and the current version, and it downloads and installs fine, but still won't open. I haven't installed any other apps (read on another forum that some cause problems).
Not sure where to go from here. 
Thanks!

Those are the steps I did on my 9650:
- Security Wipe --- "User Installed Applications"
- Connected to  "BlackBerry Desktop Software" and I was prompted to downgrade "BBM" and to reinstall "Blackberry 6.0.0 System Software" and to install "Facebook".
- Installed App World from http://m.blackberry.com/www/en/appworld.html
All good now!!!
I guess something was corrupted and that’s why wasn’t working properly.

  • BB app world won't open when connected to wifi

    Hi  After purchasing my Blackberry Pearl 3g everything worked fine. Then one day I got a message saying there was a new version of app world and to install it . What a mistake that was ever since the bb app world won't open and says there is no wifi connection when I am connected !! I have deleted reinstalled rebooted everything but nothin works. It works perfect through 3g when the wifi is not connected . Please could someone tell me whats the problem Thanks

    At the present time, the on-device AppWorld client requires an active BIS-level data plan from your carrier. Further, it only accesses the AppWorld infrastructure via your carrier data network -- it will not connect via WiFi, even if you have an active BIS plan and BIS is connected via WiFi.
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
    As for what might come in the future -- such information (at least, not authoritative information!) is not typically available here (as per the ToS).
    Good luck!

  • Blackberry App World won't open!

    I have the Blackberry Torch 9800 and and when I try and open App world, it doesn't do anything. It used to open but yesterday and today it won't open. I tried re installing it, deleting it then installing it again and it still won't do anything. Any suggestions?

    Can anyone help me?

  • APP WORLD WON'T OPEN, "FREEZES BB" , AFTER UPDATES

    Hi everyone
    Yesterday I had three updates to make. I did the first one, restarted, then I had the bad idea to launch in the same time the two other updates from the the little bar that indicates lost calls, and any pending updates on the main screen...
    Since then everything works fine, but  I can't open the APPWORLD app, and when I try to, the phone remains "on hold", blocked, even the clock stays blocked. Then I wait 20 minutes, nothing...
    I just have to press twice on the power button, then te clock goes back to correct time, and I can do everything again..Except open and use appworld
    I tried, with no result:
    -reboot the phone with the battery off
    -reinstall the appworld application from the phones navigator
    -use the desktop application
    The desktop application, when trying to remove any app, or install them, sends an error message, and I can't finish the operation.
    Apparently, I have "lost access" to the management of my apps, from the BB and Desktop App....
    Any idea of what I should do???
    THX A LOT!!!!

    Hey everybody i found this on other forum.
    "Do the following:
    options>device>application management
    choose blackberry app world
    select delete
    restart
    on restart, send browser to:
    http://rroyy.com/ota/
    reinstall old version of blackberry appworld
    in my case BlackBerry App World v3.1.0.60 (OS6), no more freezing, all good."
    Worked for me ;D

  • App World does not open

    I downloaded the latest version of my phone and now the app world does not open.  I already took out battery, deleted and reloaded program.
    Not sure if it's something that will fix itself but I need to download a program.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It not mininized but it may have been hidden in a folder. Go to each folders including your homescreen, press menu and choose show all. If you dint see show all, that means there's nothing hidden.

  • App Store won't open on OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

    I recently updated my mac to OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 and during this a power cut happened. When I had finally got power back and turned on my mac it when to installing the new update as if I had just brought the mac brand new and was turning it on for the first place. After this happened and my iMac turned on I went to messages and found that it wouldn't open. 
    When I try to open the program I receive this:
    Check with the developer to make sure that Messages Works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.
    I have tried to open the app store to see if there is an update but my app store won't open. When it says its loaded I click on the icon and the current program I am on does change colour at the top as if I have changed programs but nothing actually comes up. This has been happening for days please help me! I have already tried to reset warnings and caches from iTunes. And I have tried to reset safari but I can't see to find the reset button for it.
    Thank you

    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • For some reason Safari and App store won't open anymore. Everytime I try to open them they crash and it says it's because of the webkit2 plug-in. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

    If you are getting an 'invalid security code' message then is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

    Blackberry App World Will Not Open.. Why?

    Similar issue here... the latest app world 3.1.1.21 installed just fine, but wouldn't start.
    Hello...well, to start with, that is not the latest AppWorld....3.1.4.25 is the latest. Therefore, I suggest you try this sequence:
    1) Remove AppWorld from your BB
    KB10040 How to view or remove installed applications on a BlackBerry smartphone
    If it requests that you reboot the BB, do so
    2) Do a Batt-Pull reboot (power on, remove battery, wait, insert battery, wait), even if redundant to the one you did in step 1.
    3) Install (on your BB) a fresh copy of AppWorld
    http://blackberry.com/appworld/download
    Again, if it requests to reboot, do so.
    4) Do another Batt-Pull reboot
    5) See if it now works.
    Cheers!

  • App Store Won't Open After Mavericks Install :(

    Since installing Mavericks my App Store won't open.  I click and it bounces one time then....nothing.  Any ideas on how to fix this?
    I discovered this when I noticed that Image Preview won't open. I thought that there was an update for it so I went to the app store to see and discovered it won't open either!

    Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

  • My App World will not open.

    I am having some trouble with my BB App World. I downloaded a game and then all of a sudden, app world wouldn't open. I deleted the game app then rebooted a million different times & still nothing has worked. I use apps pretty frequently and just want app world to work again.. HELP!!!

    Are you getting any prompt while trying to open App World? Did you try deleting App World and reinstall it again?? Try that.

  • App store won't open on my ipad?  Any ideas?

    app store won't open on my ipad? I've tried everything suggested by Apple Support but still no luck.  Any other ideas??

    What have you tried ? e.g.
    - closing the app via the taskbar : from the home screen (i.e. not with the App Store app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar
    - logging out and back into your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores
    - a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Apps suddenly won't open. Anyone having this problem?

    I have a new iphone 4. Has been great until today - my apps suddenly won't open. All built-in apps are fine. None of the apps I've added will open - they flash open for an instant, and close again. Software is up to date, there are no app updates. I have tried restarting apps, have restarted the phone, have removed and reinstalled a few apps - same problem, nothing working. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Did you try to reset your phone by holding the sleep and home button until you see the Apple logo?
