Applications for my blackberry playbook.

Hi,
my name is eddie and i live in Guyana i receintly baught a blackberry playbook, my main problem is that App World is not supported in my country and i'm trying to get new applications for my device.
My question is, is there anyway that i can get the App World to work or any other alternative ways of getting applications on my device? Plz help me out asap!
Thank you.

Hi Eddie,
Sorry that you can't get AppWorld in your country.
You can use a proxy to access AppWorld. There are some sites online that offer a list of publix proxies:
http://www.xroxy.com/proxy-country-US.htm
But these are very slow.
There are some paid services that give you faster proxy access.
Alternatively, you can do what I do and use Amazon to create a personal (and high-speed) proxy:
http://home.engineering.iastate.edu/~hawklan/squidProxy/squidProxy.html
Once you have your proxy details to hand, go into the wifi connections options, edit your wifi connection and add the proxy details there.
Before you open AppWorld, I'd suggest loading a web page first just to check it is all working.
I hope that this helps you!

Adobe Reader for the BlackBerry PlayBook Showstopping Issue: App does not start

Hello;
I would like to report an issue with the Adobe Reader app for the BlackBerry PlayBook which renders the application fully unusable. This issue occurs everytime. This issue has been tested and verified to occur in two distinct BlackBerry PlayBook devices.
Here is a screenshot stating what version (10.0.3.325) of the Adobe Reader app I have installed:
This, I understand, is the latest version for my platform. Unfortunately, the application does not start. Attempting to run it results in a blank screen after showing the BlackBerry logo. The blank screen can be seen in the following screenshot:
It is also strange that the application does not appear in the Application Permissions list, as seen in the following screenshot:
Is there a fix for this showstopping issue? What steps should I take?

Same issue here. Playbook support knows about it, and referred to Adobe. The Adobe forum has this comment. Looks like our Playbooks are abandoned as a platform.
"Mar 4, 2012 7:20 PM
As the tablet market continues to evolve, we continue to evaluate how to best support the market and where to focus on our resources. Because of this, Adobe has decided to end its support of the RIM QNX Playbook devices in March 2012. This means the ability to create new applications for submission to the RIM store will no longer be possible in Adobe Viewer Builder as well as the ability to rebuild existing targets for new releases of Digital Publishing Suite. Any existing QNX targets will be removed from the manage view inside Viewer Builder".

Connect Mobile for RIM Blackberry Playbook hangs while trying to connect to server

We have Adobe Connect 8 (Multilanguage - Portuguese) installed on a server. Connect Mobile for RIM Blackberry Playbook hangs while trying to connect to the server. Hayward Drummond has posted a notice about Adobe Connect 8.1.2 that seems to solve this problem, known as BUG 2886745. I sucessfuly downloaded this update but I´m not sure if it is compatible with Adobe Connect 8 Multilanguage - Portuguese. Does anyone know something about it? I also need to first install version 8.1.1 in order to upgrade to 8.1.2, as remarked by Hayward. Does anyone know where can I download version 8.1.1 (Multlanguage - Portuguese)?

Swapping the blackberry playbook wifi only for a blackberry playbook wifi and cellular.

Hello there! how possible is it to swap my playbook wifi only for playbook with both wifi and cellular? if possible please let me know.

Hello lewtha and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for your question about your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
If you have the first generation tablet which uses Wi-Fi only, it cannot be altered to use mobile networks.
The ability to use mobile network and Wi-Fi was introduced to the second generation tablet. You would need to purchase it to have this ability.
Hope this helps to clarify.

Too late for this to be on the Blackberry Playbook new OS 2??

Will we be able to find our Blackberry phones (if they get misplaced or lost) using the Blackberry PROTECT program on the Blackberry Playbook? With all of the excitement in the air for the anticipation of the new OS 2...I was wondering if the possibility for that useful program will be available as an app for the Playbook?
Also...(Just to get a little bit more greedy on the thought)...will we be able to locate our Playbooks using the same program with the help of our laptops or desktop computers, or Blackberry phones?
Thanks.
Solved!

In other words...is there an app for the Blackberry Playbook to find my phone?
That is exactly what I am saying, you do not need any apps, with the Playbook, just use the browser and go to the Blackberry Protect web site and you can do the same thing as if you are using a computer (laptop or desktop), so why bother with an app when you can already do it using what is on the Playbook
BTW. I am doing that since day one on the 19 April 2011, I even can use the Blackberry Travel web site

Movies on blackberry playbook

because i like my blackberry torch phone i just recently bought the blackberry playbook, now i found out that their are no movie downloads for the blackberry playbook. will their ever be any movie downloads for blacberry playbook in the future i sure hope that really was my main agenda for purchasing it, thank you

I got my PB in September and watch TV shows and movies all the time.
I just move them to the PB using the USB connection and then after I watch them, I use Air Browser to delete them from the PB, so I can put new ones in!
Easy!

How do I set up an email for my blackberry?

I would like to add a couple of applications for my blackberry and it says I need my phones email address. How do I set this up?

I would recommend adding an existing email address to your BlackBerry via BIS. You can add a blackberry email address, but I don't recommend using those for a few reasons, one being that it is not spam filtered. The other is their isnt a web interface to check those emails, the only way they can be checked is via the BlackBerry. To add an email address to your BlackBerry via BIS you have to make sure you have a data plan on your BlackBerry. Then go to your carriers BIS site. Just do a google search, for example " AT&T BIS". This will allow you to add an existing email address to your BlackBerry, which in turn will allow you to have applications emailed to your phone.

Latest blackberry playbook update installed an app that is not listed in My World

The newest update for the blackberry playbook was prompted to be installed.
I updated my playbook.
It powered off and restarted.
Now there is an app called Zinio listed on my 'desktop'.
I did not install this app. EVER.
So i figured i could 'uninstall' the app by going to 'my world' under the apps icon.
But it is NOT listed in My Apps.
How do i remove? Why is it there?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

it is a OS feature app, if you dont want it, press on teh icon for a few seconds till it pulses, then click on delete aka trashcan to remove it

Packaging a .bar file for the BlackBerry Tablet (Playbook) Simulator Using Command Line.

Hi there, I've been trying to deploy one of my AIR apps on the BlackBerry Tablet (PlayBook) Simulator and and have run into a problem packaging the .bar file using the command line. I started this off by reading the article at:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/devices/articles/blackberry_playbook_battery.html
I followed some of the steps there, but found this article on how to package my files using a command line more helpful (the Adobe article doesn't even explain how to package the .bar file using the command line):
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Tablet-OS-SDK-for-Adobe-AIR/Compile-and-Debug-witho ut-Flash-Builder-Using-a-Command-Line/ta-p/628675
Everything was going great until I went to compile my application and received the following error:

Has anyone run into this issue when trying to package a .bar file for the BlackBerry Tablet (Playbook) Simulator? I've tried using a SWF published in CS5 and CS4.

Just thought I'd reply to my own post, in case someone else runs into this problem. Make sure you have the latest and greatest versions of the JDK and JRE installed on your system, in addition to the requirements listed in BlackBerry's list of installs:

Repackaging Android Viewer App for BlackBerry PlayBook

Hi,
Does anyone have tried this? If yes, then was repackaged Viewer working OK on the PlayBook? What tools/utilitiies were used for repackaging as there are few available:
https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/android/
http://crackberry.com/how-install-android-market-and-other-applications-your-blackberry-pl aybook
"The BlackBerry PlayBook is a tablet like no other. The powerful QNX Real Time Operating System embedded within allows it run an entirely different operating system as another application on top of the standard PlayBook OS. This is how the PlayBook will run repackaged Android applications. For the most part, though, repackaged apps will appear to run just like regular PlayBook applications."
Thank you,
Gennady
Update: This compatibility test determines how compatible your app is with the BlackBerry PlayBook OS:
https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/android/bpaa/apk-compatibility-check
And this is a result for Android Market Installer build with Sprint 19 Viewer Builder:
Your application is not compatible with the BlackBerry® Runtime for Android™ Apps.
Your application uses a feature which is incompatible with the current version of the BlackBerry® Runtime for Android™ Apps. We recommend that you download the BlackBerry® Plug-in for ADT to test your application and remove features as required.
4. Severe incompatibilities found
Impact     Type     Reason
3     uses-permission     com.android.vending.BILLING
So if In-app Billing would be optional checkbox for Android app with the optional use of com.android.vending.BILLING in the code, then I guess it will be possible to repackage Viewer for PlayBook. And yes, Amazon Appsstore Installer is compatible with the BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps.

OS2 for the Playbook is still in beta at this point, should be released sometime next month.
So your problem is not that you can't find any apps, you just can't find the one(s) you're looking for.

Digital Editions for BlackBerry Playbook

Hi,
I tried to download Adobe Digital Editions for my playbook. But I later leaned that it's not compatible with Playbook.
Can somebody please let me know other way to check out books from public digital library for playbook.

There are two possible issues. One is whether the file is in .epub or .pdf format, the other is whether it has DRM (Digital Rights Management) applied to it.
It seems there are Blackberry apps for .epub files.
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/50823/?lang=en
http://forums.crackberry.com/playbook-apps-games-f243/best-epub-reader-726698/ talks about some. I don't know if the name crackberry means they are for a cracked Blackberry only.
Both these threads talk about NON-DRM .epub files.
There are lots of non-drm .epub files for download: including almost all classics that are out of copyright (try project Gutenberg).
Most bought books and library books have DRM applied.
I haven't seen anything that says you can read DRM books on the Blackberry.
There are hints one might be coming.
http://nerdberry.net/2012/10/23/adobe-drm-for-epub-now-supported-on-blackberry-playbook-ta blet-and-blackberry-10/
http://www.berryreview.com/2012/10/23/devs-adobe-reader-mobile-sdk-for-epub-drm-now-availa ble-for-playbook-blackberry-10/
I would avoid converting to .pdf for reading if at all possible.
pdf format files don't flow to match your screen size and chosen font size, and are a pain for anything apart from their original application in printing.

No Direct support for BlackBerry PlayBook tablet - why not I just bought it?

I've just bought a playbook. It says it comes with complimentary technical support for 90 days form the date of purchase. I have attempted to register the device using the S/N number as required and I get the following:
Unfortunately, your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet does not qualify for Complimentary Support. You can, however, get assistance using incident based support from Research In Motion.
Why? grrrrrrrrrrrr

It should be. The complimentary support is just for help setting it up.
If you visit http://blackberry.com/support and follow the link for PlayBook you should get a phone number you can call, and RIM support will be able to help you.

JBO-27122 error in ADF mobile client application for blackberry

Hi,
I am trying to develop a simple ADF mobile client application for blackberry. Currently, working only with Blackberry 9700 simulator. I am using the following for development:

- Oracle database lite 10.3.3
I have done all the steps as given in the oracle demo. But when I try to run the application in blackberry simulator, the page shows the following error:
