AW version 4.3.0.26 installation story on a Torch 9800

This story began when I received a message that AW version 4.3.0.26 was available. I have a Torch 9800 with software version 6.0.0.706 and for the last 2 years every time I tried to install a new version of AW I ran into icon issues, either by clicking the AW icon it did not open the AW start up page or the icon could not be found. So I was curious what happen this time.
After I downloaded the new version and clicked the AW icon the app did not open. I checked the 'Application Management 'info and alas: AW was installed but already running showing CPU time had accumulated, i.e. AW was stuck in a loop.
I then tried to recover by pulling the battery a few times and uninstall/reinstall the AW software but to no avail. (This often is a quick fix but mostly not for a Torch 9800).
The only way I knew how to solve this issue was to wipe the phone but with an 'auto restore' feature for my current data. While this method wipes one's phone, i.e. it removes first all current device information and applications it is smart enough to reload all your device info and all apps including the paid apps later automatically.
I call this method 'auto restore'. A classic wipe leaves your phone with no data as suggested in other threads but then one has to reload  the backup data file  by hand to restore stuff but it does not restore your apps automatically and is quite cumbersome.
 Here are my initial conditions:
I have the newest DTM (Desktop Manger Software) installed, e.g. version 7.1.0.41
I have a copy of my current device software on my (Windows XP) PC
I made a backup file of my current data and apps
I had previously installed a valid ID 
I installed the newest AW version, e.g. 4.3.0.26 (but with issues)
Here are my actions:
1) I selected 'Update' on DTM under 'Device' on the main DTM screen getting this message:
An updated BlackBerry Desktop Software component must be installed before you can continue.
2) I selected 'Install'
Windows Installer Window popped up.
Please wait while Windows configures BlackBerry Device Software Updater.
Existing BlackBerry software has been detected on your computer and must be closed before proceeding. Disconnect your device and click OK to close the applications. Otherwise click Cancel to stop the installation.
3) I disconnect my phone and clicked OK.
DTM shut down and then restarted after the BlackBerry Desktop Software component installation was complete.
4) I reconnected my phone and selected again 'Update' on DTM under 'Device' on the main DTM screen getting this message:
There are no BlackBerry Device Software updates available.
5) I unchecked 'Keep me subscribed to email notifications' and selected 'View other versions'. I then selected 'Install' using the currently installed version with the default check mark.
DTM checked again for updates but now I got an 'Update Option' box with 2 default check marks:
6) I unchecked 'Keep me subscribed to email notifications' and then clicked 'Install update'.
7) After the 'auto restore' installation was complete I disconnected my phone and followed all prompts. (Make sure you can receive and send emails before you continue).
I then looked for the AW icon but this time it was not there!!! Normally this 'auto restore' resolved the 'non responsive click issue' but today it did not.
8) I decided to delete the just installed AW version and then reinstalled it. Alas, finally the AW icon appeared and now it was responsive.
I followed the phone's prompts, installed my ID and then initialized my paid apps. It is important to do it in this order (install the ID first) or the paid apps will not work properly.
This 'Update' path method  which leads later to the 'auto restore' resolved my issues and all was good again. 
Note: If you have a large music library on your phone as I have make sure it has stopped loading all files before you try to start your ID installation or you get some 'unwanted' messages.
While KB29422  suggests to install App World 4.0.0.55 to avoid the 'no show icon issue' I found that the 'auto restore’ method was always a good work around for either issue to have the latest AW version on my phone.
So this is my today's story which I wanted to share with the community. It might give you some new ideas to try out. I you liked it click either the 'thumb up' or ‘Like button' in the thread. Thx.

  • AW vers. 4.3.0.32 frozen icon story with a fix on a Torch 9800

    This is a story of what happened when I installed the newest AW version on my Torch 9800 with device version 6.0.0.706.
    I got a message from BlackBerry that a new AW version 4.3.0.32 was available.
    WOW, I just finished installing 4.3.0.26 last Sunday; see my first story:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-World/AW-version-4-3-0-26-installation-story-on-a-...
    I clicked the upload link in the message and then selected ‘upgrade’ in the familiar AW window screen of version 4.3.026.
    After the reboot I clicked the AW icon but no action. It looked like the AW icon was ‘frozen’. Clicking the icon did not open the AW start up screen. I then checked via  ‘Application Management’ that the AW app was loaded and saw that it was already running,  e.g. 4.3.0.32 had consumed some CPU time; most likely it was started by the reboot (?) which is still an issue on my Torch after 2 years of ‘fixing’ hopes.
    OK, it was time again to wipe my Torch but using the DTM’s ‘Update’ function.
    Why I am doing it this way?
    If one pretends to do an ‘Update’ by using the existing current device software version of one’s phone, DTM’s ‘Update’ function has the wonderful property of restoring the phone’s settings and current data plus reinstalls all one’s apps, even the paid apps.
    This method as described in the above link worked well for me again. The only drawback: it takes about ½ hour of one’s time.  
    After the reboot was complete and I disconnected my phone from DTM the icon worked properly and all was good with vers. 4.3.0.32 on my Torch, end of story for now…..

    Hi :-)
    Thanks for your answer.
    I forget to mention that : I've already try to uninstall and re-install with the most "clean" process I could imagine ;-)
    uninstall (the "uninstall" option of the 2 proposed : "uninstall" and "supress")
    reboot
    install -> error popup, no FB
    reboot - error popup, no FB
    another try
    uninstall (the "Supress" option of the 2 proposed : "uninstall" and "supress")
    reboot
    install -> error popup, no FB
    reboot - error popup, no FB
    no clue :-(

    Hi hongkongpom,
    Just wanted to say that after posting the problem, I had a chat with an iTunes' Tech Support, her name is Rebekah.  My problem was resolved after that.  Will list the chat history below in hopes that it may help you as well.
    Good luck!
    Samia  
    Chat Transcript
    Friday, October 4, 2013 05:55 AM
    Duration: 81 minutes 28 seconds
    Rebekah:
    Welcome to AppleCare chat support. Please give me a moment to look over your information.
    Rebekah:
    Hi, Samia! My name is Rebekah. If we get disconnected, please chat us back. http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/contactEnter the case number from the initial email we sent you. This gives the next advisor you chat with immediate access to your case history.
    Rebekah:
    Could you please confirm your serial number? I want to be sure we provide the best service possible for you, Samia!
    SAMIA:
    Sure, it's 8L8395UY2C5
    SAMIA:
    My problem is with iTunes.
    Rebekah:
    Thanks for that confirmation. Just a heads up, this is iOS Tech Support. We do support iPod touches, iPads, and iPhones, but not the iPod classic. But no worries! I can get you in touch with a phone Advisor who can get you in touch with the department that specializes in iPod classics and would be able to better assist you. Would that be OK?
    SAMIA:
    I wasn't able to install the new version of iTunes (version 11.1.1). The installation keeps failing. The they suggested the I install it manually and that failed too. I will attach the message I received.
    SAMIA:
    I don't have a problem with iPod.
    SAMIA:
    Just iTunes
    Rebekah:
    No problem! We can certainly troubleshoot iTunes as much as possible. It may come to the point that you may have to transferred, but we can do as much as possible during this chat!
    Rebekah:
    Thanks for the screenshot. It is a bit small so I am unable to fully see the message that you are receiving. What is the error message you are receiving?
    SAMIA:
    This is the message I received in case you weren't able to open the attachment: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2324."
    Rebekah:
    Thanks for that info!
    SAMIA:
    Pleasure!
    Rebekah:
    What version of Windows (XP, Vista, 7) do you have?
    SAMIA:
    Windows 7
    SAMIA:
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Rebekah:
    Thanks for that confirmation. I do apologize for the delay, Samia. I am researching this error code now. You mentioned trying to install iTunes manually. To be sure I am on the same page, what steps did you take to do that?
    SAMIA:
    Well when the indsatalltion failed I was given instructions to select Download Only from Tools and then install manually. When I did it, I window popped up with the following items: - AppleApplicationSupport
    SAMIA:
    - AppleMobileDeviceSupport64
    SAMIA:
    - Bonjour64
    SAMIA:
    iTunes64
    SAMIA:
    SetupAdmin
    SAMIA:
    I selected Repair in all of them instead of Remove and all worked but iTunes64
    SAMIA:
    That's when I received the message that I sent you earlier.
    SAMIA:
    By the way, this is the fir st time something like this occured. I never had problems with installation before.
    Rebekah:
    I completely understand what you're saying. Since that Repair did not resolve the issue, our best option is to uninstall iTunes and its components and redownload it. To do this, we will follow the steps in this article: Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Rebekah:
    First, we will want to quit iTunes and/or Apple Software Update if those are open at this time.
    SAMIA:
    Rebekah, the instructions you gave says, "For Windows XP, follow these steps to remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows XP."
    SAMIA:
    I closed all applications
    SAMIA:
    Also, my iTunes doesn't open anymore after the new failed installation.
    Rebekah:
    The section that says "For Windows XP…" is in case we opened up the wrong article, as we have the one for Windows Vista, 7, or 8. There is a link to click ("these steps") in those directions that would take us to the article for uninstalling on a Windows XP.
    Rebekah:
    So no worries! We have the right article!
    Rebekah:
    On the computer, we will want to click on Start > Control Panel. In Control Panel, we will click the "Uninstall a program" link.
    SAMIA:
    I thought so after doing a little exploration.
    SAMIA:
    done
    Rebekah:
    Alright, we'll want to select iTunes from the list of currently installed programs. Then we will click Uninstall. When asked if you would like to remove iTunes, let's click Yes.
    Rebekah:
    After the uninstallation is complete, we don't want to restart your computer if you're prompted.
    SAMIA:
    Done
    Rebekah:
    Then if you see other iTunes entries on the list, we'll want to remove them the same way.
    Rebekah:
    Then we will remove all instances of Apple Software Update the same way you removed iTunes.
    SAMIA:
    Okay, but do I have to remoce iCloud as well?
    SAMIA:
    Rebekah, I received the same error message again when uninstalling
    Rebekah:
    We actually do not need to remove iCloud. After the Apple Software Update, we will want to remove all instances of Apple Mobile Device Support
    Rebekah:
    How strange! Are you able to click past that and allow the process to continue or has it stopped it completely?
    SAMIA:
    I am unable to uninstall iTunes either
    SAMIA:
    Stopped completely
    SAMIA:
    I treied clicking Repair
    Rebekah:
    Alright, after trying the Repair option, let's see if it will allow us to continue uninstalling or not.
    SAMIA:
    I tried that but unfortunately, it isn't working. I still get that same message with error code 2324.
    Rebekah:
    This error code is not something that I am finding in my sources, Samia. So there is a chance that it is being caused with the Windows computer itself. However, I did find a link that may be able to help with uninstalling iTunes from Windows' support site: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    SAMIA:
    Rebekah, you're a genius! It worked! iTunes is no longer there. What next?
    Rebekah:
    Awesome! I'm glad that worked!
    Rebekah:
    To be sure I am on the same page, what was the last component we uninstalled?
    SAMIA:
    iTunes
    SAMIA:
    Shall I remove the Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, and Apple Software Update
    Rebekah:
    That is correct! However, we do want to uninstall it in the order I mentioned above. So Apple Software Update first, Apple Mobile Device Support next, and then Apple Mobile Device Support.
    SAMIA:
    Got it, but is the second one to uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support OR Apple pplication Support?
    Rebekah:
    The second one is Apple Mobile Device Support.
    Rebekah:
    The Application Support will be the last component we uninstall.
    SAMIA:
    Thanks! I'm on it.
    SAMIA:
    Done! ll 3 are gone, well 4 with iTunes. Now what?
    Rebekah:
    Awesome! Also, I just noticed that I accidentally typed Apple Mobile Device Support twice, I do apologize for any confusion! Now we will remove all instances of Bonjour and then remove all instances of Apple Application Support.
    SAMIA:
    There was only 1 instance with Bonjour. I don't know what the instances are for Apple Application Support
    Rebekah:
    Yes, Bonjour is often only listed once. Is the Apple Application Support listed at all?
    SAMIA:
    No
    SAMIA:
    Since I removed it
    Rebekah:
    Oh, perfect! If it was removed, we should be set!
    Rebekah:
    We have removed iTunes and its components now! From here, our next step is to restart the computer. Then once you reboot, you can redownload iTunes from apple.com/itunes
    Rebekah:
    That should allow you to download iTunes!
    SAMIA:
    Shall I downloaad the latest vesion?
    Rebekah:
    You will want to first restart the computer as shown in the article. That will ensure that this process goes smoothly and that everything was removed correctly! Then you can try downloading iTunes again.
    SAMIA:
    Okay, thanks Rebekah!
    Rebekah:
    You're very welcome! I'm glad I could help! And of course if you have any issue after the reboot and download, you can always chat us back, as chat is open 24 hours! You will just need to give your case number and the next Advisor would have all my notes!
    SAMIA:
    Thanks again for all your help, for I couldn't have managed with out it. Have a nice day!
    Rebekah:
    You're very welcome! I know how important iTunes is and I'm glad we could get you on a path to resolution!
    Rebekah:
    I hope you have a lovely day!
    Rebekah:
    It's been a pleasure speaking with you! Thanks for chatting with us Samia. If you don't have any more questions, select End Chat from the upper left corner of the chat window.
    SAMIA:
    Will do, thanks.

  • I have Adobe Acrobat XI standard, but would like to trial the "compare documents" feature on Pro. I tried to download a trial version of Pro, but the installer indicated that "it detected a more fully featured version of the product" - presumably my stand

    Okay - just realised that the last screen was just asking for a "title" for my question!
    I have Adobe Acrobat XI standard, but would like to trial the "compare documents" feature on Pro. I tried to download a trial version of Pro, but the installer indicated that "it detected a more fully featured version of the product" - presumably my standard version? - and stopped installation. It is not clear to me what my options are for either upgrading to Pro, or selectively purchasing the "compare documents" plugin (if possible). I am using what is presumably an Enterprise version of acrobat (i.e. my employer owns it, not me) - so not sure what limitations that results in. I think this is a simple question, but would be grateful for advice.

    - You can't install Acrobat Pro alongside Acrobat Standard. You will need to remove Standard to be able to install Pro.
    - You (probably) can't upgrade your license if it's a part of an enterprise license. The entire license will need to be upgraded.
    - It's not possible to install just the "Compare Documents" function as a sort of add-on to Acrobat Standard.

    thank you for your support :)
    i am actually talking about the toshiba power saver for P30 for windows xp, driver installer is 32bit.
    however, the sofware insatller setup.exe is 16bit, you can notice it by reading it's description with windows os.
    of course, if you disable 16 bit support, you can't install toshiba power saver anymore.

  • CC desktop app (windows) doesn't show latest versions of CC apps for installation. How do I fix it?

    I've been a CC member since the start; about 6 months ago the CC desktop app on my main desktop PC stopped showing the latest versions of most applications (for example Photoshop, Illustrator, etc., only showed the 'CS' version), and stopped giving me alerts of updates. It still works fine on my (much lower spec) laptop.
    I tried the various fixes (e.g. deleting the opm.db file in 'AppData/Local/adobe/OODB) but it didn't resolve the problem; I had a work around (downloading installation files from the Adobe website, and using the 'check updates' function in all of the apps).
    With the recent up update, and the release of the '(2014)' versions, these work arounds no longer work. The CC Desktop app still does not show most current applications, and trying to download apps from the Adobe website sends me to the CC Desktop app, which then doesn't download the new application.
    I foolishly thought a completely clean installation might help, so I uninstalled all my Adobe apps, ran the 'cleaner' app, & tried over ... things have gone from bad to worse, because I can't even get the old (pre-'2014') versions of the desktop applications to download in order to install.
    My immediate problem is not having a working version of Photoshop on my main PC - the 'CS' version is available to me through the CC Desktop app, but not the 'CC' or 'CC (2014)' versions.
    The spec of the PC is above the minimum spec for the 'CC' apps, so I don't think that is the problem.
    - Win 7 Pro SP 1, 64-bit
    - Intel i7-3770K (3.5Ghz quad core)
    - 16GB RAM
    - 650GB free disk space
    - etc.
    Any ideas welcomed as to how to resolve this; I'm at my wits end ...
    Ian

    Thanks for the reply Rave, but unfortunately that does not address my problem - my PC comfortably exceeds the minimum spec for the applications.
    Of the three onward links from that page -
    (1) "For additional information please see Creative Cloud Help | Missing CC apps from my Creative Cloud Desktop app" is a dead link (>"Sorry, this page is not available")
    (2) "If you have confirmed that your computer meets and exceeds all of the listed System requirements then please see CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed." I had already worked through the 'solutions' on that page, culminating in the (bad) advice in 'Solution 4' which is what has got me into this current mess;
    (3) "If you have already have Download Adobe Creative Cloud application you can use Download Center : Adobe Creative Cloud for your Product Download." isn't helpful as the download links send me back to the CC Desktop app, & it still won't allow me to download the 'CC' or 'CC (2014)' applications.
    Thanks again, but do you have any other suggestions?
    Ian

  • Downloaded the 11.0 version of Mozilla Firefox to replace old version 9.0. After installation, and on the first launch attempt, received a message: "MOZCRT.dll missing" I researched, tried the prescribed remedy below, to no avail. Please advise.

    Here is the unsuccessful solution I attempted (3 times):
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
    Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then disable Virtualization and reinstall Firefox.<br />

    Hi,
    You need atleast 4 GB minimum for installing only Essbase and HSS version 11.1.2, performance would be little slow but it works.If you are using essbase even with HSS security you don't actually need the foundation service running, you can just run essbase and it should authenticate.
    Obviously you need it running if you want to provision or if you want to run workspace.
    Cheers

  • Problem in Pointbase databse version update during JES 2005Q4 Installation

    I am installing JES 2005Q4 on Solaris 10
    During component selection under Sun Java System Aplication Server Enterprise Edtion 8.1, subcomponents Pointbase Database and Sample Applications are in conflict with the version.
    Please let me know if there is any suggestion in that line
    -gotham

    Is this first time you are attempting to install application server? or Do you have any installation on the system from prior versions?
    This normally happens when the prior version of components or any incomplete installatation are found on the system.
    You can run the uninstaller from '/var/sadm/prod/SUNWentsys4' to clean up any partial / incomplete installations from the system. (In case, You've attempted to install something before).

  • Component version No change After EHP5 Installation

    Hi, ALL
    I already finish the installation of EHP5 for ERP.
    If I go to System --> Status
    I see component version SAP ECC 6.0
    How can i see in component version SAP ECC 6.0 EHP5
    I
    f i enter to the next level  i see for example
    SAP_ABA     702     0006
    SAP_BASIS     702     0006
    SAP_APPL     605     0003
    THanks.

    Thanks to all, I know that my system is on EHP5 and in EHP2 for netweaver.
    Just I guess that as in Solution Manager the component version must be include EHP5..
    In solution Manager I can see for example
    .. SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0
    Thanks
