Backup problem with new 8900

I am a fairly competent BB user and have just upgraded from a Pearl to the blessed 8900. I love it so far, but I'm having problems backing it up. I can start it ok and it gets about halfway done the backup and then when it gets to "Smart Card Options," it fails. It says, "Error backing up databases." I've tried messing with the options and even removing the card and trying. It always stops at the same spot no matter what I do. Please help so I can rest in peace that my data is safe. 
Thank you.

Go to Solution.

I have all the data from my old device on a file on my computer and I can back up my old device just fine. But that's not the problem at all. 
The problem is that I can't back up my new data on my new 8900. I already did a restore initially when I got the 8900 to put all my data onto it. But now I would like to back up all my new contacts, calendar items and everything else. But I am getting the error as explained above.

  • Problems with new 8900 phone

    Hi there
    I've just upgraded from a Blackberry 8310 to a new 8900.
    However I have some bugbears with the new phone which I cannot seem to fathom.
    (the old 8310 had a trackball problem and wouldnt go up or down. I replaced the trackball but a piece of the solder underneath the trackball also fell out).
    Anyway on the 8900, please can someone help with :
    1) When I upgraded O2 said there was satnav built in but I cannot find anything on the phone. I have maps... is that it? The 8310 had Telmap on it.
    2) Now for the biggest issue. When using the browser I can only navigate using the trackball which controls a mouse/cursor. On the 8310 there was 2 ways of navigating the web. One was using the mouse/cursor and there was also another way which was a mobile view which meant you could navigate using the trackball and it would select text much more easily. Unfortunately I cannot say exactly how it was worded as my sim no longer works in the old phone.
    3) Finally I can never get the sim card out. When you take the battery out and push in the sim card. There is a piece of black plastic which you push the simcard into. However this will not move in any direction so the only way of releasing the simcard is to literally bend it with a pair of tweezers and lever it out.
    Many thanks for reading.
    It looks a good phone. I like the layout but at the moment I wish I'd got another 8310.
    Phil

    1. The 8900 has built in GPS. Go to Options > Advanced > GPS. Press Menu > Refresh GPS.
    You should have BlackBerry Maps included with the device software.
    2. Your cursor "arrow" is the new navigation tool in the new browser.
    3. I'm not sure. I don't have a 8900 in front of me, but I have had two, and never had any issue removing/replacing the SIM card. I would recommend using something like a pencil eraser to push upwards and out on the SIM card. I wouldn't bend the SIM. Ask someone at a retail store to show you how to release the SIM card.

  • Restoring backup problems with new hard drive

    Recently had to replace my hard drive (OS X Tiger 10.4.10). I had backed up iLife, iTunes and documents using the Backup utility (saving to external hard drive) and iDisk, so thought all would be well. My new hard drive has the updated OS (Leopard 10.5.5) and I cannot work out how to retrieve my stuff.
    The Time Machine application obviously has no memory of my backup plans, and 'Backup' doesn't seem to exist, so I can't follow the restore instructions on that application. I can see that iLife and iTunes have been backed up on my external hard drive - I just can't see how to put the contents back. I have re-installed iLife and the iTunes application is ready and waiting.
    My iDisk is completely empty - which means something is wrong or I completely misunderstood the point of it...
    Any help gratefully received

    Hi Lupe!
    If you post the exact model number of the Seagate drive, I'll give the jumper setting a look to see it there is a limitation on setting to "slave." I wasn't aware anyone was doing that.
    As near as I can tell, the basic problem is that the first-gen 733 QuickSilver does not have support for "large hard drives." That means that 128G is the maximum it can deal with. You can use the 160G drive, however, by using Disk Utility to create a partition of under 128G, say 125G, leaving the rest of the drive unformatted. Then it should work. Select the partition format as Mac Extended HFS+ Journaled.
    Your G4 is older than the ones that this forum covers, thus the difference in hard drive capacities and also how hard drives are jumpered. You may want to make friends with folks in the forums for older G4s here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=113
    Some of the same people haunt both forums so it's not a big deal if you decide to stay here. We're glad to have you either way!

  • Time machine backup problem with new MacPro

    On my new MacPro (6 core, 32gb, 1TB ssd) I am trying to do my initial Time Machine backup. The MacPro has 350 GB of files on it. When I start Time Machine it shows that it is backing up 355 GB of data onto the 4 TB LaCie drive and the time to complete is about 20 minutes. (The extrnal HD is excluded from the backup list). When it nears the end of the 355 gb backup all of a sudden it just starts increasing both the number of gbs copying and number of gbs left to copy (both numbers just start going up incrementally together) way beyond the initial 355 gbs - I've stopped it at 910 GBs several times. Tried different external hard drives, restarts etc.
    Any ideas what is going on?
    Thanks

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • Wifi problems with new ipad

    I'm trying to learn how to correct wifi problems with new iPad.  It is the wifi only, 64GB model.  I want to be able to use it at work, where we have a great wifi network.  I can usually connect to our network with no problem, but after an hour or so my iPad loses the network.  When I try to reconnect, I see that the network is showing full strength reception, but I get the error message from the iPad that I am "Unable to join" the network.  My iPhone connects to the same network seamlessly, as do all of the other iPhones of my co-workers and the older generation iPads that some of our staff has.
    At other locations, I typically have no problems (home, apple store, etc.) but I have had the same situation pop up at a coffee shop where I could see that there was a wifi network available, but I could not join it even though it was the shop's free wifi. 
    I have tried turning the iPad off, turning off wifi and turning it back on again, and forgetting the wifi network in question.  I can't think of any other methods that are available to an end user to correct the problem. 
    I have already gone to the Apple store to swap out the unit, and the newer one is having the same symptoms. 
    Can anyone offer any advice here?  This is quite frustrating.

    No problem! Have a read at this most interesting article which has special significance as regards your models!

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router &amp; then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • List of Problems with new Web Mail

    List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
    - At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
    - Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down.  It should show at least 26, preferably all available
    - After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
    - Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
    - There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to.  The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices.  The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear.  I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either.  I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7.  NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser.  Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
    - Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
    - Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear.  No time to read the error message either.
    - No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same.  Very unclear.
    - How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok?  I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
    This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff.  If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!  
    Thanks!

    Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

  • Before I buy has there been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Before I spend my hard earned cash does anyone know if there has been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Hello richard from Folsom:
    Are you inside or outside?  (  I could not resist, I lived in Sactown).
    Anyway, advice is frequently worth what you pay for it, and mine is free.
    If you want it, buy it.  The posts above are right on the mark (except waiting is probably overly-cautious).  The best advice (from anamusic) is to buy the extended warranty - well worth the money.

  • I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.

    I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.
    At first I thought it might be because I was using simultaneously my old iPhone 4S so it somehow realized the emails where being pushed to another device and the it marked as read, this has nothing to do since I have deleted the email account from the iPhone 4S

    Contact the email provider for assistance with their service.

  • Premiere Elements 13 , Problems with new text/titles

    Premiere Elements 13, bisher keine Probleme. Nachdem die Filmlänge etwa 15 Minuten beträgt immer größere Probleme Titel/texte einzugeben. Wartezeiten sind extrem lange oder Programm stürzt ganz ab.

    High ATR,
    Computer running on Widows 7 ,64 Bit System, Service Pack 1, Processor AMD Phenom(tm) X4 945 3.00 Ghz;RAM 8 GB
    Grafikkarte: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
    If the video on the timeline is longer than 10 minutes the problem will be remarkable. The response times adding a title is getting longer(2-15 seconds).
    As the video is now 18 minutes the response time is after each action(resizing of letters or any changes of the text) up to 30 seconds or the program crashes completely.
    Project settings are the following:
    General HD 1080i; 29,97frames/second; Video:1920v 1080 H, 30 fps
    Video: maximale Bittiefe, Dateiformat i-frame only mpeg, Kompressor MPRG i-Frame, Standbilder optimieren
    The video is a mixture  of full HD videos 1920x 1080 .mov and pictures up to 4608x3456 pixels.
    When the program crashes I remarked that the main memory RAM(8Gb) was fully used by the premiere program. Might there be a problem?
    Thank you for your service.

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.
