BB Storm Problems - Upgrade?

Hey guys,
I have had a BB Storm for a little more than a year and I can say that I am completely sick of it. I have taken the device back twice (and I'm going tomorrow to replace it again). The phone constantly messes up (screen freezes, can't unlock, touch screen is unresponsive, call quality is bad) and I am sick of it.
I have emailed the customer service and after two days they finally called. Once on the phone, he asked me to download the BlackBerry Desktop manager and told me that it would take 40 minutes to download (it took 5 minutes). He never called back. I am tired of jumping through hoops.
Is there any way at all to upgrade early without the outrageous early termination fees? I'm about to go off to college and I would really like a phone that doesn't mess up every few months.
Thanks for the help,
Ryan

If your line is the primary line on the account, you can upgrade after one year using the annual upgrade option - you get the two year discounted pricing, there is a $20 fee for upgrading early, and you sign a new 2 year contract.
If you are not the primary line, this is not an option. But if you are on a family plan, is there another line that is eligible for an upgrade that you could use? Then that line could use your upgrade in another 7 or 8 months when your line becomes eligible.
Or you can go to ebay or craigslist and find a phone there that will work better for you until your line is eligible to upgrade.

Problem Upgrading to Apex 3.1 on XE

I am running into a problem upgrading Apex to 3.1 on Oracle XE.
Hardware and Software:
Database: Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
PL/SQL Web Toolkit Version: 10.1.2.0.4
Host O/S: MS Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2
Host Hardware: AMD Athlon 64 Processor, 2.2 GHz, 1.87 GB RAM
Background:
This is a lab host. I am working through the full installation process so that I can set up XE and Apex on development and production hosts, the end in mind being to develop a simple application using XE/Apex instead of Access 2003, which is used heavily in this shop.
It seems to me that upgrading to Apex 3.1 would be a good thing to do up front instead of developing in the version which ships with XE (2.1, I believe) and performing the upgrade later.
I installed XE going with full defaults. Nothing at all tricky. I was able to connect to http://localhost:8080/apex without any trouble and log in as system.
I then followed these Apex upgrade instructions, very carefully:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.1_and_xe.html
After I ran into trouble (see below), I reviewed this post and used it to double-check my work:
How to upgrade to Apex 3.1
I have worked through this a number of times, each time ending up with the same error.
The Problem...
After the upgrade, when I navigate to http://localhost:8080/apex, I receive the following error:
wwv_flow.app_not_found_footer_err
wwv_flow.err wwv_flow.app_not_found_err
OK
I reviewed this posting, which suggests that I upgrade my PL/SQL Web Toolkit:
apex 3.0 error wwv_flow.app_not_found_footer_err after new installation
I am perfectly willing to try this, but I am not sure how to obtain the latest correct version of the web toolkit for this particular version of the database. Any tips on where I might find this?
I also note that the posting says there should be 10 SQL files in the apex/builder directory. I only have 5, but I just downloaded this zip file a few days ago and assume this is the correct number of files. If it isn't, where could I find the correct zip?
Any other suggestions about the root cause of this issue would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Well, like Sherlock Holmes said, "when you have elminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth." Or, something like that.
Thanks Joel, it was the files. I examined the zip file I originally downloaded and, sure enough, there were 10 files. I extracted it again and, for some reason, this time it only pulled one of the SQL files out, not even five as it did the first time. In addition, it also skipped about half the language folders.
To get it work, I used the windows built-in zip to open the file, navigated to the apex/builder folder, selected all of the SQL files and language folders, then copied and pasted them into c:\apex\builder.
I then restored the database, ran the install again, and everything worked just fine: I can access http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin and log in.
I'm not sure what the issue is, a problem with the zip file or (ok, more likely) a problem with the built-in windows zip tool. I used 7-zip (www.7-zip.org) to extract the file on my workstation and all 10 files and 9 language folders came out just fine.
The bottom line is, it works now, thanks again for the help.
-Tom
PS - I did not install the web toolkit upgrade.

Problems upgrading from OS 8.1 to OS 9.2.2

Thank you for any help you can give me.
I have some additional problems upgrading from OS 8.1 to OS 9.2.2.
1. The keyboard is typing symbols, not normal letters. When I go to Key Caps it shows symbols and not normal letters. When I was running OS 8.1 the keyboard typed fine.
2. I also am have trouble with windows closing as I open new windows. Everytime I click to open a new folder the old folder closes.
3. Copying files. When I drag a file it makes a new copy on the desktop.
How did I goof up going from OS 8.1 directly to OS 9.2.2?
All these problems were fine while running under OS 8.1.
I believe this computer came with OS.8.6 installed on it but I got it with OS 8.1.
Any help you can pass on to me would be greatly appreciated.
I am typing this on my Dell PC.
Thanks a million,
Jim
iMac G3 333 Mac OS 9.2.x

Easy, I just insert my OS 8.1 System Software into the tray loading CD and choose it as the start up disk in the control panel. I restart the computer and it is running off of OS 8.1 instead on OS 9.2.2. I looked for another keyboard today at a used computer store but they didn't have one for the iMac. I need to find one as all my research indicates that it is somehow connected to the option key. But then again everything works fine under OS 8.1. Quite a puzzle to me. Again thanks for the page tip on Firmware. Jim - PS, I did pick up a zip drive that connects to USB ports.

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Ok. Thanks for your help, but removing that package was not the solution because I hadn't installed it. The only reference I had about that package was
5:13# locate linux-uvc-svn ~koven
/var/lib/pacman/local/linux-uvc-svn-238-1
/var/lib/pacman/local/linux-uvc-svn-238-1/depends

/var/lib/pacman/local/linux-uvc-svn-238-1/files
/var/lib/pacman/local/linux-uvc-svn-238-1/install
So I decided to remove this folder and my problem was solved. Anyway I did some searches and nothing was found.

It seems that the update scripts got problems because we had used portalAdmin to add new data content types. The update scripts try to add new types too, but use hardcoded primary keys that will already be in use if new data content types are added by the administrator.

We now use Acrobat xi for special active forms we created that include certifications and signature fields, some of the forms are programmed to create other forms, will we have a problem upgrading to DC
Our users use a form template to create other adobe forms with calculated fields, signature fields (using digital signatures)
, and buttons. Will we be able to continue developing these forms if we upgrade to Acrobat DC?

Hi Alex ,
In general ,you would not have any issues and problems moving to Acrobat DC .It has a different user interface and with more enhanced features .
You would be able to develop the kind of forms you are referring to .
You could refer to the following document to get more information about Acrobat DC .

Will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

will i have problem upgrading from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to Maverick ?

Impossible to know. But I would make a backup before doing so, just in case. I would also do the following:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If you wish to save yourself a lot time should you need to reinstall Mavericks at some point in the future then see the following:
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
   2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this entire command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
     sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume
     /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time. When completed it would be wise to test the installer by checking that it boots the computer and is then ready for installation.

Not all Windows 8 features may be available on all PCs.
Your particular experience with Windows 8 will be determined by the capabilities of your PC.
HP is providing upgrade instructions and drivers will be available for most Windows 7 systems sold after 1st October 2011.
If you want to restore the original operating system after upgrading, you must create HP recovery media before you upgrade.
Please note that if you purchased your system prior to October 1, 2011, HP has not tested these PCs or developed Windows 8 upgrade instructions or drivers for them. Upgrading such systems may be difficult or impossible.

Windows 7 (and Windows Vista) PCs with touch screens will not have full Windows 8 touch capabilities after upgrade.
HP PCs with touch input hardware designed for Windows 7 (or Windows Vista) will provide a comparable experience for only two touch point applications after the upgrade to Windows 8. HP Windows PCs with touch input hardware will not support Windows 8 applications that require more than two simultaneous touch points. Additionally, Windows 8 edge swipes may not be available due to the recessed bezel on HP touch systems shipped with Windows 7 (and Window Vista).
HP TouchSmart Magic Canvas and HP TouchSmart applications are not compatible with Windows 8 and must be uninstalled before upgrading. Note that content created using the TouchSmart applications such as Graphitti will not be available after upgrading.
I did a "clean" install of Windows 8 on my HP TouchSmart 320-1120m CTO Desktop Computer and had NO issues at all. If you do an actual "upgrade", please be aware that much of the HP value-added software that came with the computer will have to be uninstalled before doing the upgrade. You may also run into other minor issues with other software already on the computer. The only way to go back to Windows 7, is to use the HP Recovery Discs you should have already created. If you haven't yet created these discs, do so BEFORE upgrading to Windows 8.

Problem upgrading and installing virtualbox-modules

Have some problems upgrading and installing virtualbox-modules

looking for inter-conflicts...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

Had to uninstall lirc nvidia and virtualbox-modules before I could upgrade the kernel and now I can't install the virtualbox-modules.
Anyone else who experienced the same problems?

virtualbox-modules depends on the kernel in core. If you want to use the kernel in testing, you'll need to rebuild the virtualbox-modules against it.
Virtualbox-modules will be fixed when kernel 2.6.26 will be moved in core. So you can wait if you prefer.

Problems upgrading from Panther 10.3.9 to Tiger

I am having problems upgrading my Mac 500mhtz which currently runs Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Panther). It starts the installation process, I choose the language that I want (EnglisH) then the next screebbn says " Alert - Thius software cannot be installed on this computer" . The options I have is Resart or Startup Disk . I don't understand whythis happening becasue I meet the requirements. I have about 6 gigs of space ti stall and from what I read Tiger needs 3 gigs. I have loked through many forums and have not found the answer to my question. Does anybody know the answer to this solution. I have also backed up my User profile and are planning on doing a clean install once when installing Tiger.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
That error frequently appears if you don't use the retail Tiger installer discs. Mac OS X installer discs are system specific or retail versions. You don't want to install another Mac's installer discs, for reasons my FAQ states here:
http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html#SYSTEMSPECIFIC
I'd also look that whole FAQ over and see whether or not you really are ready for an upgrade.
In addition, there is no such thing as a "clean install". Here are the various types of installation options available:

Problem Upgrading Kernel to he Current Level for ECC 6 V5R4M0 OS/400

Hello,
I am having problem upgrading my ECC 6.0 kernel to the current level (236), the steps I have done is
1) downloaded and copied following kernel fix to tmp folder under rootbin.
APYR3FIX.SAR,APYSAP.SAR,LODSAPKRN.SAR
2) Apply the above fix using following command
- APYR3FIX SID(SID) SAVF(R3FIX700U/APYR3FIX) SAVLIB(GEN700UOPT) KRNLIB(SAPSIDUC)
- APYR3FIX SID(SID) SAVF(R3FIX700U/APYSAP) SAVLIB(GEN700UOPT) KRNLIB(SAPSIDUC)
- APYR3FIX SID(SID) SAVF(R3FIX700U/LODSAPKRN) SAVLIB(GEN700UOPT) KRNLIB(SAPSIDUC)
Started applying new kernel
1) Copy sapexe.sar and sapexedb.sar into tmp folder i.e kern under rootbin.
2) created one file using notepad called parts ( w/o extension)
parts file having following content.
SAPEXE.SAR,
SAPEXEDB.SAR,
3) copied parts file into tmp folder.
4) Create new kernel library like SAPSIDUKRN using following command.
- CRTLIB LIB(SAPSIDUKRN)
5) Apply latest kernel to newly created kernel library using following command.
- LODSAPKRN DEV(STMF) MNTPNT('/tmp') KRNLIB(SAPSIDUKRN) USERDEF(YES) LIST('/tmp/parts')
When i run the command it says successfully completed, but no files are present in the newly created kernel. please guide me on how to proceed with this.
Thank You

Hi Vijay,
From reading your description I wonder if you simply mixed up directory names. In step 1) of the kernel load you mentioned directory kernel below rootbin. In the command you reference directory /tmp. Although LODSAPKRN should complain if any of the given objects is missing it might worth checking.
However, did you recognize there is a new option USERDEF(FLAT) available with the latest version (246) of LODSAKRN? This option is supposed to allow standard SAPEXE+SAPEXEDB packages being imported without having to provide the parts file. Check note 912575 if you are interested - english version should be getting updated today.
Regards,
Thomas
