BBM contacts restore after an OS upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1

Torch 9810, OS 7.1, SD card support with 14G free space
After an upgrade of BBM8.5, my phone could not complete booting fo several time until I flashed it but with OS7.0, this did not restore my BBM contacts; I used my computer to restore phonebook contacts and other data but BBM contacts still was not loaded.
I re-installed BB8.5, still to no avail. 3 days later I was re-prompted to sign in with my BB ID and I got all my 181 BBM contacts back. (Is this a remotely initiated action?)
After this I re-installed BB OS 7.1 and again I lost my BBM contacts. I have tried everything possible to get these BBM contacts but no way; but I am sure it is somewhere in RIM remote server.
These are my questions:
Does BB OS 7.1 supports the easy backup and restore of BBM contacts just as it does for phone contacts?
Can you make it easy for BB users to be able to restore BBM contacts as it is possible with phonebook contacts?
On the custom restore option on the BB Desktop software, what is tab to select for BBM contact restore after an upgrade/update?
Does Blackberry protect saves BBM contact details?
Is there an unshared info/law that must be respected in getting back BBM contacts, like "wait 72hrs after an upgrade before getting back your BBM contacts?????????
I do not have problem with Phonebook restore at all. That comes easy with my computer back-up but BBM contacts restore is a pain in the neck! Please help.
NB: I need to add that various suggestions seen on the site have not worked and I saw that my suffering on BBM contact restore is almost becoming an epidemic!!!

    What OS is on the Install/Restore DVD that came wit your G5? If Tiger 10.4.x, you will need a black, retail Leopard install DVD. There is no free download of Leopard, only free updates once you have installed the base OS.
    First use your Mac's Install/Restore DVD to install an OS & apps. Then upgrade the OS.
    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.

  • Can I remove photoshop cs2 after I have upgraded from cs2 to cs5?

    Can I remove Photoshop CS2 after I have upgraded from CS2 to CS5?  I upgraded from CS2 to CS5 quite a while ago and I have never removed CS2.  Will it affect CS5 to remove the old CS2 if it was an upgrade?

    If I were you I would just delete the installed  Adobe CS2 folder. Adobe CS2 uninstaller my remove settind CS5 made to your system after CS2.   The CS2 uninstaller may try to restore settings to a point in time where there was no Photoshop installed on your system.  If you do a CS un-install you may need to then Install CS5 on top of itself the update cs5 for the install will not have the updates you will be back at CS5 level .

  • Adding a new contact anymore after the IOS5 upgrade!

    I can not add a new contact anymore after the IOS5 upgrade - the " + " sign is gone? - how can this be fixed?

    I think cpohlink has made a good observation.  The same issue- no plus sign- is showing up in both calanders and contacts for some people.   I have the plus sign on both apps, and do not have the problem at all.  So what is the difference?
    I have i cloud turned off for everything but find my phone.  And i am not synced to any external calander or contact list except my phone.
    Change your cloud settings to off, and see if that does it.  Also, think about what other clalanders/ contact lists you might be syncing with.  If they ae considered the 'master' then that may make the pad pad a slave, and unable to add entries.
    Related question, can you edit entries, or is that blocked as well?

  • MISSING BBM CONTACT CATEGORIES AFTER RESTORING

    Hello all... I recently backed up and wiped my 9700 and upgraded toOS 5.0.0.442 on my device.... I then downloaded BBM 5.0.0.57 using BB App world into my device and then restored the backup file using DM....
    My problem is that I lost several BBM Contact Categories... I had previously had 7 categories and I'm now left with only 3 categories....!! This has happened before when I wiped and restored phone from a DM backup... but usually when I used the advanced DM restore feature to restore only the phonebook and BBM contacts... it usually works... but this time.... my contact categories are permanently gone...! Anybody know a fix to this problem...?
    Please help... thanks in advance...

    I have the same problem with my 9700, how you resolve this?

  • ABAP Query Miising after ECC6.0 Upgrade from 4.7

    Hi
    We are upgrading from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. After upgrading, we found that ABAP queries that were there in 4.7 are missing. It gives an error that AQZZ####... Program not found.
    What could be the problem, is there something we left out while upgrading?
    Regards
    Ramya

    so you say, the tcode directly calls a program? The generated program name might be different between releases.
    A tcode for query has to look like:
    Create a transaction calling transaction START_REPORT with the following parameters/attributes filled :
    D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE= AQ "parameter indicating Abap Query
    D_SREPOVARI-REPORT= '  ' "Query User group
    D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT= '  ' "Query name
    Did you check the standard / global areas in SQ01?

    I compared the registry with a working system but the Counters - and all other keys - looked fine.
    At the same time as upgrading a DC a colleague was updating an unrelated server, and he started to see similar events in the event log (but for the Dell OpenManage Essentials service, not ADWS). The error was complaining about KERNELBASE.dll which set my
    spider sense tingling. We knew that this server had Windows Updates pending. Fully updating it solved the problem on that server.
    I solved the ADWS problem in the end by fully Windows Updating the DC. In particular, the ADWS Service started successfully after installing KB2919355 and rebooting. That also
    'unlocked' a further 59 updates pending. 
    After the in-place upgrade I always fully Windows Update but I'm 99% certain that KB2919355 did NOT show up when I did a Check for Updates straight after a reboot so I thought the DC was up-to-date. I then spent hours investigating the ADWS problem and rebooted
    as part of the diagnostics. It was then that I noticed on the logon screen that there were updates pending...
    Moral of the story? Windows Update, then Update again, and again, and again. The length of time it takes to Windows Update after an upgrade from 2008R2 to 2012R2 is painful though.

  • Folders are BLAH after 10.5 upgrade from 10.4

    After upgrading from 10.4.10 to 10.5, all the existing Folder icons in All areas are a grey-blue, non-descript icons.
    It's a pretty ugly mess. Any one else have ideas?

    Personally I created a set of replacement icons and use them. See here for a comparison, and a set of the icons I'm using now:
    http://homepage.mac.com/francines/icons/icons.html
    Not that even my icons are all that visible in List or Column view--the default size is just too tiny and the other size option is just too dang big, there isn't a choice that is "just right" (we need a slider, to get something about half way between the two choices available).

  • No source signal after running an upgrade from Vista to Win7

    I have an HP S2031 monitor and I am getting a No Source Signal message after I ran an upgrade from Vista to Win7 operating system.
    Computer is running and all cables are connected properly. 

    Seems like it is not a monitor problem.
    Disconnect hard disk and disassemble the memory RAM.
    Switch on the pc, then switch it off again.
    Re-connect hard disk and ONE RAM stick only.
    Retry boot with one stick after the other.
    Which pc do you have?
    Do you have an additional graphics card?
    Which output port do you use for the graphics.
    How is it connected to the monitor?
    Which port at the monitor side?

  • Getting error after administrator who upgraded from CS3 to CS4

    Hi,
    We have had an administrator who upgraded from CS3 to CS4.
    However, any of our other users still using CS3 now get the
    following error message:
    “The website is being administered with a newer version
    of Contribute. For more information contact this website's
    administrator."
    Do you know any way around this issue?
    Thanks,

    No they don't have to, at least I think so. If your

  • Logic Express 9 Crashes after Snow Leopard Upgrade from Tiger

    I just upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I have yet to install iLife, though I have it. I have installed Logic Express. Everytime I attempt to pull it up, it crashes with some sort of kern protection failue. Can anyone advise me?

    Hi Cris,
    These might be Obvious and things you have already done... But...
    Since doing the Upgrade... Have you Run Software Update... Repaired Permissions and Restarted...?
    Also how did you Put Logic on... From the Original Install Discs...?
    And, I'm not sure... But Logic Express maybe expecting to see iLife Installed...

  • Changed contact name after 10.2 upgrade

    After I upgraded my Z10 to v10.2.0.424 my contact entry name changed from my name (format: first last name) to my birthday (format: YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00)?!?!  I went to edit my contact entry and I can chenge everyhing but the name.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    it appears I didn't have the user's BBM PIN entered.  when i entered it into their contact, saved.  REOPENED the contact, their first and last name showed up.
    Weird but true.

  • IPhone 3GS requires restore after 3.01 upgrade failure

    I just got home from a 10-day trip, during which I merrily collected 50+ valuable contacts on my shiny, new iPhone 3GS, and downloaded 10-15 apps, many for money.
    Immediately upon returning home, I tried to sync the contacts to google via iTunes/Windows on my desktop machine (since Apple limits me to one synching computer, I could not sync using my laptop) and after some mishigas (involving a failed 3.01 upgrade) found my iPhone totally dead (upon power-up showing an iTunes logo, a USB plug and an arrow between, and it then shuts down after 10 seconds.)
    iTunes is telling me I now have to ~restore~ the phone, a misleadingly innocuous term for wiping all the data, presumably including all those contacts that I collected and are not backed up.
    Please tell me I am not S-O-L, that Apple has some trick they can pull if I take it to the store, so that it will rescue all those contacts, and maybe even the apps.
    No, I did not jailbreak this iPhone. All I did was standard stuff, but a lot of it.
    --David.

    Great.. that did it!
    It was indeed backed up before the failed update, though I gather that is not the same a syncing. But all the contacts, photos and music returned, exactly as they were just before the backup. What did not come back, however, were apps downloaded since the prior backup, 10 days ago. I can redownload those for free, since I guess the store remembers the sale. All I have to do now is recall which ones I need to redownload, but that will happen naturally.
    What scared me here was the message that goes with restore, which does not mention the option to actually restore your data after wiping it out. Very strange use of language there.
    Now all I have to do is deal with the buggy syncing with google contacts, apparently well-documented elsewhere (changes in google contacts often do not get reflected on the phone; merging makes mistakes; etc).
    Thanks. --David.

  • Error Code 2300 on Restore after failed Os4 upgrade.

    Pretty simple. Attempted to upgrade to the new Os4 with a 2nd gen iPod touch. For whatever reason, iTunes recognizes it, but the update failed which sent it into recovery mode. After 6 attempts at a restore, error code 2300 doesn't fail to pop up while preparing the iPod for restore. I've also tried 3 different USB ports- aiming for different computers later in the day. I don't want to have to invest money into a newer iPod - even though this one is 1 1/2-2 years old just about. Thankfully music is on the computer happily waiting to be loaded back in - so the only issue is getting the iPod itself to restore or SOMETHING. Paper weight - no thanks.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I have the same issue. from what i've gathered the issue is with the data transfer via usb
