BlackBerry App World from a desktop

Hi, I hope this is the right place for this, but I find that I have difficulty accessing the BlackBerry App World from a computer (IE or Chrome). Seems to work fine with FireFox.
The problem is the link:
http://appworld.blackberry.com
The default link from Google and if you manually type it will automatically redirect to:
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/?
Which would show you a blank page. If you remove the "?", the link will work.
The strange part is I tried it on another system (different network) and got the same result.
Any clue where else I can look? Thanks.

Hello,
I just tried all 3 browsers (Chrome, IE, and FireFox) and they all work the same for me. With the URL of http://appworld.blackberry.com, they each redirect to http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/? and display just fine...no blank page at all.
I noticed that IE was slower, but it did work. One thought...what version of IE? I know that many "active" pages have troubles with older IE versions. Mine is 10.0.9200.16540 and I recall having troubles with other pages even as recently as IE9.
Also, are you sure that your installation of Chrome is up to date? Mine is on "Version 26.0.1410.64 m". And have you checked various add-ons/extensions you might have in either? Those could be blocking the redirect and/or active components.
Good luck!

Can't sign to App World from any desktop PC

When logging in to App World from a desktop PC I get the following error
Unknown Error
An unknown error has occurred (EC )
To return to the home page please click here
The "click here" takes me back to the log in screen. I have tried at home and at work with both IE and FireFox. Then reset password just to test. That worked but still get the same error message. I have cleared the cache, etc. But that still doesn't help. There is no Error Code number just the EC in parenthesis.
This has been going on for about a week. I have no problem logging in from my phone, Torch 9800, or my PlayBook. Both devices log in and download just fine, just can't log in from a desktop PC.

I have seen in another thread this same error with no resolution. All I've seen are people trying to fix a problem on the PB when it is a desktop problem not the PB! I have had the same error from more than one desktop PC with nothing in common. What does it take to get an answer? This ec error is happening to more and more people with no help.

Unable to access "My payment options" or "Blackberry ID" from my account in Blackberry app world

Greetings,
I am able to log into my blackberry app world account using my email address and password. Once logged in, if I click "My payment options" or "Blackberry ID" I am prompted for my username and password again. Entering my email address and password will not work at this point - there is no error message, it just clears the username and password fields and prompts for the username and password again in a perpetual loop. I have tried using different browsers and different computers.
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It was not working from the device - so I tried from the PC and encountered the problem. After a power-cycle of my Blackberry it started to work.
Thank you, problem resolved.
Thx

Hello randykico and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
When you purchase an application in BlackBerry App World, you should be able to delete it and reinstall it without having to repurchase it.
When you reinstall App World to refresh your purchases:
Open BlackBerry App World.
Click the Menu key, and then click
My World
Enter in your BlackBerry ID email and password, then click Login
The application list will refresh automatically
For each application that needs to be reinstalled, select it under the Uninstalled section and click
Reinstall.
Let me know how yo make out

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
That error often presents when attempting to, while USB tethered to a PC, use the PC/browser web interface to AppWorld. I recommend you untether and instead use the on-device AW interface.
Good luck!

Hello !
Try connecting to App world after connecting your device to WiFi.
Or else,
There is an alternative for your problem to resolve.
What you do is connect your BlackBerry Smartphone with USB cable to Internet enabled desktop/laptop.
Go to the link mentioned below:
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/
On top right of the page there is a option "Sign In".
Login with your BlackBerry ID and password.
From here you can download all as you do it for Appworld.
Hope this resolves your Problem!

Cannot update blackberry app world. It shows some weird error.

Here is the story. I was using os7 and and 2 days back I upgraded it to 7.1. As usual after upgrading the os, I updated pre installed apps. Like Facebook and bbm and did a re start. After re staring I found that there is no Facebook and bbm icon. I went to app world and searched for it. At the bbm screen there was no button, no re install, delete or anything. On facebook page there was a re install button through which I re installed it and again did a re boot. But again the same thing. So I though of re installing the firmware. I wiped the device via bbsak and installed the firmware via loader.exe (later I also tried with blackberry desktop manager). Now after upgrading when I went to update my app world, it re directed me to browser where I clicked download and then an error came up. I have attached a pic. Now I am unable to upgrade my blackberry app world. I tried several things like removing app world and again trying to Download it from browser, re installing firmware, downgrading and then again upgrading to 7.1 but all in vain. Please help, as I don't have any clue what's wrong and what to do. 
P. S: It's my first blackberry, and I bought it unlocked 5 days back. And I don't use BIS. I tried downloading app world via WiFi and via mobile data. 
 
Here is the error shown 
 
Error: Invalid manifest or application descriptor. 
 
The "MIDlet-Name" attribute is missing

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
Please try this sequence:
1) Remove both AppWorld AND the Identity App from your BB
KB10040 How to view or remove installed applications on a BlackBerry smartphone
If it requests that you reboot the BB, do so
2) Do a Batt-Pull reboot (power on, remove battery, wait, insert battery, wait), even if redundant to the one you did in step 1.
3) Install (on your BB) a fresh copy of AppWorld (during which a fresh version of the Identity App should also install)
http://blackberry.com/appworld/download
Again, if it requests to reboot, do so.
4) Do another Batt-Pull reboot
5) See if it now works.
Cheers!

Unable to update latest BlackBerry App World software

I have tried several times to update the BlackBerry App World software on my Blackberry Curve 8520. But the update has not happened.
I have connected my mobile to the desktop and Connection to smart phone is successful. It did show my PN on the Browser. Updation of the App World Software just goes on without any info that it is complete. I left the device for the whole day.
So I am unable to download any software on my blackberry device.

Error "907 invalid COD" occurs when trying to upgrade my Blackberry App World.

Hi there. My name is Molopi Mashinini and I'm using a Blackberry Bold Touch 9900. My problem is that I'm struggling to upgrade my Blackberry App World, before it downloads the application, it gives me a message saying that there's a module that already exists on my phone and that its going to be replaced. When the downloading process get to the end at 3137kb, it gives me an error message that says 907 invalid COD. Now I don't know what to do because even the Blackberry Application icon doesn't give me an option to delete it. Please help me because I can't even download or upgrade the applications on my phone.

I'm still getting the same error message when I try to download the application and I still can't delete the application from my phone because it doesn't give me an option to delete it.
Yes, I think we've discussed that more than once.
timmyKLB wrote:
I tried all the step you gave me. Nothing seems to be working.
And I still cannot tell exactly what that means (refer to the first half of post 6 above).
timmyKLB wrote:
My main problem is that under the application list, I can't find the delete option for the application on the menu button.
Yes, we've discussed that as well a few times. Yet you have left me completely in the dark regarding how the use of the Desktop Software worked out.
timmyKLB wrote:
I'm even thinking of giving up because I followed all the steps but I just can't seem to delete the application.
That would be a choice only you can make. It would so greatly help me to help you if I could understand your situation better, most especially the precise results of the things I ask you to try. But, your responses continue to be so very general and vague, with multiple interpretations possible from your words, that I cannot understand how those things work out. Consequently, I am at a loss as to how to help you. I need to understand in order to help you, yet your words do not help me to understand, no matter how many times I seem to ask you for clarification. So I am even more lost than you are.

Blackberry App World Won't Run After Download & Install

I'm using Blackberry Tour 9630, v4.7.1.40, on Verizon service in the US.
I downloaded Blackberry App World 1.1.0.20, using the Application Center Menu. After I installed App World, it prompted me to reboot my phone. Now the App Center Menu show that App World is installed, but when I try to open it I only get the App World screen with the Reinstall button. I have gone through the reinstall a couple of times but that doesn't help. An ideas how I can get App World to actually run??????????????????

where have you been gettting this reinstall button? on the main screen? in the application center?
try installing it from the blackberry website (if you were previously using the application center)
