How to reconnect Blackberry Blend

Hi there, I've been using Blackberry Blend without any problems for a few weeks now, but yesterday was given the notification on my computer that it could not connect and I needed to activate Blackberry Blend on my device from the settings menu. I see no 'reconnect' button and sliding allow connections on/off does nothing either. Opening the Blend application tells me I'm not paired with a device but gives no options to do anything about it. Any help would be appreciated.

Data services disabled? Be specific here. Data services under "mobile network" should be enabled. In many OS versions wifi wont even work with data services disabled there.
If your mobile device is not on wifi you can still connect via mobile network if you have that enabled under "device connections."

Blend Like a Boss With the BlackBerry Blend 1.2 Update

Reposted from Inside BlackBerry
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again now: BlackBerry Blend is the best productivity booster, and with the latest update, BlackBerry Blend 1.2, navigating and interacting with your BlackBerry device messages and content has never been easier.
Think about it for a second – How much more work could you complete by bringing the power of your BlackBerry to your computer and tablets?
Skeptical? Read these numerous reviews from media and users. Still not convinced? Donny Halliwell (you remember him) has had a few close calls, but thanks to Blend, was able to stay on top of things…TWICE.
What’s New with BlackBerry Blend 1.2
Available on PCs and tablets running Mac, Windows, iOS and Android, BlackBerry Blend 1.2 will take your productivity to the next level with these new features:
BlackBerry Blend dashboard & application navigation, updated user interface redesign: The BlackBerry Blend Dashboard has been newly designed based on customer feedback. You can now access the apps, settings, and help in the left navigation pane. You can move between apps from anywhere within BlackBerry Blend, so you can quickly and easily accomplish more.
Instant replies from BlackBerry Blend notifications: Notifications of BBM and text messages from any app let you respond or go to the BlackBerry Hub with a single touch. When receiving notifications, you can reply directly by clicking on the instant preview without having to go to the BlackBerry Blend dashboard. This allows you to quickly respond and get back to what you were doing without missing a step.
Centralized File Transfer Manager for file uploads and downloads: View the progress of a file transfer, cancel a transfer, and view previous transfers from the File Transfer Manager.
Spell Check within BlackBerry Blend: BlackBerry Blend now includes spellcheck so you can see and correct misspelled words before sending your messages.
Portrait Mode for tablets: Pick the best view for your content with the introduction of portrait mode for tablets.

BlackBerry Blend won't open on Mac OS X 10.10

Hi there,
I just recently got my BlackBerry Passport (awesome device!) and wanted to try BLEND on my MacBook Air.
My MacBook runs the Golden Master of Apples latest OS (10.10).
Blend installed fine and Link is working correctly. When I try to open Blend the icon just bounces up and down in the dock and after 5 - 7 seconds it stops bouncing. Blend didn't open and did not give out any error messages.
I tried uninstalling, cleaning and re-installing, nothing solved the problem.
Is anybody experiencing the same issues or does anyone have a solution or ideas on how to solve it?
Thx an advance!

Hi, I'm having the same problem, I have used blend only one time on my mac. Upgrading to yosemite didn't fixed it either.
When running it from the commandline i get the following errors.

Blackberry blend and q10

Hello there!
My blackberry Q10 just went through an OS update and is currently 10.3.1.1565. Together with this update came Blackberry Blend, but my computer and blackberry can not connect via wifi or usb cable - it constantly says - "update your device with the latest version of blackberry blend app".... Well, it is the very latest and pc blend is latest, but it cant still connect to it..
now i have seen somewhere that BB Q10 is not even listed as compatible phone for blend, so how come and why this Blend appeared in my phone??
Oh, i have windoes 8.1 in my PC and blackberry Link works with usb and wifi both, so its just Blend that doesnt work ....
Anyone? Help?

Do you get the sollusion or wait and wait and wai.......I have the same problem I cannot make contact with windows 8.1 and BB Q10

Please add more features to BlackBerry Blend

It would be nice if BlackBerry Blend allowed me to send and respond to Facebook messages from within BlackBery Blend instead of having to pick up my BlackBerry Z30 every time I receive a new Facebook message. I like how I can already send and respond to emails, text messages and BBM messages from within BlackBerry Blend but it would really be great if Facebook messages can be sent and responded to in the same way through BlackBerry Blend. In addition to that, it would be nice if the email signature that I configured on my BlackBerry Z30 will also show up whenever I use the BlackBerry Blend connection to either compose and send a new email or respond to a email conversation. Lastly, I'm not sure if this will be possible but it certainly would be amazing if my computer could display who's calling me when my BlackBerry is connected via Blend and maybe enable me to answer the call from my computer. That last suggestion might be me dreaming but it would be nice if the first two suggestions were implemented in a BlackBerry Blend update.

I'm guessing that since Muse is part of CC, an infinite array of other shapes can be created in Illustrator, so there's no need to put that capability in Muse.

Error Message Blackberry Blend isn't responding.

Blackberry Passport.
The error message reads Blackberry blend isn't responding. Please restart device or try connection again.
Let me be clear this isnt a new issue for me I just quit trying to get it work months ago. I've tried every trouble shooting step I can think of. It connects to blackberry link just fine. Blend even see the device is connected and automatically attemps to pair.
Blend app as been turn on using the quick setting and going into the traditional way.
I've tried Usb, Wifi, and mobile network connections to get this app to work.
I reinstalled both link and blend numerous times.
Disabled my anti virus.
Device connections are allowed on the phone.
Let me restate I can connect to BB Link using all 3 methods.
The system as a whole has been way more responsive since the latest update 10.3.1 but blend still doesnt work 4 months later.

Have you tried popping out the SD card and popping back in during a power cycle?No, I haven't tried that - what exact order are you suggesting? Unplug it, pull the SD card, plug it in and while booting, plug in the SD card? Or just unplug it, pull the SD card, reinsert the SD card and then plug it in or some other order or combination? And what will that do for it or how is it fixing the longer term issue? Thanks!

Blackberry Blend works on PC and MAC, but not iPad or Galaxy Note 10.1

Hi
I just cannot get Blackberry Blend to work on my iPad or Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
Blend is connecting find via my Win 7 laptop and also my iMac. Both they and the ipad and galaxy Note are on the same wifi network.
When I try Blend on the iPad, it shows the my BB Passport as a connection option, however when I select the Passport it tries to connect and then reconnect, however times out and goes back to select the device screen.
On the Galaxy, it gives me a message saying my BB is not connected to the network.
All units have the latest Blend version. My Passport runs the 10.3.0 OS.
Any suggestions?

Blend won't connect. "You must turn on Blackberry Blend from the Quick Settings menu on your device"

Hello,
I'm trying to set up Blend for the first time.
I have a Passport - running the latest OS and a laptop running Windows 7 Pro.
When I open BB Blend, it never gets past the message "You must turn on Blackberry Blend from the Quick Settings menu on your device".
It is turned on...
Thanks!

As you can see, your computer is not sufficient to use Blend.
Good luck!

Cannot print from Blackberry Blend for the Classic

It would be nice to print emails from Blackberry Blend. Curently you cannot print anything. Will this feature be implemented in the future?

I don't know what features the future holds, but I agree with you. Blend is great, some added features will be nice.

Blackberry Blend on Ipad iOS 8 bad referrer

I downloaded and intalled blackberry blend, on my ipad 3, a few times and everytime when i connect to my black berry it just shows a screen that dosnt show my data just some titles or it shows a screen that says "bad referrer"
Can someone please help i need to get this working.
I am using the ipad app on iOS 8.
I am using the new Blackberry Classic.

I fought this too, and eventually realized that it's the Xfinity router, not your Apple device. Some setting has been changed by Comcast that is not factory, and your Apple device Hates it.
First, unplug your personal router. Second step is to use a ball point pen to push and HOLD the reset button on the back of the still powered on Xfinity router for a good and slow count of 30 seconds, longer if you don't get bored. This does a full factory reset. Now, leave the Xfinity router alone for 5 minutes, like go and get something to eat. Longer the better. After you come back, plug your personal router back in. My iPad and iPhone hooked right back up to my personal router.
Before this fix, I had to unplug my router over and over every few hours to get it to work at all. After the fix its been working for weeks now. Hope this helps!
