Blackberry desktop manager download: "not valid win32 application" error? won't install

I have purchased a used blackberry 8330 curve. works great and i'd like to download the desktop manager as I believe I could sync a calendar of some sort w/ this program? I tried to download from blackberry website version 4.7 with and without media manager...same error comes up after 1/2 hr of downloading : ""C:\ProgramFiles\470_b050_english.exe is not valid Win32 application"". am I downloading the wrong program? I am pretty new at this smartphone stuff, so 'smartphone for dummies' instructions would be helpful. thanks a bunch! oh--I have windows xp edition on my laptop.

Go to Solution.

If you're running Windows try going to Start | Run and type in (w/o quotes) "%temp%".
That should open the temp directory where the software may be trying to install to. If the folder isn't empty delete it's contents and try again.

That generally indicates that the installer is getting damaged during the download.

Hi and welcome to the community...and apoligies for the delayed reply.
Sorry, but the KB linked above is very explicit in the remedies it recommends...from what you've posted here, it sounds as if you have not read and attempted what is in that KB? Please confirm.

Is there an older version of the application that works?
Concerning that...well, the current version works, but not 100% (like most things with computers, perfection can never be attained). So, there are older versions...but no one cay say if, in your specific circumstance, those will work either. In any event, I would suggest this thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-...
It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
Good luck!

Blackberry Desktop Manager does not show Media Manager

First, let me say I am a NEW Blackberry user, my hubby and I both got new Blackberry Curves 8310 recently.
   When I installed the disc that came with the phone, the Blackberry Desktop Manager does not have the "Media Manager" as one of the choices, as was shown on all of the booklets and tutorials. I even re-installed the program, thinking maybe it didn't download completely the first time, but it still comes up showing only these 4:
         Synchronize, Backup & Restore, Application Loader, and Switch Device Wizard.......
All of the directions I've received show that I can easily add pictures and music simply by clicking on Media Manager, but it just isn't there.
Here is info about the installation disk that we received with our phones, supposedly the correct and latest versions . . ..
Blackberry Desktop Manager
version 4.3.0.17 (Nov.12 2007)
Device Communications      Blackberry Device mgr....4.3.0.7
                                         BBDevMgr   ................4.0.0.1
                                         RIM USB Driver.............4.0.0.2
                                         RIM USB Serial Driver.......2.1.0.4
Application Loader          Application Loader ..........4.3.0.13
                                     RIMProgram .....................1.0.0.35
Seriously, none of these really means a whole lot to me, I just want to click on something and have it work . . . I did try to "upgrade" to a newer version, and I got the message that the version I had was the newer one, so now what?
I have memory cards inserted in the phone(s).
I will appreciate any help with this, I'm really frustrated. I figured out how to move files manually, but I don't understand why it isn't showing up as illustrated in the instruction manuals and online tutorials.

*.exe is not a valid win32 application error message

When I download updates I cannot install them. I get the error message that they are not valid Win32 applications, which I know is not correct. This is apparently a common problem with Windows 7, and nobody has come up with a solution in the
forums.
Any ideas?

OK. I think I figured it out. Neither the forums nor MS were of any help whatsoever. In my case, my recollection was that the problem started at about the same time I had an infection, and installed antivirus SW (Ad Aware), which fixed
the problem. Today, I unistalled Ad Aware, and voila! the *.exe files download and run as they had before the problem arose.

this seems to be an issue of corrupted jar files or a java web start. Have a look at this troubleshooting guide to help you track down the culprit -
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/02/13/unable-to-open-iresrid-xipipi-71-updated-for-pi-71-support

I download Firefox and can't install it. Get a "Not valid Win32 application." I get this with any program I want to install. I suspect a virus.

No program that has not been installed will linstall. No matter which I try, I always get "Not a valid Win32 application." I also clicked the "Automatic troubleshooting information," below, and it never stopped downloading so I was not able to go any further. It seems Windows must be fixed, somehow, but I have no idea about that. I tried to install both AVG and Avast anti-virus but it seems to be too late. Whatever I have prevents either of them from installing, too.
Nothing ever popped up, including a window with Allow. As the alternative, I don't see a Help>Troubleshooting Information, either.

Itunes won't run - not valid win32 application??? please help

Please can anyone help. I have a new ipod nano which requires you to download itunes 7.02 from the web rather than with a setup CD.
When I try to run it I get the error message that it is not a valid win32 application. Not very techy so can't even begin to work out what to do...please help

I had exactly the same problem, however I've now managed to install itunes. After following all the tips and hints about removing quicktime and earlier version of itunes
I went onto the download page for itunes 7.2 and chose to save the setup to my desktop. after a short time the download said it was completed and when i tried to open it it came up with th error " not a valid win32 application". I clicked "ok" on the warning message and immediately chose to download itunes again, I again chose to save it to my desktop but changed the name of the download to "itunes setup1". Again after a short time the download completed and again gave the error " not a valid win32 application" when i tried to intall it. I followed the above step several times again but each time changed the save setup name, so it went itunes setup2, itunes setup3, and eventually on the fourth attempt the download took around 30 mins for the full 35.1mb download and this time the icon for the download on my desktop instead of being an empty white box was infact a box with a music note and cd, and I'm glad to say after messing about for 4 hours downloaded and my new ipod shuffle is now complete with 250 songs on. I hope this helps.

Itunes.exe not valid win32 application

i cannot install the new itunes update. because after i download the update my computer says that this is not a valid win32 application. how do i get rid of this and install the new update. i have tried all of the suggestions that are on the support site and still cannot get it to work.

This is a tricky error message...sigh...Let's try something first, besides the typical troubleshooting stuff.
Try setting up another User account thru XP with Full Admin Priveleges and see if iTunes and Quicktime will download and install on this account. Try saving the install to your hard drive and runnig it from there instead of running it over the 'Net.
Try completely removing Quicktime and iTunes on your current account. You may want to try Windows Installer Clean Up Utility to remove any remnants. Find out about that here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
I would also download a free program called CCleaner. http://www.download.com/CCleaner/3000-2144_4-10315544.html
You can read about what it does from this page as well. It can help clear up some invalid Registry issues.

ITunesSetup[1].exe not valid Win32 application

i bought a fifth gen. on Feb 17, i try to download iTunes 7.0.2, after i click on either RUN or SAVE, the next box says "The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to RUN/SAVE this software?" I keep going and then a warning box comes up that says "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\658ZMLA5\iTunesSetup[1].exe is not a valid Win32 application."
Then my only option is to click OK, Apple thanks me for downloading iTunes7, and i'm back where I started.
i downloaded iTunes6 from a friends disk but everytime i open it, another warning box says that my ipod requires iTunes7 or newer, so...
...please help me.

You should follow the procedure for emptying your Windows Temp folder in this article(it's near the bottom of the page):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
After restarting your PC, Download iTunes again, do NOT press Run when downloading, you need to Save it and the run it from your PC after it has downloaded.
If that doesn't work there is other advice on the same link.

Round and round with Itunes Not Valid Win32 Application

Defragged, cleaned disc, uninstalled, reinstalled, scanned with Malwarebytes and MSE, Temporary disabled Windows firewall, and Microsoft Security Essentials, attempted manual install, download to desktop and attempt install, delete and start all over again. Apple shows as having invalid signature during install. Also get same stuff with Ipod Touch upgrade to 4.0.

I have the same error message I cannot get the link of yours to open. everytime I click update itunes I get an error last time I had to uninstall everything cause itunes would not install and the old version wouldn't run after trying to install the new version. Same error again win32. I do not want to have to throw all my CD's on the laptop again. I want to correct this error. But i will never update itunes again after this if I can correct the error. Never again. Please help how do i correct the win32 application error.

Blackberry Desktop Manager does not detect my phone

My computer detects my phone when I attach it, but Desktop Manager does not, so I can't manage my phone.

Hello Flowergirl0044,
Have a look at the following article on how to force the detection of the BlackBerry® smartphone using Application Loader to reload the OS http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10144
If the issue still persists after the reload, further investigation might be required. To help further diagnose the cause, contact your wireless service provider or BlackBerry® Technical Support Services for further review and support.
Thank you.

Not a valid Win32 application error when starting javahost

Hi,
I am getting the error below. I have searched this forum and the web and found some mentions of it here and there, but no solutions (by the way I am not using MS IIS).
OBI EE is installed on Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition with Service Pack 2. Everything else (BI Server, presentation services and OC4J instance) is working fine.
Any help on how to solve this would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Luis

Just found the solution for it. I had to "install" a 32 bit JRE and use it to run the java host.
In fact I didn't install the JRE, I just copied its full folder structure from a 32 bit machine to the 64 bit machine and pointed JavaHome in the instanceconfig.xml to there.
All is working well and everybody is happy now, however I am still confused... as I said, the OC4J is running fine with a 64 bit JRE, why the java host needs a 32 bit one? Do you think something went wrong in the installation or that is how things are?

Sqlplus.exe is not a valid win32 application error

Hi All,
I have installed oracle 10gr2 on windows xp.
if i type sqlplus in command prompt i get this error
"C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\BIN\sqlplus.exe is not a valid win32 application".
i went to the path where sqlplus is present i observed that sqlplus.exe file was 0KB.
how can i resolve this problem. i want to upgrade oracle 9i to 10g so i need sqlplus of 10g to work properly.
please anyone help me out to solve this problem.
Regards,
Veeresh S

You'd have to find out how and why that file became 0KB in size.
If one file is 0KB in size, what assurance do you have that other files aren't
also corrupted ?
It could have been a virus-scanner wrongly attempting to quarantine the file,
it could have been a backup-restore session that copied the file back as 0KB,
it could have been some command that you executed in attempting the upgrade.
