Blackberry Desktop Software experiences an unknown error

I am able to sync everything into my phone except music. Ever since iTunes had an update BB Desktop manager has not been experiencing an "unexpected error" and cannot sync music.
Anyone know how to fix this.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Are you running iTunes version 7.7.1?
"BlackBerry® Desktop Software v6.0.1 and v6.0.2 requires iTunes version 7.7.1 or later or Windows Media Player version 10 or later for music synchronization"
Thanks,

Blackberry desktop software cannot update my error 507 9800touch phone

my blackberry desktop software cannot update and load an os to the phone. i have error 507 which means there is no os on my phone as i read somewhere. but the problem is.... i have tried all the intruction on the solution on error507 but to no avail. the device software alwas says " "There is no BlackBerry® Software available." with Cancel, Update and Retry option. If I choose to Update the software it will say that no software is available... i even tried downloading the os6 for my fone and used the loader but it gets stuck at the last process with the same message "There is no BlackBerry® Software available.
i have read around but no solutions. please help as am desperate

Hello,
Please check carefully these instructions, most importantly the part about deleting VENDOR.XML file(s).
1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
2) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Now, use this process:

freexrythem wrote:
"There is no BlackBerry® Software available."
Most often, that message is the result of one (or more) of the following:
There is no BB OS package installed to the PC, and there is nothing available from the carrier (as represented by the VendorID hardcoded into the device)
There is a BB OS package installed to the PC, but it is from a different (per VendorID) carrier, and the VENDOR.XML file(s) have not been deleted (which causes the installed package to be ignored)
There is more than one BB OS package installed to the PC...which can confuse the Loader tool
Good luck!

Blackberry Desktop Software hangs ("not responding" error)

I have a Bold 9780 and Blackberry Desktop Software 7, and suddenly the desktop application juts hangs and freezes when I try to launch it. I have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling, going to earlier DM versions, registrry cleans, the lot, and nothing seems to work. Any ideas? At present I cannot synch my BB, which is very frustrating.

Hello,
You seem perhaps to already have tried at least some of what is discussed in this thread, but I cannot tell if you've truly tried it all...therefore, I 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.
Otherwise, it really sounds like you have some major conflict or issues with your Windows OS itself. While quite rare, it's not unheard of needing to completely reinstall Windows so as to get things working well. But, before you resort to that, you should do all of the normal Windows stuff -- Windows updates, check all of your apps for updates, run registry cleansers, run full virus scans, run malware detectors, etc. etc. etc. This very much sounds like a PC/Windows problem more than a Desktop Software problem.
Good luck!

Blackberry Desktop Software version 7 Synchronization Error

I get the following error while synchronizing my Outlook calendar
"CRRecurringl:: SetRecurringDates: Start date is invalid".
I did not have any problems synchronizing prior to upgrading Blackberry Desktop to version 7.

I had the same problem. This is what I found out and how to fix it. Tech Support at RIM walked me through it though it took awhile.
From browsing online, it seems this problem occurs when you change from two way sync in the Desktop Software to one way, then change back to two way. To fix it, you need to first make sure you have all of your information current in Outlook. Then, go into the Desktop Software and under Device choose Delete Data. You can then Select Data and choose only Calendar. After that is done, do another sync, and everything should be okay.

Blackberry Desktop Software syncronization errors

I have not been able to find a solution to an error I am getting with a MAPi logon failure, I am using Microsoft Office 365 Pro Plus which has a 2013 version of Outlook (POP email not Mapi). I assume this error started after an automatic upgrade as I have been using this same set up for over 6 months

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Interesting...I actually cannot determine at all why it ever worked for you...the Desktop Software is not compatible with Outlook 2013...refer:
KB12268 Synchronization support for BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows
Unless it's Outlook that got upgraded? You were not clear about exactly what was upgraded...but, if it was Outlook, then that would indeed explain it...the upgrade took you to a version of Outlook that is not supported.
Good luck and let us know!

BlackBerry Desktop Software error when trying to run from my computer desktop

Hi: I have installed the BlackBerry Desltop Software ver 6.0 on my Dell Dimension 4700 PC @3.4 GHz which runs Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 and has 1GB of RAM.
Each time I have tried to start the software from the desktop icon, I receive an error message saying that BlackBerry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and need to close.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and if so, how did you resolve it? Any assistacne would be most appreciated as I wish to synch my Torch with Outlook 2003 for contacts and appointments!!
Thanks

Hello,
I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
Some have reported that there are more registry keys to remove than are discussed in that KB
Others have reported the use of a registry cleansing tool to also be helpful
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchronizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
7) Start the organizer configuration over:
KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
Hopefully that will get things going again.
Good luck and let us know!

Error when trying to configure sync between Outlook 2003 and Blackberry Desktop Software 4.6

I am unable to configure the Blackberry Desktop Software (version 4.6) to sync with my Outlook 2003. I used to have an older version of the desktop software and it worked just fine. I got a new phone and updated the software and am unable to configure the sync. I get the following message when I try to configure it: "Runtime Error: folder is no longer part of the system data source or the folder could not be found."
Please help. I need these to sync.

HI and Welcome to the Forums!
I suggest trying a clean DTM uninstall:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
followed by reinstalling from scratch. You should be able to go to the latest v5.0 with Outlook 2003...it's available here:

Removing Blackberry Desktop Software 5.0.1 from Windows 7 Error Message 1316

When attempting to remove BB Desktop Software 5.0.1 from Windows 7, I received an error towards the end of the uninstall stating "Error 1316, file not found" and it reverts back and reinstalls the product. I no longer have a BB and would like to clean up my hard drive from unnecesary programs. Please help!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Here is a KB that discusses that error:
Article ID: KB04272 "Error 1316 A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\Windows\Installer\BlackBerry Desktop Software.msi" when trying to uninstall/upgrade BlackBerry Desktop Software
Hopefully it contains something useful! There also are multiple existing threads on this site that discuss that exact error...your review of those might prove useful, and a search of this site, using the error message, error code, or symptom, should reveal all applicable existing threads to you.
Good luck and let us know!

Error loading Blackberry Desktop Software

I have XP Home Edition Version 2002 SP3. I tried installing the newest version of BDM ver. 6.2 which I downloaded from RIM. The received the error while loading: "Balckberry Desktop Software has encountered an error and must close..."
I uninstalled and removed all registry entries and RIM folders and and also used a system cleaner (CCleaner). I reinstalled again and the error still occurs. RIM.destophelper.exe does load to system tray. There are no error codes of any kind associated with this failure to load.
Any help trouble shooting this would be appreciated.

Thanks again for the quick reply.
Is the BlackBerry connected the whole time when you're trying to open BlackBerry Desktop Software?
And just to clarify you did perform all these steps when you uninstalled the previous software: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02206
Because that error will appear if some old DTM files are still present on the computer.

GPO Deployement of Blackberry Desktop Software 6.1 fail with the following error: user cancelled installation

Hello everybody,
I get an issue when i try to deploy the latest version of Blackberry Desktop Software using a Group Policy Objetc.
The package tries to install a the computer's startup but i can't find the product installed.
On the event viewer and after a rsop.msc i get the following error: User cancelled installation
I worked threw this link http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/Unable-to-install-Blackberry-Desktop-... and i installed vcredist_x86 and msxml6 on the client computer but the problem is still the same.
Could anyone help me for this issue.
Over simple way to solve my problem would be to let me know where i can download an older version of Blackberry Desktop Software because there is a link on the website but it doesn't work.

Well folks. I've had enough.
The 9780 is a great phone, it's easy to use, practical and dependable. However, the Desktop Manager software has been giving me too many sleepless nights. On two occassions I must add: once at the end of last year when I bought it and only managed to solve it by myself after 4 weeks of trawling through online forums, blogs and other BB help sites and the recent one was last week when I tried to install it on my new Windows 7 notebook.
I know this is not entirely the fault of RIM, Microsoft also has a part to play. But considering the state of technology these days, it shouldn't have to be so difficult. I want a phone and software that makes my life easier and not have to be a slave to it by trying days and nights to solve its problems.
Hence, I have officially decom my phone and gotten an iPhone 4 instead. The switch ain't that difficult for me as I have always been platform neutral. As long it fits my needs, does it job well and doesn't give me too much headache, I'm cool with it.
Ciao folks!
