BlackBerry Media Sync has encountered a problem and needs to close

I have been trying to sync my BB Curve with Media Sync and am continually receiving the same error message, "BlackBerry® Media Sync has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I have tried restarting the computer, insalling and reinstalling, MediaSync, Desktop Manager and iTunes. All these actions seem to be ineffectivei n syncing music to my Curve via Media Sync and I keep receiving the same error message. I am able to manually move music from iTunes onto my Memory Card in the E: Drive. Any assistance in troubleshooting Media Sync would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

  • Blackberry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close

    When I try to open Blackberry Desktop the message I get is that Blackberry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close.  I have a Blackberry Bold 9700 and as a result I cannot sync.  Does this mean I need to uninstall and reinstall?  If I reinstall will I lose the update that I have on my phone that has changed the interface?  Will I have to reinstall that as well?
    Thanks for any help or advice you can give me.

    I suggest this thread:

    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.
    Also, for XP users, please be sure you are on SP3...that is the current minimum level required with the latest Desktop Software.
    Good luck!

  • Windows XP gives message "BlackBerry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close." when trying to start Desktop Manager

    I apologize if this issue has already been handled in others' posts; I just can't locate my specific issue, and I'm a newbie with this.
    I first encountered the Windows crash shown in subject yesterday when trying to sync my Blackberry. Message is displayed after the program churns for awhile, but hasn't even detected a remote device or shown that it is doing any work.
    I vaguely recall agreeing to an update a few days back.  Perhaps Windows has updated recently as well? 
    I have uninstalled and installed most recent Desktop version several times, rebooting in between.  I have tried installing original version as well - Desktop at least starts then, but bombs before syncing anything.  I also have rolled back my Windows system to before last Windows update.
    Here is the error message that I believe is associated with this problem:
    Sunday, December 26, 2010
    .NET Runtime 2.0 Error Reporting

    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    I finally solved my problem with blackberry desktop manager 6.0.1 by going bck to 6.0 version and here is how I did it, since the 6.0 version is not available on blackberry's website or on a disk and I have spent over 30 hours with BB tech support all to no avail in fixing 6.0.1 and enabling it to open.
    1) Removed any Blackberry desktop software from my computer via the  add/remove program in the control panel.  No need to deal with a clean uninstall in terms of registry cleaner, etc.
    2) Installed 6.0 which i was lucky enough to have backed up the intallation files from several months ago when I backed up my entire system to an external drive. 
    3) Opened BB desktop mananager and connected my device and configured my sysn with outlook and all worked out. 
    If anyone needs BB Desktop Manager 6.0 to go back to a version that once worked for you, please let me know and I will email it to you via yousendit.com since it is a 95mb file.

  • BlackBerry Desktop Software has encountered a problem and needs to close. (I am sick of seeing this!)

    Can anyone help me? Does not matter if I use the version on disk or download the one from the site, I get the above message every time. I tried using 5.0 and it worked, but was daft enough to update when asked. Is there anything I can do? I am using XP on my Samsung V25 laptop.
    Regards Paul  

    So here's how I fixed my issue.
    Delete the Rim.Desktop.exception.log located here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Application Data
    Run the application, it will crash with the error message above and create a new Rim.Desktop.exception.log file. Open it in notepad and look through it.
    In my case the exception was this.
    Exception message is: The current build operation (build key Build Key[Rim.Desktop.Shell.MyBlackBerryApplication, null]) failed: Could not load file or assembly 'Rim.Desktop.Services.PolicyManager, Version=6.0.2.44, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies
    I followed the suggestion of renaming the file C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Desktop\Modules\Rim.Desktop.Services.PolicyManger.dll to Rim.Desktop.Services.PolicyManger.dll.old
    I then tried to lauch the application and it crashed, you must do this! renaming it back without this step will not work. Then I went back and renamed the dll file back to it's original name Rim.Desktop.Services.PolicyManger.dll and sure enough the application worked.
    Must be some messed up reference somewhere, it's stupid and RIM should figure this out before releasing updates. Obviously your issue may be different but the exception.log file should point you in the right direction.

  • Lotus Notes 8 + BB DM 5.0.1: BB Desktop Manager has encountered a problem and needs to close.

    I just purchased a Bold 9700 and am trying to sync my Lotus Notes 8 calendar to my BB.  I am using Desktop Manager 5.0.1.  I appear to have set up the syncronization properly because it starts but when it reaches record 1057, I receive a message that reads "BlackBerry Desktop Manager has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."  When I click on "details" I see the following information:  Error Signature.  AppName:  Desktopmgr.exe   AppVer:  5.0.1.37   ModName:  Insections.dll   ModVer:  7.1.1.129  Offset:  001a32ed.  How can I successfully sync my calendar and BB?

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Here is an article that may be pertinent:
    KB10340 "BlackBerry Desktop Manager has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." during the synchronization process
    Otherwise, I would think that record 1057 is a bad record and is causing this problem. You might try figuring out which item that is and deleting it, then trying again.
    You also could try activating advanced logging and seeing it that provides more details to help you:
    KB01451 How to turn on advanced synchronization logging if a wired synchronization fails
    Hopefully something there is helpful!
    Cheers!

  • How can I stop syncing error message: "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close"

    On my Mac I am endlessly receiving this message: "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close" it relates to the sync which between Calendars (iCal and Entourage) .
    The error messages were coming up every 5 SECONDS and were impossible to deal with. They stated there was a 'Blame Module' which wasEntourageCore
      I have been unable to find any idea how to resolve this.
    Please can anyone describe what they have done to sort this?
    I am using MS Office 2008.
    Turning off the sync between the two calendars was not the answer, as the messages continued. So I have temporarily disabled the sync between iCal/Entourage and my iPad.  This has prevented the error message, but obviously means I must enter diary dates manually on iPad which is the whole point of the sync!
      I haven't found a way to sync between iCal and iPad - this would be a possible work-round. But I'd be so grateful to know how to resolve the sync error.

  • OutlookSyncClient has encountered a problem and needs to close.

    I am unable to sync my Touch. When I try to sync, Windows reports "OutlookSyncClient has encountered a problem and needs to close."
    There is no other indication of the cause of the problem.
    I'm running 7.6.2.9, with Outlook 2003 SP3 (11.8206...) on Windows XP with all the latest updates.

    I am getting this error ("OutlookSyncClient has encountered a problem and needs to close"). Six hours of workarounds, uninstalls, clean installs and 2 hours at the Genius Bar to no avail. Everything synchs but the Outlook Calendar 2003. This is a joke. I thought Apple stuff just worked so flawlessly, but I see these 11 month old posts of the same error and it is still not fixed.
    I went to the length of removing all of the related software, reinstalling, removing all of my calendar entries, adding a few simple ones and rebooting 50 times all in between. I still got the error.
    I cannot get new contact items to synch back to Outlook.
    I got a few sample calendar entries to synch one way to the iPhone. New calendar entries on the iPhone did not synch back to Outlook. When I started pasting backed up calendar entries back to Outlook and synching, I got the error again. Even after removing these entries I still get these errors.
    I am at a complete loss. I'm not a 10th grader who can handle not synching their calendar with their phone. I need this synched for work and not having this work easily is a non-starter. This amounts to a nifty toy unless a patch comes out in the next couple days. BlackBerry, here I come.

    My TV Anywhere has suddenly stopoed working and the message "InterVideo WinDVR Application has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience." appears each time I try to open the program.  MSI Radio works fine.  I have uninstalled and re-installed the programe (originally MSIPVS now MSIPVS3). I did try to download the new Beta drivers just to try, but the zip file shows 0 bytes!
    Has anyone come across this, or can anyone suggest what I can try to resolve the issue?

  • Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are

    I get following message:
      Adobe® Flash® Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    How can I solve this?

    People,
    Listen. This service is, has been and seemingly will be: FREE. So while emotions are running on the hot side of the guage, let's remember; it is FREE. Adobe owes no one anything. Now who's to blame, really? We, the people are to blame. Why? Because everyone has been ok with the fact that one company essentially designed and released a technology for streaming from the net. One company. And almost all of us are using this one company's technology to stream; for FREE.
    But now we are not ok with it when, after we are prompted to update, we have the issue of it not working? We all never saw the ridiculously high potential for this one company to screw things up, intentionally or otherwise? What the ramifications, that we are now experiencing, might be? Nah, we just took it for granted that we would continue to be served. Well the serve came, everyone. Mistake or otherwise.
    It's like this country [US], up until four-years ago. Everyone was either running around with snow shovels and hefty garbage bags to gather all the money they were making or sailing the seas of expectation and an, 'I am out there to get mine' attitude, and then the sh*t hits the fan and now people are complaining? About the very system until four years ago was spoon feeding them poolside with mai-tai's? While it was crushing everyone else in the known world?
    No doubt it seems incredulous that a multi-billion dollar company has an IT department that would include in an update, for their own software, that would be inconducive to working. No doubt. But keep in mind: we are all either using browsers by Apple or MS. Anything happens to these browsers, including a virus or anything else that threatens our use of them and...?
    So climb off the haughty, 'I deserve' crap and walk on the solid ground of trying to resolve this issue here at Adobe and around the net. If we were to band together, as the 99%, we could solve this, no problem. But then that holds true with resolving this fictitious economic downturn nonsense, that we solidly take for truth at face value, because our mainstream media says so. But no other species on this rock flying through space would know what the f*ck we were talking about.

    2. I then check C:\Program Files\ and made sure all folders were deleted (QuickTime, etc.)
    3. I then ran a Registry Cleaner program to make sure all entries from Apple products were removed.
    4. I then rebooted my PC
    5. I then downloaded iTunes8.0.2 from here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
    6. After it installed it said it could use my iTunes library file because it was created with a newer version. So I re-created my library by following these steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    It took some time but iTunes is now back up and running. And I have all my playlists, etc. I haven't tried to sync anything yet. I'm just thrilled to have my iTunes back!

  • Itunes will not open- "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close"

    My iTunes will not open anymore, giving me the error message: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes several times, and with different versions. Nothing I do seems to work. I have even copied the program files from a friend whose iTunes does work, hoping that would fix it, but to no avail. Has anyone discovered a way to fix this problem. I have a friend who has the same problem, but hasn't been able to fix it either.

    What happens when you go into control panel, click on the Quick Tunes config icon, and then select the audio tab? If you get an error, Quick Time is corrupted. Also double check your sound card drivers. Can you play any sound at all? Does Windows Media Player function? What is you anti virus software?
