Cannot connect with Desktop Software

Hi, 
Now, I am trying really hard to have faith in my Blackberry products. I must tell you, it's not easy. Last month, I ran into a lot of problems when backing up and updating my Torch (link: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Torch/Password-manager-data-lost-during-update/m-p..., and this time, I have problems hooking 2 tablets to my Desktop software.
Here is now my problem:
The Desktop Softwre takes at least 4 minutes to connect to my tablet. Once it connects, I can't have access to the left side menu, where it says: "Files" and also the "Video" menu. When I click there, it says: “A problem occurred while attempting to connect to your blackberry device” Therefore, I cannot transfer any files and videos into my Playbooks.
Also, the computer doesn't recognize it as an additional drive/memory. So, I cannot drag and drop files/videos that way neither. I know I was able to do this the first day I got my playbooks as I did transfer a couple of videos that way.
These 2 playbooks are barely new - and both cannot be hooked with the BB Sofware, therefore, I think my problem may be with the software, not with the units. Please help me.
Thanks so much !! 
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Turns out to be my WiFi. I don't know why, but I have to turn off WiFi on both of the tablets to be able to have it linked with my PC.
OK, I can live with that.
Thanks guys for your replies.

  • Playbook will not connect with Desktop Software

    Playbook won't connect with desktop software any longer. Seems to have started after latest update to 2.0. Still working fine with my Torch 9810, but not with the Playbook. I even tried reinstalling the Desktop software, but no go. Tried to "forget" Playbook, but now I can't even add it as a device any longer!

    possible you need to uninstall Device Manager, not Desktop Software.
    Disconnect the PB from the computer.
    Uninstall the Device Manager.
    Reboot your computer (for good measure)
    Connect the PB using the USB cable.
    Now you should see a PlayBook CD-ROM.
    In that CD-ROM you will find version 7 of the Device Manager, install it.
    Once installed disconnect the PB from the computer.
    Wait for about 15 seconds then plug it back in.
    Windows should detect new device and start Device Manager. It may take up to two minutes for windows to detect and properly install.
    Then device manager will map 'z' drive to the PB.

  • "The BlackBerry Desktop Software cannot connect with this device." after repair

    I download the Desktop Software for BlackBerry onto my Mac Book Pro for the first time. 
    After installing I connected my PlayBook. I get the message "The BlackBerry® Desktop Software cannot connect with this device."
    The program suggested I repair the device software, so I did. After that I set it up and ran the updates.
    When I plug it back in I get the exact same message.
    What should I do next?

    I also cannot connect to my two playbooks using desktop manager on mac.
    One of the two playbooks is now shipped back to rim for repair (see here http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/5MP-Playbook-Camera-Blackscreen-Errors-Ha... The issue of desktop manager not being able to connect to the playbook started with this playbook when the repair I was prompted to to stopped 1/4 way into it. Multiple retries did not make any difference. 
    Since then, I have tried connecting my other (functioning) playbook to the same mac but when I plug in usb cable I get the same "cannot connect" errmsg and prompted to "repair". I am definitely NOT going to "repair" this one. So I uninstalled the desktop manager and reinstalled it to see if it makes a difference. Unfortunately it did not and I get the same "cannot connect" errmsg.
    If anyone has any suggestion how this issue can be resolved that would be great. I think something is stuck on the mac and is not getting wiped out when desktop manager is uninstalled. Thanks.

  • I need a request code for offline activation. Because i cannot connect with adobe server for online activation. But I receive "The request code is invalid." by generate answer code.

    Dear Anubha,
    I hope these windows illustrate what I am facing.
    The above window shows the prompt that the software requires activation.
    The version is 8.1.0.
    This next window is the point where I select activation by phone.
    This final window shows that the "response code" is not returned.  I get an
    "Activation Number" instead.

  • TS1394 how can i get upgrade the ios x v 10.5.8? I purchased an iphone 5 but cannot connect with my macbook 5. I cannot update itune 11 as my ios is not up to date

    how can i get upgrade the ios x v 10.5.8? I purchased an iphone 5 but cannot connect with my macbook 5. I cannot update itune 11 as my ios is not up to date

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

    Hi,
    About two days ago my shuffle started to send me an error message that it cannot connect with iTunes because it's not formated properly.
    So I've already updated the softwer, I tried to use it with every single USB port on my computer and searched for solutions on the net but couldn't find any useful information...
    I literally see the following message: The iPod "194" cannot be used with iTunes because it is not formatted properly.
    Any ideas?....

    If you cannot access the iPad because of the passcode, you have no choice but to restore it using the same steps that you would use if you forgot the passcode.

  • PSE 12 - Cannot connect with Adobe

    I cannot connect with Adobe through PSE12.  The first time the message told me Help did not install and to uninstall and reinstall, which I did today.  I still cannot connect; yet, I was able to register the serial numbers for both elements and premiere. 
    In trying resolve the problem, I got another message that indicates there is no internet connection.  I have analyzed the install log and nothing there indicates an error in installation.
    I still have PSE 10 on my computer and can connect direct when in 10. 

    No. I tried the "activation-network-i ssues" before 2 times.
    0. Patch installed
    1. I have/had internet connection
    2. I can call https pages
    3. drivers/etc/Hosts was/are clean.

  • I cannot create a new business catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014. The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. How can I fix this problem?

    I cannot create a new Business Catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014 (Mac). The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. In addition, I am also unable to load remotely a previously created Business Catalyst site as it says there is something wrong with my username or password. However when I put my password in and press test connection, it says it has connected successfully. What is going wrong and how can I fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi Ozy08,
    Can you try the solutions mentioned in Re: Can't Login to Business Catalyst within Dreamweaver CS6?
    If you still have problems, and you have a purchased version of DW CC, send me your Adobe ID, location, and contact details over a private message. Click my picture and use the message option.
