Hi
This what I did to completely wipe my BB. I wrote this before starting and printed it off.
If your device is functioning, perform a backup now if you haven't already done so saving the file to a place and in a name that you can easily locate on computer.
I then uninstalled DTM and then deleted all other references to BB/Rim in Windows Explorer thus removing the OS for the BB from the computer in order to ensure that the version I would reinstall would be a brand new downloaded version.
Get the latest Desk Top Software (DTS)
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?CPID=OTC-DSKTPSW&cp=OTC-DSKTPSW
and install it on the computer.
Get the correct latest version of the OS
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
and save it to computer.
If the PC does not recognize the BB, You need to connect the via the USB cable. Then pull the battery from the BB.
With the battery pulled, connect the BlackBerry to the USB connector and as SOON as you see USB-PIN:UNKNOWN hit Next. You have to be quick. From there you can put the battery back in (make sure you install the battery or else when the OS update is completing and the device disconnects from the computer to reboot, it will lose the power provided by the USB connection and you will get an error and have to do it all over again!).
If you don't get it right the first time, try again (unplug from USB, pull battery, connect and hit Next while USB-PIN:Unknown is showing). You have to be fast and the timing is key, so it may take you three or four attempts.
To erase all the data on your BlackBerry device, complete the following steps.
1) Download JL_Cmder from http://www.4shared.com/get/oqP9V-2Q/JL_Cmder_v19.html
2) Install JL_Cmder to computer.
3) Double check you have already backed-up the BB. If you DO NOT, you will lose ALL data.
4) Make sure the DTS is closed and plug in the BB to computer via USB
5) Go to the JL_Cmder on your computer and double click it to start. Now,this may take a few tries to connect, so keep trying until it does.
6) On the first screen, Press any key to continue.
7) Now, if your device uses a password, enter it now. If not, press "N"
8) Press 4 to initiate the WIPE
9) Press "Y" to continue
10) Now type "blackberry" to continue
11) On the BB you will see a white screen with a'507' Error. Don't worry, this is what you want! You are now ready to install the OS.
Launch the new Desk Top Software on the computer
1). On the home screen of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, click Device > Update my device.
2). Click View Other Versions. Click the version of the new OS you previously downloaded.
3). Click Install. The DTM will install the OS and then provide you with a list of applications to install. If you have had difficulties with an app, do not install it.
Do not disconnect the device until the whole process is completed and the device has rebooted.
After 10 minutes reboot again by removing the battery whilst powered-on and leave it out for a couple of minutes.
Leave it again for 10 minutes. You should now have a fully functioning BB!

  • My iPhone would just randomly give me a blue screen and then restart--did that a bunch of times between Tuesday and last night. As of last night, it WILL NOT come back on. iTunes says it's in recovery mode....what does all of this mean???

    Tuesday night I was texting a friend and when I went to open her message, my screen went blue and restarted. I just wrote it off as weird and went on about my business. Later that night, I tried to turn on my phone and it would not turn on. I plugged it up, held down the power button, and pressed the home button all numerous times. I looked online and it said to do a "hard reset" by holding down the power and home button at the same time--my phone then came on. Throughout Wednesday, it would give me a blue screen and restart--nothing major just really annoying. I took it to the local Verizon store where I bought the phone from and he said that it was some type of hardware defect and I was still under my year warranty so I could get a new one for free--the free phone won't be here until tomorrow, Saturday. I took it home and it didn't give me any trouble for a couple of hours. The next day it was cooperating and then I left town for a little while and it acted up (blue screen and then restarting) a few times. When I got home, it acted up again and so I restarted the phone and it was working fine. A few minutes later, I tried to check my messages and the phone was off again. No matter what I do, my phone will not come back to life. It had at least 45% battery last time I looked at it. I decided to plug the phone up to my computer and see what it did--my computer recognizes that there is a phone hooked to it and it says that it's in "recovery mode". It also said that if I'm having issues with my phone, that I need to reset the phone via iTunes. I guess the questions that arise are
    1. Why is my phone doing this?
    2. If I reset my phone, will it go back to working again? I ask that because I don't want Verizon to charge me $300 when they send me the replacement phone and I won't need it (assuming that the phone decides to work once it's been reset).
    3. What type of hardware defect is this that is causing this issue, not only with my iPhone 5S but others as well?
    4. Shouldn't people be notifying Apple and letting them know that they need to fix this issue?
    5. Should I report this issue to Apple even though I didn't buy the phone directly from them, but through Verizon?
    Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated! This whole situation has me stressed out and seriously confused.

  • Itunes will not come up on my computer

    itunes will not come up on my screen. It shows up in windows task manager. When I click on the desktop icon, it flashes off then back on again, but itunes doesn't come up. Quick-time comes up when I click on the icon. itunes shows 44,540 on the Mem Usage column on the Process tab of Windows task Manager. I don't know what to do next. When I click on a song from my "My Music" folder under itunes library, it won't play. I'm out of ideas

    If itunes.exe stays in task manager there are a few things to try. Easiest one is to start itunes and hold down the shift key until iTunes starts. Choose "Create new library" when prompted.
    If itunes.exe just flashes briefly in task manager, I believe in the past that indicates malware on your PC.

    Hey erinoneill24,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sounds like you can't update your device. You don't mention an error that it gives you. Take a look at both of these articles to troubleshoot.
    iPod displays "Use iTunes to restore" message

    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
    Have a nice day,

  • I can't get home sharing to turn on on my computers. I have a PC running windows XP that has a large library on it that I want to access from a newer windows 7 PC. I have turned home sharing on in both, same apple ID. I just will not come up. Any ideas?

  • ICal print menu will not come up

    I have been trying to print my iCal calendar from my PowerBook G4, but the print menu will not come up. I have printed it from here before, so where did the print menu go? Help!

    We have exactly the same problem here:
    OS 10.4.3, iCal 2.0.3, HP Photosmart 2610
    - Printing on any app works fine, ecept iCal
    - in iCal choosing the command "print..." just does nothing.
    I tried:
    - creating a new user - > printing in iCal works fine!
    so I tried:
    - trashing ...
    ... all ical-plists in "user/Library/Preferences/"
    ... the folder "user/Library/Application Support/iCal"
    ... moving all user-pref files out of the preferences folder
    ... disabling all the fonts in "users/Library/Fonts/" and "hd/Library/Fonts"
    no way the get it back to print!
    I'm sure it has nothing to do with the HP printer, cause on a different account it works.
    Any ideas what else I could disable?
    Thanks for ideas

  • HT1414 my iphone 4 running on IOS 5 will not come out of recovery mode and gives the error code -1. Can any one help me please because i've been without a phone for 2 weeks and still not getting anywhere.

    Hi there could someone out there please help i've got a Iphone 4 running on IOS 5 and it will not come out of recovery mode> It comes up with the error code -1 which i've looked everywhere on the web but no one seams to have the same issue.
    This is a reconditioned replacement phone from the apple genius guys which i paid £130 for and only got 3 months warranty with and as soon as the warranty run out it crashed on me and never been able to get it back out of recovery mode. I've been back to the apple genius guys and they have told me there's nothing they can do other than charge me £130 to take the phone off me and give me another reconditioned phone with a 3 month warranty. Which as you can properly tell i dont want to.
    PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME thanks for your time

    This is a bad hardware error, Baseband Error. Some have reported getting through this error by Restoring iPhone with the SIM Card removed. Try that. Try restoring with different computer. Search Web some more for other thoughts.

  • The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything works perfectly. I even used the advice given on the tech support page, and it still will not come on. HELP ME PLEASE.

    The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything else is working fine I even took the tech support advice by plugging it in and resetting it, but that didn't fix the issue either. I need help.

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • PIctures and music will not come off my iPhone.

    I am trying to clean up my iPhone. I want to remove some old pictures but they will not come off. I have tried removing them from iTunes. I unclicked sync photos and did a sync but they will not remove. They are pictures I uploaded from my computer months ago. There is nothing selected on iTunes so there shouldn't be any pictures.
    I am also trying to remove all my songs so I can create and add a new playlist. Two songs will not come off. I have toggled off "show all music" and two songs will not delete manually or when hooked up to iTunes.

    Also, it is sync songs I didn't select.

  • HP LaserJet P3005x will not come out of sleep mode

    Printer will not come out of sleep mode (after being in sleep mode for an extended period of time (over 24 hrs)).  When this happens, I can not ping the printer and pressing any of the buttons on the printer will not bring it out of sleep mode.  I'm testing now to see if I can recreate this with the printer attached to my PC via USB.

    Hi arosecarter,
    I understand your monitor is not coming out of sleep mode. Take a look at the following support document, Resolving Problems with Sleep and Hibernate Modes (Windows 7). Step 3 might be of particular interest to you, as you mentioned your keyboard and mouse are not really working for you either. Perhaps it is another connected device that is causing the issue? Anyway, hopefully this document will be of help to you. Best of luck. Have a wonderful day.

  • HT1338 MacBook Pro 13.3: Desktop screen will not come up when turned on.  Screen is blank except for an icon of a folder with a question mark on it, in the middle of an otherwise blank screen, laptop making a clicking noise.

    My MacBook Pro 13.3 MAC OS  X v10.7 laptop will not come up.  Blank screen comes up, no color/desktop, etc., only an icon of a folder in the middle of the screen with a question mark on the folder.  Laptop making a clicking noise. Suggestions? Thanks!

    It's under warranty. Take it in to have Apple fix it.
    The "flashing ?" means the machine can't find the start up disk. The clicking noise is a give away that the drive is damaged.
