Desktop Manager connection help needed

I have a new macbook running Snow Leopard and a Blackberry 9700 Bold running the RIM 5.0 software. 
When I first got this Mac, I downloaded and installed desktop manager, and had no problems syncing my address book and calendar with the mac address book and calendar. 
A few days ago I was attempting to clear the cache on Google Maps on my Bold, and it triggered JVM 102. I was unable to reload the apps from the mac, so I used my old PC and did a successful application loader. (formally worked in bb support doing this all day long, so i'm fairly certain this didnt cause the issue).
After this point, I can still sync with the PC with no problems, but the Mac will not connect to the device. 
What happens is:
- Desktop manager begins "connecting to device"
- device asks if i want to turn on mass storage (selecting yes or no makes no difference)
- mac gains access to blackberry media card for a moment 
- device gets solid red light, and reboots
- desktop manager says "waiting for device to restart"
- when device finishes booting, desktop manager says it was unable to connect
- mac gives errors about not ejecting properly
- bold reboots again
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the desktop manager
I tried using pocketmac but i refuse to pay them 4.99 for the "free download" accellerator
I tried missing sync but the trial/beta is invalid and they want me to buy the full program
I went into library/preferences and deleted all blackberry/rim related files, as well as searched entire mac for any blackberry/rim/research in motion files and deleted them, restarted the mac, and reinstalled DM, still having same issue
Connected back to PC again, still able to sync with no problems
Please help or let me know if there is any other information needed to try and help!!

Hi hnigrone and welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums,
When you reloaded the handheld software, did you perform a clean application load on the BlackBerry smartphone?  You can find the steps for a clean application load outlined in the following BlackBerry Knowledge Base article:

  • Desktop Manager Connection Help

    Hello
    When i open desktop manager on my man it tells me to connect the blackberry using the usb cable
    When i do, the blackberry asks me if i would like to use mass storage mode or not.
    If i select yes, a drive will show up on the desktop. If i chose no, nothing will happen.
    However, Blackberry desktop manager still does not change screens or show any signs of connection (even in mass storage mode).
    Does anyone know of a possible way to fix this or if i am doing anything wrong?
    Thanks,

    I've just purchased a BlackBerry Tour and am having the same connection problem.  Please help!!!!!

  • Need some Desktop Software Connection help.....PLEASE

    Here's the deal. I've had my berry for a while, no problem. I used to be able to connect to my computer and use the desktop manager to swap photos, ring tones, music, etc between my comp and berry. I had some computer issues which involved me changing the power supply and video card as well as adding some ram.
    Everything works fine, printer, mp3 player etc.
    When I plug in my berry it doesn't do anything. It recognizes the memory card I have. But when I open up the media manager, it tells me there is no device installed, and all it sees is my media card.
    Now everything works perfect on my wife's laptop (she has a berry too), but it doesn't work on mine. We both run old school 4.2 desktop software as well as the new 4.7+os.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled 4.2 twice, and it doesn't recognize my phone. I even go to connection settings and all it shows is COM ports. I found a USB option, but then it searches for the device and finds nothing.
    So I decided to upgrade to desktop software 4.7. Downloaded it, installed it, and the same **bleep** thing happens. Doesn't recognize anything. Says I'm not connected. I'm starting to get really pissed off at this crap. I've never had any trouble before. I put 30 songs on here, and tons of pictures on my memory card...not a skipped beat ever.
    I can easily go to my wife's laptop, plug in, and install/delete what I need and I'm done. The problem is none of my music/pics are on her laptop. SO I 'm having to bring them via Flash Drive to her laptop, and then install the items..but no luck on my comp.
    I went to the control panel and did "add hardware" it showed a blackberry device was connected but it gave me the following error (using both versions of the desktop software)
    "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)"
    Please help before I get really frustrated and toss my berry.

  • Desktop Manager Says Phone Needs Update

    I have Desktop Manager 5.0.1 installed on a Windows 7 x64 system.  The phone is plugged in and it says it needs a core update run on the phone.  I am running 5.0.0.328 on Verizon.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    lol, love that **bleep**. Is that like an alien? j/k
    Verizon could be pusing an update, I doubt it, yet.
    If you have upgraded the BBMessenger to v5, it likely sees the BBM 4.7 as being the update or something, which has been a glitch for some users. If that is the case, you could simply hit cancel and ignore it.
    Otherwise, run the update and see what you get?

  • Desktop Manager 'Connecting' infinitely...

    Greetings everyone,
    I have been a BB user for sometime through my workplace and so when it came time to own a personal device I naturally gravitated towards Blackberry. I now own a 9870 and can say that it is a slick device, and had no trouble with any of the setup of the device itself. 
    My woes began when I installed the Desktop Manager on my home PC. I got the latest version of the desktop manager v6.0.2 B45 and installed it. I then proceeded to connect my device (selecting Charge only, which the information says it the correct setting for Desktop manager though I have also tried the others Media Sync and USB Mode), which BB Device Manager detected correctly, after the drivers installed themselves, and could see the PIN number and a 'Connected' time counting up.
    Desktop manager launches, without error, and shows the green USB icon beside the name of the device. In the lower right hand corner of the software, it says 'Connecting' with a green activity wheel spinning, albeit slowly. It remains in that state indefinitely. (At the end of my ordeal I left it over night and awoke 5 hours later to find in in the same state with device manager showing it having been connected the whole time)
    I have tried reinstalling the desktop software, rebooting, doing battery pulls, turning off power management for the USB port (A direct port on the PC, not a hub), trying other ports on the PC, running compatibility mode for the Desktop Software, forcing it to 'Run As Administrator'. I have probably forgotten some of the things I've tried as I spent many hours grinding this.
    I KNOW the device is functional as is the cable as I have been able to connect it to my work laptop and it works perfectly as does my work Blackberry. I hoping that I have missed some minor detail or neglected some obvious setting like 'turn good mode ON' as I simply cannot think what else the problem could be.
    I'm throwing myself at your mercy as I just don't know what else to try to resolve this issue. Any help would be appreciated!
    For reference sake, my PC specs are:
    Windows 7 64-bit, Home
    4 GB DDR3
    Intel I7 860
    (Plenty of free HD space)
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm not sure if I did something wrong in posting my topic and thus it was neglected or if there is simply no one who has encountered this problem. I know their must be some people who use Bluetooth to sync their devices, and help on that would have been great.
    For posterity sake, I bought an ASUS BT211 adapter and installed it using the chipset manufacturer's drivers, (Atheros) so that Windows could use it's native BT stack and be detected by the Device Manager.  I was able to pair it using this method and the desktop manager IMMEDIATELY detected the connection and allowed me to sync and backup the device.
    On a whim, I connected the USB cable I had had so much difficulty with and noted with some degree of elation that it detected and connected nearly instantaneously. I disconnected BT and can now connect and sync with USB without any trouble whatsoever.
    I don't know what the precise problem was, but there was clearly something  in the initialization process that was not working though USB what was not encountered through BT, and now that it is past that point, no longer hangs there.
    Hopefully this information will be useful to some tortured soul who comes across it, or perhaps some RIM QA personnel, as I was unable to benefit from any other experiences.
    Good Luck!

  • Vista OP--Curve 8330---no sync with desktop manager---please help

    I have tried the following versions of desktop manager, 4.3 from disk and download, 4.5, and 4.7.  Each new version was tried after clean reinstall.  Vista OP.  I click the sync configure.  I get the select a devise application window.  I click on any one of the choices, and get the following choices:
    <None>
    ASCII importer/exporter
    yahoo
    THERE IS NO OPTION FOR VISTA
    I have read many suggestions on this message community which basically say try a different version.  THAT DOESN'T WORK. Is there anything else anyone has tried that works with Windows Vista?

    Desktop Manager does not recognize any bluetooth drivers (stacks) other than the basic Windows Bluetooth Stack.  If you have another bluetooth stack in use, you'll need to remove it and let Windows install the basic bluetooth stack.  The downside of this is that you loose some of the advanced features that your current bluetooth stack gives...extra speed, etc.  However, that's the only way to make bluetooth work with Desktop manager.

  • Time Capsule Connection Help Needed (Flashing Amber)

    Guys,
    I've been trying to troubleshoot my Time Capsule connection for a week now and I have had zero luck. 
    I have a Imac with OSX 10.6.8  that uses AirPort v 5.6.1.  I have a Cat-5 (ethernet cable) plugged from my Time Capsule port (looks like this <-->) into an available port in my cable mode/router.  My Imac is also plugged into this router.  The two cat-5 (ethernet) cables are side by side.
    So....
    Every time I plug in the Time Capsule I get the following prompt via AirPort.
    AirPort Utility found a Time Capsule 802.11n (4th Generation) that is
    reporting problems.
    Time Capsule's Name :  My Capsule
              IP Address: 10.0.1.1
              Versino: 7.6.1
              AirPort ID: 12:88:93:CC:FF:72
    If this is not the AirPort wireless devise you want to setup you can select another from the list on the left. If you don't see it make sure.... Blah blah blah....
    To make a long story tollerable I do see my Time Capsule on the left at the top. Its the only one and its selected by default.  So I do the next logical thing right?  I click "Continue" and AirPort reads the Time Capsule's configuration.... and then...... I get the error
    An error occurred while reading the configuration.
    Make sure your Apple Wi-Fi base station is plugged
    in and in range of your computer or connected via
    Ethernet and try again. (-6753)
    Can anyone help me understand why I can grab the Time Capsule's IP Address but AirPort can not read the hardware's (Time Capsule) config?
    I'm at a loss.
    Could my ethernet cable be the issue?

    Hackintosh,
    Thanks man... Yes, I plugged it into the circle symbol with no joy.  I also went to Wal Mart and baught a new seven foot cat-5 for $10.  Again I still have the flashing amber light.
    After plugging in the ethernet cable into the circle icon port AirPort returns the following prompt.
    I reset the TC (ball point pen to the reset hole untill fast blinking amber light occurs) and entered the needed params and it returns this error.
    An error occured close the configuation window and try again.
    It must be a config parameter that I'm setting incorrectly. There's a bunch so who knows what I'm doing wrong. 
    I just need the to talk to my Imac so i can get a backup executed. A wireless connection will take too long.
    FYI: The cat-5 is brand new and is 100% functional (green light on the TC and router.)

  • Airport Express/Router Connection - Help Needed!

    I was given an Airport Express for Christmas to use to beam my iTunes from my iMac to a pair of powered speakers in a different room. I was using the AE in conjunction with a Netgear wireless router.
    It was a pig to set up but now I wish to change everything and I might need help.

  • Chicken of the VNC connection help needed

    Hello! I am not sure this is the right forum to post but it didn't seem to fit anywhere else. I have Airport Extreme v. 5.6 and am trying to connect to Chicken of the VNC. No luck. I selected the ARD settings in my system preferences, opened the firewall (which I don't like to do, wish there was a more secure way to control a client computer) and set up my connection on port 5900 in the airport admin utility. I have noticed that the IP my widget gives me is different than the one the base station reads. Help is appreciated Thanks

    Hi Taryn,
    Thanks for your quick and helpful reply. It is a bit
    advanced for me at this point to comprehend, so if
    you could simplify a bit for the remote connection
    newbie that would be great, thanks so much :o)
    That was the relatively simplistic explanation!
    In order to remotely connect, the VNC client (you) needs to know the IP address of the VNC server (the remote computer you wish to connect to).
    Every computer connected to the internet has an IP address, such as 200.100.54.14.
    Some people have a fixed IP address, most though will be assigned an IP address by their ISP and this will generally change as and when they connect at different times.
    However some people like to connect their networks to the internet which means that the network needs to share the single IP address connected to the internet.
    This is usually done by a router, the router connects to the internet and this router has the external IP address. The router then using NAT to share the single IP address with multiple computers on the internal network (a subnet or LAN (local area network)).
    What this means is that a computer on the LAN will have an internal IP address, this maybe fixed.
    So when you send a remote connection request to the remote network, the router needs to know which computer on the LAN you are trying to connect to. You need to map the traffic coming in to the router to the specific machines you are trying to connect to.
    This means that the remote router needs to be configured before you can remotely connect to a computer on the remote LAN.
    I did just find out that I have been attempting to
    connect with a laptop that has an every changing IP
    (according to the client),
    You (well he) could use a service such as Dynamic DNS to solve this issue.
    http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/
    but he is going to see
    about transferring his work to his home computer that
    has a fixed IP address. Does that sound more doable?
    Depends on whether he has a router (see above)
    Finally, do you think the pay services like ARD or
    Timbuktu are perhaps safer? We like COTVNC because it
    is free but I am very worried about the
    confidentiality of my data.
    COTVNC is according to the documentation secure.
    Have a look at this guide as well.
