Error message 0x80040fb3 when I sync my calender

Who can help me with this error message: 0x80040fb3. It only happens when I (try to) sync my Outlook calender. Syncing my Outlook adress works.
RIM/Blackberry don't mention this error on the support site.
Peter - who wants to sync his calender again.

Hello PeterHolland,

Receive error message 0x80040fb3 when syncing Outlook to 8830

I have been trying to update my address book on my device for a week and every time I try to sync, using the desktop manager, I get to a certain number of contacts and an error message shows up - 0x80040fb3. I've looked it up and it says information may be missing in the First, Last Name fields or Company. I have been through my Outlook contacts at least a dozen times, renamed people, double checked that all of the fields are filled in yet I still cannot synch. Is there something I am missing? Is there another way to get my contacts on to my device?

Get error message when trying to sync through Blackberry Device Manager

During the synchronization process, I get an error message:
Error encountered. Error code - 0x80040fb3. Check documentation.
This is during the Address Book synchronization.
Help...I have no contacts and only a portion of my notes are syncing to my phone.

The first 48 copy over as "First System" (Device)
The log says "unable to write application data record. Translation cancelled."
The rest of my 319 contacts are in the "Second System" (Outlook)

Popular Error Code 0x80040fb3

Greetings Folks!
This is my first post.
I have been reading the web and many, many, many, (read: ad nauseum) the various solutions to addressing this error message.
Each time I try and sync my address book, I get "Error encountered. Error code - 0x80040fb3. Check documentation."
I have tried pretty much everything I could find out there including wiping my device clean of every last morsol of infomation.
I have tried a hard reset;
Filling in First, Last, & Company name on EVERY contact in Outlook;
I have cleared the device memory of both the address book and the calendar; and
I searched and followed info on enabling advanced sync to figure out which contact was giving me the probblem.
Of course the latter was too convuluted with info for me to understand.
I am using the 8830 and have nebver had a problem with this since very recently. Sometimes when I try a sync, the record sync will stop at the same place and others it will go further into the number of records before telling me to beat it with the error code.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
thbanks much in advance.

Hi,
Let's try this:
perform a clean uninstall of the DM

Install this version of DM 4.2.2

Error Code 0x80040fb3 - FIX (8520)

It got ERROR CODE 0x80040fb3 after I updated my desktop software to version 6. I tried to sync with Outlook (2007) and before it completed I got this error message.
I uninstalled and went back to previous version. That didn't work.
I reinstalled everything and by this time the desktop software (new version) would not even connect to my BB (Curve 8520). Thought I was toast and was getting ready to go back to my old Palm Pilot system.
Then someone suggested REMOVING MY BATTERY then try again. Believe it or not, that fixed it.
I did, however, make sure that my first sync with Outlook was a ONE WAY sync that over-wrote the data (in the desktop software setup). After I had it sync successfully I put it back to TWO WAY sync.
Very happy to have this working again - hope this helps others having the same problem!

I have the same problem with BB 8900 Curve.
Just today I installed the new BB Desktop SW 6.0
I did more or less all I red on blogs. But doesn't work.
Thanks for help.

8330 Curve Error message 00x80040fb3

My 8330 Curve is giving me an error message while syncing with my computer. I've narrowed it down (by syncing each thing individually) to when the address book is time to sync. It gets about half way through and then comes up with a box that says
"Error message: 00x80040fb3"
Does anyone know what this means or have gotten it fixed? I really don't want to pay $40 for a one time only fix with a technician if it's something I could do myself.
Please let me know anything!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
You got your error code wrong, btw, by one digit...only one leading zero at the beginning. But, no matter, I still managed to find the relevant KB...see here:

Hope that helps!

Error Encountered 0x80040FB3, Check Documentation

I ahve been using the desktop software successfully for a number of months. Recently a colleague changed an appointment (Outlook 2007) that I added to my clanedar.
Now, when I try to synch the Curve (8330), I receive a dialog box explaing the difference between my Outlook entry and the device. No matter what option I choose, I then get the error message, "Error Encountered 0x80040FB3, Check Documentation". and then it closes the synchronization. The Blackberry support says this is related to the address book, but I never get that far in the synchornization.
Any recommendations?
Also, would it be easier to wipe clean the Calendar on the Blackberry and then start over? How do you do that?
Thanks in advance for your responses.

Hello! I began having the same problem yesterday, 4/21, when I tried syncing with my Yahoo! calendar. After looking all over Blackberry's website, I contacted Verizon Wireless, my wireless provider, today and was told that apparently Yahoo! did an update to their site and it was preventing Blackberry users to sync with the calendar. I was also told that Blackberry is aware of the problem and have been working with Yahoo! to resolve the problem. Hopefully it will be resolved soon!! I hope this helps.

Windows Vista: Ipod Error Message, no longer read by PCs

Hello,
I have a 5th generation black ipod video with 30GB of memory.
The other day I hooked it up to my laptop (Toshiba, 4 months old) that it's been functioning on with no problems whatsoever. This weird error message flashed twice about it not being able to sync because of some software problem.
Eversince then, the only thing I can charge my ipod on is the family treadmill in the basement (~_~) as no other computer in the house recognizes it. I can't even charge it through the wall sockets, either.
I have changed the ipod cord, still no luck. I've also reset the device about 3 or 4 times and uninstalled, restarted the laptop then reinstalled itunes. I would like to reset it back to factory settings but that's impossible as computers/laptops don't pick it up. I live very far from a Mac store...
What's a girl to do? I can't live without my Busta Rhymes and Wu-Tang Clan!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

you have to update Vista go to this site and up-date http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Error message into a Variable.

Dear users,
I have a rather usual (unusual from the weekend beers for me though!!) query which I can't figure out a proper way to implement.
My requirement is like this:
I have a message class in which I want to define a text 'Employee number & not found'.
I want to use this in the program, but not to raise this error. Instead, I want to move this error message with the Employee number into a Character(200) variable.
So instead of using MESSAGE e0xx(messageclass) USING employee number, I would like to move the error text into a variable which looks like:
lv_text = e0xx(messageclass) USING '1234' which stores the text 'Employee number 1234 not found' in lv_text.
How would I acheive it??
Thanks, V!

Try tis way
message e999(00) with i_emp-empno into lv_text.
press f1 in message will provide you more details

IPod seen by windows, not by iTunes+ weird error message

I have a first generation 2GB iPod nano and i use windows xp. I can't load any music because iTunes doesn't see my iPod and an error message pops up that reads like this: "iTunes: iTunes.exe corrupt file. The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes is corrupt and unredable. Please run the checkdisk utility." I've tried everything, reinstalling iTunes, different versions, reinstalling OS, resetting iPod, even on another computer, same problem. Other than that, the iPod works normally, it's just lacking music..
and why is there no email adress from apple for service qustions? 10x

I still don't get it, how can I put it in disk mode if I CANNOT see the iPod in iTunes..?
Did you read the document i linked you to? here's another link to it:
Putting iPod into Disk Mode
whereabouts in that procedure in that document (that you get to by clicking that link) does it say that you have to connect it to iTunes to put it into disk mode?
... never mind ... i guess you've fixed it anyway ...

Error message iPod cannot update b/c all of the playlists no longer exist

Hello. I have been getting this error message. "Songs on the iPod "MAR(the name of my iPod)" cannot update because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist." And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist. I have a feeling ths might have to do with the fact that on vacation the person I was visiting gave me a gift of putting all of his music that would fit into the external hard drive part of my iPod, and for the past week or so I have been putting that music onto my 40 GB portable hard drive at home. I suspect I took a vital folder out of my iPod by accident. Right now I have the folder iPod_control if I open my iPod up in My Computer. Am I missing something? Right now my iPod is empty because iTunes made a composite playlist last week and I deleted it thinking I could get my real playlists back. Can you help me, or reccomend a site/someone who can? Thank you.
PC Windows XP

hiya!
And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist.
let's just doublecheck this. folks get this message if they have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in their itunes "ipod" preferences tab. so bring up that tab ("edit > preferences", click "ipod" while the ipod is showing up in the source list), and do a playlist by playlist crosscheck of the playlists selected in that tab, and the playlists showing up in the itunes sourcelist.
is there any playlist selected in the preferences tab that isn't showing up in the sourcelist?

Windows Blue Screen Error Message Appears As Soon As IPod Connected

Everytime I connect my IPod to my computer, I get the Windows Blue Screen error message. Thought it was the cable, so plugged cable in by itself. No problem. Uninstalled IPod and ITunes software and then plugged in IPod, still got the Blue Screen. The Blue Screen says something about "recent plugged in device problem". It is not the cable, it must be the IPod. Did not have this problem when I bought it. Tried it on labtop and get the same error message. I can't do updater or anything that requires me to plug the IPod into a computer because the Blue Screen appears immediately. When I unplug, the Blue Screen remains and locks up the computer so I have to restart each time. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help.

Hi Mike thank you for replying,
I am not able to start the computer in safe mode, safe mode with networking, last good known configuration etc, Each time it quickly blue screens and restarts about two secs into the process.
I was unable to try a clean OS install from the disk as it gave the blue screen error shown in the original post. The same thing happened when I tried to use the repair option on the XP home disc. So i can't get into the computer at all to start diagnosing the fault, the only clue I have is the error message, and after searching the internet I haven't found much enlightenment from that yet.
If you can help me out or suggest where to search it would be much appreciated.
Thx

IPod Error Message: "The disk could not be read from or written to."

Hello!
I was syncing my sister's video iPod (30GB) and this error message pops up "Attempting to copy to the disk. "SARAH'S IPO" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I have restored it three times already, but once it starts putting the music and files back onto the iPod it pops up with that error message. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes and iPod software available. My OS is Windows XP.
Is this something serious? Will I be able to fix it myself or will I need to send it in to be fixed by Apple? Will that be expensive? We didn’t get the Apple replacement plan. D=
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. ^_^

Okay I went thru that entire list and here's what I got...
(1) My OS is XP and is running fine.
(2) I've updated my windows
(3) I don't know of any software that might be interfering.
(4) There are no damaged files.
(5) My Windows hard-drive is not damaged and I've tried restoring my iPod's disk thru iTunes but it still doesn't work.
(6) I don't have an iPod photo and I can't find the folder to delete the cache if if I did.
(7) The USB cord is firmly connected into my USB port and my iPod
(8) My music is on my external hard-drive so I need to keep 3rd-party hardware connected
(9) I will try another USB cord to see if that works.
Is there anything else that I can do? Can Apple fix this?
Please let me know.

IPod Touch will no longer sync...error message.

For some reason my older iPod Touch without a camera on it will not sync any more and I am getting an error message saying this iPod cannot be synced. Now I had it set up to sync over Wi-Fi and I would occasionally hook up to the computer with the cable and got error messages on both. Now I read something about removing the SC Info Folder. If I do that will that mess things up with syncing my iPhone?

What is the exact wording of the error message?
