Error "Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"

I have a Curve 8300. With OS v4.5.0.81. And I am on a BB Social network plan through my cell providor "Fido".
I mainly use it for Facebook & Twitter and have no problems using either app. However I was prompted for an update for my twitter recently but wasn't near a wifi spot to update. Just decided to update today at home where I do have wifi. However when I go to do the update, it gives me the following error:
"Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Twitter for BlackBerry Smartphones"
I have scoured for answers but haven't had much luck. I tried checking for OS updates. I apparently have the most current one that my phone will support. I uninstalled twitter and then tried to reinstall it via the twitter Icon on my phone. Got the same error. Tried reinstalling it through app world, it installed just fine. However it installed the version that I had previously had. So I went to twitter's settings and checked for updates. It prompted for one as I expected it would. And when I tried to get the update. It gave me that error again. I can use twitter as it is, but I don't see why my phone shouldn't be able to get all the updates for various apps. Is it a software compatability issue? Is it a hardware compatability issue? Is there anything I can do to get the update or do I just have a phone that won't take some app updates?

Hi and welcome to the forums!
The 8300 is not listed in the device upgrade table for Blackberry device OS v5.0. The newer versions of apps like Twitter and Facebook require device OS v5.0 to run correctly. Might be time to consider a new device!

I hate this bold 9700 series 2 no carrier and find it to be a pathetic product backed up by even more pathetic support so I have decided to use it as a torch. There is an app for this but it requires app world first. Are you trying to say that I MUST have a carrier and they will resolve this issue but otherwise RIM cannot do anything about their own product?
Hello and Welcome to the Forums!
We are so sorry that you are having so many difficulties. While many experience the same (a search here will reveal that fact), there are also many who have very positive experiences with their BB. Not every device is suitable for everyone -- which IMHO is why there are so many choices.
In addition, but for AppWorld, front line support for BB's is, by contract, not provided by RIM. The carriers and authorized resellers are responsible for front line formal support to end users. It is possible to bypass your carrier and seek assistance direct from RIM, but such involves fees since you are bypassing your support agreement with your carrier. The "Support and Services" tab toward the top of these forum pages provide information about that. But, if you do go through your carrier for support, they can escalate into RIM at no fee to you if they so choose to.
As to AppWorld Support (beyond what we volunteer to provide in these forums), that is available via this portal:
https://www.blackberry.com/CSOHelp/index.do?ft=generic
If you choose to submit to them in this manner, then please use, in the "Please select a component:" field, the AppWorld Billing/Payment selection. Any other selection will simply route you back anonymously to these public forums.
As to your question, RIM and the carriers both participate in AppWorld. My suspicion is that the carriers get a portion of the costs for the apps that are vended via AppWorld -- but that's just my suspicion. Hence, the use of AppWorld indeed requires a carrier (and, indeed, the proper data plan level from them).
But, AppWorld is merely a portal, vending apps that are (for the most part) developed by others. As such, it is not the only portal in the world for BB apps. There are a few, I think, apps that are exclusively vended via AppWorld...but I think that number is rather small. Consequently, if you desire an app that will allow your BB to function as you desire, you should seek out alternative vending portals. There are plenty.
Good luck!

My phone says my Pearl 8110 does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Windows Live Messenger

Is that possible? I really need my messenger on my phone

Hey jojokk,
Thanks for the reply.
The best way to check for updates of the device software is going to www.blackberry.com/update. But make sure you create a backup using BlackBerry® Desktop Software.
Let me know if you know if you have any more questions.

App World - Sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed

Hi, I’ve just got a blackberry which is my first. I am new to this. I'm trying to download the App World on my phone because I would like to get some applications on my phone. As I try to download the App World it says "Sorry, your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support Blackberry App World." I have tried to download this on my computer Via Cable and on my Blackberry Via the Browser. If this doesn’t work for my blackberry is there any way around this so I can download applications from somewhere else.
Network Provider: 02
Network Plan: Pay As You Go
Thanks.

Hi, thanks. Is this something my provider can activate free of charge or does this come at a monthly payment?
Can someone provide a bit of information about this please.
Thanks.

Your Device does not meet System requirements that are needed to support BB App World

Hello,
My last Torch died with a JVM. Just got it replaced today and I want to get my Downloaded apps back. After I have restored the device from BlackBerry Desktop, none of my downloaded apps are there. I have a brand new 9860 , running Bundle 7.1. I launch App World. It tells me to upgrade. When I follow the screen upgrades, I reach an error message : Notice: Sorry your device does not meet the system requirements that are needed to support BB App World. I have a brand new phone so first question...can I upgrade App World over Wi-FI. or do I have to get a Data Plan from my Telco first ? I have been running my old phone fine with no Data plan but enjoying BBM and Cell use. Not happy.

Does not meet the system requirement for installing BB App World

I bought a Curve 8520 in Singapore yesterday. When i tried to download App world into this phone, it says "my phone does not meet the system requirement for the software". does it refer to hardware specification or the BB O/s version on the phone. How can fix it because being able to use App world is one of the purposes that i buy a BB.
Also, How about MS Live Messenger , facebook ? Do I need to install them seperately through App World?
Please help!

Hi there!
Please see these links for reference:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/appworld/download.jsp#tab_tab_system_requirements
http://www.blackberry.com/app_includes/devicesoftware/appworld/appworld_availability_en.html
A key component in accessing AppWorld is your carrier -- if they are not delivering it, then you can't get it. If you don't have an adequate plan from them that incudes it, then you can't get it. Hence, if you meet the hardware requirements AND it is available in your country, then you need to contact your carrier to find out how you can get it via their network.
All that said, AppWorld is merely a storefront, vending apps developed by others...there are many other storefronts available that don't have the same restrictions.
Good luck!

I would like to run the most secure version of firefox on my computer, but my computer does not meet the system requirements for the latest version

i would like to run the most secure version of firefox on my computer, but my computer does not meet the system requirements for the latest version. is there a way i can have the security of firefox 8 and still be able to run it on my old computer. i currently an running firefox 3.6. it is a bit slow, but it is functional.

Currently Firefox 3.6.24 is as secure as Firefox 8.0.1 is. Firefox 3.6.x will continue to get security updates until next spring, although the exact date hasn't yet been determined.
Which of the system requirements are you lacking? <br />
Processor wise you're stuck with what you got, but RAM can be upgraded. WinXP is still supported in all versions of Firefox and will be continued to be supported until Windows drops support for WinXP sometime in 2014.

Turbo Intel Drive - 'your laptop does not meet the minimal requirements'

I have a HP Pavillion dv6-2155dx laptop with OS Windows 7, 32bit.
I recently just reformatted the laptop after receiving it from my aunt
and was redownloading the drivers after the format when the Intel Turbo Driver wouldn't work.
I'd get it to install, however a message saying my laptop doesn't meet the minimal requirements
would pop up after it finished installing.
How do I fix this?

The Airport 802.11n Cards use MiMo technology to communicate with the Computer. MiMo stands for Multiple In, Multiple Out, resulting in much higher datarates. This allows the processor to boost the power of the Airport Card's Chip.
Only Core2Duo Processors support MiMo.

This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes

Trying to update my iTunes, the installer gives the error message:
"This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for this version of iTunes"
I have gone through the procedures listed in the support section, and have completely removed all Apple software, deleted the file folders etc etc.... still no joy.
This is most annoying as I've just received my brand new iPhone 6+ and I was trying to backup my old device to iTunes so I could restore it onto the new phone and get using it today. Hacked off big time :-\

Well I've eventually managed a work-around. Ver. 11.5.1 was no good because it wasn't compatible with my iphone 5, next one wasn't compatible with my iphone 6+, eventually got 11.4 installed so I could back up my old iphone 5 to it, then restore that backup onto my iphone 6+, which then wasn't up to date with the current iOS so I had to do that before it would sync my apps.
What a ball ache.
If someone would kindly let me know when the latest iTunes works again I's appreciate it, until then I'll have to stick with what I've got.
I need to start again with my music collection, re-import everything and get it on my iphone, because I had to delete it all a few months ago when iOS updated because it didn't have enough storage space on the device! Somehow lost it all off my iTunes in the process!
TBH I've always found the Apple system hideously complicated and infuriating when it doesn't work properly. Instead of making it more and more complex it needs simplifying and making fool-proof so people don't have to go through all this BS just to use their **** phone!

My PC (XP, 2 GHz Celeron, 768 M ram) does not meet the minimum requirements for upgrade to version 6, so how can I stop Firefox from nagging me to upgrade?

I would LIKE to install version 6, but since my machine (XP, 2 GHz Celeron, 768 M ram) does not meet the system requirements there is no reason to continue the annoying nag screens.

Just got this error message - The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture

Help. I have an iMAC - not even one year old - just got this message - The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.
I have not made any changes to my machine. Help - I can't get to my images

Try restarting your system.
If that does not help, we will need to know your Aperture version and MacOS X version. And do you use an external monitor? Then disconnect it before rebooting.

Your system does not meet the minimum requirement for this update (9996)

Hi
recently had to reformat my system with windows 7 profesional. All windows updates where performed and all the drivers where installed correctly except the ethernet driver. windows 7 cannot find a suitable driver. I then downloaded the driver from the link provided on the hpe-590t download site, which is described as a intel gigabyte driver sp52222, however the software driver comes up with the following message your system does not meet the minimum requirement for this update (9996). Has anyone had a similar problem.
Hardware Ids are:

I solicited the the assistance of another one of our experts who is a driver guru, you may see his reply here:

I tend to agree that either the NIC is bad or possiblly a factory restore would help.

Fail to create a VD Collection with error "The Virtual desktop template does not meet the provisioning requirements."

I get the following error when I try to create a Virtual desktop
collection;
"The Virtual desktop template does not meet the provisioning requirements."
although I'm specifing a sysprep'd VM installed WS2012 for a virtual desktop template.
Is there any way to resolve?
Or, is there any couses of this message?
thanks.

I realize this is an old thread. I'll post and see if I get a response. If not, I'll create a new thread. My question is how does Microsoft suggest SPLA partners create VDI pools since they cannot license Windows 7 or 8 via SPLA? Why
would you restrict the provisioning to only the desktop operating systems that you won't allow partners to license for deployment?
Are there any plans to change this to include 2008 R2 or WS2012 as the base OS for a VD template?

HT4007 The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture.

The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture. I have not used Aperture in a while and just got this error message. I tried applying OS updates and reinstalling Aperture and still get the same message. Does anybody have a solution or work around.

Are you using a non-standard Graphics Cards? Then this may be the reason.
You may also get this error message, if you accidentally booted into "Safe Boot Mode". Then certain extensions of the Graphics card will be disabled and Aperture cannot be launched.
Reboot and make sure that you this time will boot into regular boot mode.
See: Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
If you are indeed running the system in Safe Mode, the question is, what made this happen? Do you use a wireless mouse and keyboard? There is a strange bug that makes Mac OS X boot into Safe mode, if you turn the wireless devices on, while the system is booting. Make sure they are active, before you boot.
But if you did not boot into Safe Mode, you could try to boot into this mode to reset the graphics card and then boot again into regular mode.
Merry Christmas!

Best way to announce that the hardware does not meet the minimum requirements

     Hi Everybody!!!
     I'm in the process of tiding my App up, and I stumbled into a requirement that needs to be addressed. I'm not quite familiar with the latest trends, so I was wondering if anybody could recommend a way to inform the user if the hardware
to use does not meet the minumum requirements.
     In a nutshell:
* I just created a game using Direct3D / DirectX 11,
* I'm using "DrawIndexedInstanced", which means that the videocard to use should meet at least DirectX v10 (my shaders are using model 9_3 but I tested it in a computer with DirectX9 model 3 (or so the nvidia brochure said), and the game pretty
much died in my arms).
* According to the App Certification Requirements: "if you choose a minimum feature level higher than 9_1, your app must detect at launch whether or not the current hardware meets the minimum requirements. If not, the app must display a message to
the customer detailing the Direct3D requirements."
* I know how to detect the Direct3D level supported by the current videocard. What I would like to know is how to tell the user that the videocard does not support the minimum requirements.
     I don't have much knowledge about the current trends:
* I assume that displaying a message box may not be the best option, as that would mean I need to link the MFC layer to do so (the game is in Visual C++ and that's what I would do if it were one of my day-job projects). I'm quite sure that
is too much of a library just to show a message box... not to mention that most likelly the MFC is no longer supported in a Metro application...
* I was thinking about displaying a nice graphic warning about the issue, but if the D3DDevice1 is not what I expect then I don't think I can be sure that at least it can display the graphic with the information.
* I'm not quite sure if I should be linking to a .NET Library ("System.Windows.Forms" comes to mind), but then again maybe it's too much of a library for just a messagebox.
* Then again, displaying that message in a command prompt may not be the best idea either.
     Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

     Hi Chuck,
     I tried your idea, but the game always crashed when calling the DrawIndexedInstanced() function in a computer that only supported DirectX Level 9.1 (plenty of those computers at my day-job, sometimes I swear this office could be
a museum). The crash started as a driver unload call, and after that everything goes down.
     I also tried using the WARP mode, but the performance was horrible, and after a minute of playing I started to have temperature issues with the CPU (I did not see that one coming)
     What I finished doing was to create two sets of shaders (pixel and vertex):
* If the feature reported by D3D11CreateDevice was 9_3 or above, I'd use my very own and happy shaders, compiled in 9_3 model. Beautiful performance with DrawIndexedInstanced().
* If on the other hand the feature reported by D3D11CreateDevice was either 9_2 or 9_1, I'd use a set of shaders compiled for level 9_1. That seemed to be enough to draw a couple of images on the screen and tell the user, using my own game elements,
that the computer did not match the hardware requirements.
      It looks like this was a good approach. My game passed the certification test, and it is currently on the AppStore.
      Best Regards,
      Tarh Ik
