Error when trying to uninstall blackberry desktop software

I have a blackberry storm and I was having problems with the desktop manager and media manager. I have tried to uninstall it and I get an error 2738 and it says could not access VBScript run time for custom action and it will not uninstall. Please help because I am no longer able to sync, import or export pics from my storm to my computer.

Efforts to use, repair, and uninstall Blackberry desktop software failed. Help?

I upgraded from XP to Windows 7, and had to reinstall the Blackberry Desktop software. I'm looking for help to get it working. I've installed version 6.0. i'm on Curve 8330 (Verizon). Below describes mt efforts:
When I run the desktop software, I click "organizer', and then I connect the BB and wait unti the bottom right of the BB desktop software says "connecting...' then "sync". i then click the "configure settings..." and get a pop-up window titled "blackberry data synchronization" with message "operation in progress. please wait". The pop-up window self-disappears. It reappears every time I click the "configure settings..." button. However, this has run for hours. The software appears to be stuck in some sort of infinite loop.
So, I tried to repair the software as follows: Start - Control panel - programs and features - blackberry desktop software 6.0 - Next - Next (Repair is checked) - Install. I get a window titled "blackverry desktop software 6.0" that reads "The feature you are trying to use is on a netword resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate parth to a folder containint the installation package 'blackverry desktop software.msi' in teh box below. Use source: C:\Users\Jim\AppData\Local\Temp\WZSE0.TMP\
. I clock ok and try agin and get the message "the path 'c:\users\myname\appdata\local\temp\wzse0.tmp\blackberry desktop software.msi' cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try agin, or try to find the installation package 'blackberry desktop software.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product blackberry desktop software 6.0' I am unable to find this file on my computer, but "windows search" has been less than 100% successful for me in Windows 7. So, I clicked "cancel", and get the following message: "error 1706. No valid source could be found for product blackberry desktop software 6.0. the windows installer cannot continue. So. I click "finish".
So, I try to uninstall the software altogether as followstart - Control panel - programs and features - blackberry desktop software 6.0 - Next - Next (REMOVE is checked) - Next ("Remove all user settings for Blackberry desktop software" is checked.) - Remove. I then get the following message: "error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file c:\windows\installer\blackberry desktop software.msi". When I click "ok" to this window - I see "rolling back action" status bar. I then click "finish".
So,my efforts to use the software, repair the software, and uninstall the software have failed. Any advice?
I see no "blackberry desktop software.msi" in the c:\windows\installer\ folder. I am able to view hidden files in Windows Explorer (Tools Folder options... - View tab - "show hidden files, folders, and driver" is selected".
I'll restart my windows search index tonight.

Thank you Viciousferret,
I re-downloaded the the 600_b047_multilanguage.exe to my PC using thelink you provided. I then ran it. I then did the following:
selected "NExt",
then "REMOVE" (the options were "repair" and "remove", not "modify" or "uninstall"), then NEXT,
then checked "remove all user settings for blackberry desktop software". then NEXT
then the REMOVE button
then FINISH
So, it appears the uninstall was successful.
The next step of your suggestion was to: "Then proceed with the clean uninstall by performing all the steps: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02206" This link provides 5 tasks.
1) The first task includes instructions to ": Uninstall BlackBerry Desktop Software". Should I skip this step because I already did it above? If not, would you please provide the instructions for Windows 7? Only instructions for other operating systems are shown here.
2) The second task is to "remove computer registry entries". The fifth step gives instructions for XP, Vista and 7 64-bit. i use Windows 7 (32-bit). Are you able to provide the instructions for Windows 7? Also, the instructions to back up the registry are: "select My Computer (or Computer in Windows Vista) at the top of the folder structure, click File, and choose Export to export the file to your preferred location.'. When i select start then Computer and then click File (after verifying the "Computer" is highlighted in theWindows Explorer window, I am not presetned with an opportunity to click "Export'. My options are 'add a network location", 'create shortcut (greyed out), "delete", "rename", "properties" and "close". Are you able to provide additional guidance as to how i am failing see "export" when i seemingly follow these instructions?
3) Step 3 gives instructions for deletig folders from teh computer. It also lacks instructions for Windows 7. Are you able to provide them?
4) Step 4 provides a link to follow. that link also lacks instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit). Would you be able to provide instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit) users?

I am getting an error when trying to download new iTunes software to new Windows 7 computer.

I am getting an error when trying to download iTunes to a new Lenovo laptop with Windows 7. Says... An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32",version="8.0.50727.6195",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="86". HRESULT:0x80070BC9

These ones are tricky. But the following instructions are worth a try.
First do a complete uninstall of iTunes and related components (but don't reinstall just yet), as per the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
a. Launch regedit (Start >> Search Programs and Files >> type Regedit and open the regedit that comes up.)
b. Access the following Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData \S-1-5-18\Components
c. Perform the following actions
i. Right Click on Components Folder
ii. Select Permissions
iii. Select Full Control and Read Permissions options
iv. Select Advanced Button
v. Select Owner Tab
vi. Select to Change Owner to the Administrators
vii. Check the option “Replace owner on subcontainers and objects”
viii. Select OK when prompted that it may not change all.
ix. Select Apply
x. Select Apply again
xi. Exit the Registry Editor
Now try reinstalling iTunes again. Does it go in properly this time?

Error Msg - Verify Internet Connection (BlackBerry Desktop Software)

I'm getting an error on one of our BlackBerry 8900 Curve.... "Reload Software 513"
I've tired updating the software with and with out the battery on the device while its plugged to my PC. As BlackBerry Desktop Software starts to download modules I get the error.... "An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your Internet Connection or try again later, if the problem persists."
I've been having this issue since yesterday morning. By the way, I do have internet connection.
Anyone else run into this issue and was able to resolve it?

Use this method to upgrade the OS, make sure that Desktop Manager is is not loaded or running.
First locate your carrier and the OS file you wish to use.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

P205 S6267 problem uninstalling blackberry desktop software error 2738

I have been using Blackberry (BB) desktop software on my laptop to connect with my BB Curve 8320 (version 4.5.0.81)
When trying to syncronize with Windows calendar (running vista home premium with sp2) i encountered a problem where the calendar info on the blackberry was sync'd to windows but 16 hours earlier.
I was told by the helpful BB support people at T-mobile that i needed to download version 6.1 of the BB desktop software as this would fix the problem.
i downloaded and installed (they omitted to add that i should have uninstalled version 4.5 before!).
I now have desktop software that still shows version 4.5...... when i open it up. consequently i tried to uninstall using control panel. In control panel it shows version 6.1, but will not uninstall giving me error message 2738 "could not access VB script run time for custom action"
Also tried uninstalling using ccleaner, same result.
Any ideas out there???
Thanks
Ian

Error 1303 when trying to install newest Desktop Software

I keep getting an error when I try to install the newest version of desktop software. I get Error 1303 that says I have insufficient privileges and to log in as an administrator.
I am the administrator. I have tried to change ownership of the folder but the Research in Motion folder does not allow me to do so. It is read-only. I tried to give myself full control permissions and it will not let me do so. I tried to delete the Research in motion folder under program files>common files and it does not allow me to do so. I tried to delete the research in motion folder under program files and it didn't let me do that either.
I am extremely frustrated by this please help!

Me too, same trouble no answers! I have tried online and disk versions, no difference. I have Vista on my PC, how about you?

Error when trying to install adf-desktop-integration.

Hi,
I developed an integrated workbook using the ADF Desktop Integration technology (JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.0, Microsoft Office 2007, Windows 7)
One of my users encountered an error when is trying to run the setup for the adf-desktop-integration.
The steps for his error are the following (he is using Windows XP and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007):
- Enable .NET Programmability support from Office installation
- Run the setup file for adf-desktop-integration. The following error appears in a popup:
The following solution cannot be loaded because Microsoft Office support for the .Net Framework 3.5 is not installed: adfdi-excel-addin-runtime.vsto.
For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=135965
If someone else encountered this error and found a solution please let me know.
Thank you,
Alex.

Hi,
The problem is that my user already have installed on his computer the .Net Framework 3.5 SP1.
In the section "3.5 Installing ADF Desktop Integration" from the link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E24382_01/web.1112/e16180/inst_conf_dev_env.htm#CHDHJIIG is specified that when the setup tool is run, the following software are installed:
1. Windows Installer 3.1
This software I suppose is already installed or the setup tool managed to install it, otherwise I should have an explicit error.
2. Microsoft .NET Framework
This software .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 is already installed.
3. Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Microsoft Office
My user already has Visual Studio Tools for the Office system 3.0 Runtime
Now lets take a look on the same link at the section "3.2 Required Oracle ADF Modules and Third-Party Software". Because my users are using only the Runtime edition of ADF desktop integration they don't need JDeveloper or an Application server.
Taken in consideration the section "Installing the Runtime Edition of ADF Desktop Integration" from your link, my users are using the adfdi-excel-runtime-client-installer.zip (this file is provided by me and is taken from my installation of Oracle Middleware-11.1.1.4.0).
Thank you,
Darie.

ERROR 1639 when trying to uninstall iPod update software

" - invalid command line argument. Consult the windows installer SDK for detailed command line help."
What on earth? After installing all the required software to use my new iPod Nano, it still would not work. Tried everything including uninstalling the software to try again..wouldn't let me uninstall it!?
I previously had a iPod Shuffle that worked perfectly, but was stolen, hence replacing it with the Nano. I wondered if this software was unsuitable for this model. Either way Im clueless as what to do next, any suggestions welcome! I feel like dropping something hard and pointy onto it from a great height!

I think something of that sort happened to me but then I solved it... the mater was that I had USB ports on the front and on the back of the computer (where you turn it on) and I was connecting the iPod on the front and a pop up of that sort appeared... I tried connectiong it on the back and it worked just fine...
I really hope this helps..

HT4972 I keep getting an error when trying to update my ipad software to IOS5. The error is a Network timeout error when in fact my connection to the internet is stable and strong. Any suggestions?

I've tried to update my ipad softward to the new IOS 5 software but keep getting internet connection errors.
Initially, I thought it was related to my internet connection but I've tried with full connection and still getting the same error.
Any suggestions would be a great help.
PS - from South Africa

Thanks King_Penguin - I've disabled both my firewall and antivirus software to no avail.
Any other suggestions?
Using Windows Vista - not sure if that make any difference???

I encountered an error when trying to uninstall CS4

I had CS4 and CS6 installed on my Macbook Pro. The uninstall app for CS4 wouldn't work so I deleted CS4 files manually thinking that I could then reinstall CS4 and then uninstall it properly. Didn't work and so I know I am stuck with a bunch of CS4 files that might interfere with CS6. Help! Thanks in advance!

Different suites are normally independent of each other and should not interefere with one another. You can try using the Cleaner tool to straighten things out.
