I need help to recover after Link uninstalle​d during attempt to download updated drivers

I bought a new unlocked Classic.  I planned to switch from my Q10 to the Classic using the device switch option in Link.  I think that I had Link v. 1.2.3.56 (or maybe .58?) installed on my Windows 8.1 Pro PC.
Using Link I backed up my Q10 and then connected the Classic with the USB cable.  The Classic reported that it needed new drivers.  Soon I got the option to download BB Blend, Link and drivers.  I chose the option to install Blend and update Link and the drivers.  The installation/update operation failed.  I can't remember exactly the error message, but I believe it said that need to try again.
I was stunned to see that the desktop shortcut to Link was gone!  The programs list in Windows Control Panel shows only BlackBerry Device Software updater installed.  The RIM folder on the hard drive contains only \BlackBerry Link\en\help_files.  I can't find an executable anywhere. 
I downloaded Link and attempted to install it, but after I received the message that a newer version was already installed on my PC, I canceled it.
How do I recover?  I'd like to get Link back, the new Blend software and the current Windows drivers required for the Classic.  Fortunately, my last backup of the Q10 is there in the folder \users\username\documents\BlackBerry\backup.
Finally, I considered using the Device Switch app on both devices, but I couldn't download it.  On both devices, I got the error message:  "An error has occurred and BlackBerry World will be closed.  Try waiting a few minutes and reopening BlackBerry World."  That was hours ago.  I'll search the hardware forum for information about BB World.
Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I need Help with the dynamic link feature in CS3

    Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue I am having? I have the adobe cs3 master collection. Having watched tutorials on the dynamic link feature my version seems not to have the same options as those I have viewed. I wish to send my premiere video creation to encore using dynamic link, however when I click "file" and then "adobe dynamic link" the only options available are about "adobe after effects". I can export to encore however I am only alloowed to export one premiere sequence to one new encore file, I cannot create an encore file and import several premiere sequence into the same encore project. That means currently I can only have an encore creation with one premiere sequence in it, and I have no adobe dynamic link. Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks very much for that guys but my premiere media encoder only lets me export as: MPEG1, MPEG1-VCD, MPEG2, MPEG2 blu-ray, MPEG2-DVD, MPEG2-SVCD, H.264, H.264 blu-ray, Adobe Flash Video, Quicktime, Real Media, Windows Media. Are any of these formats DV AVI?
    Am I to export my videos direct to encore or save them elsewhere (e.g desktop). It seems that I cannot export sequences from different premiere projects to the same encore project.
    Sorry if any of these questions seem obvious, I am just new to premiere and keen to do things right from the off.
    Many thanks again guys.

    Harm is correct.  For SD DVD, exporting as a DV AVI file from Pr will give you good results.  Encore's Automatic Transcoding will give you maximum quality for the available disc space.

    Edited by: SAP PQ on Sep 26, 2011 5:24 PM

    MD09 is pegging. In SAP pegging is dynamic, meaning that there's no fixed link between purchase order and process order in your case.
    This is why you did not get the same result when you tried again later.
    Such a link can exist only if you do direct procurement for the order.

    It's better to post the URL of the feed (as you have subsequently done) than the contents of the feed .
    From the FeedValidator report the feed is basically OK for iTunes. There are several occasions where 'content:encoded' sections (following immediately on 'guid' tags) should be enclosed in
    <description>...</description>
    tags: however all this will be ignored by iTunes anyway and only applies to other readers. The 'potentially dangerous content' referred to by FeedValidator is within the 'content:encoded' tags and so isn't relevant to iTunes. They are referring to an inline css style, and I don't know whether this might cause a problem elsewhere.
    You should really have a language tag, e.g.
    <language>en-us</language>
    (you have a dc:language tag but that's for a different system). This should be placed in the top section, before the first 'item' tag.
    It's advisable to have an 'itunes:explicit' tag for each 'item' -
    <itunes:explicit>yes IF CONTAINS ADULT MATERIAL, OTHERWISE no</itunes:explicit>
    it's not compulsory if you have no adult material, but you must have a 'yes' if you do.
    You can check your feed by subscribing in iTunes from the 'Advanced' menu - this has the same result as clicking the 'Subscribe' button on the Store page. If it works OK there you are ready to submit it.

    Make sure you are using either OpenDNS or Google Public DNS. It may in fact resolve it, but there could be other factors or causes.

    Sounds like a verification issue on whatever marketplace you bought PS Touch from. Did you try contacting Google or Apple to see what they say?

    Hi Puneet,
    What exactly are you trying to do? Can you describe where in the system you are doing it? There are different options....
    What about a document report with a link to the Web site URL you want to open?
    What about a read-only URL field on the document, populated with the URL you want to open?
    What about the desktop links channel?
    Lots of different ways to skin that cat (sorry cat lovers) ..your code looks like it might be the most difficult approach.

  • Need help with MC with links inside

    Anyone can shine some light on trying to reproduce something
    similar to this?
    http://www.focus.ca/home.html
    What I need is how to do one of those tabs that aniamtes down
    and reveals links inside. I have been at this for days.
    I am very new to flash and need more assistance on the
    construction of this project.
    So far, I know how to make a MC and animated it for
    rollover/rollout, but the link inside won't work because the action
    for the MC is interferring with the inside button actions. So, what
    is my next step? I have my MC on one frame in the main timeline and
    need to perform all animation inside that and add buttons also?
    Would I put an Insible Button in their too?
    I need help?

    As example of a text based navbar like Roddy suggested can be seen here: Text Based Navbar. With it you can have complete control of the font (just use a Web Safe Font, color, rollover color and size. You can then copy and paste the text box to each page.

  • Need help. Activation after update iOS 5.1 is not working!!

    Need Help in activating my iphone 4 after update iOS 5.1. My phone was been neverlock and i used its before update without any activations. After update i can't turn on my phone!!! On the display have message "SIM not valid. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier's store to receive replacement SIM card". But i haven't any sim cards. Only the sim card from my operator  "Kyivstar" (Ukraine)... What should i do?!
    p.s.: sorry for my bad english, but i live in Ukraine, and we haven't autorized service center of Apple in our country. help me please.

    You have been using a phone that has been hacked to allow it to be used on your network.  Upgrading your phone's software has relocked your phone to the original carrier. 
    You will not be able to use your phone again unless the ORIGINAL carrier offers unlocking.  Many don't, and many who DO offer unlocking, will not unlock unless the phone has active service with the carrier in the appropriate country. 
    You will need to find out who the carrier your phone is locked to is, and see if that carrier unlocks the phone.  It is very likely you will need to buy a new phone.
