Media Manager keeps installing....

I installed BDM v.5 with Media Manager. When it was done, I restarted the PC as I was directed. It came back up fine so I thought everything was working. However, every now and then Media Manager goes through the installation process when I start the PC up. Anyone else experience this? What are apps are out there that allow you to send files to the phone (Storm)?

Hi there!
For your second question (apps to send to your Storm)...there's no need for anything else. Your Storm, properly configured, should appear as 2 USB drives in your Windows system. Simply move files to/from just like you would any other drive on your PC.

Or, email things to your BB...then save the attachment to the BB.
Or use BT file transfers.
For your first question -- that's really odd. Are you positive it's Media Manager attempting to install again? Or is it some VCast thing or something? Regardless, what you might try is a clean uninstall:

Followed by a fresh download of DTM:

Followed by a fresh download (to your PC) of your device OS Package:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
Followed by installing DTM to your PC and then the device OS package (also to the PC).
Failing that, you might try a version of DTM without Media Manager. I used to run with that and it was cleaner and faster...but recently I learned that not all .avi's are created equal and I needed Media Manager to transcode them for my BB to be able to play some of them properly.
Good luck and let us know!

Roxio Media Manager keeps re-installing itself

The Roxio Media Manager on my PC keeps trying to reinstall itself. In the past I would leave the Blackberry software CD in the drive and it would take care of it (removing the CD from the drive brought back the error). I just updated to BB software version 4.5 and I am now getting the Roxio Media Manager installer window constantly, even with the CD present.
It is looking for the Roxio Media Manager.msi file which is on the CD.
I cancel and the window pops right back up.
I tried uninstalling the Media Manager but I can't do it because this installer process always seems to be running in the background and cannot be killed.
Any advice on how to resolve this??

Media Manager not installing for latest Apple Mac version

Verizon Media Manager is not installing correctly on my macbook.
My apple OS version is 10.6.2. The requirements for Verizon Media Manager is OS 1O.4 - 10.5.7. http://www36.verizon.com/fiostv/web/UnProtected/MediaManager.aspx
Help. How can we get Verizon to update their media manager software to support the latest OS version?

shocklizzard,
I'm sorry that there was previously no support for Snow Leopard. However, the latest version of MM for Mac (v1.1) includes support for that OS.
Make sure you uninstall the previous version (if you haven't already) first.
Keep us posted with your progress!!!

Roxio Media Manager keeps trying to load

Everytime I log on to my computer I get a pop up window that says, Please wait while Windows configures Roxio Media Manager. Then it times out and instructs me to install an installation disk. If I try to close the window it keeps coming back. I found a link to a possible fix by downloading a Windows installer cleanup utility but when I went to the Microsoft site there was instructions not to use that if running Office 2007 products. I have Outlook 2007. Any help you could give me with this very annoying problem would be very much appreciated.

Cannot launch V cast Media Manager after install

Windows XP, SP3
Just installed the program (and uninstalled, and reinstalled 3x's with and w/o security programs enabled). Upon the finish of the install is a "Launch" button. When clicked, the program launches, a tutorial screen pops up, and freezes every time. I've tried restarting the computer and then restarting the program with no success.
My husband has installed it successfully on our Mac OS 10.6.6 and Windows 7 systems.

Just joined up. Having the same problem. Was on the phone with 3 different Ver. techs for 4 hrs. before one asked me to check the FAQS, which states Verizon V-Cast is down. They didn't wven see it! Been over 12 hours and STILL DOESN"T WORK! I'm just trying to download pics from my old (broken lv11000 env-touch) to the warranty replacement without having to buy the $card. All the techs said I should be able to download without the crd if their system was up. Any suggestions or experience out there??

Roxio Media Manager Install Problem

I get the following error message when I try to run Roxio Media Manager from the Desktop Software:
"MediaManager9Module has stopped working correctly.  A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you when a solution is available."
I have done a lot of reading about this problem and most of the time users just tell the poster to use their Blackberry as a mass storage device. If they do that they won't need Roxio Media Manager. I want to use the Roxio because I have a lot of pictures and it's easier to upload them to the blackberry using Roxio - it utilizes a split screen with your computer pictures on top and your blackberry folders on the bottom... then as you browse through your pictures you just say "Copy down" and the picture goes to whatever folder you specify on the Blackberry. I just got a 4GB stick to hold all my photos so believe me the Roxio technique is far faster for me. I have successfully installed Roxio on my work computer a Dell XPS - it was a trial as well. I had to uninstall everything and completely remove all "Roxio" files including the registry. This did not work for the Acer though which is my home computer.  Right now the Acer has 4.5 installed (Roxio Media Manager did install) but when I try to click to access Roxio I get the above mentioned error message.
There are obviously a lot of people out there with this problem and no answer from Roxio or Blackberry (I called Blackberry who passed me off to Roxio who wanted me to PAY.) I also tried contacting Roxio via email from their Roxio website - they said contact Blackberry... thus I get the runaround. I just got this Blackberry (it cost me $432.) you would think something that expensive would come with software that... I don't know, works. And if i didn't they would offer some kind of tech help here.  Totally pathetic.
Hoping somebody has some insight....

Uninstalling and deleting all folders/files and registry entries named, RIM, Research in Motion, Roxio and Sonic worked to get Roxio Media Manager successfully installed and running on my Dell. I had some “trial” version of Roxio on my computer that came with it when I bought it and when it expired it created problems when installing Roxio Medica manager.
That was not the problem and not the solution to get Roxio Media Manager installed and running on my Acer. I tried the above, but I kept getting error messages after restart upon installing Desktop Manager due to some Roxio problem (I just didn’t know what.) I would also get error messages when I tried to access Roxio from the Desktop Manager. When I installed Desktop Manager on the Dell I used “Run as administrator” for the install but I do not have to right click and hit “Run as Administrator” every time I launch that program on the Dell to get any feature of it to run correctly including Roxio. I do for the Acer – that was the problem… but it took some tweaking to get that to happen. When I right click and hit “Run as Administrator” on the Acer the Desktop Manager would launch and it was able to read my blackberry when I plugged it in off the main menu. But when I went to any other feature off the main menu, like Sync or Roxio, it would not read the Blackberry – in the top left corner of the program it went from “Connected” to “Disconnected.” It also crashed the program several times and I had to bring up the Task Manager to quit the program because it had become “non-responsive.” The only part of the Desktop manager (after trying repeatedly) that was able to still read the blackberry when I selected “Run as Administrator” was the “Add/Remove Applications” feature. After it starting “seeing” the Blackberry from the Applications part the program I was able to go into Sync, and Roxio with it still able to “see” the Blackberry. Then I was able to successfully run the Roxio part of the desktop manager.  Odd I know…
Both the Dell and the Acer run Vista Home Premium. There were 2 separate problems causing Roxio to not install or run correctly. Both problems should have been addressed by Blackberry or Roxio. As I mentioned, I just bought this Blackberry and it cost me $432 – I am still somewhat in shock that a product that expensive comes with software that is literally up to the user to figure out how to run. That there is no way to get Roxio or Blackberry to respond themselves with a fix for this common problem is unbelievable. That we the user have to spend hour after hour troubleshooting when we should be enjoying our new blackberry is pathetic. I feel like the company just said, “Here, you figure it out.” Nice, huh?
The Desktop Manager (including all its features) should be available to all Blackberry users… then each individual can make a knowledgeable decision as to which program, either Desktop Manager or using “Mass Storage Device” is the easiest or more efficient for them.
Hope this helps… just trying to pass along what worked for me…

anywhere in the DOC, if it tells you to delete research in motion, also delete roxio if you see it.
then you can go back to MSCONFIG and put your startup and services back to the way they were
then get the latest desktop manager 5.0, if you dont plan on using media manager, dont install it, its a resource hog

Media Manager does not appear on my second stb

I downloaded Verizon Media Manager and installed it without problems. When I checked my HD stb the program is listed and I could use it. I do not have any kind of recorder on the network. When I check my non HD stb the VMM does not appear. This is the unit I want to use as it will allow me to play music through the home theater sound system.
So, am I limited because I do not have a recorder or does the feature not work on non HD stb? If this is the case, I might as well delete the program from my PC.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi. I apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately at this time, the standard def STBs do not work with Media Manager. It doesn't have to be a DVR, but the stb has to be an HD box. If you do not wish to upgrade the STD box at this time and depending on your setup, you can always swap the STBs and move the media manager functionality to where you want it.

Media Manager/Internet Media

I am unable to use any of the Internet Media video options. Youtube, dailymotion. etc.. all do the same thing. Either I get the red hand saying "unable to play video" or the video plays and always stops with a error at approx. 32 seconds. I have tried all I could to troubleshooting and resolve. I have tried 3 different hardwired computers with each getting Verizon Media Manager re-installed. I have the same exact issue on all 3 of my TV's. I have reset the router and confirmed all RF and MOCA rates are all perfect. 2 xp's and I vista. All 3 are strong running computers giving me the same result. Any ideas?

Photoshop 6 (Subscription, standard ed) download problem. Keeps installing Ps 6 extended trial.

Hello all
Yesterday I purchased a subscription (year long plan) to photoshop 6. Evereything seemed to get fine. I got the email with confirmation and download instruction. Followed the instructions, but the adobe app manager keeps installing (tried three times now) trial version of the photoshop 6 extended. I have been going trough the discussions over and over again trying to find a fix but haven't found one.

OK, FINALLY found a solution. And I'm sure this concerns everybody in the the non english areas so spread the word. When you open the adobe application manager, before installing anything check your presets (upper left corner of the adobe app window, arrow next to your adobe ID) to make sure that the preset language is the same as the one in the product you ordered/subscribed to.
In my case, when I subscribed to photoshop I selected the english version. But once I started installing the software the app manager had automatically set the language as finnish so I was installing a product I wasn't subscribed to and therefore it installs the trial version of the ps extended instead.

Missing Media Manager after 4.3 Upgrade

I had Desktop Manager 4.2 SP2 installed on my laptop, and Media Manager was installed and working. I upgraded to Desktop Manager 4.3 and now Media Manager is not there. I checked another PC that has Desktop 4.2 SP2, with Media Manager and it still works for my device. Have I done something wrong? I have a BB 8700c through AT&T. I am running Windows XP. I have already tried a Repair and a Reinstall.
Thanks

Well, that certinaly should have it. It may be an older install was corrupt and hasn't uninstalled properly. This document references an older version of the Desktop Manager, however its steps are still relevant when removing files:

Roxio Media Manager - It keeps trying to install itself

Hi Everyone,
Roxio Media Manager continuosly tries to install itself and it won't go away. I tried to uninstall it but a window pops up that states Windows Installer is running. I tried to force quit the installer and/or Roxio, but I don't see anything in the processes panel.
I tried running registry cleaners, tried an aftermarket uninstaller program... nothing has worked. What's worse, the Windows Installer window keeps popping up and interrupts everything I'm trying to do on the computer. I can't even let it go in the background and ignore it.
Not only that, but it is also bogging down the processor immensly.
Everywhere I look on the internet, people keep suggesting a windows clean up utility from the Microsoft site, but that download is no longer available (apparently it too was causing problems)
The only other suggestion was http://forums.techarena.in/windows-xp-support/898890.htm and recommended that I download & reinstall "Desktop Manager 5.0.1 B73 Multilanguage with Media Manager", but that file is obsolete now and is no longer on the RIM site.
I'm at a total loss for what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Rob

Adobe application manager keeps opening and will not allow me to install creative cloud

Adobe application manager keeps opening and will not allow me to install creative cloud. I am trying to sync fonts and the install is not working. The adobe application manager will open on its own and not allow the creative cloud app to install. I do have other creative cloud products installed however the creative cloud installer icon is not appearing in my toolbar nor does creative cloud show up as an app. I get an error message that I must have creative cloud installed when I try to sync fonts via the type kit to photoshop.

Hello ducky,
as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
Sometimes the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
If necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.
