Media sync won't install

I have the BB Curve 8330 from Boost Mobile & I have routinely installed, deleted, & reinstalled the BB Desktop Software because I could never get the Media Sync to work. It wouldn't install. So finally I went online & downloaded the newest version of Media Sync & attempted to install it. However, I receieve this error message: An unsupported operating system has been detected. BlackBerry Media Sync setup wizard will now exit. Can anyone help me out in why this is happening? I would greatly appreciate it & thank everyone in advance.

Media Sync won't even install?

The post title says it all.
Media Sync won't even install on my computer. When I open the software after the install I get an quick error message stating that the software has a problem and will now close. That's it.
My computer is Windows xp pro with service pack 3 installed. It is up to date including the latest version of Itunes.
Blackberry Desktop Manager 4.7 is installed and I am experiencing no issues with that software whatsoever.
I'm puzzled.

download a new install file of the BlackBerry Media Sync on the blackberry.com website.

Media Sync Won't Work

I unplugged my phone while it was syncing with iTunes. Now when I choose Media Sync the phone won't stay in that mode. It will leave media sync mode after just 2 or 3 seconds. iTunes says that the phone needs to be reset, but it won't stay synced with the computer long enough to reset it.
WebOS Doctor says there's nothing wrong with my phone.
Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to get my phone back to syncing?
Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

Hello BryanJonz and welcome to the Palm forums.
HP/Palm and Apple have not come to an agreement to allow webOS devices like the Pre and Pixi to natively sync with iTunes. Several iTunes updates ago, Apple put code in that blocks all non-Apple iPhone/iPod/iPad devices from syncing natively with iTunes on a Mac or a Windows PC.
A popular alternative solution that will allow you to sync non-copy protected content with your Palm is DoubleTwist.

Error on Media Sync 3.0 Install - Unsupported Operating System

I am having problems installing the new version of media sync on my computer running Windows XP Pro SP3 (v.3311). After it unpacks the files and begins to run the installation wizard, I receive a message that says I am trying to install it on a computer w/ a unsupported operating system. Here is what I have done to try to fix the problem:
1) I have re-downloaded the installation file from Blackberry multiple times over a span of days
2) I have tried to download an install through the check for updates feature in my current version of media sync
3) I have tried uninstalling media sync and rebooting my computer and then trying to install the new version
4) I saw in one post in another Blackberry forum that you need to be on the highest release of v. 2. I downloaded as instructed and when trying to install it I also get the unsupported operating system message
I have run out of attempts I can think of, and have searched Blackberry, Crackberry, and Google for a solution.
Has anyone figured out anything yet on this one?
P.S. -- I know that some have successfully installed the new Media Sync on their computers running XP w/ SP3. So there is not need to reply letting me know you did not have a problem installing it.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

Your Microsoft Windows Xp SP3 version value in the registry may be inconsistent or missing ...
- Please navigate to the following tree in the registry editor and paste the value for "CSDVersion"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion
The regkey can be accessed by searching for 'CSDVersion' in the registry editor or you could follow the steps below.
(1) Click 'Start' > choose 'Run'
(2) type 'regedit' in the run window and click 'ok'. This will open the registry editor
(3) Navigate the tree to 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion'
(4) look in the left side pane and locate 'CSDVersion' and its value.
And how did your upgrade to SP3 happen? Did it come preinstalled on your machine or have you upgraded it by downloading upgrades from the internet.

Hi there!
FYI -- you've posted this to the 9500 Storm forum...not usually the place for assistance with a Curve. But, don't double-post, we will have this moved momentarily to the correct place:

Media Sync won't recognize iTunes

I have my new Storm, BB Desktop Mgr v4.7 and Media Sync 2.0.0.20. I have iTunes 8.0 loaded on my Parallels running MacBook Pro on both the Mac Side and the PC side and Media Sync is telling me I have to first load iTunes. It also will not allow me to select "options". Any ideas?
Also, will the Storm recognize the iTunes music or only what can be converted to MP3?
Thanx!

Blackberry Media Sync crashes after install

Hi,
I'm runningv4.5.0.110 (Platform 2.7.0.90) on my 8310.
My Desktop Manager is v4.6.0.13 (Jun 20, 2008)
After downloadiung and installing Music Sync, it crashes everytime I try to run is with the typical Windows XP dialouge asking if I want to send this info to Microsoft.
Below is the Application Log entry generated at the time of failure.
Even if I can't make it work, I need to uninstall it to get the vanilla media manager to work.
Help!

Verizon Media Manager won't install - How do I get photos from my phone memory to my PC?

I'm getting frustrated with my new Droid, HTC Incredible. The salesman said I could just plug in the USB and transfer my photos to and from my computer, that the phone would look just like an external hard drive. False...
I plug in the USB and get an option to open the folders or to install drivers. If I chose to open the folders, I see three external drives - one with an autorun.inf file and a few other files. If I click on the other two drives, I get a message telling me to install a disk in the drive.
If I click, "Install Drivers" I am taken to the VerizonWireless website and instructed to install Verizon Media Manager. Okay, so I try to do that, on my Windows 64 bit OS, and get a message that says,
"This Application does not support 64 bit operating systems - operation aborted" (or something like that).
So now what?

I apologize you are having problems connecting your device with your PC.

Media Explorer won't install on Vi

I have the Zen 6GB, and when I try and install the software on my Vista machine, I get several "Microsoft Register Server has stopped responding" errors popping up on the screen.
The installation completes, but the link for the software on my desktop is a blank icon, and the program won't run....
I have a dual boot system, so I'm able to use the explorer when I'm in XP, but has anyone else had this issue? I've tried using the disk that came with the player, and also the latest version from the website... same issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's the same for me.
And my Zen often froze when I synchronize with Windows Media player.
A new firmware will be needed fast, because IT'S A HELL using a Zen with Vista.

Creative Media Source won't install

I just bought a Zen Microphoto and I was anxious to upload my songs on the forementioned player. However as I tried to install Creative MediaSource which I downloaded from this very site, I encountered a strange problem.
I clicked on the setup and my PC proceeded to extract the files, and when the setup screen loads up, there's a message saying "Looking for previously installed components" and there are two setup screens minimized to my taskbar (CMS web installer and Creative Media Source - Install Shield Wizard) Whenever I click either of them nothing will happen. I'm pretty confused about this.
I'm sure it's not my hardware because my PC is up to date and I never had problems of the likes. I browsed the forums for an answer and I've heard of a software conflict with quicktime, I followed the advices with no results. I'm pretty desperate right now and I can't wait to use my Zen MicroPhoto. Did anyone encounter a problem similar to this?

Hi MusicoftheNight-
I had a similar issue when downloading the PlayForSure software for my Zen Touch. What I ended up doing was something I found in another thread. Download the installer, then use Winzip or Winrar and make an archi've of it. Unzip or Unrar it to another folder and then go into each folder and run the setup icons individually.
This is the only thing that worked for me.
When I needed to update just Mediasource I installed it in safe mode.
My computer is up to date and everything as well but this is the only thing that worked. Good luck!

Phone Companion will Install, Media Go Won't Install

Hi,
I downloaded Phone companion from the internet so i could put some music on my Xperia Z. It will install correctley and load, but then whenever i try and load Media Go from it, it trys intalling it and just freezes and never does anything.
I then tried downloading Media Go straight from the Sony Website and it always comes up saying "a programme is already install/uninstalling, please finish this before trying to install". Theres no programme already trying to install/uninstall so i dont understand whats wrong.
Ive also uninstalled Phone Companion and tried installing Media Go then, but still the same problem. And ive tried running as an "Administator" and in "Compaitbility Mode".
Could please someone help me
Thanks

Just to clarify, have you tried rebooting the PC then installing MediaGo separately?

Media Manager won't install

I have an 8220. I am trying to manage the pictures on my device. Apparently I did not install Media Manager when I first installed the desktop software as it is grayed out. I tried to "modify" my installation but it looks as though it is already installed.
I am afraid to completely uninstall for fear of losing something like installed games.
What am I missing?

So when you went to Modify the installation, was the Media Manager set to "Run all from my computer"? Was the version of the Desktop Manager you downloaded one that came with the Media Manager?
Does the 8220 have a trackball in the middle of it? If so then you do not need to use the Media Manager to transfer files to/from the BlackBerry. Check out this KB article that explains about Mass Storage Mode. This is how I transfer files to/from my device.

Are you having problems syncing with Pocketmac, Missing Sync or Media Sync? Here's what I did...

Just throwing this out there as a solution that worked for my situation. It may not work for everyone's needs.
After NUMEROUS emails back and forth with Pocketmac support I was finally told that Pocketmac will not work if Media Sync is also installed. It causes the "Error 1 Skipping" problem due to a USB driver conflict. So I tried Missing Sync's free trial. No good. It would not sync either, so paying money for the non trial version wasn't going to happen.
So, I ended up keeping Media Sync to keep my iTunes library synced and I started to use a wonderful little free app called "Google Sync". It works beautifully for my needs. It runs in the background (with no negative effect to the BB's performance or battery life) and automatically syncs your gmail contacts and google calendar to your BB device. If you change something on either the BB itself or online, google sync catches it and updates the other accordingly.
So if your sick and tired of messing around with Pocketmac and Missing Sync, give Google Sync a try. I love it!

it was only burning at 4x even though 47x was requested.
That's a issue discussed in the past.
It turns out that 8X DVD burning means about 47X CD burning - you were requesting 8X DVD but only got 4X DVD burning.
I haven't seen it discussed anymore so maybe Apple got around to eliminating that 'quirk' in terminology.
I suspect some of the early 8x DVD burners didn't perform as advertised. I'm glad your new 16X burner is working for you.
