Need to switch devide from BB9000 to Z10 but BB Link does not access my new Z10

I've tried all the suggestions in previous posts (i.e. turning on airplan mode, turning off wi-fi network, turning off Windows firewall an Bitdefender firewall too, calling Vodafone for technical support, disinstalling BB Link and downloading it again) but nothing happens: when I try to switch devices through BB Link, I only get as far as step 5/8: at that point BB sees my Z10 but when I click on the icon, I keep getting the same message: " Cannot access device" (in Italian it reads "impossibile effettuare la connessione al dispositivo").
By the way, Vodafone suggested writing for technical support through BB website but I can't find an email address for support anywhere in the site.
It's so frustrating!
Any new suggestion please?

My best suggestion is to do what I did, and send the thing back. Blackberry aren't going to care that one user couldn't make it work, but they will once, in your case, Vodafone start sending hundreds of them back.
My carrier, T-Mobile, when I spoke to them regarding my initial frustrations, seemed strangely unsurprised at my disappointment, and accepted the Z10 back without a single word of discussion.
This is the phone that they'd wanted to charge me for when it was released, but only a few weeks later gave me for free. I think I know why, now...

  • TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I could not find an option to "report a problem".
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • I want to get good wifi in my house . I currently have a time warner modem/router separate from my phone modem but my upstairs does not get good reception. What would be the best way to get the best wifi if I started from scratch

    I have a combination modem/router from time warner that is separate from my phone line but I get bad reception on my apple tv an ipads upstairs in my house. I would like to fix this and want to know the best way to go about it . Whether getting two modems and routers or just one base station. Please help

    It is possible to extend a WiFI network using Apple's Airport Express, Airport Extreme Base Station, or even a Time Capsule. However  the router that is creating the network (the one you have downstairs) must be configurable to permit another WiFi device to extend the network. All Apple WiFi routers can be configured that way, but there are many third party WiFi routers that cannot. The two routers can be connected wirlessly or by ethernet. From your description I suspect ethernet would be prefereable if yoiu had a good way of routing the cable.

  • The email for my apple id is from old job and i need to switch it to my personal email but there is already an old account under my personal email address

    The email for my apple id is from old job and i need to switch it to my personal email but there is already an old account under my personal email address.  How do I delete the account using my personal email so that I can use it for my current account?

    You can't delete an account, you will need to replace the email address on the old account first e.g.  by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on it on iOS device and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http:// appleid.apple.com

  • Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click  on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

    Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
    In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
    After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
    If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
    Reboot and try again.
    If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
    Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
    Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
    Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. Have an old FireWire but it does not fit the new iMac

    I am trying to transfer photos, music, etc from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. The Power Mac is too old for the migration assistant to help. I have an old Firewire but it does not fit the new iMac. Any suggestions? If a Firewire is the best option which one do I need? Thanks.

    You need a Firewire 800 to 400 adapter or cable or a external USB 2/3 drive (self powered) it can default to the old USB the G5 uses 1 or 2.
    Format the drive info here.

  • Recently, I can't get any sound from my game applications.  Sound works fine with video, streaming, etc, but not my game applications.  I've tried powering down and re-booting, but the sound does not return.  Can anyone help me?

    Recently, I can't get any sound from my game applications.  Sound works fine with video, streaming, etc, but not my game applications.  I've tried powering down and re-booting, but the sound does not return.  Can anyone help me?

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • HT2128 I need to open a firmware update to my rinter and Photoshop 'does not recognize this firle' is what I get. what can I do?  J. dunn

    I need to download some firware  update from the internet.  Photoshop says it does not recognize this file and will not open it.  what should I do??? thanks, Judi

    I downloaded a Lexmark firmware update file for a color laser printer, just to see what it contained.
    It downloaded as a .zip file.
    I double-clicked the .zip file to un-zip it. (Sorry, I'm not sure which program actually did the unzipping.)
    Once unzipped, it contained several files for multiple operating systems, including Windows and OS X.
    Double-clicking on the PrinterFileLoader.dmg should start the installation on your Mac.
    Opening the README Updating firmware.pdf file and selecting the Mac section revealed:
    *There were additional images on this page that I couldn't capture with a screenshot.
    Your firmware update README file should contain similar information.

  • BB Link on my Windows 8 PC does not see media on Z10

    I am able to connect my Z10 to BB Link on my Window's 8 PC.  The phone’s status shows up as Connected. I can performs a device backup successfully. Yet Link does not see any of the pictures or video’s on the phones internal memory or the media card. I cannot transfer media from the PC to the phone either.
    I know that the problem is not with my phone because I can connect to BB Link on my Window’s 7 pc and see and transfer media successfully.
    I have tried disabling the firewall, uninstalling and reinstalling BB Link to no avail.

  • I lost my images from my hard drive and now I can not access them in Lightroom. What can I do?

    I lost my images from my hard drive and now I can not access them in Lightroom. What can I do?

    Your images are truly no longer present on the hard drive(s)? Have you had your operating system do a search for them?
    If such a search fails to find them, here's what I would do, in order
    Look in the trash can/recycle bin
    Restore from backups
    If you don't have backups ... well, why not? ... find a program on the internet called an "undelete utility" (free versons are available) and then download and install it and run it. If you are going to do this, then do not perform any other tasks on your computer except find the program, download it (if possible to a different drive than the photos were stored on), install it (if possible to a different drive than the photos were stored on), and run it. In the future, you will need to commit to making regular backups of your photos and of your Lightroom catalog file, no excuses.
    If that doesn't work, but the thumbnails still appear in Lightroom, you can probably recover the thumbnails from Lightroom via a plug-in, but these would be low-resolution versions of your photos, if you really need instructions on this step, write back
