Please help with Blackberry Pearl 8120

I can't seem to get this phone to sync with my macbook. I have Mac OS X 10.5.1 and I just purchased my phone from t-mobile. I downloaded the Pocketmac and the driver update. I installed both according to the directions on another post (installing both and then restarting), but the syncing is still failing. What should I do? TIA for any help ya'll can give me. 
I forgot to mention that each time I try to sync, I get an error message at the end that says "skipping."

 Ahhh!!! Now it's saying that my brand new media card has errors on it and to use a "disk error checking utility on a computer" to correct them. I don't even know what that means, but how can my card have errors??? I've only taken 2 pictures and not downloaded anything but this software!!!!!

I went from the BB Pearl the iPhone.  I am using the Pearl again and am having the same issues I've always had with PocketMac.  It shows errors when trying to change settings and won't activate the sync button.  Then, it just syncs on its own and wipes my iCal and Address Book clean.  I've had to restore from Time Machine twice this week.  I am back to using Missing Sync.  Too bad they can't get this software to work consistently.

  • Blackberry pearl 8120 screen auto shut off

    Hi,
    The screen of my blackberry pearl 8120 shuts off automatically (almost once every day). When this happens, I have to press the start button and it would come back to the main screen with in few seconds and get registered with AT&T. I have updated the device software, removed the media card but still have the problem. Please let me know how to avoid this.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Go to options status. Type the letters test, there is no field for input.
    You will see a menu for a diagnostic test, select all options. The
    Report can be saved or emailed to your carrier.

  • Random restarts on Blackberry Pearl 8120

    Yes, I have a Blackberry Pearl 8120 that I got used for fifty dollars after my old Blackberry Pearl 8100 died. Anyway, to make a long story short it randomly resets itself. The screen goes black, and the LED in the right-hand corner goes red...and then it turns on a few seconds later with a white screen and an hourglass in the center. After a minute or two, it reboots the homescreen and operating system as if nothing happened.
    This happens at random intervals, and I do not know what is causing it. Sometimes it will happen several times in a row and other times it will not happen for several hours. It can happen at any time whether you are in the middle of a phone call or if you simply have it on a table and you are not even touching it.
    I have done the following steps to determine the problem:
    1. I have removed the media card to determine if that was the problem - No change
    2. I have removed the SIM card to determine if that was the problem - No change
    3. I have reinstalled the operating system - No change
    4. I have tried clearing the message log - No change
    5. I have made sure that the battery was not loose - No change
    6. I have switched batteries - No change
    7. I have tried wiping the memory - No change
    The only apps I have on it are the original ones that it came with. I do not know what else it could be as I have done all that my carrier suggested. I would rather not have to get a new phone as I like this phone and I do not need all of the extra stuff on it that newer models have. If anybody can help me with this issue, let me know.

    Hello Neurovore, 
    Welcome to the forums. 
    From the sounds of it you have done everything there is to do. One question, when you did the software reload did you restore a backup file? If the answer is yes the I would suggest doing the software reload again and this time do not restore the backup file and test to see if you have the same issue. If after doing the software reload you still have the same issue then I suspect that it is a hardware issue and you will need to contact your service provider to see if they have a repair center than can look at the device for you. 
    Hope this helps. Have a good day.

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

  • Please help with "You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I have seen other responses on this but am not a techie and would not know how to start with that solution.

    Please help with the message I am receving on startup ""You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I have read some of the replies in the Apple Support Communities, but as I am no techie, I would have no idea how I would implement that solution.
    Please help with what I need to type, how, where, etc.
    Many thanks
    AppleSueIn HunterCreek

    I am afraid there is no solution.
    PowerPC refers to the processing chip used by Apple before they transferred to Intel chips. They are very different, and applications written only for PPC Macs cannot work on a Mac running Lion.
    You could contact the developers to see if they have an updated version in the pipeline.

  • [ETL]Could you please help with a problem accessing UML stereotype attributes ?

    Hi all,
    Could you please help with a problem accessing UML stereotype attributes and their values ?
    Here is the description :
    -I created a UML model with Papyrus tool and I applied MARTE profile to this UML model.
    -Then, I applied <<PaStep>> stereotype to an AcceptEventAction ( which is one of the element that I created in this model ), and set the extOpDemand property of the stereotype to 2.7 with Papyrus.
    -Now In the ETL file, I can find the stereotype property of extOpDemand as follows :
    s.attribute.selectOne(a|a.name="extOpDemand") , where s is a variable of type Stereotype.
    -However I can't access the value 2.7 of the extOpDemand attribute of the <<PaStep>> Stereotype. How do I do that ?
    Please help
    Thank you

    Hi Dimitris,
    Thank you , a minimal example is provided now.
    Version of the Epsilon that I am using is : ( Epsilon Core 1.2.0.201408251031 org.eclipse.epsilon.core.feature.feature.group Eclipse.org)
    Instructions for reproducing the problem :
    1-Run the uml2etl.etl transformation with the supplied launch configuration.
    2-Open lqn.model.
    There are two folders inside MinimalExample folder, the one which is called MinimalExample has 4 files, model.uml , lqn.model, uml2lqn.etl and MinimalExampleTransformation.launch.
    The other folder which is LQN has four files. (.project),LQN.emf,LQN.ecore and untitled.model which is an example model conforming to the LQN metamodel to see how the model looks like.
    Thank you

    cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

    If you mean updae server
    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Otherwise what server are you talking about
