Problem switching devices

Hello guys, trying to switch config from a 8310 to a 8900 using desktop manager 5.0.0.11. It gave an error and finished. The problem is that it cleaned information from source device.
Do you know where is saved the temporary backup?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forums
Usually, a backup file is created in the My Documents folder with a .ipd file extension. If you can't find it there, search the computer hard drive.
Let us know how it goes.

DM Switch Device Wizard prompts in another language?. German maybe?.

I recently switched from a Palm Treo 700p to a red Blackberry Curve 8330. I installed the Desktop Manager using the User Tools CD and updated it to the most current version (4.7) without running into any problems. However, when I try to use the Switch Device Wizard to transfer my contacts and calendar to the Curve, the wizard dialog box appears in a language other than English with all options and buttons grayed out except Cancel. I've searched everywhere online, but I have not been able to find a similar occurrence or fix. Can anyone please help me with this issue?
BTW, here are some additional information about my devices and computer.
Palm Desktop Manager v 6.2.2
Palm HotSync v 7.0.2
Palm OS Garnet v 5.4.9
LAPTOP
Windows XP Pro SP3
Outlook not installed
Both the Treo and Curve are on the Sprint network.

Hi,
Visual Voicemail?
Vendors are coming out with it, Youmail has a an app for it.
Take a look on the web, I don't use it so I can't recommend.
Voice Recognition: Vlingo! Personal recommendation on this one! I ran it on my Curve and Storm!
The basic program is free, &17.99 for the plus version one time fee.

Activate or switch device issue

I purchased an Iphone 5 with my upgrade with the intent to turn around and sell it on ebay (same thing I did with my iphone 4 upgrade last time). I received the phone, brought it to the verizon store to have it activated and then get switched back to my Droid...all went well and I even called verizon later to confirm the iphone 5 had been activated on my account. Now my problem is if I go to "activate or switch device" I am still getting a "verify your new device" page with the iphone 5. Shouldn't this have gone away once my iphone 5 had been activated on my account?
With my previous upgrades, once I activated/deactivated the new phone and reactivated my old phone I was free to activate any phone I wished on that number. There are no issues with "activate or switch device" on the other 2 lines on my account, just the line I used to get the upgrade.
Any ideas?

Call customer service from a line NOT involved in the switch you want to do - 800-922-0204. Sometimes I've been able to switch devices on my own, but the last few times it's been glitchy, and I've had to call CS. To Verizon's credit, the CS reps have been very helpful and have managed to get the correct device(s) activated in relatively short order.
From the main menu, choose Option 4 (Other) and then say AGENT at the prompt - you should be connected to a live person pretty quickly.

Z10 switch devices fiasco

I've just spent 3 hours trying to get a replacement Z10 up and running (still not got all my settings or Apps sorted). I cracked the screen on my last Z10 and the insurance company sent out a replacement. I backed up everything through the Blackberry Link desktop software, so imagined it would be a simple matter to switch devices and have all my settings, data and apps transferred. Problems started with the fact that the "switch device" option in BB link needs you have your old device available when you try use this service. I had to give the courier my broken handset when he dropped of my replacement, so I didn't have it available. I imagine someone who has lost their phone or if it's completely unresponsive would also have the same problem. This is a really bad oversight on Blackberry's part!! Next I tried to use the back up I had saved from my broken phone. This wouldn't work at first because the "personal files" were not present on the new handset. I finally got that sorted, but then had to go through everything again manually to try get my phone even close to what it was like before. So now in my BB Link software I have two phones listed, but can't merge them (and I'm not going to delete the old one till I'm 100% sure I've got everything in place). Come on Blackberry, sort this out!! I'm a tech savvy guy and I found it excruciating trying to deal with all this. You had such an amazing opportunity with the launch of BB10 and you have totally messed it up. Your old operating system might of been dated, BUT at least it worked!! (I was using one of my old Blackberry's while I waited for the replacement). I really don't want to see the end of this company, but if they keep shooting themselves in the foot like this, I don't hold out much hope for them.

No network connection after switching devices? Please Help!

So yesterday I switched my Droid Eris to a used but in good condition Droid X on-line (using the activate/switch device). I can make calls and text on my "new" phone, but I can't access the Market to download apps or go on the web browser. It says that I have no Network connection. I went ahead and turned on my "old" phone (Eris) and even though I cannot make calls or texts, I can STILL access Facebook, Market etc....
What is the problem?

Yes, I'm sorry I didn't mention. I programmed the phone by calling *228 and selecting option 1. After no luck with internet access on my "new" phone I went ahead and turned both off overnight. Still no luck.
Any other suggestions.
The other phone should not function so there is something screwed up with the switch over. Call *611 and have customer service look into the problem. 800-922-0204 is the land line number for Verizon.
My guess is the data plan has to be switched over to the replacement device in order to use the net and Google Play Store.

Problems Switching from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S4

I switched from an iPhone to a Samsung. Why do people with iPhones continue to have problems texting me. They tried deleting my iMessage streams and re-entered my phone as a mobile. They still get error messages. It's been a week since I got the Samsung.
By the way, I have deactivated my iphone number on the Apple ID website.
ITH

Unfortunately I have turned off iMessage from my iPhone and have called in to deregister. It's been almost 24 hours and it's still not working correctly. The HUGE issue is that I've basically been told "it will eventually start working". Well, I didnt pay you have the money and tell you I'd send the rest when it started working. You are a huge company dealing with another huge company. I PAID THE MONEY AND YOU TOOK IT BUT THE PHONE IS NOT WORKING THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSED TO. If you cant make a device work, you should not be selling them with the assumption that you can use it when you pay right then. There are so many forums and threads about this problem but yet nobody mentioned it at the verizon store. I will not be a customer by this evening is this doesn't resolve. This is **** poor business and terrible communication about switching devices. The largest network is doing a great job of pushing me back to AT&T. Rediculous!!

Switching devices and Downgrading from Z10 OS10 to 9800 OS6

i recently upgraded my Blackberry Touch 9800 running OS6 to a Blackberry Z10 Running OS10
i am not to impressed with the battery life and features of the Z10. Now i need to downgrade i.e. switch devices back from Z10 to 9800.
The Z10 using Desktop Link and the 9800 uses Desktop Manager.
Trying to Switch device does not work.
Can anyone please advise on what to do?
Regards
J

BlackBerry doesn't think anyone will want to switch from the Z10 back to a BBOS device so they haven't built any type of device switch for that direction. Hopefully, as the poster before me stated, you have a backup from your previous device that you can restore to the 9800.
Note: Do NOT attempt to put the micro sim into the 9800 using any kind of sim adapter. I ruined my 9810 attempting to do that. The sim got stuck and wouldn't come out. It ripped out one of the sim card contacts. Just giving the word of caution.

Communication problems: A device attached to the system is not functioning.

Hi all,
I'm developing an applet and using the OMNIKEY 5321 CL reader for communication and testing. One of the requirements for our card is to read large binary data.
For this purpose i used extented lenght APDU to read the data from card.
When I tested it via JCOP simulation I was able to read up to 32767 bytes as described in specification. But problem occurs when I test it with reader, in this case I'm able to read max 298B in APDU response. When I send greater byte count than 298B i have got following error in JCShell plugin:
jcshell: requestSessionKey.jcsh[1]: Error code: -6 (Card terminal error)
jcshell: requestSessionKey.jcsh[1]: Communication problems: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Regarding the extend lengh APDU support it should by OK from the OMNIKEY. I'm using newest driver 1.2.9.2 for Win 7.
Here my configuration:
JCOP:JCOP 2.4.2r1
JAVA CARD: jc301
Global Platform: gp22
Can somebody help me? Any ideas?

If you want to use PC/SC directly, I have a simple Go program that reads an APDU file (just hex encoded APDU strings) and sends them to a smart card. You can give that a try if you like.
The code is at: https://bitbucket.org/safarmer/go-apdus
There is a Goclipse project as well as the source. You will need to install Go and run "go get github.com/ebfe/go.pcsclite/scard" to install the required PC/SC wrapper. Once you have done this you can run the program with -file <apth to text file>

Are they custom EQ settings in iTunes on the computer?
Per:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17383922#17383922
"Do the EQ settings from my iTunes library transfer to my iPhone when I sync it"
Yes.
" thus causing my iPhone to over process the data when I turn it's EQ on? "
No. If the EQ ison, the iPhone will use the EQ setting you assigned in iTunes. It will use only the preset EQ. If you have a custom setting or do not have an EQ setting, it will not be used and will use the setting on the iPhone.

How to use a USB-to-parallel adapter to communicate with my switch device?

My computer doesn't have a parallel port, so I must use the USB port and a USB-to-parallel adapter to communicate with my switch device. Unfortunately in WindowsXP printer configure that show USB001 Virtual printer for USB. How should I control my USB-to-Parallel converter to send the Pin1 and Pin3 high? How should I decide that I/O address in Labview (traditional LPT1 is 378AH) ?

Hi Kelvin,
I understand that you want to control pins on your serial port using LabVIEW. Since you are using Windows XP, only LabVIEW version 7.0 will be able to control the pins. The pins can be controlled by modifying the values of the access registers that windows associates with each pin. If you are using LabVIEW 7.0, then the VI's located on the Funtions >> Advanced >> Port I/O palette should help you assign values to the proper pins.

Can't get the Switch Device Wizard to work - HELP:

currently using version 4.3.0.17 of the Blackberry desktop manager and version 4.2 of the Palm desktop. When I try to use the Switch device wizard, I get to the screen where it asks me to select the software, either the Palm Treo or the Windows Mobile and I can't go any further. I can see the tick boxes but it won't let me select anything and the program doesn't do anything, i.e. no activity. Any suggestions? Has anyone actually gotten this to work? Thanks,
Pat

Activate or switch device online not working

Im trying to switch to a second device and the Activate or Switch Device feature of My Verizon is not and has not been working for the past two weeks. It gets to the second screen that list options for backing up data and contacts. After that the next window does not load.
I have used three different computers, different networks, Firefox, IE7-9, and Chrome. Also cleared cache and cookies. Please help, thanks.

Have you tried shutting off the active device first?????
Also have you tried shutting off the active device and calling *228 option 1 from the device you want to activate???
Is the 2nd device VZW branded and is the ESN clear?
Sure have. Both devices are Verizon branded with clean ESN numbers. *228 option 1 on the seconed unactivated device gives me "were sorry this device cannot be activated at this time." This is the last screen i see before i hit next. Next screen is blank and isnt even loading.

Switching devices

I am trying to switch between my sg6 and a droid ultra. It keeps telling me to switch the Sims card but the ultra does not have one. I can't figure out how to switch devices. Verizon Wireless Customer Support

Here it is. There is a slot. Generally you need a tool, but for the ultra it isn't needed.

Any alternative to Switch Device Wizard

I had to get a new Blackberry 8320 because the port for charging or backing up the phone died. All my backed up data is now trapped in a file on my PC and I can't used Switch Device Wizard because I can't get a connection to my old Blackberry. Anyone know of an alternative way to uploading the data into my new Blackberry?
