Recovering a possibly corrupted .bbb file

Hi All,
Hopefully someone can assist me with this problem.
I'm using DM 7.0.0.59 and created a backup of my BB9700 with OS 6 2921. When I tried to restore from backup, it is saying that "The selected backup file might be corrupted". Is there a way of recovering or fixing this issue?
Thansk.

Can you tell us more about what happened during the process of updating? Did you get any errors? There are 3rd party apps out there that can still read corrupted BBB backups, but it might encounter difficulty at some point due to the fact that the backup is corrupted. Try using the free version of Blackberry Backup Extractor and see if the software  can read your backup, it should be possible and you should be able to extract your data inside.

  • Recover lost deleted corrupted music files tracks from iTunes match icloud

    Just spent an hour on Apple's tech suypport line, all to figure out how to recover lost/deleted/corrupted music files/tracks from iCloud / iTunes Match.  Here's how to do it:
    ASSUMPTIONS:  You're in iTunes on your computer, logged into your iCloud account.
    Within iTunes, in the left-hand pane, select your Music library.  Alll your tracks should appear in the right-hand pane.   Those that are missing from your disk should be marked with an asterisk icon to the left of the track.    Do the following...
    ...select all the missing/lost/deleted tracks (using the option button), and hit the delete button.
    NOTE:  when the delete dialog box comes up, make sure you do ***NOT*** click the "Delete from iCloud" selection!!!
    ...once deleted, select all the same tracks again, then hit the right mouse button, then select "Download".
    All the tracks should start downloading, one by one, from iCloud.
    NOTE:  If I were you, I'd perform this operation on discrete chunks (no more than 500 at a time), just to be safe.
    Good luck!

    You can also recover the missing tracks from the backup you are keeping on an external HDD. You are backing up, aren't you?

  • Try to open a possible corrupted PPT file

    Does Microsoft have any tool to repair a corrupted PPT file?  Do I have to use the 3rd party recover tool to fix the problem?
    I tried to insert a slide from PPT file but did not find that option available when I attempted to open the corrupted PPT file. 
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Which Office version did you use?  Is it a password-protected file? Was the file sent to you as an e-mail attachment?
    If your file is truly corrupt, there are a number of things you can try to recover it.
    Use Slides from Files on the Insert menu.
    Locate a TMP file.
    Open the presentation in Microsoft Office Word.
    Move the file to a different place.
    Open the file in a different way.
    Use Safe Mode.
    Use Damaged Presentations Troubleshooters.
    Try a third-party recovery tool.

  • How to recover from a corrupted VHD file?

    There is a tool that can recover logical problems in the VHD structure?
    A friend called me and told me that his VS R2 Enterprise with 4 VMs suffered a power falure and after that, one of the VMs does not startup anymore. The erros is the same as using VHDMOUNT, something similar: "VHD file could not be mounted"
    There is a CHKDSK for VHD files?
    How to "rebuild" a corrupetd VHD file? How to analyze logical structure of a offline VHD file?

    I also would like to suggest another application which I have used recently for doing VHD recovery. Last, I lost almost everything on my lappy due to hard drive crash
    issue. I backup my data in .vhd file but due to somehow the backup file unable to show me any data. Finally, I tried Hyper-V data recovery tool that had been recommended by my friend. The tool have easy-to-operate GUI techniques so that even a novice use can
    also run this application for repairing VHD file corruption or data inaccessible problem without any hassle. It also recovered those files which I had deleted earlier.
    I got this superb tool over here:

  • Possible corrupt music file on back up disc - can't restore iTunes library!

    Sold old laptop last week in prep for getting new PC, backed up iTunes library onto DVD disc (whole library went on 4.7GB disc with no problems) - got new PC yesterday, downloaded iTunes 9, inserted back up disc, tried to restore but keeps getting stuck on one song and going no further. Can anyone help with any other suggestions because I'm going nuts! Can't update my iPhone as there's nothing in iTunes to update it with!

    Yes, the relative location is the same, the user account has the same short and long lame as before.
    I did try to use the preferences to point to the backed up itunes folder. Once when it was on the eHD and once when I put it in the music folder. Unfortunatley no luck.
    I will try your idea about using "Consolidate Library"
    One other interesting thing I tried a few days ago was to follow the procedure outlined in the apple support section about restoring the library. It has you move the libray xml file to the desk top, trashing one of the other files (I forgot which) and then choosing the xml file placed on the desk top upon starting itunes. I thought it was kind of odd to select the very xml file I was having trouble with so I chose the backed up xml file. It put all of the playlist folders back in duplicate, but the library was still empty (probably becuase the xml file is just a reference file and I hadn't loaded any actual music files) If the consolidate doesn't work, mabye I'll try that again, but also put the folder with the actual files on the computer as well
    I'll let you know how "Consolidate" works, thanks for your suggestions!

  • Is it possible to move files from corrupted sectors hard drive to a replacement one?

    My 2011 macbook pro was recently diagnosed with bad sectors. I am looking to get a replacement hard drive, probably a  750 or 1 tb Seagate SATA. Do you think that is sufficient? I do not play games or do anything memory intensive. The most I do is watch a lot of movies.
    Also, is it possible to move files from a corrupted sectors hard drive to the replacement? If so, how would I go about doing this?
    Also, for the operating system, it is probably wrong, and can't check since my Mac pro won't get past half way on the start up loading screen.

    Try a sector copy with CCC and enable using checksum file copy to insure integrity.
    Then Data Rescue 4 - try demo before buying
    Do a full erase of a drive before reusing.
    Invest in SoftRAID.com going forward as it "looks for" weak sectors, alerts.
    Also Google around but SMART Utility has been mentioned as an excellent program/utility -
    When a drive has used any of its spare blocks from when it ships is #1 indicator of being time to replace.
    And of course always have multiple backup sets, methods and know how to use and restore from. Even do a practice set. I would not use just TimeMachine for instance.
    And for some, only a mirror array (minimum two but really consider three drive mirror, with stripe reads to improve performance) can allow pulling one, add a new member and still have a two drive mirror.
    Cloud storage for backup. With OneDrive and Facebook backing up all the photos on all your devices, Macs and PCs as well as tablets and phones, you can have 100-200GB quite easily. And there is Google Drive and Amazon as well as others.
    A new data drive, a drive to do all  the recovery of files that were on the failed drive(s), and probably a clean system drive and use that as you recover and build your system back up.

  • DESPERATE: need to recover corrupted Word file

    Hi Everyone,
    I hope someone out there can help me recover a corrupted Word file. My Macbook froze while I working on an important document. I was forced to restart it but when I tried to reopen the file I had been working on, I got a message that "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened" I have surfed the web for solutions and some suggested opening and repairing the file under PC versions of Word. I've done that, but when the file opens, the entire document is filled with weird symbols and characters. Please tell that I haven't lost everything
    Thanks for any leads for solving this or on any recovery softwares that might provide some partial recovery of the data.

    Well it's hard to say if recovery of your file is possible, but you can check if you have selected the Save AutoRecover information every x minutes check box in your MS Office settings.
    If yes just check AutoRecover file location box in MS Office settings.
    If not and you don't have backup, your file is lost i think.
    Regards

  • Error -32810 occurred at The FieldPoint server initialization failed. Possible causes: 1. Missing or corrupt configuration file; 2. Failed to create callbacks. : FP Open.vi

    I have two cFP-2120 RT controller. They both have NI-Serial RT2.5.6, DataSocket for LV RT4.2, NI-VISA 3.6, FP Drivers 5.1.0, FP VI Manager 3.1.0 LV RT 7.1.1 installed. But one same vi can run on one controller but not another.
    the error message got when it runs on another controller is "Error -32810 occurred at  The FieldPoint server initialization failed. Possible causes: 1. Missing or corrupt configuration file; 2. Failed to create callbacks. : FP Open.vi"
    I wonder by what it is caused?
    Thanks

    Hi Matthew,
    As mentioned previously, this KnowledgeBase article may be of some help. Also, if your code is being run on an embedded controller and then a network controller (not embedded), you will need to run the program differently. On the embedded controller, you should deploy your VI in a Project Explorer or programmatically (as described here.) However, you do not need to deploy the program to a network controller, but simply run the VI.
    I would also suggest creating a new .IAK file. Do you still see the same error? Also, double-check that the software installed on the controller matches the software installed on the host PC. If you have any file paths associated with one FieldPoint controller, ensure that you are changing them to match the second controller.
    Please keep us posted on your troubleshooting steps. Have a great day!

  • Backup file corrupted- How do I recover or locate older backup files?

    I synced my original iPhone (with 2.0 software) a few times last night to make sure everything I had on the iPhone was synced to my computer before I restored it, and sold it on ebay. It backed up the iPhone a few times and always wanted to restore it everytime. Well the last time I attempted to sync the iPhone I interrupted the backup process by 'x-ing' out of it during the sync. Now I am trying to get my 3G iPhone synced with the backup of my original iPhone and it is saying that the file is corrupt. Obviously this is because I interrupted the backup process.
    So my question is: Is there a way for me to locate an older backup file that may only be an hour older than the corrupt file?
    In the preference settings in iTunes I can see the backup files for my phone, but it only lists one, which is the corrupt one. And I searched the finder for recent files, hoping I could find the corrupt file, locate the folder its in and there find older non-corrupt files. Alas, no luck.
    I've already restored the original iPhone so the info is gone from that phone. Is there any hope of finding a non-corrupt backup file? Please help.

    You can find your backup file here:
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    It seems that iTunes lists all of the ones that are in that folder.
    I just lost my backup, too. More than a year's worth of settings. I can't find any way of "fixing" the corrupt backup. It seems that photos are gone forever, if they weren't imported into iPhoto, but I did find this software to recover notes, sms, and call logs:

    The developer seems like kind of a passive aggressive borderline extortionist, but the software seems to work.

  • Is it possible to view .bbb files in a mac? how? I am transferring my bberry contacts onto my macbook pro, but cannot open the .bbb files...

    Is it possible to view .bbb files in a mac? how? I am transferring my bberry contacts onto my macbook pro, but cannot open the .bbb files...

    Well, if simply double-clicking the .bbb file doesn't work, first try dragging the file onto the BBDM icon (either in the Dock, on the desktop or in the Applications folder or wherever it's stored). That tells Finder to open it with that application.
    Otherwise, right-click on the file and choose the Open With option. If BBDM is not the default, select Get Info and use the Open with box from there to select it (if it's not in the list, choose 'other' and navigate to it), then click the 'change all' button.

    Hi rockjedi,
    In my opinion you should give us a little bit more details about your notebook and operating system.
    What do you think?
    Im not sure but I think now its time for reinstalling Windows. You can choose the HDD recovery feature if your notebook does it have or Toshiba recovery disk.

  • Corrupt backup file (.bbb) - missing manifest

    Hello,
    I'm wondering if anyone can help me with a corrupt backup file.  I did a full backup, followed by a factory reset on my Blackberry.  After the reset, I wanted to restore some of the data from the backup (contacts, ring profiles, messages, etc).  When I try to restore, it says the backup file may be corrupt and won't even let me choose individual databases to try to restore.
    I discovered that you can open the .bbb file with programs like WinRAR or 7zip and see the contents.  My backup contains a "pkginfo" file and folder full of the databases / .dat files.  I ran another backup after the factory reset and compared it to my original backup.  The Desktop software would allow me to restore that backup, but it doesn't have any of my data so it's no good to me.  I opened that one with WinRAR also and discovered it has a "manifest.xml" file that my first backup doesn't have.  The manifest file looks to be an index of what each of the .dat files is associated with.  I tried copying that manifest file into my original backup file, but it still didn't work to restore.  The number of .dat files are different between the backups and I don't think the index numbers match for even individual files such as my contacts.
    Is there any way to recreate the "manifest.xml" that should have been in my first backup?  Maybe a program that can read all the .dat files and decipher what they are so the index numbers can be matched up to the correct databases?
    Thanks,
    Andy

  • My Vista system crashed due to a corrupted windows file. When I reformatted C:/ & reloaded firefox & tbird, my bookmarks were gone. I have an image of the drive , but I don't know how to recover them and get the data back where I can access it.

    Vista system crashed due to a corrupted system file. The C drive was reformatted, and windows reloaded, along with the rest of my programs.
    Before the drive was reformatted, an image was made of it on a USB drive to save all the data. Now I need to know how to get the Bookmarks back for Firefox, and the Address Book back for Thunderbird.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the quick response. It worked very well, for both Firefox and Tbird.
    One hitch, until I remembered: those are all hidden files, in hidden folders. I had a devil of a time finding the "roaming" folder, until I found out how to unhide everything. In years past, I used DOS for that kind of thing. Explorer is much less user-friendly. Now that I know how to do it, it's simple.
    Thanks again for the guidance

  • Corrupt TIF files? How to recover?

    Hello there Gentlemen and Ladies.........
    I have recently had to recover 4000dpi scans which are TIF
    from a erased disk (sad and painful), each scan took me 10 minutes
    to complete , and now i have 130mb TIF files which Photoshop
    cannot open, because it says they are not TIF format...!!!
    I know they were fine before my recovery operation. clearly something
    has gone wrong, what tool could uncorrupt the TIF files back to normal?
    I can see their size is still 130mb after recovery, just the file format does
    not open!
    cheerio

    I used Data Rescue X II to recover the files from the deleted 100GB partition,
    it took me forever to recover them, and generating them was even more
    of a pain (i rented a Nikon ED4000 to make them)
    I need those images desperatley
    A mate of mine suggested using a Windows PC to recover them, and move
    the files on to Windows...i dare not
    appreciate any help, surely there must be a way, there is good data in those 130mb files...
    cheerio
