Trackpad not working on BB8250 after hooking up to BB desktop S/W

My son has a BB curve 8900 and has the BB Desktop S/W installed on his laptop, I wanted to get some of his music onto my 8250 and hooked my phone up to the S/W , the only change I made was choosing ITunes instead of media player, I transferred some songs over perfectly but when disconnected from the laptop my trackpad does not  respond.....I have tried a soft reset, taking the battery out while the phone is still on, leaving the battery and sim out for 5 mins, what else can I do??
Can you only use one model of BB on the S/W on the same laptop?
Am I going to have to reinstall?? 
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a solution posted to this but since it involves getting a little rough with your device, I advise caution beofre you try this.
Below is the link and right under that is the solution.
Being an avid BB user, I would advise going a little easy on the plate mentioned.
If that doesn't work, you can try with a little more effort every subsequent attempt.

The solution is try to remove the battery, sim card and memory card. Then you will see a metal part [which is located exactly in the same place with the trackpad], simply push it and the trackpad is going to work.

  • Magic Trackpad not working on iMac after 10.8.5 update Help!

    The Magic Trackpad was working fine antil I did the OS X Lion 10.8.5 Update yesterday and the trackpad has not worked since.

    Look your System Preferences - Trackpad and see if it needs adjustment. If sill no joy then try doing a SMC reset 3x and if that fails try resetting the PRAM 3X. If you are not familiar with these please click

  • Macbook pro Late 2011 13.3 inch i7 keyboard and trackpad not working bluetooth showing a cross sign and no usb mouse is detected. Almost dead keyboard and mouse. Earlier same problem used to be solved by opening the lower cover and closing it.

    My macbook pro 13.3 inch i7 late 2011 edition has previously encountered unresponsive trackpad and keyboard. To solve that, I used to open the back cover and then close it. It has been working fine since that. Yesterday, same thing happened, this time I noticed that bluetooth icon is showing a cross sign across it and keyboard and trackpad were unesponsive. After some time , everything worked fine and bluetooth sign was back to normal. Then , suddenly it went back to the problem. I shut it down by holding the power button. When I booted it again, I could not login because keyboard and trackpad were not working. I attached a HP mouse it didnt work. I opened the back cover disconnected the battery and then connected it again, didnt worked. Since then , I have tried many things and nothing has solved the problem.

    @sanjampet
    As you suggested I reset the smc, in the first boot nothing worked. In the second boot, it all worked like a charm. I thought that my problem is resolved now. To test it, I shut it down properly. Next morning, I powered it on, all things i.e, keyboard, trackpad, bluetooth etc. worked and I thought that problem has been solved. When I was just going to visit apple forum to reply you,  the same problem reappeared. A sawtooth cross over bluetooth icon, keyboard not working, trackpad not working,no usb mouse working which worked well when it was fine. I reset smc so many times again and again but same problem continued. Isn't it a problem of the firmware?
    Next time when it will work, I will update its firmware.
    My macbook was bought in dec2011 so no warranty now.

  • TrackPad not working unless "Diagnostic Tests" app running in background

    My Torch 9810 TrackPad stopped working... I had downloaded the BlackBerry 7 OS free apps including those that provide "notifications" and "text to speech" and "speech recognition" capabilities that I don't mind having to fool around with, but I don't want to use all the time... they tend to take over buttons and configuration too much, so in my efforts to remove them or at LEAST get them to stop activating every time my BB moves in my pocket I was uninstalling things. I was told I had to reboot the device, and after doing so, the trackpad would not work.
    So I go back and restore my backup... and the trackpad works... briefly: all the restored apps start asking for permissions etc. and run their configuration wizards whatever and then the trackpad stopped working again.
    I've tried restoring AGAIN and have even downgraded the OS to get back to a "more stable" configuration with NO third-party software installed and no luck.
    At this point, the trackpad does NOT work at all in any apps. I'm sure this is a software-related problem and not that the trackpad itself is broken and needs replacement.
    I've used BBSAK to try to lobotomize it back to total "factory default" but that didn't work either.
    I want to rule out a hardware failure (I'm SURE this is just software related, because it happened after a reboot and there had been no problems prior to this) So today I visit the BlackBerry.com website and search for "trackpad"
    I get "trackpad not working" as the first result.
    "TrackPad Not Working" KB article
    At the very bottom of the page is a link to the "Device Self Test Application" instructions at:
    "Diagnostic Self Tests" KB Article
    So as soon as I start in with the Diagnostic Self Test app, it asks "Do you want a guided setup" and shows "Yes" and "No" buttons. Instinctively I try to use the TrackPad to navigate to "No" because I just want the trackpad diagnostic, and... the trackpad works.
    I exit the "Diagnostic" app and go back to my home screen and it works again... briefly...
    I re-enter the diagnostic app, the trackpad works, then I long-press the Menu key to go to different apps, and the trackpad continues to work.
    So, it seems like keeping the 'Diagnostic Self Test' app running in the background is 'propping up' the TrackPad so it works, but when I exit the Diagnostic app, it stops working.
    Also, the back of the device seems warmer than usual, as if the CPU is being driven hard.
    I'm wondering if some rogue app might be crippling the TrackPad? And the Diagnostic Self Test app is somehow pushing the rogue app aside but the rogue app is "waiting as hard as it can" and driving the CPU hard?
    Yeah, I'm grasping / speculating / making stuff up, but maybe someone can decipher what I'm saying and give me some clues?
    If there's a "end user totally restore the firmware to a factory configuration" that will likely resolve this issue, I'm capable enough to try it rather than be without the trackpad (or the device being repaired under warranty) for days.

    Note: I decided to try exiting the Diagnostic Self Test app to see if the TrackPad would stop working... or if using a specific app made it stop working... and after doing so, then rebooting etc. the TrackPad has now been working for many hours: dare I try to reinstall some of the apps I removed?

  • RSS not working in Mail after MobileMe instal

    The title pretty much says it all "RSS not working in Mail after MobileMe instal" The names of the RSS feeds are still there but all have the triangle error message beside them.

    you may have already tried this but in the mailbox menu at the top, try to take all accounts offline then take them all back online again. if that doesn't work you can always do a rebuild which is kind of a pain, but it usually does the trick.

    Does the issue happen to all users? What’s your IE version? Is there any error when you access OWA 2007 in IE?
    Please click Compatibility View settings in your Internet Explorer. Then, add the OWA site to the list of sites to be viewed in compatibility view and check whether the issue persists.

  • Trackpad not working; says it's not installed

    Last night, I was watching a YouTube video. Kept it open and closed my iBook G4, and today I woke to find my trackpad not working and when I go into System Prefrences, it makes no mention of a trackpad except when I type in "turn off trackpad" and it then says I don't have one installed. What's up??? I can't really open it up because it's not mine (the state gives students laptops).
    It stopped working before because it got wet and I eventually dried it out and until now, it's been working fine.
    Any tips? I heard it I might have to get OS X reinstalled (which is possible).

    NEVERMIND!!! IT'S FIXED!!!
    I somehow managed to fix it, and the trackpad is working again!!! I cleaned it real good with these "Electronic Cleaning Wipes" so maybe that's what did it (don't worry, the laptop was off and the battery was removed when I was cleaning it).
    SO DON'T WORRY... IT'S WORKING!!!

  • TS2771 My daughters iPod touch does not turn on even after hooked up to charger for over 24 hours. Tried to hold the power button and home button at same time for 10 seconds and still did not turn on.

    My daughters iPod touch does not turn on even after hooked up to charger for over 24 hours. Tried to hold the power button and home button at same time for 10 seconds and still did not turn on.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
