Tried updating 9810. now blackberry won't start. won't update.

Device info
i have a Torch 9810 unlocked that i'm using in UAE. it was running 7.1 and trying to update to the latest version.
Apps and free space
Phone won't turn on so i don't have this information
I tried to update to the latest version by plugging into my laptop and running Desktop software. luckily i did back up before doing anything. if pertinent, desktop software needed to update itself before itwould update my phone.
it gave me some error while trying to load the application modules and then just crashed.
now if i try to turn on the blackberry, it just loads up to the loading bar, the bar goes all the way to the end and stops there.
i connected it back to the laptop and tried to repair. it asked me to update again.
now when it tried to update, i get an error at the backup stage saying that application loader could not connect to my phone. and since the phone isn't working, it asks me to click igore and continue.
then it tries to install the new updated OS. it gets through enabling RAM or whatever, erasing applications, loading system software, waiting for device initialization, reconnecting to JVM. when it gets to "loading application modules", it gives me the following error:
The Application Loader could not connect to you Blackberry device. try the following actions"
(see pic)

i tried all the steps and clicked retry a few times. no luck. what do i do?
i wouldn't mind just restorng from my backup and using my phone like that. but i can't even get desktop software to allow for a restore at the moment.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It sounds like there's something seriously wrong with the update process. It appears that you're doing nothing wrong. Since Desktop Software is giving you so much trouble, I would suggest perhaps taking your phone in for a replacement. If your phone is newer than one year old, it will be free to exchange it (well, there might be a service charge but your carrier is responsible for exchanging it).
I would suggest following through on this suggestion. Once you have your new phone, you can load the backup file that you created. I don't know why you're having these issues but I wouldn't waste much more time on it. Get a replacement and load your backup file on it.
I hope that helps you.
P.S. My suggestion seems drastic but I'm not sure what else to suggest. If you want to wait and see what other members suggest, that's fine, however I believe you have an issue that's not going to resolve itself very easily.
Cheers.

Nokia 700 - won't start after FP1 update (112.some...

Just checked for updates today and I had a new OTA update available, yay! So I thought, "Finally, FP1 is here!" Here's what happened afterwards:
I charged my 700, created a back-up (never forget this step chaps), restarted it, took a deep breath, enabled Wi-Fi and let it update itself.
So first step went fine, it downloaded the update. Second, it rebooted and started loading the update files while displaying "Updating..." Next, it switched the label to a coups of gears and continued filling the progress bar. And then - the moment of truth - reboot.
Started initialising normally, then showed NOKIA logo, started the "Loading" animation with the five dots and... that was it. It keeps resetting while at the dots animation. After several tries it just gave up and remained blank. Waited some time and decided to wake it up - same scenario: starts init, several reboots, goes back to off.
Is it that the OTA SW updated screwed up my device? Really hope not!
Any words of advice from the community here before I go yell at somebody at one of my carrier's offices tomorrow morning?
Cheers!

Brief update - turns the phone is not "bricked" at all, problem is my SIM card.
It's ancient honestly but should that render the phone useless?
In short - tried booting without SIM at all - works OK. Tried with relatively recent SIM - OK. When tried with my old SIM (think I got it as a replacement to an even older price back in 1999 or 2000) - boom! Won't power up (keeps rebooting till it gives up at some point).
Although I'll easily remedy it by getting a new chip in the morning, I was wondering - is Belle FP1 not supporting old SIM cards?

BB z10 won't start up after updating to bb link

I accidentally dropped my phone on the floor, and it won't start up.
here are the following steps that i already did:
1. I already tried to update it on the bb link, after successfully updating i remove the usb cable, however it didn't start up. everytime i try to do a hard reset it automatically turns off, even when im seeing the blackberry logo on the screen. it goes off again.
2. i tried also to charge it first and then the blackberry name appears on the screen it will also automatically turns off and after that it will charge only and then again the blackberry name appears on the screen same thing happen again.
3. I tried to uninstall the bb link to my computer and install again the bb link then update it again, after the successful update. still no changes happen
4. I also tried to update the bb z10 os, in a hard way through internet explorer, nothing change still won't start up.
There's one thing that i've noticed everytime I plug the usb cable on my phone, through the computer and access the bb link, it will connect and then it will disconnect it goes on and on, as i seen on the screen. I updated the usb cable plugging in,thinking that can fix the problem but still nothing change.
I know that my bb z10 works fine up to now, because there is an instant that the bb logo appears on the screen completed loading and i can navigate it for a while like changing the language and connecting to a wifi, and the logo of my sim card appears on the screen, however it will take few seconds only, and then it will turn again to the same situation that occurs on my phone.
Please help me find a good solution regarding on my phone problem.

Since this occurred right after dropping your device it's probably damaged internally. Not much we can do here for that.

Intel iMac won't start up after update of OS... anyone w/similar prob?

Help! I recently did installs through "software update" and now my iMac won't go beyond the flat blue screen. To be more specific, it starts up, takes a long time on the grey screen with the rotating pinned circle and apple logo, then stays on the flat blue screen forever. I can move the mouse but nothing else happens.
I'm trying to remember what the software update installed... I think it was the most recent security update, iDVD, iMovie, iPhoto and Quicktime update.
I'd appreciate any advice or experiences you can offer. Thanks in advance.

Hi, hajime7. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. As a general check, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
2. An errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
FYI: Before installing software updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems.
Good luck!

Firefox won't start after windows update

After windows Updated my computer Firefox won't start. I tried a clean reinstall two times, won't work. When I tried to start the firefox the first time after booting my computer it comes with the following message.

I do not see much about coloum 14, but I am guessing this file is stored somewhere and its corrupt. Update.xul suggests that it is the update file. Do you still have this in your downloads folder? There are two places for update and for a clean reinstall:
[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/] in a private window will give you a new install or you can choose from here: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/]
This is what the file should look like; [http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/log/7a2edc5171e6/toolkit/mozapps/extensions/content/update.xul] If you can copy and paste that file from a working browser we can see the issue, but it will just look the same as the error.
if you can replace the contents of the file locally with what it should look like it will fix the error, but who knows if there are other errors. May be best to delete the updater and save all the profile folder contents.

Apps won't start after latest update?

Hello,
I'm on an older 2006 iMac (the one without the black border) and I installed the latest update last night. Now I can't get Firefox, Safari, Mail or apps working properly. When I try to start an app it bounces up and down and then I can't remember what it says but it won't start. Any ideas how to fix this? I'm thinking of downloading Firefox and Safari on my sister's computer and then transferring them via my memory stick.
I also tried a restart. Last night I just shut it down and walked away and figured I'd deal with it when I get home from work today.

Hi, first I hope you have your important stuff backed up!!?
I would & always do Repair Permissions Before & after Updates, so I would try the RP ..
Then I would go the SMC route, specific for your model..
If after that you still have "issues" You may need to go the Archive & Install route..

X301 won't start after BIOS update

Hi all:
Well I've had my new x301 for about 2 months and it's given me nothing but troubles....Recently I found out my laptop won't come back on from hibernation (when you close the screen and open it up). So I downloaded and installed the lastest updates from Lenovo (including the recent BIOS update), restart computer, only to find out it doesn't start up anymore...black screen, thinkadvantage blue botton doesn't light up, no harddrive activity, only light on is battery and power...
I'm thinking maybe something went wrong with the BIOS update. Is there anything I can do to fix it (besides shipping this thing to a repair center which is a big hassle, or paying $200 for an on-site tech that might or might not solve the problem).
Any help is appreciated.

Hello all
I just updated my X301 (2776LEG) with the 3.12-1.05 bios. Now my laptop won't start up when running on battery, it powers on for a short while and powers off again. This cycling keeps on going (after 30min I switched it off!) but as soon as i connect the power adapter it boots fine. Seems like this bios update f****ed up the battery power part of the computer....
I tried the bios battery trick but it only worked on the first boot and after that the same problem is present.
I have added 2gigs extra memory and a ultrabay battery and it has been working 100% for about a year now. This error started right after the bios update...
Thought that a reflash of the bios would solve the problem but i cannot reflash the bios with the same bios version...
Any ideas ?
Kind regards
Tommy

My MacBook won't start after iTunes update. I keep getting the spinning wheel. Any suggestions?

While trying to back up my iPhone 4S to iTunes, I received a message that iTunes had to be upgraded. I did the upgrade, but my computer won't start now. I get a white screen with the spinning wheel. (Like the computer is trying to boot). Any fixes?

AppleStar wrote:
Please verify you got this screen as well:
I had the same after updating fronm 10.7.1 to 10.7.2 tonight. Not even a re-install of the OS X 10.7 and Combo update to 10.7.2 helped. I think this time Apple messed up big time with the 10.7.2 update and some Mac Books (my case: MacBook 15" Mid 2009 = MacBookPro5,3)
If any Apple Support person reads this: Please get in contact with me. This is highly unusual!!
I think the best thing would be to call AppleCare 1-800-MY-APPLE.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
(Credit JSanders)
There are two methods of recovery for you to try:
One:
Open Blackberry Desktop Software & Connect your device with PC using USB cable, without inserting battery.
You will get three option Retry, Update Or Cancel, then click on update.
Once it is to the stage of the update "initializing handheld", then insert battery.
If this does not work, and you remain stuck on the backing up the Social Feeds database, go to the second method below.
Secondly:
Start your BlackBerry in Safe mode. Article ID: KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Modehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow your handheld to connect. If you are prompted to upgrade, cancel the upgrade for later.
IF you cannot connect or your Desktop Software does not recognize your device while in Safe Mode, please follow the directions here to force the detect:  Article ID: KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
Go to Device > delete > SELECT DATA > select to delete both the Social Feeds and Smart Card databases, and follow the remaining prompts to complete it.
Now, you can return and click to upgrade the device through the Desktop Manager, or reboot the BlackBerry in normal mode and continue the over the air upgrade.
If these do not work, there may be one even more drastic thing to try...

IMovie won't start since I updated to 9.0.7

I have a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.7.4. I installed the latest update to iMovie (from 9.0.6 to 9.0.7) and now iMovie doesn't start. The icon just bounces in the tray for quite a while, and then stops.
Does anyone have any ideas what's happened and what I could do to fix it? I've tried moving my projects to a different folder, but that didn't make any difference.
Thanks!

"So, the only way to reinstall an earlier version of Quicktime is to reinstall the system software (in my case OS 10.4) using the reinstall and archive option on the OS 10.4 Installer DVD."
Okay, I'm a little slow, but how did you do that? I don't have much experience with the Installer DVD.
Also, thanks so much for posting this. I thought it had something to do with my recent upgrade but didn't remember what I had upgraded. It was QuickTime, and I've spent forever trying to fix other things. You are my hero.

Macbook won't start after recent update

Hi Guys,
Got a problem with a month old Macbook. Clicked for the recent updates and after it restarting the Macbook won't start up past the Apple logo and the rotating symbol beneath it.
Any ideas ? Thanks in advance

Hi Nick,
Check out these two articles:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1541 (Mac OS X 10.5: Troubleshooting installation, startup, and login issues)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2956 (Troubleshooting Mac OS X installation from CD or DVD)
Running Disk Utility and trying to verify the startup volume or starting up in Safe Mode would probably be the next best course of action.

I updated and now safari just wont start!

so heres the deal:
ibook 1ghz 14", 512 ram, 30gb, X 10.3.9.
So I updated to the latest security update, and now safari wont start - the icon just bounces once in the dok and dissapears.
I tried resetting the application bit using the chmod command, but to no avail.
So i redownloaded the 1.2 update, with no sucess.
I deleted safari (doh!) and tried to install from safari 1.0, but apparently that is not possible to install under my version of os x.
Im really reaching the end of my tether now - all my bookmarks etc are in safari - and whilst I can use the other multitude of browsers on my system Id rather be on safari (excuse the pun).
Please please please help me!!!
Edit: Just tried to use software update, and that wont launch either :S
Edit: just found a related article after looking around the boards - please forgive me for not looking hard enough initially.
And for anyone having the same problem, check out: Saxman, "Post Security Update: NO Safari, Mail, Sftw Update, ...", 02:24am Aug 17, 2005 CDT
Edit: Well I tried the steps outlined in the above link - with no luck.
So I guess im still stuck & on checking them Im afraid to say that many of my apps wont launch, mail, safari, limewire, Software update to name but a few...
any thoughts?
Edit: Well I guess I just didnt pay enough attention to the advice in the post linked above.
Where the instruction tells you to remove the webkit from within the system folder's library I was actually removing it from the global library on the root of the hard drive! :P
Ah well, all is fixed now - and infact my ibook seems to be running faster, and safari is definately running faster now
Tally Ho!

It's not only Safari, it's every programm! The function is called "Resume" and will launch back the applications in the same way as you leaved them.
You can change it back in
System Preferences > General > Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
