Unable to connect Playbook to Windows xp

Playbook will not connect to Windows xp professional 2002 service pack 3.
Does anyone know what version of windows will support playbook ...or if there is a frig to make it work.
The fault is similar to when you try to connect Windows 7 to playbook - the messages are similar but there is a solution to that in the knowledge data base.
Three weeks to get playbook to work with no help is not good !!!!

Hey spyder0234,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Do you have BlackBerry Desktop Software installed?  If so what version?
And what errors are you receiving?

  • Windows Phone Emulator is unable to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: The phone did not respond to the connect request. Some functionality might be disabled

    We are receiving following error, while trying to deploy the application on Win Phone emulator. “Windows Phone Emulator is unable to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: The phone did not respond to the connect
    request. Some functionality might be disabled.”
    I have tried all possible ways that we found on blogs. We are still not able to solve this issue

    I have had a lot of issues with the emulator in the past.
    Check out this troubleshooting guide. It might help:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj681694(v=vs.105).aspx
    Also, I find that if I cancel my build/deploy while it is stuck on booting the OS and then wait a short while the phone OS will complete booting, and from that point I can deploy to the emulator. It's a workaround, but it works well for me.
    I need to do that on Windows 10 tech preview, which may or may not be simply an incompatibility with the beta OS.
    I'm a self-taught noob amateur. Please take this into account when responding to my posts or when taking advice from me.

  • Unable to connect Playbook to Appworld

    I was previously able to connect to Appworld, but tonight, after entering my login ID on the Appworld site, I get a pop-up to enter my Playbook device password. However, I have tried entering it at least 6 times, disconnected and reconnected it, but each time, I get the following message:
    "Unable To Connect Your Device
    You have not entered the correct BlackBerry device password. Try entering your password on your device. You cannot access BlackBerry App World on your computer until you have correctly entered your device password."
    I've googled it and seen others with the same problem, but no definite solution has been offerred.
    SOS please. Thanks in advance.

    Sorry perhaps did'nt make myself clear - I don' want to connect both phone and PlayBook to my PC at the same time - just one device OR the other at a time :-) Also, to make it clear, I am not connecting to App World via both the device and the PC - I have the device WiFi turned OFF.
    Why do I want to connect to App World via my PC?  Because it's a darn side easier to edit my account from a desktop - I want to change payment details, for example, and update my catalogue for the specific device while I browse App World on the PC.  I am unable to to either of these because of the error message that I have not entered the correct device password (even though I have!).  I have no problem logging on to App World and browsing unfiltered apps but I cannot browse the catalogue for my device.  My devices are recognised (i.e. correct PIN number displayed) but the device password is not.  
    If I can't browse App World on my PC then why bother to have a PC web page that I can log in to with BlackBerry ID?  Just a little frustrating ...

  • I am unable to connect to the windows update center. i use fire fox and avast antivirsus. I think i need to use internet exployer to do this but it isn't working

    i can't use the windows update program. i think i have to use internet exployer to do this. i tried but it doesn't work.. can firefox connect to the windows update site
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://windows update

    Windows Updates rely on [[ActiveX]] technology. It's a Microsoft technology that is used to add functionality to Windows programs.
    '''Firefox does not support ActiveX technology''' for multiple reasons.
    * ActiveX is only available on Windows operating systems, and as a result webpages that require it will not work on Linux or Mac.
    * ActiveX integration with the Windows operating system has made it a target for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malware malicious software].
    Firefox uses [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+plugins+with+Firefox plugins] to view and use multimedia content embedded in web pages, and [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+extensions+with+Firefox extensions] to add new functions.
    Internet Explorer comes with the Windows OS family by default, and to update the system, please just do '''Start''' > '''Windows update''', which opens IE regardless which browser is the default one.

  • Trouble connecting playbook to windows PC when using AVG Internet Security and USB cable ?

    I have spent ages trying to get my PC (windows 7 64bit ) to talk to the Playbook. I found the following:
    Windows device manager sees the playbook and will let me back up and restore but not to see the files on the Playbook. Desktop software says problem with connection. On the "computer" window it shows drives but not the Playbook. Only hard drive and DVD drives. Looks like AVG is blocking the USB and as yet they have not come up with a solution and latest software wont let you manually configure the firewall other than allow and block (previous versions allowed you to config inbound and outbound rules)
    Elsewhere on the forums a solution was provided but it meant leaving the firewall set to "off" or "allow all" which really is a waste of time having a firewall at all.
    Please try this and see if it resolves your problems, It sorted it for me !
    Remove AVG Internet Security 2014
    Load AVG antivirus 2014 ( freeware) so now you are OK for antivirus protection
    Load Microsoft Security Essentials (freeware) so now you are  OK for firewall protection
    Playbook now talks and can be configured, also the contents of the playbook drive can be seen alongside your PC drives and DVD drives in the "computer" window of your PC  The playbook drive has now been allowed to be mounted where as it was blocked before
    I know how frustrating this can be I have spent ages on it ..so give it a try

    The USB-parallel cable needs a driver that supports Windows 7 x64 in addition to the driver the printer needs.  Additionally make sure the port settings are correct, usually the port will be something like USB001: or USB002: for the USB-parallel port. Some cables may provide a virtual LPT port such as LPT3:.  Check the documentation for your unit for details.
    The posts here list models of USB-parallel ports folks here have had success with in Windows 7.

  • Unable to connect to localhost Windows 7 x64, CF9 x64

    I've been following along with the Lynda.com tutorial on ColdFusion Builder. Everything went smoothly until the part where I'm supposed to attach CFB to the localhost. The Lynda.com presenter is on a Mac. I am running 64-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit ColdFusion 9 developer edition.
    When I would add the local server to CFB, it would sit with status unknown forever. Eventually I would get a message on the console saying
         Error retrieving server version. Cannot perform the operation. Check if the server is accessible from web browser.
    (I was following the thread about remote connection issues with great interest, but nothing there seemed to apply to my problem.)
    I have tried a number of different permutations of installing and configuring the components.
    CF9 x64 Stand-alone
    CF9 x64 J2EE piggybacking on IIS
    CF9 x64 J2EE built-in web server
    I tried these with and without the most recent patches to CFB and CF9
    With the built-in web server, I tried using cfusion:8300. I also tried creating a new server instance called localhost on 8500. When I tried adding localhost:8500 to CFB, CFB locked up.
    I have a feeling that I'm either looking in the wrong place or I have overlooked something obvious. I just thought of one thing I haven't tried... I will try to install the 32 bit version of CF9 to see if that helps.
    Any other advice would be appreciated. Is anyone else running CF9 x64 under Windows 7 x64?
    --B

    I decided to check the system reqs for CFB just in case I made an RTFM gaffe.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=coldfusion_builder
    ColdFusion Builder for Windows
        * 2GHz or faster processor
        * Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 3, Windows Vista® Ultimate or Enterprise (32 or 64 bit running in 32-bit mode), Windows Server® 2008 (32 bit), or Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit running in 32-bit mode)
        * 1GB of RAM (2GB recommended)
        * 1GB of available hard-disk space
        * Java™ Virtual Machine (32 bit): IBM® JRE 1.5, Sun™ JRE 1.5, IBM JRE 1.6, or Sun JRE 1.6
        * DVD-ROM drive
        * Eclipse 3.4.2 or Eclipse 3.5 32-bit (for plug-in installation)
    So, no 64 bit version, but the 32-bit should work... well - that's one less thing.
    I tried 32bit CF9 but the server wouldn't serve any pages. I kept getting a 500.0 error. Adobe has addressed this:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/vikaschandran/2010/07/08/altering-application-pools-in-iis-764-bit- to-create-32-and-64-bit-connectors-with-coldfusion-964-bit/
    but I decided to shut down IIS and run CF9 as a free-standing J2EE using its own built-in web server.
    Once again, CFB locked up when trying to add the new localhost server. I'm going to uninstall and reinstall CFB...

  • Unable to connect laptop with Windows 2000

    I have Lynksys router WRT54G. I have 3 laptops in house connecting to internet with no problem. A new person has moved in with a laptop that has windows 2000. The new person is not able to get an internet connection. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    The Win2K was wirelessly accessing the internet previously to moving here. This laptop has MA 251 net gear wireless modem card that sticks out of the side. Owner got this laptop several years ago when she was in the Army.
    The Win2K cannot see the other 3 laptops. 
    Sorry but I don't know the answer to your 3rd question.
    Linksys service rep suggested maybe needing ethernet cable to get the Win2K connected.

  • Outlook clients unable to connect to Exchange / Windows user profile

    Exchange 2010
    Outlook 2010/2013
    I've seen a dozen or so computers in the last few weeks with this problem. The user suddenly cannot connect to the Exchange server in Outlook. (Sorry, I don't have specific error messages for this part.)
    If I try a repair on the Email account or try to create a new Mail profile, I get this error:
    "The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
    I have verified all Exchange and mail security settings. Outlook configuration is not the problem.
    I tried deleting %appdata%\microsoft\outlook and %localappdata%\microsoft\outlook.
    I tried a repair on Microsoft Office.
    I tried creating a new Mail profile for a different email account.
    The only thing that has fixed this problem is a completely new Windows user profile, which tells me there is something else broken in the user profile. Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

    Hi,
    Please try to access Exchange via OWA.
    This issue may occur when the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders registry key does not contain all of the required data. Specifically, these problems occur if the AppData string value is missing from this
    registry key.
    To resolve this issue, import the User Shell Folders registry key from a working Windows User Profile.
    Steps to perform on a working computer
    Start Registry Editor. Click Start , type regedit in the Search programs and files box, and then press Enter.
    Locate and then select the following registry subkey: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
    On the File menu, click Export.
    Specify the name of the .reg file and then click Save.
    Copy the .reg file to the computer exibiting this problem.
    Close Registry Editor.
    Steps to perform on the computer displaying the above error(s)
    Start Registry Editor.
    On the File menu click Import.
    Locate and select the .reg file exported from the working computer.
    Click Open.
    Close Registry Editor.
    Best Regards.

    Create Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR  Create a restore point Win8
    Open HP Drivers & Downloads
    Enter your Printer Model information
    Select your Printer from the “Results” list
    OR
    Open HP Photosmart Plus All-in-One Printer - B209a Drivers
    Enter your Operating System in the Drop-down menu
    Click NEXT and Scroll down

  • Unable to connect to internet or print wirelessly on Boot Camp with Windows 7

    I recently installed Boot Camp and Windows 7 on my Mac Book Pro with no problems.
    A month later, I am unable to connect to internet or print wirelessly.
    It states that I am connected to my router.
    When I trouble shoot, it cannot find the problem.
    My wireless connection and cable connection are fine on the MAC side.
    Please help.

    looks a like a Windows 7 problem. I assume that you can click on the current connection info on the task bar and see a connection to your wireless router?  Have you updated your copy of Windows since it was working? I am wondering if it's an update that's applied in Windows which has done something.

  • [Forum FAQ] "Unable to connect to the server by using Windows PowerShell Remoting" error while installing RDS roles on Server 2012 R2

    When you try to install RDS role on server 2012 R2 using standard deployment, this issue may occur (Figure 1).
    “Unable to connect to the server by using Windows PowerShell remoting”.
    Figure 1: Unable to connect to the server by using Windows PowerShell remoting
    First of all, we need to verify the configurations as it suggested:
    1. The server must be available by using Windows PowerShell remotely.
    2. The server must be joined to a domain.
    3. The server must be running at least Windows Server 2012 R2.
    4. The currently logged on user must be a member of the local Administrators group on the server.
    5. Remote Desktop Services connections must be enabled by using Group Policy.
    In addition, we need to check if the “Windows Remote Management “service is running and related firewall exceptions have been created for WinRM listener.
    To enabling PowerShell remoting, we can run this PowerShell command as administrator (Figure 2).
    Enable-PSRemoting -Force
    Figure 2: Enable PowerShell Remoting
    However, if issue persists, we need to check whether it has enough memory to work.
    By default, remote shell allots only 150 MB of memory. If we have IIS or SharePoint App pool, 150 MB of memory is not sufficient to perform the remoting task. Therefore, we need to increase
    the memory via the PowerShell command below:
    Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Shell\MaxMemoryPerShellMB 1000
    Then, you need to restart the server and the issue should be resolved.
    You can get more information regarding Remote Troubleshooting by below link:
    about_Remote_Troubleshooting
    If you need further assistance, welcome to post your questions in the
    RDS forum.

    i found another possible reason, this solution worked for me:
    http://oyvindnilsen.com/solution-for-powershell-remoting-error-it-cannot-determine-the-content-type-of-the-http-response-from-the-destination-computer/
    I tried to set up powershell remoting on a server and kept getting this error:
    Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM client cann
    ot process the request. It cannot determine the content type of the HTTP response from the destination comput
    er. The content type is absent or invalid. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help to
    pic.
    After a bit of troubleshooting I discovered that the problem was that the authentication packets was to big (over 16k), this will cause WinRM to reject the request. The reason for authentication packets getting too big can be because the user is member of very
    many security groups or in my case because of the SidHistory attribute.
    The solution was to increase the MaxFieldLength and MaxRequestBytes keys in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\HTTP\Parameters
    If the keys does not exists you can create them, be sure to use the DWORD type.
    I sat MaxFieldLength to DEC value 40000 and MaxRequestBytes to DEC value 32768 and rebooted the server. Problem solved.

  • On my other compuyer (Windows Vista) firefox is unable to connect. This is all of a sudden but all day.

    When clicking on my firefox icon on my wifes Windows Vista computer, I get an "Unable to connect" error. More specifically
    "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at en-us.start3.mozilla.com". The network is working because internet explorer works fine. This just started this morning and continues all day.
