Can't watch any video on my Curve 8530!

I've looked around recently to try to find an answer to why my BlackBerry Curve 8530 will not play videos, and nothing I've read seems to work. When try to play a YouTube video, one of the following 3 errors occurs:
1) "The device media processor is busy."
2) "An error has occured attempting to play media."
3) The screen changes from different shades of black, and no media plays.
I have no idea what is going on, and would like any advice that could be given!
Thank you for your time!

I had the same problem.. they cure was to back up all data and 3rd party applications FIRST!
then i did a System wipe and reinstalled everything.. now i can watch all video from sites such as youtube etc without a hitch.
it is extreme but it was the only thing that worked for me.. there is information out there on backing up the 3rd party apps using BB manager/desktop
do your research before you do this

Blackberry Curve 8530 bought May 2010, 3 dead batteries later...now no apparent life on BB

Can anybody suggest anything or I'll just have to move on to another device. My BB Curve 8530 bought in May 2010. Batteries keep dying, phone gets extremely hot, then won't charge. Nothing works. Sprint would not make the phone good. NOTHING happened to it, period. It just overheated itself and wouldn't cool down. Burned my fingertips getting the battery out. At one point, did get another $70 battery (3 purchased since May), all drained. What is going on with this? Sprint could and would not fix it or replace my BB unless I wanted a "refurbished phone, and after paying almost $300 for this one, why would they "offer" a refurbished, garbage can phone? I'm about at my wit's end trying to keep this phone. Any ideas? I've charged it, bought batteries, and now nothing. Blank screen, cold. Nothing in the service book helped. It is like it isn't even there. [Edited for privacy] if that is supposed to be the pin, it won't take it, either. Any ideas?

Because that is the warranty replacement method you agree to at purchase of the device, and that is your service provider's policy.
Good luck.

Transfer Data from BB Pearl 8130 to Curve 8530..Need help!

I have tried several times to transfer my data from one phone to the other thru the device switch wizard but having no luck in completing the transfer. I have the newest version of desktop manager....I am able to select which phone to transfer from and which to transfer to and it starts to copy the files, but before the transfer is complete I get a message saying fatal error-files not transferred. I have noticed that part way thru the transfer my newer phone (Curve 8530) shuts off (I'm guessing this is why data isn't transferring) so I tried keeping both phones off during the transfer, but still no luck. The curve keeps "rebooting" during the transfer (whether it's on or off). Any clues on what to do? Please help!

Are you trying to move 3rd party apps over, as well? If so, try deselecting 3rd party apps for transfer. You don't want the 8130 versions on your 8530 anyway.

Videos on BB Curve

Tried to play videos on my curve for fun, but they would not play. Transfered them to my media card fine a loaded them and they started to play, but only heard the first few seconds but saw nothing and it kept repeating. It was hard to exit, and had trouble opeining menus for a few seconds, almost like the system was running slow. Any suggestions? Any limitations to playing videos/movies on the BB that I need to know about?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

welcome to blackberry forums!
I am new as well and I will do my best to answer what I have learned! There are wiser wiser wiser folk on here that I am sure will continue to help you..
I can view videos on my phone. I have heard and understand that it is a software issue. I started with 4.3 OS and could view them.
I think if i understood correctly from my forum friends, it is a 4.3 or higher.
have a great day

Curve 8530 SMS Text Problems

My Curve 8530 will receive and send SMS texts ok for a while. Then, for no reason, I cannot click on an sms and open it. It will not show the previous texts. I cannot open the txt to make a reply. I took this to Verizon, he checked it and said there was definitely a problem, of course didn't have another phone, so ordered me one. A few days later I got a new (or probably refurbished) 8530. It's doing the same thing. So this is either a defect in the phone line or in the software for SMS text messages. I am very disappointed with Blackberry. I have had several of their phones, try to keep up with the newest technology even though it always costs me hundredes of dollars for the phones. I think this will be my last. If I cannot get this problem resoloved, I am switching to AT&T.

I got two of these phones and they both are doing it. I do a significant amount of work related texting on my main line 8530... I have to pull the battery anywhere from 5 to 10 times per day. I have contacted Verizon and I'm sending these 8530s back and replacing them with what I had before; the MUCH better, more professional and stable 8330.
I used my 8330 non-stop for 3 years. Never once had a problem with the trackball (Verizon told me the 8530 fixed the trackball problem---???)... Additionally, in the 3 years of using my 8330 non-stop, I may have had to pull the battery twice, from a lock up. Both times it was when I was actively using Internet, teathered to my laptop and an incoming call came. When I'd answer it, the call would work and when I'd hang up, the phone would crash...
The 8330 sold me on the Blackberry OS... The 8530 acts more like a Windows OS, IMHO.
A very dissatisfying experience.

WiFi issues with Curve 8530

Hi,
I am having major WiFi issues with my Curve 8530. Everytime I connect to my wireless router, it takes a long time to connect to BIS, and then if I try to use basically any data at all, my router drops my Curve 8530. Sometimes it stays connected, but I cannot use App World at all, and email, and web browsing is all over the place in terms of speed, sometimes it is fast, while sometimes it is slow, and most of the time it stalls while loading a page. How do I configure my router for use with BIS and have it not drop my Curve 8530 everytime I use data over WiFi? BIS works perfectly over my cellular carriers network, so BIS is activated on my device. I have tried giving my BB a static IP, but that did not solve anything. My router is a Netgear WNR2000. Also, I have the latest device software installed on my BB, and all of my apps are up-to-date.

Hi,
Have you had any luck and resolving your problem?
We have a similar problem but it's with iOS devices where only one can connect at a time. We have about 10 that need to connect. All other laptops and tablets connect fine.
Power cycling the AX411 fixes it temporarly.

Lost all contacts on Curve 8530

I recently downloaded a new version of Skype mobile to my blackberry and after restarting all of my contacts disappeared. I can only add one contact to my address book, but it repeats 5 times. I end up with the same name repeated 5 times and when I delete one they all disappear. Attempts to restored address book from back ups using BB Desktop Manager fail loading the address book.

You have "no address book database" or the Address Book database shows "0/00k"?

How can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type. The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
"H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
(earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes). If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back.

Will videos/movies play continuously on the iPod or only one at a time?

I have 80g iPod Classic and wish it could play videos continuously like it can play songs. Nothing in the pdf manual about it. Nothing in iTunes prefs about it. Nothing in iPod settings about it. I know if I make a playlist of videos in iTunes, iTunes can/will play the entire playlist before it stops. I dragged the playlist to the iPod, but there it plays one video and stops. Question: can it be done or can't it, and if so, HOW?

IT CAN BE DONE! I went to the linked thread
(http://www.podcentral.ph/forum/showthread.php?t=3801)
and tried this, which works: in iTunes create a playlist of videos/movies; select all; choose Get Info from the File menu (yes to the alert); at the bottom of the window (titled "Multiple Item Information") toggle the "Skip When Shuffling" to "No". Then you can drag the playlist to your iPod's newly created playlist box. P.S.: Of 11 videos, 2 were rejected for not being able to be played "on this iPod", even though they already had played on it hours before, even though I had to convert many files so they could be "played on this iPod". "In any complex system blah blah will eventually blah blah.

Curve 8530 no longer works

My Curve 8530 decided to overheat and kill the hardware on my phone. I can replace the battery, but it immediately dies.
I walk into US Cellular to their service center to see whats up, I am told this is an issue that has created headaches for many people, yet I didn't know about it. Apparently, I was supposed to know about the SOFTWARE UPDATE via FACEBOOK. That software update was supposed to fix this hardware update.
So, since this update was only known to the public via facebook, many people are losing their phones and having to turn around and buy a new or a used phone. I will have to do the same, but it won't be a Blackberry. Horrible customer service on both ends. I should have known about the issue either by bill, or phone call. A phone call is apparently illegal but yet they can call me telling me they updated my voice mail.
See ya RIM - I had a good 13 months, but if you can't create a product to last longer than a 2 year contract. You just aren't good enough. STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT.
And you wonder why you have fallen out of the runnings for the best smartphone as of late.

Hey Browndot513,
In this case we can try to reload the software on the BlackBerry smartphone to make sure it is running the latest version and there are no issues with the OS.

How do I watch videos (.mov files) from my iphone 5 on my windows vista pc?

Hi I've downloaded my videos from my iphone 5 to my PC which runs Windows Vista, but I cannot work out how to play the videos (.mov files)
I've tried the latest Quicktime player (7.7.6) and also Quicktime 7.6 and the audio plays fine but the video is slow and jumpy. The video plays fine on my iphone.
I've tried iTunes on my pc but I have the same problem.
The problem is even worse with VLC media player in that the image is distorted and pixelated, but again the audio is fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

You need to import the videos to iTunes and synch via iTunes

My friend just made a home video movie on his newest apple TV, however, I can´t watch it on my old version of apple tv. Would both apple´s TV format are compatibles?

How do you make a video on the Apple TV 2?

HT202020 Using a SDHC card adapter I can import directly on my iPad2 videos (.mov) taken with a Panasonic DMC-ZS3. The same video files (same file format) imported in Aperture 3.3 cannot be synchronized with iPad. Is Aperture causing the problem?

Oh, baby! This bad boy flies!! Here's what to expect:
I had 40,000 images in Aperture 3 and it was dog slow at everything. I installed 3.1 update today. It took 5 minutes to update the database and then behaved marginally better than before at ASIC library navigation. I was disappointed.
Then I QUIT the app. It took a couple of hours to "update files for sharing" with a counter that went to 110,000 images. So it must have updated every thumbnail and variation of preview. Turned it back on , and BAM. Came up fully in seconds. Paused for 10 seconds ten everything was lickrty split. For the first time ever, I can use the Projects view with all 791 projects and scroll quickly. I even put it in photos modevand whipped thru all 49,000 images!
Haven't done anybprocessing yet, but i'm liking it!!
