Weirdness and a Reload OS 507 message...

Hello all
Wel, yesterday night thing got weird.
I plugged my bb curve8900 into my mac and wanted to transfer some files.
I got a message saying that my OS could be updated so I figured sure.
I oked this and then, aftr some time, my Curve went dead.....it kinda didnt do anythign and then the red light came on and it was at the start up screen with the 'Reload OS 507' message and the icon.
I googled this and was worried as hell.
So after some time it went odd and then it was fine, the home screen came up and the interface looked updated, now there was colour on the icons and it looked different. I also noticed that there was a twitter icon in my menu.
I tried to then acces my texts and contacts and nothing was there. **bleep**.
So having it still plugged in, I thought I could get my contacts back by restoring the BB. Ofocurse, as I now know, this only does it since the last time you'd sycned it so my BB has reverted back to nov 2009's call logs/contacts /sms's .
So, all my downloads have also gone now.
I was able to connect online before without turing my w-fi on, but everytime i try to access the ineternet i get a  "this is a wi-fi service.please ensure your device has an active wi-fi connection and try again' message which is weird because before i coudl go and browse whenever i liked.
also, I'm running the 4.6.1.310 OS, how do i update it if needed? i'm on a mac with osx. i have tried via the avaible updates but was wandering if there was another way.
my carrier is orange uk.
a battery pull didnt help this.
please help me with this weirdness as i cant listen to my fav psychedelic radiot station via my bb!
regards,
rik

rik, greetings.
So your BlackBerry device is back and running, just different, huh?
It sounds like, to get your browser back up to par, you need to resend service books.
On your BlackBerry device, go to:
1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
2. Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site:
From your handheld device:   http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15402
Go to the Personal Email Set Up icon and log in. Then under Help!, select Service Books, then select Send service Books.
From your desktop PC:  http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02830
North American Carriers - scroll down to select your carrier
WorldWide Carriers - Find your carrier on the list
3. With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot. This reboot, even if you have already done this, is often needed to install the service books.

    I asked, "Has this BlackBerry worked correctly for YOU in the past?"
    lol, ok. So the answer to my very specific question is, "No". You bought a second-hand, used BlackBerry, and as far as you know it might have been broken and not working for the seller. Personally, I would recommend you get your money back from the seller, and return the device.
    Otherwise, you need to deal with ONE issue at a time. First, you must load the operating system.
    See the link below for the download, and follow these simple installation instructions.
    1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=5D6646AAD9BCC0BE55B2C82F69750387
    2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • My email keeps on logging out and automatically reloading my messages

    for some reason, for the past 24 hours, my phone has been emptying and then reloading all of my messages from my synced email.  this is not the only issue I've had with my phone, but all of them started within the past 24 hours

    Hey jmelomac,
    Thanks for the question. If you have not yet already done so, let’s try restarting your iPhone:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    Restarting your iOS device
    1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your device
    If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If your issue persists, you may wish to delete and re-add the email account as outlined in this article:

  • Reload Software 507 - stuck at connecting to boot rom

    1. My Curve 8900 (Orange Unlocked) had an app error 523 and didnt load, so I wiped it with BBSAK.
    2. After that, my phone starts and shows a white screen with an image and below the error message "Reload Software:507" and stays like that.
    3. I have followed every blog and have followed every step, but the OS is not loading on the device and it gets stuck at connecting to boot rom.
    4. When I open the Loader, my PIN number shows without any problem, so I click "next". When I've selected the apps I want to be installed and click "finish", my phone will reboot twice when the PC shows "Connecting to boot ROM" geting a "fatal error message has ocurred [A0x00000001]" on the loader.
    I've been stuck at this process for too long and decided to post here for help.
    Is there any solution for my device.
    Thanks!

    Hi vatsal
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums
    You can try JI Cmder to wipe again and then try to load the OS ,But remember you had to click the Next  button on the screen as soon it shows USB PIN : UNKNOWN or else you had to try again :
    What to do next if Jl Cmder will not connect and wipe 
    If that fails then as a last resort you can try this :

  • 9630 Keyboard/Buttons not working; hard resets and multiple reloads of OS did not correct

    My BlackBerry 9630 Tour is a little more than a year old. Yesterday the keyboard, trackball, and all buttons stopped working while I was typing out an email. I could not power off the Blackberry without removing the battery for a hard reset. Unfortunately, even after many hard resets, the problem persisted, so I went to the forums for help and tried everything that seemed relevant (multiple times) with no success.
    After reviewing a number of tech support posts, this problem does not appear to be unique to any given model of BB and contact with liquids is cited as a common but not the only cause for this condition.
    I was outside on a very hot and humid day when the malfunction occurred so it is possible some perspiration may have come into contact with the keypad, convenience buttons, or trackball and caused the lockup.
    I'm looking for someone with more smarts than me to help me troubleshoot, identify the actual problem, and identify the proper corrective actions. See below for a synopsis of my actions taken, with the exception of taking it to the shop for repair/replacement.
    The corrective actions listed on the forums and blogs are varied but essentially fall into two primary solutions:
    1. If moisture is suspected to be the issue, let the BB dry out overnight
        a. Pull the battery, naturally air dry or use a blow dryer, let it sit unplugged with no battery for at least 12 hours 
        b. If this doesn't immediately work, try a clean install of the OS (see below)
        c. If this doesn't work, take to the shop and they'll either replace the keyboard and/or trackball or replace entire unit
    2. If moisture is not suspected to be a factor then perform a backup followed by a clean install of OS
         a. Backup your files using Desktop Manager Backup and Restore
         b. Do a clean reinstall OS using Desktop Manager Application Loader
             i. The OS installation process is dicey  and takes a little patience and focus-- you have to wait for the Desktop Manager to properly recognize the device before it can proceed on some of the steps and it may take several iterations to get completely through the process and get the "successful installation" message.
             ii. Further, you may need to keep the battery removed during the initial steps in the process and only insert it when the process gets to the point of actually trying to copy files into the BB memory
                * The BB LCD will display an icon that looks like a battery with a slash through it letting you know the process cannot proceed until a battery is inserted and the Desktop Manager Application Loader will also give you an error indicating it cannot find the device.
                * After inserting the battery, it will take a few seconds or more for the computer to recognize the USB device and for Desktop Manager to respond with the BB password pop-up window.
                * After typing in your BB password, the installation should continue.
        c. If you can get the OS successfully reloaded and your keyboard/trackball/buttons work -- great -- now restore your files and settings using Desktop Manager Backup and Restore and get on with your life.
        d. If this does NOT work after multiple successful clean OS installations apparently you are completely hosed; the only other option is to get it to the shop for repair or replacement.
    1.. Does anyone have a troubleshooting procedures that will identify whether moisture is the root cause or not?
    2. Is there another corrective procedure that's been missed?

    Took  BB to Sprint Store and technician took it apart, saw no evidence of moisture or any other damage, and concluded that the keyboard had failed. Not an uncommon occurance.
    Also, he told me you cannot simply replace the keyboard, it is integral to the systemboard, so you need to replace the entire device.
    He did commend the troubleshooting approach used prior to going to the store -- most folks won't take the time to do even basic troubleshooting (like taking out the battery), they just go to the store and say "fix it please". He confirmed that the steps outlined in the initial post were correct and did not have any other solutions.
    Take away:
    If you want to do some troubleshooting yourself to check for moisture, the process was pretty straightforward. After watching the technician, most folks with a little technical or mechanical aptitude should be able to manage the dismantling process. You just need a small phillips head screwdriver and a little patience. Good lighting and a magnifying glass or reading glasses also help!

    I have PSE13 on my system, Windows 8.1, 64-bit.  It was functioning properly after installation and now I get these messages when I go to print:  "The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available.  You need to check your printer settings before printing."  and then this statement:  "Default printer could not be opened."  I have reloaded drivers for both printers and made any upgrades possible.  It was working fine before and now all of a sudden, nothing.  Would prefer to have old PSE v.12 back, it worked with no problems.

    Creative cloud quit, says "download again" and still no joy, same message.  Camera raw gone, Existing Lightroom 4.3 and PS-12 won't talk.  What's up?  Looks like Creative Cloud trial botched up something. iMac
    Tried a number of "fixes" from blogs.  No joy.  Deleted all my adobe apps, rebooted, and Creative Cloud says it needs to reload.  Went through that process, and it quit near the end, saying it needed to reload and directed me back to same Adobe site.  Hmm.  Round and round we go.  How do I get off of this loop and get my Adobe Lightroom and PS working fine again?  Whole episode started after loading CC and then PS said it didn't have Camera Raw.  Went and downloaded that, wouldn't load and said I needed Adobe Download Diagnostic (or something like that) went to suggested link, whereupon it tells me it is no loger available. 
    Looking forward to cleaning everything off and starting over!!  Any input gratefully accepted and I will NOT be trying CC again.  I am sure it is just fine, just not for me, now.

  • How to get firefox to return to previous link and not reload it

    When viewing content from a page in a tab, clicking the back button causes the previous page to reload in stead of just returning to it. That makes it impossible (without opening the info in a new tab) to return to a page and click the next item you want to view because it is no longer there.
    Also, sometimes you get the message that the previous page is not available with a "try again" button.
    I just want the back button to return to the previous page and NOT reload it.
    I'm hoping there's an about:config setting that fixes this.
    Version 32.0.3
    TIA

    In order to change your Firefox Configuration please do the following steps :
    # In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
    # Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.

    Leo,
    Depending on your OS, you should be able to use;

    Some have found that the page may turn up blank to start with, so it may be necessary to reload the page.
    Others have found that it may depend on browser. Specifically, a switch from Safari has solved it in one case.

    Hi, i've just bought new bb 8900 and after updating software all i get is on the device (reload software 507) can anyone tell me how to reset the device or reload software???  thanks....
    Solved!

    Error 507 simply means the OS is not present on the device.
    Connect your 8900 back to the USB cable and run Desktop Manager > App Loader again. It should recoognize the device, connnect and process the installation.

  • Why is Adobe crashing and giving me "script " error messages?

    Why is Adobe crashing and giving me "script" error messages?

    Let's see if we can get you the details you need here:
    I'm getting the same Action Script pop-up on WinXP Sp3 32-bit and Win7 Pro SP1 64-bit systems, both running Seamonkey 2.10.1 with the Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20120615 Firefox/13.0.1 SeaMonkey/2.10.1, so this is the same browser as Firefox 13.0.1.
    The Action script pop-up has a Dismiss and Continue button and on WinXP clicking Dismiss seems to close the pop-up window and allow the Flash Player to work normally, at least for a while; clicking Continue results in repetitions of the Action Script pop-up - takes some time to come up again so not 100% sure on this behavior.  On Win7, the Action Script pop-up window does not respond to clicking either button, the browser appears to be hung and after a minute or so a message comes up in the Flash player box saying the Flash Player has crashed and to reload the page to retry.
    Here are the contents of the Action Script pop-up:
    I have experienced this on a couple of different sites, notably the Animated Map at weather.com which I get to through my Yahoo login.  Here's the URL, which may or may not work for you, since I get there through my Yahoo ID login:

    I hope this provides the necessary info to pursue this. Please let me know if you need more.
    I tacked this on to this thread since it seems relevant but if you want a fresh thread, please specify.
