What can it run? (Storm 9530)

Forgive my lack of knowledge, I am new to this....
What sorts of d/l-able applications can actually run on this phone?
I searched all kinds of things on the web, and d/l'd some ".jar" file based applications from one site that said they worked on the BB Storm 9350...but I don't seem to understand how to install them....
I tried drag/dropping them onto the memory card (where the PC shows them as copying) but then there is nothing to install or set up on the BB....and when I re-connect the device to the PC and look at the mem card again, the are no longer there....
DO these types of apps even work on the 9530? If so....how is one supposed to d/l and install them properly?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
The best way (IMO) to install apps to the Storm (or any BB, for that matter) is via the Storm web browser or the BB App Center add-on application. If you use the browser and click the vendor's install link, the Storm will automatically recognize it and install it...no independent downloading, no copying to the device (which, btw, does not usually work).
The app-center (from RIM) has a host of apps...the App Center installs on the Storm and, again just on the Storm, lets you browse, select, and install apps.
Some things can indeed be installed from your PC...but that means installing the DM software (it came on a CD with your Storm) and using it to install...I, personally, have never had a need to do any install that way. (Yet)
There are lots of apps compatible with the Storm...I'd suggest getting the App Center and starting there.
Cheers!

What can i run to see if my machine is a lemon?

i'm looking at replacing more of the keys on my 2009/2010 MacbookPro and to be honest i have not been happy with this machine at all.
the battery life is borderline atrocious. if i have parallels running in the background i get about an hour and if nothing is running at all and the machine is just sitting there i get 3 hours with it doing nothing.
the machine (and the power pack) get alarmingly hot at times, the fan gets loud enough for me to have to jump around and quickly shut down software because it sounds like it wants to explode or something.
also, i sometimes will go out for a ride and when i come back the fan is cranking away and it makes me concerned that something has been affected in some way for running like this. actually, to be totally honest in the last year or so i have tried to shut the case before i go out because i've been concerned about a fire or something.
also, i have a dock icons that will move somewhere random when i try and put them somewhere (app is closed) and instead of going where i put them they move to somewhere totally random.
finally, my bookmark sync with mobileme is constantly getting messed up and i have to reset it roughly once every three or four months.
i assume the bookmark is not related to the computer itself but this does not seem to me like it is normal. is there any way for me to check this on my end instead of relying on the mac genius bar?

hi sig.
thanks.
the keys seem to be out of my control. also, the dock icon issue has been brought up four times and no one wants to deal with it. granted, i haven't brought it in on simply that one issue but i guess i will. also, the mobileme bookmark sync gets reset every three to four month and every six to eight months i do this (after finally getting someone that understands what is going on) via applecare support. it /always/ comes back.
i run parallels but beyond that i am not seeing why the excessive heat and the excessive fan noise and the extremely poor battery life (mind you my 3 hour test was with /no/ parallels running) should be acceptable on a computer such as this.
can i ask you what AASP is and can i ask you specifically what i should be taking a look at when they run diagnostics on it?

What can I use instead of adobe flash

I just discovered that IOS does not allow adobe flash. What can I run instead and where can I obtain it?

Have a look in the App store, or search this forum for past post on the subject, there will be plenty !

What can be sending info in the background that sounds like messaging?

What can be running in the background that sounds like the Microsoft Paperclip looking Helper. I can't find anything obvious on Activity Monitor.

TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
So does anyone have any idea?
Thanks

I uninstalled Firefox once, reinstalled it and it ran. I had a problem so I did it again. Now it will not run and I get an error message saying that firefox is running and you can only run one at a time. I can't figure out what is running.

Because of a problem, I uninstalled Firefox once, reinstalled it and it ran. I had a problem so I uninstalled/reinstalled it again. Now it will not run. I get an error message saying that firefox is running and you can only run one at a time. I have uninstalled multiple times and can't figure out what is running. The is only one Firefox installed and it is not open. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.

I am running windows 7. My itunes keep shutting down on me. I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working What can I do?

I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working. A problem has caused itunes to stop working correctly. What can be the cause?

Hello Main Event,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I found this article while researching iTunes quitting unexpectedly on Windows 7 and feel it will help to resolve the issue here.
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
It starts with troubleshooting 3rd party plug ins, then moves on to account troubleshooting if needed.
Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any inference with plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
If you see the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the Create a New User Account section below. If you do not experience the same issue, consult iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-insfor steps on how to remove third-party plug-ins.
Take care,
Sterling

What can I try next? Adobe Reader on Mac not working. Repair installation/"shut down running..."

I am trying to fill out a form online which will not open and it says that I should install the latest version of Adobe Reader.
I have downloaded and tried to install Adobe Reader 9.4 on my Mac Book Pro. (computer software including Safari have been updated)
The form still does not appear on the screen, so I tried have been looking into what is wrong with Reader. One issue is when I select "about Adobe Plug-Ins" it seems that most of them have not been loaded. i.e. "Acrobat Accessibility"
Not sure what to do so I selected to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" and this is what comes up:
"Select the optional components you would like to repair..."
This is what comes up:
"Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari"
I select that and then this message appears:
"Please shut down running applications
Adobe Reader requires Safari to be closed before it can install or remove the selected components. If you are running Safari, please close the application and then click OK to install selected components or remove unselected components. You may also press Cancel to install the selected components at a later time."
I have closed all running applications that I can think of and the message will not go away after I press "ok".
What can I try next?

I tried this:
Manually uninstalling a plugin
If you can't use an uninstaller program to remove a plugin, you can remove it manually:
In the Location bar, type about:config and press Return.
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.
Search for the preference: plugin.expose_full_path.
Double-click on the plugin.expose_full_path preference in the list to change the value to true.
''''''''''' '''''Enter about:plugins into the Location bar to display the About Plugins page.
Each entry in the About Plugins page will have "File name:" followed by a path. Navigate to the folder shown for the plugin you want to remove.
Rename the file to something other than its normal name - e.g. npswf32 becomes Xnpswf32''''''''''''''''
Double-click on the plugin.expose_full_path preference in the list on the about:config page to change the value back to false to avoid exposing the plugin path to websites.
The plugin will be removed.
I can't select the file name to change it. It's just a list.

It always says:Firefox is already running but not responding; what can i do to fix this problem; it has only started after having downloaded the latest verion.

I downloaded the latest version of firefox and the problem has started; it aways says: "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window you must first close the existing Firefox process or restart your system; I have to do this about 3 times for the internet to come on again; what can I do, short of calling a technician??

Please read this article: [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

TS1368 When I am looking at iTunes on my PC, running Windows 7 (updates are complete), and click on the iTunes Store block in the upper left hand corner, I get the message that "iTunes has stopped working". What can you suggest?

iTunes crashes when I click the iTunes Store block. What can I do to get the iTunes Store to open on my computer running Window 7 (all updates installed)? It used to work last fall but some update must have reset something or the newer version of iTunes omitted something that would allow access to the Store from a PC.

My MacBook Pro is running very hot after lion install. Are there any hardware changes that will help? What can I do to get it back to normal?

My MacBook Pro is running very hot after lion install. Are there any hardware changes that will help? What can I do to get it back to normal?

I get the impression that most of the users on older hardware experiences similar temperature issues on Lion for a long time now. Awaiting for confirmation from the original poster.
In the meantime I'm just cautious with regards to pushing the machine to such extreme temps, since something tells me such behaviour which includes monitor flickering and the likes is nothing but abnormal for any type of use...
Any clues if 10.7.5 does anything on this? If not I'm afraid i see myself going back to SL for good...

My Macbook Pro is running very slow, what can I do?

My Macbook Pro is running very slowly, what can I do?

Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with a visit to: OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion
Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Data Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. SyncTwoFolders
6. Synk Pro
7. Synk Standard
8. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

Ever since my upgrade to lion 10.7.3, and iCloud, my macbook is running extremely slow. What can I do? It doesn't seem like my contacts are pushing through to the computer from iPhone.

Ever since my upgrade to lion 10.7.3, and iCloud, my macbook is running extremely slow. What can I do? It doesn't seem like my contacts are pushing through to the computer from iPhone.

Then your basic issues are: too little RAM, incompatible software, dysfunctional installation.
Add more RAM or kill as many programs that you use until the computer is running normally.
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps. Upgrade any old software.
Reinstall OS X:
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:
Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Choose the version you have installed now:
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.

Can't seem to sync my iphone 4 running ios 7 with itunes 10.6 running on a mac running osx 10.5.8 What can I do to fix this?

can't seem to sync my iphone 4 running ios 7 with itunes 10.6 running on a mac running osx 10.5.8 What can I do to fix this? Is there an itunes update? or How can I return to the previous ios?

To sync an iOS 7 device you need to be running iTunes 11.1.1; iTunes 10.6 is way too old and won't work. You need to install iTunes 11.1.1, but to do that you need to be running at least Mac OS X 10.6.8.
So you need to do the following:
1. Upgrade your Mac to at least OS X 10.6.8 (later preferably, but 10.6.8 at the miniumum).
a. Check first to see if your model Mac can be upgraded, check that it has enough RAM and so forth (2GB at the least, more if possible).
b. If you can't upgrade your Mac, or don't want to, then you will have to buy a new Mac with the latest version of OS X (currently 10.8.5, soon to become 10.9) and iTunes 11.1.1
2. Install iTunes 11.1.1 on your newly upgraded Mac.
3. Sync your iOS 7 iPhone with iTunes.
