I just tried again on another pc...i installed desktop manager v4.7 and connected the phone to the cable (phone with battery and without simcard). Clicked on application loader and then "add/remove application". It said total application space 74 MB. The process then started and stopped abruptly and said "fatal error has occured". Any ideas?

What application(s) are you attempting to load?

I go to add/remove applications and select:
Blackberry 4.6 system software (default)
Blackberry 4.6 Core applications (default) with russian characters and Font support,
Blackberry attachment service
Blackberry maps
Blackberry messenger
Brickbreaker
Browser (default)
Email setup applications (default)
Help
Input support (all languages)
Language and input support (all languages0
Memo pad,
Password Keeper
Tasks
Wordmole
Documents to go
Klondike
Sudoku
Texas Hold em king.

i then click next and it says "Blackberry device will be updated to include following software "blackberry 4.6 core applications"
i click on finish and it then says "fatal error has occured" !!

My blackberry version is v4.6.0.162 (platform 4.0.0.155) any help please?

What exactly are you trying to do? Upgrade? Install new apps?

I just need arabic, russian, french and portuguese language support. I am completely a newbie and completely confused.

It sounds like it is having a problem while trying to start the backup. Pull the battery out for 20 seconds and then put it back in. After it boots up, try to run AppLoader.

Also, do i need to put simcard in the phone while updating the device?

Guess what guys, i was having problems with desktop manager 4.7 so i uninstalled it and installed desktop manager 4.6. Now when i connect my blackberry 9000 i click on application loader and go to add/remove applications. I then click on start and it then says "no software is available for your device". Please help...

[dankarlinski]

double check that the OS is installed on the compy (sometimes it deletes when u delete the DTM

also, check the vendor.xml file again

Did you install the latest OS on to your PC? Desktop Manager doesn't have the software built-in. You need to install the OS to your PC, then when you run AppLoader, it will see the new version and ask if you want to upgrade.

Do i need to download OS file from same carrier or i can download from different carrier? Also, should i download same current version or latest version? I need arabic, russian and portuguese languages for update so what file should i download? I really had no idea that latest OS had to be installed for Desktop Manager to work. Thanks guys and please reply. You guys made my day.

I believe this is the latest OS that has the languages you're looking for:

Follow the instructions exactly and select the OS that says "English and Multilanguage"

Ok, how to install the file after download and then add applications for language? Thanks

The instructions are in the link. Just make sure you delete the vendor.xml file as it states. And the option to install the languages will show up after you install the OS and run AppLoader.
