I've searched high and low for people posting about a similar experience, but after trying several different suggested methods, nothing seems to work.First off, I have a Napter-to-Go membership that I use exclusively on my Storm.This type of setup requires that I plug my Storm in and sync it to Napster every month or so in order to validate the DRM on each song. I noticed about a month ago that even after plugging my phone in and syncing that some files were not being validated (they won't play at all).
I was told that my best bet would be to reformat the card (specifically remove the music file) and start fresh.Unfortunately I've attempted doing this on several levels, including:
- Manually deleting every song via Napster (didn't work)
- Accessing JUST the memory card and attempting to delete the music folder AND after that failed (told me something about write protection) I attempted to reformat the entire card, which also failed.
- Using Blackberry Desktop Manager and attempting to delete said music via the Roxio program, which only froze after I attempted to access a listing of my music.

I just want to know how to install apps on the internal memory of storm 9530. My internal memory has more than 800mb of free space and very low application memory space.

I consistently only have 12MB of 256MB of free application memory. I read about other who have 20 or 30MB free and I do not see how they do it. My Strom boots with only 12MB free and the only apps that are running are Phone, Browser, home Screen, messages. How do I get more free application memory because I cannot add any apps to this storm.

I recently got a new Storm and it came with the 5.0 software, however I have installed VERY few apps and I only have like 28 mb free. Is this because of the new software? Also when I uninstall an app it will DECREASE the memory, plus I seem to have a slight memory leak, lose about 1 mb every three hours or so, but it will go back up at random moments. I believe this is all being caused by the same problem. Just have no idea what it could be.

I looked at some of the other similar threads on this subject, but my question really didn't get answered. Okay, I am on a Storm 1 (9530) on Verizon on OS version 5.0.0.328. I currently have Application Memory total of 128.0MB, but only 3.8MB free. My device memory and Media card memory are both about 97% free. The apps I use are: BB App World and FB, and the 3rd party apps are: iBerry Slider v 5.1 (the theme I'm currently using), Documents to Go, MeterBerry, Slacker Radio, StormLock and The Weather Channel. The first theme I downloaded was Appleberry, but I got bored with it quickly and deleted it. There were a couple of other apps I had, but I deleted those, in the hopes that I'd have more memory (one was BerryWeather; can't remember the others). None of my current apps uses that much memory, as far as I can tell - and certainly not anything near the 128.0MB limit. Not sure when, even after cleaning out the cache, using Memory Cleaner and doing a battery pull via MeterBerry, the app memory listed is still so low. Could the theme be draining it all? When I upgraded the OS to 5, should I have shrunk it? I'm not really sure what that means, just saw that expression on the Boards.

My Storm was getting real slow. When I tried to do a backup via DM it kept getting hung up when it got to the Messenger files. So I deleted BBM, always figuring that I can install it again. I did not use BBM all that much anyways. Before I deleted Messenger I would boot at 29mb and it would quickly go down from there. Now I boot at 41mb and it has held steady. I guess I must have had a corrupt BBM file(s) that was messing with my BB. I don't know how big the BBM install is but I doubt it is 10MB.It's not the amount of memory that I boot with that bothers me it is how fast I have been losing it. If I booted at 20mb and it held there pretty steady it would not bother me. It is just the unstableness of the OS that is driving me batty. I haven't been able to load any 3rd party themes on my phone without it bleeding the memory dry in a matter of hours. Google Maps would be a fast drain in just a few minutes. Hopefully this will improve my phones performance in the long run.

When I plug into my laptop it doesn't find the device memory in windows. Also, when I plug into media sync it doesn't find my blackberry. Desktop manager always find my blackberry and window always finds my media card. Does anyone know what to do about this?

When I have text conversations I seem to lose app memory faster resulting in the Storm becoming very sluggish and inoperable, only remedied by a battery pull. Is it the texting application that is the source of the memory leak or is the leak somewhere else only sped up with all the back and forth texting?
running OS 4.7.148 on Verizon
O yeah let me add also that it seems when I have BBM conversations as well app memory drains. Am I dealing with a memory leak or many memory leaks? Or is the phone just underpowered for all this?

Ever since I installed Verizon's official OS 5.0.0.328 on the S1, my app memory from a restart has slowly dwindled.When it started to boot up with about 28 megs, I started to delete apps. At this point, I boot up with about 17 megs without adding any new apps or themes.
I have insurance, but can also wait for wait until more details are listed on either a Nexus or Iphone is released on Verizon in a few months.Wipe and reinstall? New phone?

I recently went on a trip and took over 200 photos on my Blackberry. I need a simple way to transfer all of them to my computer, since obviously emailing them one at a time or moving them one at a time is not practical.When I go to Options > Memory, all options are set to On (Media Card Support, Media Transfer Protocol, and Mass Storage Mode Support).When I go to Media > Pictures > All Pictures, I see all my photos. When I go to Picture Folders, it says Device Memory.
While connected to my PC via USB, I try to pull it up in Windows Explorer. I see options for MTP Device - Device Memory and MTP Device - Media Card. There are only empty folders under Device Memory. Media Card has nothing under Data, and only my music files under Media. Similar behavior when I pull it up under Windows Media Player.

Has anyone else experienced this. I have a BBStorm.
I did not know my media files were saved on my SD card. I thought they were saved on my device.
In the options, under Memory, it says Media Card cannot be read. Verify that the memory card has been formatted.
First I took the memory SD mini card 8G out and put it back in.
Still same message.
So then I went to Format and formatted it...as it asked me to do.
Error message came up. Saying Format Failed.
However all my files are gone.
I am so mad that my blackberry told me to ensure it was formatted. Everything is gone off my BB.
Is there a way to recover this data?
I haven't backed up my BB before.

Why can't the BB OS use some of the removable memory card space to free up the internal memory. To me this is a no brainer, most of us have 16 or 32gig cards, I would be more than happy to set aside some space so the phone could run better. Most of the new flash cards these days are reasonably fast and could easily be used as a swap file place holder or reside some of the dormitory features.

I have looked everywhere and i cant seem to find any drivers. the blackberry website seems to say that they are on windows update and I can find them but i don't know how to extract them. Basically, i have a custom built pc and windows 7. All usb ports have been tested with other devices. I tried the desktop manager 5.0 and 4.7 and that doesn't recognize my BB. Windows says that i have connected an unknown device.
I tried rebooting the device and pc and removing the battery from the device. All to no avail.
Someone please tell me where to find it, give me steps to get it working, or where to find a self extracting driver. Also I downloaded the RIM blackberry smartphone driver from the windows update site and it still says it didn't install correctly

So I purchased a 1.5TB drive and set out to rip all my CD that I have been collecting since the 80's. I decided to put some of these CD's on my Storm. I opened the handy dandy DM and clicked on the media sync, but I would be damned if I could not figure any way to import specific albums. I can sync all (I have way too much to do that) or recently changed. But how the hizzy do I import only specific albums? Do I simply open the music sync folder on the memory card on my computer desktop and drag them over? If this is the case, why is the BB music sync program so lame?

I bought my storm a few months ago and always assumed that the 8gb card it came with, worked. Recently, I started getting apps and themes, and went to my memory and my total memory is 879.2 MB. There is an 8 GB card in it but says there is not one inserted and everything is enabled...

I am having trouble installing an update and am getting low memory warnings. I would like some help figuring out what I am missing or what I else I can do...I have a Blackberry Storm 9530
Aps Loaded
5.0 System software & core applications
BB application center
BB maps
BB messenger
[code]....
When I run the ap listing through the desktop software, total memory used (added up by me) is 66.1 MB plus 3693 KB. This is based on the memory that the ap listing says each application is taking up. So approx 70 mb total.Device says total ap memory is 124 mb. This means I should have about 54 mb available? Unless I'm missing something?But the device lists available ap memory as only 19 mb (immediately upon restart after battery pull)I have been unable to install the latest update (or rather the last one I have tried to update; maybe there has been more since, I don't know) because it says I need 33mb to do so.
Device memory - total space 879.2 mb; free space 864.5 mb
media card total space 7.3 gb
Device software version 5.0.0.328
What is taking up that extra ap memory and how do I make enough space to download the update?I did try downloading the update once, but it wouldn't let me finish... is it somehow possible that the update is taking up space without actually being fully installed? That would bring the numbers closer to what they should be - if 33mb is used by the update... if so, how do I delete that and start over?When I run the ap listing through the desktop software - the update is listed on the main ap listing, with a status of "available". And says it takes 33.8mb. It is listed again at the bottom under "application summary" - it is the only item listed there. Under the column for "pending action" it says "update".When I select/hilight an item from the main application listing, when I select "BB 5.0.0 core applications", the "update" is listed just below it, and they are hilighted together, not separate items. Although they do each have their own memory usage amounts (14.1mb for the core applications and 33.8mb for the update)Yes, I do sometimes forget to close out the correct way - but I also do frequent battery pulls - and the available memory info above was immediately after a battery pull...

I have a BBS 9530 and it has extremely low application device memory. I have removed everything (3rd party applications) and I still only have 7KB of memory available. I believe everything is being saved to my memory card and not my device memory. What steps can I take to increase the amount of application device memory? It looks like my phone is running 5.0.0.0.328.

i have a SE neo v. The phone has an internal memory of 420 mb and a sd card of 32 GB. There are several applications which i have downloaded from the andorid market. Most of these applications have consumed most of the internal memory. some of the applications do not get transferred to the SD card and are only retained in the SD card. now when i want to download new applications or update current applications, it says the memory is full. how do i transfer the applications to the SD card from the internal memory and download fresh applications. The applications are not visible when connected to the computer. Moreover, many of the applications are pre-set when the phone was purchased. Will the phone work if all the applications are transferred from the internal memory to the SD card.

Is it possible to move an app to the 32gb internal memory from main memory. I know that the external sd card is read only but why can't you move an app from main memory to internal memory like you can with a phone? The move to sd card is always grayed.
