Not a problem, it's just hard to go back and forth between these forums and the private messages to answer questions. You're good.

Did this work OK for you in the past to download, or never did?
Please try this:

Open your main Options > Settings

Click on General Settings and scroll toward the bottom , do you see the Cache operations to delete or clear the cache?

Please do that, then Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.

Now, try downloading something again and let me know.

Try going to the URL www.zonkewap.com

Also check your service books to see if you have blackberry internet browsing service 2, if you do, then delete it , knOwn to slow downloads.

What are you trying to download? Specifically?

A month back I had a DOWNLOADING PROBLEM, I couldn't get music from internet, whenever I tried to do so...it kept on about downloading failed even with my BIS activated, so you adviced me to CLEARE THE CACHE and pull battery out with the phone on, which I did..from there everything was perfect until yesterday(tuesday) it started that problem again, however I tried the above method but still having the same problem“download failed” I only have 4 months with BB but already I'm thinking of switching to another cell phone brand name, with this phone its either is SLOW TO DOWNLOAD or it WON'T DOWNLOAD at all...I really like BB but I can't continue like this really....“PLEASE HELP”.
I was not thinking straight, my head was full of “BB stress” but I did send my apology afterwards...
