Someone from RIM please resolve this. I'm really getting tired of lack of dev support from RIM. Do you think answering devs who have simple questions is providing support? Providing solution for **bleep** like this is what dev support really is and you definitely lack it.

Yes, many of us have wiped out dev alpha devices and is having hard time getting the apps back. Instead of observing us suffering to get the dev alpha devices running again why don't you just wipe your **bleep**ing dev alpha device and load the apps back and tell us how you did it.

And no, your AppLoaderWebSL **bleep** doesn't work on our non detectable wiped dev alpha devices so stop telling us to use it. When you can use it on your wiped device, then tell us how it is done.

You need some time out in the corner. Wow.

having the same problem, this sucks. RIM wants developers and still they cannot give an update on this issue...

[tezytan]

Have you tried my solution?

[apersaud500]

Tried everything: "There is no update available" error. 

[tezytan]

That's weird, usually when I did via my method it worked... Just did...

[bobbydriscol]

The update isn't available from Blackberry Desktop and is only available for windows currently.

It doesn't appear by that message that you're using the apploader update. https://developer.blackberry.com/devzone/blackberry10devalpha/devalpha_update.html

Is that correct?

[apersaud500]

yes

Try this:
1) Plug Dev Alpha into computer
2) Open device manager (right click on my computer, properties, hardware)
3) uninstalled the “RIM PlayBook CD-ROM” drivers that were installed
4) uninstalled USB Mass Storage Device that connected to RIM Playbook
5) unplugged dev-alpha
6) killed all processes that have “RIM” in them
7) Reinstalled AppLoaderWebSL_7.1.0.34.msi
8) ran desktop manager
9) rebooted dev-alpha (at this point, there should have a popup saying “BlackBerry smartphone driver installing”)
10) reboot dev-alpha again and desktop manager should prompt you that it can’t connect – click “repair”
11) press and hold power button again until you see red LED and now, it should recognize the device and sees an update and updates again.

If u cant access the device, try uninstalling the driver.
