Hi, i'm trying to download the mobile app for bloomberg on my bberry. I go to the site bbmobile.bloomberg.com on my phone to try to download it, and it is giving me an error message, saying the server is unable to process my request.

CHANGE- I now got the site open, but im getting a HTTP Error 406: not acceptable message. How do I get around this??

thanks a lot!

not sure how to "open" but to view browser sites with java, u would need to click the logo button/menu button>options>browser configuration>click on the top/first option and it will uncheck, therefore making ur browser enable javascript. Some sites do not ask before u enter whether or not u want to enable javascript or not. Therefore, u would then need to use this method. The only downside to keeping this option I think is that there is an increase in time. Mind if u answer my latest thread too? Don't worry, it's not hard.

What else does the message say?and it would help by explaining what bloomberg is exactly.

I have Bloomberg on my BB and it works fine. If you want to compare settings, feel free to PM me...

By the way, you will need your biometric key for the first time you log in. Also, logging in will kick you off your terminal.

Hi Anthony - Please post the settings you used to set up the bloomberg on your 8830. This is the error message I got:

Error: Invalid manifest or application descriptor. The "MIDlet-Name" attribute is missing.

This error happens before the screen with the download button

Sure, which settings do you think are causing the error? Browser settings? If so, under "browser configuration" I have checks next to everything but "support style sheets"
Show images on WML and HTML
emulation mode Openwave (WAP)
Content mode WML and HTML

under general props, check Enable Javascript Location support

Hope this helps, if you think there are other settings we need to look at, let me know...

are there ALX/COD files or OTA link?

are there ALX/COD files or OTA link?

I just finished installing bloomberg to my storm for a backup. I will seperate the files and post it shortly.

EDIT: Here is the app.

It seems that my copy is the 1.9.3.8 version which is strange since I downloaded it the first day app world released just to see what it was about. But the good thing is that I now know the update feature works for app world.
