i'm stuck in the 507 screen after trying to update, now i tried to everything to get it back to normal and nothing, i'm still stuck on the 507 error screen.
Try running the App Loader as a stand-alone program, rather than through DM. There've been reports that it works more consistently that way. You can find it at c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe
I recommend CrackMem, which you can easily find by searching the forum. It automates a lot of the upgrade process, and allows you to customize your load.

Tried this too. All that comes up are my 3rd party apps

I'm not sure what version of the desktop software you're using and if you've mostly tried through the DM, but make sure you have deleted the Vendor.xml file. Then double click the Loader.exe file in the same folder.

When I run DM 4.7 comes up. But only third party alps show with apploader. Also there seems to be no exe files in the downloaded .132 folder. Ran the download twice.

DM 4.7 stashes copies of Vendor.xml in more than one location on your disk. Use the windows search function to see if you have other copies anywhere. Delete them all. The file has no other purpose, and deleting it won't hurt your PC.
guys, need some advice here, am on .266 now
but thinking of downgrading to .247 and let's say i have not install .247 previously , can i just overwrite the existing os and install .247
Make sure that any OS that is newer than the one you want is not installed on the PC. Just follow the instructions on the first page. You will be fine.
HI I upgraded my 8900 to the beta version(5.0) then I tried to downgrade it to 206, but it seems that my handheld doesn't recognize it. I also cant find the vendor.xlm i tried to search using the search but it still doesnt have it. what should I do?
After getting the 507 error, it then came up with a 561 error. Rebooted several times, pulled battery, etc. Nothing fixed this situation.
Read another post that someone had issues running loader.exe in Vista due to UAC. UAC on my system is turned off, but thought I'd give that a shot tried everything else already.
Went to the Common Files | Research in Motion | AppLoader folder, then right-clicked Loader.exe, "Run As Administrator" phone erased again and upgraded perfectly.
I have to say, "thank you very much for the wright up." Very simple. I am 100% new to BB. Worked great. The MAIN thing to do here is... READ and Follow the steps. Do that and you will have no problem.
Pardon me if I'm missing something, but did RIM just make it easier to update the OS? I just installed DM 4.7 and it automatically (almost) updated my OS from 4.3 to 4.5. I didn't have to do anything really, except wait.
RIM is trying to make the process easier. Unfortunately, the OTA upgrade does not install the OS on your PC, so when you try to customize it, it's missing and you have to download it anyway.
