But please read fully and make sure to follow the steps carefully.
I hope you backed up your info. Usually when I want to add songs to my bold, instead of using the desktop manager, I connect my BB to my PC and click open the folder. Then I simply drag the songs I want into the music folder. Same for pics etc.
Hope that helped, Good luck

Hope it helped.

JVM 513 requires the wiping of the handheld and the installation of new software. I hope you have a backup or can do one now.

To do the wipe and installation you need to be running Windows XP or Vista with the Blackberry Desktop manager installed. The link below is to the company's website on how to do this:

Hi Anand

Practically speaking i spent 3 hours looking for your solution but nothing much even the BB intelectuals failed .Try these steps out it may resolve the issue and lets hope for the best .

This error : 373 : Device Error means that the Timers are corroupted

1. Remove the battery for at least 5 minute.
2. Make sure u have working SIM card, other wise remove the old SIM.
3.You should receive an Hour glass spinning. Give a few minutes, after that u will see a 507 message on the bb screen, (which means there is no app loaded on the bb)
4.If this dosent work
Use application loader to wipe handheld clean and reinstall base software but do backup your data

And please let me know .

The problem is a java related problem. Your only option is to reinstall the OS after wipeing the handheld clean. Here is a little step by step for you.

1) Get javaloader (can be found on blackberryforums.com)
2) Get the latest Blackberry OS from RIM which you can get HERE
3) Run the Blackberry OS installer you just downloaded.
4) Shutdown Blackberry Desktop Manager on your PC.
5) Open a command prompt window.
6) Change to the folder where the javaloader program is on your computer (If you put javaloader in C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32, then you do not need to change folders in the comand prompt window.)
7) Execute the command "javaloader -usb wipe" (no quotes), and wait for the handheld to reboot with error code 507
8) Disconect the handheld from the PC, restart Blackberry desktop manager, and reconect the blackberry to your pc.
9) You will be prompted to "upgrade the OS on the handheld" follow the prompts, and when you BB reboots, it will be reloaded with the factory defualts.
10) Login to nextel.blackberry.com, and resend your service books.
11) Restore your BB applications, by reinstalling, or redownloading them.

I hope this helps, if it does please rate accordingly, Thanks, David

It is JVM error 513... This indicates all the data and application have been deleted from the device. However, not to worry as it can be very easily restored.

You will have to re-install the Blackberry handheld software and restore the data from the backup file (if available). To re-install, you have to connect the device to your computer and run desktop manager > application loader. In case you do not have the desktop manager and the handheld software, check with your service provider and these softwares should be available for download at their website.

my phone creen say error 513 my usb dont ddeteck the bb i don no please help me tansk

the password i kept typin in was wrong on my blackberry curve, so it started wiping everything and now it says JUM error 513 and it wont get into my phone,the only way it turns off is by taking the battery off,i tried reseting it and it goes to the same screen? what can i do to get in my phone?

All you have to do is use the desktop manager (DM) you should have loaded when you got the phone. if you didnt load the software, go on www.blackberry.com/software to get your version of desktop software. plug the data cable into the phone and do a "hard sync". from the DM, pick the application loader, add load your phone's new version of software. If your pc doesn't see the BB (which is inevitable because pc/windows is trash) restart both pc and the bb. Again, plug the cable into the BB first then into the pc. Once this is complete any info you had on the phone is gone. Sorry, should have used the desktop software before you had a problem :P
NOTE: YESS, mac users there is a desktop manager software for us finally! I believe you have to have "leopard" 10.5.4 or higher. :D
