I wanted to back up my Blackberry 9800 using Blackberry’s Desktop Software, but whenever I try to backup media files an error pops up with a message is that there is a connection problem or a problem with the device. It is on and connected. Below is a screenshot of the error message.
Error message:
There was an error backing up.
There could have been a problem with the device or connection during the backup. Verify that the device is turned on and connected.

Hi,
Here are some solutions that comes to my mind.
I suggest first is to delete your cache and try again.
In Back Up options select custom and exclude social feeds by unchecking the box.
Â
If this doesn’t work, the problem might be that there is a corrupt file. Check what file gives you the error, delete it and try again.

Hi Arron,
Resolve by changing Back-up directory:-
This error is because of your backup target directory selection. By default, your backup directory would be set to V Drive, which is a mapped network drive.
You will need to change your backup directory to C Drive and backup your files from blackberry.
Resolve by 'Custom' back-up:-
You can perform a 'Custom' back-up by selecting all databases, except for Application Data.
Follow the below steps to perform 'Custom' backup on Windows OS system:
1) Open BlackBerry Desktop Software, click Device -> Back up
2) click 'Custom'. Select the check box next to the data requiring a back up. Do Not select APPLICATION DATA
3) In the File name field, type a new name to change the default name of backup file
4) Select 'Encrypt backup file' check box and type a password to encrypt the back up file
5) If needed, select 'Dont ask for these settings again' check box
6) Click 'Back up'
