Music problems with my new 5230!

I wondered if you wonderful guys could help me out with a couple of problems concerning my new Nokia 5230. I just received my 16gb sd card today and started transferring music files so I could listen to music on the move. Unfortunately I have came across a couple problems when previewing my music on headphones.
1. When playing mp3's from the start there are 2 quiet electronic clicks, sometimes even 3. The last click actually cuts the music out right at the start which is very annoying (music lover). Can someone tell me why this is? Being a sound engineer and a computer whiz I personally think the first quiet click(s) is due to the sound/music program activating and the final click has something to do with bitrate..So I did a series of tests concerning the bitrate and no matter what combination used..it still unfortunately clicked on all 2/3 accounts described. Infact the only bitrate that didn't have the final click with the audio cut were mp3's using 128kps so I'm thinking any bitrate above 128kps as my tests prove will cause problems!
2. I tried using the eq presets while on headphone mode and all the presets don't seem to change!!
3. Most of my mp3's in my collection has cover art and it seems that the nokia music player does not display them while playing(just has the disc with pink music note displayed all times)
Can anyone help us out here as if this isn't resolved then I won't be using this phone as a music device because that 3rd click is very annoying indeed and if it means I have to convert my entire mp3 collection to 128kps then I simply don't see the point in doing so!
Apart from that the nokia 5230 is a wonderful little phone!
Kind Regards, Mark

1. I am using a 5800 so I cant really comment. Xpressmusic range has been replaced by the X-series, so basically X-series is the new expressmusic with more emphasis on music.
2.
3. It would depend on whether your cover art is embedded into the file or not. Some cover art placing apps simply link the image to the mp3 file, so when you play it on your PC, the cover art shows. This is the case with iTunes (you have to edit settings for embedding). This is not the case with say, Ovi Suite, which embeds the album art into the mp3 file, so the file gets a little bigger because of the embedded picture. The phone will be able to play with album arts if the picture is embedded into the mp3 file. I personally use mp3tag to put tags and album art onto my files, but you can also use Ovi Suite which came with your phone.

  • I am having trouble with my bluetooth skipping while its playing music from my Itunes music...I thought that this was an antiquated problem with the new technology?

    I am having trouble with the music from my bluetooth "skipping" on my IPhone 5.  I thought that this was an antiquated problem with the new technology.  It's very frustrating to purchase all of this music and expect great sound and playability and get "skipping".  Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    Does the issue occur when listening to the media using the speaker or wired headphones?  If it does, the issue is with the media itself.
    If it does not, it's likely a bad connection or interference.

  • Problems With My New Macbook

    I bought my white Macbook early February and since then i have come aross a couple of problems, so i am posting here to see if anyone else has experienced my first problem and to warn you all of the second;
    - My headphone out only plays out of the left headphone unless I turn the volume right up which causes the right ear to distort profusely.
    - The highly rated "Incase" Neoprene Sleeve I bought with it has left black stains on the sides and looking at other threads it seems that it is only the newer Macbooks that suffer with the problem with the case.
    My macbook is now with the apple repair guys for a few days to sort the headphone problem out and the person I spoke to recommended getting a new case.
    I just think it's ridiculous that they advertise the case with picture of a white macbook when it actually stains them..
    Let me know if you have experiences similar problems with the new macbooks..
    Regards,

    I have tried multiple sets of headphones which work fine with my ipod and i still have the same problem and I get the same problem when playing music through itunes, frontrow, myspace and purevolume.
    Whilst i was on the phone to apple support they led me through a few different ways of resolving the problem easily i.e going into system preferences and checking that the pan is centered, restarting the mac by pressing 4 keys at the same time etc. and none of that fixed the problem.
    Hmm it seems that no one else has had a similar problem to this.. maybe i just got a faulty unit.. I should get my macbook back from the repair guys either today or monday so i'll find out then exactly what the problem was.
    Thank you all for your input!

  • Sound Problems With Brand New 24" iMac!

    1) My new iMac has suddenly stopped making alert sounds, such as for incoming Mail, no Mail etc.
    2) I cannot listen to any radio stations on iTunes any more - dead!
    Is there a problem with the new iMacs and sound?

    All of my other sounds (startup, iTunes purchased music etc.) worked fine. All of my preferences are set OK.
    Here's the odd thing: All of a sudden my alert sounds have come back and I can play SOME radio stations through iTunes, but not all.
    This is very strange!

    There certainly is a problem with itunes. I downloaded 9.2 and now it won't open. It won't recognize my iphone, either. I uninstalled it in the order recommended by the site, no joy. Deleted a configuration file, no joy. System Restore, no joy. All other software and hardware on the machine is working fine. I call AppleCare AND a local store, either they are completely clueless (which I doubt), or they have no idea how to fix it. I can't even back up my phone, or use the ipod. And since no one at Apple seems to care enough, I'll have to wait until the clamor is loud enough for them to even admit to a problem before I can use the ipod again.

  • Problems with the new Pages.

    Hi everyone.
    I wonder if i am the only one experiencing a little problem with the new Pages?
    My problem is that every other time i want to correct the font lets say trying to underline or make the font fatter using the hotkeys "Command+B" or "Command+U" or "Command+I", or even changing it manually in "formats" my font gets stuck, and i have to copy-paste text from another pages-file into my old one to get et back to normal.
    Anyone else tried this?
    Martin.

  • Problems with the new iPad and Joikuspot premium after iOS 6

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing serious problems with my new iPad after last iOS update. Usually I was connecting to the internet through Joikuspot premium on Nokia mobile phone (E6). I was able to do everything, https sites surfing, absolutely everything with no exceptions.
    Now, after iOS 6 update, I can't connect to https sites, google+, sync calendar etc.
    I've tried to change connection criteria on joikuspot but nothing. The fact is also that other devices as laptop or other smartphones are still working perfectly, in any case, sharing the wi-fi connection created by joikuspot.
    Finally the problem is 100% due to the iPad and the new iOS.
    disappointing, amateur for such a device... (iPad I mean).
    Any help?
    Many many thanks
    Vittorio

    Ho lo stesso problema, dopo l'aggiornamento a IOS 6 l'ipad non riconosce più il mio nokia N8. Con IOS 5 andava una cannonata...
    vorrei ritornare a IOS 5

  • Problem with the new server UCS C220 for set IP to CIMC

    Hi
    We’ve a problem with the new server UCS C220.
    We bought two servers UCS C220 M3 for CallManager 8.6 with High Availability.
    When we turn on the server during the boot and when it tells us, oppress F8 to enter at the CIMC and set the IP. But it never enters at the CIMC.
    Then, we configure our DHCP server and our switch, we connect the three gigabyte ports to our switch to give him an IP to the CIMC, so and then can enter via browser, but neither works.
    Note. The dedicated management NIC does not link, the other two ports do make link.
    What do you suggest to put an IP to CIMC and start installing our applications?
    regards

    You may have noticed that there is no DVD rom on the c220. What you need to do is:
    Login into the CIMC from your browser
    Luanch the KVM
    Insert the VMware DVD in your machines drive
    On the KVM pop up there should be a tab to mount the drive, after mounting it click on Macros and choose ctrl_alt+delete to restart.
    After the VMware OS installs press F2 to enter IP.
    Browse to the VMware ip to download the Vsphere client
    Open the Vsphere client, enter the ip of the vmware and the username will be root and no password if you did not set one.
    You can now upload OVA templates or manually create virtua machine from this enviroment.
    Hope this help

    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - requires SSL:

    Port: 993
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS:

    The Quick Answer
    Follow the instructions below to set up IMAP1 access in most email clients.
    Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
    this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option?  The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED.  Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right?  Port 993 can  use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe.  Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD.  Should I have used external client cert TLS?
    Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

  • Is Anyone Having Problems with the newer version of Firefox?

    I still have my older Mac OsXv10.4 Tiger software. I wasn't exactly happy with Safari browser as it would block many sites and were considered incompatible so I downloaded the free Firefox browser (the 2.0 version) of which I STILL have. I'm aware that there is a much newer version and would like to download that, but I've heard a lot of people saying they have been having severe problems with it, but then they have PCs and not Macs.
    So my question is for you Mac users that use Firefox, have you had major problems with the newer version? I'm real hesitant to download if I'm going to have the same problem PC users are having...like constantly crashing. Also would my old Tiger software be compatible? I don't want to upgrade to Leopard.

    Yes. I had problems with Firefox 3.5. The primary problem was very slow or never-ending loading of certain websites (particularly secure sites and sites with many features). I also have had similar, but not as bad, problems with Safari 4. I never had these problems with Safari 2 or Firefox 2. It just seems that with each update, the problems increased for me. I have read the Safari and Firefox forums and tried many fixes with little improvement. I have come to the conclusion that there is some kind of compatibility problem between the latest versions of Safari and Firefox and Shockwave Flash and/or Javascript and OS 10.4, particularly on PPC Macs. I expect there are many who will disagree and I cannot argue or prove the point. This is just my opinion. And I recognize that my problems could be caused by my setup and not by the browsers. By the way, I do not use any add-ons with any of my browsers. Anyway, I got tired of dealing with it and installed the latest version of Camino about 2 weeks ago. I also did a clean install of Firefox 3.0.13. Camino is working out great for me. It is simple and it works. No problems at all. So currently I am using Camino as my primary browser and Firefox 3.0.13 as my backup. I hope this helps.

  • Problems with a new IP phone 7906 after factory reset

    Hi Guys
    I am currently having problems with my new IP phone 7906 after doing factory reset and here is a video of it:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvCLtwIAwVw
    I used this command I found on the net:
    Hold down
    while plugging in the phone and keep holding it until the message waiting indicator (red light) starts blinking.  Then
    release # and type 123456789*0# in sequence.
    I was trying to switch my phone to sip and it also dont want to take tftp setup either.

    Tim,
    Found this on the net
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/ts/fn/620/fn62949.html
    Might be woth giving it a go
    6.Pull power on the phone (even if power is PoE).
    7.Hold down the # key on the phone.
    8.Continue holding down the # key and re-apply power.
    9.While still holding the # key wait for the Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) light on the handset to start flashing.
    10.Once the MWI light is flashing, release the # key and enter the following sequence exactly on the keypad:
    3491672850*#
    Once this sequence has been entered on the IP Phone, if all the network criteria above have been met, it should begin its recovery process. This process can take up to 15 minutes to finish. The phone may appear to be doing nothing during this time. However, if the phone does not recover after 20 minutes then it is possible that the recovery is stuck. In this case, re-examine your network and verify that steps 1-4 are in place, then re-issue the factory reset sequence.
    * Note: The factory reset sequence is a way for a phone to clear flash and still upload to a valid firmware image. This is facilitated by the termxx.default.loads file, but requires that the image files listed in the termxx.default.loads file are available in TFTP for the phone to download. Open the termxx.default.loads file in any text editor. This loads file is essentially just a packing list showing all the OS and application files the phone needs to function. The files include a cnu, cvm, dsp, app and jar files. Please make sure that these files as listed in the termxx.default.loads file are in TFTP. ("xx" will be either "06" for the CP-7906G model, or "11" for the CP-7911G model.)
    Additional Diagnostic Steps:
    - Try a hard-coded IP address as a test to see if this resolves the upgrade failures. If it does, and the number of failing IP Phones is relatively few, this procedure may be the most expedient. After the IP Phone upgrades successfully, reconfigure the IP Phone to use DHCP.
    - Try putting the phone on a hub or a different switch and see if this helps change the startup timing enough so that the upgrade completes successfully.
    Regards
    Alex
