10 Years Nokia and it's goodbye from me!

I have been a loyal Nokia customer for 10 years, always purchasing their handsets on a yearly basis.
Due an upgrade on my contract, i was going to go for the N900 but after the huge disapointment of my N97 i thought, enoughs enough i will try something else, Nokia don't deserve any more of my cash until they bring the software up to date.
I now have a HTC HD2 and it is amazing, i go the handset and it is WOW WOW WOW, i was hoping for this feeling with the N97 but never got it.
Bye. 

Solution to this, BUY AN IPHONE
As i posted in the nokia obituary thread, i want it everywhere so everyone knows how much of a piece of **bleep** the phone is
I sadly was one of the foolish Who purchased an N97 at great expense, struggled with it for months on end, problem after problem. This was far from my first nokia I've had nokias ONLY since the mid to late 90's as they were the leaders. Key word WERE. 
As I simply couldn't deal with the problems with the phone preventing me from doing simple tasks like making or receiving calls etc + the various other failings the N97 had + the time (days, weeks? Who knows) spent formatting, reloading, resetting and just trying to get the thing to work just crushed me. 
Some say the N97 was released to early? Well to you I say it was far to late, if it was released "later" when it was more "ready" it would have been scrapped as there is no way it could even be thought it could compete with other handsets that will be on the market in say the next 6 months. Nokia were just not ready, the phone was not ready, they were behind the 8 ball and knew it, but instead decided to release a substandard product to burn all those loyal customers out there. 
My solution ? Ebay, I sold the N97 at a great loss after the great expense of purchasing a "Flagship" phone 6 months prior. 
What did I get you ask? Well I got an iphone of course. 
Well that's a rubbish phone I hear you all say?! And the N97 "technically" with all its apparent and "advertised" features (never seen in the flesh & working) run rings around the N97 .. Sure you are right in theory. But you want to hear the crazy part? 
IT WORKS, I bought it, activated it, imported my address book & contacts, made a few settings changes, got a few apps (I even paid for them, something id never do with the OVI store) I have EVERYTHING I want working fine without problem. 
I then JB'd the phone to get it a little more "custom" to the way I want it. 
That's it, its been a few weeks now with this thing and I haven't had to format it, restore it, hard reset, spend hours of my days trying to get it to work, wondering why I haven't got calls or sms's that are expected to find that its locked up (N97) 
None of these things, like most people these days I don't have the time nor care for a product that wont be fixed to be all that it was promised it was, I don't have the time to waste trying to get it to work. 
In short I no longer have time for nokia as they haven't got time for me. 
As a "turning point" as such I also got rid of the Mrs. nokia phone (N95) and got her an iphone as I wish to not support nokia in any way. 
And even more amusing when I "terminated" my OVI account a couple of weeks back I thought that would be the end of it, it said this will close all your nokia accounts Inc your discussions profile, but no even the OVI TERMINATE FUNCTION DOESNT WORK!!!! I STILL GET EMAIL UPDATES FROM NOKIA WITH NO WAY TO UNSUBSCRIBE !!!!! - Can't log in as my user details don't work to change subscription settings, and there is no OFF setting for subscriptions either.

  • Hi I have an 80G ipod classic, It is a few years old and i have recently updated from a pc to Mac. When i connect my classic to the Mac it tells me that this ipod is synced to another itunes account ! If i restore i will loose all my music. Help!

    I have an ipod Classic 80G. It is a few years old and hasnt been used for  a while. I have just tried to sync it to my new Mac and it says theat thei ipod is synced with another itunes account!!!
    It was orriganally managed through my old pc but as far as i am aware the itunes account is the same. If i sync with my mac it will remove all that is in the Classsic and replace it with current itunes!
    How can i get round this ?

    Hi Becki ..
    You need to "authorize" the Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
    Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

    UPDATE: I had 36 Safari windows open and minimized on the dock from my last session; 20 of those windows failed to open b/c Safari "couldn't find the server"; I just went to the URL bar of all 20 pages and clicked return, and all 20 pages loaded perfectly, without dropping any images or losing formatting. This is a puzzle!!!

    Hi Can anyone please tell me from where I can download the Photoshop CS6 program I purchased a download (media less) some 2 years ago and all has been OK up to know but I am know having issues and would like to uninstall and reinstall. I have the relevant codes and activation keys but would need to be sure I can obtain the program again before I start. Thank you

    Make sure you are dealing with the correct product for the serial number.  If the serial number is for a full creative suite then you need to get the suite, not the individual application, and vice versa.
    Unrelated to that, in case it helps, here is a link to another site.  You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

  • I have an IMac 10.5.2 from about 5 years ago and recently my flash player stopped responding.  I tried to update my flash player but it tells me I need an updated system to install the player.  Can anyone help me figure out how to solve this problem?

    I have an imac osx 10.5.2 from about five years ago and recently my flash player stopped operating/responding.  Does anyone know if I have to install a new flash player?  I have attempted it several times and it won't let me.  I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this problem.  Do I need a new operating system?

    Why have you not updated to 10.5.8?
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:

    Bluetooth shuttted down after I updated to Mavericks, please help me !
    I am 70 Years old and worked very happy with my iMac (21,5“ mid 2010, 3,2 GHz Intel Core 3)
    until I updated him from  SnowLeopard 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2.
    2 Days all was OK. Next Morning-Start he needs (until now) 3 minutes to show me a SCREEN only milky white. After that he starts like ever with all ICONS in about 1 minute. (together 4 min.)
    ..But I must notice, that I cannot make anything, because the „BLUETOOTH APPLE WIRELESS KEYBOARD  and the APPLE  MAGIC MOUSE“ doesn't work anything like before.
    I could nothing do, I must drop my APPLE only out.
    That I maked ever 10x and all was the same... (Maveriks also 4x new updated)
    I taked my Logitech-Bluetooth-Mouse from the WIN-Laptop, dropped it in USB from iMAC...and in one second I could work only with this MOUSE...I buyd the Logitech COMBO K520 and all was OK now with my lovely APPLE iMAC to work with him...But without APPLE KEYBOARD and MAGIC MOUSE...and with a 4 min. -START until now.
    I  asked the EXPERTS from APPLE-SUPPORT under Tel. 0800-6645451 in Germany, became a Number, maked many Things by starting new, but the mistake after all is the same like before.
    When I look into ...Apple/ Info/System/ Hardware/ Bluetooth   ..my APPLE says: NO INFOs FOUND (Es wurden keine Informationen gefunden.)
    Under Hardware/ Diagnose : Selbsttest beim Einschalten: zuletzt ausgeführt: 15.05. 14, Ergebnis: Bestanden (that means OK) !!
    I asked many Peaple, who sold APPLE-Computers in the STORS, but they all had no IDEA, how they can help.
    I think, it could be a DRIVER when Starting the BIOS, JAVA RUNTIME a.s.o...
    Is an Expert under YOU to help me by my Problem with this iMAC ?

    dietmarfromdeu,
    if you start up your iMac in Safe mode, do you still have Bluetooth problems with your Apple wireless keyboard and Magic Mouse?

    i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember setting up one. I am currently using a windows vista PC. How can I retrieve the password or restore all my old data into the new OS. I have been reading blogs about the same situation and is it true that it is one of apple's bugs?

    It is NOT a bug.  You provided a password.  If you can't remember it, you can't restore your phone from backup.  Very simple.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    After using my MacBook Pro and pages for 2 years with the same printer, all of a sudden I can't print a pages doc even though the printer works and I can print from I/Mail, etc. Anyone have a possible answer?

    Often printing problems are a sign of corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist file & then restart Pages.

  • SSRS Line graphs, change the axis maximum and minimum by month, and change data series from calendar year to financial year

    I am using SSRS and I cannot access SQL server to answer my problem, so the solution needs to be done via SSRS only.
    I am currently trying to graph some data. The problem is, the months on the X axis are aligned by calendar year. I need the first month to commence with July, with the last month on the axis to be June. This also means that the year series need to be changed
    from calendar year to Australian financial year.
    Screenshots are provided in the comments.

    Hi Northern,
    Per my understanding that you want to show the month in the x axis as the order of the financial year(7,8,9,10...4,5,6) and also display the year in the series group as the financial year, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and we can modify the query in the sql to get the financial year value based on the fields of Calendar year, details information below for your reference:
    1. Modify the query as below:
    SELECT
    Calendar_Date,CASE WHEN MONTH(Calendar_Date)>=7 THEN
    YEAR(Calendar_Date)+1
    ELSE YEAR(Calendar_Date) END AS Financial_Year,
    MONTH(Calendar_Date)as Financial_Month,
    Billing_Amount
    FROM TableName
    order BY
    Calendar_Date
    2. Add the "Billing_Aomount" in the Value area, "Financial_Month" in the Category group area and "Financial_Year" in the Series group area.
    3. Right click the  "Financial_Month" under the Category group to select the "Category group properties",click the sorting and add below expression in the Sort by to specify the order for the month in the x-axis:
    =switch(Fields!Financial_Month.Value="7",1,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="8",2,
    Fields!Financial_Month.Value="9",3,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="10",4,
    Fields!Financial_Month.Value="11",5,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="12",6,
    Fields!Financial_Month.Value="1",7,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="2",8,
    Fields!Financial_Month.Value="3",9,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="4",10,
    Fields!Financial_Month.Value="5",11,Fields!Financial_Month.Value="6",12)
    4. Preview you will get the sample chart display as below according to my sample data:
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • I dropped my macbook pro 17" from about 4 feet from my shelf onto a hard floor and it dinged the corner pretty bad, but it still works OK. a year back also it fell of from 1ft height but that time there was not any dent.

    I dropped my macbook pro 17" from about 4 feet from my shelf onto a hard floor and it dinged the corner pretty bad, but it still works OK. a year back also it fell of from 1ft height but that time there was not any dent. my worry is will it give any prop in future or its just a cosmetic issue but in performance it wont give any problems. it happened an hr back & i am very upset for this misshandling.

    I dropped a MBP and dented that same corner, though it wasn't one of the unibody MBPs:
    It worked flawlessly for a month, then suddenly died.  I put it to sleep one day, then 5 minutes later remembered something I had forgotten to do, opened it back up...  and nothing.  It never worked again.  Repairs would have been well over $1,000, and would not have been covered by the warranty or by AppleCare (if I had bought it).  I opted to just buy a new Mac instead.
    Now, just because that happened to me does not mean that's what will happen to you.  However, you do need to prepare yourself for that possibility.

    Your Lightroom License key is,
    1. Cross platform Mac and or Win.
    2. It is a single user / owner.
    3. You can have two installations active with one in use at any point in time.
    4. There is no deactivate process like other Photoshop products.
    5. You can uninstall / install as many times as you need as long as you keep the spirit of the license.
    6. The license key is specific to the Lightroom version, i.e License key for LR 4 will not work for LR 5.
    7. You can upgrade i.e. purchase from any version of Lightroom 1,2,3,4 to the latest LR 5.
