Access points lost and can't recreate them after E...

I foolishly took the latest upgrade to the E90 soft/firmware via the Nokia software updater.  Previously I was connecting to the internet & downloading e-mails into my mailbox via GPRS from my phone provider (Swisscom). 
Following the upgrade, as well as some lesser problems (one application disappeared, calendar entries failed to restore from the backup to my PC) I found there are no access points at all.  I get "No Access Points Defined - Define One Using Connection Settings" when I open the browser.  In Tools/Settings/Connection/Access Points I get "No access points defined.  Define now?" and a screen with some connection settings that I can't complete. 
I still have the Configuration Messages sent by Swisscom when I first put the PIN in the phone (it was bought PIN-free) that saved access point settings for GPRS and MMS.  If I try to re-save these settings I get "Settings already saved.  Save again anyway?" and on selecting "Yes", "Unable to save all settings.  2 settings saved" - all of which suggests that there are still access points in existence but I can't overwrite them.
The settings wizard is no good as it just seems to look at e-mail settings, which I don't think have changed.  I've looked on the Swisscom web site but not found anything helpful.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Update to my previous post: I just found that the solution was to restore factory settings (under Tools/Settings for the E90).  This has restored all of the old access points, and I was also able to re-save those from my phone provider so I have access to the internet & e-mails.
What confounded me slightly was that (contrary to several other posts I've seen on this forum) the software upgrade changed my Lock Code (which you need to restore Factory Settings) back to the old value of 12345 - I had changed this to another code.  After waiting the necessary 5 minutes I used the old code & it worked.
In general I agree - a lot of pain and aggravation for very little advantage in taking this upgrade, so I'd say DON'T.

  • Lost my thumbnails and can't recreate them

    I'm using iPhoto 6.0.5. I started to edit some new pictures and noticed that every picture I edited had lost it's thumbnail. I checked out this site and found out it is a big problem. I tried all the suggestions including rebuilding the library.
    After I rebuilt the library ALL my photos had lost there thumbnail. After trying and trying I finally gave up and exported all my photos to a folder. I then created a new library and then imported all my photos back. I new iPhoto would recreate the thumbnails for sure this time. To my surprise it didn't work, I still have no thumbnails just 1000+ black rectangles.
    Does anybody have any idea what I can try next?

    Mike:
    As a first try, download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administartive name in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
    Then rebuild the library if necessary.
    If the above doesn't help try using iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild the library. It creates a new library by copyingt the original files and dB data that it needs and creates the rest. It often succeeds when iPhoto does not. Worth a try. Here's how:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: It can take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. One user reported that with a library of about 5,000 images it took about 12 hours so plan ahead.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • When I connect my apple tv to my access point upstair and connect my ipad to the same access point i cant see my apple tv when i open up the airplay menu on my ipad. but i can see the apple tv in the living room downstair which connect to the main router

    when I connect my apple tv to my access point upstair and connect my ipad to the same access point i cant see my apple tv when i open up the airplay menu on my ipad. but i can see the apple tv in the living room downstair which connect to the main router.
    Below is some info i get about ports.
    I tried to set DMZ on my main router to have full access to ported to access point upstair which is in the ip of 192.168.1.2 and the main router in the living room is the gateway router with the 192.168.1.1 ip.
    I still cant see apple tv after i try the DMZ method.
    any suggestion ?
    These network ports are used by Apple TV for communications on your network.
    TCP port 123 is used to communicate with a network time server.
    TCP port 3689 is used to communicate with iTunes while using the iTunes Library Sharing feature.
    UDP port 5353 is used by Apple TV for automatically finding computers with iTunes on your network using Bonjour.
    TCP port 80 is used for communicating with podcast servers.
    TCP port 80 and 443 are used for basic and secure communications with the iTunes Store via the Internet.
    TCP port 53 is used for regular DNS.
    These are well-known ports used by Apple products, like iTunes. If you can use all the features of iTunes, these ports are likely already open on your firewall or NAT router. Note: These ports may also used by other services such as YouTube and Flickr.

    When the Apple TV is paired with a remote, it means only that remote can control it, when it's not paired any remote can control it. You will need a remote for each of your devices.

  • I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me

    I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me?

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

    Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.

  • I imported photos from an old iPhoto (2001) to photo library and can now see them as thumbnails but not when I click on them. The screen is black cannot see or print either. Is there any way to salvage those old photos? I now use iLife09. OS 10.6

    I imported photos from an old iPhoto (2001) to photo library and can now see them only as thumbnails but not when I click on them. The screen is black cannot see or print either. Is there any way to salvage those old photos? I now use iLife09. OS 10.6

    Did you import the old iPhoto library into the new one? That's not what you want to do because you will import all of the original, modified and thumbnail files as if they were original files. Lots of duplicates and useless small photos.
    Do you have a backup copy of the library that you imported into to?  If you do then bring it in and then use  iPhoto Library Manager to merge the two libraries into a new, 3rd library.
    If you don't then you'll have to try to fix the current one and then cull out the duplicates and small useless photos as follows:  make a temporary, duplicate copy of your library and apply the three fixes in order as necessary.
    Fix #1
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your HD/User/Home()/ Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your HD/User/Home()/Library /Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #3
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If this doesn't fix the problem you'll have to start over from scratch and create a new library from the files inside the Originals folder of your current library.  But first you should cull out the small photos that would be the thumbnails from the 2001 library.
    Move the Originals folder to the Desktop, open and do a search for Kind=photo, File size is less than 10 KB.  That should find all of the thumbnail files which you can then drag to the Trash.  You might have to make that less than 50 KB. Then Import the remaining photos into a new iPhoto library.

  • HT4007 I Just updated Apeture to 3.3.2  Now there are some photos that I receive a message..."Unsupported Image Format"  Are there lost?  can I retrieve them?  can I change the format?  Help...?!?

    I just updates Apeture to version 3.3.2 after installing Mountain Lion.  There are some photos in Apeture that now say, "Umsupported Image Format".  Are these lost?  Can I retrieve them...how?  Can I change the format so that I can see them again?  Help?!?

    Are these images "Raw" images? What is the make of your camera?
    Check the version of the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update that is installed.  The version of the raw support is shown in the About panel: from the main menu bar:
         Aperture > About Aperture
    Download the latest Raw Update from here:
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.14
    If you have the latest raw support installed, but Aperture does not recognize the format, try to register the raw support for your camera with the launch services db, see this post by Alan Roseman:
               Re: Aperture 3 preview of raw file greenish
    But also read the following post, that explain how this is supposed to work and to correct the typo in the command
    In short: Quit Aperture, open the terminal, paste the  follwing text in (all in one single line) and hit return; then reboot the system.
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -R /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Library

  • Apps will not finish loading and can't delete them also

    Apps will not finish loading and can't delete them also

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    No data is lost due to a reset.

    Okay this is what fixed my problem. Some kind of error/glitch occured half-way through importing that third cd that prevented further imports from any other cd. Once I completely removed the half-imported cd album from my library I could further import cd's without any problems.
