Can't install or uninstall apps after installing N...

I downloaded Nokia Maps via the Nokia website this morning, and tried to install it on my E71-1. On my PC, it said 'continue installation on phone' or something to that effect, so I looked at my phone to see 'File corrupted'. I figured it may have just been a dodgy installation, so I tried again. The same thing happened.
I have since tried to remove it from my phone, but receive a message saying 'Removing failed'. I kind of thought nothing of it, and figured I'd try again later, or I'd find a solution. I left it alone, and tried to uninstall a theme I have. I once again got the 'Removing failed' message. I have since tried to install apps but I get 'File corrupted', or whilst trying to uninstall anything, I get 'Removing failed'.
I have to assume that it has something to do with the Nokia Maps installation, but of course I'm not 100% sure. I'm still stuck back in firmware version 100.07.76, as I got this phone from a friend a few months ago, and she had no idea about phones so never updated it. I'm waiting on a usb cable, and I believe I am unable to update the firmware without one.
Anyway, I would really love to be able to use my phone properly again! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, I actually did a hard reset, I'm not sure why I wrote soft reset!
A soft reset will basically just restore the phone to it's factory settings. You shouldn't lose any data when you do this, but you should definitely still back up your phone first.
To do a ‘soft reset’
Switch on the phone
When the phone on the standby mode enter the code *#7780#
The security code should be 12345 unless you have changed it.
The factory settings would be restored and there will (hopefully) be no data loss.
Now this is what I did...
A hard reset will definitely delete everything off your phone. After you've done a hard reset and turned your phone back on, it will be just like it was the day you bought it. Please make sure you backup your phone (contacts, photos, music, everything!) before doing a hard reset.
Switch on the phone
While the phone is the standby mode enter this code *#7370#
The phone would ask for a password, the default password is 12345 unless you have changed it before
From memory, the phone will restart itself, or you may have to turn it back on... but that's it. You're done.
Hope this helped Thylacine

  • Can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard

    I can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard. Is anyone else having this problem?
    I have a standard iWork '08 install. Has anyone experienced? And better yet, know of a fix?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Most users who have had a problem opening Office files with the iWork apps after upgrading to Snow Leopard have the problem fixed by updating to the latest versions. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.2 & Numbers 2.0.2. I don't use Keynote, but it should also be updated. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • How to update PowerPC apps after installing Lion OS X?

    I need to update my PowerPC apps after installing Lion OS X, and if not find a way to run them on Lion using a patch, emulator, converter or otherwise? All help appreciated, thanks for reading. Please note, I do not curretny have a hard-copy of Lion or Snow Leopard.
    I feel Apple has really let its users down by creating all these compatiblity problems. Myself along ith many other Mac users have to spend valuable time and money, which we won't get back just trying tto find solutions to these problems. It really does lower my opinion of Apple.

    Use your System Discs you got with your computer and return your system to it's previous state with your last Time Machine Backup. If you were on Snow Leopard and have lost your discs then ring Apple and you can probably get a replacement set for a nominal fee.
    Good Luck

  • Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?

    Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?
    I'm all mac-based and followed the instructions for the upgrade to iOS6 software for iPhone but now my calendars won't synq.  When I connect to iTunes and run the synq process, it gets stuck on the Calendar step and will not finish the synq process.  I have to either wait for it to quit or force it to quit.  Additionally, when I try to log a new event or meeting onto the Calendar on the iPhone, it will lock up and quit the app.  I then have to shut down the iPhone to get it to open again but it just locks up again when I try to log a new event.  Any suggestions?  I'm tempted to do a back up and reinstall but don't want to risk any data loss.

    Hi there,
    I am using Rogers, which does support tethering.
    The iPhone does not show up in the list of devices in the Bluetooth preference panel. It fails at the Pairing step of the Bluetooth setup assistant.
    Cheers!

  • If you have problems with Apple Apps after installing Mavericks

    I had a problem with Apple Apps after installing Mavericks. They would bounce in the dock but never open.  The problem apps I had trouble with were CALENDAR, MAIL, and even APP STORE.   I am guessing it has to do with permissions when setting up via iCloud.  Here's what I did to make my apps work again after the update:
    Restart computer, then immediately hold down OPTION so you can start from the 10.9 RECOVERY DISK.
    Run DISK UTILITY, then run REPAIR DISK, then run REPAIR DISK PERMISIONS.
    After this, RESTART, then hold COMMAND OPTION P R at the same time until your computer restarts three times.
    After it boots up, the apps began working like they should have.

    That's where your questions about Lion should be posted.

    Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    There are can be reasons PDFs cannot be opened. For example, some forms created with Lifecycle Designer cannot be opened.
    Are you sure the file is a PDF? Can you open it in Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or PC? Does it give an error message when you try to open it?

  • HT1461 can i use my OS X after installing windows 7 ??

    can i use my OS X after installing windows 7 ??

    Just to clarify, what Paul_31 and Barney-15E suggested are both temporary boot options. If you hold no key down, the Mac will continue to boot into Windows first.
    To make OS X the default, you need to change the startup drive;
    1) In the System Preferences > Startup Disk within OS X.
    2) From the Startup Disk icon in the Windows task bar. This appear once you've installed all of the Boot Camp drivers.
    3) Restart the Mac and hold down the Command+Option+P+R keys (known as zapping the PRAM). This will always reset the startup drive to the first bootable Mac OS partition it finds.
    Once OS X is the default startup drive, then you can use Paul_31's advice to temporarily choose Windows to boot to.

  • ITunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.

    Hello.
    I get this error message
    iTunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.
    iTunes kann keine Apps mit dem iPhone synchronisieren weil nicht festgestellt werden kann welche Apps auf dem iPhone installiert sind.
    Need Help

    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.  Have the first two been tried?
    How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
    What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue?

  • Uninstalling CS3 after installing CS5 upgrade

    Is it necessary to uninstall CS3 after installing a new copy of CS5 upgrade?  For the sake of not eating up storage space?  Or does CS5 depend on files CS3 has already in place?  I'd like to get Bridge CS3 off my computer since Bridge CS5 is now installed. And CS3 is not appearing in the Add/Remove dialog in Control Panel (Win XP Pro)

    Please read this and this. In short: Attempting to remove older versions after the fact is ill advised. It's calling for trouble, especailyl with the fragile CS3 installers. Read the articles and obey proper procedures. Otherwise jsut leave the old version in place.
