Cannot recommend OVI Suite 2.0 at all

I have only read a few of the threads here as I don't have time to fight to make OVI Suite work. I would caution anyone considering this product to wait until there is a stable version.  My two huge issues:
- Stopped syncing Calendar and Contacts after about week. No specific error code. Seems to be a very common problem.
- It is extremely intrusive and apparently cannot be silenced. I use my laptop for a lot of presentations, and sync OVI automatically via Bluetooth. As my phone connects and disconnects, OVI would come to the top over Powerpoint etc., or flash up status messages. How extremely annoying. Don't the developers know the basics of Windows development.
Nokia appears to be making a big splash on a poorly thought through and untested piece of software.   
I have gone back to PC Suite.

  • Cannot get Ovi Suite o sync with Outlook 2007

    Hi, my Nokia PC suite works beutifully with my E71. I only sync to my computer and not to ovi.com. When I upgraded to Ovi Suite, I cannot find where to set the sync to Outlook. I can only manage to sync with my ovi.com account. Where do i specify the Outlook sync specs?
    Niklas

    1. Run OviSuite
    2. Tools> Options> Contacts/Calendar and Tasks
    3. Select Microsoft Outlook from " Sync with Contacts Application/ Sync Conflict Resolution
    4. Save and Sync now

  • Cannot close OVI suite

    After downloading the latest Nokia updater, I keep getting the msg:" You must close OVI suite before using the Nokia Updater" But the OVI suite is not running. I tried opening and then closing the OVI suite, but still the same msg. Task Manager does not show the OVI suite as running. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks

  • Ovi suite cannot access music

    Hi,
    I accidentally aborted a music file transfer from PC to phone N5800 by computer shutdown.
    Now when I start Nokia Ovi Suite, it seems not to have access to the music folder on my phone. Everything else works, but it shows 0 music files on my phone, although there are plenty on it. Also, when I try to synchronize music, I get the error message "files cannot be transferred" (translated from German) for each play list in the Ovi Suite. So obviously, it can neither read nor write music.
    I tried to reinstall the operating system on my phone, and to reinstall and update Ovi Suite. Both was unsuccessful.
    I would use Nokia Ovi Player instead, but that does not connect to the phone (neither in PC Suite nor in media transfer mode). It still tells me to connect my phone, switch it to media transfer mode, and press OK, but does not recognize the phone when I do this. And PC Suite has not integrated music manager, as I understand.
    I can copy the files one by one in "file transfer mode", but then they are not linked with the phone's music player, and it is far from comfortable.
    I would be either happy with a working Ovi Suite or Ovi Player
    Phone: Nokia 5800 XPressMusic, softwareversion 40.0.005.C02.01
    PC: Win XP
    Nokia Ovi Suite: 2.0.2.42
    Nokia Ovi Player: 2.0.1106.00
    Connection: USB
    Thank you. 

    This enables me to use the mass storage mode to add music, so it is a bit better now. Thank you very much!
    However, I still cannot use Ovi Suite or Ovi Player. The problems stay the same.

  • Ovi suite and nokia c5-03

    I have tried continually today to get my phone to be recognised by ovi suite.
    It see's the phone model when adding a new device, but when i click on the phone, it comes up with the phone is not in ovi suite mode????
    What the heck, its the only mode available apart from mass storage etc. 
    It IS in ovi suite mode, I have done this several times, unplugged the phone from the USB cable and replugged it in. restarted ovi suite. restarted the computer, all to no avail. 
    Cannot even use pc suite, which is the program i actually prefer to use. PC suite recognises i have the c5 connected but wont allow me to do anything either
    Please please help i need to back up and put stuff on the phone that i had saved from my old phone (old phone lost somewhere on the motorway so cannot sync that way)

    Hi,

    Change/Remove.
    In the dialog that appears, choose Repair.
    - Click Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver and repair
    -Try creating the connection between your phone and computer
    totally from scratch. Start by disconnecting your phone. In
    Nokia Ovi Suite, select Tools > Options > My devices. Select
    your phone at the top of the window and click Remove this
    device.
    Then, select Tools > Add new device, and follow the
    instructions to reconnect the phone. 
    If this doesn't solve the problem,
    -Uninstall the following programs withAdd/Remove Programs in
    Control Panel (called Programs and Features in Microsoft
    Windows 7):
    Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver
    Nokia Ovi Suite

  • Installing OVI Suit on Windows Vista Enterprise di...

    Hy,
    I have a great problem with the OVI suit installation on a Windows Vista Enterprise 32Bit.
    Before i install ovi suit, there was the "Nokia PC Suit" on the PC this software is uninstalled now, and also i run the “Nokia_PC_Suite_Cleaner_7_1_1.exe“.
    Also i have browsed the Support Board and Google/Bing for solutions,
    But nothing of these entries can help me with this installation.
    OVI Suit version is actually downloaded yesterday (3.0.0.290).
    The installation stops at 1/3 of the normal run.
    I have tested the installation on 3 machines like the problem PC, without a problem.
    So i have no idea what i can do to run the installation to the end.
     Now I have started a new try to install the OVI Suit, and deleted before all Registry-Keys.
    By the way, is this really normal that the installation needs more than 120MB RAM?
    So it’s 16:30 at your site next business day is Monday, i hope you have all details and can help me.
    Greats from Austria

  • Ovi Suite Calender And Tasks / Notes Sync Problem

    I am using a N79. I have downloaded the latest version of Ovi Suite to my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit operating system. But now I am having a problem with sync. Calender and tasks , notes can not be synced with Ovi Suite. A notification window opens saying that reconnect and connect again USB or bluetooth. When I do this, nothing happens and sync again fails. I uninstalled Ovi Suite and installed Nokia PC Suite. No problem is seen with sync. Before my Windows 7, I was using Vista but there was no problem with Ovi Suite sync. By the way there is no problem with contacts, photos, bookmarks, music sync with Ovi Suite.
    What may be the problem? How can I solve the problem.....????
    THANKS!!!!!!!

    Yes I've checked the link too. But I still can't sync the notes (and only the notes) from my Nokia E65.
    OVI Suite will happily copy all other content at start up but failes when it starts to copy the notes each time giving the "Reconnect USB...." message with error number 83860005 (if that means anything to anyone).
    After many attempts yesterday I copied the notes to my Outlook, but again I now get the same mesage and it won't update! The only thing that I can think of is that some of my notes are pretty long and that there maybe a limit to the number of characters copied befor the process terminates???

    How I can not connect my phone again as a mass storage?
    Win xp, sp3
    And I also WANT EVERY NOKIA APP OFF MY COMPUTER. Why this ain't happening while uninstalling ovi suite (which was the only app that I wanted to install)???

  • Syncing Nokia X-6 via Ovi Suite [2.x], to Outlook,...

    Salutations,
    I'm new here, so I hope that I'm in good section. I have following problem. My mum has nokia X-6 and I bought her Nokia Lumia 800 and Samsung Omnia 7. When I want to move my Nokia X-6 contacts to Nokia Lumia 800, or Samsung Omnia 7 I get following errors:
    • I tried to export contacts to CSV via phone [X6], when imported I got contacts where 80% lack phone numbers
    • I tried to export contacts via PC Suite [X6], when imported to Outlook, Windows Contacts or Gmail, I got contacts where 80% lack phone numbers
    • I tried to export contacts via Nokia Ovi Suite [X6], when imported to Outlook, Windows Contacts or Gmail, I got contacts where 80% lack phone numbers
    I tried to import contacts through Ovi suite directly, export to all forms of CSVs, and all syntaxes, I never succeeded.
    Do You have any clue, how I might import nokia X6 contacts to Nokia Lumia 800 and Samsung Omnia 7?
    Thank You for any reply,
    Regards

    Hi Lexicanum,
     Do you see all your contacts on CSV file when you export them?
     If all the contacts are exported correctly to the CSV file, then it is upto the 3rd party software, how it treats the generated CSV file (It could be that the generated CSV file is not read correctly by the 3rd party software).
     If not all the contacts are exported to CSV file by using Nokia Suite, then you can submit the error report using this link http://tiny.cc/ja40z
    Thanks,
    Best regards,
