Cannot update contacts in either PC Suite or Ovi S...

In Ovi suite, after updating then syncing contacts, Ovi suite tells me contacts have been successfully synced, but nothing in my handset contacts has changed.
In PC suite, after updating a contact, I get the message: "Writing contact failed. Try to restart application " (Which doesn't work).
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling all Nokia software to no avail.
This means I have to manually update contacts on the handset, which is no fun when there are hundreds of contacts with addresses, emails, photos etc.
Please help.

Cannot update contacts from within the pc suite

so, i've installed the latest version of pc suite but that didn't work, i've deleted it and run the pc suite cleaner, deleted the sms app from the phone and reinstalled everything. i can sync with outlook (set to sync in one way from phone to outlook) without a problem but i want to add extra info to the contacts in the phone. i have clicked on the contacts icon in the pc suite and all my (old)contacts are listed, when i click update, i get the update window appear with the blue and green dots but it just runs for ages before another window opens and says:Warnings
The following warnings were produced during the synchronisation:
The Synchronisation has been Terminated!
PC Sync information.
The Synchronisation has been Terminated! PC Sync could not update the data to the mobile phone.
PC Sync information. PC Sync was not able to send data to the mobile phone.so whats up here then? everything else seems ok? any ideas?Cheers

I have no answer, just to say that I have had this problem for some time. I will dispose of my 9300 as soon as I have found a way out and go to a Msoft Mobile platform.
Club Nokia deny that there is a problem with the Software and sy that I should return the 'phone. Of course my retailer does not provide an equivalent 'phone so that is no good (as I run my business from my 'phone).
It may take a number of weeks (indeterminate) for Nokia to update the software on the phone. (Most Nokia service centres are unable to do this so by some wierd process I pack the phone and arrange at my expense to send it to their central service organisation. Whatever happend to the customer here?)
It's clear from a trawl of the internet that this is a serious problem, as a long time Communicator user (since the first 9000) I am very disappointed with Nokia's lack of support on this problem and would suggest that you don't waste your time trying to solve it.

Cannot update ipod with either music or photos

Yesterday I received my new ipod. When it was being setup, I choose the options of synching music and photos (photos was defaulted to unchecked). After it got all setup, a lot of photos got put into my ipod.
Since then, whenever I try to update my ipod with either photos or music, the same bad result occurs. 2 error messages:
The ipod "owner's ipod" cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-50), followed by:
The ipod "owner's ipod" cannot be updated. The disk could not be read from or written to
I installed itunes a few days ago, so not having the most up-to-date software should be the problem, I assume.
If I don't get a solution soon, I guess I will have to call Apple support, because I am really stumped.

I had also tried to restore, but got a 1418 error.
BUT I FIXED MY PROBLEM:
Reinstalled itunes
Unplugged ipod
Rebooted pc
Replugged ipod
In setup screen, for synch photos, picked an empty folder
Now, all the photos in ipod were wiped out. I think maybe a non-photo file was originally sycnhed into the photo folder, causing corruption?

I cannot update my install of creative suite from 7.0 to 7.0.4 on my laptop system 10.9.4

Hi Christine,
The last version of creative Suite we had was CS6.
Am not sure which update are you referring to here.

Cannot update contacts

I tried to edit a contact by delete the old number and inserting a new telephone number, then i press the tick Done button. After few seconds, the old telephone number appears.
The reason I ask this is because, my ex colleage using this number (A), and when we resign, this number (A) assigned to another colleage. Hence I update the number (A) to the another colleage. But I could not edit, the number (A) will reppear in my ex colleage contact!
I tried to manually edit the contact via web base gmail account and it updated on my phone too and never come back.
Please help!!!!!!!

Hi,
That sounds odd. Are you sure that you don't have the contact saved as both Google contact and phone/local contact?
Try to delete the contact and add it again and see if the behavior still persists.

Why can't I update contacts in address book

I cannot update contacts in my Address book. The command "L" does not work, and the menu item is grayed out. Can do it on the iPhone. Not yet transferred to the cloud, as there are 5 computers on the samd account, and only 3 of them have the Ram required for 10.7. Ordering the Ram today or tomorrow.

Thanks again for your time.
I have done as you suggested and the info is as follows:

There is no such thing as a "Factory Unlocked iPhone "
They are either locked to a carrier who may at some stage offer unlocking
or sold direct to a user by Apple (from their own Stores or online .)
Those iPhones are NOT locked
Where did you get your iPhone
If from Apple try this

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Diavonex's reply is not pertinent to your problem at all

I have an iPod 4G, but I can't update to iOS 5. When I click on 'update' in iTunes it says 'The iPod server cannot be contacted' I have tried everything, even re-installing iTunes. Plus I cant update on the iPod alone. How can I update to iOS 5?

I have an iPod 4G, however I cannot update using iTunes. It says 'The iPod software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your connection is active.' I have checked my connections, they're fine. My apps won't update because it require iOS 5, it's currently 4.3.5. Also, I cannot update using my iPod only. What to do to update iPod?

Have you looked here:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

I currently have Leopard, and there are no longer updates for it. So I must upgrade to either Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. Without doing so I cannot update my itunes, and my ipod is no longer compatile with my mac. How can I buy the upgrade

I currently have Leopard, and there are no longer updates for it. So I must upgrade to either Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. Without doing so I cannot update my itunes, and my ipod is no longer compatile with my mac. How can I buy the upgrade, since I do not have access to the mac store as that comes with Snow Leopard? I went to Best Buy and they said neither Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion can be bought there.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

PC Suite: "Could not update contacts" - "Kunne ikk...

I got my new Nokia 6220 Classic yesterday and went immediately start to manage my contacts. I have pictures on about 70 to 202 contacts.
When I had to add a picture to a contact, PC Suite posted an error "Could not update contacts" Since my phone was set to via Bluetooth I tried with the USB cable without success. I rebooted phone and PC but it was the same.
I uninstall PC Suite and tried again but the USB cable and Bluetooth, without success. Today, I am at my job where I use the USB interface. Exact same error. I tried to update the firmware on the phone, but with the same, because there is not a newer version. But I get the same problem. The calendar works as it should, but messages do not work, here comes the message "The message could not be sent." - I can (From job, not at home) see the messages which have come, but can't answer or create new messages ..
Now I run a PC Suite Cleaner and reinstalled PC Suite. Same problem.
What should I try and what can be wrong?
I am happy using PC Suite and I use it very much! I want it to work .. )
Please.. ;o)

Hmm... I think I have solved this..
I started by taking a Backup this morning.
Now I finally desided to delete all and start over. I made another Back up, Restored the Back up from erliere. Then set contact memory to SIM and back to Phone...
And now it works?!?!?!!?
Only a few photoes to some contacts has to be redone, and som contacts appear more then once.. But My Suite works!
Suuiiittee!! (Sweeet!)
I really hope some one elles but me figures this out..

@them,
I'm just a user like you who volunteers my time here. Your technical question requires the response from a support engineer.
I do sincerely think you'll get a better response by asking in the Downloading, Installing, Setup forum which I referenced in post #3. They have support engineers who monitor that forum for these kind of issues. This forum can only deal with general issues. Sorry.

Updating contacts via PC Suite

Hi, I would like to be able to update contacts on the phone by reading in a csv file on PC Suite. Is this possible? I would be happy with the ability to update just name & number.

Nokia Pc Suite does not have an inbuilt calendar application in PC side. It relies on users having eighter Outlook or Notus Notes or Organiser and then you can syncronise the calendar data between the PC application (like Outlook) and phone.
There may be other PC sw's available that have that support, but I have not used any of those, so maybe there are other users here wh can recommend something ?
Thanks for the above advice. I never thought of using the Outlook component for calender items. That's been a positive result, thanksvery much for the help !

iOS 4.3.3 doesnt have the "Update your Software" tab so you will need to go to itunes and back up your iphone then restore your iphone and it will download the latest iphone software (6.1.4) if you dont want 6.1.4 download your current version and hit shift on your keyboard (alt if your on Mac I think) and click restore iphone and find your downloaded software 4.3.3 then download iOS 5 or 6 and do the samething after your phone boots up from restoring it to 4.3.3.
