Disparity in software update - n79

When i try to update my n79 software/firmware through the nokia site at http://www.nokia-asia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-up... it says the latest available is Version: 11.049 which is wat i have installed. But when i try to do the same through the "Nokia software updater" tool by connecting the smartphone via USB it says something like "a newer version of the software is available"... i have googled and see that there have been various updations like 20.xxx 30.xxx and the latest being 31.xxx but then why is this information not being shown when i enter the product code in the above website. I'm afraid to proceed further in the Nokia software updater tool since there is this discrepancy of s/w or firmware upgrade. Moreover i was advised by the nokia priority representative here in chennai, India that an update of the firmware is not absolutely necessary unless and until you get hangs/freezes on the OS. (In fact, when they at the nokia store connected my phone to their laptop and checked for any updates via the "same Nokia software updater" tool, it said that the version installed was the most recent one..! which is again the second discrepancy between my home pc and their's !!!
A bit of advice could help.. thanks!

there are two types of of variant software, one that is created for specific operator, one that is created for specific country or region, eg for some local need. It can just be that sometimes it takes a long time for the updates to get done for those versions also. Again a unique product code will apply.
If you check the software version from *#0000#, easiest way to check is to look at the "custom version" and check the last number field, if that number is larger than say 40 then there is a good chance that it is one of these changed versions.
Thing to do is to complain to your nokia care point, probably on the help line and ask why you have not had a sw update for 6 months or more.

Updating N79 to V30

I'm having a problem updating my N79 to the new firmware, which is V30. I bought the phone from the middle east, and now I am in the US, and i called the Nokia Flagship store to see if they could update it for me, but they said they could not since it doesn't have a US warranty and it was international.
My problem with updating is:
I connect the phone to the computer, the Nokia software updater detects it, and it starts the update download. when it finishes downloading and comes to installing the updates on the n79, it fails and an error message comes up saying " for optimum connectivity connect the device directly to the computer" or something like that. And that's what I have done.
I tried to update it via FOTA, over the air because I have a Wi-Fi connection, when i search for updates it says none found, but I know there is an update greater than v20 which is v30. Please tell me what to do
And I am a little afraid of updating my phone, because i've heard of phone crashes and dead phones and all that stuff via Nokia software updater, and my phone has no warranty on it. So that's why i wanted to do the FOTA.
by the way this is the version: Version: 20.175 RM-348 MEA

Alright first of all, I will never sell my N79. The reason I got it from the Middle East is because I wanted a Petrol Black N79. I called the Nokia Flagship store before i bought it to ask if there was a black n79, and they said that nokia doesn't ship that version to North America.
I don't know why you percieved that there was something wrong with my phone.. It's working perfectly and I came across no bug this week ( i bought it a week ago), and it was from an authorized Nokia dealer over there. But as I know, it is better to have your device updated at all times.
Anyway I just wanted to know why it won't update and what are the risks, but the question is should I update it if i find a solution?
Considering there is no problem with the device, would you advise me to update or not? And do you think that when the time comes for the V30 update to be available at FOTA, is it safe with no risks to update my N79 over the air?
Thank you
PS: is it also very common for mistakes to happen during the update process, like the phone dieing? I previously bought an N73 from the Middle East, and updated it here, and it worked great after the update?

Issues in updating N79

Hi Guys ,
I have nokia n79 FW : 31.002 , when i;m trying to update it via the nokia software updater this error occurs : "For optimum connectivity your USB cable should be connected directly to the PC, and not via USB hub, USB keyboard or laptop docking station" i tried to update the usd drivers as mentioned in the forum here but didnt work too , i reinstalled the nokia software updater but not working too , so what's the soultion? , and what if i wanna to update from the mobile itself , i once saw this option in the mobile but i cant find it now ,anyway is there a way to update my FW ?
Thanks
Sherif

Type *#0000# at the stand-by screen. Go to Options -> Check for updates. If the updates are released OTA, you will be prompted to download and install. You would require a working Wireless network or a Data plan in order to do OTA update.
If you don't get any updates, then try the NSU method. This time, use another port of the PC.

HT5381 i did a software update and now mail wont open at all

Help......my mail app is coming up with an error "You can't use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OS X". Can I uninstall the update?

!! WARNING !!
about the September 2012
"Security Update 2012-004"
If you've got "Mail.app" in a folder OTHER THAN the root "Applications" folder,
MOVE "MAIL.APP" TO THE APPLICATIONS FOLDER
**BEFORE** INSTALLING THE "004" UPDATE!!
Because *IF* you use OSX's integrated Software Update app from the Apple menu to do the "004" updating, and *IF* your Mail.app is NOT in the Applications folder, then buddy, you've got some sitdown fixit time ahead of ya and/or some internet tie-up time downloading the "004" update file itself.
Been through it all, already. In fact, just got done getting my Mail back up & running. And I tried everything short of attempting to unpacking my "Mail.pkg" receipt file using... whatever... even Pacifist couldn't get it out. So that fixit "Plan D" died quick. And I'm not savvy enough to use Terminal commands to do "Plan E," so that SUDO stuff was my brick wall.
So I compressed my entire "Mail" subdirectory that contain all my emails, for safekeeping during the required surgery, or whatever would work, leaving the original Mail directory where it was. In case something bad happened in all my fixit whatevers, the one thing I *didn't* want to cross paths with was a hosed Library -> Mail folder. Then I'd be pssd. But I can wipe out that ZIP now 'cause all's well now. After 6 hrs of downloading thru a mobile broadband hotspot running at only 14KB/sec speed due to my having gone over my T-Mobile hotspot plan's bandwidth amount (throttled-down after reaching the limit, tho not cut off completely. Kinda nice, but it's a huge speed drop).
I tried moving the two Mail.app versions around, compressing them & then trashing the original so they wouldn't be recognized, blabla, even booted my Mac in Safe Mode & reinstalled the "MacOSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) Update Combo.dmg" update file, which in the past has fixed many problems. But after restarting, not this one.
Like a dummy who ignored knowing better, I had my Mail.app in a folder other than the Applications folder, with only an alias to that being in the Applications folder. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. The updater don't see that as nuthin special or useful.
So if you've got, like I've got, "old" icons for Mail.app (v4.5) in your Finder toolbar & in your Dock that all point to "Mail.app v4.5" in whatever folder you've got that in, other than in the Applications folder (where Apple apparently REQUIRES that it be located, and ONLY there, at least for OSX updating purposes), then after you download & autorun that "004" updater using Software Update, NONE of your pre-existing Mail icons will work. And MOST aggravatingly, **NOR** will your brand-new "Mail.app v4.6" work that came out of the "004" updating installation. So basically, your Mail.app's... all of 'em.... are hosed. But only if you run the "004" update without your "Mail.app v4.5" being located in your Applications folder and ONLY in your Applications folder. And duplicates of Mail.app, scattered around your HDD?? Always a problem with many Apple apps.... The Apple software engineers apparently like 'em to be in the Applications folder, and in ONLY there, and ONLY the latest version, and ONLY 1 single copy of each on your entire HDD. They just don't seem to stress that enough, it appears. Kind of an oversight for them to not emphasize that, IMO...
My recommendation for this particular September 2012 "004" update:
If you run Software Update, and if you see the "Security Update 2012-004" listed as available for download, UNCHECKMARK IT. DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT USING SOFTWARE UPDATE ! Instead, download the actual update file itself.
Same thing, only a different way of doing it. Most importantly, you'll be skipping the auto-installation that Software Update performs.
AND you'll have that update file on your HDD for future fixits, should a nasty "unfixable" problem come up.
First, #1. Do a filename search for "Mail" (Option-Command-Spacebar). Scroll down to where the "Apps" are located in the list under the "Kind" column heading. First, find your Mail.app that's v4.5. Get that bugger into your Applications folder if it's not already there. Next, Trash all other "Mail.app" apps you see in that same list that you may have elsewhere on your HDD.
#2. Go here: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
And download the actual "004" DMG update file: "SecUpd2012-004.dmg"
And of course, it's a biggie.... 270MB... so watching grass grow may be involved here if you've got a slow connection (go to a MacDonalds & do it, like I shoulda done).
3. After downloading, I'd recommend closing down all apps, emptying the Trash, and restarting.
Then, after restarting, run Disk Utility's "Repair Disk Permissions."
Then, doublecheck that the Mail.app version 4.5 is in your Applications folder.
THEN fire up & install "SecUpd2012-004.dmg."
Reboot.
After the reboot, your Mail.app version 4.5 in the Applications folder will have become Mail.app version 4.6 in the Applications folder, and all will be well again.
And you can dump that zipped-up "Username -> Library -> Mail" folder then, too.
Happy Mac'in!

I have to believe there is a better way...could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Oh, my version of Remote Desktop is 3.7.2

Error message with Software Update

Hi everyone. I'm getting the following error message when trying to download some items via Software Update:
"None of the checked updates could be saved. A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again."
This is for the following downloads:
iPhoto 7.1.4
iDVD 7.0.2
iMovie 7.1.4
Security Update 2008-005
Any ideas? I have no problems with Internet access at all. I'm running a new 24" Intel iMac 3.06 GHz with Mac OS 10.5.4
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Bruce

Hi baltwo.
I was able to manually download the iPhoto, iDVD and iMovie updates from the Apple website and install them with no problem.
After I downloaded the Security Update 2008-005 and tried to install it I get the following error message:
"You cannot install Security Update 2008-005 (Intel) on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
Is this why the other downloads were prevented? I've never had problems with Software Update before.

Since installing new software update, my iphone 4S no longer is recognized by itunes

I installed the new software update to my Windows PC and my iphone and now my iphone 4s is no longer recognized by itunes and I cannot sync. I already attempted unintalling itunes and reinstalling it - it didn't work.

Hello KatieJean123,
It sounds like your phone is not recognzied in iTunes anymore. I recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
Here is an overview of the troubleshooting to be done:
1. Update iTunes
2. Check the USB cable
3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
4. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
6. Check for third-party software conflicts
If the issue persists, try uninstalling iTunes and its associated apps with either of these two articles depending on your operating system version and its associated softwares:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
Or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Software for HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP is not currently available from the Software Update server.

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion, and found that I could no longer print to my HP CM1312nfi.
This is usually a problem with HP at every upgrade, but this time, they appear to have offloaded the driver download process to Apple.
My printer is connected wirelessly through a time capsule by IP address—the physical, not the virtual, e.g: 169.254.xx.xx instead of 10.0.1.x.
When I try to download the driver by bonjour or IP, I get the following error message:
Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
Is this truly a Software Update server error, and if so, any clue when it will be resolved?
I am able to print with the generic driver as of now, but fax and scan capabilites are gone. The add fax dialog lists no devices.
Scanning is not supported on my printer model with the Hewlett Packard Print 2.12 driver. Will support be forthcoming, or did Mountain Lion brick my scanner?
Thanks for your time and attention.

Of course, once I posted this, I tried again and downloaded the driver without issue.
My second question still stands, however:
Scanning is not supported on my printer model with the Hewlett Packard Print 2.12 driver. Will support be forthcoming, or did Mountain Lion brick my scanner?

Can't install printer driver: HP Color LaserJet 2605dn drivers "not currently available from the Software Update server"

I was having trouble printing to my HP Color LaserJet 2605dn from a Mac Pro running Mountain Lion, so I went to System Prefernces -> Print & Scan deleted it and atempted to re-add it. When I try add the printer I get this message:
Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?
After clicking Download & Install (the only option other than Cancel), I get this:
Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet 2605dn because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
What's the workaround when Mountain Lion can't find the driver?
Thanks!

The 2605dn has dual Network and USB connectivity. Which are you attempting to configure: Network or attached USB?
Printer on, and if networked, use a static IP address
Print & Scan
IP
Provide printer static IP address
Select Printer Software ... HP Color LaserJet 2605dn driver (not sure about that 2600 driver)
Add
Configure Driver under Options and Supplies
I have a 1994 HP Laserjet 4m Plus set up using these steps and the appropriate driver. I just added another network printer, using the same IP address, but using the above 2605dn driver without any issue other than complaint about a redundant IP address.
Hopefully, you have already sorted this out.

Macbook will not boot up after running Software Update (Couldn't fix it)

Hi there,
I also have been experiencing some problems after running Software Update (Security update + Java) a couple of days ago. Similarly to Jandaf (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9000023) I have only the gray start up screen + Apple logo + gear wheel constantly rotating. Based on the information provided in this forum I have tried some procedures which didn't solved my problem so far. Below I describe I have tried:
1) I have booted using the installation DVD and run the disk utility. When performing the First Aid/Verify Disk I found some errors ('Invalid node structure'). But I couldn't fix the problem using disk repair (same problem 'Invalid node structure' 'Volume check failed'.
2) I also tried to boot in single user mode (command + s) to run fsck -fy. It didn't work. I got the following message (last 4 lines):
CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: -s
CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: booting in single user .. do not match
Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCKeyboard" has no kernel dependency.
Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCEventDriver" has no kernel dependency.
3) When trying to boot in safe mode. I got a grey screen with the following message:
'You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the Restart button".
4) I also tried to 'Archieve & Instal'. Again no success. After reading the DVD the action is terminated because some errors (does not specify).
5) I also tried the 'German Medicine' (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8728797#8728797) (i.e. Connect the 'problematic MacBook' to my old G4 via firewire and reinstall the 2009-001 update). Again no success. The G4 cannot mount the MacBook hardrive.
I don't know what to do any more.
A) Can I resuscitate my old system? If yes how?
B) If not, can I at least save the data I have in my old HD?
C) Is it possible to format and reinstall the OS or is this this computer doomed?
Apologies for writing so many questions but I'm really freaking out!
Thank you.
B.

Due to my lack of knowledge I can't judge how bad this is. But I can tell you that every time I read the word bad in the log it scares the s*** out me.

10.5.8 Server Software Update Server and 10.6.4 clients getting error

I’m running Software Update Server on an Intel XServe 10.5.8 OS.
When I try to run software update from 10.6.4 client I get the following error:
+The Software Update Server (su.MYSERVERNAME.org) is not responding.+
+Check to make sure your network connection is operating normally. If there are no issues with your connection, contact your network administrator for assistance.+
In Workgroup Manager I’ve set up 3 groups: Tiger Clients, Leopard Clients, and Snow Leopard Clients.
In Workgroup manager I’ve set each groups SUS to the corresponding sucatalog.
Tiger Clients
'http://su.MYSERVERNAME.org:8088/index.sucatalog'
Leopard Clients
'http://su.biggerhammer.org:8088/index-leopard.merged-1.sucatalog'
Snow Leopard Clients
'http://su.MYSERVERNAME.org:8088/index-leopard-snowleopard.merged-1.sucatalog'
I’ve read multiple threads trying to sort this out.
I’ve set each group up according to the managed clients instructions in this article. I’m led to believe this should work with 10.5.8 as well.

Any ideas where this is going wrong?
Or are there any additional steps needed to tell the 10.5.8 server how to serve to 10.6.4 SU clients?
Thanks!

I have seen this behavior when trying to modify the default certificate. It will not allow the key length to changed from 1024 to 2048. However, when creating a completely new certificate I have never had this issue.
