E61, Updater says it's up to date, but it's not!

Hello, so I purchased a Nokia E61, unlocked, sim free, the code is: 0538289, this is the code everybody seems to have a problem with updating. As some of you know, the Updater believes the 1.06****** is up to date, but we all know there is a 2.****** available, why isn't this code supported, will it be temporary? should I go ahead and return the E61 from where I bought it?
I mean, I don't mind waiting a month or so as long as I can start updating like EVERYONE ELSE, but if Nokia won't let me update this phone for good, then I don't want it, can ANYBODY please shed some light...
Thank you

are you sure Ray? I just need to be sure it will eventually come out, and not be stuck with this Firmware forever, so everybody can confirm this is a legit code phone? It's not something that was bought from a service provider and re-flashed?
The code is legitimate, as for Nokia releasing v2.x for it, I couldn't say as I do not know.

I read somewhere that's what some sellers do, they buy a leftover batch from providers, for example Orange, and then they re-flash the software to make it seem it's an unlocked phone, now when you wanna upgrade it, the updater says there is no update, because that code belongs to the batch of phones that Orange owns and they don't allow upgrades unless you do it through them, are we dealing with this case or are we safe?
This could happen and has happened before, however in 99% of the cases on this board are when people upgrade and they lose their language, usually their handset was from another market and the updater restored the original configuration. These handsets are usually bought in bulk from a cheaper market, modified then resold to the unsuspecting or people who don't want to pay the legitimate price.
First use the search to see if your question has already been answered...
Secondly I will not knowingly assist in breaking the forum rules.
My information is always changing, what I post at the time is usually true.

  • Apple Software Update says I'm up-to-date but I'm not.

    Over the summer I downloaded a beta of an iTunes program for Mac. Eventually that program expired so I needed to download the real iTunes. I did, and it was fine up until about a week ago. I was told that I needed to update my iTunes. I said, yes, Download the new iTunes but Apple Software Update says i'm up to date! I think it's because I don't have my original iTunes anymore? How can I make it so that it recogznies my application again? Also, my screensaver for iTunes Album Art claims it can't find my library now? What should I do?

    "Download the new iTunes but Apple Software Update says i'm up to date!"
    And?
    You downloaded the newest iTunes so you are up to date.

  • When I launch Firefox, Adobe Update says Reader is out of date, but it is not.

    I don't even use the Adobe Reader plugin, since, on a Mac, it doesn't work anyway. I use Firefox PDF Plugin, instead. But, when I launch Firefox, Adobe Update launches and tells me that Adobe Reader is out of date. When I launch Adobe Reader and check for updates, it says that it's up to date. I wouldn't care if it just happened once, but it continues to happen, at least once a day. It's very annoying. How do I get it to stop, since it's wrong, anyway?
    Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Firefox 3.6.13 (Adobe Reader plugin not installed)
    Firefox PDF Plugin 1.1.3
    Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    There seems to be a SEVERE lack of information on this issue and evidently no one is doing anything about it.
    The available info simply leads you in circles.

  • My ipod says it's up to date, but it's not and I can't update/restore

    Itunes updated to 7.0.2 and I can load up my own CDs onto my ipod nano. I can buy new tunes on the internet and they load into my itunes library but the purchased tunes don't load onto my ipod - I keep getting a error message that my ipod software is out of date. I've tried uninstalling itunes but keep having the same problem. My ipod preferences page tells me I have software version 5.1 on the ipod. I can see the buttons for update/restore, but this whole section is grayed out and the buttons don't work. What can I do?

    When you come back, try this.
    Click on control panel/admin tools/computer management/disk management/right click on the iPod to re-assign the drive letter.
    Choose something lower down the alphabet, say 'M' or something similar.
    The iPod can be confused by any other storage devices assigned a similar drive letter even though they may not connected at the same time.
    If the device manager is empty, see this: iPod not appearing in Windows device manager.
    It's a long shot but worth a try.

  • How to update Photoshop CC?  C Cloud says I'm up to date -- but I'm not!

    Creative Cloud says all apps are up to date.  But Photoshop CC is only version 14.0, not 14.2. 
    In PS if I check for updates, Adobe Application Manager says all apps are up-to-date.
    Online chat help today had me reinstall Adobe Application Manager and Creative Cloud.  Did not help.
    Running on Windows 8.1 Update 1.
    How can I get Photoshop CC to update??

    Mylenium,
    Following a suggestion on the Creative Cloud forum ( leading to this: CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed ) I uninstalled Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC, then installed Adobe Application Manager and Creative Cloud.  From Creative Cloud installed PS CC.  It worked, now up to date.
    Luckily I did not have to go the whole CC Cleaner route, however,  it's good to know it's there just in case.
    Thanks for helping,
    Mark

  • My itunes says it's up to date, but it is not. If I download the new one will I loose all my stuff?

    I got the I-phone 5, and when I went to sync it, it said I couldn't because I didn't have Itunes 11.  I have 10.6.3, and it says its up to date.   It said to download it, but I don't want to loose all my music and movies.  How can I do that?

    The issue is that the current iTunes (11.0.4) requires at least OS X version 10.6.8 to run.
    You must update your OS X first, then update your iTunes.
    Note that OS X version 10.6 (Snow Leopard) is now two years old.  So I strongly suggest that you move to Lion (OS X 10.7) or Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) if your machine will support it.  Either of these upgrades will cost a bit.

  • Adobe Application Manager says InDesign is up to date, but it's not installed?

    I had a trial version of InDesign and Illustrator, and the application manager insists that both are up to date, so I cannot install them. However, neither of these programs are installed on my computer anymore. How can I fix this?
    Thank you!

    Did you run the uninstallers for InDesign and Illustrator? Just deleting or dragging the applications to the Trash will not remove them.
    On Windows uninstall from the Control Panel. On Mac OS X uninstall from Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers.
    If you have uninstalled then run the Adobe Cleaner Tool which you can download from here http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html. Have it just cleanup InDesign and Illustrator.

  • When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP iCal via WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete"

    When I try to sync my iPod iCal with my MBP (OS 10.7) iCal via iTunes and WiFi I get a message saying "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" but I am connected to a local network and thus the syncing does not complete because the downloading never completes because I am not connected to the internet.
    Why does syncing iCal need Safari Safe Browsing Data?  How can I turn this off?

    See:
    iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi Syncing
    "Safari Downloading Safe Browsing Data" is just some data that is synce with the computer. To turn off on the Mac go to System Preferencs>iCloud and turn off Safari

  • TS1702 When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

    When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

    What you are getting is the AppleID (AppleID can be an email adress) used at the time of the purchase of this app.  It is an identifiant allowing Apple to link your purchase to your account.
    If you want to manage associated email, you can go at https://appleid.apple.com but the AppleID could never be modified.  
    I do not know if in your case, it is just that you no longer use your old email address or that you actually a 2 AppleID.  In any case, you will have to remember the password related to the account used for your purchase.  If you don't, just use the link above to try to retreive your password.

  • Cloud manager says "up to date" but it's not

    I just signed up for the cloud and intalled already InDesign. Now I wanted to install Photoshop but the App Manager says "Up to date" -BUT IT'S NOT!
    I just have CS5 and it wasn't a problem with the inDesign app... So what can I do?

    Ok.
    In case of Mac please go to Utilities--> Adobe Installers--> search for Photoshop uninstaller and run it.
    This should fix the situation for you.
    If this do not resolve the issue then you need to consider doing a system cleaner using Cs Cleaner tool from http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

  • HT1766 I want to update to IOS 5, it says I have to backup first, but I do not see how to do that

    I want to update to IOS 5, it says I have to backup first, but I do not see how to do that

    If you connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes you can force a backup of it by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
    Before starting the update you should copy any purchases off it to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    A first gen iPad will be updated to iOS 5.1.1
