File manager missing in Ovi suite

I just bought E7-00 after my E90 and I was really surprised that file manager was missing in Ovi suite. This means I cannot transfer single files between PC and mobile phone. Difficult to use backup copies are not enough. Fortunately file manager still exists in old familiar PC suite, which works with E7-00 in spite of that Nokia says it is not meant for this device. I consider it stupid that I have to jump between two suites. It takes much time in vain. I wait that the next version of Ovi suite works better. Please, don't say that file manager is not needed!

@thecat2
Could you please confirm what type of sms are not getting synced?
1. Operator SMS/ MMS?
2. sms from any particular numbers

Ovi Suite hangs on sync

Hello, I just bought a Nokia N8 and wanted to sync with Outlook. The first time it worked, but after removing the phone and reconnecting the sync hangs at different stages. Sometimes in the preparation stage "Synchronisation wird vorbereitet", sometimes during sync. There is no error message, why it hangs. After deinstalling and removing any phone specific drivers from device panel I reinstalled the Ovi suite. First sync worked, second not. In my opinion, regular reinstallation for every sync is no option. Any other ideas? Windows 7 pro 64 bit, Ovi suite 3.0.0.290, Outlook 2003.

Hi,
N8
Win7 x64
Ovi 3.0.0.290
I have exact same problem as OP.
I spent 4 hours this morning attempting to sync contacts, which I eventually managed to do.
I am now trying to sync Calendar & Tasks, but having no luck. Ovi always hangs with one of two possible status messages (both of which were originally described by OP).
Either:
...or...
I have tried all suggestions put forward by mahayv in this thread, up to and including deletion of the MDataStore.db3 file. BTW, deleting this file did not make Ovi Suite lose all contacts, messages etc., as mahayv indicated it would.
When Ovi hangs on Sync, and I attempt to cancel, it then hangs again with the following message:
After I then shut down Ovi, using File > Exit, both the program window and notification area green "Ovi" icon disappear, but two processes are still running (namely: NokiaOviSuite.exe and nokiaaserver.exe). These processes must be manually terminated before Ovi Suite can be successfully restarted. If I do not manually terminate these processes and try to restart Ovi Suite, then what happens is I get multiple copies of these processes appearing in task manager, but no Ovi Suite window will ever appear.
Bottom line: Ovi Suite is not behaving remotely as it should.
I have tried many possible solutions, suggested both here and in other threads and forums. These include:
Reinstalling Ovi Suite
Repairing Nokia connectivity cable driver
Reinstalling Nokia connectivity cable driver
"Repair Sync" option within Ovi Suite
Uninstalling ALL Nokia software and reinstalling
Restoring a C drive backup I took about a week ago (i.e. before all this started) thus giving me a "clean slate" from which to try again
I sincerely hope this issue is being taken seriously, as from my various net wanderings it looks like many people are having connectivity issues with Ovi Suite. FWIW, I get the impression that the common factor is Windows 7 x64.
As people have mentioned previously, Ovi Suite is a big let-down at the moment. I really like my N8, but the longer I am without calendar sync, the bigger a problem this is going to become.
Thanks mahayv for helping out so far - I really hope we can get to the bottom of this.

OVi Suite Album Artwork Problem

I have installed Ivi suite 3.0.0.250 and I am aslo running I,Tunes version 10 which stores all my music.. I have changed the music folder option in Ovi Suite to use the I.Tines folder and aslo instructed Ovi to watch the I tunes music folder for any new changes.
Whilst Ovi suite has detected and shows all the music from itunes it has not brought over all the album artwork. this appears to be completly random. There is (as far as i can see) no wayof adding the missing artwork in the ovi suite.The artwork shows perfectly in I Tunes and on my I Pod
I have deleted all 28000+ tracks once and tried again but it has made no difference.
I would like to use Ovi rather than itunes to create and sync a playlist to my Nokia C7, but will not do so whilst this problem persists.
I run windows xp, I Tunes Version 10 and Ovi suite 3.0.0.250

Hi, i have a C7 and when i downloaded music files to it using Ovi Suite none of the album art appeared on the phone. I replaced a N85 with this phone and on the N85 there is an option to replace the album art with any image.The C7 doesn't seem to have this option. Anyway after trying a few things i still could not get any artwork on the phone so i installed Ovi Player and used this program to download the music to the phone and it worked perfectly with all the proper artwork installed. You could try this program and seeing that you have a lot of music it might be better for you. All the best

File Manager unable to open, Windows error message...

When I try to open File Manager from Nokia PC Suite or Nokia Phone Browser in My Computer, a Windows error message suddenly appears and says "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close." I don't know what seems to be the problem. I've been using it for months and this is the only time I encountered a problem like this. How can I solve this problem?
I have the latest version of Nokia PC Suite (Version 6.85.12.0), my OS is Windows XP 2000, and I'm using a USB cable as a connector.
Please, I really do need to fix this one.

What's the difference between Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2....

Yesterday I updated to Ovi Suite 2.2.1.22 from 2.2.0.245 - Update crashes as usual with OVI suite (Error Message: Could not delete Service).
I had to uninstall all Nokia SW, reboot, install first the new Ovi Suite than PC Suite (I like a reliable Outlook Synchronisation, which OVI doesn't provide).
Just tried to define a Outlook folder to synchronize Outlook Notes: Just by accessing the Outlook file - Ovi crashes!
For what OVI suite is usefui? Delete all the Maps on my phone at once (which lasts several Hours) - Formatting the memory card is much more faster
Looking whether the is a ROM update for my N82 is available - It isn't.
PC Suite still works fine in synchronizing Outlook 2010 on Win7 x64. OVi suggests the same, but immediately crashes when just accessing a Outlook file.
Possibly in OVI Suite 5 this will work, about in the year 2025.
Where there is a technical documentation on the different versions of the OVI suite, where on the Nokia web I can find out, what release number is the current version?
I think, Nokia should do a better job!
Best Regards, Oblomow

Resistance thermometer wiring configurations:
Two-wire configuration
The simplest resistance thermometer configuration uses two wires. It is only used when high accuracy is not required as the resistance of the connecting wires is always included with that of the sensor leading to errors in the signal. This applies equally to balanced bridge and fixed bridge system.
Three-wire configuration
In order to minimize the effects of the lead resistances a three wire configuration can be used. Using this method the two leads to the sensor are on adjoining arms, there is a lead resistance in each arm of the bridge and therefore the lead resistance is cancelled out. High quality connection cables should be used for this type of configuration because an assumption is made that the two lead resistances are the same.
Four-wire configuration
The four wire resistance thermometer configuration even further increases the accuracy and reliability of the resistance being measured. In the diagram above a standard two terminal RTD is used with another pair of wires to form an additional loop that cancels out the lead resistance. The above Wheatstone bridge method uses a little more copper wire and is not a perfect solution. Below is a better alternative configuration four-wire Kelvin connection that should be used in all RTDs. It provides full cancellation of spurious effects and cable resistance of up to 15 Ω can be handled. Actually in four wire measurement the resistance error due to lead wire resistance is zero.

Transferring content to N97 (Ovi Suite 1.1.374)

I have tried to transfer my music and some videos to my new N97. With mostly success (and a large fraction of disappointment) but I have a couple questions.
Is it normal for it to take soo many hours to transfer like 1300 songs (average of 5mb per song)?
When the music has been transferred, Where will they shop up in the E: Mass Memory? (when you connect your phone to the computer, and go to mass memory mode). What folder(s)?
Is there any log file of the transfer log at all? (Other than the transfer history within Ovi suite)
When I transferred most of my stuff, 24 files failed, from within Ovi suite I haven't found out how to see 'what' files failed so I can transfer them separately (which I know would work).
And, Why is it that Ovi will transfer files that are already on the phone?
Is there some easy way to transfer new files without having to select them from the ever growing list in the gallery?
Please and thank you.

Why is there never any responses from Nokia about all the problems people have with their mp3 software. The N97 is my 1st and last Nokia phone, specifically because the music software is so bad, and they never address the issues. Every issue I have with it I found in these support discussions, mostly unanswered. The FM transmitter is cool, but really what good is it with out the music software?

Ovi Suite 2 always crash while inside "Photos"

I notice it does not crash immediately but always crash after I start to move scroll up/down button while insides the Photos thumbnail view. But it seems to be OK if I scroll up/down while OviSuite is displaying the thumbnails from the phone.
Setting the app to WinXP SP3 or Vista SP2 compatibility mode do not help at all. Same problem with or with the phone connected to the OviSuite.
Running Win7, 64bit version.

Ovi Suite 2.0 Music Album Art

Just installed Ovi Suite 2.0. I have been using Nokia Music for a while now to add music to my device. I have configured my songs so Nokia Music recognizes the albums perfectly. All I do is click transfer to device and bingo my phone displays everything I want.
The music tab in Ovi Suite seems to be lacking a lot. First, it does recocognize a lot of artist names and album names on my device. So, it just lumps them into an Unknown category. Nokia Music, however, recognizes and sorts them properly. Second, most of the album art is missing in Ovi Suite. When Ovi Suite looks at either my PC hard drive or my device, it does not recognize album art. Nokia Music, however, does recognize the album art. Third, most of the functions provided by Nokia Music, such as sorting by genre are gone.
Would Nokia please fix this?

Problem: No Synchronize since Ovi Suite 2.2.1.23 h...

Hello. I have a Problem: No Synchronize since Ovi Suite 2.2.1.23 has been installed.
The phone (XpressMusic 5800) is connected to the PC via Bluetooth or USB, I can enter to the messages / contacts / content etc. but no Synchronization can be made. Nothing happens even when I click on "Synchronize" on a part or "Synchronize All".
What can I do?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Lior.

Here's something worth trying:
Check if you have Contacts included in the Auto sync
* Tools > Options > Device Sync
* there is a check box under "Contacts".
* Uncheck the "Sync automatically ...."
* Click Ok
* Then from Menu "File" > Exit
Then start Ovi Suite again and try... any improvements?
Do you see in home the "Preparing to sync <contacts>" or any other indication that something might be happening?

Nokia Ovi Suite installation

How can I install the Nokia Ovi Suite to another hard drive than the standard "C" drive?

Hi, if you want to install Nokia Ovi Suite to for example D: drive, to directory "D:\Program files", you could start installation application from command line following way:
Nokia_Ovi_Suite_webinstaller_all.exe /TARGET="D:\Program files\NokiaOviSuite"
This would create a new folder "NokiaOviSuite" under D:\Program files\ and install Nokia Ovi Suite there.
Cheers, Samuli

Management of phone with OVI suite

How does one manage their phone using OVI Suite.Example adding / amending items to the calender which is available on PC Suite or manage files and folders?

I found the answer for my problem.
I've imported my contacts from my Palm Tungsten with vcards. In my Palm I used / as separator in my phone numbers. When I imported the contacts with Nokia PC Suite it copied the numbers with / character to my phone. And Ovi synchronized it with the same character.
But it seems that Ovi does not like the / character and if a phone number contains it it will delete the phonenumber from my E52. It has the numbers on my PC but not in my phone. After I've replaced all the / characters in Ovi suite with - character everything worked fine.

Some videos are semi-missing - they do not show up in File Manager apps or another app

I have what I will call three FILER apps: File Browser, Air Browser and File Commander. I also have MovieSRTPlayer. Those apps appear to not register the presence of some video files that I have definitely copied to my PB. The MovieSRTPlayer will overlay a .srt file's text over a video allowing the pb to show subtitles. It works as long as it can find the video and srt files.
I am definitely transferring a series of video files to the pb's video folder. I am also transferring a companion file to that folder. The companion file is a subtitle file in the form of an .SRT file.
THREE file manager type apps do NOT show those files as present in the video folder. The Video app itself does show and play those video files.
I have copied the files using both wifi-sharing and when they did not show up that way, I copied them using the usb cable to the pb's Z: drive and the video folder.
As stated the dam! files play in the video app. But they do not appear in the various filer apps. And they also do not show in another app, one that will display the subtitle (.srt file) file overlaying the video. In all instances it is as if the pb does not register the presence of those files on the pb.
Now, what is interesting is that when this first cropped up, 7 files were missing - just a mix of video (no .srt files involved). That is they showed in the video app and played but the filer programs did not show them. I managed last night and this morning to get 7 of those to finally show by copying/moving/deleting and recopying. But now I'm running into this brick wall again. I have repeatedly copied two video (avi files) and their companion .srt files to the video folder. They are in that folder (I've looked using usb and wifi-sharing) and they play in the PB's video app. They are most certainly on my pb.
Oh, and yes, I've rebooted a number of times.
Ideas?

I have what I call 3 file manager apps. File Browser, Air Browser and File Commander (the older free version).
They all show or don't show the same thing. So files are missing. And SIZE is not the sole determining factor. When I was testing MovieSRT and "lost" some files I copied and renamed avi and .srt files. So there are two extra .srt files in the Video folder. But while they are 32kb (kilobytes) and 58kb respectively, they do NOT show up in the File managers. The other two identical files with the names matching the .avi files do show up. The one very large mp4 (2gb) does not show up. A subfolder I created just as a test does not show up. But the large mp4 and subfolder were showing up while I was actively copying the 2gb file - they would show up as the file was being copied - the filemanagers showed the file getting larger and larger and while doing so the "missing" subfolder also kept showing up. Then once the large file was completely copied, both it and the subfolder "disappeared" - again, the large mp4 does show in the Video app and it plays.
My persistence probably is based on the fact I was a computer programmer many eons ago! Also, I was trying to get YOUR app to work and the avi files were not showing up in your listing but they were showing and playing in Video app (but no subtitles). Finally, after copying/moving/re-copying over and over including moving and copying to the PB's Print folder (just since it was empty) and copying it back to the video folder (now 2 copies), the files would finally show up. Peculiar - yup!
Oh, one other thing - the 3 file managers all show what I will call the virtual Playbook-Demo video in their listings - your app does NOT show it. Obviously, it is not located in the Video Folder but somewhere in the bowels of the PB. So, the filemanagers are relying on some "file structure" that is not fully correct. But your app does not appear to show it.
