Firefox 3.6.3 and Ovi Maps Plug-In compatibility

Hello everybody. I have a new problem since yesterday and I sure could use some help. My problem is that suddenly (since yesterday) when I open the Ovi Maps site (http://maps.ovi.com/) I don't see the map surface anymore, I just see a white surface!!! Everything else is in place. I can zoom in and out of this white surface I can even change to 3D and the blue sky on top appears but no map. Needless to say the same goes for satelite or any other option. No map appears. If I reload the page the map appears for a second and disappears immediately. When I deactivate the ovi maps plug-in (4.0.12.12), the map reappears and stays. I even tried to unistall it and reinstall it but the same thing happens, NO map visible. When I reinstalled it, it said that the plug-in is not compatible with firefox 3.6.3. The strange thing is that I didn't updated my firefox since yesterday,  it just started to happen suddenly. I couldn't find anything like that elsewhere on the web so this place is my last hope. Has anyone had a similar experience or even better a possible solution? By the way I have windows 7 but I can't imagine a reason for this being relevant since it work just fine until yesterday. I thank everyone for his hint/idea/solution in advance.

Use Internet Explorer. I used to use ovi maps on firefox as well until FF suddenly updated itself. It works ok on IE.

  • Problem install ovi store and ovi maps?

    my phone nokia C7 can not turn on, then I use a three finger salute to hard reset, and my phone can turn on again, but social networking application, ovi store and ovi maps are lost, I tried installing again, but always "unable to install", while applications else could, what happened? what should I do? I want to install it again.

    Unfortunately that is one of the outstanding issues with the current firmware in the N8, E7 and C7. The hard reset does not reinstall Qt which is required for the apps you mentions. See this.
    /t5/Nseries-and-S60-Smartphones/N8-Maps-problem-after-hard-reset/td-p/783327
    Although it is possible to reinstall Qt, the process is highly complicated and should only be atempted by expert users. My suggestion would be to either get your phone reflashed at your local Nokia Care Point or to wait for the next firmware up[date which will hopefully include a fix for this.

  • E52 and Ovi maps 3.04 long gps waiting time

    Hello
    After upgrading to newest 3.04 I noticed that internal gps needs much more time to find satellites.
    I have checked "internal gps" method only. After downgrading to 3.03 it works much faster

    I think that you will find that your 5230 has OVI Maps v3.03_10wk10_b02 pre-installed in device firmware, so that if you remove v3.04_2010wk32_b03 you will revert to previous version.
    It has been commented that upon 5230 v3.03 seemed to lock on to position faster and has satellite reception icon which is missing from v3.04 onwards. One of the main benefits of v3.04 was the additional positioning method WiFi/Network introduced which can have quite marked results especially upon devices WLAN equipped which unfortunately your 5230 is not.
    OVI Maps v3.06 which utilises a newer set of maps is probably quite near to general release and for some users in certain regions this maybe quite beneficial.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Nokia's solution to update maps is exclusively using OVI Suite.
    Ovi Suite is a tremendous piece of software: never checked before any release, always buggy.
    You are lucky if you do not need maps because PC Suite is reliable.
    You are cursed if you need maps...
    Any upgrade of maps ends up in problems!
    Today if failed again, I am used to it....
    I will stop any use of this Nokia's E72 (it is their product, not mine) as soon as my contract with my provider will end!
    My today's provider will also be punished by seeing me away definitively at the same time. And I will get away as many people as possible from Nokia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I hate this product and this company: They are not concerned by their customers, they are just good at taking the money and run away.
    That's Ok for me, you will be out of this market within 3 years with such an irrespect of your customers. -10% of market share / year is 0% in 3 years from now on. And, yes, it is too late: You did it again with the N8 (read above)!
    Have a nice day!

  • Ovi Maps 3.04 and favourites

    Hello.
    I have a Nokia 5230 (RM-588) with firmware 20.0.005 and Ovi Maps 3.04. Memory card is Kingston 8GB. I downloaded maps that I needed and everything is working OK from that point.
    Here is the problem: I search for an address (offline), Ovi Maps finds it, I rename it and save it to Favourites. I repeat that with some other addresses. Then I turn off the Ovi Maps and navigation and after I start it again, my folder Favourites - Places is empty. Any idea why the Favourites are not saved ? Thank you very much for the help.
    Solved!

    Hi Mathias35
    I don't know whether you have accessed http://maps.ovi.com/?p=1 and tried creating a "Favourite" there and then synchronizing 5230 with OVI to see if this stays in place on your device, because it should at least be in the correct place.

  • N97 how to remove ovi maps to get memory free

    My phone always says not enough memory.
    Because the OVI maps cost a lot of money when i am outside my country even when i use offline.
    I decided to remove ovi maps complete to to get memory free.
    So first i removed NOKIA MAPS and OVI Maps Wi-Fi/Network from application manager , installed maps.
    But unfortunately OVI Maps is still on my phone.
    So I tried to remove it from the menu with Optione Organize. But the delete will not show up.
    Can anyone help so i get some memory free ?
    With Kind Regards,

    Whats the real issue ? Do you want to regain Memory really or ONLY because OVI Maps cost lot of money (???) . Because with proper settings OVI Maps will be totally FREE anywhere in the world.. Refer this ..
    Maps should be pre-installed and set to Offline mode. Use only Integrated GPS Positioning method... and there should not be any cost incurred...

  • [INFO TIPS] How to survive with Ovi Maps 3.0 insta...

    Quick info tips. I wanna made this post earlier but I was on few days trip so didn't have a chance... but it's good coz I was tested GPS in real touristic environment.
    I'm from Europe so I don't know how all links posted below will be works for people outside Europe. 
    My hardware: E63 with latest firmware + external GPS module LD-4W
    Everything what we do here, we do with phone connected to the PC via USB cable in PC Suite mode and with fully battery charged.
    If you have Maps 2.0, everything works well for you and you payed for any of licences - better stay with that version and don't touch Ovi Maps 3.0. Waste of time and nerves. 
    1. Please make phone data backup in PC Suite. Please make data backup of your memory card.
    2. Check if you have firmware upgrade for your phone (click on some icon in PC Suite). But if you have cracked Symbian and you using cracked software better stay away from firmware upgrade. There's new cracking method for newest firmwares, ask Google. I don't use it, I'm clean. If you have new firmware - update the phone.
    3. Download MapLoader - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/down​load-maps/map-loader Do fresh install or update old MapLoader
    4. Bluetooth MUST BE turn in phone. Why? Ask Nokia. -_- Just kidding but unfortunately it's not funny. Without Bluetooth Ovi Maps 3.0 installed in next step (6.) is crazy as hell. Application is completly unusable, skipping, switching... one big hell on the screen. I don't know how it looks like in phones with build in GPS module.   
    5. Download Ovi Maps 3.0 - http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/down​load-maps and update with this installer old Maps 2.0 in the phone.
    6. Run Ovi Maps 3.0 and allow to download via Internet connection in your phone (wifi, gsm, 3g) some portion of initial data - 300 or 400kB - something like that, up to 1MB maximum then disconnect from Internet. It's needed to save some file (I don't remember name) and make structure of catalogues on memory card.
    7. Leave Ovi Maps 3.0 and run MapLoader. This application is one big pain in **bleep**. Sometimes doesn't see your phone, sometimes doesn't recognize correctly your memory card size (when you are finished downloading your map/s data that stupid soft can say to you "you don't have" or something like that)... horrible! If something goes wrong - try restart your PC and phone then connect again via USB cable - still in PC Suite mode.
    8. When luckily you have maps on your phone, try to pair your phone with your GPS module via Bluetooth or turn on build in module in other models (I think it works like that?).
    9. When you will be look out for licence for walk navigation... you cannot find it. You can see only your region name (in my case it was Europe) and you have an option to buy... licenses for drivers. ROTFL!  Licence for walk navigation is "hidden option". You must go here - http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/p​roduct-support/maps-support/how-to/how-to--use-map​... - it's mini FAQ how to obtain it.
    What I see, there's NO MORE free trial licenses in Maps v3.0 You must pay from day one. I buyed that licence for walk navigation for 10,12E (10 euro 12 euro cents) and it's not time restricted - looks like lifetime, ofc for the phone that you use (I think). Other licenses (for drivers) are time restricted (30 days and up as I remember).
    Everything works fine for me. I was over 220km away from my hometown in awesome town Wrocław and Ovi Maps 3.0 helps me A LOT with navigation and searching for monuments in this town.

    NOKIA IN USE: N8

    Ad. 1) "...Please make data backup of your memory card."
    Because maybe you must be format memory card for proper maps installation (instead upgrade from Ovi Maps 3.0 installation level old installed maps from v2.0).

  • Ovi Maps/N8/CK200

    Hi Guys,  Im having problems with the voice guidance on the N8. I have the CK200 car  Kit and set it to play all sounds. The phone connects and everything comes through the audio system except the voice guidance.I have searched all setting on the N8 and cannot find any way of switching voice guidance on or off when connected to carkit. Any one any ideas.

    I noticed that too.
    When I first used BT with my N8 and Ovi map guidance, it worked, but the sound came through the handset and headset simultaniously.
    Since then, I get nothing through the headset like I used to, only through the phone.
    It was really handy to be in a car full of people and only you hear the guidance as maybe everyone is talking or listening to music.
    I use a SONY HBH-PV705 headset which worked fine with my N79.

  • C6 Ovi Maps/Navi works, connecting to Nokia Accoun...

    Greetings,
    The location sharing feature seems really cool and I'd like to use it with my new Nokia C6. Ovi Maps and navigation works fine for me, however it will not login my Nokia Account. That whole menu is quite buggy actually. It does not "forget my account" either, but if I click it then restart my Nokia, I can re-add my login details... then it attempts to login, but nothing happens. I left my phone to try and login all night, in the morning it still said "Connecting to Nokia Accounts.." and if I cancel it, i will have to click "forget account" and reboot nokia again to make it reappear. Several attempts didn't work though.
    I've updated to both latest Symbian version and Ovi Maps.
    Is there another Nokia Approved App that would let me share my location? (as often and automatic as possible)
    Thanks in Advance

    I re-installed the phone's firmware and this has fixed the bug!

  • Dissatisfied N97/Ovi Maps owners - tell Nokia what...

    I just noticed that Nokia is running an online survey about Ovi Maps:
    http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps
    I have used the opportunity to tell them how lousy the N97 and Ovi Maps 3 combination is.  I hope that all other members of this forum who are dissatisfied will also complete the survey so that Nokia might get the message that something needs to be done!

    Three things,One  maps always opens on the last location you had it opened, and finds current location once it gets a gps lock, Two if you haven't dowloaded and pre-installed maps on the phone ( the ones the application reads to navigate) with Nokia Map Loader then it will have to download them 'on the 'fly' which will use a lot of data and slow everything considerably. Last if you only just got the phone, it probably doesn't have Maps3.03 which tends to function much better. Worth checking for software updates both with the software updater on the phone OTA and with Ovi Suite on PC !
    Good Luck

  • Please improve Ovi Maps

    I recently installed Sygic on my N8. It's soooo much better than Ovi Maps.
    Ovi Maps is constantly telling me 'route is being recalculated' (in Dutch) ... and it's telling my to turn around in the middle of a highway (Dutch A2/E25) or doesn't understand i;m driving under a 'highway crossing bridge' instead of on it.
    It's hard to explain, but Sygic is giving me a relaxed and reliable driving experience and Ovi Maps irritates me and **bleep** me off.
    This should be the other way around, because there is so much potention in Ovi Maps. So please .. improve it's navigation engine !!

  • N8 ovi map update

    How to download the new ovi map version 3.6.688 from the ovi store and replace the pre-existing ovi map version 0.2.43.117 in nokia n8?

    @butterdada
    Welcome to the forum!
    There appears to be slight confusion here as 0.2.43.117 refers to the latest map data available for use by Ovi Maps v3.06,7 & 8 Beta and Ovi Maps v3.06(688) is the latest version of application available if you discount version at Nokia Beta Labs.
    Have you updated N8 to Anna as I seem to remember that version delivered in Anna Updates (1) or (2) maybe slightly earlier version?

  • OVI Maps has stopped working

    I bought the E71 about a month ago and OVI maps worked fine until a few days ago. When I start Maps it finds my current location. I then search for a location and it gives me the option I require. I then select 'Drive to' which is where it goes wrong. It then hangs saying 'Waiting for GPS' Initially a screen popped up asking me to accept and 'drive and walk to' licence and give options to purchase an annual licence, etc. Now it doesn't even do this..
    Version 2
    I'm in a good coverage area with strong signal.

    It seems to me like you are still using V2 and you don't have a navigation license. Did you realise that an update with free navigation is actually available for the E71. Use the link below, select your phone, download and install. This should fix the fault as well.
