The link for the Map Loader does not work for me. Turns out that it doesn't work in Firefox, only in IE.
Then after getting it workin, of course Nokia doesn't provide a map for Iceland
Down downloading it from the Smart2go website instead at www.smart2go.com

  • Best MMORPG for Iphone 3G and a question about gps maps

    Hi there,
    Could anyone tell me what are the best free and paid iphone 3G MMORPG games? And please tell me some positive and negative things in the games.
    I didn't know where i could ask this so, i came here to apple forum, because i have subsribed to internet on iphone today. This topic doesn't have anything illegal.
    Another thing, does anyone knows if using gps maps through 3g internet, spends a lot of internet trafic? today i've used gps maps for about 12km and it spend me 80kb of trafic. Is this possible? because someone told me that iphone gps spend a lot, but really lot internet trafic. I didn't used sattelite view.

    The sattelite view uses far more data, of course - because of the photography it has to download. But the regular map is still a bitmapped image that has to be updated. It's not a massive amount of data, but not insignificant either.

  • GPS Maps Outside of Phone Coverage when Traveling

    *Is there anyway to download maps for your destination using a computer and then onto the iphone before you go?*
    Most people need a map when they are traveling, not in their local area.
    To download maps using the limited 3G network coverage while traveling is EXPENSIVE.
    A lot of places just do not have 3G and using 2G to download maps on the fly is SLOW & EXPENSIVE.
    Many places interesting places in the world do not have any phone coverage at all.
    So how useful is the GPS function on the iphone if you are in an area where you cannot download a map.
    Is there anyway to download maps for your destination using a computer and then onto the iphone before you go?

    Perhaps you have not done much traveling. I have.
    I am also very experienced at reading all types of maps, including
    topographical maps on land and depth contour maps and so on at sea.
    So map reading is not the problem for me.
    Actually getting good maps, that are easy to use even from guide books is
    quite difficult. It is not really convenient to have to carry a heavy
    guidebook around every where. In some places the maps from guide books
    have inadequate or incorrect coverage. In Japan or China it can be difficult to
    come to grips with the calligraphy, sometimes there just aren't any road signs.
    So a GPS map device becomes are very useful piece of kit. Unfortunately as much as I like Mac stuff and wanted the iPhone for this purpose, it is in its current
    form not very useful for travelers.
    The Nokia maps can be preloaded (so at least you can avoid expensive download costs) but the coverage is quite limited. Samsung have a new 16+16Gb GPS phone that with pre-purchased GPS maps could do the job.
    Apple could fairly easily fix the iPhone GPS software so that you can preload all the Google maps for a country before you leave. After all you generally know where you are going. If Apple was to do this then I would get the iPhone
    but until then I will keep looking for a better solution.

  • How to use GPS Maps

    Hello Friends,
    I have bought a E66 phone recently, kindly inform me how do I use the GPS maps of Australia, please give a detailed instructions as I am a cave man when it comes to technology, thanks
    Ras

    Hi ras1
    Firstly was a microSD provided with your E66 which possibly could have regional maps pre-loaded but not necessarily?
    1) Assuming that you have an available microSD > 2GB inserted in E66, start Nokia Maps application which will create necessary folder structure on memory card required later. If you accept "Go-online at start up" and you have a GPRS data connection as your access point, you can zoom in and out using "+" and "#" keys and provided that bars beside satellite icon have changed from yellow > green you should see your location on map although map data may have to be downloaded if not present.
    2) You will need to download regional maps to your device using Nokia Maploader v2.0.2 application available here:
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4984199
    I am assuming that you have already downloaded Nokia PC Suite v7.0 from here: http://europe.nokia.com/pcsuite and not loaded version from CD provided with E66 which by now may be outdated.
    3) If you launch Nokia Maploader it instructs you to connect your device in default "PC Suite" mode (you should be prompted on connection if you have not altered default).
    If you get "Waiting for device" and nothing happens try connecting in "Data transfer" mode instead. You will see the various continents and need to click on to explode content.
    4) If you intend to purchase a "voice navigation" license for real-time navigation, you should also download either English(US) or English(UK) voice file as well as regional map. Without a "voice navigation" license you can see your position on map and plan journeys although map won't be orientated in direction of travel.

  • C5-00, Nokia Suite maps download problem

    I have Nokia C5-00 mobile with the most resent software installed and Win7 ultimate with Nokia Suite 3.6.36. When I start to load the maps of different countries and 2 or 3 of the maps are completed I always get the massage that first I have to connect my phone. And then if I reconnect my phone, or I can download one more map, or immediately I get the same massage to connect my phone. Sometimes during the download of a map before it’s completed I get this massage, and then no matter what I do, restarting the Nokia Suite or reconnecting my phone I cannot download this map anymore, I get immediately the massage to connect my phone. I don’t know if there is any possibility of downloading the maps on my computer and then manually copy them on my phone?

    @SzKSz
    It is possible to manually download map data and decompress the .zip files. Here are some links for latest 00.01.29.100 series of maps for use with your C5-00:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Map-Series-00-01-29-100/m-p/1639304/highligh...
    Let me know if you require a specific country/region/state and ovikovi has posted previously how to apply (16) folders 0 - 9 and a- f to their appropriate location in E:\cities. As I am essentially a  Mac user have posted quite widely on manual map installation upon this forum.

  • GPS Maps Auto-Rotator

    Is there an app to help this app out? It can get a little distracting moving my finger across my phone every 10 seconds to keep up with the blue dot on my map. I LOVE this feature, and all this app needs is an auto-rotator to make it perfect. Is there anything like this already out or coming out soon?

    Not that I'm aware of. There are no routing settings like there are in a dedicated auto turn-by-turn GPS. I see the iPhone GPS/Maps as a mapping program mostly useful for finding things around me and quick access to a map. It's not nearly as good as a dedicated GPS. Hopefully Apple will allow a good turn-by-turn app in the future.

    That sounds about right - I'm using about 240mb at the moment, and I've a few videos and about 100 images on the card, alongside maps of the UK.

    I'm not too sure either. I think it might be in a hidden directory on the card. You might be able to view it if you put the memory card into your computer.

    Yes, that's normal. If you move any of your images, videos etc from the phone memory to the memory card, they'll live in these folders. The phone is set by default to use the memory card for the camera, for example, so new pictures you take once the card is inserted will be added to these folders.

  • Offline GPS/maps

    Does anyone know of any really good offline GPS/maps for traveling to another country? I'll be heading to Rome, Spain, Monaco, Tunisia and Italy next week and Beijing, China in May and I really need some good apps that will help me with directions and places. I'll need an offline GPS for when driving (doesn't have to be that accurate because I know iPhone can't replace an actual GPS), and a map showing public transit system and major places in those countries; other features would be nice too. The app has to be offline because obviously there's no connection outside.
    Thanks!

    GPS access does not equal turn by turn directions. Turn by turn directions can be included with a GPS device, but if a GPS device does not include turn by turn directions does not mean it isn't an actual GPS device or does not have a GPS reciever. These are not one in the same. Firmware update 3.0 will support an app that provides turn by turn directions using the iPhone's GPS reciever with maps data stored locally on the iPhone.
    Unless you can find an app via the app store that includes the map data you will be needing, you will be out of luck.

  • Map download speed on N95

    I am installing 76 megs of maps with the Nokia map downloader
    and it is taking for ever, in fact just 14% in 3 hours...is this normal ??
    The phone is offline and connected by the USB cable with "mass storage selected" to my XP PC

    It's a true TOTAL disappointment that the download speed of OVI maps through a high-speed internet connection is absolute rubbish. I have NO CLUE how to communicate this abominable experience to Nokia. Downloading the 1.4Gb map of the USA is a matter of keeping my PC on through the night. The same file in any other file format or from another destination zaps in in approximately 5 minutes, barely gives me time to get a new cup of coffee! Nokia should understand that FREE maps become a TIME liability for me .... so Garmin might be a better alternative.

  • INADEQUATE information on NOKIA MAPS Download Site

    The information NOKIA gives about maps version in the Nokia Maps Download page of their web site is really poor: Nokia Maps 2.0 or 1.0, nothing more.
    Minimum details if they were more serious should be:
    1) Release date
    2) Release version
    and possibly:
    3) Tentative date for next update
    So people can decide if they need to update or not. As their site is now, it is not possible to know at a glance if maps are more recent then the one you already have.

    if your phone uses navteq go to there website and check the maps for yourself and see if there better than the ones you have.as for the rest you are correct

  • Why aren't there any English GPS maps for Japan?

    I mean, why? There are GPS maps for almost every developed country, but for Japan there are none that i know of (neither Navteq nor Teleatlas, which are the two major cartography companies out there).
    I've seen several Japanese GPS solutions, but they unfortunately don't have an English option. I've never seen a major company like TomTom or Garmin (among many others), offering a solution for that market.
    So, what company does the cartography out there (Navteq or Teleatlas like), and why doesn't TomTom or Garmin use their data in order to develop an English GPS solution? There has to be some kind of logical explanation.
    Kind Regards.

    Since this is the only way of getting navigation for Japan, Pakistan and Cyprus which Nokia have choosen to avoid providing for with Nokia Maps, presumably you would rather OP was left in ignorance of technical feasibility of it's use upon Symbian devices.

  • Photos integrated with GPS Maps

    With the Location settings enabled for your camera, can you send geotagged photos to other iPhone users as a way for them to get directions to your location?
    Let's say I needed directions to meet up with my friends. Is it possible for them to just take a picture of their location, send it to me, have the picture integrated into my GPS maps, and get directions to their location?
    Is this possible? Anyone know? If not, wouldn't that be a good idea? Would it be difficult?

    One of many ways would be to add this in the bookmarks in your gps maps. So far there are only 3 options to select
    1. Bookmarks
    2. Recents
    3. Contacts
    Can't they add "Geotagged Photos" or something to that extent?
    I know this isn't the place to do it.. So I won't entertain this much longer. I thought for sure our photos would be integrated with the GPS maps.
    Is there at least a specific social network application that closely resembles that? If so, which one?

  • Will gps mapping and email on my verizon iPhone 5 work in France?

    Will gps mapping and email on my verizon iPhone 5 work in France?

    Since the sim slot in all Verizon iPhone 5's is officially unlocked out of the gate, you can save a ton of money by NOT calling Verizon support & NOT enabling data roaming, All you have to do is purchase a local sim when you get to France.
    Do that & you can use all of the functions of your phone, cheaply.

  • Map Downloads

    Hi
    I am trying to download Nokia maps. The first time I tried the download was very slow and eventually crashed out. Subsequently when I launch the Map Downloader I get an "Unexpected Error" and the programme terminates. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Downloader but this makes no difference.
