How do I download maps to N900

Can someone tell me how to download maps to the N900. Please don't tell me the only way to use maps is over a wifi or packet connection! That would make it unfeasible to use when on holday because of data costs!
Also is anyone else struggling to get a gps signal?
Also when are we going to get turn by turn guidance.
Beginning to think I've been sold a big waste of money!!

1) Use the Nokia maps loader:

You must connect your phone in mass storage mode
2) Actually the GPS is the best I've ever seen on a phone.. I can get a lock in seconds.. its rediculously quick
3) I wouldn't be surprised if we never get an updated Maemo maps. Sygic however produce an alternative product that is really quite good.. it isn't cheap (or free TV adverts keep telling me Nokia maps is.. pffft)

How to find downloaded maps?

Hello there,
After a bit of trouble I finally got the Nokia Map Loader to work and downloaded a map of British Columbia to my 6220c phone.
At least I thought I did but I can't seem to find this map anywhere. I've tried a few times, deleting the data and then downloading a map but I still can't seem to find it in Nokia Maps on the phone?

Hi misterfusty
Nokia Maps stores data in E:\Cities
Have you downloaded with a view to travel or this is your present location so you can try zooming in?

6220 classic, downloading maps

According to the manual (among other places) One should be able to download maps to the 6220 classic, from the website http://maps.nokia.com. On this page you are informed that "ovi-maps" does not support 6220 classic.
So OK, but how do I download maps to the 6220 classic then.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Assuming that you have latest version of OVI Maps for your device installed from here:
http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-download?intc=ncomsup...
You need to run OVI Maps application on your 6220 Classic with memory card in place to initialise and define folder structure needed by OVI Suite > Maps on your PC to allow download of regional maps.

5. No directory created on my memory card? I can't find it on my memory card? so how do i access it
So how do I download maps, can't figure out the problem.
Sonali

you do not really need to see where the maps are stored to use it
You use the map function and as you browse an area you have downloaded you get detail
You save or delete maps with the nokia map update prog on the PC while your phone is conected to the pc in mass storage mode or the MMC card is plugged in your PC
You map data is stored in memcard hidden folder private and one of the folders there while my card is in the pc slot the path would be Computer G:/private/and then maybe 102ff I cant remember which exact folder in the private it is
You need your browser set to see hidden files
Cities will hold the VOICE you downloaded for the navigation it will be empty UNTILL you 1st set the voice or download the voice
You do not have to say change from map of sweeden to map of finland you just browse or SEARCH for you destination and if you have it downloaded it works
YOU DO NOT see the different maps

How do I retrieve the icons in the download map of my 2009 iMac with Maverick. They show up in the finder, but not when I open downloads from the dock.

I have a 2009 iMac running on Mavericks. Since a few days, when I open the Download Map from the dock, I only see "empty" icon symbols. When I leave the map open the icons re-appear after some 20 seconds. When I re-open the downloads, the icons are empty again.
How do I get the icons to behave in a normal way again?

bro I just had this issue its as simple as swiping to the right of each album artwork that does not display in the list view (On your Iphone.) Once you swipe to the right on every album that does not display in the list view you will see the delete option come up. Hit delete! Dont be scared. Do this with every album art that does not show up and then resync your Iphone. Go to the list view again and all of your missing album artwork will be displayed in both the list overview and close up landscape mode.

How do you download a complete map of UK to the N9...

Greetings,
I have just purchased an N95 and it came with a 4gig card upgrade. I want to use the GPS mapping system but although it works it seems only to have the detailed maps (street names etc) for a small area. If I select a different area of the country eg by postcode large scale map is there but no detail. If I let it it then connects to the internet and downloads that bit of the map. This is not a problem when I am at home as it connects via my local wireless network - on the move it could get very expensive.
I have already been to the Nokia site and downloaded and installed Maps v2 but it is only about 3.5 Mbytes while my TomTom 5 map is nearer 100Mbytes. How do I download the whole of the UK map to my Nokia in one go??????
cheers
tigger

Nokia's Map Loader sometimes drops your maps into the wrong folder.
On most phones the maps are in:
[memory card]\cities\diskcache\,
but on the N95 they're in:
\Private\20001f63\diskcache\.
Check if your phone has both folders. The \Private\20001f63\diskcache\ folder is hidden, so you'll need a program like ActiveFile or X-Plore to see it.
Try to install a map from http://nokiamaps.moo.no into one folder, and a different map into the other folder, and then check where your copy of Nokia Maps looks for maps.

How can I download UK map data in advance over Wifi

I need to be able to download UK map data in Apple maps, for cycling navigation. How can I achieve this? Thanks

You can't.
Use an alternative navigation app from the AppStore that works without a data connection and downloads map data in advance.

I'm on my iPad, so I don't know if this is the page with an actual download. I don't see a button, but assume that is because I am on an iPad. It is in the DL section of Apple downloads.

How often/when download/update maps from OVI?

How often are OVI-maps updated? If I pre-load a country to my phone (OVI maps beta 3.06) do I need to manually re-download it to get ofline-mapdata-updates, and in that case, how do I know when I need to do that?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I sync my phone at least once a week with Ovi Suite, whenever you do this it will tell you that new software /maps are available, you are not going to get maps updated that often, three to four times maybe, unless the actual application itself is updated to a version requiring map data to be changed due to compatibility issues !

I'm trying to download maps of the ranch but its taking forever for it to complete. says its enhancing map detail. how long is this going to take????? I need these maps up for work.

I require google maps of the porperty we manage to do my job I purchased the ifarmer app to help organize and keep better track of details in equipment logs and cattle records. I'm trying to download maps of the property and its taking forever. it says it is "enhancing map detail" but its taken so long the ipod falls asleep and I don't know if that makes it take longer. I also can't do anything else on the ipod until it is done downloading. Is the amount of time its taking to download this map normal????

Great
Ok so this is what you need to do:
You need to put it in DFU mode:
How to enter iPhone DFU mode
Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
When you are in DFU mode your iPhone Screen will be completely black
Even though the screen is black, that doesn’t mean the device can’t be interfaced with either iTunes or a custom firmware client (for jailbreaking, etc).
Remember that if you see the restore logo, itunes logo or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode. Again, DFU mode is signified by having a completely black screen on the device. If anything else is the case, repeat the steps above until you enter into DFU mode successfully.
Now you can restore - once restore is completed the Exit DFU mode
Exit DFU mode on iPhone
The simplest way to exit out of DFU mode is to hold down the Home and sleep/power buttons on the iPhone while connected to iTunes. Then just hit the power button as and this should reboot the device as usual.

Help On How To Download Maps to N95?

Hi, I've bought a Nokia N95 and am trying to download maps from the website but I'm getting lost.
Can anyone give me advice or a step-by-step guide on what to do?
I have tried looking for help but the problem's still there?
Many thanks.
Peter

Hi peterandpeter
Firstly is version of Nokia Maps installed on your N95 the latest? Do you have three yellow or green symbols next to satellite rather than just satellite icon bottom right of screen?
Insert a microSD memory card into N95 and run Nokia Maps application. Enable an "active connection" either by WLAN or Network (remember to change settings to "never" afterwards if you don't want to incur data charges) and use [*] to zoom down to your position. Now exit application and folder structure required by Maploader application will be created on memory card.
It is now simpler to insert your microSD into card reader on PC when you requested by Maploader and it will allow you to proceed to download maps and/or voices as required.
You can also leave microSD in your N95 but it then needs to be used in "Data transfer" mode as a USB mass storage device not left in default "PC Suite" mode.
Hope this helps you.

How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe?

How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe via FME and have oracle spatial draw the map without problems?
So far I've got to the stage where I can import the data, spatially index it (in oracle 9i) and get my SVG (scaleable vector graphics) application to view the map.
The problem is that countries that have more than one polygon (more than one row in the database) do not draw properly.
When I view the Map Info tab file in the FME viewer I can see that the data is fine, but I can also see that some of the polygons used to draw a country are donugts and some aren't.
This seems to cause a problem when I import the data into oracle spatial as I don't know if a row in the table needs to be inserted as an independent SDO_GEOMETRY or if it should form part of a larger SDO_GEOMETRY (as in 2 or more rows make up the polygon shape for a country).
I have a feeling that I'm not using FME correctly, because at the moment I have to import the tab file into Oracle then re-insert the data into a spatially formatted table (one with a spatial index) - I get the impression that FME should do that for me but as I'm new to this I don't really know.
Any Help welcome :|
Tim

Tim,
MapInfo has a free utility called EasyLoader that allows you to upload a table directly to Oracle. EasyLoader creates the geometries and spatial index. You can download it free from http://www.mapinfo.com/products/download.cfm?ProductID=1044

How to schedle the mapping in OWB?

Can any please provide me link to see the steps to schedule the OWB mapping. My version is 11.1.0.7.0. The mapping is developed
by some one. Now i need to take responsibility on this. I need to know how to schedule the mapping.I want to run this every day mighnight.
In project explorer, I went into schedules. Then i created the schedule. After that, i am not sure, how to link the mapping on this scheduler.
any help is highly appreciated.
thanks.

Hi ,
Do you have metalink or my oracle support access ?
If yes then check Note 444877.1 for OWB mapping or process flow scheduling .
1. Verify the mapping or process flow completes successfully.
2. Navigate to the Schedules node in the Design Center Console and create a new Schedules module
called MY_SCHEDULES. For the location, select your TARGET_LOCATION, as the schedule will be deployed to the database.
3. Create a new schedule, TEST_SCH, with time greater than current database machine time (server where the job executes).
4. Associate your schedule with the mapping or process flow. Right click the mapping or process flow and select the option "Configure" and "set Referred Calendar" to TEST_SCH.
5. In the Control Center Manager, navigate to your TARGET_LOCATION and note the Scheduled Job TEST_SCH_JOB under the Scheduled Jobs node. Deploy the job with action "Create".
Using SQLPlus logged into the database as the TARGET user, verify the user has a job TEST_SCH_JOB, in state DISABLED:
select job_name, state from user_scheduler_jobs;
6. Use the Schedule tab on the Control Center Jobs panel in the Control Center Manager to schedule
the job. Highlight, right click the job and from the pop-up menu select "start". Use the same query to check the current status:
select job_name, state from user_scheduler_jobs;
The above query will show whether the scheduled job is SCHEDULED, RUNNING or SUCCEEDED.
