How to install OVI Map navigation for N95

Ok, getting very frustrated with this now. I have given my dad my N95 to help him get around but just cant get the map navigation to work. I downloaded the Nokia Map Loader (I had to go to a third party website as the Nokia links were all broken) and have the map/voices but when my dad tries to use the navigation it tells him he has to pay.
Obviously, I know that Nokia have now made these services free to complete with other company's devices, I'm just being stupid and not going to the right place to download them. When i go to www.nokia.com/maps on the phone it doesnt do anything. I've been trying for over a day now and the phone has almost made contact with the wall a few times - sorry to be a numpty, but how do you install the OVI map navigation stuff on the N95! :-)

@Cowes67
Let's clear up any misunderstanding here, upon N95 there is no legititimate way of obtaining free voice navigation with version of Ovi Maps upon N95 as you would need to purchase a license!
You should run Ovi Maps application with a microSD inserted in N95 which will re-create necessary folder structure for Nokia Suite > Maps to recognise it.
Please note that standalone version of Nokia Maploader apart from version for Mac users ceased to be functional several years ago.
I still have N95 in use so post again if any further queries over this issue.

How to install ovi maps in N79

Hi, I tried map loader 3.0 but all it do is to download maps from internet to the phone, but what I am concerned about is updating the maps 2.0 application itself to 3.0. Any suggestions on how to do this.
I do not think I can uninstall maps using standard method as it is part of firmware?
Thanks

I'm actually having the same question but nokia maps updater is for updating maps, but what should i do in case if i uninstalled ovi maps from my device?
Let me first explain abit what i did and what didn't work for me:
I updated the original maps appilcation on n79 that came with firmware 11.049 through ovi suit application. then i decided to uninstall it and what i did is i removed it from add/remove system from the phone. i tried to open the old maps icon in the main menu it fails "can't open the following application. the newest version is under nokia.maps". i gave ovi maps updater a try but it fails to read data from my phone. so i searched over the internet for maps 2.0 .sis file and found it under the following link http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/Nokia_Maps_2.0_4503_3.1_u.sis then i opened it with ovi suit. the thing is that the installation ends successfully but when i try to open maps application again from the menu, i get the same error as before and the installed version isn't listed in add/remove menu. i tried to reinstall the firmware, but it didn't reinstall the original maps.
What should i do now? is the only way to format my phone and install the firmware again?

How to re-install ovi map in C7

Hi, I have just bought me a C7 nokia phone. I tried to update the voice map application from ovi store and then I can not see the maps on the phone. When I connect C7 to my PC and check the map by Nokia Ovi Suite, it said that the map is either corrupted or not supported by the device.
How can I re-install or recover my pre-installed ovi map in C7?
thanks.

I accessed WLAN to download a small area of map through my C7 device, after that put back on with PC OVI SUITE map successfully.
BTW I have not updated the OVI maps application through the C7 device.
You can also access OVI Maps application update here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-download#/nokia-c7-00...
You can then utilise "Update" feature within OVI Maps application to download mapping directly to device obviating need to use OVI Suite > Maps for this purpose!

OVI MAPS NAVIGATION EXPIRED

I am trying to renew my navigation licence for my N95 8GB. Keep getting "try later". Is there anything I should know - is OVI maps navigation still working for my old but totally reliable and much loved phone.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@bbao back in July 2014, Nokia created a FAQ article, stating the discontinuation of paid Nokia Maps licences. There was no reason given. Obviously, that statement was wrong in parts. With the end of HERE support through Nokia (now ‘Microsoft Mobile’), they removed that FAQ article. ‘Therefore’, this link is broken now.

Is it no longer an issue today?
Well, it is an issue in parts:

Please, do not even try! You are going to loose your lifetime licence for walking (City Explorer).

All you can do is to renew an already bought region licence.
You need to start a journey (‘drive there’). Then, when you have a GPS lock and after 30 seconds, only then, you are able to renew your navigation licence for driving.

Map Navigation on N95

I purchased map navigation for the N95 and have had licence number but navigation is not shown as an option in Maps?
Help

Guys,
I have been suffering from all the problems you mention in this forum. However, I have just found this link which is for the Maps 3.0 downloader. Seems to have a lot more features. Lets hope it has a few less bugs. Downloaded it, but it is taking rather a long time to install. It had to delete all old map data, as it is apparently not compatible with this new version.
Will let you know how it runs, eventually !!

How to install ovi suite to a drive other than C:?...

how to install ovi suite to a drive other than c:??? my c: drive is almost full with other partitions perfectly free to install it, how do i do that? can i use previous versions of ovi suite to use with my e63? at this point, i'm unable to use ovi suite at all, because there's no room to install it on my c: drive.
allllllllso there's one more thing, when i originally had tried installing ovi suite on my computer i had more than 1gb free. after installing it i on'ly had 500mb free. i had only intended for it to use a very small amount of space, and since i also use my c: drive for virtual memory i quickly uninstalled it, looking for an option i'd maybe skipped over while installing it the first time. no luck. anyways, when i looked in the add/remove programs control panel the installed size of ovi suite was only 40-50mb. even after uninstalling ovi suite the extra memory space that seemed to all of a sudden taken up by the installation stayed used.
when looking at the file sizes of everything on my hard drive, (including system files and paging file) there is still a descreprency between the amount of memory used and the size of all files total on the drive. at this point im quite disgusted and disapointed in ovi suite as i'm mostly unable to use it to connect my phone to my computer and i'm also having problems with the CA101 cable as well. i guess i'll have to go check for another cable.
nokia!!! wake up and fix yo **bleep**!!!!
anyone have any solutions for the main problem? (installing to a drive other than c? is there support for this option in any of the new beta versions? can that be included in the newest betas? i'm suuuuuure i'm not the only one begging for this option!!!

Hi ostrenga4, sorry to hear about your experiences.
When installing Nokia Ovi Suite to PC, Windows makes "system restoration points", which are available to restore operating system to previous condition, if something goes wrong, for example in driver installation.
You can change install location of Nokia Ovi Suite with following:
- Download Nokia Ovi Suite install package from Nokia Ovi Suite pages
- Start Windows Command prompt
- From Command prompt, navigate to folder containing Nokia Ovi Suite install package, which you downloaded
- Start Nokia Ovi Suite install package with command line "Nokia_Ovi_Suite_webinstaller.exe /TARGET="D:\TestDir\Test"
- This results, that Nokia Ovi Suite installer creates folder D:\TestDir\Test (if that doesn't exist) and installs Nokia Ovi Suite there.
- Unfortunately, Windows Installer still keeps installer cache files and system restoration points in C: drive (or whatever your system drive is)
As you can see, this is possible, but it is very much recommend to have enough space for installing software into system drive.
Cheers, Samuli

How to install Ovi Suite to the D drive?
The installer does not offer any options. -SS.
My C drive is full and there is not enough space for the humoungous Ovi suite. As a matter of my personal policy, I never install any application to my C drive. I have created a separate D partition expressly for installing applications.

My n8 ovi maps navigation - is Completley unreliab...

I was trying my new n8 ovi maps , navigating in Lithuania, before going on our family annual caravan summer trip.
This proved to be a catastrophe. The software is copleteley unreliable, and in fact , the worst navigation software I ever tried. Here are some of the issues:
1. Navigation uses unpaved roads as default choice , even if I choose "no" on preferences.
2. routs are often proven completely false, often misleading the user to dead ends or no road at all. This happens almost every time when traveling outside of the capital - Vilnius.
3. Browsing the map on chosen rout during navigation is quite difficult and not useful.
4. Addresses search is not practical , since it usually ask for exact address, and spelling mistakes are not recognized otherwise there are no results. This is very important when traveling abroad.
I was very disappointed , because the main reason I bought N8 , was of the promises for free navigation . We are planning to go on a trip within 2 weeks , and I don't know what to do.
is there any other good compatible navigation program ?
can you solve these problems?
are these problems confined to Lithuania only (hard to believe)?

Ovi map navigation crashes on E71

I have installed ovi maps on my E71. However, it crashes everytime within a minute of starting the navigation. Voice navigation will give the first instruction and then the E71 crashes to a dimmed white screen with the Nokia logo on it. The phone is not useable without a reboot. Any ideas?
JJOe

Presumably you have Nokia_maps_3.03_10wk11_b04_s60_3.1_rom.Nocs.sis
available from here installed? http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/maps-support/compatibility-and-download#/nokia-e71/
If you don't have this version with free voice navigation, it will crash without a license.
Otherwise try deleting E:\CITIES + .qf file, re-launch OVI Maps application on device to re-define necessary folder structure to utilise OVI Suite > Maps on your PC to re-download regional mapping.

Where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5 ?

Folks,
Hello. I am using Oracle Linux 5 and Oracle Database 11g for PIA.
Before install Oracle DB 11g into Oracle Linux 5, we need to install X Window System according to the document page 2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32285.pdf
But I don't know where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5.
Can any folk provide a link to download X Window System and tutorial to install it for Oracle Linux 5 ?

You can address the problem in a number of different ways.
You can install X-windows from the installation DVD or setup access to the Oracle public software repository as described in http://public-yum.oracle.com. In which case, the command to install X-windows is: yum groupinstall "X Window System"
Or, you login remotely and and use SSH with X-forwarding, in which case the software on the server will use the X-Windows server on your client system. This is probably the preferred way since you do not have X-windows installed on the server. For more details about SSH forwarding and howto, please see Install Oracle 11gR2 on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto part 2 Oracle Universal Installer.
