How to update software with E71 directly?

I checked the instructions on the net but I dont understand them (see below).
Can some one help with this?
I have a Apple OSX so PC Suite is out.
Bluetooth connection between E71 & Apple laptop gets quite often into an endless disconnecting loop and I have to reboot both E71 and Apple laptop. Does newest E71 update help with that? 
 How do I use my device to update?Tip: It is always recommended to backup your data before updating your software. However, updating using your device does not necessitate a full backup.Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Key *#0000# into your phone's home screen or go to Device manager(consult your user guide if necessary) Select Options > Check for updates. Follow the on-screen prompts until your update is complete!The above instructions may not apply to all devices. For detailed instructions on updating your particular device, please select your model on the Device software update page. 

FOTA is not available on the E71 so it cannot be updated directly.
On paper the E71 is compatible with FOTA but no FOTA updates have ever been released for an FP1 based device.
The only options are to do the update on a friends windows based PC or get it updated at a nokia care point. Nokia has never offered mac support for updates so it is not possible to update using the mac OS.
Care points/service centres and repair info:

Elsewhere: Click here, select your country, go to the support section, then select repair.

    How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

    SeanB15 wrote:
    Here are more details on my situation which should help clarify things...
    I purchased three iPhone 4 models back when they first came out (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is (as I understand it) that I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct without wiping out the separate contact lists, etc. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates and still be able to manage separate contact lists, etc. If I go this route, I assume we will lose all the apps on phones #2 and #3 that we have been "sharing"... correct? Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, one of you can help me??
    we have 2 iphone 4's synced to the same itunes account for apps and music since the day we bought them, but each has a different icloud acct. they have both been updated on the same itunes account with every update that has come out since we bought them in december of 2010. nothing on either phone has ever been lost or duplicated. having said all that, maybe i'm missing something here, but we have had no problems. we do have itunes setup to sync manually. i do believe i'm a piker compared to lawrence finch, but i'm just telling you what happens in my house. maybe check with apple? is there a store near you?

  • HT4623 I do not how to update software to my iphone4 on itune? Can you tell me the procedure?

    how to update software to my iphone 4 from itune?

    On iTunes 11, connect the phone via its USB cable, start iTunes if it doesn't start up automatically, select the phone on the list, go to Summary and Check for Updates.
    Directly on the phone:
    The iOS operating system, go to Settings / General / Software Update and wait till it checks for available updates
    For the apps, go to the App Store and click on Updates.
    Unless you  have a blazing fast Internet service and unlimited downloads, it is better and faster if the phone can connect thru Wi-Fi.

  • HT1338 how to update software from 10.5 to 10.7?

    how to update software from 10.5 to 10.7?

    You need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store, and phone them and order a download code for Mac OS X 10.7. Mac OS X 10.7 requires a Mac with a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU and at least 2GB of RAM.

  • HT1444 I have a Mac OSX Version 10.4.11 and i want to know how to update software. Also i have Itunes 8.2 how do i update that?

    I have a Mac OSX Version 10.4.11 and i want to know how to update software are i have itunes 8.2 i want to know how to update that as well

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    How to update software without wi-fi? It shows message that first connect to wi-fi then update even if I have 3G net on my phone i5.

    Hi Parmkshinde,
    Here's why you should use Wifi to do a wireless software update:
    While you'd be able to download an update over 3G/4G, the updates are so big that you'll be waiting a really long time (also, you'll eat up a ton of your monthly wireless data), so Wi-Fi is much easier here. You should also make sure you've got plenty of battery life. The download and installation process can take some time, so if you've got less then 50% battery, you may want to plug in to a power source.
    Hope this answers your question!
    Cheers,
    GB

  • HT4623 Hi, I need help on how to update software for my ipad1, can someone help me?

    Hi, I need help on how to update software for my ipad1, can someone help me?

    The iPad 1 can not be upgraded beyond 5.1.1. If you haven't upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, see the info below.
    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

  • HT1338 I have version OS X 10.6.8, should I update software with Lion or Mountain Lion ??

    I have version OS X 10.6.8, should I update software with Lion or Mountain Lion ??

    Read this for apps that are lost whe you go to Lion: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    But you have more options that you suspect, I think.
    You can clone (CarbonCopyClone, $40 download) your drive to an external.  This is wise before any upgrade to be able to recover if the upgrade fails.
    But also you can keep a SnowLeopard external drive to run your older apps and to preserve your "fallback" in case you decide to go back (I am *not* bashing Lion or ML, just saying some people do want to go back).
