Message storage in Nokia N95

Howdy Everyone,
When i recieve messages in my inbox, from people in my contacts, they are come in and are stored my the mobile number and not the name of the person. I find this really tricky trying to work out who each message is from. I cant work out how to get it to display the messages in name format??
Am I missing something, or just a wee bit dumb!!
Thank you heaps,
Anna

Nokia N95 Cannot send messages

Hi I hope this is the right place to post this!
I can't seem to be able to send messages on my Nokia N95. I got it in the middle of December. Great phone and no problems whatsoever.
However the other night I was unable to send messages. They would immediately go straight to the outbox and sit there saying they would resend.
However it fixed itself randomly and began sending messages again. I did nothing. Kept the phone on changed no settings.
Today though it's gone again and this time i haven't been able to send any messages for the past 12 hours. I can make calls, receive calls and receive messages I just cannot send messages.
I've checked my message centre details. Everything is correct for my network 02.
I tried my sim card in my other phone and it sends messages fine.
You name it i've tried it...deleting message centres...adding new ones...it still just sends them straight to the outbox though!
Any ideas anyone? i've googled it and it appears quite a few other people are suffering from this.
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies

As for the message problem, if you are getting the same issue after your restore, I would say it is probable a program or file that is causing the conflict and the only way to deal with that is by process of illimination.
Start by removing the latest program you installed and so on.
On PC Suite I can only restore the entire backup. How do I restore only parts of the backup? I really only need to keep my contacts. Everything else like the maps I can download again if need be.

Nokia N95 - unable to activate mass storage mode

I'm having trouble with my Nokia N95 8Gb and mass storage mode.
WWhen I can eventually activate this mode after shutting down apps (just intellisync and location tracker), it usually lasts no more than 90s before the phone reboots itself.
This makes copying music rather difficult since
- The music apps on pcsuite/nseries pcsuite are useless and crash on any attempt to sync (Vista x64)
- Nokia music doesn't see the phone
- file copy in pcsync is slow
- USB mass storage mode doesn't work (ie for using iTunes sync)
I'm on the v20 software.
Any ideas?
I love my N95 8Gb -- but this is why people but iPhones/iPods... it's just too hard.

Thanks for the hint. However I'd rather not do this just yet. I'd prefer to figure out which app is in error.
So Q: Can one retrieve the cause of a phone crashing/rebooting? Is there a "system dump" ????.........
Point taken, but more often than not it's the O/S itself that is causing a problem, hence the need to perform the reset. And I don't think there is a core dump anywhere that you can examine. Even if there was, would it mean anything to you? You don't know what system variables are where (there won't be any debug symbols) and I'd challenge you to reverse engineer the system stack (if you knew where it was) in order to find the point in execution where the failure occurs.
This is, of course, assuming it is a software problem. If the problem persists after a reset and, optionally, a firmware reinstall, then it could well be a hardware problem that a Nokia Care Point should take a look at.

"View interrupted downloads?" Message in Nokia N95

Dear all,
Every time I finish browsing using web application on Nokia N95 and exit the web I receive the message "view interrupted downloads?" with options yes or no. When I press yes it opens web application again & when I press no nothing happened. I can't get rid of it. I try clearing cache but nothing happened.
Can anybody tell me what I should do to get rid of this message?

I've encountered this before and I from what I remember if you click on Options you should see a menu option which allows you to view the downloads which have been interrupted.
From there you should be able to either cancel them or continue the download.Message Edited by edwardquan on 18-Jun-200709:57 PM

Nokia N95 8GB Album Art and Album Folders Issue

I have been hunting for for a resolution for two issues with the N95 8GB Media Player all over the web.
1. Adding artwork (CD Covers) to audio tracks (or albums) seems to be at best hit and miss. Most of the time it just does not work.
2. Deleting an album delete all the tracks but deleting the album folder seems almost impossible.
Well this weekend I decided to try to solve this and I think I may have hit upon a solution.
Since so may people have the same problem I thought it worth repeating. I would stress this has not been exhaustively tested but it does work reliably so far.
I am using Nokia Music Manager 2.0. The fix is simply to convert the files to AAC rather than to M4A (which is the default). After this simple change everythig worked find for me. I can add and delete albums from Nokia Music Manager 2.0 (don't forget to refresh on the phone afterwards) AND reliably add Album Artwork.
So here is how I have been working.
1. Set the conversion format to AAC. I have been using 'Ultra high' quality setting. Options Menu >> Setting >> Conversion Tab.
2. Next put in a CD, select all the tracks and choose copy to my collection.
3. While this is going on I find the artwork on the Web. A simple Google Image search with the album title and artists last name / band name seems pretty 100% to get the on the first page. Download image to My Documents / My Pictures.
4. Once the CD Rip is complete they will all appear in My Collection. I select all the tracks in my collection for the album in question, and then right click on one of them and select Edit.
5. I then attach the Album Artwork by clicking on the blue folder and choosing it from my, MY Pictures folder.
6. Finally select Copy to Phone from the File Menu.
This has worked for me so far 100% and I have done 20 or so albums.
NOTES:
To get Nokia Music Manager 2.0 I uninstalled the version of Nokia Phone Suite that came with my phone and went to
http://europe.nokia.com/A4144905I (or seach Google for "nokia phone suite"
I chose the N95 8GB downloaded and installed. At some point shortly after install Phone Suite informed me that there were updates available and Nokia Music Manager 2.0 was one of these.
I was originaly using this and suffered all the problems you guys have. After searching the web and finding no solution I decided to do some experimenting.
Hope all this helps.
PS If you need to delete all your legacy album folders, this is the fix I found on this same site. You can do this at any time.
1. Enable the option to be able to see Hidden Files and Folders in your Windows Explorer.
2. Connect your n95 8gb to your computer and choose data transfer mode.
3. Go to My COmputer >> Nokia Phone Browser >> Nokia N95 8GB >> Memory Card E:
3. If you have selected Show Hidden Files and Folders (see 1) you should see a folder called Private.
4. In the Private folder you need to delete the contednts of three folders
\private\101FFC31 (mpxv1.mpd and pcv5.mpd)
\private\101f8857\Cache
\private\101ffca9
In all the 3 folders delete all the files Not the FOLDER
Next time you restart the music player it will rebuild the indexes without the deleted albums folders.
Hope this helps someone. It restored my sanity.

Album Art
Basically there are two methods
Method 1.
You do it on the phone. Load the album art pictures to the memory card. (Must be JPEG NOT BMP)
Load also the music files.
Open Music application in the phone. Open an album then select Options->Album art then Options-> Add, browse for the picture and select Ok.
Repeat for each ALBUM
Method 2.
You do it on the PC.
Get a Tag editing software like Tag&Rename, WINAMP, etc.
Edit the files Metadata to include Album Art picutres (again they should be jpeg and also they should be set as Cover Front).
Transfer the files that have Album Art using File transfer (usb mass storage) don't use MTP or PC Suite as these methods may convert the files and Album Art will be lost.
Or you can continue using your Method

Hi all problem with nokia n95

Just got a nokia n95 for xmas yeah lol.
But i am trying to update it. Ok so i have pc suite already so i plug it in via usb cable given. And i get this message.
the name is already in use as either a service name or a service display name".
It did this with my old phone nokia 6270. I can only use the phone in storage mode right now.
I am using windows vista. Any help would be great thanks.

Hi gooseuk
Unfortunately as O2 have been incentivising remaining stock of N95 on v12 software it has been speculated that v20.0.015 will probably never be released under this particular product code, which can be found on label under battery.

How can I create a writable calendar in iCal???

Problem with nokia n95

i bougt in February 2010 a Nokia n 95 (code IMEI) that in October went out of work. I brought the telephone to the Nokia Assistance Center in Modena, Italy, where I live, but, after two weeks the answer was that the phone was rusty inside and therefore out of warranty!
Well, I am a doctor, I use the phone only for work in my office and I don't even bring it when I go on holidays... I asked clarification to ContactCentre.Europe since the 20th December 2010, but until now no answer.
The question is: did you ever received any similar remarks about Nokia N95?
Thank You

You may have a problem with your phone. I have tried the link on a pc and a phone and it works fine and installs ok.
Post your firmware version EXACTLY as it appears on screen. To find out your version type *#0000# on the main screen.

Video format supported - Nokia N95

Hi,
Maybe I can be wrong, but I think that I have moved a MPEG video into Nokia N95 and it worked fine. However, I tried to do the same thing with another video file (mpeg) and it didnt work, Nokia N95 didnt recognize the file. I dont know if the reason was the lenght of the file 40mb.
I have some questions about it:
1) Which video format is supported on N95?
2) Is there a way to use any format (AVI, MPEG,..) without converting it?
Thanks.

Hi brjohnsmith
Unfortunately you are going to need to use a converter although there is a wide choice and you may find this post by el_loco whom is an authority on the subject of use:

This problem can only be fixed at a nokia care point using specialist equipment.
It is not possible to fix it yourself.

HELP!! Nokia N95 restarting !! and more!!

Okay
im now on my 3rd Nokia N95 from the 02 network
the first 2 handsets had high pitch whining noise and awful sliders which were wobbling on the right hand side, appaulling workmanship, i dont even know how they were allowed to leave the Nokia Factory like this!
maybe the workers were all drunk or something?
it isnt only me thats complained of these faults, check all the other forums about the N95!
anyway, my 3rd handset has been working ok
(or so i thought)
everything was working fine, no wobbly slider, no whiny noise..
but about 3 - 4 times per day as of 3 days ago, the phone just restarts itself when its just sat there!!!
WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING ?
have i now got to sent this **bleep** handset back aswell?
i dont want to drive 20 miles to nearest Nokia Service Centre, WHY should i ????
i also left my house this morning at 5.30am to take a friend to the Airport, the phone was unplugged from the Charger with full battery life, i used sat nav to get there and back, its now 9.35am and i have 2 bars left on te battery life!!
truly appauling if you ask me
will new firmware sort the resarting and battery life?
or do i have to just give up on this handset and buy another model by another Manufacturer?
im at my wits end with these N95`s

That's a typical problem for a newly released N-series. Unfortunately, this is only likely to be fixed by a firmware upgrade. Check you have the latest version. If you do: you're fresh out of luck .. for a while.

That's no surprise at all: when you use the GPS the phone is working all the time. It's kinda like you made a 4 hour (or however long the trips were) phone call. The surprise is that you have any battery left at all!
When I use my N80 for navigation, I usually have either the phone or the GPS receiver on charge virtually all the time.
It's probably no consolation right now, but most of us who bought phones soon after their release have gone through very similar teething problems and we know how hideously frustrating they are. The good news is that if you do hold out, the 2nd or 3rd firmware release normally fixes the worst of the problems and you do finally get that awesome phone you thought you'd bought.
