Messaging application needs an update!

Normally I would write something here, this time I will just copy and paste a post I wrote on my blog, www.adityasphones.wordpress.com
This is NOT an ad for my blog, but something that the application needs (an upgrade).
"The native application on S60, which allows one to send SMS, MMS and so on, is a good one. It needs too many clicks, but is no doubt a good robust application. I have just one grouse, Why can I not send a message to someone in my contact list on all of his numbers?
Let me explain, If somebody in your contacts list has two or more numbers on which a message can be sent, and you need to message him about something, but you don’t know which number will he check or which number will be working (network connectivity). In order to send the message to those numbers you need to choose all his numbers in the same way you would choose multiple recipients. My question is why can’t I select all the numbers of that particular person in one shot? Why must I go to the contacts list everytime to select his name and then his other number?
Would it not be ’smarter’ if I could select all the required numbers of a particular person in one go, just in the same way that we select multiple objects in S60, i.e. by pressing the ‘#’ key. This would definitely reduce the amount of clicks needed to get to that contact and and then selct the other number. While there are a few 3rd party applications that allow a work around in an indirect manner, it is not enough for all the contacts.
I don’t think any OS allows this find of functionality, if S60 implements it, this would be a first in the OS arena. This functionality would completely set S60 apart from the other ‘robotic’ OSes (no pun intended). It would also drive home the tagline Nokia has, “Connecting People” to technology and other people.
What are your views on this idea, Do you have anything similar that can be implemented within S60 which would take S60 to another level. Leave your views/comments."

I agree that the email service needs a major overhaul, I guess the NES (Nokia Email Service)would be the next version of the email client. Have you tried it out?
Yes I did, but since it doesn´t work with wap connections it is of no use to me, the rest worked out well.
That is a problem! How come you do not have GPRS in your area?
the NES works even on GPRS.
Ehm of course I have GPRS in my area I even have HSUPA!
WAP is a type of cennection and has got nothing to do with the speed...
I have a WAP flat that´s why I need to work with WAP...
By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.
The day we stop improving is the day we stop being good.

  • Ever since the new numbers update that I installed I am unable to open my documents.  I receive a message I need to update....

    Ever since I updated my system to 10.9 and updated the numbers, iphoto, imovie, pages etc I have been unable to open my numbers documents.  I keep getting a message I need to update.  My computer shows I did.  Whats happening?

    I was opening my documents from the document folder on my dock and that's when I couldn't open them.  I also couldn't open them from the old icon for numbers on my dock.  I even couldn't open from finder.  After recieiving your message I did use the Applications to open numbers and it did work.  I also had one document set with a password and I still had problems opening it.  Once I got it open I removed the password temporairly and it opens now from the document folder like it used to before.  Oh yes, I forgot to mention I removed the old Numbers icon from the dock.  Then I dragged the icon from the Applications folder onto my doc and all seems fine.
    Thank you for your help, I just don't know why these things just don't update automatically from Apple.  Ever since using Apple products these past 3 1/2 years I've decided no more Window's computers.  Please to Apple.....is there a way they can take care of these updates beforehand?

  • Xfinity to go says I need to update Flash..I did....still get same message;

    Tried to watch streaming TV on Macbook Pro, but kept getting message I needed to update my Adobe Flash. So I did so, restarted computer, but still get that message.  I don't get it on my iPad or on my iPhone, just on my Macbook Pro. Grrrrr.  

    If you are using Internet Explorer, ensure that:
    You enabled Flash Player.
    Disabled ActiveX Filtering.

  • Need to update Flash Player

    http://www.cpwilliamsburghotel.com/
    At this Website receive message I need to update my player.
    Problem is I have the lastest version for Mac. and If I click on
    virtual tour crash firefox my Browser of choice.
    By the way here can I find the latest version Flash Pro
    currently have r22 and players version is 24 should they be the
    same?

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer.  Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken in Internet Explorer until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by current versions of Internet Explorer.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    Fix site display problems with Compatibility View - Windows Help
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • TS1702 i have the original ipad it is running iOS 5.1.1 - i tried to install Procreate and error message said this application needed iOS 6 - went back to itunes and downloaded iOs 6 and installed it on computer then resynced the ipad - but doesent update

    i have the original ipad it is running iOS 5.1.1 - i tried to install Procreate and error message said this application needed iOS 6 - went back to itunes and downloaded iOs 6 and installed it on computer then resynced the ipad - but doesent update to 6  - anyone have a suggestion???

    I contacted apple and they checked and yes the originsl ipad cant support ios 6 - so cant use procreate have also checked the procreate website and it appears they advised itunes of this - ideally there should end up being two versions of procreate - one for ios 5 and one for ios 6 -
    dont want to sell the current ipad and get another - at this stage - for the amount of usage it gets not worth the expense
    thanks

  • I keep getting the message You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. but I don't have an update available in app world. Now what?

    I keep getting the message You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. but I don't have an update available in app world. I did the update but it doesn't seem to be registering on my macbook pro. Now I can't open any of my documents as I keep getting this message. Now what???

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • When I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document.  When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers.  can't purchase or update?

    when I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message 'You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document'.  When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers.  can't purchase or update?
    Trying re-purchasing.  won't let me.  says to check for updates?
    any suggestions

    It sounds to me as though you are attempting to open a Pages 09 document with the Pages 08 application. If you do have Pages 09 on your computer, it may be that for some reason an existing Pages 08 application is invoked accidentally.

  • HT201210 i was updating my iphone 4  after 45 mins I got message that software is updated and phone is in recovery mode.It states that I need to restore my phone which will delete all info on the phone.  will I the be able to recover all apps, photos, dat

    I was updating my iphone 4 on computer on itunes.  After 45 mins or so, I got message that software was updated.  But my iphone needed to be restored as it is in recovery mode.  it staes that all data will be deleted!!  Will I be able to recover data, apps, photos, etc?  My phone will not even allow me to use it....it just has picture of itunes with connector on screen.  HELP!

    If your phone is in recovery mode, you've already lost ALL of the data on the phone. Your only choice now is to restore it from your most recent backup. You follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Any data, on your phone, not backed up or in supported applications on your computer, is gone. iTunes content you can re-download for free.

  • SSIS 2008 generates Registration information for this application needs to be updated - VSTA.exe

    I am getting the following error in SQL Server 2008 R2 (build 10.50.1734) x86 platform BI Development Studio (BIDS) 9.0.30729.4462 with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 in a Integration Services project.
    I have a package with a Data Flow task that contains a Script Component. I edit it and attempt to edit script and I get the following error:
    Registration information for this application needs to be updated. To update, log on as an administrator and run this command:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\VSTA.exe /HostID SSIS_ScriptComponent /setup
    About a minute later, another box displays with the following message
    Cannot show Visual Studio Tools for Applications editor.
    Additional information:
    The VSTA designer failed to load. “System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMExeption (0x80004005) Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component at VSTADTAProvider.Interop.VSTADTEProiderClass.GetDTE(String bysHostID, Uint32 dwTimeout).
    I execute the command above running as an administrator (there are no output results). BIDS displays the same symptoms.
    This happens on a Windows 7 Enterprise (I said Professional in an earlier but un-related post) workstation x86 platform. I get the error even if I create a new script component in a new data flow task in a new package. I also have VS 2010 Premium
    Edition (build 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel) installed on this workstation (if that matters). I also uninstalled and re-installed SQL Server from my workstation. My colleague does
    not experience this error, who should have a similarily configured PC. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

    Old thread, but I was having the exact same problem and fixed it, so maybe this will help someone else in the future.
    My problem is that I was confusing the concept of running as an administrator in Windows 7.  I was logged into my machine as an administrator, but I was not actually running the "VSTA /HostID SSIS_ScriptComponent /setup" command as an administrator. 
    When you don't run as an administrator, the command does nothing - no message, nothing.
    I ran the Command Prompt as an Administrator while logged in as a user with Administrator privileges (right click on Command Prompt, select "Run As Administrator").  Then, from that command prompt, I ran "VSTA /HostID SSIS_ScriptComponent /setup", VSTA
    did its magic, and then everything worked.
    After all these years, that explicit "Run As Administrator" concept still trips me up sometimes.

    My ipod needs to be restore and I get a error message saying :ipod software update server coud not be contacted.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then tap Settings > General > Software Update
    No data is lost due to a reset.

    When I open Muse, I get a message that a new update is available.  When I hit install it just closes and nothing happens.  Then I got a message  I needed Adobe Creative Cloud App to resolve the issue.  I downloaded a copy of Creative Cloud desktop but it says that my Muse is up to date.  It was last updated in May but you have a new update today and it will not update.  I thought maybe I am not suppose to have the Creative Cloud update because all I have is the individual app Muse and the photography program.  So I uninstalled the CC desktop.  Then when I open Muse it says I need the CC desktop to help with the update.  So I get stopped either way.  Now I also had a Pre-Release Muse on my computer and I don't know if that complicated things.  Please advise.

    All future installs/updates of Muse (and most other Adobe apps) are through the Creative Cloud desktop app. Thus you do need to have it installed.
