My never ending trouble with my N91

I've never had so much trouble with a phone, i've had this phone for 9 months now, within the first 2 months i had to get it replaced twice because of hard drive problems, and now its just completely given up on me. I opened a text message i received and it wouldn't show it, just the inbox, it wouldn't let me read any of my texts, it also kept randomly freezing, i have one application on it that won't cause any harm, i then tried to back up my videos and images so that i wouldnt lose them, and also create a backup of the contacts etc. just in case, it wouldnt let me save my videos because apparantly they were in use, but i gave up on that and tried the software updator, it finished but came up with an error about the hard drive not being complete.
So thinking that the phone might work i wasn't too bothered about that, but then after it had restarted it won't even go into the menu, read messages. Actually it won't do anything but sit on the standby screen. I decided to try the backup i created earlier, still the same.
I was a really keen admirer of nokia phones until now.

I eventually decided to send my nokia back, phones 4 u sent it back as i actually haven't done anything wrong to the phone.
3 weeks later and i'm still awaiting any contact.
I used to love nokia's, i've never had any other phone but a nokia. Although it's time to get a new contact seeing as though i haven't been able to use my n91 for a few months now (using the old 3410).
I was reading the specification on the n95, i was amazed. GPS, wow. I was thinking about how good that phone really was.
Then i started reading some reviews on the phone. At least 1/3 was 1/5, stating exactly the same problems as mine. "The hard drive crashes after a week" etc.
I wasn't surprised, it just seems nokia are wanting to add more and more to their N series, although not doing anything about the fact that they don't work.
I've lost faith in them now, and i'm looking elsewhere for the first time. I'm thinking either the LG prada, or a sony ericson for the sound quality.
I just think nokia need to stop for a moment, look at what they've got, instead of trying to make things more advanced, they're losing a lot of customers.

  • How do you fix the never ending loop with Itunes authorization process??

    Every time I try to Sync my Iphone, an itunes popup shows up claiming that my computer is no longer authorized for the apps on my phone. On the pop up it gives three options to choose from: "Cancel", "Authorize", and "Don't Authorize". If I choose authorize, it asks me to put in my apple ID and password. Now right here confuses me because when that pops up, it show's a very old email that hasn't been used with itunes in atleast over a year (most likely longer).On an offside note, with my phone I understand a bit of why the email popups with my Iphone because I used to use the email until I got my own apple ID. But now when I try to Sync my girlfriends ipod, which has never come into contact with the email, it shows the same email. Anyway, I change the email to my current one and type in my password and click on "Authorize". Then comes the final pop up telling me "This computer is already authorized. Includin this one, you have authorized one computer out of your available 5." and then gives me the option "OK". I click OK and and the process repeats itself.
    Here is a picture of the first popup.
    I'm new to this so I don't really know if I need to blur anything out but this is it.
    This is the second popup.This first pictures shows what it looks like at first and the second is me putting in my information.
    Then the third popup after I click "Authorize"
    and of course after this it repeats itself.
    I have tried authorizing the computer under the itunes store tab but then it says its already authorized. I don't know how to fix this and it's been a pain for over a month. I heard someone else in my family had the same problem and it just randomly went away after certain amount of time, which I don't get. Any help is gladly accepted.
    Also Merry Christmas

  • Can't get alarm to work on new ipod--never had trouble with old ipod

    Greetings all,
    I just got a new Classic 120GB and it is great but I can't get the alarm clock to work...when I set a time for the alarm clock, it doesn't seem to remember this time but it instead defaults to an hour later than the current actual time...I tried several times to reset the alarm for a minute or two in the future so I could test it and see if it made any sound...I have reset the ipod and the normal time and date display is correct. I also can't get the beep sound to work, although I can hear the clicking when you scroll through things and so the internal speaker is clearly working. I used my old Ipod Photo for years as my alarm clock and I never had a problem with it...anyone have any idea how to fix this? I have the most recent ipod software, am using an older 17" G4 powerbook running 10.4.11. is there something obvious I am overlooking?

    update: I can get an alarm message (you have an alarm) and a choice to dismiss or "snooze" but the internal speaker is still not kicking in and obviously a silent alarm is not ideal in this instance. When I try to hear the "beep" under tones, it doesn't make any sound but bounces me back to "sounds"...I can hear the clicking when scrolling and so the speaker seems activated but is muted somehow for the alarm. My old Ipod had a nice little alarm sound and I was hoping to use my new Ipod as an alarm clock as well...not a life or death thing, but I can't figure this out and I have read everything I could find. Help!

  • Systematic and Never Ending Problems With Elements 7

    Alright I'll start from the top:
    I bought this software via the website a year ago.  Since the very beginning I've had issues that have NEVER been resolved despite numerous sessions with the support personnel.
    I download the software (after paying the over $100 for it) and discovered that I was given an incomplete version.  Naturally I was heated.  I've tried on at least 3 different occasions to have this rectified by the Adobe personnel who have tried, but always failed to solve the issue.  That's the biggest problem.  On to the others.
    Now, when I go to make a movie, the sound i've recorded from the clip (i use Fraps version 3.2.2, yes the PAID for version) never is allowed to transition over.  The clip is without audio when I add it into the software.  The only work around I have for this, is that I export the clip via Windows Movie Maker and then add it into Adobe Premeire.  Naturally this DESTROYS the video quality.
    Third problem, the final quality of the videos I create is very poor. We're talking just NASTY.  I can view the clips just fine and their quality is top notch before I export them out of the program.  The moment they hit my desktop, well, they look like shark chum bait fed through a paper shredder.
    Here's an excellent example:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHJsf1ucajQ
    Now, I know the quality on that video is trash because I had to export it through Windows Movie Maker to keep the game sound effects on the clip and then export it via Adobe.  But, even on clips that purely adobe, that i've sacrificed the sound for, they look like trash.
    Honestly, if i'm going to spend money on software I want my moneys worth.
    I've been asked by scores of people (everyone knows I make and edit movies as a hobby) if I would recommend software for them to use; I've stopped recommending adobe.  My entire experience with this software and company has been decidedly lackluster.  I'm posting now after a year because I'm simply fed up.
    I wanted to check and make sure it's not something I'm doing wrong.  Considering that I paid for a complete version that Adobe miraculously never provided to me despite numeroues attempts, I thought that might have something to do with it.
    So, online community, if you have words of wisdom, please share them.  If not, I'd recommend moving to different software.

    Fed Up Customer

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, you found it rather late in the game. Let's look at a few points:
    I download the software (after paying the over $100 for it) and discovered that I was given an incomplete version.
    Because of the size of the program, and also the Functional Content (the extra Menus, Themes, etc.), the download is a two file process. The names of these files are similar, and many get confused, and think they are the same, only downloading and installing one, but not the other. This ARTICLE will give you the location and name of the two files. It was originally done done for PrE 7, but PrE 8 is tabbed on that page. First, the program needs to be installed, and then the Functional Content. Personally, I think that Adobe could make it more obvious, that one needs two files, and also rename the second archived file, so that it stands out as the one containing that Functional Content.
    Now, when I go to make a movie, the sound i've recorded from the clip (i use Fraps version 3.2.2, yes the PAID for version) never is allowed to transition over.
    FRAPS, and several other video-capture programs present problems, due to the specs. of the files that they create, especially the FPS and the CODEC used. To get some background on CODEC's, this ARTICLE will be helpful. PrE, just like its big-brother, PrPro, is designed around a miniDV tape workflow. There are other base workflows, like HDV and AVCHD, plus 100% DVD-compliant VOB, and a few others. However, when working with non-standard workflows, conversion outside of PrE is usually the best course of action.
    For FRAPS, see this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, and this THREAD. Note: that is but a start. Also, many of the replies in those have links to other threads. Plenty of reading.
    Third problem, the final quality of the videos I create is very poor. We're talking just NASTY.  I can view the clips just fine and their quality is top notch before I export them out of the program.  The moment they hit my desktop, well, they look like shark chum bait fed through a paper shredder.
    Without having the exact workflow, step-by-step, and then the Export/Share settings used, it is impossible to determine where the quality hit has come in, and how to address it.
    Good luck, and sorry for your dissatisfaction,
    Hunt

  • Never ending problems with update.

    It can't be done, always ending with an error message. Uninstall and install back doesn't help. Why don't you fix the the update engine, Adobe? I'm on Windows 7 machine and the only problem with update I have is with Flash Player and Acrobat Reader. It's so frustrating.

    Hi acq742801,
    I understand your frustration.
    But I would be able to sort it out once you'll let me know what exact error do you get while updating.
    Also, in addition to Flash Player, are you getting update error for Adobe Acrobat or Reader or both?
    If possible, please share the screenshot so that I can check at my end.
    Hope to get your response.

  • Won't Open link from email it gives me the option to open but does nothing when I click that open box. This is a new problem my phone never had trouble with this before.

    When I try to open a link from an email it gives me a choice to open but when I choose open it won't! I used to be able to click right on a store or anything and it  would open connect to the store.  Very strange

    Hi
    It shows just 4 always as an option in the "open with" lsit. Also I haven't downloaded any apps for a while so why would it start now?
    Do you know how I can estabilsh how many apps are counting toward this 10 and what they are?

  • Never ending Probelms with JSF

    Hi,
    I was just wondering if JSF is all hype but has no real value in it.
    I have been using for about 3 months. I have faced problems with it at almost every stage.
    1. Validators / Converters are not mature ( Why there is no attempt to integrate mature stuff like Commons-Validator which is already available. I am sure that every one of us agrees that vadation is very important for all web applications. I am aware that it possible to implement custom validators with JSF. But I feel the most comonly used ones should be available off the shelf.
    2. Consider
    <h:inputText id="text2" value="Please enter your text" rendered="false"/>
    If the rendered attribute cannot take a runtime expression value ... what is good for or what is the prupose behind having such an attribute ..... !!!!. This is just one instance there are many situations like this.
    I need to be able to choose whether a text field is rendered or not based on boolean value that is available as request attribute.
    3. There are innumerable probelms when we Tiles with JSF components.. For example if we have html content interleaved between JSF component tags. ... The Layout inspite of having proper definitions does not get rendered properly....The implementation of JSF Panel Grid is too restritced...
    4. There are many people out there implementing JSF components but they are buggy / incomatible with other implementations.... take for example ourfaces , myfaces , JSF reference implementation and Oracle's ADF are NOT compatible with each other... so what is this all about...
    Does anybody here have an idea as to how much time it would take for JSF to become stable enough to be used for Production applications...
    Any comments / suggestions are welcome
    Thanks in advance,

    This is just one instance there are many situations
    like this."rendered" does support dynamic values; just use #{} EL expressions.

    rendered or not based on boolean value that is

    (1) Needing <f:verbatim> is annoying. We (the EG) know; we're working on it.
    (2) More panel renderers would be good; you can look to component libraries (ADF Faces as one) for additional layouts.
    4. There are many people out there implementing JSF
    components but they are buggy / incomatible with other
    implementations.... take for example ourfaces ,
    myfaces , JSF reference implementation and Oracle's
    ADF are NOT compatible with each other... so what is
    this all about...OK, hold up here. There's some lump of claims here, and I don't know what you're specifically saying. It sounds as though you're saying component developers are writing buggy code, and therefore don't work with every implementation. With regards to Oracle's ADF Faces, we of course work with the JSF RI. We're close to working with MyFaces, but there's some issues remaining in MyFaces (perhaps already resolved) that block this. These aren't ADF Faces bugs. Expecting MyFaces to be perfectly compatible when it is not yet certified or described as production level is infeasible.
    (I can't speak for ourfaces.)

    Does anybody here have an idea as to how much time it
    would take for JSF to become stable enough to be used
    for Production applications...

  • Never ending problems with extreme connection to express

    I have an Apple Extreme that is about 5 years old along with 3 newer (1 - 2 years old) and an Apple TV which I bought last year.  All units are N compatible.  I use one extreme for extending my network, one for wireless printing and one for audio.  I'm constantly dealing with one or more of the express units just dropping the connection.  Right now, the unit I use for audio won't even let me reconnect after resetting it.  I'm sure it is something I'm doing in the settings but cannot figure it out.  I'm also wanting to use each of the units as an extender as my 2 story home is large (115 year old Victorian) which is why I have so many units. I'm at 10.9.5 and scared to go to Yosemite because of the wifi connections issues I've read about.  Any help is appreciated as I'm pretty frustrated.

    Sorry, I have 3 newer airport express units.

  • I've never had trouble with iTunes until itunes 11. I'M ANGRY.

    here's what happened:
    today i was going through my iTunes music, getting rid of old songs (deleting them from my computer and "hiding" them in the cloud apparently)
    then, all of the sudden, almost 1,000 of my songs were magically deleted and it showed i only had 300-some songs in my itunes library (i had over 2,000 before this happened).
    so then, i went into the itunes store/my account to see what the heck was going on and i click on my account and it says i have like 900-some purchases "hidden". i didnt "hide" 95% of these songs. SO WHY DID IT DO THAT????? then i, stupidly, tried to transfer all my 2,000+ songs from my iphone to my computer and that didn't work at all. THEN, i look in my trash on my computer and ALL of those songs were in there!!!! I DIDN'T DELETE ANY OF THESE!!! what the ****, itunes?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    if anyone knows what is happening, please give me some advice...
    sincerely,
    ****** off and confused.

    I don't have a definite answer, but by any chance do you have your hard drive encrypted? (e.g. Windows BitLocker, or a third-party full-disk encryption package)
    Playing my iTunes media files on my laptop used to work perfectly. Ever since the full disk encryption software was installed, my music skips & buzzes (and sometimes just plays more slowly, which is really weird) whenever the files don't get decrypted fast enough. That's usually when other apps are also accessing files, maybe there's a disk access priority scheme that doesn't work as well when it has to funnel through the decryption driver?
    Also, although my symptoms are occurring on a rotating disc drive, I've heard that there are some compatability problems between the disk encryption packages and the SSDs.

  • Never-ending Installation with Belle

    I have an installation of "DataWatch" from the Nokia Store that initially failed when my phone lost service in the middle of installation.  Nothing I do seems to stop it from showing installation in progress in the store "says 'Installing.'  
    I've tried power off/on.  I've tried holding the power button down for 10 seconds for the "completely power off" option (E7-00.)  Given the amount of time required to put things back, I don't want to do a soft reset or a hard reset. 
    I would appreciate options aside from soft reset and hard reset.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hey Road Warrior,
    Welcome to the Nokia Forums.
    Please try and remove the phone battery for 30 seconds and reinsert it. If the installation is still stuck, you can continue the download by installing Store QML from betalabs.
    Also be sure you do not have any applications such as network monitor installed which can block certain connections and installations.
    If the two steps above do not work, you may have to plug your device in via usb and connect to Nokia Sutie to backup and reinstall the phone software. 
    I hope this works and you dont have to do a hard reset!

  • Apple Hadrware Test never ends after ram upgrade

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro 15" mid 2012 (not the retina) with osx 10.9.4.
    I recently upgrade my 4go of ram to 8go of ram (Corsair Vengeance SODIMM 2x4go PC12800 1600Mhz CL9 1.5V CMSX8GX3M2A1600C9).
    In order to test the ram I use the Appel Hardware Test.
    Both mode, simple and extended, seems to be frozen and never ends.
    I try to let the test works the all night and the all day but the test never ends.
    So I decided to test my ram with memtest86 boot cd and everything seems to be ok.
    The fact that Apple Hardware Test never ends trouble me.
    Do you think there is a problem with my ram ?
    Do I need to return my ram ?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    We could discuss how you'd benefit from the additional memory, however, since the system isn't working, let's focus on the beeps.
    When you start the system, it goes through some tests (called the power on self test or POST) before loading the operating system. If it finds any errors, it beeps, and the beeps are:
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
    5 beeps = processor is not usable
    3 beeps means it doesn't find any memory that passes the POST test. The fact that this started up after the service center installed the memory upgrade is suspicious, however, if it worked in the store then stopped working later, it may just be unfortunate timing.
    There are some company's on the internet that claim they can repair the logic boards, otherwise, Apple's solution is to replace them. In the US, some Apple stores offer a 'fix everything' service for $350, which is less than specifically replacing the logic board - perhaps there is a similar service in Taiwan.

    Please help me...

    You should read up on Garage Band, I figured it out in 2 minutes and I don't really use that program.
    You need to create a new software instrument and then use a midi keyboard or the software one provided. Hit record and hit your note, holding it down as long as you want.

  • Trouble with mounted partitions (root twice)

    Since a few days ago, I'm experiencing troubles with my partitions, like / being mounted twice. I'm using systemd instead of Init, mtab is symlinked to /proc/self/mounts
    df output:
    rootfs                                                  103212320 13629136   84340304  14% /

    As you can see, / is mounted twice.
    my /proc/self/mounts looks like this (in fact, is):
    http://pastebin.com/bLi22Cps
    my partition layout inherit from the time where I had both Windows and Arch Linux installed (so I was low on free primary partitions) is: sda1 350 GB ext4, sda3 8 GB swap, sda4 98 GB ext4. So I have no /home and / in different partitions as sda1 is where I have all my data.
    my /etc/fstab:
    devpts                 /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
    shm                    /dev/shm      tmpfs     nodev,nosuid        0      0
    /dev/sda1 /media/Akai-Data ext4 defaults,realtime,data=writeback 0 2
    /dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
    /dev/sda4 / ext4 defaults,user_xattr,realtime,data=writeback 0 1
    Also, my /tmp folder has not being cleaned in 5 days. ¿Does it not supposed to be cleaned at every boot/shutdown (I have booted few times in five days)?
    So, my troubles here are:
    / is mounted twice, and /tmp is not being cleaned. Any clue on this?
    Also, to me, my/proc/self/mounts seems weird, aside from the fact that I think there is why / is mounted twice. Could someone check that?
    Thank you in advance.

    The only place I have found that is on my /boot/burg/burg.cfg file:
    linux   /boot/vmlinuz26-pf root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/11331a92-bb2a-4aa2-a376-de9c2d12d6a3 ro fastboot quiet logo.nologo resume=/dev/sda3 init=/sbi/e4rat-preload
    But as far as I can remember, that has been always there since I started using burg instead of grub (half of a mont ago, maybe more). And never got troubles with that.
    Also, rc.local has everything comented out
    EDIT: have I to assume that the burg entry is leading to troubles?

  • Mavericks bugs, trouble with computer

    I installed Mavericks two days ago and since than my computer is living his own life. My mouse is all over the place clicking on things.
    I can't use my computer after downloading this new software, never had trouble with Mac but this is really annoying.
    Now I want to delete Mavericks but I just found out there's only one way to make a back-up and re-install everything.
    Others have the same problem? Is there going to be an new update to get this problem fixed?
    Cheers, Marja

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
    3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    5. Reset the System Management Controller.
    6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.
