N73 Firmware upgrade and PC Suite upgrade

Help!!
I have the N73 but have no clue what version of the firmware I have - where will it tell me?
If it is not the latest I want to upgrade but the Nokia help pages say I need to have the latest version of PC Suite first - which I don't have. So I want to upgrade PC Suite BUT the FAQ says I first need to synchronise something before that - how?
It also says I then need to "Backup your phone memory to your PC using PC Suite (to preserve your OMADRM activation keys, etc.)" and "Copy the original SISX, Java, etc. installation files for your applications, themes, etc. from your Nokia hard drive or memory card to your PC. (Do not simply copy over the installed directories/files.)" - again how?
I really wish Nokia would stop assuming everyone is completely literate with all this kind of stuff - because we are not!!! Step by step idiot guides would be more than helpful please Nokia!!!!!
It's no good Nokia telling people to do this and that without bothering to tell them EXACTLY how - Nokia please note!
Anyway, if anyone can offer somne advice it would be greatly appreciated.

type *#0000# in your phone screen to see what software version you have.
there is another area of topics here:
/discussions/board?board.id=swupdate
view that to learn about software update(the link to the pages in there also)
pc suite you can download from

    Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. My laptop is new and has plenty of RAM and HDD. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped working and does not work when I re-load Firefox 3.6. Also IE8 now works very slowly and does not locate major websites like Microsoft without a 'can't find the website message' and having to pressing Return a second time. When I do get to the Mozilla website and click on the button to try to download Firefox 3.6.6, I get this message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find mozilla3.snt.utwente.nl". Can you help with what has gone wrong? As it stands, I can't use Firefox at all. Note: because Firefox did not work after the upgrade, I've downloaded the IE8 version of the Adobe Flash 10.1. What I really want is to be able to use both Firefox and IE8. But is this possible if they use different versions of Adobe Flash?

    I have been having the same problem as the original poster. After upgrading to Ffx 3.6.6, the program asks you to upgrade to Flash Player Plugin 10.1. I download and installed 10.1 only to find videos weren't loading.
    In my case, the problem is the previous installation of Flash Player (9.0.47) was somehow messing things up. To fix this, because I already had Flash plugin 10.1 installed I had to uninstall 10.1 using the uninstaller from adobe and then manually remove any files related the old flash player plugin 9.0.47
    Here is a run-down of my process:
    0. To check if you have a previous installation of the Flash Plugin lurking around, in Firefox go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins (tab). At this point you may seen both Flash plugins.
    1. Proceed to uninstall Flash Plugin 10.1. Adobe provides an uninstaller here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    ( you have to make sure you have nothing running when you execute the installer).
    2. On my Mac (sorry I don't know what it is in Windows) I searched the hard drive for any files/folders with "Shockwave". I found a folder called "Shockwave 10". It wasn't removed by Adobe's uninstaller. For safety I deleted it and then emptied the trash.
    3. I then went to My HD -> Library -> Internet Plugins.
    Remove the file and folder named "Flash player.old"
    4. Restarted; ran the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installer. Restarted again.
    5. Opened up ffx and double checked the plugins list (see step 1). Version 10.1 is installed and available. Went to problem sites to test it out and Success!
    Hope this helps.

    I'm trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS3 on a new ASUS ASM11BB001O computer equipped with 64-bit Windows 7.  I use a "bundle" approach, first loading Photoshop 6, then upgrading with CS upgrade and then CS3 upgrade.  The installation goes smoothly until I add PS CS, and then it balks at the "accept" Adobe conditions screen.  I have two other (Gateway) computers with Windows 7, 64-bit, on both of which the PS-6, CS-CS3 pathway worked fine.  Any thoughts on how to get this working?  Thanks

    If your goal is to install and activate CS5 there is no need to install anything preceding it.  You will only need to have the serial number from the preceding version that you upgrade from (CS3 I guess).

  • I quite by accident ended up with FCE 2, FCE 3.5 Upgrade and FCE 4 Upgrade

    To install on my 2004 G5 Power Mac 2.5 Dual.
    The FCE 2 came with my computer when I bought it new in late 2004, the others I bought recently.
    From what I'm hearing here it appears that the difference between my upgrades and the full version of FCE 4 are; Sound, I think my will retain with the Upgrades. And something else that forgot, I get with the 3.5 Upgrade and then the 4 Upgrade after that, rather than skipping the 3.5 Upgrade.
    I ran out of money so I couldn't get FCS 2 that I wanted and I am trying to get the best FCExpress that I can and the most compatible trouble free that I can for my old system.
    I am shooting with A New Canon HV20 and I have already upgraded to Leopard 10.5.2 and Quicktime Pro and iLife 08
    Should I skip the 3.5 Upgrade and just Upgrade to the 4 or should I Upgrade to 3.5 and then Upgrade to 4, Thank You.

    It's definitely a bad idea to have two different versions of Final Cut on the same computer, so the only way you'd be able to do a "dual upgrade" is to fully install FCE3.5 w/ Soundtrack and LiveType, and upon installing FCE4, choose only to install/upgrade FCE itself. If that's possible. If not, you may be able to accomplish the same thing by digging through the installer's package contents on the install DVD.

  • IPhoto 9.3 stalls out during photo upgrade and won't upgrade photos.

    After upgrading to Lion and updating iPhoto (9.3), I started to upgrade my photo library. It stalls during step 5 at 94%. I have let this go over night (8 hours) and it never completed the upgrade of photos. How do I fix this so I can use iPhoto and not lose my photos?

    *** NEW UPDATE TODAY ***  I have had the same problem - tried to upgrade library, got caught at step 5 of 9 and never could get past it.  Have been wrestling w/ various workarounds for 2 weeks.  Apple released an update today that resolves the issue. I just installed it from software update in system preferences. After the install/update I restarted my Mac (though it wasn't required). Then, 1) hold down option key while starting iPhoto; 2) select the library you want to upgrade; 3) iPhoto went through the library upgrade and opened without hanging up as it had in the past. Note, I used a library which had previously hung up forcing me to force-quit. It still worked fine. Good luck all.

  • Whats the difference between a discount upgrade and a full upgrade

    I currently have a windows lumina smart phone.  Its up for a discounted upgrade now.  I want to upgrade to an Iphone 6 plus but what is the difference if I get the upgrade now with the discount VS waiting till it's totally due for an upgrade?  Would I pay nothing if I wait or would I still end up paying?

    I'm not sure what you mean by "it's totally due for an upgrade".  You can upgrade at any time by paying full retail price for a phone or buying a gently used phone from somewhere like swappa (or borrowing a phone from someone).  If you're eligible for a subsidized/discounted upgrade, you'd pay the two-year contract price listed on the VzW web site.  You can check your subsidized/discounted upgrade date by dialing #UPG from your cell phone.

  • Can I install Photoshop stand alone upgrade and Creative Suite on same machine?

    I'd like to be able to install my Photoshop CS6 Upgrade on the same machine as I am running Creative Suite 5.5.
    I'm using Windows 7 64bit.
    I have one running on a laptop and one on my main machine.. is this possible without conflicts?

    Hi Ned
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have CS5 Photoshop stand alone but it's not installed on same machine as Creative Suite 5.5.. its on a laptop. I use Photoshop mainly but don't want to stuff up my Creative Suite by installing CS6 as well..

  • I can't open iPhoto library on my Macbook Pro. It says to upgrade and I have upgraded and updated it. Any suggestions?

    I cant open iPhoto library since I upgraded it. I says to upgrade to latest version. I have the latest version and have done an update. Any suggestions?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto. (You'd be surprised what some folks call the "latest version")
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • What is the difference between the normal upgrade and the combi upgrade?

    I update my software by using the software update option and it automatically chooses the combi option, can anyone tell me the difference other than the size of the two types of update?
    Thanks

    A combo upgrade can upgrade any dot release of an OS version. So you could use the 10.5.6 combo update to upgrade 10.5.0, 10.5.1, ... 10.5.5 to 10.5.6.
    The delta upgrade can only upgrade the previous dot release to it. So, the 10.5.6 delta can only upgrade 10.5.5 to 10.5.6. If you try and run the 10.5.6 delta upgrade on, say, 10.5.3, it will not run.

  • ARD Version 2.0 - Can't run with Leopard Upgrade and can't upgrade to ARD 3

    I tried to load in my ARD (Version 2) to my Powerbook that now runs the Leopard OS. It loads in but every time I try and run it, the program asks for my administrator password - then uploads some files and says the program is installed. I click "okay" and then ARD shuts down. This is a constant loop that won't let me run the program.
    Any ideas why this is happening?

  • WRT300N Firmware v0.93.9 - which upgrade version can I install?

    I think I can upgrade my firmware, but I don't know which version.
    The firmware version on the web interface says v0.93.9.  But the version on the CD says 1.3.  Neither of those choices are available when I go to the Download page at Linksys.
    Can someone tell me which firmware version I can safely upgrade my router to?
    Thanks.
    KWilder

    Your router is WRT300N V1...
    Download Firmware 3.00 MB...
    Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
    In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
    Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful"  After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
    Now reset your router :
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • CS4 Upgrade and Previous Versions of Photoshop

    As a long-time Photoshop user, I have upgraded my versions of Photoshop over the years and currently have the CS4 Photoshop Upgrade loaded on my computer.  I have an older computer with limited hard drive space and am running out of room.  Is it necessary to keep all the previous versions of Photoshop on my computer's hard drive in order for the already-loaded on my computer CS4 Photoshop Upgrade to run?  In other words, can I remove the earlier versions (like Photoshop 4, Photoshop 6 Upgrade, Photoshop 7 Upgrade, and CS2 Photoshop Upgrade) and still have CS4 Photoshop Upgrade run ok?  I'm trying to clean up hard drive space and would like to make space by deleting the previous versions, but I don't want to mess up my CS4 Photoshop Upgrade if that program somehow ties into components from the previous upgrades.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Thanks for the response.  I currently have CS4 Photoshop Upgrade version already on my computer.  In addition to that, I also have on it Photoshop 4.0, Photoshop 5.5, Photoshop 6.0 Upgrade version, Photoshop 7.0 Upgrade version, and CS2 Photoshop Upgrade.  What I need to know is can I remove the earlier versions of Photoshop or will it negatively affect the operation of CS4 Photoshop Upgrade (since it's not the full version and only an upgrade of the upgrades installed earlier)?  (The only full version of Photoshop I have is Photoshop 4.0 -- everything after that was upgrade versions.)

    Dear
    The main Diff between Kernal release upgrade and kernal patch upgrade is that
    the kernal release upgrade effects whole os  part  and kernal patch upgrade effects some of os binaries as we apply kernal release upgrade when we got continuous abap dumps for any pgm it means sap has made some changes to get effect that changes they release new kernal release once applied that kernal all changes get activated and for kernal patch upgrade we need do apply some times when we apply patch set to existing sp

  • N73 Firmware upgrade nightmare

    Looking for advice, learned ones -
    I've had an N73 for 18 months, love the phone, not so crazy on the hanging issues and general speed of operations.
    So on the weekend, decided to go with what I had read here and update to latest firmware, confident that would improve things.
    Downloaded latest PC Suite and Software Updater. Performed backup to both PC Suite and 2Gb Mini SD card without a hitch.
    Software updater ran successfully and took me from 2.0 something to 4.XXX. Phone rebooted successfully, all looked good, just needed to restore data.
    That's where the nightmare began!
    Went for restore from PC Suite, all seemed to go fine, got to the end where phone screen says "phone will restart". Nothing happened for a while, but the "OK" button was highlighted, so I clicked "OK" thinking it was waiting for permission. Phone went into restart, but only got as far as the Nokia hands screen before a blue-backed message appeared: “Phone start-up failed. Contact the retailer”
    Yikes, ok, not good. Came in here, looked around for advice on similar situations and tried hard reset etc. etc. No dice, always hanging at same point.
    Husband kindly took it to Customer Care on Monday for me, they "fixed" it, but didn't restore data from my backup. So when he got home, we tried backup from SD card to phone. Exactly the same hang-up happened.
    Husband has dutifully taken phone back in today, again they have "fixed" it but I asked this time that they perform a restore from backup at the Centre. Guess what? Yep, same issue. Their "advice": well, it was garbled, to be honest. First they tried telling me that there was no data on the SD card, then they switched the story to "there is something wrong with the data".
    I would possibly believe that if the exact same thing hadn't happened during PC Suite restore. I have the .nbu file here. Any way to test it's integrity? Can I "read" the backup somehow on PC Suite?
    Incredibly, I asked Nokia Care Centre to please prove it was a problem with the card and not the phone, by using my card in another Nokia phone. Their reply: they didn't have another Nokia phone to test that. Really? I have some older model Nokias spare lying around, but I don't think the data will be compatible.
    About 300 contacts there that I really don't fancy rebuilding from scratch
    Advice welcome, please.
    I'm in Hong Kong, if that makes a difference.

    Proud user of Nokias since 1994: Nokia 101, anyone?

    At the risk of having a conversation with myself...
    So much for the Hong Kong Nokia Care Centre! I *knew* that they were glossing over the problem yesterday, by insisting that the memory card and PC Suite backups must be corrupt, as the phone, in their opinion was fixed.
    As it turns out, my husband also has an N73. And yesterday he decided to upgrade to an N95. So once we backed up his phone and copied his "stuff" across to the N95, I had a spare blank N73 to play with. And yep, my data backup restore from PC Suite went to his N73 just fine.
    What to do now? Unfortunately husband's N73 is hammered and looking pretty shabby, whereas mine still looks good, so I actually would prefer to get mine working properly again. How to convince Nokia Customer Care that there must be something wrong with data transfer to my N73?
    Or should I just give up and be glad I have my data back on a working phone (and believe me, I'm very glad about that!!)
    Could it be something to do with firmware versions on the respective N73's? Mine is now running v4.0812.4.3.1 (21-3-2008). His is running v 2.0628.0.0.1 (10-7-2006). I'm not game to update the firmware on his, lest the whole thing start over again!
    Opinions??
