N8 External GPS automatic pairing does'nt work

Ovi Maps and N8 with external Globalsat GPS will not work correct. If you have paired the external GPS with the N8, and you loose the bluetooth connection, the phone will not find the GPS device auomaticly anymore. Only solution is to restart Ovi Maps. Is the problem in the software or the N8 Firmware?

Yes, it is "Authorised". When Ovi Maps is in use and the Bluetooth connection is lost(you leave the car and take the phone with you, GPS stays in the car) you get the information "No GPS connection" from the Ovi Maps applications voice guidance. Then when you come back, the connection to the GPS is not made automaticly. You just get a popup on the phone where you can choose different bluetooth devices, including the external GPS. This should not happen, the connection should be made automaticly and then jus just continue navigation.
If you choose the GPS from the popupwindow, it works but you get again the popup and it asks you for the device(at this moment you altready have the connection, but it still asks for it). You can again choose the GPS, but again the same popup will be shown..... if you choose cancel, you got no connection and the only thing to get it, is to close the program and start it again.

I have not changed any of my preferences and they look like they are as I would have left them.
I tried resetting Firefox and deleting the preference file, no change.
By the way, I hate that the tabs are on top and not where they belong above the pages they are for. There should still be a way in Firefox to put them back without having to use an add-in.

Automatic update does not work

On my both computers (Windows 7, Window 8), the automatic update does not work at all, although it is activated in the options. All I get in the Firefox info box is that an update is available, with a link that I have to follow to download the installation file and install it manually. No difference even if I wait for weeks, the update is neither downloaded nor installed automatically. The problem persists in all Firefox versions since version 3.6.16 / 2011 (the last update in the chronicle). Note that the automatic update seems to perform well in the Windows XP mode of my Windows 7 system !

It will update eventually; there may have been availability problems on the update servers.

Automatic refresh does not work - multiple macs, ICAL versions, OS versions

Hey.
I have a problem that I can't fix and I couldn't find any suitable input for.
We use ICAL on multiple macs (some of them with differing IOS and ICAL versions installed) and share differing calendar subscriptions.
So far so good.
Unfortunately the automatic refresh doesn't work on all macs. It seems like it depends on the IOS- or ICAL- Version installed, whether the automatic refresh works or not.
For example:
My friend creates an appointment on a shared calendar.
She uses MAC OS X 10.6.8 and ICAL 4.0.4.
I use MAC OS X 10.8.5 and ICAL 6.0.
We both activated the automatic refresh option in our account informations and set the time interval on 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes the calendar automatically refreshes and I can see her appointment.
Unfortunately it doesn't work the other way around. When I create an appointment, she has to manually force ICAL to refresh in order to see the entry.
Any help? Any suggestions? We would really appreciate it.
Many thanks in advance!

1680 x1050 external monitor on T500 does not work

Dear all, I have a T500 running XP professional and a Philips external monitor 220BW8plus, but when I set the screen resolution to the screen's native resolution my screen gets compressed with 2 black areas on the side. I've tried everything I could think of, but nothing worked. Now I'm forced to work at 1400 by 1050.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Cheers,
Erik
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for that suggestion, but I've tried that and as soon as I apply that change, the screen gets compressed with big black bars on the side.
It doesn't matter if I switch to single display, dual clone, dual extended, without or with docking station. I've updated to the latest software drivers etc, etc.
Is it a problem of the T500 with this brand and type of screen (Philips 220BW8CS1/00)?
Even our IT department is not able to solve the problem. They suggest I'd buy a different screen

If Software Update does not report that newer versions are available, then your iTunes & QuickTime software, are as far as they came be updated for your OS.
Mac OS X Versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, are complete system upgrades that must be purchased.
The point upgrades, such as 10.1.x to 10.1.5 (Final) 10.2.x to 10.2.8 (Final), 10.3.x to 10.3.9 (Final), and 10.4.x to 10.4.8 (Pending), can be downloaded for free.
Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Tiger 10.4.x is the most up to date OS.
If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased rather inexpensively, at some additional online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, FastMac, etc.
Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.

Once Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.
If your Mac meets the System Requirements for Tiger, you could also consider installing that.
And then use the PPC 10.4.8 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.

Automatic flash does not work under ios 6

I have noticed that flash never works when set in Automatic mode, but I'm not sure that it is really since iOS6 update, I'm afraid it started earlier. Everything is ok when the flash is set to On. Does anybody have similar problem, may it be related really to any iOS update or rather some third party app that screws the functionality? The device is iPhone 4 MC603EL, iOS vers 6.0 (10A403).

Flash plugin crashes every time it loads.
Flash works fine here on Firefox and Safari (actually 10.6 users shouldn't be using Safari as Apple doesn't support it anymore)
You said you reinstalled OS X, but that only does OS X unless you first wiped the drive of all users (and their data!) and programs.
So your issue is likely a corrupted Flash user cache file or user permissions issue in your user account.
Since you uninstalled and reinstalled Flash and the problem continues, that would suggest it's the cause.
It can likely be confirmed by logging into another user account.
You can delete your Flash cache file in the Apple menu > System Preferences also use the OnyX routine in the Step by Step fixes should clear other cache issues.
Also run through this list of fixes to eliminate other issues (like failed user account permissions) as you generally tune up your machine.

Solution approach to MANY issues where automatic sleep does not work

Hi
I had many issues for a long time where my machine would not go to sleep automatically. This annoyed me quite a bit.
I have read long ago that this might happen if an application writes standard output to the console. Those write "events" you do not notice as user as long as you never open the "Console" application and check...
my console was empty...
BUT I checked some other logs and I found that basically and frequent log written prevents the machine from automatically going to sleep.
In my case it was related to have "Firewall logging" enabled. The firewall logged every 3-4 minutes that it was listening..
I turned off "Firewall logging" and finally my machine goes to sleep again automatically after the specified time of no activity
Michael

Hello Michael:
That is interesting, and thanks for posting. However, I tested the premise on my own systems and the firewall logging did not prevent the Macs from sleeping on schedule. I do admit that I usually put them to sleep when I am finished with whatever I am doing.
I do have a strange anomaly that causes my iMacs to wake on random occasions, but that is not relevant to your issue.

Laptop doesn't start - automatic repair does not work

Secondly: in case of software problems it’s recommended to recover the notebook back to factory settings using one of the recovery procedures: HDD or recovery medium.
Knowing that you don’t need to pay for any service in case of software issues…
Don’t be mad at me but in this case you recommendation isn’t very helpful…
Thank you for your comments. They seem to come straight from Toshiba, but perhaps I am being a bitcynical. I posted my reply to save otherpeople wasting their time.
I fail to see why a machine not booting up is a softwareproblem, especially when the machine is new and has not had any other softwareput on it that is not on other makes of machine. There is no reason for it to fail to startup.
The problems I encountered were with the McAfee softwarethat was pre-installed on the Laptop when I bought it. I know this because Ihad to sort them out with my security software provider, Kaspersky, whom Iwould recommend unreservedly.
I also felt the service offered by Toshiba support wasdisgraceful. If they know there aresoftware problems, which they clearly do as the told me immediately I phonedthat they could solve it there and then, why haven’t they attempted to iron outthese problems, rather that waiting until customers are inconvenience then chargingthem 89for a one off fix.
If you are a genuine user I did want to save you some timeas I have sent my comments to Toshiba and they have, in the best spirit ofcustomer service, ignored them and failed to respond.
You can do this yourself if you like, but it does taketime.
Sorry for the delay in replying, but it seems to takeforever to type anything into the forum.

This.print(pp) with interactive type silent or automatic does not work after upgrade acrobat reader 9 to acrobat reader 11

After an upgrade of acrobat reader 9 to acrobat reader 11 the automatic printing of a pdf. The pdf is opened, but the print does not happen. With acrobat reader 9 it works. But with acrobat reader 11 the printing does not happen.
I discovered when you specify pp.constants.interactionLevel.full it works on acrobat reader 11. But when you specify pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent or pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic it does not work on acrobat reader 11. But with the full option we have a dialog print box

Using external GPS via Bluetooth?

Hi there
Are there any apps for iPhone to work with an external GPS receiver paired via Bluetooth?

Thanks, snozdop!
As you said, had to install the server app, Got it working, finally!

GPS Location does not work for external devices

It has been posted before, but I'll post again in case anyone has found a solution.
I am using an external device (XGPS150) to provide GPS to my Ipod Touch 4G. It worked great with iOS 5. It does not work reliably with iOS 6. I have to turn off and then turn on location services, and occasionally reboot the iPod to make it work. I have tried using iOS 6, 6.01, and 6.1 Beta 3, and the problem is present in all version. I wish Apple would fix the problem.

These previous discussions may shed some light on the problem.
