N8 wont connect to Ovi Suite..

Hi,
I'm facing a connectivity issue with ovi suite on my company laptop (windows XP). When i connect the cable, the phone says "connected via ovi suite", and the tray pop up bubble says N8 connected via Ovi Suite, but when I go to the Ovi suite home screen, the bottom of the page shows a N8 icon, and says "Setting up"... and that's ALL!!! That goes on indefinitely, and no sign of any syncing happens... I finally have to connect to the N8 via my PC suite version 7.1.40.1, which works perfectly.
Meanwhile, Ovi suite works fine with my N8 on my personal laptop (Windows 7).
Anyone can help me out with this? Its pretty frustrating. I've tried repairing the Ovi suite installation, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.
Thanks..

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I changed my phone from an E7 that worked well with PC suite to a N8 that would not work at all until, read below.
How i got my N8 to work with PC Suite 7.1.51.0
I found this by accident and it works. When I connect by USB I taped the top left of screen when the USB connect pops up. Be quick it only displays for about 1 second.
This brings up a USB connections list of 4 different connections.
Ovi suite
Mass storage
Media transfer
Conn pc to net
I tried all connections and fu#k me when I Connected by Media Transfer PC suit connected.
It was in non-compatible mode.
A few windows XP explorer popped up and PC warnings. PC suit stated the connected device is not supported.
I ignored all of this as PC suite displayed N8 in the phone connected.
It was connected to N8 in non-compatible mode.
Every thing worked the only problem was the calendar accepted entries only no alarms or type of display.
When I disconnected the phone and went into the calendar all entries were all there.
I had to change the type and add alarms.
When I checked my phone book all entries had been saved.
I reconnected again and did it again to make sure it was not a fluke so now I have deleted Ovi Suite and use PC Suite 7.1.51.0 It works for me.
Hope this might help others.

Every time my phone connects to ovi suite via blue...

I have a 5800 XpressMusic with software version 51.2.007. I am using Ovi suite version 3.1.1.90 on windows 7. every time my phone connects to ovi suite and automatically syncs, 2 "bluetooth messages" are recieved (just like when I send a picture to the phone via bluetooth).when I attempt to open the message, an error message shows up on the phone that says "Messaging: feature not supported".
This seems to happen just after contacts are synched, and began happening with the latest update to Ovi Suite.
I would prefer to not have to delete these messages constantly.

Nokia N85 unable to connect to Ovi Suite

I am unable to connect my nokia n85 through usb for Ovi suite and also the Nokia Download program. Whenever i connect the cable, it tells me
"your device is in file transfer connection mode and cannot be used with NOkia Ovi Suite. Quit file tranfer mode from the device if you want to use the device with Nokia Ovi Suite"
The problem is i have no idea how to do this, and whenever i connect my usb cable my phone asks me which type of transfer method and i always select pc suite, so it shouldnt give me this error.

plese help me for fixing this issue: Mine is nokia n85 smart phone. After installing ovi suite in my PC with windows 7, and updating all the software from nokia support, I am unable to connect my mobile to ovi suite through USB. It says," device does not support (though in phone it shows connected in PC suite mode). Please suggest me with 2 alternative methods so I can use one in failure default. Thank you

C5-00 No connection with ovi suite possible

Since 4 weeks I attempt to connect my new purchased mobile with ovi suite. I tried every version to connect but without success of chance to get in to ovi suite. I have Vista SP2 and used last release ovi suite 3.0.0.290
Each time of several installations and new set up of my PC-system I get the message from ovi suite: No device connected.
Also I used the correct USB-cable 101 and cable driver which has been installed on my PC during installation of ovi suite. I set up my C5-00 device for connection USB-PC-Suite.
Does every body have a advise what is to do. Never I had such huge problems with a mobile software. I suppose finally there is a software problem within of ovi suit data.
Would highly appreciate to get advises from Nokia support or other members.
Regards,
Franz

my N8 will not connect to my notebook (asus n53sv with win7 home premium x64) via bluetooth using either pc suite or ovi suite but will pair directly to my notebook. both ovi suite and pc suite attempt to connect to the N8, but cannot authorise the connection. is there a solution available?

The iPhone 3G does not support this. Only the 3GS and up support internet tethering via Bluetooth.

C7 Connection to OVI suite fail

Still having problems connecting C7 to Ovi Suite. No way to update software. None of sollutions on support discussions helped. After plugging in USB cable Suite fails to recognise C7 device. After plugging USB cable, PC registers C7 under device manager. Suite launches but fail to recognise C7. Keeps on asking to connect phone. Windows 7, 64 bit. Suite ver.: 3.4.41. Phone software 022.014.269.06

@ 575leon,
Could you please submit an error report first of all. Then if you have not tried yet, you could download the beta version of Nokia Suite 3.4.48. Could you also please link to the thread(s) in which you have received troubleshooting, so we know what you have already tried.
Hope the beta works.

Problems with N900 connecting to Ovi Suite

Firstly appologies if this has been covered before.
I'm trying to connect my phone to Ovi Suite via USB cable on my PC, I continually get the message that the device is not currently supported. Upon looking on the support site, it clearly says the N900 is compatible. If it helps my Ovi Suite software is updated to the latest version 2.1.1.1. Does anyone have a fix for this??

ok, just had a closer look.
It seems that when you type 'N900' in the compatibility test, it then shows you the link to download the Nokia PC Suite.

N8 wont connect to ovi store

When trying to connect to the ovi store it just keeps saying can't connect or it just goes back to my home page anybody have any ideas

I had the same experience / problem.
I tried pairing up the N8 directly with the Windows Bluetooth service (I use Windows 7 by the way). This still didn't work as all the bluetooth drivers didn't install.
So i removed the pairing from Windows, removed the pairing from N8 and tried again...still Ovi Suite wouldn't see my device even after turning off and on and off and on the bluetooth (on both PC and N8).
So i uninstalled everything related to Nokia (Ovi Suite, Connectivity Driver, and PC Connection) then installed Ovi Suite again.
This time it found first time the N8 and paired up successfully with all drivers installed for each bluetooth service it provides.
I think it is just one of those Microsoft things perhaps??

N86 not connected to OVI Suit

Hi,
I have just bought Nokia N86 8MP. I have installed OVI Suit on my laptop. But I amd not able to configure my phone with OVI suite.
After connecting my cell with my laptop I select PC Suit USB Mode from my cell phone. On the second step (Connect Device) of OVI Suite configuration the name of my phone is visible but when I select, A popup message is displayed that This device is not in PC Suite USB mode. And the 'Next' button is greyed out.
Anybody there to help me out.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards,
Qarshi

I had similar problem with XpressMusic 5800 and Windows 7.
The solution for me was to update windows drivers by opening computer management --> Device Manager --> Portable devices --> Right click <Phone Name and Model> and select 'Update Driver Software' --> Click "Search automatically for Updated Driver Software".
Computer has to be connected to the Internet during the update process. That worked for me, I hope it helps

Can't connect to Ovi Suite 2.2.0.245

I've got a problem.
And that is that Ovi Suite can't seem to recognize my X3-00.
I can access the phone via "My Computer => Portable Devices => Nokia(the phone's name)", which means that it can''t be the USB-cable
Does anyone know a solution for this?

I had the same problem with my E75, with the earlier OVI 2.2.0.242, that the synchronizing only work for som of the components.I saw not my own phone icon only a normal one. Then upgrade to 2.2.0.245 and follow the process when driver for the cabel was installed, what I saw was in the driver cable install windows all the different things was installed then OVI was synchronizing and found everything.
My opinion is that You have to try to get the cable driver to be installed in the right way
(PC has windows vista, the driver installing could also be on the Vista side, my XP work ok without problem.

Can anyone advise how i can sync my N97 mini. I have tried the usual method of sync and sync all but nothing happens. I could do with syncing without having to reset my phone as i may lose data on my phone.

Unable to connect N8 on OVI suite.

Hi, I just got my N8 yesterday, it´s awesome but I´ve been unable to sync it at OVI Suite and I need to restore all my contacts, first when I plugged the USB cable it didn´t even showed the device at all, I am not even able to safely remove it because it´s not showing at the PC. When I change to Mass storage is OK, I can get into the phone and browse files.
I tried the solution I found here at the forums, uninstalling and reinstalling the OVI suite but nothing happened, I even tried with Nokia PC Suite with no luck, sometimes it gets the device but it says that it´s "connected in non-compatible USB mode" but the phone clearly shows that it is on that mode.
Can anybody help me??

I, too, am having the exact same problem (Windows7).
N8 is connecting in Mass Storage mode ok.
But when I want to connect in OVI Suite/PC Suite mode to latest version of OVI, it keeps saying that I change the connectivity mode on my device to OVI Suite (although, from device, it already is IN ovi/pc suite mode and not in Mass storage).
Even, at the same time, Win7's own explorer has been showing N8 connected and I can browse the phone's contents thru this explorer.
How to go around this?
Wish#1: MP3 Tag Editor capable of editing ratings.
Wish#2: Android type Video player, highly efficient player capable of playing all formats.
Wish#3: Without Google Maps (and products), no gadget is worth keeping.

thanks in advance

Did the N80 drivers install properly after you reinstalled PC suite?
I think your only option is to uninstall PC Suite and the Cable driver and run the clean up tool, download the latest version of PC Suite and install yet again.
When you get to the part of the installation where you connect the phone, check that the drivers are being installed - there should be a "Found new hardware" message and then a series of messages about things being installed.
If you don't get these, then maybe your cable has failed - have you tried having that replaced?
