N80-Won't allow me to update firmware-HELP

Hi
I'm having problems with my phone, specifically with my camera which no longer works, I can only use the secondary camera which is awful. I was advised by board members to update my firmware however I get the dreaded 'minimum requirement 256mb' message, apparently I don't have enough RAM. I'm not prepared to do anything to increase the memory on my laptop so how do I go about updating the firmware? Is there an alternative? I certainly don't want the incompetents at Carphonewarehouse doing it!
OR
is there an alternative camera program I can load?
Please help!

Firmware upgrades are really straightforward: I think I'd trust a snotty 17-year-old to do it, given he's probably done more of them in his 3 weeks on the job than I've done in a lifetime.
Must be kind of a strange camera problem if a firmware fix would help. I don't recall hearing that any of the firmware releases for the N80 did much for the camera. There was a rumour that the N80 -> N80ie upgrade slightly improved image quality, but that was never really confirmed.
I suspect if you have serious camera problems, your phone's probably going to have to go in for repair anyway.

  • IPad backup freezes my iTunes and won't allow New Software Update!  HELP!

    Okay... I am getting so frustrated. I am on a Windows 32bit XP and don't have any problems with my other iDevices.
    I tried over and over, yet every time I connect my iPad it says that it is backing up and then just sits there until I finally get a "program not responding message." In addition, even if I "x" out of the backup part and allow it to finish the rest of the sync process, which it does fine, it isn't allowing me to update to the new version of the software.
    When I click on the update software it verifies the iPad and then goes to backup the iPad and then same thing... it just sits and sits no bar, no nothing. If I hit the "x" it simply closes out of the process altogether.
    What am I missing? Suggestions? Help?

    oh wait... i guess it did update... nvm thank you though

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • My ipad is saying I have app updates to install, but won't allow me to update. The update screen is blank. Any ideas on how to fix?

    My ipad is saying I have app updates to install, but won't allow me to update. The update screen is blank. Any ideas on how to fix?

    There are a number of other threads from people reporting a problem with a blank Updates tab in the App Store app - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
    Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.

  • How do I update from iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    How do i update my iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    An iPhone 4S can only be updated directly to iOS 8.1.2. You need to resolve the issue which prevents you from updating to it instead of attempting to install an intermediate version.

  • HT5642 An error won't allow me to update the software

    An error won't allow me to update iOs 6.1

    What iOS version are you currently running?
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • IPod Touch won't allow apps to update, says not enough space

    My iPod Touch (which I believe is a 4th generation) will not allow me to update my apps. With help, I was finally able to update iTunes and update my iPod to iOS 6, which I thought would fix the problem, but it hasn't. I deleted all of my photos and videos, assuming that would free up a huge amount of space, and it did, but my iPod currently has 887MB of space available (it's an 8G model). I have 5G of iCloud space available but I don't really know what iCloud is or how to use that storage space. So how do I convince my iPod Touch that it has more than adequate space to update the apps that need it? Any and all help would be sincerely appreciated, THANK YOU! 

    How many apps are you trying to update? How big are the updates? It must think that there isn't enough free space to store the updated versions of the apps.
    iCloud space won't help you on this, it's only for additional off-device storage.

  • HT1222 Got a notice on the new iPad. iOS 5.1.1. Update. But it won't allow me to update

    Got a notice on the new iPad. iOS 5.1.1. Update. But it won't allow me to update

    Thank you for your response. Like you it doesn't make sense to me either, however I finally got a response back from  AT&T. There are two towers down in my rural area and they should be backup tomorrow between 2-3pm. The update 'mess' is just a coincidence? We'll see,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • My iPad mini won't allow me to update any apps that need it. How do I fix this?

    My iPad mini will not allow my to update apps when needed. Can you help me correct this?

    Couple things to try:
    check restrictions settings>General>restrictions. Make sure installing apps is not restricted, also verify age restrictions are not set below what the app shows
    reset iPad: hold home and power buttons down simultaneously for 15-20 seconds until the apple logo appears, try updating again.
    if still fails, you could try restarting your router but that is a long shot.

  • N80 on 3 Ireland - can't update firmware

    Hello. I'm having problems with an N80 on 3 Ireland. I am constantly getting "Connection Error" problems.
    3 Customer Support told me this is a known fault, and that I should update my firmware.
    Current firmware is as follows:
    V 3.0618.0.2
    23-05-2006
    RM-92
    Nokia N80 (82.03)
    Customer Support told me to update to v4.0623.0.41.
    I've tried to do this with the Nokia Software Updater. I installed the latest version of the NSU (v1.1.15en). I connected my N80 via the USB datacable, and chose "PC Suite" from the menu on the phone display.
    When I start NSU, the PC Suite icon in the system tray tells me the phone is disconnected. NSU then tells me it can't find a compatible phone.
    I've also tried re-connecting the phone (with NSU already running and at the "Start" screen), but no joy.
    Any ideas folks?
    Thanks...
    --Dean.

    The GENIRIC-firmware of the N80 is updated; this doesn't mean that the Operator-variants, i.e. Vodafone & T-Mobile, updated THEIR firmwares as well . . .
    Nokia Software Uploader looks for the Production-Code of your GSM.
    With NSU, you can NEVER change your Operator-Firmware to the GENERIC Nokia one!

  • My iPhone 4 (iOS5) won't allow me to update apps

    When I originally got my iphone 4, I originally synced my phone to a friends computer and got his apps. I later set up my own appleID and started downloading new apps again. However, now my iphone is getting confused about which apps are owned by who, and what my apple ID is. Whenever I try to update apps via my phone it says that i should reset my password via iForgot. I have done this numerous times and it still makes no difference. ( it should be noted that all the apps I got off a friends computer were deleted and I redownloaded them myself before any problems started to occur).
    Interestingly on iTunes, I can log into my account and buy stuff perfectly normally. However, if i want to update apps, its says that there are 22 to update, but then i click the button and there are only two. I then tried logging in on my friends account, tried to update the apps again, and there they were. HOWEVER, these were apps that I had bought, not him. For example, when I originally synced my phone with his laptop, 'Where's my water?" was not even out, but now it won't let me update the app. I have tried logging in and out of the app store on my phone and that works fine, it is just when i try to update old apps that it wont accept my password.
    This problem only seems to have occured since iOS 5 came out. Please if anyone has any ideas, or possible soutions, please let me know.
    thanks.

    Also, just as a note, I restored my iphone last night, and it has made no difference.
    One last thing... On itunes, when i click 'info' on apps that are said to be under my friends account (ie they will only update when he is logged in), it says that i purchased them under my account, yet it won't let me update them.
