N95 update - error 1720 message. Any ideas??

When I try and download the N95 update, i get a message saying 'Error 1720. There is a problem with the windows installer package. A script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Custom action Kill_process script error -2147023898,: line 5 column 1,.'
I have no idea what this means, or how to fix it. Can anyone help??
Thanks,

Hi, what version of NSU can you not remove?
I am having same problems (XP user), so frustrating, it's NSU v1.4.32en I cannot remove, when I try and uninstall it I get the message 'This action is only valid for products that are currently installed.' and when I try and install the latest version I get the message 'Missing Software Components. Critical software components are missing. Please reinstall.' then Error 1720.....
Anyway I followed some suggestions, notably uninstalling all trace of Nokia programs (PC Suite & N Series PC Suite) then searching my PC for any Nokia .msi files and deleting those too along with all possible Temp files/folders, then I've tried installing lastest NSU again and still get the same result but also get 'Error 1714. The older version of Nokia Software Updater cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.' when trying to run the NSUsetup.msi
I've also just reinstalled N Series PC Suite and the Nokia Nseries Update Manager has been stuck on 'Checking for the latest software versions. Please wait' for the last hour and 10mins!
Luckily I've been able to get hold of a laptop to update my N95 8GB later today, but what happens in the future - I' stuck with never being able to update my phone on my desktop (and only) PC... That would be reason enough not to buy another Nokia N series phone and move to another make after 7+ years of nokias.....
The tech support need to sort this problem out asap before they start losing customers.
Not a trace of old NSU versions available too which is probably all that's needed to repair then update or uninstall v1.4.32 that the problem lies with!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    Hi bdtcop,
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue with AirPrint. Here is an article for you with some troubleshooting steps that may be helpful for resolving this issue:
    About AirPrint
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If you're unable to print
    Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
    Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
    Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
    Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
    Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
    Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • HT203128 "Unable to check for available downloads. The network connection was lost." I have 3 downloads from yesterday that I receive this error code. Any ideas?

    I have 3 downloads from yesterday that I receive this error code. Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    I may have stumbled upon something that could help. A type of "detour" around the problem.
    I just started experiencing this problem a few days ago. Anytime I'd try to download a song/video/movie, I would get the message, "Unable to check for available downloads. The network connection was reset".
    So, instead of selecting "Check for Available Downloads" under "Advanced" menu...
    I logged into "My Account" page in itunes. If there are available downloads it comes up at the top of the page with the option button "Download Now". When I select that -- it downloads immediately.
    Can't promise it will work every time. But it's worked for me so far. Good luck...

  • ITunes fails to install with error Ox800736FD. Any ideas?

    iTunes fails to install with error Ox800736FD. Any ideas?
    Trying to install on a Acer Aspire-- no CD/DVD

    Ox800736FD
    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

  • I just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why?

    i just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why? also i can not seem to download pages from the app store, any idea's on why, please help!!

    You need to describe more clearly what you are trying to do and how it is failing.
    Was your mac new, or just new to you? What OS did it come with? Lion? Snow Leopard?
    Have you already bought Mountain Lion? If so, are you using the same Apple ID that you used for your purchase?
    What are you seeing in the App Store? Come to think of it, are in the MAC App Store? (not to be confused with the iTunes App Store!).
    If you give answers to these questions we may be able to help!

  • HT1338 after an update safari stopped working any ideas on how to fix this?

    after an update safari stopped working any ideas on how to fix this?

    Use another browser to install Safari again.
    You can download Firefox for the Mac, place the download on a USB thumb drive stick it into the Mac and copy it, run the installer.
    Once FF is on, download a new copy of Safari from Apple's site.

    I am getting Error 7 (Windows error 126). Any ideas?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    I was able to get to a support person who helped me fix this without charge. I guess it was my bad for not trying the right way to access support.
    Anyway, they answer is this.
    I had to create a new account on my computer. When I logged into the new account it immediately wanted an AppleID. I used my daughter's e-mail address for the AppleID. This setup the internet accounts correctly with her iCloud.com e-mail address. I was then able to access e-mail in both the browser and Mail. Not that complicated but nothing that I would have easily thought up on my own.
    Thank Apple Support!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

    Thanks!

    Hi Russ,
    Thanks for your response. I am not an experienced user of FC or other video editing software but if its that hit and miss I think I will go to the trouble of finding some better software - I have a busy enough life as is, I don;t want to get into second guessing what a software problem might be!
    I have just successfully exported my video to a master file using one of the Apple codec options so it looks like it could be to do with the H.264 codec.  I am wondering if Apples Compressor software would solve this problem - the only way to try this it to buy it, there is not trial for the compressor app.  Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Gerry
