N97 and the new OVI MAPS

N97 sim free (on Orange), version 2.0 software. Updated to OVI maps, the free ones from this site. Installed ok.
When I open the app, it opens fine, then closes by itself after about 10 seconds!
Any ideas?
I have deleted and re-installed the software, I deleted the CIties file and QF files.
I am stumped!

Nokia Map Loader is a programme you can download to your computer, then connect phone to computer with usb, you can then download and install all the maps you need to your phone ( the actual maps not the app, this saves your phone having to download them real time, so navigation is quicker and data usage reduced)
And yes, I dowloaded and used the N97 mini version of maps before the N97 (classic) version was available.
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

I have just installed the new maps after fighting with myself not to for days!
Right after the install I tried to boot N97 wont boot again..
What is the procedure? I need to reformat it reflash it? throw it in the trash?

boot it up in the off line mode, without sim and see if it helps

E55 - NEW OVI MAPS - A LOT OF BUGS!

I have just installed the new OVI MAPS.. but it was better the old version
The usefull internal compass don't work!!!!! why?
Where could I set the AGPS option on/off?
I want back the the ovi maps 3.0 version!

Curious, I have not observed many of the issues you indicate.
0. Haven't had issues, but haven't really paid attention either.
1. This works very nicely for me. Switches to known WiFi when available and automatically uses 3G when not.
2. Have not observed.
3. Lots of apps are missing or don't work on S^3 - terrible shame.
4. It's a **bleep** app so don't worry about it. Half-baked junk, IMO.
5. Yep, it's bad.
6. No problem for me here. Entered Ovi credentials when phone first started up and haven't had to do it anywhere else or ever again.
7. Try Windows Media Player for sync. As for other issues, have not observed any of them.
Have not tried the rest.

I installed the new google maps app and I am unable to make it work because it says, cannot reach server. I have a iphone 4 with 6.0.1 up to date. Please advise where I can locate to chech if my location is turned on.

I installed the new google maps app and I am unable to make it work because it says, cannot reach server. I have a iphone 4 with 6.0.1 up to date. Please advise where I can locate to check if my location is turned on.

i found a solution for this issue when google maps shows you an empty map error message cannot reach server. Click on the icon next to search and you are supposed to be presented with your profile, if not u will have an empty space. click on that space, then the "gear " Icon and logout.
restart your iphone then strat google maps again and log back in.
apparently this is happening when you change your google acount password or enble or disable 2 step verification.

I hate the new Apple Map. The directions are confusing. How do I get google maps back on my iPad and iPhone?

I hate the New Apple Map. The directions are confusing and do not continue by pressing 'next.' How do I get Google Maps back to my iPad and iPhone? Thank you.

Start Safari
Enter the URL: http://maps.google.com/#bmb=1
tap "Go"
Now that you have Google Maps up on Safari, tap the bottom center icon (box with arrow pointing to the right).
Select "Add to Home Screen".
You will now have a Google Maps icon on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch that will take you to Google maps.
There are other map services available. MapQuest, Waze, NavFree, OffMaps, etc...

New Ovi Maps: version 0.1.24.114 are out (!)

For those interested, I just noticed Nokia have just released new maps version 0.1.24.114
Prior to this they offered version 0.1.23.112
For those waiting on new maps, now is your chance to grab them and see if they offer improvements in what you are looking for.
I happened to notice the new version while loading Map Loader just prior to writing this.
Contrary to what I thought, it seems Map Loader reports the version of maps that are on the server and not the version of maps already on your phone.
Anyway, enjoy the new maps.
I haven't even downloaded mine but will soon

Maps confirmed working.
All maps are from Nokia's official Gate5 server(s).
Main geographic regions listed below.
I'll fill requests for the much smaller individual countries later on.
Just wanted to get this post out here quickly for those eager to grab the new maps (and who have enough storage and bandwidth for the bigger files).

Remember, you can always try to download your new maps with Nokia Map Loader / Maps Updater / Ovi Suite, too. The links above are only for those people that prefer to do it manually and/or can't get Nokia's software to work.
You will need version 3 of the Nokia Ovi Maps application installed on your phone (3.01 or 3.03 or similar).
If you have trouble getting it from Nokia, some of my previous posts have links to the map application.
If you want to start fresh with new maps, deleting the qf file on the (root of) your memory card along with the Cities folder is the recommended way. Running the Nokia Ovi Maps application once on your phone will then re-build the Cities folder and the qf file, ready for your new maps.
You will need to attach your phone to the computer in Mass Storage mode to extract & copy these files across. Most of these are large files (especially Europe and America), so it's only recommended for those that want major geographic regions (or the whole world on their phone). 8GB or more storage is preferred if you want all the countries that Nokia offer on your phone.
Enjoy Nokia's new maps.

With the new OVI suite recognize phone device as "...

The problem started when I updated the OVI suite a couple of days before. With the new OVI suite my phone device (Nokia C5) is recognized as "s60 Handset" and I don't have access to my internal phone memory, but the SD card contents only!
I tried to reinstall the old version of OVI suite (2.2.1.23) that worked quite nice. I even deleted the Nokia directories and registry values on my computer when I uninstalled the new version and didn't make a difference.
Just don't tell me that the recognition of the phone device as "s60 Handset" with no internal phone memory access is a normal thing. If that's so I must remark that OVI suite made a major backward step.
When I experienced the Nokia OVI suite (2.2.1.23) for the first time I thought that Nokia finally made a difference in software programming.
Now I see that the bad practice of Nokia PC suite is still going on.

The new version of PC suite will work with Windows 7 . As for its compatibility with Nokia 7610, it should work..However trying it is the best way to confirm..because there will not be any harm to the PC or the phone if it doesn't ..
You may also try the Nokia Suite from here ..

Problem with the new OVI player - no access to com...

Yesterday i've done the forced update to the new OVI player - now for the second time. Two weeks ago i deinstalled the new player and returned to the old Nokia Player by reinstalling, but this doesn´t work any more. This time i have the same problem. The new player seems to run fine - much faster, but when i try to download (comes with music) a song the download doesn´t start. The symbol of the button is changing to the the dots but nothing happens. My account is ok, because download of songs with XpressMusic 5800 is possible.
I tried already a lot of things and now i'm going now a bit mad. Reinstalling the Ovi Player, reinstalling the whole Ovi Suite, reinstalling .NET Framework, checking and updating all OS components - I am using still Windows XP.
Is there anybody out there who has the same problem or anybody of the software developers that can help?

Hi everyone,
I have encountered this issue before and at long last finally got a resolution. After following the steps provided to me, I was finally able to run Ovi Player, see the buttons sign in, comes with music and join now and login to my account. I would like to share to you guys the steps I followed. Please see below:
UNINSTALL OVI PLAYER

1. Nokia OVI Player
2. Nokia Multimedia Common Components
3. PC Connectivity Solution

Why doesn't the new Google maps display correctly?

When the new google maps site loads, it initially shows street lines and names but then they disappear. When entering addresses for directions the routes do not display at all.

I need to connect my old Mac book pro to the new one to transfer files. The old one doesn't have Thunderbolt 2 and the new one doesn't have Firewire 800. Will the Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter or Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter work?

I want to transfer data from my old Mac book pro to my new one using migrate. The old computer doesn't have Thunderbolt 2 and the new one doesn't have Firewire 800. Does the Thunderbolt to Firewire or the Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter work to connect them and transfer data?
Thank you!

Yes, use a Firewire cable and the FW to Tbolt adaptor.

How do I get the old Apple ID off of my iPhone and the new one installed?

I got a MacBook Pro and decided to create a new Apple ID different from the one I previously had. How do I get the old Apple ID off my iPhone and the new one installed?

When I tried this, my music stayed the same whereas my new iTunes has only about half the music it used to. How can I get all the music to clear out so that it can sync my new music to it. Simply connecting it to the MacBook Pro and pressing Sync has not worked.

I have loaded Lion on my MacBook and the new trackpad functions work only on one ordinary account or user and not on the admin account. The trackpad preferences are well set. What can I do?

iCloud should still help you reduce some hard drive space. Just select "optimize" in the icloud tab in Mac Photo App preferences.
Granted, not the same as completely offloading your library to a back-up drive at your location.
Good Luck!

How do I get a home page that shows recent highlights and the news in lieu of Meet Mozilla Foxfire (this comes up each time I open foxfire)

''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/919154''
When I downloaded Foxfire the home page came up with "Meet Mozilla Foxfire" then below that it shows "Become a Firefox Expert in 8 Easy Steps".
