N97 mini - restore not working

The restore function on my N97 mini seems not to work. I've setup my N97 to daily backup @ 06:00 due to an software error in the PC Suite I've lost all my messages. Yet when I restore the message the mailbox stays empty.
How do I successfully restore the messages on my N97mini?

Yes for sure, most of us did backups & restored the messages successfully taking into account the backup process itself was successful. You have to make sure that you select the same memory, whether "c" or "e", when you backup & restore. If you select "e" as the memory of storing messages, you had to backup mass memory, & restore mass memory to have your messages back.
By the way, what do you mean by nbu file?

Nokia n97 mini email not working

Hi im trying to set up emails on my n97 mini , i click on email it says no mailbox defined define now , so i click yes then start , i choose my internet and it says installing , allow application to use internet, click yes then i goes back to messaging and email not set up , any help

I think I have the same problem. I can set up email accounts with the email wizard and Nokia Messaging online (email.nokia.com) but they don't show up as a mailbox in the regular messages folder structure. Also starting the procedure from that point (Create new mailbox) lead to no results. It starts up the set up procedure but goes back to nothing. Also the symbol of new mail @ is not shown (I hear the sound)....
I used to see a list with Mailboxes in use when I just got the phone, but since I deleted an account I have the above described situation. I did a hard factory default settings reinstall all but that didn't fix the problem.
Can we have some support please?
Grtz.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

HT4623 My iPad mini is not working right ?? On some apps

My iPad mini is not working right on some apps

You can always try to reset your device and see if it helps matters any:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

My ipod mini si not working and I can't find the answer.

My ipod mini is not working. I have done all the R things. It won't switch on unless I toggle the hold key, once switched on it asks me to choose a language but pressing the select button does nothing. Can it be saved or should I throw it in a heap with my Dyson vacuum?????????

It's no longer under warranty? Rather than throw it away, there are 3rd party repair site here in the UK (iPod Doctor is one).
Might be worth a try because it seems like a hardware issue rather than software.

HT1212 restore not working - asks for passcode about 35% in ??

Ipod touch passcode locked - Restore not working - ask for passcode about 35% In ???

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

N97 mini - vibration stopped working!

hi!
i need help ,
since friday the vibration of my n97 mini stopped working !
its really wierd , not vibrating anymore when i touch the screen and when i receivce calls
sometimes it works for a min but then stops again.
i know i shuold take it to a lab but im looking for a way to try and solve this myself.
in teh settings everything is fine and in order.
waiting for help!
thank you!!!

try the following
NOTE: In front of the hash key ( #) there is also a STAR key that people often miss and state that the code does not work.
1.. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data) Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.
2.*#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
3. hard reset - hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, /GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. ) For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

N97 Mini navigation stopped working

I have N97 Mini (firmware 12.0.110.C01.01), and the navigation used to work very nicely, until recently.
Funny thing is that it really gets the GPS lock. The voice guidance gives you the exact instructions where to turn and one of the screens work ok (the one, which shows the next action in symbols and writing). But the other screens are not updated. E.g. the speed indicator may freeze to some fixed value (today I was frightened when it showed 89 km/h in 50 km/h limit zone, while the voice guidance was still working, in reality it was below 50. It stayed 89 for as long as I was in the same screen).
If I remember correctly, the background of the areas outside the map were black, when it worked. Now the background is grey.
I have the Ovi -account active in the phone, internet APN is available and working. GPS gets the signal locked. But my location is not updated on the map.

Your problems sound indicative of poor GPS reception. Have you considered an external bluetooth GPS receiver?
Users should be aware that although it may still appear to function the use of "Bluetooth GPS' as a "Positioning method" is no longer officially supported by Nokia since OVI Maps v3.03

Satellite Pro A300-1A8 Vista system restore not working

I wanted to use system restore due to attempting to reconfigure administrator rights, its somehow deleted all my shortcuts on my menu and messed about with a few things.
However when i try to use system restore (i have attempted to use it in safe mode, via cmd promp, both together and normal boot), yet all seem to stay hanging in the same green page where it reads something along the lines of 'system is initialising restore etc' (spending 45 mins on this page before i get fed up and shut down the computer). I have tried using different restore points but the same occurs. It like its not working at all.
Can anyone help with this please?
My laptop is a Satellite Pro A300-1A8.

Hi
You mean the Vista tool which can be found in (Start button -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore) does not work and you cannot set back the Vista to the early time point?
Well, usually there is no much to do to restore the OS to the early time point you have to star the system restore tool and have to choose the restore point. Then everything should run automatically.
If this doesnt work then something is messed up as you said in your posting above somehow deleted all your shortcuts on my menu and messed about with a few things possibly the OS has been messed to.
Try to clean the OS using the free software for example CCLeaner. I use it too. Its great. Repair and clean the OS and check if its possible to use the system restore tool again.
I found also this MS page:
[System Restore: frequently asked questions|http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/517d3b8e-3379-46c1-b479-05b30d6fb3f01033.mspx#EIEAC]

The camera on my ipad mini is not working - should I return it or is there something I can do to troubleshot?

N97 Touch Screen Not Working

My nokia n97 mini screen is not working neither are the call answer buttons.
The problem is exactly the same as in this video (not my video btw) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_nf3sFX9eg
I've tried replacing the LCD screen with no luck.
I also tried doing a hard reset by pressing the appropiate buttons. (shift + space + BACKSPACE + POWER ON)
When I did the reset it asked for region select etc but all apps, photos etc. were still there so it did not format the drive.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Nokia discussions board and thanks for posting.
The best that I would advise you is to take your device to your nearest Nokia Care Point to get your device checked by our technicians.
Feel free to post any other questions you may have.

Iphone 4s reboot/apple logo problem - restore not working

My iphone 4s is stuck in the reboot cycle. The apple logo appears for 3/4 seconds, dissapears and the returns. it does this constantly.
I have already put the phone into recovery mode and tried to restore twice. about 15 mins from the end of the restore process the flashing apple logo reappears and that is the end of that.
Can anyone help? i dont mind losing data just would like the phone to work again.
Thanks
Chris

Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
If this procedure does not work, make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar to have it evaluated by the techs there.

Constant freezing eventually led to mini port not working

I run bootcamp, and it happens on windows as well so it must be a hardware problem. Unfortunately my coverage is up and I'm unable to pay for anything right now.
Basically, the computer was freezing up for a while, a lot of the time it just freezes up for a couple seconds, or a few seconds at a time, and then sometimes it runs fine. Other times it will completely freeze and I'll have to do a hard shut down. Now my mini port stopped working(I was using an adapter for VGA), also both on windows and mac sides. Computer still freezes up. Just had the hard drive replaced a few months ago when it was under warranty, and it was fine until about a month ago.
Not sure what to do, I keep things pretty clean, I used to build PC's. I ran dsk chk everything was fine.
I want to open this thing up but

Thanks to whoever moved this topic to the correct place.

Mac Mini Graphics Not Working Properly

I have two Mac Minis (a July 2009 model and a June 2010 model) that have recently began having video problems.
The problem started on my newer machine which has two Samsung monitors attached, sometime after the last Snow Leopard update.
Last week, the second, older machine which is connected to only a Panasonic LCD HDTV, began having the same issue.
The problem is that the actual screen resolution being run does not match the settings in the System Preferences. It looks like the graphics controller is actually running at 640x480 or 800x600 or something where everything is big but the OS (Snow Leopard or Lion) still thinks it is running at 720p or some other high resolution. So the OS reports that everything is fine even though it is very obvious, things are not OK.
When I move the mouse to the side the desktop scrolls around on the screen. it is like having a window into my desktop.
Changing the screen resolution in Hardware-Displays does not work nor does the detect display button. On the TV for instance, the Displays panel reports 720p even though it is clear that what is on the screen is nowhere near 720p. It makes videos on the TV look really bad and it makes it hard to navigate around the desktop. I can't even fit the entire browser into the sceen.
I had hoped that upgrading to Lion on the machine hooked to the TV would fix the problem, but It did not. Lion displays the same problem. I have not tried putting Lion on the newer Mac Mini yet.
I did find a workaround for the newer one with the Samsung displays – by using fast user switching, sometimes the proper graphics resolution will come up right on the second or third try/user. And if I do get it working properly and the monitor goes to sleep, it will screw the resolution up again when it wakes up, even if it was working properly before. I have temporarily turned off sleep but this is not a good option for me.
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong or how I could fix it?
Thanks!
Patrick T.

No driver are required or available.
