Navigation programs

First mac. I am use to Microsoft's Streets and trips program. I don't know if there is a "MAC" version I looked for a trial version but didn't say anything about mac. Any information would be helpful. I would like to create a route and transfer that info to a Garmin GPS. Suggestions?

Did you check the Tom Tom site? They would have a list of devices. If you have the app, you might try to install it yourself and see if it works. Chances are it will not work properly as the screen size of the 5800 is different than what the normal Tom Tom software was designed for.

How Do I stop the phone from locking while the navigation program is running.

I have a Blackberry 9630 V4.7.1.40. The phone is on an enterprise server network through work. The phone is set to password lock after a couple of min. of non-use. When I have the Sprint Navigation program running, the phone locks after a few min and loses my satellite. I then have to type in a password to unlock it and I then get the signal back.
I called Sprint and they said to press a button after every couple of min. to keep the phone "active". That sounds a little fishy to me!
How do I keep the phone from locking while the Nav. Application is running?
Thank you for your help

Agreed, that is the simplest thing to do... probably much easier than talking your IT guys into raising your timeout.

I have an Iphone 4S. I am unable to turn the volume on Maps and/or Mapquest high enough to hear. Are there better (and louder) navigation programs?

I cannot increase the volume of Maps or Mapquest on my Iphone 4S loug enough to hear it. Are there better navigation apps or does anyone know how to make the volume louder?

Anyone have any ideas?

Deleted GPS navigation program

Curve 8900, T-mobile, OS 5.0.0.900 (Bundle 1626, Platform 5.2.0.96)
I recently updated my phone to OS 5 after activating Blackberry data service with T-Mobile. After the update the was a GPS program in the "Downloads" folder included. I deleted the program by mistake. It was supposed to give voice turn-by-turn directions to the destination.  Does anyone know what the name of that program was and if it can be downloaded from App-world?
Thanks.

You can try the reinstall, but you probably ONLY hid the lauch icon.
1. On your homescreen, press the Menu key > SHOW ALL, so that SHOW ALL is checked.
2. Look in EACH folder on your device... Applications, Instant Messengers, Downloads, etc.
If you still don't see it, look at Options > Advanced > Applications. Do you see it listed there?
I guess you're in Bama, from your username? I am also.

Nokia 6110 Navigator 5.11 Buglist

Nokia, after a year of no support for the Nokia 6110 Navigator despite many bugs, please readd firmware-update-support in Nokia software updater, and fix those bugs remaining in the firmware 5.11 installed by most Nokia service centers since July 2008:
1- when alarm is set to workdays "monday-to-friday" (or whatever 5 day-period) the date on the phone doesn't change on saturday night. On sundays it still shows saturday although the time is correct, and the alarm doesn't work till the date is reset and then everything goes normal till the next sunday when the problem happens again.
2- No matter if you use the original Nokia Sound recorder or third party software, all the recordings have a loud crack sound in the beginning.
3-Volume +/- does not function while playing games.
4- Dual line 32kb sim cards fail to switch to the second line and resets the phone when switched to the second line.
5-Line 1 ringtone and Line 2 ringtone options in profiles disappear for no reason although using a dual line.
6-Deleted numbers in Logs->Recent Calls-> missed/received/dialled logs still remain in the log list view which shows coloured arrows.
7-Even if the sent message history is turned off, the numbers which were sent messages are still shown in the log list shown with arrows.
8- Numbers dialed/received calls list occasionally clears if phone turned off
9- If the phone gets connected to computer over usb cable, and used once on pc suite mode and then once in the data transfer mode, then the vibration is disabled until you reboot the phone. (Settings suggest the vibration is on, but in fact it is simply turned off)
10- On the internet bookmarks view, (accessed through the web icon) if a bookmark is deleted or moved to a different folder they are still shown in the root until the application is closed and re-opened. And if tried to open them by mistake the phone responds "it doesn' exist".
11- If you conect the phone to Nokia software updater by usb cable in pc sync mode, then connect it by data-transfer-mode, all your own created folders including moved icons will be lost and reset to default.
12-It's not possible to use voice dial with voice synthesis turned on.
13- No flash lite 3.0 support
14- If a memo is set or synchronised from outlook the memo still shows on the screen even if the date has been passed.
15- If we try to change the date of a past memo by changing both the start and end date to a future date the phone gives an odd error message that says: "Alarm time already passed" What alarm time? There's no alarm option or alarm time field in memos.
16- The phone occasionally shuts down completely (turns itself off) without any warning for some users.
17- Nokia CK 7W bluetooth carkit and other carkits from other companies (for example Funkwerk-Dabendorf Audio2000 with Bluetooth Adapter version 2) have an echo problem where the remote person hears its own voice and a terrible echo. This seems to be due to the fact, that inbuild microphone on the phone is not turned of completely.
18- While entering a new phone number after typing the number a phone type is selected such as telephone, mobile, work mobile etc.If selected the wrong type there is no way to change tis type unless the number is deleted and re-entered which is a hassle.
19- If there are more than one mobile numbers assigned for a contact as "mobile" type (like mentioned above) set default option does not work.
20- The bluetooth A2DP quality has gone worse. It is skip-happy, and degrading of audio quality is very obvious.
21- If any mp3s have embedded images in the id3 tag, which are not quite square (e.g. 194pxls by 197pxls in one of my files), the music will play, but the phone will almost totally lock up if you try to use another application, and the album art won't show at all.
22- Notes in the organiser on the phone cannot be synchronised with the PC via Nokia PC Suite(Outlook 2003).
23- Music Player on the phone finds "zero" audio files when connected to Nokia Suite via USB.
24- If a call is made while connected to a bluetooth carkit (CK 7W in my case) the latest number dialed won't appear in the logs.
25- When navigating in the standard "Nokia Navigator" Route66 application, if the display mode with all info at the bottom (the only mode that display ETA) is set the phone normally remembers this mode between sessions. When signal is lost (typically after a tunnel), the display mode is reset back to default. Please add the newest Route66 updates! As easy as that! Route66 already released 3 new official updates during this time.
26- If an internet connection is established via the browser and closed, the internet connection stays on constantly until the battery is very hot and voltage is drained only if the e-mail update (push e-mail) is set to "ON".
27-The streaming mode is problematic. An H.264 video encoded in 320x240 resolution could be watched full screen in the streaming mode in the previous firmware however the phone will freeze within 1 or 2 seconds after switching from the standard window size to full screen size after 4.22 if watched during streaming.
28- Real Player(Or music player) doesn't update the playlist unless the phone is not restarted.
29- For some of the users some videos start with the first frame and then shows a black screen for a while and then the video plays normally. (DivX Avi files?)
30- System startup dramatically slows up if using a HCSD memory card.
31- Sound cracks occur in high bit rate mp3's if using an HCSD memory card.
32- The flash provides such an artificial colour tone to the picture which makes the picture looks almost blue or green in all cases.
33- If a user decides to use an alternative navigation software he/she should be able to remap the dedicated navigator button to the executeable of the 3rd party software.
34- Sometimes Nokia Navigator-Program is unable to get a satfix, even if satellite-signal is good enough (3 satellites and more above 70% signal-strength). You have to restat the program to get a satfix. Also new Nokia Navigator/Route66-mobile8-version would fix this problem.
35- When you receive via bluetooth a file with an "unknown extension", there is no way to open the message that contains the attached file and, therefore, there is no way to save the file itself.
There are certainly more bugs, those ones are the ones found by a few customers, the most obvious ones, that keep us nagging since a year now. It seems, you are not testing your phones, as bug #1 (alarm-clock) for example is obvious and was not fixed since the release of the phone.

And I'd like to add these remaining ones from our other threads..
36- When listening to music on the handset and a call comes through, the sound switches to Mono after you hang up and the music resumes playing. And the only way to restore stereo sound is to restart the phone.
37-6110 keeps showing alot of devices in the "send to" bluetooth menu that was paired with and deleted long ago.
38-Joystick press can be used for accepting commands at all areas except for messaging. When message is ready to be sent you cannot click joystick and send message. You need to select options and send and then choose select from the menu.

New firmware Nokia 6110 Navigator version 6.01 soo...

Hello,
I have found on a few different nokia-related-pages that is a new firmware for nokia 6110 navigator (version 6.01). no information about bugfixes, nokia service centers seem to already have it. more to come.

Ok here comes the first news and bugfix list from 5.11 (and i add 4.22 infos) (i use the numbers from here: /discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&message.id=40488&query.id=554906#M40488 )

- Nokia 6110 Navigator gets firmware 6.01 (02-09-08)
- Nokia Navigator-Program is still version 8.0.12274 (11422) as it was in 5.11, no updates, no routing towards coordinates as in newer route66mobile8 available.
- New firmware seems to get better satellite-signal (not faster, but better signal and therefore more satellites that are actually used)
- No flash lite 3.0, still 2.0
- Maybe sound quality improved in carkit-mode for the one using the phone, was not yet able to try to talk with another person
- Battery bug fixed (as in 5.11)
now concearning the other bugs:
1- could not yet try that alarm-bug
2- fixed, i hear no sound-crack
3- not fixed, volume +/- still not activated in games

5- idem
6- not fixed, deleted numbers still in protocol

18- not fixed
19- fixed
20- maybe improved now
21- didnt try yet
22- didnt try yet
23- not fixed, but might be due to the fact, that pc suite has full access during that time to the memroy, therefore musicplayer not
24- not yet noticed, maybe fixed
25- not fixed, old nokia navigator-oem/route66mobile8
26- fixed
27- no changes
28- didnt try yet
29- didnt notice that
30- no change, still rather slow
31- not yet noticed, maybe fixed

34- not yet noticed, but due to the fact that it is the same version as in 5.11 and i have had the problem there too, the problem might still be there
35- didnt try yet
so here we go. you might find out too, what they fixed and what they havent fixed yet.

N82 - problem with GPS navigation

I loaded all necessary Nokia maps, and have problem.
Everything is working fine, options “route to/from” is working, simulation also, but when order “start navigation”, program immediately shutdown.
Is this problem familiar to anyone? Any experience for solution?

I've just tested it on my N82 and it works ok.
Have you tried deleting your maps and reinstalling them?
I'm using a UK N82 and the maps were pre-installed on a 2GB card when I bought it.
Firmware version is V10.0.046

Has anyone tried marble yet? FREE Navigation soft...

i just loaded it and tried it briefly...looks good for anyone that is looking for a replacement nav software! note: i am in no way affiliated with this software however it looks to be a good fit for the betterment of nokia n900 users.
Linux Journal has a review of the maps and navigation program Marble on the N900. Excerpt:
Put the World in Your Pocket with Marble
KDE's Marble breaks free of the desktop—and it knows where it's going.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have the whole world at your fingertips? How about cradling it in a single hand, putting it in your pocket and taking it with you wherever you go? With KDE's Marble Virtual Globe on your mobile phone, you can do just that.
Yes, you now can run Marble on a smartphone that supports Nokia's Qt framework. That could be useful, the next time you are arguing with a friend about which is farther north: London, England, or London, Canada. However, you could answer that kind of question using a mobile Web browser, or you even could use your phone to call someone and ask. At first glance, having a virtual globe on your phone seems like little more than a fun gimmick—something to play with and impress your friends. But if you look a little deeper, you will find that Marble can do much more than plug the gaps in your geography knowledge. It can help you find yourself and guide you home.
Figure 1. Marble's mobile version puts the world at your fingertips.
Navigate Freely
Marble has long been KDE's virtual globe application, providing satellite, atlas and OpenStreetMap mapping of the world. Since its 0.10 release last August, Marble has included route-finding capabilities, so you can enter two locations and have Marble calculate a route and provide step-by-step directions. However, with version 1.0, released in 2010, Marble's navigational capabilities and optimizations for mobile devices have really come of age. Combined with a suitable smartphone, this gives you a completely free navigation system—free software and free map data.
Figure 2. You easily can use a smart phone running Marble as an in-car satellite navigation device.
So, how can you use Marble to turn your phone into a personal navigational device? In principle, you can run the software on any device that supports Nokia's Qt toolkit. In practice, most testing is done on Nokia N900s running Maemo, and packages are available for this platform. Marble also will run fine on MeeGo when the first MeeGo-powered phones appear. In the view of lead developer Torsten Rahn, “It would be really cool to see Marble prepackaged for more platforms, such as Symbian, Android, WinCE and others.”
Get Marble on Your Nokia N900
Most testing of the mobile version of Marble is done using Maemo on Nokia's N900 smartphone. Packages are available to make installation easy.
To get the mobile version of Marble, simply point your phone's Web browser to the Marble Web site (edu.kde.org/marble), navigate to the Download section and scroll down to find the Maemo packages.

Thanks for the tip. I was hesitating about which navigation software to install, and I just installed Marble. Looks good so far but I still have to test it on a real (short) trip.. maybe today on the way home

My n8 ovi maps navigation - is Completley unreliab...

I was trying my new n8 ovi maps , navigating in Lithuania, before going on our family annual caravan summer trip.
This proved to be a catastrophe. The software is copleteley unreliable, and in fact , the worst navigation software I ever tried. Here are some of the issues:
1. Navigation uses unpaved roads as default choice , even if I choose "no" on preferences.
2. routs are often proven completely false, often misleading the user to dead ends or no road at all. This happens almost every time when traveling outside of the capital - Vilnius.
3. Browsing the map on chosen rout during navigation is quite difficult and not useful.
4. Addresses search is not practical , since it usually ask for exact address, and spelling mistakes are not recognized otherwise there are no results. This is very important when traveling abroad.
I was very disappointed , because the main reason I bought N8 , was of the promises for free navigation . We are planning to go on a trip within 2 weeks , and I don't know what to do.
is there any other good compatible navigation program ?
can you solve these problems?
are these problems confined to Lithuania only (hard to believe)?

didn't get any solution for this problem.
I am very dissapointed with your product and service
A newer map set 00.02.43.117 was released on 14/07/11 which may or may not improve the situation for you.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

Jsps from pageflow portlet in navigation (or from portlet to book pages)

Hi all,
I'm a Weblogic newbie. I was wondering if anyone could please tell me how to get the name or title of a jsp from a pageflow portlet in navigation?
I have page1.jsp (title: "Step 1"), page2.jsp ("Step 2") and page3.jsp ("Step 3") in a page flow that goes from page1.jsp to page2.jsp to page3.jsp. This page flow is made into a portlet. This portlet is the ONLY thing on the page in the portal book and the ONLY way to get to page3 is from page2 and to get to page2 is from page1, although you can return to page1 at any point.
I would like my navigation programming--the single level across the top--to show the name of the jsp that is showing or the title. I've seen how to get the book and the pages of the book in the navigation, but not how to get further than that.
Has anyone else done this?
Thanks so much in advance.

Have you resolved this problem? I'm stuck at the same place.
<br>
Thnx, Rajiv

Installed MP Navigator 3.1 and got an error message.

"The scanner driver supported by this software is not installed. Install it and retry." All I'm trying to do is use my Canon MP 495 to scan and save to my computer. I was informed that all the software to scan was included in MP Navigator. This is the second time I've installed it with the same results. I'm installing it from cnet if that makes a difference.

Hi Alex_from_GA,
We recommend installing the latest drivers and software for the printer from the Canon USA website. The following link will take you to the initial download page for your PIXMA MP495:
PIXMA MP495 Driver and Software page
Once on the initial download page for your model, please do the following:
1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED FOR YOU" section and click the MP drivers file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
Once you have downloaded the MP drivers file, please follow the steps above to also download the MP Navigator program from the Recommended for You section. To download the rest of the software for the printer, please follow the steps above, except for in Step 2 you will want to click on the red arrow next to the word SOFTWARE to display the software.
In addition, if you plan on using the printer wirelessly, please ensure that the wireless LAN setting on the printer is enabled. To do this, press the Maintenance button (looks like a pair of pliers and a screwdriver) repeatedly until the symbol that looks like "G" appears in the LCD, then press the <COLOR> button to enable wireless LAN. Once the wireless LAN has been enabled, you can download the drivers from the Canon USA website.
Hope this helps!

Running programs

How ould i know if my program has programs running which will end up draining my battery?

If you don't stop the music playing or stop a navigation program from navigating, they will continue to run. Most other apps will suspend themselves once they finish what they are doing.

IPad + Macbook + Ocean navigator?

Hi!
I have a friend that wants to start a project. This friend owns a huge boat in which he will live and sail when he is free and on work too. He would like to have som kind of navigation program that works both for the iPad and the Macbook so that he can sync those and use them together when he sails so that he can navigate. He would like this to be done wirelessly without the use of 3G (since the roaming costs would be huge). Is this in any way possible?
He gave me this idea just to check it out and see if we could come to some kind of conclusion. Since I know that people here are very talented, I decided to ask the question here. Thanks in advance!

there's a few solutions for both - I've been using MacENC on my MBP and have both iNavX and Navionics on the iPhone. They need to get a USB GPS for the computer - a BU-353 works for me.

6110 Lost Navigator off Phone

G,day all. I seem to have wiped the navigator software off my card/phone some how. Does anyone know how to get it back. I have the Route 66 CD etc but cant figure out how to put the software back on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Matt

@excelpoint: omg, what a lot of answers from people that dont know about nokia 6110 navigator. please ignore all the posts from people above me, as they are simply wrong with their answers concearning nokia 6110 navigator and its inbuild nokia navigator (route66mobile8-version)! they seem to have no clue about nokia 6110 navigator, ignore those messages, as they are simply wrong.
first of all, you can not completely wipe of nokia navigator program from nokia 6110 navi, as it is inbuild in firmware. you might however have deleted your memory card (for example when you format it), and all maps are automatically gone (relax, the licences are still there). to get everything back again: insert the (maybe now empty?) memorycard into the phone, and start nokia navigator-program once, and close it again. now connect your phone over usb cable in data-transfer mode to your computer. start up the route66sync software on your pc (if not yet installed, it is also on the dvd you got along your mobile phone, the yellow one with 66 printed on front of it, simply run setup.exe or download the newest route66sync-software 1.12 from: www.66.com on the right side).
ok, now route66sync software will check whether there are maps, voices and whatever missing, and will aks if you want to download content that you activated, but that you havent downloaded yet. answer yes, it takes some time, but after that everything works again.
three points:
1. if you have hardreset your mobile phone, the licences for maps are gone, to get them back, start nokia navigator-program, open options, extras, maps, options and synchronize the licences (you have to accept the gprs-connection). after that, you got the licences on it, and route66sync software will ask you for downloading content you purchased, and you didnt download yet (the only licence that still stays on your phone even after hardreset is the licence for the map, that came along with your phone at the beginning).
2. if you update the firmware, no personal data at all is lost. advantage of update: you get the newest update for nokia-navigator-programm, i would recommend that! (4.22 is newest firmware currently over nokia software updater). licence keys and maps also stay on your phone, nothing changes, just updates.
3. the one who said nokia maps is better, should first of all try to fix his keyboard (caps lock on), and second try route66mobile8 (that is nokia navigator-program), far in front of nokia maps, nokia maps has problems on positioning methods (often shows the car near the road (offroad) instead off onroad, voice messages often get interrupted, and the prices are far to high (99 euro per year for voice navigation or more, the most expensive product that is on the market, with many bugs, it is still not competitive with big players like route66 mobile 8, garmin mobile xt 4, falk navigator or nowadays also sygic teleatlas/mc guider.
so nokia maps is totallys useless, if you just download the maps, you can brwose them for free, but for navigation you have to purchase the voice-navigation packages, and that costs a fortune (and only available for one year, after that you need to buy again voice navigation)

6710 Navigator random lockups during navigation

While extensively using the GPS functionality of my new 6710 for the first time this week, I've come across a problem of random lockups during navigation.
There seems to be no obvious pattern to the phenomenon, sometimes it occurs just a few seconds after the route has been calculated and navigation has startet, at other times it occurs after already having navigated a large part of the route.
My subjective impression is, lockups are more likely to occur whenever the device tries to calculate an alternate route (when the user instructed it to do so by selecting the respective option) due to traffic information it received.
After a lockup, the navigation program cannot be closed the usual way (by selecting 'Exit'), but only by pressing the red 'hang up' key; and even then, it stays in memory (it's still in the 'open programs' list). Sometimes, the phone altogether is locked up, only way to "re-animate" it then is to switch it off and on again.
Anyone experienced a similar issue, and/or has an idea what might be the problem here, and how to solve it?

Hello,
When i asked nokia about this problem their reply was: "we don't offer support for third party apps, try using ovi". It didn't matter for them that a NAVIGATOR phone does not support a navigation software, considering that Ovi Maps does not know the street i'm living on, neither 90% of my country.So i can't use Ovi, because it will not take me anywhere.
It is a surprise for me that they even want money for Ovi considering the above.
F'more i tried the new Garmin software version (5.00.60) , but i obtained the same result, even though hanging lessens a little bit.
I even had Garmin on my E50, E51 and N73 but did not had this problem.
I think a new firmware will fix this issue.
Regards,
Cristi.
