Nokia 97 mini & Ovi Suite

Hi,
Need some help. Want to download apps to ovi suite/computer then update to phone. Primarily interested in Skype. Also have wifi but not sure how to download to phone using this instead of mobile phone network. Thanks

@tigger69
Welcome to the forum!
OVI Store application upon your N97 Mini should use Internet destination as default connection, so if you go to Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Destinations > Internet - is WLAN = Priority 1? (Options > Organise > Change priority).
Certain network branded versions will always use 3G connection to generate network traffic for provider however.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

Nokia 6303 /ovi suite contacts in outlook sync pro...

Hi
I am using ms outlook on windows xp and ovi suite. The problem is that not all the information from outllok is passed to the phone. Some addresses are left out and sometimes other info such as phone numbers or email address don't sync. Some contacts are fine and there doesn't seem to be any consistancy to the problem. Any ideas anyone.
Regards

I have N97 Mini and a lot of problems.Actually I wouldn't called it problems because there is no solution ever post by NOKIA support.This is really a nightmare that NOKIA COMPANY sold to the buyers along with phones we bought .I have 10 years of experience with NOKIA devices all of the models including the first Symbian 6600.Now the whole month I spent every day trying to handle this **bleep** od device and the biggest **bleep** OVI suite searching on hundreds of sites and forums but everywhere the same only bad no solution and NOKIA just giving new versions that means nothing for solving problems.
So XP Pro OS when i try to sync contacts the most of the contacts I do but about 33 contacts reports Sync conflict and i have notes that those contacts has a photo of people next to number.
Also well known problem is with music,videos and photos. I have music stored in mass storage and what ever i tried i cannot reproduce the music from the device.I made playlists,library,...
The next thing I'll do, I will turn on my camera and say what I think of new NOKIA and OVI suite than I will throw N97 Mini hard on the floor and madly wade over device while it becomes a pile of trash what is the real description of new generation touch screen and new OVI suite any version!

Feedback from Nokia re Ovi Suite

Yesterday I posted two message on this discussion board which highlighted my dissatisfaction with Ovi Suite and my total frustration with the support offered from Nokia, one of them had a link to a survey.
Did Nokia respond to find out why I was to dissatisfied? No, they removed the posts.
To all those users who felt I disrepected them I apologise, but doesn't Nokia advertise this discussion board as somewhere where we the customers can share our comments & thoughts?
To Nokia I offer no apology, why? Because Ovi Suite is a let down, and I have tried to contact Careline, but guess what, you don' care!!
For Nokia the best way to deal with an unhappy customer is to silence them.

Whilst all users are welcome to share there thoughts, we do expect those thoughts to to be expressed in a way that shows due respect to all other users of this forum, and having reviewed post in question concerning Ovi Suite, we support the actions of the moderator who took the decision to remove your post.
The questions that you ask are perfectly legitimate:
Why can't I sync with Gmail?
Why can't I sync with Lotus Notes like I could with PC Suite?
Why was PC Suite replace with Ovi (without same functionality)?
Is anything being done to fix Ovi Suite and give it better functionality?

Improve your UI software Nokia. Ovi Suite wasted m...

The E71 device/hardware is good. But, unless I was confused by Nokia website:
- The E71 user guide is poorly simplistic and should be improved;
- Nokia support is quasi inexistant: - Nokia web 'support' is not better than the marketing brochure, and Vodafone support is struggling as well;
- Nokia PC suite is OK, better than previous versions;
- Nokia Ovi suite is to be avoided: I spent 6 hours trying to make it work with no sensible result. No response from Nokia 'support' for my requests for help.
- I had to unload all Ovi applications and revert to the Nokia PC suite. More progress is needed in software Nokia. Less nice picture, more functionality that works.
- Ovi can't synchronise my PC Outlook with the calendar on my E71.
A telephone handset shouldn't be considered as a "computer game" or MP3 player: we have no time to waste. As a 15 years Nokia user I am trying not to go Blackberry but for how long?

NOKIA N8 -ovi suite keeps on giving a message to s...

I got an n8 recently and installed ovi suite on my PC by downloading the latest ovi suite version. I tries to sync the phone by connecting my phone thru USB cable. But the Ovi suite application says that set your device USB mode to ovi suite.The USB connection is already on ovi suite mode (actually that is the default USB mode on the phone). I cannot go any further as everytime i get a message to set the USB to OVI suite mode which it is already in.
I have already uninstalled ovi suite once and tried connecting the phone after re installation. But no luck.
The USB cable is fine as the PC detects the phone.
Help

Hello yashu.
To be able to help, we would like to know few things:
1. Is this first time you installed any Ovi Suite version to your PC ?
2. Have you tried to connect any other Nokia devices with Ovi Suite ?
If this was not first time:
3. Did you get your N8 connected with previous version of Ovi Suite?
4. Have you ever used your N8 with Bluetooth connection on that specific PC ?
Finally; Could you open registry editor on you PC and check device settings:
1. Choose Start->Run and type regedit <enter>
2. Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Nokia\Nokia Ovi Suite\Devices\<IMEI> where <IMEI> is your devices indentification. If there is no any other devices ever connected, there should be other devices. Alternatively you can check it from your device by "calling" to *#06#.
Copy value of key "FRIENDLYNAME" to answer (It may be empty too).
Thanks.

Nokia E71x - OVI Suite crashes if logged in to OVI...

I have a problem with Nokia OVI suite. I recently tried to set up contacts on OVI.com so it would sync with my phone to a web contacts package.
If I have OVI suite connected to my OVI account, and the 'Sync with your Nokia account in Ovi.com' option selected, OVI suite crashes. It works fine if I do not attempt to sync my contacts with OVI.com
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Nokia Ovi Suite software upgrade fails

I have a Nokia 5230 but my problem is yesterday when I tried to connect my laptop to the internet through my phone using Nokia's Ovi Suite. A message DEMANDED that I first upgrade my Ovi Suite software, which obviously I could not do as I could then not connect to the internet. When I got connected through an ADSL line, the upgrade is continually unsuccesful. Message reads I may not be on the internet - clearly false - and then check my firewall settings. I have turned my firewall OFF and I get the same message. Any advice?

Hunchback: frankly it's a little more than an annoyance, it's an audacity! I started up Ovi suite to quickly download some photos I urgently needed for a presentation to find that Nokia had hacked into my computer and made software I installed and depended on unusable. I'm not sure what the legal situation is but it is certainly very bad business practice to force an update on your customers. The update has been running for 20 minutes on my PC now and is obviously hanging. I will set up my firewall to prevent any further communication between my PC and Nokia's websites as I can not have you alter software on my PC unauthorized. Frankly I'm shocked that you have that kind of access to my machine.

Outlook Express and Ovi Suite syncing problems

Hi,
I just installed the Ovi Suite for my new N5230 phone.
I tested syncing contacts for the first time from Outlook Express to the phone and my account at Ovi.com via Ovi Suite. All went fine.
However, I undertook a major edit of all my Outlook Express contacts data (thankfully backing it up afterwards on my PC) but when I went to use the sync fucntion in Ovi Suite again I was not given an option of (a) whether to merge or replace or (b) where to start sync from if not a merge. Consequently my phone and Ovi.com contacts lists filled up with duplicates through a botched merge. Where a contact was deleted in Outlook Express no Sync Conflict message appeared to ask me if I wanted to delete the same entry in Ovi.
When I deleted all the contacts in Ovi Suite and tried to sync again my Outlook Express contacts list was deleted! Thankful for the backup before I started this waste of a Sunday afternoon.
So basically, is it the case that if I want to use Ovi Suite and Ovi.com for contacts then I have to use Ovi.com as the master list and not my contacts list in Outlook Express on my PC? If the software simply merges data all the time how the heck am I meant to delete a contact from all three storage areas?
Any advice appreciated.
Bill

Well for anyones information. Syncing with ovi suite.
I have successfully got ovi suite working.
For those with problems this is what I did. I have vista.
1. I uninstalled all programs from nokia.( ovi suite using the online uninstaller. Pc suite using the installed uninstall program.
then i ran pc suite cleaner.
2. using search for nokia then using advanced search for all nokia folders remaining (important to use advanced search or you will miss some of the folders and files. Then deleted them. Some you may have to change the user permissions to delete them. It is important to delete these as they hold data and i think might be one of the conflicts stopping sync working.
3. Delete any remaining files except bookmarks pics etc.
now there should be nothing on the pc.
Then download and run ccleaner. Cleaner and registry.
Reboot pc
Then download ovi suite.
A wizard might pop up but if not start ovi suite and connect your phone. I turned bluetooth off and used usb.
The phone will download settings. You can select pc suite on the sync settings in the phone. not ovi.com.
the program is good and worth the trouble. It saves your messages and contacts as well as syncing contacts and calendar with your required program, also bookmarks can be saved with firefox and explorer in your phone folder in favourites. It creates the folder. To transfer bookmarks from pc to phone ensure they are in this folder.
This took me a lot of reboots and time with a few calls to nokia and i am still waiting for their callback!!!
It also works fine on my xp computer too.

Ovi Suite Syncing Messages and Contacts

I have Ovi Suite installed on my desktop and laptop and both computers are not syncing contacts and messages, just keeps saying syncing messages do not disconnect, I've turned off the phone and back on again and sometimes that fixes the problem, turned off and on bluetooth and sometimes would fix the problem also but now whatever I do does not work. Also tried connecting via USB cable. I have also tried repairing, deleting the device on the phone and even gone back to Nokia PC Suite 7 and still nothing, can someone help me out here please?
Thanks

N97 mini not synching with Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2.1.2...

I've had my N97 mini for a few days and I was so hoping that it would be a better experience than the Sony Ericsson I had. Seems not.
Running Win7 32-bit, NOS 2.2.1.23, all software updated on PC and phone, but I just cannot get the phone to sync with the PC. When I connect the phone to the PC with the USB, it does its recognition, and all the Sync button light up and become live. But clicking them does nada.
The strange thing is that it has worked, when I first installed it on the PC.
Also, PC Suite does not start up when I connect the phone to my PC even though I've told PC Suite to start up when the phone is connected. What's going on?
And one last rant... why on earth is there no timed auto-sync facility on PC Suite?? Everytime I want to sync, I have to press buttons. Even my dumb Sony Ericsson software could do that!
Cheers,
Mart

Could you please follow this?
1. Uninstall Ovi Suite, PC Connectivity solution and Nokia Connectivity cable drivers from Add/remove program if anything is there.
2. Delete the files from here If anything is there
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Nokia\Ovi Suite
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Nokia
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\OviInstallerCache
3. Please search and download MSI clean up utility from microsoft website
Once installed please select the programs related to Nokia and click remove.
Restart Computer.
Then download from microsoft website and install Windows Installer, so that the installer is upto date.
4. Restart the PC
5. Download and Install latest OviSuite http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite
