Nokia N8 memory and Microsoft Apps

Hi everyone,
I have a nokia N8, with its (c:/) 250M phone memory. I won't mention the little space problem on this phone (compared to 500M on C7 for example). But I just want to talk about the problem of Microsoft Apps monsterous volume on phone memory (taking more than 50M). Even worse, These apps CAN NOT be uninstalled. I tried from the menu list with a long press and I don't have the (delete) option. I tried from setting>installations>installed apps but microsoft apps don't even show there...
so this is just a little message for guys in Nokia, next time you force some update on phones (it wasn't optional for me, it came with Belle) keep in mind that the phone u manufactured has a very limited memory, or at least give people the option to delete what they dont need. I have now like 50M left on my phone memory and its performance is degrading more and more (repeated freezing especially when using nokia browser).
thnx a lot

I saw this post, and away from the fact that this is a 3rd party solution (not nokia product), you can read the bottom of the solution page:
"Despite this fact some 8-10 MB of phone memory is consumed after installation of Microsoft Apps (may be due to modification of System files). And unfortunately this space is not recovered even after completely removing the Apps by the above method. The only way to get back that space is by formatting the phone or re-installing Belle via Nokia Suite."
I applied that and deleted the MS apps and gained nothing on my phone memory... apparently the damage is beyond my ability to repair it...
Hence my message for Nokia Guys, next time you make any updates, KEEP in mind that we dont have much memory left and the performance is going down cuz of this...

E7 and Microsoft Apps

I noticed that Nokia Suite is no longer listing Microsoft Apps as a 'Software Update'.
I did not install it when it first came up, as I do not think I need it.
Is this suite being phased out for the E7 since it is no longer listed as an update?

Hello. Hopefully someone can help me with this question (sorry it's a bit of a long story). I recently sent my E7 to be repaired and they had to flash it. The returned phone is on Symbian Belle FP 1 (I think they call it FP1), no complaints When I sent the phone to be repaired I was using the Office apps, in particular Word, but when they sent it back, Quickoffice was installed. Which is fine since they had to flash the phone.
I recently downloaded the Office apps suite from the Nokia Store, in order to reinstall them, but none of the Office suite (Word, Excel) were installed. I just tried to download it again, but this time it seems to download, but won't install.
Do I need to uninstall QuickOffice first?
If I do uninstall Quickoffice, but back up my phone first, will I be able to restore Quickoffice if I need to?
Thanks.

Email on Nokia 700 changed after Microsoft Apps. H...

After installing Microsoft Apps on Nokia 700 (111.030.0609) the standard email client changed look and feel. And it just refuses to open url links from html mail.
I removed Microsoft Apps, but old email client styling was not restored.
I made hard reset, but the client is the same.
Please, how can I get my old email client back? I don't like the new white background and changed buttons.
Please, help me!

Maybe not possible to go back to old email unless Nokia provides any in Nokia store.
I have installed quick office pro and office word files are not opening!
Hope that Nokia and Microsoft release Office apps soon to read and edit office files.
Hope it also includes direct .txt editor too.

Nokia 808 after reinstall : Microsoft APPS

Hello guys,
I want to reinstall the OS on my 808 because I am giving it away and would like it to be completely restored as when new. I was wondering if once reinstalled I can have the Microsoft apps back (M Office Mobile is what I am more interested in) by receiving again the software update. Thanks

Adobe and Microsoft apps are crashing. iWork colors are corrupt.

I'm not sure if this is due to the Snow Leopard upgrade or because I had a HDD meltdown and restored from a time machine backup.
Every other app that I open is crashing. Microsoft Excel and Adobe Photoshop are crashing at will (in the background) and often when trying to save a file. Photoshop was giving me a license error but I resolved that with various hacks found online including deleting the FLEXnet folder.
iWork apps don't show proper colors with fonts, shapes, cell fills, etc. Most colors are showing as white. Blue is really the only color that is visible though it's not the correct blue.
Of course this is all on the eve of me having to finish a project onsite 1,000 miles from home. I'm pretty much stuck without the ability to do ANY work here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this by re-applying the10.6.1 stand alone update

Nokia Social, Chat and others app that won't conne...

Guys, I finally resolved this issue which I had on my phone since I've updated to Nokia Belle.
Background details are: Bulgaria > Firmware customized for MTEL (Operator).
So, after this successful attempt of fixing things, the conclusion is that the branded firmware was faulty.

Dashboard - a memory and bandwidth hog?

Hello everyone,
This is a general question about widgets really, concerning how much of a memory and bandwidth hog they are.
I only have a few widgets on my Dashboard, as I'm worried they'll slow my Mac down. Can this happen, and does it only happen when I 'invoke' the Dashboard?
Also, as some connect to the internet, are they a bandwidth hog? (and again, are they only 'on' when the Dashboard is invoked, or always connected in the background?).
Many thanks for any advice!
Ben

So are these things always running in the background, or only when I chose to bring Dashboard to the fore?The first time you activate Dashboard after log in. Try it. Logout then, back in and check Activity Monitor, then activate Dashboard and check AM.
With AM you can always keep an eye on your memory and quit apps, even if they may not "force quit". However, the way OS X handles memory you shouldn't have a problem unless you're doing heavy lifting like music/video edit.

Safari and other apps reload when switched to from some other app.

Okay so i have safari, twitter and facebook apps opened and i am currently updating twitter. In between i jump to facebook by twice pressing the home button on my iPhone 4s running iOS7. What happens now is that facebook reloads and i am shown my home page even when i was on a friends fb page. I switch back to twitter and now twitter app reloads and show me the homepage and not the search i was doing earlier. I jumped to safari to search for this and safari app reloads and a page that i had earlier opened gets reload..
This is what is happening with all the applications. Is this normal? I have already disable background app refresh option in settings.

Apple does not tell you that IO7 64bit is memory hungry and the memory on iphone/ipads are 1GB . Basically the iOS7 is running out of memory and reloading apps otherwise os will hang. Apple ***** for not informing their users also current devices come with 1GB memory and they never disclose it at any of their events going to 64bit the forgot basic concepts , they are becoming a fashion company not a technology any more.

Problem with installing Microsoft Apps on Nokia e7

Hey Guys
I have a nokia E7 with Belle update , previously I had the Microsoft apps installed on my phone and for some reasons I had to do a full format and restore of my phone. My phone restore was only SMS and contacts.
Then I tried installing the Microsoft apps again and after the installer file downloads , it ask me if it can download a 21 MB file , so I press yes and then it says " the connection was lost , canceling the installation "
I am sure my network connections are OK, all the other applications download and install perfectly and I have tried it over 3G and Wifi. To be sure I did factory reset and it did not work.
even when it creates an icon for smart installer , the same thing happens.
I have tried anything it reached my mind and did not work, do you guys have anything else that might work?

I have to say I did the hard reset with *#7370# , and before that I had formatted the mass memory as well, so after all that the phone was just like the first day I got it.
Have a horrid feeling that your formatting mass memory has achieved same result as "hard reset" especially if you can't access Nokia Store upon device. Nokia Care facility can re-install software completely including eMMC content which truly returns device to "Out of box" state.
Have you tried "Googling" for "Microsoft Apps 2.01 (5616)"?
You will need to install Pixi enablers first, if I remember it correctly.

Microsoft Apps, Nokia E6

Microsoft apps just showed up in my software updater.
Has any other E6 user installed this?
Looking for comments/Reviews.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

A couple of immediate impressions:
First, that that installation went very smoothly. Second is that (before opening any of the apps) comparing available memory using PhoNetInfo showed that the amount of available RAM I have has increased from 118,244 kByte to 134,156 kByte (purely an observation).
Wrting in Word the lag was noticable at more than just a snail's pace, but the "large" writing space was good. I have set my phone's font sizes more or less in accordance with an article on the E6 by Steve Litchfield, which I would recommend to all. The doc I named and saved "wasn't there" when I wanted to send (it is a bit historic, like, writing in Word on a Nokia Symbian phone...
All the logins have passed over my head as I don't yet have my Office 2010 set up for online use at all, and I have no idea what Lync is...
Any good locations for startup guides, etc., anyone?

Microsoft Apps for Nokia N8

Hi I got Nokia N8 (Product code 0599255, Software v: 111.030.0609 india). I have been tring for Microsoft apps for a long time but i still haven't got any update. Please halp.

Unfortunately, I use office 365, and it does not support OC, only the new clients can connect to that.
El4rcangel wrote:
Beware, even when your company had OC and/or Lync, check with your network admin to see if they installed already infrastructure to support lync mobile. Otherwise you will have the client on the mobile but will not connect to the servers. OC Mobile still connects to both, OC servers and Lync because it goes over old SSL channels instead of new connection that uses Lync mobile as mandatory.

Microsoft Apps 2.01 and Mail

I installed Microsoft apps through nokia suite, but chose to remove them as they took up too much space. This was very tricky but I eventually found a work around, however, I lost access to my e-mail client in the process. The app is there, but it can't be opened. Is there anyway I can re-download the e-mail app?

Hi jk95,
What device are you currently using? As we do not recommend removing the Microsoft Apps using "work arounds" because it may harm your device. Have you tried the following reset options?
Soft Reset:
Enter into your keypad *#7780# and when prompted, enter the default passcode 12345. If you have changed the code, it will be the code you changed it to.
A backup will not be needed as this will not delete any data.
Hard Reset:
This will erase all data on your device, so a backup is recommended before you do this.
Once backed up, enter *#7370# and when prompted, enter 12345 as the default passcode.
Let us know how you get on..
Regards,
haZey

Microsoft apps is not available in nokia suite.

How can I get microsoft apps back on my phone?

hi, i just bought online my microsoft mac edition point, word, outlook and excel, with the download came two microsoft apps which i try to delete and i cant delete them, how do i do?

I don't believe you read Victor's question CT.
Victor,
Anyway, Office comes with an Uninstaller in its Microsoft Office folder found in your Applications folder, if you wish to remove office. You have to quit all open applications. command-tab keyboard combination will tell you most things that are open. Without knowing which Mac OS X version you have, we can't tell you for certain how to tell if other things are running as Apple's utilities have varied across operating system version. One thing you can do, is reboot the machine in safe mode, holding the shift key down. This forces memory resident programs not to run. Then you can simply drag and drop the applications to the trash that don't have an installer. Be aware though, if you go back to install them, they may not handle it well if a different version was on the machine earlier.
