Nokia Ovi Suite - Computer Transfer

I've just changed the hard drive on my laptop and I've just installed Ovi Suite on my new hard drive. However all of my contacts, and messages have gone. Is this a feature of transferring Ovi Suite between computers or is all the information there somewhere on my laptop, and I just don't know where to find it!?
Cheers

Transfer Nokia Ovi Suite 2 Data to Another Compute...

Hi Everyone,
I've been using the Ovi Suite for a while now specifically for synching all my text messages. I have a new laptop and I would like to transfer the SMS data synched in my old pc right now through the Ovi Suite. How do I go about this? Most of them are already deleted in my phone so I think I need to extract or migrate the database files from my old pc to the new one.
I'm using an N79. Here's the other details:
Nokia Ovi Suite 2.0.0.10
Nokia Photos 1.3.15.0
PC Connectivity Solution 9.38.0.0
Connectivity Cable Driver 7.1.20.0
Nokia Ovi Suite Software Updater 2009.40.0.60128
Maps Service API 3.0.35.0
Nokia mPlatform 2.5.168
Ovi Desktop Sync Engine 1.0.0.684
Operating system:
Microsoft Windows Vista 32-bit Edition, Service Pack 2
Language: English
Many thanks.

Hi,
You currently have very old Ovi Suite version. My recommendation is that you update the version to the most recent one (www.ovi.com) which is Nokia Ovi Suite 3.0.0.290.
I don't recommend you transfer these old components to new PC and then use them with new Ovi Suite version. They may even end up not working at all...
You have two quick solutions to use (with new version):
1) You can just drag and drop all the messages to your device and then when connecting with the new PC drag and drop them back (if it is a clean PC then you can use also message sync functionality for transfering)
2) In the new version of the Ovi Suite you have export/import messages functionality available which you can use to export the messages to e.g. .csv file. You can then transfer that to new PC and import the messages from there.

Hey Dude,

Comments for Nokia Ovi Suite

I just got my new C7 several days ago and started to experience this nice smartphone. I am using the software Nokia Ovi Suite to download maps for C7 which is helpful.
In geernal, this software feels like iTure for Mac products. I have some suggestions to improve it as following:
1) I hope to download maps on the computer by Ovi Suite, and then transfer them to the cell phone. If I can do so, I do not need to connect cell phone with the computer for a long time and I can quickly update and delete the maps in the cell phone by local map files on the computer.
2) I hope to use Ovi Suite to mange pictures, videos and others. Not only copy files from the cell phone but also append the files into the phone. The best way would be use the Ovi Suite as a library and synchronize it with the cell phone.
Tony

What step by step!? I thurn on my computer and Nokia Ovi Suite grabs 180MB of RAM!
For last 3 years I was using Nokia 6233 – Nokia PC Suite – Microsoft Outlook combination. Recant I transfer to Nokia 2700 classic – Nokia Ovi Suite – Mozilla Thunderbird combination and I am real unsatisfied.
Nokia 2700 is just a shadow of 6233 model. Catastrophically weak camera and lack of calendar on the main screen are my biggest complain.
Nokia Ovi Suite is bloatware. Sync with Thunderbird (Lightning) or Ovi page is problematic or unexisting. Even the some simple function hasn't work, like grouping messages by the sender (John Doe and John Abc can't be the same person).
I don't think that I have actual problem, this is just a case of a poor programing and optimization of the program.

Maps 3.08 won't work in Nokia Ovi Suite 3.1.1.85

I am having problems trying to get the Maps to work in Nokia Ovi Suite. When I click on the maps I get a mesage that tells you that the map application is still open in your phone and asks you to close it but, in fact, Ovi Maps is definitely NOT running; then there is a key on the screen asking to retry and when you do that the following message appears:
"Something's gone wrong. There's a problem with Nokia Ovi Suite. Restart your computer. If the problem won't go away, uninstall Nokia Ovi Suite and download the latest version of the application from www.nokia.com/ovisuite." Been there, done that, I have the latest Ovi Suite software (3.1.1.85) and the latest phone's firmware and the map application is definitely closed but still I'm unable to connect to the map's server when my phone is connected.
I also want Symbian Anna!!!!!

'Nokia PC Suite' & 'Nokia Ovi Suite' for my Nokia ...

'Nokia Pc Suite' & 'Nokia Ovi Suite' are same softwer?
Bcz my nokia C1-01 have nokia ovi suite, when my computer install Nokia pc suite & connect, then my mobile display show 'nokia ovi suite' & 'mass storage' when click 'nokia ovi suite' can't find my mobile in my computer!
why??
Moderator's note: We provided a topic-related to the subject to the post so other users can easily identify and answer the concern.

The USB mode in your Nokia might be called Modem, PC Suite or Nokia Suite, or even Nokia Ovi Suite. In your phone, all these four USB modes are the same.
The PC Suite and the Nokia Suite are two different software titles which can be used in parallel. Furthermore, the Nokia Suite is the successor of (replaced) the Nokia Ovi Suite.
Before you download and install all these software, I recommend to install the latest Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver first.
If that did not help, please, plug-in your Nokia, select that Suite mode, and go to to Windows » Start » Contol Panel (» Hardware » Devices) » Device-Manager » USB » right-click on your Nokia » Update Driver Software. Did that help?

Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2.1.23 sync outlook 2003 broken

A new version of OVI = a new host of problems. When are you going to get it right Nokia! Pathetic! I cannot believe how much time I have had to waste to get this fixed.
Ok, enough of the rant. Now for my solution:
Uninstall Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2.1.23 + USB Connectivity driver + Software Updater i.e. anything that is called “Nokia …”
Reboot.
Run the Nokia PC Suite Cleaner – I used Nokia_PC_Suite_Cleaner_7_1_1.exe
Reboot.
Install Nokia Ovi Suite 2.2.0.245, or whatever version you were using before that actually worked.
One other thing I did was turn my anti-virus off for each step but this may not be necessary. My OS is XP SP3.

I am not sure whether this will work for you but please try it one.
1. Uninstall Ovi Suite, PC Connectivity solution and Nokia Connectivity cable drivers from Add/remove program if anything is there.

Fine tunning the new Nokia Ovi suite 2.0.2.42

Hi,
I just installed Nokia Ovi suite and have configured some settings but the followings are either not available or can't be configured:
SMS , call and battery notifications are missing as compared to Nokia PC Suite
Calendar cannot be viewed , I can only see (contacts , photos , messaging and Music) on the home screen
Device backup time cannot be set
Sync period with MS Outlook cannot be set
Calendar items that are older than 4 weeks cannot be synced
Under tools - options - device sync , I didn't select the message folder to be synced but the software has already synced SMS messages between the phone and computer! I didn't want to do that
Cannot create MMS message as opposed to Nokia PC Suite
In short the interface is cool but there are many features that are available in Nokia PC suite that are missing from Nokia Ovi suite
Any fix to any of the above issues would be appreciated

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
