Nokia PC Suite finds no connection types

Hi,
first of all, the link to the PC Suite FAQ in the sticky thread at the top of the forum is broken.
I have a recurring problem with every version of PC Suite I installed during the previous 6 months on my Win XP Pro SP3 machine: When PC Suite is installed, everything works fine, but after some reboots, from one day to another, suddenly there are no more connection types available. Normally, you can select three connections types: cable, infrared, or bluetooth. All three are greyed out, and remain unselectable.
Reinstalling the Nokia cable driver doesn't help, repairing PC Suite doesn't either. I have to completely deinstall PCSuite, run PC Suite cleaner, reboot my PC, install everything from scratch, and then it works again for some days. During the last six months, I had to do this procedure 8 times.
Something seems to be terribly broken with PC Suite, at least on this very configuration. What can I do to prevent this? The version of PC Suite always is the latest one available when this error occurred, and I did a reinstallation.

As per one of my friends suggestion,
Just Go to "services.msc"
Search for a service called Servicelayer and Make it start automatically
Now Your PC Suite or Ovi Suite will detect the connections in your PC..

Nokia Ovi Suite has lost connection with your devi...

5 months has passed and many hours on the phone to Nokia. The phone has been completely reset /reboot by Nokia time and time again and still the phone gets this message when trying to update software..."Nokia Ovi Suite has lost connection with your device"....We were optimistic that the software upgrade would solve the other problems we are having with all the Nokia phones at work. They are all E52's

Having the same issue currently with an E72 software version is 054.005.266.02 and Ovi Suite 3.1.1.80
Actually I had connection lost all the time with all previous versions of Ovi Suite too... it has never been reliable.
Using original Nokia USB cable, connected securely. Tried different PCs, different USB ports, same issue.
Just now I'm trying software update and it looses connection during the backup process all the time... very disappointing. Screenshot attached if anybody is interested.

E71 - Nokia PC Suite - does not connect ? unable t...

I installed Nokia PC Suite (v7.1) on my PC's:
Connected Nokia E71 with USB-cable
(Mass Storage > Via Windows Explorer I can see the directories on the memory card of the E71)
Problem-1: Nokia PC Suite gives error: "unable to find device"
(while phone is unlocked, USB mode is not applicable)
Problem-2: Also Nokia Software Updater does not work (cannot find device)
Happens both on XP and Vista PC.
In other words... I can't access my E71 at all. Who knows a solution ?

Hi, i just ran into the same problem with the "Device Not Found" I will give the steps for what fixed my problem.
Connect the phone to your computer via data cable. Select "Connect Pc to Web". Then, inside the folders run the installer.exe** and select Repair instead of Uninstall. Now your device should work like a charm.
**If the installer.exe interrupts you saying that the version installed on the computer is newer than what you are trying to install and exits itself, you will have to go to control panel to uninstall Nokia Pc Suite and reinstall it with the phone you plan on using so it will be the correct version. Even after you reinstall Nokia Pc Suite you may have to run the installer.exe a second time and select repair before it will work. I did anyways.
I hope this fixes your problems you are having. Also the reason it is hard to get tech support for stuff like this is because when you can connect your mobile internet to the pc you can use a lot of data because you have more access to things. Eventhough you may have an unlimited data plan most if not all companies will ban your phone possibly without notice if you use more data then they want you too. Also tethering, which is what we are all trying to do. Is illegal for most if not all phone companies. Always best to read the Terms and Conditions.
As far as the USB not beeping when connecting the cable. I didn't hear mine either but it worked but if yours isn't working try this: Start -> Right-Click Computer -> Properties -> Device Manager-> Check all USB devices to make sure they are working properly and you may need to reinstall them.
Please reply to let me know if anything worked. If it did please check solution button to allow other people to find my post. Thanks for any replys to my post.

PC Suite says no connection types available - but ...

I've a 6500 Slide. I've installed the latest PC Suite 7.0.8.2.
I have Windows XP with Service Pack 3.
I used to be able to connect with PC Suite and update (etc.) but recently, after the most recent PC Suite upgrade, it doesn't recognise 'CONNECTION TYPES' on my machine.
The USB cable and port work fine - in Windows I can drag and drop files.
So why won't PC Suite recognise the cable and allow me to use the mobile through PC Suite?
I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice.
I've removed batteries and SIM cards from the mobile etc.
All help gratefully received.
Thanks

I have the same problem too...may be its the new pc suits problem....
i uninstalled the new one and installed an older version but my problem got worse...now my N70 hardware wount even install...
It says, unable to install n70 USB phone parent ....
Please give a solution...

Nokia Ovi Suite can't connect to Internet

Hi
I was using an old version of Ovi that come with my N95 in a CD.
I'm trying to update my N95 with a new firmware and that request to update Ovi.
After the update I can't login to Ovi in order to update.
There's any problem that Ovi software can't connect or something else.
Obviously, I'm connected to the Internet.
BTW... where's the spanish forum or help assistance?
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem on pc in the office. I uninstalled and installed the old ovi suite 2, but it dosn`t work. When You connect Your phone it will do, but connect to Your Ovi account through the telefone. I havn`t got any answer until today.
I use Nokia 5230, want to connect to my Ovi account also, when the phone isnt connected to the pc. I hope, we will got a resolution.
By installing the old Ovi suite there are only problems with winxp, it dosn`t work really. Thank everyone for help or answer. philipp

Find Wireless Network Connection type

Hi,
How can I find the connection type (a/b/g/n) of my wireless connection? There is nothing in the Network Preferences.
Thanks

G'day,
There are three main methods that I know of:
1) Hold the Option key while clicking on the Airport icon in the menu bar. This will give you the link speed.
2) Open "Network Utility", Click on "Info" and select Network Interface en1. This will also give you the link speed.
3) Open "Terminal" and enter (on one line, followed by pressing return):
*/system/library/privateframeworks/apple80211.framework/versions/current/resourc es/airport -I*
(that is an uppercase "i" at the end, not a "one").
This will give a range of useful information about the current connection.
Cheers,
Rodney

E5: Ovi Suite has lost connection with your device...

I am trying to update the software on my E5 using OVI suite but I keep getting an error during the install phase (after backup). The following error and instructions are displayed in the OVI suite window but makes no difference when I follow these instructions (just end up back with the same error).
"Nokia Ovi Suite has lost connection with your device. Follow these steps to help reconnect your device:
1. Remove USB cable from your device.
2. Restart the device (turn off and on again).
3. Re-insert the USB cable.
4. Click 'Ok' below to continue updating."
Current E5 software version is 042.007.
I am trying to update to E5 software v. 043.115
Any ideas?

Yep having the same issue. Just got a replacement handset due to the random restarting issue, soon after setting up the new handset I get a message on phone saying software update is available. Both OVI suite and Nokia software updater say version 43.115 is available (about 200mb in size), I currently have the same version as you 42.007. It claims to do a lot of improvements to the handset. The update downloads fine but when it comes to installing I keep getting the same issue. Phone simply will not restart automatically and the update restarts then fails at the same point over and over. Had the same problem with my previous handset.
I spoke with my network provider to see if it was an issue with the handset needing firmware specific to them but they said no it is an issue with the firmware itself and has been happening to everyone since its release!!! They said I should not download it until Nokia has resolved the issues with it. But how do I know when that will happen as I cannot find anything put out by Nokia stating there is an issue or anywhere on web forums saying there is actually a problem.

Nokia PC Suite not detecting my N79 via USB.

Hello!
Got my N79 yesterday and having a bit of a problem with getting the Nokia PC Suite finding it. The program tells me to plug in the phone and when i do this nothing happens. I'm connecting via USB with a CA-101 cable.
Have tried reinstalling the Pc Suite a couple of time and same with the USB connectivity drivers.
I'm using XP Pro x64 SP2 on my PC and the Nokie PC Suite version is 7.1.26.0.
Any solutions?
Regards
Erik

Is the settings in your N79 for the data cable set to "PC Suite Mode" or "Always Ask on Connection"?
Did you try a different PC?
Is the phone getting detected as a removable drive when you connect it in Mass storage mode?

Nokia Ovi Suite v1.1 - Content not showing in Gall...

Hi all,
Hope you can all help...! I'm really struggling here.
Using Nokia Ovi Suite v1.1,connection to N97 works fine and all - but when I drag and drop content to the 'Gallery' view, it displays that files already exist - and nothing shows!
Should any of you require further clarification, I will attach screen dumps accordingly... Would really appreciate if anyone who have encountered similar problems to also post, as well as their solutions?!?
...It would be a real shame to have a N97 and no content on it, I'm sure you feel for me?!?
Thanks in advance.

Has no one got a response for this? No one has ever encountered a similar problem?
I find that... odd.

Nokia PC Suite installation error - how to uninsta...

Hi,
New here. Recently bought E51 with Nokia PC Suite 6.85.14.1 provided. I use Windows XP Professional Edition SP 2.
I have a previous version of the Suite installed (6.4.8). I tried to uninstall (before installing the new version). After uninstalling and rebooting my PC, somehow the 6.4.8 version of the Suite still resides in my PC. Using "Start | All Programs", the Nokia folder still appear with the following 4 items:
- Nokia PC Suite
- Readme
- Uninstall Nokia PC Suite
- User's Guide for Nokia POC Suite
I clicked on "Uninstall Nokia PC Suite", it will ask me to reboot to complete the uninstallation. But the Nokia folder still appear after rebooting. When I click on "Control Panel" to Add/Remove Programs, the Nokia PC Suite and PC Connectivity Solution are displayed with no "Remove" button.
I think there were some problems in the uninstallation process.
Now when I try to install the newer version (6.85.14.1), it will display the following error message and needs to halt the installation process:
"This version of PC Connectivity Solution cannot be used with the current installed version of Nokia PC Suite. Update or uninstall Nokia PC Suite before trying to install PC Connectivity Solution again."
Can someone help me what I should do? Install the older 6.4.8 again and uninstall it? I no longer have the CD. Where can I get the installation program? Or try the latest version 6.86.9.0?

Hi devotion22,
What you can do is uninstall Nokia Connectivity cable driver, PC Connectivity solution and PC Suite (if you have reinstalled the latest one), then if you have any reputed PC Cleaner which is reliable cleaner, clean your PC. Delete unwanted files from your pc, then reinstall the latest nokia PC Suite from nokia site and then start using Nokia PC Suite.
