Nokia photos: synchronization cancelled

After update the new 30.019 firmware in my N85, I'm not able to synchronize the phone with Nokia Photos.
The message, when trying to sync, is: "Synchronization cancelled" without error's detail.
If I try to open "Settings" from Nokia Photos, I get an "Updating nokia device view" on the bottom and then the program freeze (must kill the process with task manager).
I use Nokia Photos from 2004 (when it was LifeBlog with license ID), and it's important for me to have all pics/movies/sms stored in my pc.
I saw few topic about this argument (with different phones), but no one reply to solve it.
Any suggestion?

Factory settings reset. In standby, dial *#7780# and the phone's security code (the nokia's default security code is 12345). This reset restores phone's original settings.
Soft reset. In standby dial *#7370# and the phone's security code. Soft reset deletes ALL your phone's data.
Hard reset (the three key code/reset). Turn off the phone. Press and hold three keys together, the green/talk key, the * key and the number '3'.Then, turn on the phone and don't let the three keys before you see the nokia hands logo/nokia boot up screen.
For 5800 XM hard reset need different keys/buttons. The green/talk key, the red key and the camera key/button. The process is the same.Warning!Hard reset deletes ALL your phone's data/files!
And, for N97 go to /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=158831&query.id=591236#M158831

Nokia Photos Synchronization Cancelled with n97

Hi I tried the Synchronize function in Nokia Photos it starts to work then I get the error message "Synchronization Cancelled". Then I tried to synchronize using Ovi Office Suite but nothing seems to get transfered or changed.I am using the USB cable and Windows Vista anyone know how to reslove this

You were lucky then..I've tried the following and nothing works:
- Reinstall after full removal of Nokia Photos
- Hard reset phone with no backup restored
- Hard reset phone with an old backup restored
- Reinstall of latest firmware with no backup restored
- Reinstall of latest firmware with an old backup restored
I've also tried this on an XP PC and Vista PC, both work intermittently for a while then nothing, I've also tried multiple N97's and they are the same.
I've decided, primarily due to the lack of support from Nokia, that this is my last Nokia phone. In my opinion, shoddy phone software and badly written PC software has caused no end of customer dissatisfaction and I'm not putting up with it anymore.
Shame really, as the n97 had so much potential

Nokia N97 synchronization canceled and lost messag...

Hi all, I've a problem with my Nokia N97. I was using Ovi Suite, and trying to synchronize everything from my phone to the computer. The process started fine, but it was taking too long, and after more than one hour of processing, I was forced to leave my pc, and therefore I choosed to cancel the synchronization. It stopped, and after that I closed the application, turned off the computer, and disconnected the phone (I was using the USB cable).
After that, I found that on my phone there was no message at all. Every message and email was wiped. Even email settings were deleted.
Fortunately pictures and videos are still there.
But now I cannot find my messages anywhere.
Please is there someone who could help me?
Of course, I did no backup before.... as you will ask for...

if it can't be recognized in USB mass storage mode from your pc, then Nokia care must replace it in warranty period

Nokia Photos cant synchronize with my N95

Hi all
I used to use Nokia Lifeblog extensively to organize my multimedia from my N95 into my PC, but ever since I updated Nokia Lifeblog to Nokia Photos, the program gives an error when i try to synchronize any new media from my phone....Can any1 suggest wat to do? Can i reinstall Nokia Lifeblog on my phone in any way? The exact error it gives is:
Nokia Photos encountered synchronizing ur Nokia device and PC. Check the connection and start again. If the problem persists, restrt Nokia Photos and try again.
I tried reinstalling Nokia Photos but it gave the same error.
Can some1 pls suggest wat to do.....

Wondering if you found a fix for this problem. My nokia photo's will not sync either (even though the n95 is connected.) is it possible my lifeblog files got corrupted on my phone because everything from when I got the phone is in lifeblog on the n95? Is there any other way to tranfer the data to nokia photo's maybe a work around? in my event log it states:
"The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( Nokia Photos ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Synchronization failed.
Exeption type:
Nokia.NokiaPhotos.ClassLibrary.MPlatformException
Exception message:
External component has thrown an exception."
on my old computer everything worked fine, lifeblog synced and there was no missing driver errors. I updated the time line and marked everything as favorites...tried to install dpinst.exe from the pc connectivity folder and there is a driver failed ton install error. I'm at the end of my rope. Any help would be greatly aprreciated.

Transfer Nokia Photos data to another PC

Hello,
I have Nokia Photos on my current PC and I want to transfer its data to my new one.
I could have done it with my phone but I keep on deleting things from my phone
or I could have simply copied all data from my current PC to the new one but I don't know where Nokia Photos has saved my Messages.
Is there anyway where i can get nokia photos on the new PC to Synchronize all my old data ??

Nokia Photos 'Timeline Corruption'

Hi Folks
I have installed the latest version of Nokia Photos Application on my Windows XP PC; upon first use I was asked if I wanted to import data from LifeBlog Application - which I did - and when I now view my text messages in the Photos Timeline tab they are all corrupted and unreadable.
Does anyone know a way of resetting this and importing them again? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but neither have proven successful - just bring up the same corrupted list.
Many thanks in advance

Hi,
There is a little "trick" that you can do to get the items to be synchronized again. Select the items that you want to be synchronized with your phone's Lifeblog and mark them as favorites (Options -> Make favourite). Now synchronize the phone with Nokia Photos (or PC Lifeblog) and the items are transferred to PC. After synchronization you can remove the favorite status of those items (PC and phone).
The trick here is that you must modify somehow the items metadata in phones Lifeblog. This will trigger that those items are send to pc when the phone is next time synchronized. The change could also be some other modification of metadata than making items favourites (e.g. change the title), but personally I think the "favorite trick" is the easiest way to do it.

Neither Nokia Photos or OVI is syncing

Hi,
I cannot sync from my N82. If I connect to Photos, it recognises my phone. I ask for a sync and it (almost) immediately flashes up "Synchronisation Cancelled". I have tried rebuilding the timeline and downloading the latest versions but neither has worked.
I also cannot get Ovi to sync. When I try to sync, no files are copied from the phone and the following Windows error appeared:

I have a problem with my N85 sycning photos to to my PC with Ovi/Nokia Photos. It was all working fine until I needed to get my facia replaced. In the process the care center did a factory reset and I lost all contacts / sms etc in my phone. At this time I updated the firmware to 20.175. Once I had restored all contacts etc from outlook I wanted to sync the new photos I had taken in the mean time to my PC via ovi suite. However, ovi could not see the new photos. On looking in the photo gallery on my N85 i could see that the old photos were no longer classified as captured, but simply appeared in the all images category. What I don't get is that Ovi will only try to sync the old photos and not the ones that have the status as captured.
Anybody got any ideas?

Problems with Nokia Photos (Lifeblog)

I have been using Lifeblog 2.5 on my PC running on Windows XP sp2 for more than 2 years and was very pleased with how this software worked. I regularly used it to transfer both photos and videos from my N80 and N95 to my pc. When Lifeblog was premium software I paid for the full version.
I had a problem with my PC and had to perform a destructive recovery on the C drive of my pc. I then tried to download the Lifeblog program again from Nokia only to be met with a SORRY greeting. So i was able to find the Nokia Photos software which I downloaded and installed. I then imported my Back up files from Lifeblog.
The problem with Nokia Photos is Videos do not play. Only SMS and Photos can be viewed even though I have ticked all the boxes.
I think that Nokia must have some problems with Lifeblog and Nokia Photos. Any help as to how I may be able to get it to work as well as it was before would be greatly appreciated.

I have since reinstalled all the XP framework software and it seems to work fine now.
Thanks for your advice.

Nokia Photos wont open/load. help! (Event Details...

Hey guys!
First off, I really, really need this data to be recovered so any help would be appreciated....ok so....
In short: I have a n95 8gb. I store texts, messages, etc on Lifeblog/Photos. I was using Nokia Lifeblog until they made us download Nokia Photos. Since then I've used Nokia Photos. Now apparently Ovi's the new thing and Photos support ended.
When I open Photos, nothing happens after the splashscreen. I've tried installing the latest version; didnt work. I restored it back to the old. Here is the Windows Event Log. I run Windows XP Pro SP 3. Please help me figure out what this means and how to fix it..
Thank you in advance! Any help in helping me to find the destination files for the text messages or opening the program with be greatly appreciated!

N97 unable to install nokia photos

Hi
Im having a problem with installing nokia photos on pc. tried it from a cd and by download neither worked
i also have that microsoft framework needed as they say but still nothing Any suggestions ?
thx very much

Error code 1722 is an indication that some Windows Installer custom action failed to run. Could you download http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/nseries/phones/software/NokiaPhotosMultilingual.exe and run it with command line: NokiaPhotosMultilingual.exe /V"/L*v C:\Setup.log" ? Analysing the log file should give us a hint which custom action failed and why.

Geo tagging in Nokia Photos

Hi,
I have Nokia N 82, v 31.0.016. For some of my geo-tagged pictures, after syncing with Nokia Photos, if i want to see my geo-tagged picture in Show item in Map View, i am able to see the picture in Map view of Nokia Photos, but in Timeline view, if i try to flip the same photos which is geo-tagged, it will not show the location where it is taken, Is it a bug ? For geo-tagged image why the location is not stored default on tags ? Will it be useful, if geo-tagged pictures location tag is updated automatically? Or it has to be made as Manual to store the location tag for all the images which are already geo-tagged? Hope it sounds clear ...

Nokia Photos - Is anybody still using it?

More and more people think Ovi Suite has lost its focus - to become the main software to manage a Nokia phone. I do not know what went wrong with it - perhaps the need to create a software that is simple to configure/use, comparing to Nokia PC Suite, but it's clear to me, this is not what Ovi Suite is...
Although, I admit that using Nokia software was not always so frustrating: I do remember how I felt when I first used Nokia Lifeblog - later it became Nokia Photos. I had paid in order to use it when it came out - still, I have no remorse for it - because the idea of managing your phone content over a timeline was amazing! When Nokia Lifeblog was replaced with Nokia Photos, for a moment I thought that's it; I would not be able to manage my phone's content anymore. Nevertheless, the misleading name, had nothing to do with what the software was offering...
Today, a friend suggested to see KIN.com - I was amazed with KIN Studio - a Nokia Lifeblog/Nokia Photo replica in Silverlight, that is offered for Windows Mobile powered phones. It looks like that Microsoft found the "phone content over timeline" idea more interesting, and they are investing on it - Nokia that originally come up with the idea is done with it, as Nokia Photos is an "archived" application!
Is anybody still using Nokia Photos? Does anyone think that the "phone content over timeline" idea should be something Nokia should be invest on, and this would be the idea to use for a software like Ovi Suite?
Regards,
George J.

Hey George,
I like the concept but, like everything else Nokia does, its just poor execution. They started Lifeblog, ok cool. Then came Photos; ok same concept. Now they've completely ditched Photos and gone to Ovi suite. They dont get the fact that people want to archive there data, not just switch to the latest gimmick. At least offer an effective way to smoothly transfer data. Argh!! so frustrating!
I have my earlier data on Lifeblog and my latest data on Photos (thank god I didn't merge the two). Photos wont open anymore And Nokia is pathetically useless in the matter. There market share worldwide will diminish pretty soon, thanks to Google and Apple
Here's the post with my issue:
