OVI fails to connect to Nokia N8-00 on "Checking t...

Hi All,
I'm having problems connecting OVI to a Nokia N8-00 handset via Bluetooth.
The Add New Device wizard is able to detect the phone but when selecting it from the list and proceeding it stays on "Checking the Bluetooth capabilities of your device." for some 20 seconds after which it eventually fails with the error of "Failed to connect to your device. Problems occured while authorising the Bluetooth connection between your device and computer."
I've verified that both devices are configured as authorised by their respective counterpart.
Also tried to remove the pairing from both the laptop and phone and re-pair them again - same problem.
I am able to sync the phone with OVI via USB no problem.
I am also able to use my OVI with another Nokia phone (E72) via Bluetooth without any issues.
This points me to a possible problem with Bluetooth on the N8 phone itself but I don't have any way to prove it.
I wonder if anybody else has experienced the same issue?
OVI version 3.0.0.290
N8-00 version 013.016
Thanks, Jan

OVI is A BUG! I'm using PC suite with an old version 7.1.40.6 (still compatible with the N8) which wor'ks great with my N8 for more than a year. Time to time I update OVI to check if the known bugs are fixed but since new are coming it is a no end situation. I have had a N95 and a N97 before which never either worked properly with OVI and Outlook 97, 2003 & 2010.
How CAN THAT BE Mr NOKIA?
Because of this, I'm closed to give up with this good phone supplier offering a VERY WEAK software support to its clients!
Good luck to all of you still patient ...

    All bluetooths stack versions, OVI versions, PC Suite versions are same as those of another laptop which connects well over bluetooth.
    By the way still, my Win7 Home Premium's OVI's system info tells that it is using Microsoft Bluetooth Stack Version 6.1.7600 build 16385 (Active & In Use).
    PLS DO HELP. OTHERWISE I'VE NO OPTION BUT TO LOOK FOR ANOTHER SYMBIAN 3 DEVICE. I DON'T WANT TO PART WITH MY N8 OR MY ACER ICONIA TABLET.
    Note: This problem seems only with N8 because I've tried other nokia models. They all connect well. But I've also tried another N8, that also DIDN'T CONNECT. What the heck problem is with N8.
    Wish#1: MP3 Tag Editor capable of editing ratings.
    Wish#2: Android type Video player, highly efficient player capable of playing all formats.
    Wish#3: Without Google Maps (and products), no gadget is worth keeping.

  • SCCM 2012: failed to connect to distribution point

    Hi folks,
    I have an intermittent issue and can't figure out the reason so far.
    I have a primary server and multiple distribution points. The primary does not have a DP configured. When I deploy a new distribution point, I have the following messages:
    Distribution Manager failed to connect to the distribution point. Check your network and firewall settings.
    and
    Distribution Manager failed to find or create the defined share or volume on distribution point.
    DistMgr.log shows the following:
    CWmi::Connect() failed to connect to \\AMB-SCCM-E.domain.name\root\CIMv2. Error = 0x800706BA

    Error occurred. Performing error cleanup prior to returning.
    However, after a while (couple of hours), it looks like everything is distributed on the DP. But this message keeps on coming back during the course of the day and every time a new DP is deployed.
    I checked permissions, IIS, WMI, but I can't find out the cause of this behavior. I have events about WMI (id 5605) but I can connect to the WMI workspace (root\MicrosoftIISv2) with no issues.
    Can anyone shed some light on this please? It would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Safdar.

    To clarify: it's not enough to tick "Windows Authentication" in Add Roles/Features - it actually has to be enabled in IIS configuration. 
    There are also suggestions to run mofcomp.exe smsdpprov.mof

  • After updating to Itunes 8.2.1 Itunes fails to connect to  all remote airp.

    I have 2 airport express, used as remote speakers. Since the last update, both airport express fail to connect with Itunes. I have checked the firmwares, all have the latest firmwareupdate. My firewall allows connections for itunes. I have reinstalled the firmwares, but nothing helps. I still get the error -15000, -15006 and -3256.
    Is there a solution? All worked fine before the newest Itunes Update.

    My Airport Express doesn`t disappear anymore from Airport Utility after changing my WLAN Router from WPA2 to WPA.
    Then I also followed these steps and everything`s fine again:

I've checked my network connection and it's connected, but I can't get any pages to load. I do not have a firewall installed, and I've run out of ideas on how to fix it.

  • C6 Ovi Maps/Navi works, connecting to Nokia Accoun...

    Greetings,
    The location sharing feature seems really cool and I'd like to use it with my new Nokia C6. Ovi Maps and navigation works fine for me, however it will not login my Nokia Account. That whole menu is quite buggy actually. It does not "forget my account" either, but if I click it then restart my Nokia, I can re-add my login details... then it attempts to login, but nothing happens. I left my phone to try and login all night, in the morning it still said "Connecting to Nokia Accounts.." and if I cancel it, i will have to click "forget account" and reboot nokia again to make it reappear. Several attempts didn't work though.
    I've updated to both latest Symbian version and Ovi Maps.
    Is there another Nokia Approved App that would let me share my location? (as often and automatic as possible)
    Thanks in Advance

    I re-installed the phone's firmware and this has fixed the bug!

  • Nokia N78 fails to connect to PC via CA-101 USB ca...

    Hi everybody.....
    Please let me tell the story from the begining..Recently I purchased a China made N78 phone
    with firmware ver. 12.046 / custom ver. 12.046.051.1 .When I tried to connect it to
    PC via CA-101 USB cable & Nokia PC Suite ver. 6.9 (both are contained in the retail box)
    it failed to connect.Although the phone does recognise the connection as a connection
    icon appears on the left upper corner of the phone screen and the phone asks me to set
    the connection profile e.g. PC Suite to use , while the PC tells me that a problem occured
    during installation of a new hardware (the phone) and it cannot be used properly hence no
    connection occures. First I factory resetted the phone , then did hardware format by
    keys: (* + 3 + m.media key + power on ),then updated the Nokia PC Suite programme to
    ver. 7.1 and I updated cable drivers from Nokia website and reinstalled them ,then I
    updated the phone fimware using phone device manager to ver. 21.002 / custom ver. 21.002.051.1
    and lastly reinstalled the Win.XP on my PC BUT THE PROBLEM IS SAME AND NO CONNCTION in every single step done respectively.On the other side the Bluetooth connection with the PC and Nokia PC Suite
    works very fine. I think I checked and fixed every possible issue I could ,and the phone package is brand new and made under the authority of Nokia corp. hence its genuine one and purchased from a registered Nokia distributor in Middle East.So why this problem happens ?! I DONT KNOW , SO PLEASE HELP..HELP...

    Did You install PC suite to your computer before connecting? Which mode are you using to connec PC Suite or data transfer? Data transfer shouldn't require drivers but you can get the cable driver just in case. It should be on the disk that came in the box with your phone. If you have installed PC suite make sure it's running when you plug the phone in

  • Nokia 6102i fails to connect to iSync unless I restart the phone

    My Nokia 6102i frequently fails to connect through bluetooth to iSync. iSync prompts me to restart my phone, and doing so always does the trick. However, I don't want to restart my phone whenever I want to sync it up. Do any of you know what the problem is?
    Incidentally, this problem has cropped up only recently; my phone use to sync without any problems. If I had to target an instigating incident, it would be uninstalling Markspace for Palm, but that might have been coincidental.
    I have the following software running with iSync:
    -Novamedia for Nokia 6102i
    -Palm
    Todd

    Try deleting and reinstalling the phone plug-in on your Mac. Then, restart both Mac and Phone.

  • How to connect my Nokia 5230 to internet using Blu...

    I would like to be able to connect my mobile (Nokia 5230) to internet without using the GPRS connection.
    The only option I can see, is to connect my mobile to my PC (which has an internet connection) via bluetooth or USB and share the pc internet connection with my mobile.
    How can I do that?
    I would like to use OVI store but the only option is "Send to Mobile" It seems that it is not possible to download a file on the PC and then send it to the mobile . If I coudl share my PC internet connection with my mobile I will be in a position where I could use OVI store
    I found this post at,

    What you're asking is not possible. There was a piece of software called GNUBox that might have done the trick but it seems to be more or less abandoned.

    Hi 2dawgzy,
    Thanks for your post.
    We are very sorry for this inconvenience.
    Is your phone updated with the last software version (04.35)? You can check it entering *#0000# on the keypad.  If not, I would suggest you to update your 3710 with Nokia suite.

  • Unable to connect to nokia services

    Whenever i try to connect to Nokia music and cinemagraph etc., its showing "Network Problem we couldn't complete that operation, please try again later" but i was able to login to HERE City lens at once. Please help.

    What connection are you using? If data connection, try using Wi-Fi instead.
    If you are unable to log-in to Nokia Music with your Nokia account, try going to Settings > Email+Accounts to add your Nokia Account. You can also go to Settings > Nokia Account to set it up.
    If above would fail, you can try to scan the Nokia Account QR code found in this link to update the said system utility: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Pool-of-Knowledge/Nokia-Windows-Phone-8-App-Updates/m-p/1640082
    Make sure that all system apps are updated as well as the software of the phone itself, by the way. Hope to hear from you soon.

  • OVI fails to recognize my device

    I've installed ovi on my machine and when it asks me to connect the 5800 nothing happens.it says something like 'nokia ovi could not connect,,,,'
    is there anything i can try?

    Hi pitchtwit ,
    I am not sure whether this will solve your problrm but you could try this once.
    1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
    2 .Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
    3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
    4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.  
    5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
    6. Restart the computer if prompted.
    7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Driver installation should complete and PC/Ovi suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now
    Please THANK me by clicking on the ****WHITE STAR** ( Giving KUDOS) the big GREEN BOX to your LEFT .
    It will help me to serve you better !!!!!
    Thanking You
