OVI Suite "Creating the Contact Failed"

okedoke
Ovi onT'InterWebThingy was being stupid
said could not see device
device was not synched since Dec
could not load settings
sorry could not retrieve device information
etc, etc
SO
removed device - well I tried, kept failing
said could not remove - persisted, round and round again and again
removed and setup new device BUT - at one point said I had three devices
loads of txts to phone to configure
FINALLY removed all three! and added only one!
THEN uninstalled Ovi suite on PC and re-installed
Then it all worked !

OVI Suite messes up contact when syncing my N8. Wh...

Tried this to confirm these problems:
1) Deleted all contacts in OVI Suite and on the phone.
2) Restored the contacts from OVI sync to be sure they are OK
3) Checked that standard values are set for phone, sms and e-mail
4) Synced with OVI suite, no contacts updated on phone, all updated in OVI Sync
5) Did another sync with OVI Suite straight at once.
Now these annoying problems has occured on the phone (and in OVI suite):
a) Standard settings have been lost for all other than phone. This is annoying becuase the phone will now ask when sending SMS if you want to use the phone number or the e-mail address :-(
b) Most of the contact have a "Note" added with the text "<< unnamed >>". This is annoying because this not is displayed next to the contacts picture instead of the name or address :-(
So WHY is OVI Suite removing the standard settings for messages?
And WHY is OCI Suite adding the "<< unnamed >>" note for most (but not all) contacts?
(tried to find some logic, but can't find any thing common about the contacts changed)
Lars-Erik Østerud - http://www.osterud.name/nokia.html

For me even the regular sync gives lot of problems. I can't find the simplest setting of "One way Sync, i.e. only from Mobile to Ovi Suite". And that's what has been creating a problem for me.
Whenever I sync my contacts with Ovi using Ovi Suite many of my updates (which I'd made on the phone since last Sync) are lost.
This is quite irritating!
@Nokia: Please suggest any solution for this issue.

OVI Suite creating multiple tasks

I have "upgraded" the PC Suite software on my Windows 7 laptop to Ovi Suite 2.0.1.35 and now every time my phone syncs, any recurring tasks are created for the next 6 months and the recurrences are screwed up so that I have to reset everything manually. Initially I had 2000 tasks created as it created new entries for the next 20 years. I could then not remove them from the phone as there was no available memory. I have now got this down to about 56 tasks when there are only 28 in my Outlook (2007) file, but this can change between syncs. It has also screwed up a couple of Contacts email addresses, but nowhere near as badly as my tasks.
Is this a known issue with the software? Frustrating as hell. There were never these kinds of problems with the "old" software!
And also, is there a way to syncronise the Calendar and not the tasks? That would fix my problem but they are under the same option.

I have the same problem. I use E51 and the same version of Ovi Suite. It created thousends of task.

OVI Suite crashed during contacts syncing

When it is syncing contacts, it crashed without any error messages.
What is going on??
I'm using Windows 7 64-bit
OVI Suite Version: 3.0.0.282
Phone Model: 5800XM
It also failed in syncing photos, it said [Photo not synced]
There was a problem with syncing your Photos. Try restarting your device and computer. If the problem persists, check if there is a new version of Nokia OVI Suite available. If not, try updating your device software.
I have done all of the above and still cant sync.

I too am having a crash when contacts are syncing using Ovi Suite 3.0.0.284 (latest) connecting to an E55.
Edit: After retrying repeatedly, contacts have synced without crashing (without changing the software or the data to be synced).

In ovi software where the contacts file saved

Recently i updated my xp to windows 7 un expectedly i forget to take a back up as i sync msgs to ovi and deleting from my mobile
now the problem is i have the old nokia ovi suit in xp but it is not working
but all the installed files are still in old windows files
in those installed files i want contacts and msgs file
so that i can copy the contacts and msgs file in old ovi suit and paste in new ovi suit
thanks for the help

On XP the messages are in (note that folders are Hidden)
Documents and Settings - <profile name> - Local Settings - Application data - Nokia - Nokia Suite - Messages - Database
And Contacts are in
Documents and Settings - <profile name> - Local Settings - Application data - Nokia - Nokia Data Store
There are also other metadata than contacts on the same database (e.g.. playlists)
On Win 7 the places are
Users - <profilename> - AppData - Local - Nokia - Nokia Data Store
Users - <profilename> - AppData - Local - Nokia - Nokia Suite - Messages- Database.
You can replace the files from one OS to another, but if you have already transferred messages and contacts on you Win7 (or done any changes to contacts, playlists etc) then after file replace you have to do it again.

Ovi Suite SMS to Contacts and confusion about numb...

Hi,
I'm really confused here...
I have a E72 which I sync with a exchange server (Contacts, calendar and mail).
The sync part seems to work fine.
However, I would also like to sync Notes and have the ability to SMS from my computer. That's where I thought Ovi Suite came into the picture but I'm having some problems:
When sending SMS from Ovi Suite: I enter name of the contact the name appears with a preview of the phone number in the format "070-783XXXX", when I try to send it says invalid format so I need to enter the number manually in the format "070783XXXX" to be able to send the SMS
When I update a contact in Outlook, the contact is updated in phone, but not in Ovi Suite
When I use outlook number formats (specifying country, area code etc) the number appears as "+46 (070) 783XXXX", but then number recognition doesn't seem to work on incoming calls.
What I want to accomplish and wonder if it is at all possible is:
Manage my contacts, calendar and mail in Outlook. Sync through MfE
Reach my contacts from Ovi Suite to be able to send SMS to them
Use Ovi Suite to manage Map files, Music, and other phone files.
Use Ovi Suite to Sync Notes from Outlook.
I'm I on the right track here? Any suggestions for a better way of managing contacts and having the functionality I've described?
Solved!

Ovi suite and the N97

Has anyone else encountered problems with Ovi Suite? I installed it on my PC from the disc in the box with my N97 all seemed fine first time I used it to back up then on the second occassion it would not load. So I deleted it from PC and installed it on my laptop. First backup was fine, then today tried to open Ovi Suite to backup phone and check for software updates and it fails to load. Also there is a new version of Nokia Software updater that it tried to download and also failed on installaion.
Just wondered if anyone else was having problems?

i am not sure which version came with your phone but these links will take you either to ovi suite beta 2 update, or nokica pc suite. either one is good i tend to use nokia pc suite more as ovi suite still has some growing pains to go through. you can reinstall ovi or install pc suite and remove the ovi suite if you have any components left on your computers first.

Why isn't ovi suite syncing the msgs on my memory ...

I have an E5 and everytime i try to sync my phone with my laptop the messages on my memory card dont show. I dont have a problem with the music, pictures and videos that are on my memory card, they sync just fine but none of the messages show. I have many important messages that i need to keep. Can anyone help me please?

Ovi suite only tends to sync properly with contacts in phone memory C, try transferring messages to C and see if it ayncs ok ? Messaging>Options>Settings>Other>Memory in use, change to C Phone memory, and you should be offered the option to move messages. Hope that helps.

Error while creating the Contact Person in the BP Master Data

Dear Experts,
                I encountered the following error while updating the contact person name either while creating new or editing existing customer.
Error - [Contact Persons - Contact Persons name][Line 1],'This entry already exists in the following tables 'Contact Persons' (OCPR) (ODBC - 2035)' [Message 131-183].

Dear Experts,
                  I am not doing a DTW for the same, i am updating the BP Master manually. It has been a recent occurence since 3 days when the customer is trying to update the contact person the following error throws. I tried updating for the existing customers with no contact person, there in also it throwed the same error.
               To bring to your notice i had a test database for the same customer where in i encounter no issues with regard to the contact person update.

Captive runtime -target bundle does not create the package fails after creating a .tmp folder

Hi Adobe Team, Experts,
I cannot create a captive runtime package successfully on windows.
This is the command I am using to create a captive runtime package for windows
adt -package -keystore CodeSigning.pfx -storetype pkcs12 -storepass password -target bundle TestPackage Test-app.xml Test.swf
The issue is the above command creates a .tmp directory "adt5072057577475387637.tmp" but does not create a directory by name "TestPackage" .
Another observation is the above command works in-consistently it seems to create the directory sometimes but fails for the most.
Funny enough !! It worked when I was creating a POC but now when I am trying to release it stops working on me.
It is the same machine I did POC on.
The application descriptor has
<supportedProfiles>desktop extendedDesktop</supportedProfiles>
I have also tried
adt -package -keystore CodeSigning.pfx -storetype pkcs12 -storepass password -target bundle TestPackage.exe Test-app.xml Test.swf
as mentioned here - http://www.riaspace.com/2011/08/bundling-air-3-runtime-in-air-desktop-applications/
Flex SDK version - 4.6.0
AIR SDK version - 3.1
JDK version - jdk1.6.0_18
Please advise as to how to fix this issue.
Thanks,

Hi vshare,
did you ever find a solution to this? I'm running into the same problem with no apparent solution.

Ovi Suite and Windows Contacts sync problem.

The sync process randomly misses phone numbers (Phone -> Windows).
I tried removing all the contacts into the Windows library and restarting the sync, but the same problem happen.
Any idea?

Dear Marina,
You said "So this issue is more like a Window Contacts application limitation".
I disagree; This is the limitation of the imagination and experience your developers have.
How stupid should someone be, not be able to figure a simple logic that if a damn field is not available, use any !^%@$# Windows Contacts field which is available?
When your software cannot do a one to one matching of the fields, Nokia Suite shouldn't even call it Sync with contacts application, and place Windows Contacts as an option!
Windows Contacts syncing has always been a way for people to share their contacts among devices! What you have done is proven how dumb your software developers can be!
A simple, very simple solution is to fill in any field which is available to at least maintain the integrity of the data!
A little more intelligent solution, which might be too much for Nokia's developers, is to try and fill in Work or Home fields and then force fill in the fields it couldn't find. This way a contact with only a "Telephone" number, will at least have a number saved!
Did that sound harsh? It is really irritating when you see how simple logic gets ignored, rendering an application that has had its roots around for decades, useless.
