Ovi suite should sync ovi maps

Hi,
just a gripe I hope Nokia will read. It would be nice if the ovi suite could 'sync' maps. What I mean is you can browse either the available maps or the maps on your phone. It can't show you the two together. What it *should* do, if Nokia actually used their own products, is show the available maps with some mark '*' to indicate which are already on your phone. When copying maps it should prompt you that a certain map is already on the phone and offer the opportunity to overwrite or skip.
You know, basic 1990's file sync stuff.
Maybe I'll send Nokia support an email.

Hi, look I really think you need to chill about this, you only need to update maps every couple of years, I work in the motor trade and most expensive factory fit sat nav systems are cd/dvd based and are generally not updated much more often than 18 months, the whole reason for loading maps onto your phone is to save data charges and speed everything up. If you have no maps on your phone navigation will still work if internet is connected as the phone will download maps 'on the fly' as it needs them, but it just slows things down and if you're out of your region will cost plenty in roaming charges (so download your foriegn destination on pc before you leave). Just enjoy your phone and free navigation

So what can I do to sovle this problem?
Thanks a lot and any suggestions.

Similar problem. When i press "Maps" button, application writes: "Maps is running on your device" (even after phone and PC restarts), and when i press "Try again" link, it wrotes: "Something's gone wrong - reinstall Ovi"
The problem started on Ovi suite 3.1.1.80 and continues on 3.1.1.85 - reinstalling Ovi doesn't help.
I use N8 with 014.002 system.
Appreciate your help.

Ovi Map Suite Has Update Available For Phone

Good Eve,
I have an New Nokia C-6 phone, when synced with ovi suite it stated that there is an new maps update available. The update is 315mb but my phone only carrie +- 250mb internal memory. I cannot save the maps update on the mem card it want to be saved on the internal mem.
How can one update it if memory is not enough in the first place......
Did nokia not take this in notice?
Lead, Follow or get out of the Way!

Puzzled a bit here, are your current maps on phone memory or memory card? Whilst in OVI Maps > Spanner icon > Map > Memory to be used - can select here but only changes after re-starting application.

Sync error for Ovi Maps

I tried downloading new maps for my 5800XpressMusic via Ovi Suite but it reported 'Internal error. Please try again later' - despite my functioning maps on the phone Ovi Suite cannot detect any maps, let alone adding new ones in.
I have tried reinstalling both my Device software v51.0.006 and the latest Ovi Maps app but still in vain.
Any insight?
Thanks

It seems a server issue. Please keep trying

Ovi maps-ovi suite internal error e66

I have done a hard reset on a nokia e66 with firmware 410...
When I first connected to ovi suite the maps module showed me internal error. But it wasn't any server error or try again etc...
The steps are the following:
1) Format memory card
2) Download ovi maps from nokia website.
3) Open the maps in the phone and accept all the messages
4) Connect to the ovi suite and open maps.
5) And then magically it will tell you that you need an update on the maps.
6) Now I am in this step which updating but I think it has stuck.
Shame on you nokia for all these problems for a business telephone such as e66. That's why apple is always a level ahead in its interface and is winning just from that. Simplicity just simplicity.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As it was expected I did my job with nokia map loader...http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-map-loader/download
And after that ovi suite opened without questions the maps.
If it is integrated in ovi suite as I read here: /t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Nokia-Map-Loader-support-dropped/td-p/700212
it doesn't work right. If it is a new map loader in ovi then nokia you have to go BACK.

N97 Mini data sync - Ovi maps

Having had to reset my N97 mini I no longer have the map sync profile for data connection. Does anyone know of a download link or could list the settings?
Thanks in anticipation

So did I. Have tried reinstall but still can't get past sign in. Maps doesn't seem to pick up either my account details or the server path but no error or failed log in is reported.
FYI I posted the same thread on the navigation forum

OVI Suite not connecting to map server

After installing the latest NOKIA software updater, the OVI Suite is not connecting to the map server. It stays: "Wait while retreiving the available maps..." for ever. I unistalled the updater, but the problem is still there. Any ideas to solve this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Same problem with my Nokia X6 - "The connection to the Ovi Maps timed out". Now I have no maps
Nokia, give us the old version of Ovi Suite - this one is a piece of **bleep**. I tested on 3 different computers and the problem appeared on each of them regardless that 1 of the computers was with Ovi Suite and PC Suite already installed, the other had only Ovi Suite installed and the third had nothing of the above installed.

Ovi Suite freezing while downloading maps

Hi folks,
I have a Nokia 5230 with the latest maps application. Whenever I try to download maps to the phone the download starts for just a few seconds and Ovi Suite freezes. I have restarted both my computer and phone but still run into same problem. I am connected in PC Suite mode via USB.
Thanks a lot for your help.

@tonderai
Welcome to the forum!
Presumably you have latest Ovi Maps v3.06 (688) available from here installed?http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/ ovi_maps_installer_3.06_11wk23_b05_s60_5...
Is this the first time that you have download maps to your 5230?
You do have a microSD memory card in place and you have run Ovi Maps application upon 5230 with it in place?

OVI Suite not connecting to map server - NOT SOLVE...

Because this /t5/Nokia-Ovi-Suite/OVI-Suite-not-connecting-to-map-server/td-p/708275 discussion has been marked as solved and it's not. I wonder when we'll have any feedback from Nokia Support? It must be the new Nokia Ovi Suite causing the problem because we all have the same problems. I have tried on three different computers with good stable internet connections and get the "connection timed out" error on all of them. Using Nokia 5230 and have tried both on XP and Vista.

@mokrypes
This seems to be working now. I tried today to download US maps and it completed and installed without any issues. Guess there was some problem with the map server.

PC Suite vs.Ovi Suite for Syncing N900

I am coming from Blackberry with no Nokia experience whatsoever. I am running Windows 7 and Outlook 2007. I am used to a 2 way – or 1 way sync for my Blackberry – because really both are needed. I have read that PC Suite has more features than Ovi Suite for sync. That they “dumbed down” Ovi Suite and it only has 2 way capability.
The N900 is coming… I ordered it tonight. What is really the best software to sync my Outlook 2007 contacts (and possibly calendar) although I have read Outlook Calendar may not be possible..??..
Thanks – I would hate to install what might not be the best software to sync this phone… I am hoping to avoid any rough patches if at all possible.

I agree that it is annoying that the full support is not there yet but for me that is far more preferable than having had to wait until that end of it was sewn up entirely for the phone to be released.
There's enough there between the phone andPC Suite to cover more than jusrt the bare essentials and it gives us something to look fotward to
True.  And this phone is so capable computer software to do "things" isn't as relevant. I haven't even had to do a battery pull or restart it. It is an amazing device for sure.
Also, I did test "copying and pasting" the converted music files from the Blackberry media card to the internal memoy of the N900 and it worked flawlessly! Even the album art work made it.  I still may check out Double Twist, but at least this way if "free."

[SOLVED]
hi,
Yesss, i have found the problem.
The problem was in Latvian localization. There was something that didn't let to start the programm.
What i did:
I changed phone language to English, the phone restarted;
than opened navigation and it started. Accepted the agreement, and everething went OK.
Then i changed back to Latvian language. The phone restarted. and for some time was very slow. I opened the navigation, and navigation started. Went in some menu. Then phone somehow restarted(some bug?) for 2 times, in time when i was in navigation soft.
But then it went OK, and everething worked as well.
Also there are some words in navigation soft that are not translated, and stays in Lithuanian language, but i hope soon they will be fixed
I hope this post will help to some people, and they will save some time, while searching for solution

Nokia Ovi Suite - Messages Sync doubt

Hi all,
I have this doubt concerning the messages sync:
Let's imagine, I make a sync between my nokia, so all the messages are copied and appear in the Ovi Suite. Some other day I decide do delete some messages on the cell phone. When I sync it again with the Ovi Suite, will it delete those same messages or will they remain?
I didn't find an option to chose whether I could chose the kind of synchronization, since I would like to delete some SMS from the cellphone but keep them intact in my computer.
Thanks!

Hey,
AFAIK Nokia Ovi Suite Message sync is one-way sync, ie., u can sync ur handset's messages from ur device to Nokia Ovi Suite and the other way is not possible. Xprts confirm
If u delete few messages from ur device after synching those with Nokia Ovi Suite, then if sync is successful means, ur messages will b there on both handset and on ur device. Once if u delete ur messages from device and then if u sync ur handset with nokia ovi suite for message sync, ur deleted messages on the phone will not get deleted from nokia ovi suite and becuase of ur sync even the deleted messages will get restored from nokia ovi suite to ur device, as i said earlier it is only one way sync.
Still if u want the deleted messages to b restored on ur device, what all can b done is u can drag ur messages from Nokia Ovi suite's message pane to ur device, then the deletd mssgs can b stored on ur device too.
If u delete ur messgae on message pane section of Nokia ovi suite, then only ur messages will get deleted from nokia ovi suite.
Hope its clear, if u hav any doubt, get it clarified thru our forum, but it wud b gud, if u post ur nokia ovi suite related issues on Nokia ovi suite discussions board, this one is meant for Ovi and Mobile Media > ovi.com, ovi.store, ovi share and ovi sync, which all r related to Nokia Ovi's online ie nokia account ovi.com
If u hav any query related to Nokia Ovi suite, please do post them in Nokia discussion board > Software > Nokia Ovi Suite, i m stressing this because, ur query will get replied soon if u post ur issue related to Nokia ovi suite in its respective forum, chances r there, users will think issues u post related to ovi suite in ovi.com section will related to ovi.com
