Ovi Suite - The basics please!

Okay, so I know my way around computers and software, yet Ovi Suite is baffling me!
Can someone please talk me through the basics of how to :
Upload music to my mobile
Upload photos to my mobile
because it's driving me mad! I can get to the part where it shows some music files, but not all of them. It really isn't easy to use.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Why dont you install NOkia OVI SUite 2.0 ? and check this issue

The basics please

Having just upgraded my old C1-01 to a Lumia 520, I'm massively disappointed at the lack of basic instructions supplied with the phone. For instance:
1. I called the number to register the phone and was asked to press button 1 - but where's the keyboard? There's no obvious keyboard symbol showing. I kept tapping the screen and pressing buttons until the automated system almost timed out. A keyboard eventually popped up but I have absolutely no idea what did it.
2. How do you end a call? Why isn't there simply an END CALL button to press? I'm faced with two choices; either wait for the other person to end it (assuming that does completely close the line) or switch the phone off.
3. That damned camera button: I'm continually pressing it by mistake and can't find any way of switching the camera off. My picture folder is full of pictures of my knees, the floor and the walls.
4. That wretched Bing button. The first time I saw it, I assumed it was to magnify the screen, but it is so easy to press accidentally. I detest Bing and would love to make it bring up Google instead. Is this possible? In the meantime, I'm highly tempted to glue a suitably sized rubber washed over the damned button to deactivate it.
5. Setting up contacts. What a nightmare this was. My old and new phone could see each other via Bluetooth, yet my old camera was telling me that my new camera didn't support the transfer service. I eventually solved it by using the option on my new phone to see the C1-01 as an audio device rather than a phone!
Overall, the few instructions supplied assume that you're already a very experienced smartphone user. It's as if every aspect of it has been deliberately designed to be as user unfriendly as possible and when try to Google for answers, I can see that there are very many people in a similar position, who are not receiving useful answers. Is there an Idiot's Guide To The Nokia Lumia? If not, it's about time there was one.

1. the same icon as with any other smartphone basically it's an icon of a keypad (nine dts with one below it)
2. The END CALL button on the same screen
3. you're holding it wrong.. But seriously you'll just need to give yourself a bit of time to get used to it being there.
4. Looking glass is generally the icon for search.
5. There is several guides and tools for this but since you got it sorted that's hardly relevant now.
You basically went from a 2005 or so Fiat punto to a modern day mid range car.. things will be different and you will find you end up looking for stuff and having to get used to hwo thing work in a different way. I'd suggest you accept this and let us know when you have any question without adding the splash of negativity. It's only normal you'll come across bumps when moving up from a basic phoe to a smartphone regardless of the make/OS.

Ready To Print - Need The Basics Please

Hi, got my site finished recently (www.jamesrobertphotography.com) and got an order for a few prints.
This is the first time i'm printing my work, so i know very little about it.
My questions are:
-what's the largest i can print before quality loss? (Nikon D70, 6.1mp)
-will printing at my local digital store do the job?
-do images need to be in CMYK mode?
-is 300dpi a good number to use?
-will cropped images cause me trouble?
Need your help, and thanks in advance for taking the time...cheers.

HI,
Congratulations on your first orders and on your photography business.
However, you will really need to know what you are doing to be successful, therefore, I strongly encourage you to sit down with several good books on printing and read up on the subject.
Here are some basic ideas that should help you along the way:
For Printing at Home:
Images should be in RGB colour mode;
Proof the images using the profile for your printer before you print;
Image resolution is dependent on printing output from specific printers, e.g.
Optimal resolutions for Epson printers are 360 and 180 respectively. 300 is good but the printer will have to do internal math to output it so there can be some quality loss;
6.1MP images should be able to be enlarged to 12" x 18" without noticeable loss of quality if you use a scaling technique or program;
Cropped images will not cause you difficult unless you intend to enlarge them ; then, it depends on the severity of the crop and the intended output size.
Printing from a Store:
Find out what profile the store is using to print, and use that to proof your images;
Find out what resolution the store requires for the images;
Review the output quality of the store prior to selling your images.
If you are going to operate a photography business, I would strongly recommend that you purchase your own large scale, archival-quality printer. I'm personally biased toward Epson equipment, but others will work. You may wish to buy an Epson 4800 Pro or 7800 Pro. Both offer large capacity ink tanks, banner paper, and unmatched output. This means cost of produciton is cheaper in the long-run, greater profit margins, and quality prints.

Help with the basics please

hello, i am trying to create a window that displays a grid of 100 buttons arranged 10 x 10. I then would like to place a couple of buttons nicely beneath this grid that might exit the program or whatever.
my problem here is that i can't control the size of the grid the two nested for loops create and it just fills the entire window and dosen't even stay in a 10 x 10 formation, instead it randomly arranges them to fit the two buttons in at the bottom!
is there some sort of setSize comand i can use so the grid is set to a certain size, maybe of the EAST of the screen?????
here is my code so far!
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
class trialgrid extends JFrame
public trialgrid()
               JFrame frame = new JFrame("One Player");
               frame.setSize(620, 650); // sets size of window displayed
               Container content = frame.getContentPane();
               JPanel grid = new JPanel();
               content.setLayout(new GridLayout(10, 10)); // contains the grids info
               content.setSize(100, 100); // this is doing nothing!!!
               for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
                    for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++)
                         JButton square = new JButton();
                         square.setBackground(Color.blue); //nested for loops to create 10 x 10 grid of buttons
                         content.add(square);
               content.add(grid, BorderLayout.NORTH); // trying to create some sort of layout
               JPanel form = new JPanel(); // second panel that i want to go beneath grid of buttons
               form.add(new JButton("OK"));
               form.add(new JButton("Exit"));
               content.add(form, BorderLayout.SOUTH); // here i'm trying to put south below "north" grid
               frame.setVisible(true);
               frame.setResizable(false);
               frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     public static void main (String args[])
     trialgrid gl = new trialgrid();
}

1.
The only problem i have left is one of my original
l ones..... i need to be able to control the actual
size (height and width) of the grid that is produced
by the for loops!!
Because i want to set the size of the window to 620
by 650 pixels i wondered if you could control the
size of the panel and then maybe centralize it in the
middle so it would have spaces either side and top
and bottom??
Read More about:- Layout managers. setPreferredSize(), getPreferredSize() etc
Subclass a JPanel so that it returns your preferred Dimensions
2.
The thing about the buttons is i am later going to
use something like mouseClicked(MouseEvent);
getX(),
getY() to locate the mouse's location to
manipulate actions. So im not sure yet if i need to
be able to name each button or get rid of the buttons
completely!!If you want the effect of buttons and don't want to go to all the extra trouble of interpreting which one was clicked from the mouse coordinates, which is going to be a real pain if you resize anything.. you could try something along these lines...
       private void fillPanelWithLotsOfButtons( JPanel inPanel )
                      JButton currentButton;
                      String s = "";
                      int buttonNumber = 0;
                       GridLayout grid = new GridLayout( 10, 10, 5, 5 ); // 5Pixel spaces Horizontal and vertical
                      inPanel.setLayout( grid );
                     for( int i = 0 ; i < 10 ; i ++ )
                                  for( int j = 0; j < 10 ; j ++ )
                                              buttonNumber = ( i * 10 ) + j;
                                              s = Integer.toString( buttonNumber).trim();
                                              currentButton = new JButton(); // you might want to add a Subclass of Button that is set to your wanted size....
                                             // Or you could do currentButton = new JButton( s );
                                             currentButton.setActionCommand( s ); // will be "0", "1", "2", ......................................
                                             currentButton.addActionListener( this ); // assumes that this classs implements ActionListener
                                             inPanel.add( currentButton );
        // Then Further on in your code
       // you can tell which button was pressed fairly easily
      public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent event )
                        String myAction = event.getActionCommand();
                        int buttonNumber = Integer.parseInt( myAction );
                        System.out.println( "Button Number " + buttonNumber );
       }or something along those sort of lines
To Flounder, that idea does interest me a lot, i have
been thinking i need more panels, maybe East, North
and West and fill these with ships, a title and
instructions respectively. **To make sense of this i
am creating a battleships game** So i need to make
another 5 panels really so i'm not sure if i could
add all these to a 6th panel?
After reading this, I'd suggest using JToggleButton
you could make a custom subclass with appropriate Images, for selected and not selected
any code or suggestions greatly appreicated!! Thank
you

HELP! pc suite/ovi suite won't read sms on my 5800...

Hi all! I have a VERY BIG problem. I own a 5800, I have about 3000 sms on the memory card. I want to move them on my PC, so i can delete from my nokia. PROBLEM IS: neither pcsuite nor ovi suite (even 2.0) can access my sms. both software fail. here's what happens.
pc suite: i run nokia communication centre, then it starts checking messages on my cell. after few seconds, it says there are about 2500 messages, at this point i see the bargoing from 0 to 70% real fast, then when it reaches 100% it says there are only about 50 messages on my phone (basically, it only lists the MMS, totally ignores sms)
ovi suite: the first time i used it, i synced messages with my cell, and it only synced about 2200-2300 of them out of 3000. since then, every time i try to sync messages with it, it says that for some reason it cant' read the data from my phone OR that the usb connection doesn't work (i tried with bluetooth, also, and i get the same error, so its not the connection).
in other words... i can read the sms fine on my 5800, it says there are over 3000, but when i try to access them with a pc software, it doesn't work for some reason.
HERE'S WHAT I THINK MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED. some time ago, using pc suite, i did a restore of a backup. during the restore, i got an error while it was restoring the sms. at that time, i didnt pay too much attention, since i noticed all the sms on my phone were ok, none was missing. but what I THINK happened is that since then the sms structure on my 5800 is screwed... and for some reason, my phone can read them fine, but pc softwares dont.
now my question is: WHAT TO DO? i dont want to lose all my sms... i NEED to copy them on my pc... then i can even format/reset my memory card, but i need to copy them first. any help? anything i could try? please help... thank you!

first of all, thank you for your reply!
no, very few of those 3000 sms are from operator/config messages and such... maybe 10 or 20...
i tried nokia pc photos some weeks ago... and it worked, infact i can still see the sms/photos saved on my pc from that day. if i try it now, tho, i get the same errors i get with pcsuite/ovi suite... sync fails and basically does nothing, doesnt update any new sms (last one appears to be of the end of april, which is the last time i had used nokia photo).
this seems to confirm my fear... for some reason, probably after that messed up restore i did, something in the sms structure on the memory card got messed, and now no software can read them properly, even the cell backup program. but for some reason, my nokia can read them fine, if i simply access the messages.
question now is... does nokia have a tool to fix cases like this? i find it ironic that my cell can see all the sms but none of the nokia programs can actually access them. thank you very much!

Lol at messaging, links, browser and ovi suite!

exaple
http://store.ovi.com/content/131796?clickSource=homepage

http://store.ovi.com/content/131796
then add... /download
with no spaces

Ovi Suite does not recognise special MP3 files

My Ovi Suite does not import some of my MP3 files, even though they have proper ID3 tags (there are even albums where some files are recognised and others not, although I can see no difference in the "quality" of the tags). If I directly choose one of those to add, the program always states "0 files added".
I would like to get ALL of my MP3s (approx 2GB) into Ovi suite, not just 80%. Can anyone give me a hint why Ovi suite dislikes some of my files?
Thanks!
Fabian

it then crash at startup.
I uninstant and reinstall OVI,
and it crash again before displaying anything usefull (onply the splash screen).

Help me !! Ovi Suite 2.2.0.241 can neither be inst...

The upgrad of the OVI suite 2.1 to version 0.241 caused a Vista installation and
a win7 installation to run in problems to recognize a nokia 5800.
After the update: neither the ovi suite 0.241 of the vista OS nor the win7 OS
could recognize the nokia 5800 any more.(driver could not be installed)
I de-installed the ovi suite on both systems and tried to re-install again.
I managed this on the win7 system ( to do this i had to clear all nokia folders and also clean
all registry entrys of the ovi installation).
Finally the re-installation of the ovi suite 0.241 on win7 OS was done.without problems
The great problem is the vista system.
i also cleaned the whole system with entries of the ovi-suite, nokia installation,folders
registry and so on.(i used special software to to this professionally).
Now the following problem resists:
If i want wo install the new ovi-suite i get a screen either to repair or to de-install the
ovi-suite.
Both possibilities lead to an error code 1610/1612.
So i can not install and i can not repair nor can i deinstall the ovi-suite.
I feel sure, that i have cleaned all folders and the registry from the installation of the
ovi-suite 2.1
Please give me some hints what i can try more to manage the re-installation.
My ideas run out.

thatsa,
If you can't uninstall or upgrade your installation you can use Windows Installer CleanUp Utility to remove Ovi Suite so that it's possible to reinstall it. http://www.filestube.com/2889cc34930c97e403ea/go.html . Microsoft used to offer this utility online, but have removed it. The file behind filestube link has Microsoft's digital signature so it should be safe to use.

Unable to update c5-03 software in ovi suite 3.2.1

Hi,
I have just bought a c5-03 and have installed the 11.0.024 version. The ovi software alerts me that I have an update version 20.0.024. I follow all steps indicated by the suite (e.g. connect the mobile with usb, select ovi suite, the update is downloaded to my computer, etc.), but after I select the button install the ovi suite desconnects the phone and shows the message "you are not connected to the computer", install fails, and then the the ovi suite connects the phone again.
Help, please.

Thanks for you help. Further info: win7 and located in Portugal
The installation is terminated imediatelly and shows the message "you have a usb connection active, you may continue with the instalation", then I click again the button "next" and repeats the installation procedure again - the connection to the phone is lost and so on.

Nokia N85 unable to connect to Ovi Suite

I am unable to connect my nokia n85 through usb for Ovi suite and also the Nokia Download program. Whenever i connect the cable, it tells me
"your device is in file transfer connection mode and cannot be used with NOkia Ovi Suite. Quit file tranfer mode from the device if you want to use the device with Nokia Ovi Suite"
The problem is i have no idea how to do this, and whenever i connect my usb cable my phone asks me which type of transfer method and i always select pc suite, so it shouldnt give me this error.

plese help me for fixing this issue: Mine is nokia n85 smart phone. After installing ovi suite in my PC with windows 7, and updating all the software from nokia support, I am unable to connect my mobile to ovi suite through USB. It says," device does not support (though in phone it shows connected in PC suite mode). Please suggest me with 2 alternative methods so I can use one in failure default. Thank you
