Ovi sync incompatible with N96

So, I've just spent the past hour or two trying to make head or tail of this.
I was finally able to create a new Ovi account today so I could start from scratch.
Step 1: Create Ovi account, confirm mobile number and have sync settings sent to you by SMS
Step 2: Sync calendar, contacts and notes with the setting "to server only". Your calendar entries, contacts and notes will be sent to the server.
Step 3: Log in from the web. Your contacts and notes are there but not the calendar events.
Step 4: Delete a note. Reset the sync profile on your N96 to "both ways" so that the removal of the note is synced to your phone.
Step 5: Re-do a sync. Instead of removing the note from the phone it is reinstated online...
Conclusion: Either Ovi sync and the N96 are not compatible, or incorrect settings are being delivered by SMS.

Do you need different user names for each account
Not necessarily if your username is available in both Nokia account & Share on Ovi you can obviously create two identical username/password pairs. But you need to register separately to both of them.
I actually red from another forum (I think it was Symbian freak or guru)that Nokia has plans to merge the user databases. Let's hope for the best..

Ovi sync problems with n86

I bought a n86 about 3 weeks ago and at first it synchronized perfectly with ovi suite. At some point yesterday I had to do a hard-reboot (return to factory settings) due to some memory issues... from that point I am unable to synchronize my calendar, contacts and notes. On the other hand if i use nokia music or nokia application installer to move music or apps to the phone the processes goes smoothly. I would greatly appreciate any help...

Thank you for your answer but it didn't work... The warning I got fromPcSync is that:
PC Sync information.
The connection to the Nokia device has been lost.
Possible Solution
Check the connection between the Nokia device and PC Sync, then restart synchronisation.
After attempting synchronization I tried to move a pdf file in the phone memory and the operation was succesfull...
Is there a chance that during the hard-reboot something was deleted from my phone that was neccesary?

How to Sync N9 with Ovi Suite!

N9 and ovi suite can Sync!
I have Just Found This Website showing how to sync N9 with Ovi Suite!. I have just tried it and it works great, calendar, contacts etc.
Here's the link, please follow the instructions correctly:
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/11/01/nokia-suite-updated-to-v3-2-98-0-ovi-suite-sync-with-n9/

I have found the root cause for the crash of Nokia Suite 3.2.100 while synchronizing N9 calendar with Outlook
Basically Outlook synchronization with N9 is working for contacts, gallery, messages, notes.
I had the situation that calendar synchronization ended in crash of the Nokia Suite. The root cause was that after first synchronization some time ago a new calendar PC-SYNC was created on the N9. Due to whatever reason this calendar caused a conflict during the synchronization and the Nokia Suite crashed.
I have deleted this calendar on the N9 and tried to synchronize the Original N9 calendar again..... and it worked.... Now again there is a new PC-SYNC available on the N9 but it doesn't cause problems anymore... Synced N9 calendar with Outlook several times and the crash didn't reoccur....
Looks like the issue is solved now :-)

Moderator, please take notice!
They lack of functionality between Thunderbird contacts and calendar and Ovi Suite is a problem many of us have been monitoring for over 2 years. It looks like still nothing has been done about it. I, for one, cannot believe that so many users have been ignored for so long. To date I still refuse to use Ovi Suite until such time as I can see evidence that will sync contacts and calendar to and from Thunderbird. In addition I see no logical reason why the Ovi Suite developers took a huge step backwards and removed another piece of PC Suite that was already working well, for several years. I am speaking of file sync. Not media files, but others, such as Office type files. The phone can open and read documents, spreadsheets, PDF's and the like. So why can we no longer sync those files? I have been doing this for 6 years, but there are others who have used it for longer than myself. It is a crucially important feature for those of us who need to carry info with us. Since PC Suite can still do the sync, I cannot, in good conscience install Ovi SUite, which I still feel is not yet ready for primetime.
Nokia developers, stop playing games. Some of us have work to do.

Sync problem with OVI / Outlook of the notes with ...

Hello,
I'm desperate and close to open the gaz :-). I used to sync my Outlook notes with all my former phones with PC-suite. Since I have a new N8, I'm forced to use OVI instead of PC-Suite as it doesn' support this model phone. Everything seems to be possible in the set up but the sync doesn't work and always return an error code : 83860026. It even ask to reinstall Outlook which took sometime but never changed anything. As it might be due to other unknown variables, I tried the same Outlook database with other PC with XP or W7, office 2003, 2007 and even 2010 and the sync always fail with the same miserable error code. I'm fairly suprised to see this problem still there since I gave up, years ago, to use OVI because of this. My N97 and 6303 do the same. Can someone bring some good help to resolve this annoying trouble please?
Thanks in advance, Fabrice

Dear Satari,
thanks a lot for the advice but in the meantime I found another post stating that version 7.1.40.6 PC-Suite works great with the N8. I kept it in my archives and I can state that it WORKED GREAT in less than 5mn!
So far your suggestions might resolve the OVI sync problem but I have no more courage to follow it. I was yet using the latest version of OVI and W7 and Office2010.
However, if it would work, I would recommand the OVI software team to find out why one of their software work very fine while the other seem to cause trouble to the entire world. I could not find a single complain about PC-Suite while the support discussion ifs full of OVI reported troubles for the last 2,5 years. What a shame!
Furthermore, it is unacceptable that NOKIA force their client to use OVI with any phone while they know this software is so unstable. I would add that the "gift" is even worst when it comes to the most expensive product of the range. As the general manager of a software company, I have learnt that it is never good to insist with a product when the development team is unable to cope with bugs and troubles. Whatever the cause could be, it is better to restart from scratch and get rid of EVERYTHING and EVERYBODY involved in the mess! Please Mr Nokia new president, act positively and do your homeworks in the interest of your clients and sharholders. Additionnally, if I had not spoken English I would still be on the road side! Thanks in advance to care of us MORE.

Does Nokia N9 work with Ovi Sync?

I had an old Nokia N8 and I sync all contacts and calander entries with Ovi sync (http://contactsui.ovi.com/). Does Nokia N9 work with Ovi Sync? I cannot find where it is in N9. Thanks for help!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just tried it by doing in that way:
- Go to "Accounts"
- Choose your Nokia account.
- Enable "Schedule" and configure it according your personal need (Peak time intervall, Peak time, Peak days, Off-peak time intervall)
- For synching with Ovi Sync click on the Sync button in case you want to sync it manually.
I just tried it and can see an actual timestamp in Ovi Sync for my N9:
(Unfortunately in German language )
Nokia N9: +
Synchronisationsstatus: Aktiv
Ihre letzte Synch.: 11/24/2011 23:59
Hope this helps!

Mail for Exchange incompatible with Exchange 2010

MfE is incompatible with Exchange 2010.
There seems to be a difference in the EAS protocol used.
This causes synchonisation to fail when syncing the calendar.
If anyone has a workaround please let me know and Nokia please fix this issue?
Solved!

Hi there,
just installed Mail4Exchange (3.00.050) from the ovi store on my Nokia e71.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to sync anymore with my google apps account. Anybody else encountering this problem? I get a message every other second that there seems to be a sync problem and that i should contact my admin if this stays on.
It worked perfectly with the older version though.
Thanks for any advice.

Nokia N8 & ovi-sync

Hi.
I have set ovi-sync to synchronize once at day at 09:00 but why it keep synchronizing more often? Even if last synchronization status was succeed.

I have the same problem. It worked twice with Anna and now it is not anymore. Why? Even the recommended restore sync does not provide any help.
Nokia Support people: This problem has been there for such a long time now (with the promise that it would be solved in Anna). Why is it not solved? This is one of the key functions for many users having an up to date calender is key for business. Why are you keeping all of us in the dark? I don't understand. You want us to go to Apple or Andriod as well? Waiting for the W7 phone just takes too long for such a basic issue. Especially because it worked so well on all previous systems, N93, N96, N97. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT NOW

IPhone Sync Problems with VISTA After iTunes Upgrade to 7.4

Upon upgrading to iTunes 7.4 I was unable to sync my Outlook calendar or contacts to the iPhone. Called Apple Support that they seemed to know nothing about this problem general problem despite all of the discussions on this and many other tech. boards.
After being told remove and reinstall iTunes and Outlook, set-up a new user account, etc... (none of which worked) I finally concluded that perhaps the .pst file being used by outlook was simply incompatible with iTunes for some reason (e.g. unsupported recurring calendar items).
SOLUTION: Create a new outlook .pst data file. Once created, open up that new file along with the defective .pst file. Then, simply change the view of calendars and contacts in your old calendar such that you can see all of the items in a list. Highlight the items you want to keep and simply click-and-drag them to the nes .pst file. This solves all of the sync. problems I had post-7.4 upgrade. It takes less than 3 minutes to complete this painless fix.
This was so annoying for me that I'd be happy to help someone complete this simple task if they need help. < Edited by Host, for your protection, no personal information please. >

Then it would appear to be an issue with your router. What router? Model? Is the firmware up to date?

10.5.0.142 update incompatible with windows 7

I unfortunately updated my desktop (windows 7 32 bit) and laptop (windows 7 64 bit) to itunes 10.5.0.142. Update seems incompatible with windows 7. It has slowed both computers to a crawl, even when itunes not running. Itunes functions do not work or process at a dead crawl. Cannot access the store. Cannot sync iphone. Tried reinstalling previous itunes version, but previous version can't access itunes library, giving error message: "cannot access itunes library that was created by newer version of itunes." Have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes multiple times. Have turned off all other processes to look for incompatibility, but issues remain. I am NOT PLEASED!.

I had the same problem and i downloaded microsoft fixit software and it did fix the issue. Here is the link for that guyshttp://support.microsoft.com/fixit/ When your on this page, dont change the first option n 2nd option be Connect to the internet or networks and for 3rd option choose Automatically diagnose and fix common security setting on Windows. and run the software and enjoy itunes store.........

Can't sync Palm with Mac through iSync, only syncs with Palm Desktop

I have an older Palm Tungsten T3 that I use basically only to run a medical application that I need at work (ePocrates, which has its own conduit and auto-updates itself with hotsyncs). I haven't tried to sync it to my Mac for a long time. I use iCal for my calendaring needs, sync it with my iPod, and ignore the old stuff that's on the Palm, which I hardly ever even sync.
Today I had to reinstall the Epocrates software, and decided while I was at it I'd try to get the Palm syncing with the Mac (iCal, contacts, etc) again because it would be nice for it to show the same calendar data.
I reinstalled the newest version of Palm Desktop from scratch. Installed the ePocrates software on top of it. I have iSync 2.4. My Palm was not listed as a device initially. I chose "Enable Palm OS Syncing" from the menu; iSync then went through a series of steps in which it disabled several conduits (presumably to no longer sync with the Palm Desktop), then told me to enable the iSync Palm conduit through the HotSync manager, which I did.
I now show the Palm as a device on iSync, but it has a yellow caution icon over it and I'm not sure why. Clicking on it shows an options dialog. I chose for the first sync I wanted to erase everything on the device and then sync with the Mac. My syncs appear to work, but when the data is checked it seems to sync only with Palm Desktop. The old junky data on the Palm was not erased as requested. Newer calendar events and contacts from my Mac have not made it to the Palm. The ePocrates auto update conduit is working fine but that's the only part that is.
Any idea what's incompatible, or what I'm doing wrong here?

I have The Missing Sync and used it to sync my palm TX. I am now in the process of trying to get iCal going properly again. No longer have any calender views in iCal and the week views don't show until I have opened a month view and then go back to the week view. Very bizzare. Also have a heap of untitled calendar views in the drop down list option when looking at the info on any event - these calendar views are not accessible anywhere else though.
I'm not sure if it is Missing Sync or something I did wrong at present. Will also throw the problem to the Missing Sync people to see what they say. Will let you know. It seemed to work really well without needing the palm desktop!

CC version incompatible with Mavericks?

Hi, i just upgraded my Mac to Mavericks. I got a message saying 'This version of Adobe CC is incompatible with the system.' Also, im getting a big PS CC error (inserted). AND, ive lost all the fonts i downloaded to my mac from Typekit. How do i resolve this? Pls help urgently. Thanks!

Thanks for giving that a try! Would you please send your recent sync log files to [email protected] so we can take a look?
On OS X:
* Open the Finder
* under the Go menu, select "Go To Folder"
* in the window that opens, type: /Users/(username)/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/
Note that you need to replace "(username)" with your own account name.
(Or if you are comfortable working from the Terminal, cd to $HOME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/)
Attach the recent CoreSync-yyyy-MM-dd.log files to an email. Please don't send a zip file, as they often get flagged as spam.
Thanks again,

Ovi Sync tool for Nokia 5800 - Cannot update exisi...

Hi,
I am using OVI Sync tool, to copy/sync my Phone contacts regularly on Outlook Address book.
There i found the bug in the OVI Sync manager, that if i have changed mobile number of contact "A"in my phone, i do sync using OVI suite on my PC, to update my same Outlook contact "A", the sync tool does not have intelligence to check whether the contact "A" has chnged its Mobile number in the phone, and it is mismatching with the one present in Outlook... (It simply does the sync process..and says no updates foundin the phone) i have marked the sync preference such a way that, "Always copy Nokia phone contents to Outlook"
Eg. Initially Outlook and Phone are in sync. Contact A - mobile numer - 111 (in outlook and in phone)
I change mobile number 111 to 000 in phone.
Now Outlook has 111 Phone has 000 for contact A
I do sync using OVI Tool
After sync complete, the Outlook contact should get updated to 000. Which is not happening
Please help
