Problems with getting a satellite signal when usin...

I've just bought CoPilot Live 6 for my Nokia N95 8gb but 98% of the time can't get a signal from the satellites. It just keeps seaching and searching. I'm using the internal antenna, but I know its compatible cos there's a an option to chnage from internal to bluetooth in the CoPilot Live 6 software. Most of the time it doesn't get a satellite lock but i've managed to get a fix on satellites twice, but only when the sky is 100% clear of clouds.
I need help, what do you guys think?

Yeah I had the slider open. I'm thinking, I don't know, maybe it'd be a good idea to get a bluetooth receiever cos I was gonna get one anyway. A Holux M-1200 which is supposed to be brilliant.
Not a bad idea investing in an external GPS as reception is going to deteriorate over the next few years as solar flare activity increases to a peak in 2011/12.

    Can you open the Preview program without loading a file, like by itself?
    If it doesn't load then I suspect a corrupt Preview preference file.
    Deleting the System Preference or other .plist file
    Can you open other files with Preview, like jpg's and images?
    How about other PDFs? or is it just that one you have downloaded?

    Just moved my email from Entourage to Mail. Having real problems with getting my signatures to work properly despite sending email as Rich Text.
    When adding in a small company logo to the signature, PC's / windows computers only receive signature and logo as attachments.
    I've tried all possible fixes I can find including getting a PC user to format the logo but no joy. Has anyone experienced this and any ideas on a fix gratefully received.

    Send it as html so the signature is an image source URL

  • Hello, i have a problem with my macbook air. When i try to open my iPhoto i should wait about 3mins to get opened it and also in it just appeared around 57000 photos! in which i have 2000. they are not mine, the photos are pics of other people or things

    If you want help you’ll need to give us more information. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • TS2755 I am having a problem with getting notified when I receive a call or a text.  My phone will not ring or vibrate.

    I am having a problem with getting notified when I receive a call or a text.

    Hi BigBroMAC,
    The first thing I would check is Do Not Disturb mode, as this will cause that behavior:
    iOS 6: Using Do Not Disturb
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5463
    If that isn't the issue, this article has slightly different symptoms but the troubleshooting would be the same:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    Before you do step 10, however, I recommend resetting all settings to see if that helps.  To do that, choose Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
    I hope this helps!

    I still have problems with getting my website online. I have defined my server. Then I did the test and there was a connection via FTP. I put my files on the external server and there is a connection with the external server. But when I check to see my website online (with Firefox, Explorer, Chrome browser) I always get the message 'Forbidden, You don't have permission to access / on this server.' Can somebody help me please? I have to get my website online..Thank you!

    Hello Els,
    it's well known, that in all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed Troubleshooting (I see Nancy#s smile already).
    To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
    To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
    Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
    And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
    http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
    Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
    http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
    Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
    Good luck!

    P.S.
    Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

I can tell my story proerly, but am not sure, you guys can help, so I just copy my message to them today, I am trying to get it across all the places around to pay their attention.

    I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me:  “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
    It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that,  guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone)  authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
    Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.

    Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
    So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542

  • Problem with getting iPod to work.

    I'm having a problem with getting an iPod to connect to my computers. Also I can't even really get it to run. My brother gave it to me one or two years ago and it had these problems I just didn't think of the idea of going directly to Apple to figure it out. It's a 30 GB black iPod if that helps. When I plugged it in it showed the battery symbol. When I leave it for a while it shows the Apple symbol. Then it comes up with this: http://spirrwell.webatu.com/ipod.jpg If you can help thanks in advance!

  • Problem with getting resized image's bytes

    I've got a problem with getting correct bytes of a newly resized image. The flow is that I retrive an image from the filesystem. Due to the fact that it is large I resize it to a 50x50px thumbnail. I can display this thumbnail in #benchmark1 (see code below). Unfortunately something's wrong with my imageToBytes funtion which returns reasonably small size of image but is totally useless - I can't make an image of it anymore so at #benchmark2 the application either crashes or keeps freezing. I saved this byte array on my disk and tried to preview under Windows how does it look but I got a message "Preview unavailabe". I did some digging in the Internet and I supposed that it's because I don't use any jpg or png encoders to save the file. Actually I think that it's not the case, as the bytes returned from method imageToBytes look weird - I cannot even make a new image of them and display it without any saving in memory.
                                  byte[] bytes = FileHandler.readFile (
                                          FileHandler.PHOTOS_PATH, fileName);
                                  Image img2 = Image.createImage (bytes, 0, bytes.length);
                                  img2 = ImageHandler.getInstance ().resize (img2);
                                                    //#benchmark1
                                  bytes = ImageUtils.imageToBytes (img2);
                                  img2 = Image.createImage (bytes, 0, bytes.length);
                                                    //#benchmark2my imageToBytes function is as follows:
         public static byte[] imageToBytes (Image img)
              int[] imgRgbData = new int[img.getWidth () * img.getHeight ()];
              byte[] imageData = null;
              try
                   img.getRGB (imgRgbData, 0, img.getWidth (), 0, 0, img.getWidth (),
                           img.getHeight ());
              catch (Exception e)
              ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream ();
              DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream (baos);
              try
                   for (int i = 0; i < imgRgbData.length; i++)
                        dos.writeInt (imgRgbData);
                   imageData = baos.toByteArray ();
                   baos.close ();
                   dos.close ();
              catch (Exception e)
              return imageData;
    I've run totally out of any idea what's wrong, please help!

    Hey Crawlie,
    Please note that simply writing int values into ByteArrayOutputStream will not suffice. Please have a look at the following conversion from int pixel value into byte[4]:
    public static final byte[] intToByteArray(int value) {
            return new byte[] {
                    (byte)(value >>> 24),
                    (byte)(value >>> 16),
                    (byte)(value >>> 8),
                    (byte)value
    }Good Luck!
