Txt from Nokia to say an update is available, but ...

Last night I got a text from "My Nokia" which said:
"A software update for your device is available from Nokia. Visit www.nokia.com/softwareupdate or your local Nokia support pages for more details."
I've been waiting for v6.xx for my phone for a while now, so I got excited and plugged my phone up and tried to update. Nope, v4.84 is the latest!
Just to make double sure, I checked the URL supplied in the text, and put my product code in - and it too told me v4.84 was the latest.
I can't download the phone software with my phone, because I get the message "Update not allowed. Contact service provider."
Nice. Thanks a bunch, Nokia!
5800 v20.0.012 -- 6500s v9.40 -- 6233 v5.43 -- 5140 v3.13

You are a funny fella. Like someone gives a damn about if find that a decent explanation or if you excuse it!
By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.

  • I bought a used macbook pro from a friend. Software updates are available, but when I try to update, the computer asks for apple id and will only accept the former owner´s. How can I connect my macbook to my apple id?

    The first thing you should do after acquiring a used computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the gray installation discs that came with it. If you don't have the discs, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, it should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.

  • ITunes says App update is available but it isn't there...

    I have had this problem before when an app was pulled from the store. But there are only 12 apps on my wife's itunes and all of them are in the correct folder and all of them appear to be updated and they all appear to be on the store. iTunes continually says that there is one app that needs to be updated but when I hit the update button there are no updates.
    I have updated all apps on my wife's iPhone and iPad and synced both of them several times but it doesn't help. The app store on both devices says there are no updates.
    Strange.

    This has been an ongoing issue on iTunes for a long time.  Today mine showed I had 2 updates available, but when I clicked it there were like 10.  Then after I updated it all, it still showed there was 1 update available and clicking it showed none.
    You would think that will all the updates to iTunes itself that Apple would have fixed this issue by now.

    epson scanner perfection 1640 SU <folder is not writeable> seem to happen after mountian lion upgrade .epson site says get the driver from apple. apple says no updates available. I had this problem the last time I upgraded but I do not recall how I fixed it.

    Hello Achates:
    I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
    Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

  • Aperture update is installed yet it say an update is available

    I updated to Moutain Lion. I updated Aperture to ver 3.4.1. Under app store updates it says an update is available with a red 1. Its for aperture. Yet when it brings updates available. Aperture is grayed out and says installed. But I still have the red 1 for it. Ive tried recycling the operating system. Bringing up aperture and confirming version. Im at a loss... I still have the red1 for an update for it... it shows up as grayed out and installed under purchased
    Under app store purchases It says "Download" for mountain lion yet im already downloaded, nstalled and running 10.8.2...

    Hi. Figured I'd get back to the folks here. My problem was fixed but resolution was highly complicated. Required speaking to backend engineering and them walking me through a fix. I evidently was the first to report this issue. Anyway, they can fix it but it requires uninstalling application, deleting files etc... then reinstalling... Wish I could be clearer but they tried a number of things...over a number of days...until figuring it out....
    My suggestion is to call them... Mountain Lion Integration Issue with Aperture and App Store.... Good Luck!

    I get banners messages that updates are available, but when the App Stroe applications searches for updates it can't find them and says that: no uodates are available. I had to download both the MAC OS10.8.1 and MAC OS10.8.2 manually from the Apple website.

    Hi Christianjr,
    When you say you reset your network settings, what do you mean, exactly?
    I saw another post on this issue, and the poster indicated that they resolved the problem by turning off their cellular date option and wifi options in Settings, and then turned them back on.
    Also, resetting your phone may help - press the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold both down until the Silver Apple appears. Once it is back up, click on the update option and see if it fixes the problem.
    If none of those things work, then need to have details on what you did to reset your network settings....
    Cheers,

    Hi Rojoleuleu, 
    Welcome to Nokia discussions board! 
    Unfortunately Nokia Music is not available in Indonesia. 
    If you cannot find Nokia Music on the market to download, this means it is not available for your country or region. 
    Feel free to post any other questions you may have.

  • PC Suite says no connection types available - but ...

    I've a 6500 Slide. I've installed the latest PC Suite 7.0.8.2.
    I have Windows XP with Service Pack 3.
    I used to be able to connect with PC Suite and update (etc.) but recently, after the most recent PC Suite upgrade, it doesn't recognise 'CONNECTION TYPES' on my machine.
    The USB cable and port work fine - in Windows I can drag and drop files.
    So why won't PC Suite recognise the cable and allow me to use the mobile through PC Suite?
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice.
    I've removed batteries and SIM cards from the mobile etc.
    All help gratefully received.
    Thanks

  • I have an ipod 1st generation, when i try to add a game from itunes it says an update is needed. How do I do this.

    I have a 1st generation ipod, when downloading games some say update ipod , the game does not go through. some games work some don't, the ipod will not update. what do I do.

    A 1G iPod Touch cannot be upgraded past iOS 3.1.3.  So if an app you have downloaded in iTunes requires a later version of iOS than 3.1.3, I'm afraid you won't be able to sync or use that app on your device unless you upgrade to a newer device that supports a later version of iOS.

    This is really weird.  I have iTunes version 10.6.1 and it says version 10.6.3 is available.  I click to download and it opens Software Update.  Suprisingly, software update says "All apps are up to date." What is wrong???
