Updates to the nokia maps application

It's becoming clear that after adding support for the e71 and e66 no other "old" device will be migrated to the last ovi maps.
these older devices will stick to 3.01 and the 10$ annual fee per region
ok let's accept this but...
it has been widely reported that the routing algorithm has some flaws in choosing the best route. there are many examples in this forum.
so i expect that it will be impoved in the future.
these improvements will be only for devices running 3.03 and later or will be they be backported also to 3.01?
this is quite important because a bad routing algorithm is very bad for a navigation application even if it is "cheap".

What "different development paths"? 3.03 is a newer version of the same software as 3.01, with new features and possibly some bug fixes too. I don't think there will be 3.01.1, if that's what you are expecting.
It is no secret that every now and then some older phone models will not get the latest OVI maps release. At least for me 3.01 is working quite well, so I don't see the problem with being "stuck" to 3.01, as long as they keep churning out map and POI updates also for 3.01. (I am not actually stuck to 3.01, but for now I prefer it to 3.03.)
Sometimes I feel Nokia must have the most demanding and cheapskate customers...

E61: Cannot install nokia maps application

I used to have Nokia Maps application installed in my E61 SD card, together with the maps. Then I had to re-format the card, loosing all information.
Once I try again to install Nokia Maps application in my handset, there is an "update error", and the application is not install. My guess: there is somewhere a registry that lists nokia maps application as already installed, and will not allow to re-install again.
I will appreciate your help.
Thanks!

Nokia have recently released a new version of Nokia Maps as well as MapLoader.
I would recommend that you download these (you can find them at http://www.nokia.com/maps) and try again.
First download the MapLoader program and try to delete any kind of previously stored map information on your phone, then download the appropriate Map program for your phone, and finally re-load MapLoader to load the relevant maps for your country on the E61.

Edward

Thinking of getting an iPhone - question on the GPS map application

Hi,
I'm at the end of the contract on my Nokia N95 and am thinking of switching to an iPhone as the N97 doesn't really look up to scratch.
One key deciding factor is whether the iPhone maps application can pre-load maps prior to overseas travel, so I don't have to crank up roaming data charges. The Nokia software is very good in this respect - you can pre-load, plan your routes on the phone etc. before you leave, and not use any data charges for the maps whilst you are away. Can the iPhone do this, & navigate without going on-line?
Thanks in advance!

No, the map application gets it's maps for google maps, which needs an Internet connection to do. There are no preloaded maps. There are turn by turn apps coming out soon that will require you to download map packs but nobody knows if they will need a network connection to work

How do you change the distance units in the new Maps application on Mavericks from KM to miles?

How do you change the distance units in the new Maps application on Mavericks from KM to miles?

The scale in Maps follows your regional settings in System Preferences > Language & Region > Region.
Selecting United States, for example, will use English units (feet and statute miles).
There may be other methods I'm unaware of.

Link to download the Nokia Map 2.0?

Hi!
Previously in Nokia website, I can easily find the link to download the Nokia Map v2.0 (the sis file for various phone models). The link was www.nokia.com/maps.
Now Nokia has launched the Ovi Map 3.0. With the same link above, now it only leads me to download the Ovi Map 3.0. However, my phone is old model like N73 and E61, etc. It does not support Ovi Map 3.0. In this case, I would like to ask anyone know the link to downlaod the old Nokia Map 2.0 or Nokia Map 1.3 sis files?
Thanks a lot

The new maps application doesn't work. I want Google Maps back!!!!
Most of the locations and search are not shown.
choose to go by bus is not working:(
I'm totally disappointed because of that.

Try doing a reset - hold down the sleep/wake button and the Home button together until the Apple logo appears, then let them go and allow the iPad to finish restarting. Then launch Safari and try to open a new tab.

Cant find the BB maps application and others

Hello all,
I have my BB 8900 curve brand new only 4-5 days old. In the main menu I can not see any icon of the BlackBerry maps plus one more application that I installed via the computer.
These applications appear as installed in the Advanced Options-> Applications but they do not appear in any folder as an executable icon like Options, SMS, Media etc.
Where can I find them and and make them appear in the main menu?
Thanks in advance
Anthony

I think what happened here is you attempted to mix and match versions of Garageband. Your issues are unlikely to have to do with Leopard versus Tiger. Since both Macs you have are Intel CPU Macs and they are just simply different generations of Mac Pro, your best method of migrating would be the migration assistant. Drag and dropping the audio files, after deleting what came with machine introduces a lot of room for error. So first, restore Garageband following these instructions from the discs that shipped with your Mac:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61802
Then follow these directions for the migration assistant:

Don't trash the Library files, those are bad habits you should avoid.

Nokia N95 not updating using the Nokia Software Up...

Hi guys
just got my n95 today, it has v10 fw on it and i would like to update it to v12.
ive downloaded and installed latest pc suite and downloaded the latest nokia update software
i run the updater and it says found new software (v12), please tick the box to acknowledge etc etc
so i click on ok, and it says updating....
then 2 mins later i get this screen:
http://aycu30.webshots.com/image/24429/2000451008485701969_rs.jpg
Which says "phone recovery - please remove battery and restart the phone"
so i got to take battery out and retry, but i get the same error. not too sure what to do now? the fw it downloaded was 113mb.
i have tried it on vista pc/laptop and a xp pro pc and still get the same error.
ive tried using different usb ports, connected the usb directly to pc (without any hubs etc) and still get the same error.
it looks like this n95 doesn't want to be updated. The n95 still works though, i just want to update its software
anyone had any thing similar? is there anything else i could try?
any help is much appreciated
thanksMessage Edited by bigup on 27-Jul-200710:15 AM

Handsets that allow for updating, have a small piece of software within them often called the boot loader, that allows the new upgraded software to be flashed into the device.
If the Boot Loader is damaged, then the upgrade of the device software from the Nokia Software updater cannot be performed.
A Nokia care point is able to rectify this because they can use the service connector on the handset to reflash the software with their equipment.
This will be done for free if your handset is in warranty.

Reader 11 does not recognize the default MAPI application Outlook 2013

I am having repeatable issues with Reader not being ablet to pop open an email from the Send File command in the File Menu.
All of the other applications such as QuickBooks and Word seem to open an email window and prepopulate it with the attachment as expected.
Here is the screen cap:
Note that Outlook is open and that it still does not recognize.
I can get the webmail interface to work with the Office2013/Office365 combo, but it only dumps a blank email with the attachment in your Drafts folder.
This problem has been shown to exist on both 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 7 and both 32 and 64 bit versions of Outlook 2013.
This is a growing issue amongst my Office365 client base, which is a growing client base. Any help would be considered a blessing!

Ok sorry I've taken so long to respond. The reply button wouldn't pop up for me to reply!
There was never a dialog box asking for me to select the program from installed programs when I open the pdf from outlook express. But when I opened a pdf from my desktop it asked that question and I had it "always use this program to open this type of file." So I assumed that it was would work when opening from outlook express. But it doesn't.
I've tried unclicking the protected mode button under the preferences general section. And finally I'm not sure how to post screenshots of the attachment thumbnail and dialog. I'm looking all over my keyboard for a button to push I don't have a clue as to what to do! I do have a print Scr button but when I click on it nothing happens. I've tried holding down the shift key and the button and the alt key and print scr button but nothing happens.
Could it be that somehow it's not recognizing ARCO.EXCH.DOCUMENT as that's what it thinks the type of document is?
I've already created an association for pdf files and it'll open them on my desktop, just not in outlook express.

Can't see the update to the DB mapped in physical layer of the Admin tool

Hello everybody!
I have an Access DB that i'm using to create a temporary data model for OBIEE.
When i update rows (add or erase rows in the tables) i can see them in the physical layer; instead if i add o remove table i don't see any variation on the Physical layer.
I restarted the OBIserver services and checked the ODBC that point to the access. Everything's ok!
Should i remapped the DB everytime i make the a varition in the number of the table in the DATABASE?
Can you give some help please!
Regards.

1.If you drop or create new tables, you would not see them in the physical layer.
2. The RPD is just metadata and not database.
3.BI server has nothing to do with the physical layer modeling
4. yes you need to remap (in physical) the new tables you create and the ones you drop.

Nokia Maps Update Information

Hi All,
On the Nokia Maps FAQ it states the following regarding updates:
1.11 How often is the map data in Nokia Maps updated?
The map data will be updated twice a year. You can check for map updates in the Nokia Maps application through Options > Settings > Network > Options > Check for map Updates.
On my E65 I don't appear to have this option to check for updates.
Can someone let me know how to check which map version I have and how to find out when new maps are available.
Cheers,
co

Hi chrowe
Whilst Nokia Maps is running goto Options > About to check what version you have.
Provided that a "network connection" is available I believe that the "Check for Map Updates only appears if application detects disparity between stored maps and those currently available, but I might be wrong on this.

Does Nokia Maps need to be online to work sometime...

Hi all,
I am very confused about the use of the free Nokia Maps applications. I have an N97 mini, and I was using the maps application throughout Egypt last week.
I had the settings placed "offline", and the application would open and would work fine, but whenever I did a search for a place, most times it would not find the place. Even common street names or popular tourist sites, could not be found offline. I then changed the settings to "online", and when I would do the same searches, it now would fine the places and streets.
However, when I checked my mobile phone provider account, using the "online" mode was using up all my phone credit.
So I am confused about whether I must be online to use the Nokia Maps application to find places, or should it work offline. What is the difference? And why does Nokia tell us its free, if in fact it uses up my phone account's data to find places that should already be in the maps application?
So I have 3 main questions I am unsure about:
1. Do i need to be online to search for some places, as it seems that offline it does not find all places?
2. If I am online, should it be charging me, or should it still be free?
3. When I update the maps, as I did, should that not include all the places on the maps that I find in online mode? Or are some places only found if I an online?
I must say we had so many problems using the maps application throughout Egypt- I do not recommend it to anyone for this place. It got us lost so many times, and once we ended up in some isolated poverty stricken town near the Pyramids of Sakkara- it was hell getting back! And it only worked when I went into online mode, and used up all my phone credit.

..and you are getting charged for using the Internet (Packet data) by your service provider and not by Nokia /OVI..

N76 Nokia Maps ERROR - STILL not fixed

My N76 has been updated to the latest firmware, but the nokia map application available on the nokia site is not compatible. It says Update Error, and I don't know why. I've used it on my other phones (n5800 and N97), but it won't install on my N76.
There has already been a post about this, but no solution has been given. This is really an emergency.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

One of the few issues with Acrobat 9 that is peeking above the radar is the C++ error when launching Acrobat 9. There are two things that seem to be resolving the issue. One is to uninstall, delete all Acrobat leftovers, and then reinstall. However the solution that seems to be fixing more cases is a new admin user. According to Scott Worthington several of his cases were caused by users not having the correct permissions. That is they were domain admins instead of local admins. The best way to create a new admin user in these cases is to use the "back door" approach of creating the new user thru Administrative Tools/Computer Management. In the Computer Management window right-click on Users under Local Users and Groups and from the context menu choose New User. Fill out the fields at the top of the window and then uncheck User must change password at next logon. After the new user is created right click on the new user name and choose Properties from the context menu. Go to the Member Of tab and click New then add Administrators to the list. Use the "Check Names" button to make sure the group name is correct.If it is correct it will become underlined. It needs to be capitalized and must have an "s" on the end. Click Apply and then OK.

Nokia Maps on 5800 XM keeps shutting down on start...

Hi everyone,
I bought the Nokia 5800 XM two weeks ago, and have been playing around with it. The Nokia maps application is really cool until recently, when everytime i start the maps application, it just shuts down automatically. I never get a chance to connect to the internet with it, or navigate using the touch screen. I recently installed nokia map loader as well and installed some maps, but nothing helps. The application keeps shutting down every time i start it. I also did a software reinstall using nokia software updater, but that didn't help either.
If anyone has this problem or knows how to solve it, i would be really thankful!

I am having the same problem. I've tried reloading from the Nokia site but the version there won't work - it says it is not compatible with the phone even though I selected the 5800 from the available phones list. No idea about a solution though.
