What can you do while maps are running?

Heya, I have a nokia 5800 and the maps service is pretty good (except the waiting for GPS problem).
It's a bit impractical for me to test myself, but does anyone know what you can do while the Ovi maps software is on?
For example, say I have the GPS set to take me somewhere, can I switch applications to a game or something and still have the voice over of Ovi maps in the background?
Also generally, does anyone know if the "Send to phone" feature on the Ovi store (the one you access from the computer) costs money? Or is it free.
Cheers

Jason,
As a matter of fact, you can test this yourself...just start Maps, create a walking route, and then try to do something...whatever it is that you are interested in trying out...call your mobile from your home phone, switch applications...figure out whatever it is you want to, and let us know if you find something interesting
As for the "send to phone" feature, it will simply send you an SMS.  It will cost you whatever a regular incoming SMS costs you.  An alternative it to use Ovi Store from your phone when you are connected with WiFi if you want to avoid costs.

  • Hi, Can you help me I am running an iMac 10.7.5 and iPad 6.0.1 and a macair10.8.2. iCloud is syncing emails and notes but not photos. Photo streaming is switched on on the iMac. what do I need to do to stream photos?

    Hi, Can you help me I am running an iMac 10.7.5 and iPad 6.0.1 and a macair10.8.2. iCloud is syncing emails and notes but not photos. Photo streaming is switched on on the iMac. what do I need to do to stream photos?

    Hi you have basicly 2 Options.
    1 -if you Switch One fotostream on all 3 devices of yours which are working on the same apple id -all Fotos you Take with your iPad will be synchronized via icloud to the other 2 decvices ( w-lan and battery depending).
    2- If you select foots or a whole album in iPhoto on your air or iMac and choose than puplish --> fotostream --> new or existing event you can key in a friends mail. If this friend has iCloud and iPhoto ( for iMac or MacBook ) and click on the link in the email it will download this fotos in the fotostream section in iPhoto. If he has a iPad, iPhone,... It will do it in the foto app and if he doesn't have a iCloud account at all and you choose "public web site" while publishing he can see your fotostream on a website.

  • Can you see which apps are open and/or running like you can on an android phone by going to settings applications running services?

    can you see which apps are open and/or running (like you can on an android phone by going to settings>applications>running services)?

    Hi wjosten,
    thank you for the help.  I should have said I had a iphone 3.  A friend has the same phone and she showed me how she can see what web pages are open when she double taps the home button.  Mine is set to bring up favourites when I double tap (chosen from settings>general>home button).. BUT my choices are only HOME; SEARCH; PHONE FAVORITES; CAMERA or IPOD.  I changed my choice to HOME but that just defeats the purpose as when I am at the home page and double tap nothing happens.  Am I making sense?

  • How can I tell if programs are running in the background.

    iPod touch version 4.2.1, how can I tell if programs are running in the background.  Battery is dead quickly and time/date reverts to Dec 31, 1969.  can see thin silver frame around screen like something is running in background.

    You really can't tell unless you hear music or similar. Many are always listening for notifications and other things.
    To preserve battery life see the following:
    Apple - Batteries - iPod
    I leave mine in airplane mode when sleeping.

  • After upgrading to OS5 my i phone is not showing names of incoming callers in my contact directory, i can only see number of incoming caller. Is there any settings to put this right? what can you do?

    after upgrading to OS5 my i phone is not showing names of incoming callers in my contact directory, i can only see number of incoming caller. Is there any settings to put this right? what can you do?

    This started happening to me on my iPhone 4. Some text messages show only the numer they came from and those same numbers do not show the contact name in my calls list, even though the contacts are saved and synced via iCloud. I have tried to save different versions of the number in the same contact, but it won't work. If I call one of the recent numbers though, the conact comes up. I have tried reseting and restoring to no avail.

    Have you tried here:

    You can check your warranty coverage by entering the SN here:

    For how to get warranty work see:

    The fastest is to make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • HT4914 How can you tell which songs are downloaded from the cloud on an ipad

    How can you tell which songs are downloaded on the iPad from the cloud?

    I know ipad albums are more like tagging photos rather than putting them in folders. I just have a nagging feeling I missed some pics and I have too many to try to go figure out one by one. I don't look at my photos from the camera roll, only from albums I tagged just because I imported photos from different sources and the dates and order is really messed up. I just want to know that I am viewing all the photos from like this vacation or that event and there's none I missed that are only in the camera roll.

  • I have mac osx 10.6.8 and I keep getting update notices that do nothing, just search for update server. Happens every day. What can you or I do to fix this?

    I have mac osx 10.6.8 and I keep getting update notices that do nothing, just search for update server. Happens every day. What can you or I do to fix this? Other people I work with and use macs have the same issue.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
