What happens when i uninstall an application

Say, i download an application to my N8 via ovi. I dont like it and uninstall it using application manager. Now,
1) Can i reinstall the application without downloading it again?
2) Does the downloaded file still exist hidden somewhere in the device memory, eating up its space?
Solved!

As far as the First question goes.. your comments in the following thread indicate that you need not download again as you already have it on PC....

This may answer the second Question..

Thank you!
I found the answer for the first question after starting this thread. And it is really cool. Downloading via PC is clearly the best. You can reinstall whenever you want.
Ovi seems to be a one time installer (deleting the downloaded file after installation, as i gathered from the link you gave here as the answer for the second question).  So you have to download and install all the files again if something goes wrong with your handset.
Nokia should think from the place of an average customer to be more user friendly!

    Thanks to user turingtest2 for this solution.
    Solving MSVCR80 issue and Windows iTunes install issues.
    If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
    HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.

  • What happens when you uninstall??

    Well, looks like I'm one of MANY having problems with itunes ever since the last 'upgrade'. I have not tried to uninstall itunes yet, and I was wondering... do you lose all your downloaded songs if you uninstall the program, or are the songs 'stored' somewhere other than the actual software?
    So with everyone having problems, is Apple going to do anything about FIXING things?? I don't get on this board that much, so I'm sorry if I'm asking questions that have already been asked.

    If you have everything in iTunes and not separate folders on your hard drive then your songs are stored in the My Music>iTunes>iTunes Music folder. You should find the iTunes application in Program Files. If you are concerned about losing anything then back up the iTunes folder to disk beforehand.

  • What happens when the CC trial ends? What happens when offline?

    I need Lightroom to work offline on my laptop. What happens if I need to sign in to CC when there is no interned connection and what happens when the CC trial ends on both my laptop and desktop?

    Thanks for answering. I have the standalone version of Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 64 bit desktop. A number of times when have tried to open the program, the Adobe Application Manager has popped up requiring me to sign in even though I had not knowingly signed out. Lightroom will not launch unless I am signed in. Frequently when Lightroom launches, I see a "Server Busy" message telling me to "switch to the other program" without telling me which program to switch to. I have pinned the AAM to my notification area and have unchecked the "Show OS Notifications box" to see if the "Server Busy" message goes away. So far everything seems to be okay
    Again, thanks for answering me

  • TabNavigator - How to change what happens when a user clicks a tab

    I am using a TabNavigator in my Flex application and I'd like
    to be able to change what happens when a user clicks a tab on the
    TabNavigator. I'd like to be able to handle the click on the tab
    myself and stop Flex from perfoming it's default actions. Anyone
    have a clue how to do this? Any help would be much appreciated!
    Mike

    Yeah, in the following code, the changeHandler has an effect
    but the click effect does not:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <mx:Application xmlns:mx="

    <mx:Script>

    stocks.setStyle("fontSize",20);
    futures.setStyle("fontSize",20);
    private function changeHandler():void{
    accounts.setStyle("fontSize",7);
    stocks.setStyle("fontSize",7);
    futures.setStyle("fontSize",7);
    ]]>

  • What happens when i restore my iPhone?

    i was curious as to what happens when you plug your iphone into itunes and click restore.
    will i lose all my contacts and pictures?
    and will it make the backlight on my iphone work?

    A restore may help your iphone - it is one of the troubleshooting steps. Page 141 of the manual:
    "If you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, default settings are
    restored, and data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded applications,
    songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. In iTunes,
    you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone.
    Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but is not
    permanently erased from your iPhone until it is overwritten by new data. For
    information about permanently erasing all content and settings, see “Resetting
    iPhone” on page 109. "
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf
    I gave you the link to the Apple article to determine hardware failure earlier. If those steps or a reset, restore don't work then you need to call or visit Apple for a replacement.

  • What happens when buffers fill up?

    I guess this is a pretty basic question but my application is here. What happens when a buffer gets full? Does it stop reading and throw an exception or does it keep reading but destroy the information it received at the beginning? They question related to an application where I'd like, when an event is triggered, to store the last 10 seconds on video.

    i think you might get an exception (Array out of bound). Somehow it depends on how u implement your buffer.

  • What happens when a new cc version is available

    I am currently building a case as to why my employer should more to Adobe CC, however they have a few questions:
    1. When a new version of CC is available is it automatically downloaded and installed, or is there a choice to not upgrade?
    2. What happen when features get dropped in the new CC upgrades? for example TLF text in Flash is not supported in CC, so those working files would not longer be compatible.
    Thanks in advance for your reply

    1. There is a notification for update, and you have a choice to update or not to update.
    2. Usually new major versions are installed as separate apps, so you can get the new version and keep the old one for working with files that may not be compatible with the new version. Or if you need only the new version, you can uninstall the old one. For example when 2014 version Photoshop CC was released and if you chose to update, the update process left the old version installed.

  • What happens when an iPod is synchronized with an iTunes library that is bigger than the available space on the iPod?

    What happens when an iPod is synchronized with an iTunes library that is bigger than the available space on the iPod? I did this some time ago. On screen was shown available space somewhat less than 120 GB, but maybe somewhere between 10 and 20 GB more in the library. I had to get the iPod updated anyway, so I did proceed. However, afterwards the total content of the library was only about 110 GB. Now I wonder what did actually happen. Was the first sign only corrected for double copies of the same files or lost files or where files deleted from iTunes? And if files where deleted from iTunes, were they also deleted from my computer?

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

  • What happens when multiple users access the same servlet?

    Do the users share all the same resources? Or is a new process generated for each user? I have a servlet that builds a string to return to the user and I only have myself to test, so I can't really see what happens when many users access the servlet. Is there a possibility that the string will get screwed up, like when dealing with multiple threads, or do all the users get their own resources and I don't have to worry about that?

    huh? if you can point a test servlet at it, you can point a browser at it (even if the servlet does not serve html it will run)
    try pasting the servlet URL into a web browser
    refreshing multiple browsers repeatedly could provide a manual test

    I want to change my Apple ID because I have a new email address, but what happens when someone tries to facetime me using my old Apple ID? Will they still be able to contact me on facetime using my old Apple ID?

    Not if you change the ID.  You would need to give them the new address.

  • I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imac so I could install Windows 7 Home Premium and had no trouble everthing is working fine the only question I have is is there a benefit to migrating the 2 together and what happens when I do Thanks.  Ricco

    I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imack so I could install Windows 7 Home Premiumwith no problem and everthing is working fine, and I was thinking of Migrating the 2 2 and was wondering what benefits there would be and what happens when I do.

    Windows 7 will peer down through the VM and remember what hardware the VM is installed on. Migrate the VM to different Mac hardware, and on first boot, Windows 7 will advise you that you are not using genuine Microsoft Windows. It will then treat you as though it believes you misappropriated it.

  • Time Machine backup created on Mac with a large hard disk. What happens when restore to MacBook Air with small SSD drive?

    What if a Time Machine backup was created on a Mac with a large hard disk, e.g. 500GB iMac - and I buy a new MacBook Air with a small SSD hard disk e.g 128GB. What happens when I need to use the larger Time Machine file to set up the new MacBook Air? What happens to all those files that can't fit on the smaller SSD drive?

    It is not the HD size, but rather the size of the data it contains. If you right-click your 500GB drive and select "Get Info" you can see how much is actually being used.
    Naturally if you are using more space than the new drive has, then you have to make some choices about what you want to keep and what you want to keep archived.
    I don't know what options are available but you may simply have to do a manual restore of files you want, in groups.

  • What happens when I restore data to a non-factory set iPhone?

    Okay, another iCloud question. What I did was basically delete a game, start a new one, and now I want my old game back (saved to ICloud). What happens when I restore full data to a non-factory set iPhone? Will it overwrite current data? Will it delete everything? I just want to know, I'm such an iOS noob. :-/

    A restore is all or nothing.
    If a backup is restored to the device, ALL data currently on the device is wiped and replaced with the data from the backup.
    Restoring a backup to get one saved game back seems rather extreme and silly.
