Which GPS software for the N82 without A-GPS???

Hi, I am about to purchase my first Nokia phone, a N82. I also have never had a Symbian based phone before, either.
Which GPS software application do most people prefer for 'Turn by turn' navigation? Specifically, one that doesn't use the A-GPS function of the phone. I will NOT have a data plan with this phone, although I do have a wireless home network for downloading things.
Also, are any of them free to use??? I see some websites that look like they are free to download (http://www.nokiasymbianthemes.com), yet some places seem to want to charge a monthly fee (like the one that comes with the phone).
Any guideance here would be appriciated!
Thanks,
Mike

I just bought an N97. My old phone was an N95. The new phone, like the old phone, came with Nokia Maps. This is free to use, but it doesn't come with "Navigation". Navigation is the voice directions you expect to hear in the car. You have to buy a Navigation licence, either through the phone, through Nokia PC Suite, or from a third party site.
I took my old sim out and put it in my new phone.
When I tried the Maps function on my new phone, it went to the internet, found my old Navigation licence and transferred it to the new phone.
This left my old phone with no Navigation licence.I checked out various options to bring back the Navigation to my old phone including these:-
If you go through the phone, or PC Suite, you will have to buy a yearly licence. If you go to the TeleAtlas site, you will find McGuider software. This is another option.
This business of buying an annual licence has been bugging me for some time, so, In the end, I did what I've been thinking about for a while. I went
into Halfords and bought Garmin (UK and N, Ireland) software on a micro SD card for £49.99. One - off payment, not an annual charge.
It installs automatically, is a doddle to use compared with Nokia Maps, and gives you the option of using AGPS or not.
It's much easier to use than Nokia Maps, more intuitive, more powerful options, quick in its response, and I can finally read what it's telling me on the small N95 screen, as I drive.
I can heartily recommend it. Without the AGPS in use, it's still very quick in its response, but of course this is down to the quality of the GPS system, and where you are.
 HTH

  • How do i reinstall software for the superdrive without a disk

    Hi,
    I am trying to utilize my external superdrive and it says hardware or software isn't recognized.  I cannot find my reinstall disk so is there one I can download from the Apple site? Which one?
    Thank you!

    So you had Snow Leopard on your computer and your friend installed Mountain Lion from what? The only legal way is to buy it from the app store. If that was not done, then I'm not sure how to get out of the mess except to reinstall Snow Leopard and then buy Mountain Lion (if you don't do that, you will have endless problems because your OS install won't be recognized). You won't be able to get updates because the app store checks your Apple ID and your machine ID.
    If you have the disks for your software, then just reinstall from the disks (I'd do it after you get the OS mess rectified). If the software was bought and downloaded from the app store, it should be listed under your Purchases and you can re-download it.

    Actually your suggestions are the ones that i have tried. i have seen that you have tried to help others with this issue and the only one that i could find that said they found the problem said that it was an ilife update issue and it fixed it and i have no available updates. i know it has to do with something in photo stream because it happens when i create a new library and it is loading the photos but i get the message before i reach the maximum 1000 photos. so i've tried updating, new library(first backing up photos and then deleting them from iPhoto), reinstalling OSX many times, running disc utilities. I called Apple the first day i had this issue and i was the first person to call them for support with the retina display and i actually had it escalated to a senior advisor and we thought we fixed the problem but we did not. i am pretty fluent in dealing with troubleshooting these type of issues and this is the first time i'm reaching out to the community. i figured now that the retina has been out some time now that there would be an obvious answer to this issue. thanks for the quick reply.

  • Programming for the mac without using xcode

    Hi
    I'm very new to programming for Apple platform. I wanted to clear some doubts which is currently standing as a barrier in getting started.
    Can I use a text editor (preferably TextMate), Interface Builder, and the Terminal (without using xcode to write & compile) to develop software for the Mac. I have installed the xcode package (~900 mb image).
    Can you point me to some resources on terminal commands for compile, debug codes for the mac. (Obj-C, Cocoa api)
    Thank You.

    You can use anything you want to develop software for the Mac. In fact, I always encourage people to start out with tutorials and examples using standard UNIX command line tools like vi and gcc. There are plenty of such getting started tutorials for UNIX and Linux.
    At some point, however, the command line is going to get cumbersome. You may want go start writing true Mac applications instead if command line tools. Then it will be time to start with Xcode.

    There are plenty of them around such as Fring, Gizmo etc etc etc.
    However, my favourite at the moment is Fring because it allows me to call my friends on Skype, Msn, Yahoo etc etc for free, while also allowing me to call mobiles and landlines at a nominal cost using my Skypeout account. 
    You can download Fring from

  • TS3147 Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R2000 because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.

    Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R2000 because it is not currently available from the Software Update server???
    I am using mac osx 10.8 and now cant get print software for epson R2000 printer.

    After system update, my Epson Stylus SX 535WD was ''gone''. I tried in vain to add it as an IP printer (got the IP-address from the printer). The printer model is correctly recognized, software download starts -- but then  the "software ... is not currently available..."
    Resetting  the printing system did not help. Downloading Epson Printer Drivers v2.15.1 from  here
    did not help either, downloading Epson Printer Drivers.
    In the end, I re-installed the printer software from the original CDs. After that the printer showed up as a Bonjour Printer, and I could add it without problem.
    But note: although the printer is installed now and working properly, I still get the old error message (...software ..not available...) if I try to add the printer as an IP printer !?

  • Is it better for your battery if you let it run down all the way and then charge it? Or to charge it whenever you have the opportunity?  Which is better for the life of the battery?

    I was wondering it the life of the battery would last longer if you let the battery run down all the way and then charge it? Or to charge it whenever you have the opportunity even if it doesn't have a low battery?  Which is better for the life of the battery and prolong the life of the battery?

    I've had a iPhone 4s since March 2012, and it's battery is pretty useless now.  I was using the app Battery Doctor (Battery Saver, Battery Life) by Beijing Kingsoft Internet Security software, which encourages the user to charge more often, whenever battery life drops below 100% full and greater than 20% full, and gives ratings according to the number of full, partial & overcharges done, but I'm concerned that charging like that actually results in worse battery life??
    I now have an new iPhone 5 and don't want the battery to only last as short as the last one did
    Any advice/comments please

  • Can I bundle flash player with a free downlodable gaming service that requires flash? Or can I download it for the user without making users to step out  from my product to a completely different flow?

    We have a free downloadable gaming service that requires flash player in order to operate properly.
    I am trying to figure our how can I make users who don't have flash to download it, but I don't want these users to leave my service and start a different download flow in a different website (adobe's) .
    I thought about several different options but don't know what would be considered legal or legit:
    1. download flash along with my product- this means I will have to add another offer screen to my installation? if so, it will damage my conversion.
    2. downloading flash for the user without consent- probably will result with AV alerts
    3. open an iframe for users who don't have flash where I'll ask users to download flash--> that still will redirect users to adobe website to complete the process, which will damage my usage...
    any comments on the above or additional ideas?
    Thanks
    Tom

    Unfortunately, I don't think that our license currently grants the rights that you're looking for.  We do allow for the inclusion of original installers on physical media to address the situation of installation where an Internet connection is not guaranteed to be available; however, the Adobe download center serves an important role in the cost-recovery efforts for the continued development, maintenance and distribution of Flash Player, which is a tremendously expensive undertaking. I think it's unlikely that we would agree to allow the inclusion of Flash Player installers in scenarios where the host installer requires an internet connection.
    Here is a brief summary of the rights granted by this license:
    Licensee is permitted to distribute Adobe Web Players to multiple clients in a closed intranet environment.
    Licensee is permitted to distribute Adobe Web Players to multiple end-users by including the Player installers on CDs, DVDs or other physical media.
    Usage of Adobe Web Players is only permitted for supported platforms; usage rights on non-PC devices or embedded systems are not granted by this license.
    Licensee must use the installers as-is without modification.
    Licensees, at their discretion, are entitled to display the Flash Enabled and/or Shockwave logos on products or intranet sites according to the Style Guide.
    On the plus side, you don't have to worry about serving your users outdated or vulnerable Flash Player versions, and keeping those embedded copies constantly updated would be a lot of overhead.
    Chrome and Internet Explorer on Win8+ always have Flash Player built-in, so those users are generally going to be in good shape (and you shouldn't redirect them to the download anyway, because we'll just give them a message about it already being installed).  IE11 eliminates JavaScript support for conditional comments and various other methods for fingerprinting and targeting IE with IE-specific logic, so you'll want to pay attention to that experience, particularly on Win8+ (i.e. your detection logic might need to be tweaked on this config, if it's depending on isMSIE to do the correct thing... there is a lot of busted Flash detection in the world on this target at the moment...)
    For NPAPI browsers (Safari, Firefox), users are going to have to close the browser to complete the install process, so I don't think that offering the download in an iframe is going to buy you much, and would probably make it more difficult to complete the installation steps, ultimately doing more harm than good. 
    In the case of Safari, the installer re-launches Safari at the end of the installation process, and it does so without reopening all of the previously opened tabs.  I'm hoping that we won't have to live with that issue much longer, but I want to be transparent about the impact to your user experience.  Safari users are going to lose the tab with your site in it during the installation process no matter what. 
    There's also an install mechanism called Express Install, which you can invoke automatically when you detect that Flash Player is not installed, or is below the version that you require.  Off the top of my head, I don't know exactly what happens in every possible install scenario (patch update vs. feature update, by OS and browser).  I think some configs require you to restart and others like IE on Windows don't.  It's all dictated by browser limitations, which are constantly moving targets. 
    In short, we recommend that everyone use SWFObject2 for detecting Flash from JavaScript, and they make it pretty easy to invoke upgrades via ExpressInstall.

  • HT2404 I have a 2011 macbook pro 13".  I am trying download software for the clear network and it won't let me saying I'm running in a 64 bit mode and I need to change my computer to a 32 bit mode before downloading.  Is that possible and how do I do it?

    I am trying to download software for the clear internet network.  It is telling me that I am running in a 64 bit mode and
    need to be in a 32 bit mode to run their software....can I and how do I change it to a 32 bit mode?

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

  • Original OS 9 software for the iMac Graphite

    just curious i picked up an older iMac at a thrift store however, of course it didn't come with any software. i thought i could load OS X.2 which i did, and that was fine, but so i ordered the software from someone on ebay, but my question is this: will the OS 9 and 10.0.4 software for the iMac Graphite work on my iMac. the specs on the one i bought are: indigo, 500, 20GB, 128 RAM, CD-RW.

    Hi, Tim -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    Your indigo iMac 500MHz model can be one of three iMac model series. Each has its own minimum OS version, which is the one it originally shipped with. These are -
    • iMac (Summer 2000) - OS 9.0.4
    • iMac (Early 2001) - OS 9.1 (and OSX 10.0.3 on later models)
    • iMac (Summer 2001) - OS 9.1 and OSX 10.0.4
    All of the OS 9 versions above, the ones that shipped with those models, are model-specific versions - that means that a retail OS 9 Install CD of equal version may not work. However, a retail OS 9 Install CD of the next higher version will work.
    It is doubtful that CDs that came with a graphite iMac will work for the machine in question, unless the graphite model is of the same model series as the indigo one (there were graphite models in all three series given above, plus one in at least one other model series).
    To find out which model series yours belongs to, click the Support tab at the top of any of these pages. On the new page, scroll down, look to the lower right of the page for the section About Your Support Coverage. Enter your machine's serial number in the box, click the Go button.

  • Which system software for a Xserve G4?

    which system software for a Xserve G4?

    The highest you can go is 10.5.8 server.  If you need ACLs, then go this route.  If you can run with POSIX inheritance, then you can stay with 10.4.11. 
    If you are behind auth proxy and go with 10.5.8, watch out for the runaway swupdate process.
