Which of these methods is the most reliable, when ...

1- "Can I Update?" at Nokia.com?
2- Checking on "NSU"?
3- Checking on "FOTA?"
Let's say if we see "No Updates Available" at "Can I Update?" section of Nokia.com, should we trust it and skip searching for new firmware on other sources such as NSU or FOTA?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The "can I update" page where you enter your product code only applies to NSU updates.  It does not tell you if FOTA updates are available.
The page sometimes can lag behind the actual firmware availability by a few hours or even a few days.
So to be sure to get updates ASAP you have to check FOTA and the NSU as updates can be released on one but not the other.
There are other unofficial tools that provide much more detailed info of NSU releases, but they cannot be discussed on this forum.

  • What is the most reliable way to run one Windows accounting program in Osx 10.5.8?

    I have a simple Windows application where I basically do my accounts. I do not want to tie up my Imacs resources with running a full Windows Os "emulation" like Paralells or VMware Fusion just to run a simple accounting program.
    I have heard about apps that can run one windows application at the time through a kind of Osx Application which emulates windows some how. Is is true that this is a better way of running my accounting program? Is it reliable? What I do is to punch in invoices and print out reports basically. How much resources does this "consume" to run it in "one simple application mode" in comparison with for example Paralells?
    And what is the term for running windows in "one simple application mode"?

    I guess you could try the free trial of CrossOver. http://www.codeweavers.com/products/crossover/ You did not say what app you want to run so it is difficult for us to recommend crossover as being able to run the app.
    But your question is that you are looking for the "most reliable" way to run a Windows program. In my opinion you need Parallels or Fusion. These run the real Windows OS so my thinking is it is the "most reliable" method of running a Windows app on an Apple computer, other than Boot Camp.
    But you said you don't want Parallels. This is probably why you have not received any responses. You eliminated the most reliable and easiest method, in my opinion, when you initially posted. Parallels does not consume any resources until you start it up to use your app. You can close it after you are done with your app. Of course hard drive space is required for storing the OS, your app, and data. But you still need to store your app and data regardless of method you choose.
    One more thing, Parallels and Fusion create a virtual machine for running Windows.
    So my recommendation, use Parallels or Fusion.

  • How can i see which items are taking up the most disk space

    I have a Titanium PowerBook G4 with a 20GB hard drive. I'm currently using 15GB. I have tried searching through my hard drive to see which programs are taking up the most space. When I add up the totals of the various folders, etc., it's not 15GB worth. I feel like some items must be nested somehow, making them difficult to find. Is there some way to search your computer by size of items? I know that opening the hard drive and clicking on the size tab will sort things according to size. However, the folders don't show their size unless you click on them individually. Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    While viewing a Finder window go to View>Show View Options, put a check in the box for 'Calculate All Sizes'. This is a setting you don't normally want to have turned on as it slows down the refresh when you switch windows, so you might want to remove the check once you identify the disk hogs.
    BTW- You can free up a lot of disk space & RAM if you remove any fonts that you & the OS don't really need. You may also have a great deal of space taken up by unnecessary printer drivers, not to mention the plethora of ReadMes & other 'goodies' that get added when you install software.

    I have an icloud account which I can access via the web but when I go to systems preferences and click on the icloud it sends me to the mobileme closed site?? How do I get it to go to my icloud log in?

    You're saying that when you click on the  iCloud preference pane button it sends you to the defunct MMe
    rather than giving you this?
    Is your profile up to date, i.e. are your running 10.7.5?  Make sure you click on the iCloud button and not the MMe button.

  • Is this supposed to be the most reliable database server? A msg to oracle.

    Hi, it's been 3 weeks now that I'm fiddling with oracle 11g and I am surprised with the amount of installation/startup/shutdown/management issues that I am facing. I need to evaluate oracle as a possible replacement for sql server, I am supposed to test oracle's scalability vs sql server scalability but so far I was messed up by all kind of installation/management issues. Is Oracle a product always in alpha stage?
    I am not new with oracle, I've used oracle 10g in the past and I went through all the oracle library documentation (concepts, dba guide, sql reference etc). By now I am pretty confident with db concepts like control files, redo logs, spfile, tablespaces etc.
    I've installed it on 4 machines:
    1. windows xp 64bit, 40GB Ram
    installation went ok, database + listener + dbconsole started correctly. I did a few things but after rebooting the machine the db did not start! (it complained that it tried to allocate 0 bytes of memory where it needed 2mb for some reason).
    dbca is supposed to configure an instance but guess what? To configure the instance if first must start the instance and ofcourse in my case it couldn't start the instance!!!
    After reading docs, googling etc, I exported spfile to pfile , manually edited the pfile, imported the pfile as spfile and the db finally started working.
    Why on earth a product costing so much can't survive a reboot?
    2. centos 5.3 64bit on a P4 machine with 2gb ram
    installed ok, database + listener + dbconsole started ok after install. There is no script that I am aware which starts or shuts down the db nor the installer prompted me to install the db as a service (/etc/init.d). So I manually had to create scripts to start/shutdown the db by exporting ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID and using dbstart.sh and dbshut.sh and also calling emctrl start dbconsole.
    Which means that if someone doesn't shut down the instance before rebooting linux, will the db shut down abnormally?
    I would expect a product that costs £13k to install itself properly on linux. mysql is free but comes with proper installations in most linux flavors.
    3. centos 5.3, 64bit on an athlon 64 3000+ with 1gb ram.
    installed ok, database + listener + dbconsole started ok after install. As you can guess, it didn't survive a reboot. Anyway to make long story short, I managed to create startup/shutdown scripts and all started working.
    Then I tried to play admin for a while, i.e. tried to move tablespaces, backup/restore db, backup tablespaces and so on, using dbconsole. Oh well, I can't count the times dbconsole was failing... Are we the beta testers of dbconsole?
    But then I needed to change the domain name of the machine and bang! All db services broken again. After fiddling with listener.ora and other config files that I don't remember, I managed to make db and listener work again but not the dbconsole which doesn't want to start and also I don't know where are the log files (there are so many log folders....) Anyway I am still digging into the documentation.
    4. fedora 9 32 bit, 2gb ram. Same issues like #2,#3.
    I've the following suggestions for oracle:
    1. Less configuration files for oracle's next version.
    2. Installation should "do it all" for the user in all operating systems
    3. a dedicated testing team for dbconsole - it's just buggy
    4. improvements on db,tablespace backups and movements. Is it so hard to create a utility that create a zipped backup of tablespaces or the database which can be used on a different server to restore the files?
    I've still not worked on my main task : to test scalability. More comments will follow...
    Regards,
    Kostas

    Hi, found the log file, it is under .../dbhome_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_server.lan_orcl/log
    It appears that oc4j was trying to load the encryption keys file from OC4J_DBConsole_localhost_orcl, didn't find it, oc4j was then exiting but emctl was constantly trying to restart oc4j!!! One more cool "feature" of oracle.
    Anyway, I managed to fix that issue but now oc4j/dbconsole still doesn't start, dunno why, the log says:

  • Which of these would be the best iMac for video editing?

    Hello, pretty simple question, which of these 2 iMac configurations would be best suited for video editing? I want to use Final Cut Pro X and Adobe After Effects (not cutting edge effects just simple stuff).
    Option 1 - 21.5 inch
    3.1GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
    16GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X8GB
    1TB Fusion Drive
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1GB GDDR5
    Option 2 - 27 inch
    3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz
    8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB
    1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5
    For some reason Apple don't offer more than 1GB of dedicated video ram in anything but the maxed out 27inch. Personally, I’m not fussed about the bigger screen and  I would say that having the faster processor, double the ram and a fusion drive would be more beneficial than the extra gig in the video card  but I’m not 100% sure, what do you guys think?
    Thanks.

    If you do a significant amount of video editing the larger display is nice but not absolutely necessary. I’d also recommend an SSD or Fusion drive rather than the stock mechanical drive which really is dog slow. If you choose an SSD 8GB will be plenty though 16GB is better if you go with the smaller model.

  • Finding out which songs/videos/apps use the most space

    Is there a way to see which songs/videos/apps are using the most space on the iPhone?
    I'd like to get a unified list of all files / directories, sorted by size -- the same thing you get by running
    the command
    du | sort -n
    on a unix directory tree.
    thanks,
    ilya

    The iPhone's file structure is not browsable in that way. You can check the file sizes in iTunes - for example, select a playlist that's synced to the iPhone and secondary-click in the column header area, then select the Size field and click on that field header twice to sort the playlist in descending size order.

  • How to set PS for the most reliable image previews and how to make sure the color spaces are the same across plateforms

    I've been having an ongoing problem with some of my images changing color/luminance values after merging or flattening an image. This seems to most often happen if I use one of the filters (like crosshatch or notepaper, not sharpen or blur). I can make a copy using command/option/shift + E which most often will look exactly like what's on screen.
    Some people have suggested that it's to do with resolution, PS showing me a low resolution image but I don't think so because the histogram changes -- sometimes in a big way, but most often those spikes in the luminance levels are shaved off. Also, when I have the image open at 100% and effect a merge/flatten, the color changes.
    I'd like to know if there's a way to have PS show me one for one what I'm working on while I'm working on it, or if there is a way to control the color profiles when I'm saving. My best guess at this point is that there is a color profile mismatch going on somewhere. I just don't know where to look for it.
    Typically I work in 16 bit, so my color space is set to ProPhoto RGB; my camera is set to the Adobe color space;
    color management policies are set to preserve color profiles;
    conversion options --> intent is set to relative colorimetric.

    But it is calibrated. I use Xrite 1 and update it every month (on the first).
    The colors can be really off. Here's an example.
    https://flic.kr/p/r6A1Zd (what I want) https://flic.kr/p/qc5QTD (not what I want)
    Also, I can't see how the bit depth will have any effect since the change in color happens in PS when I merge or flatten. It's 8 bit through the editing and 8 bit when I flatten it.
    Have you any suggestions on what I can do on the computer side?

  • Which Apple MacBook Pro has the most RAM and HDD memory?

    I would like to know this because I plan on buying a MacBook Pro and I just want to make sure I'm buying the one with the most RAM and HDD memory and not some other one. Why do I need specifically this? Because I'm a gamer; I like playing games. I'm a watcher too; I like watching movies. Last but not least, I would like to sync my iPhone to a device that's from the same company. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I don't like uncoordination, or something like that. In short, I don't believe in "clashing". Even electronics.

    The Hardware In Any Mac is Exactly the same as used in Any PC of like model year and included hardware. i7 being faster then an i5 CPU.
    Apple uses the same exact Intel CPUs and Chipsets that all other computer use manfacturer today. There is No difference.
    Ogelthorpe is comppletely correct that Windows, by nature of the OS, is better for running games and the hardware it comes on, by nature of the way they are manufactured even though it is the same hardware as in a Mac, is better for gaming because of the way they are cooled and the overall case design. More air vents and better air movement across the parts that get hot while gaming.
    Mac notebooks on the other hand don't cool as well by nature of the air intake and exhaust systems. Both air intake and exhaust are at the screen hinge and the fans are designed to be quieter then on most Windows PC notebooks. Even if Windows is installed on Mac that Mac will run hotter then a PC with the same exact hardware configurations. This is a fact and experienced by many Mac users. Including myself.
    Mac fans run all the time. From the second you start them up to the second they shut down completely. I personally don't know of any Windows PC notebook that do that. My Dell E6420 with the exact same CPU and more RAM, 16GBs in the Dell and 8 in my Mac, with the Dell having 2 drives, one a SSD the other a Spinner in the media bay, and the Mac having only one Seagate XT series in the main bay the Dell fans rarely come on unless I am taxing the system in some way. They are not on continuously and certainly not when I turn the system on. So Apple has designed the Mac to run the fans continuously to try and keep the system cool from the first power on.
    So your statement is completely false. But it is what most people think even though it is unfounded.

  • What is the most reliable MP3 pla

    Having trouble finding a MP3 Player which doesn't have problems and lasts longer then 2 months.
    I would welcome anyones recommendations. Even other brands.
    also tell me of the ones to avoid.

    MP3 players are not rugged technology, particularly those with hard dri'ves. They won't take a lot of abuse, and are arguably still a little on the evolving side when it comes to Joe Public. This goes for all makes and models.
    If you're after something really rugged you might want to stick with a player that uses flash memory.
    Another way to keep a player lasting well is to buy a good quality protecti've case for it. It keeps the player looking good and protects it from scrapes, and a little from bum
    ps.
    Although a couple of Creative players have had problems with the notorious headphone jack the newer models purportedly are OK, so I can't think of any Creative player to avoid specifically.

  • Calling a method in the backing bean when rendering a table

    I'm rendering a table that begins with :
    <h:dataTable value="#{showRooms.rooms}" var="rowRoom" ...
    There are several properties I'm displaying. Some are just displayed as they appear from the database like:
    <h:outputText value="#{rowRoom.roomNumber}"/>
    However, some I need to translate so they display a more meaningful message to the users. For example, status is stored 'A', or 'NA', but this should display 'Available' or 'Not Available'. To do this, I'm taking an idea I saw in another forum by providing a method to call and translate the text. For example:
    public String getDisplayedStatus(String status) {
    if (status.equals("A") {
    return "Available";
    } else {
    My problem is how can I invoke a method and pass in the current value of status for that row in the table. I think I need something like this:
    <h:outputText value="#{showRooms.getDisplayedStatus(#{rowRoom.roomStatus})"/>
    But that doesn't work. I can invoke the getDisplayedStatus method when passing in a hardcoded parameter, but it won't translate the value of both expressions(the method and the method param). How can I achieve this?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Yes. I've done that and it does work....sort of. It works as long as I refer to it as 'displayStatus'. It looks up the getDisplayStatus and returns a value. The problem is getting the current status value from the object in the List. For example, the 3rd row in the table has either 'A;' or 'NA' for status. I need to know this value in order to do my translation. The way I see it, I either need
    1.)a way to call a method on the backing bean and pass the value of status from the current row into the method.
    -or-
    2.)in getDisplayStatus, I need a way to access the current row's value, perhaps through an expression. This appears to be what you can do in the AbstractPageBean class that all backing beans inherit in Studio Creator. I've seen code in a getter like 'getValue(#{currentRow.status}'), but I don't know how that is done. I looked for the source to AbstractPageBean on the web but couldn't find it - maybe its not open-source.
    Anyway, please share if anyone has a solution. I'm sure this has been done before.
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • I have more songs than can fit on my ipod.  How do I add the most recent when I sync?

    I suppose sometime I will have to get a bigger IPOD, but I still love hwat I have but like to mix up the music.  I now have too many songs on my computer to load on my IPOD.  Is there any way to automatically load the most recently added tunes when I sync or do I have to manually deselect tunes I don't want to load?

  • My Macbook air (only 2 months old) has a black screen and I cannot see to get signed on, the keyboard seems to be on as I can see via having put on the Caps key which lights up and also the power cable when connected is at green how do I fix this?

    I have been faced with a Black screen this morning when I have gone to sign in/open my Macbook air this morning.  I can see that the keyboard seems to be on as the caps key when pressed is lighting up as is my charger cable link, however have noticed that the apple logo is not lit up.  Any thoughts?

    Try resetting SMC and NVRAP and then reboot.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    Try booting the Recovery Partition.  Power off, boot and then hold down the Command and R keys.  Is the screen still black?  If so it is not a software problem so take it in for diagnosis and repairs.  Make a Genius Bar reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country .
    If you are running Mavericks try upgrading to 10.9.2.  It has a fix for black screen problems.
