With Nokia mfg closing down, anymore support for e...

Am using an N8 and very interested to get the N9 later, but just before purchase, read news about the last mfg closing down. Will there be anymore support for Nokia phones, and how long will the support last? Or, should we start switching to other brands?

Note also that the support provided by Nokia for a particular phonemodel does not require that there is a factory still manufacturing that model. In other words, spare parts can be provided, as well as software updates and support, without factories churning out new units.
And while Nokia has closed a couple of factories, the company still has serveral that are operational all over the world, and for which no plans for closing has been announced.

  • Airport problem with iMAC 27" and serious service support for indonesia

    Hi all,
    i can't seem to get any help from anywhere else. so i try to post it here.
    i tried to call the apple store (indonesia) which i bought this imac 27" from. got transfered 4 times and i had to explain it to them all over. in the end i got to speak to the technician and i asked whether i can get a replacement and they don't think it's the correct solution and leave me hanging here.
    the apple store is listed as an apple authorized service provider (AASP) or apple authorized distributor (AAD):
    iBox by Padang Digital Indonesia - Apple Authorised Service Provider
    Puri Imperium Office Plaza, (Belakang Menara Imperium)
    Jl. Kuningan Madya Kav. 5-6, Jakarta
    12980
    Tel: 62 21 8370-iBox (4269); 830 6763
    Fax: 62 21 830 6730
    Email: [email protected]
    Web: http://www.ibox.co.id
    i called the apple support on the apple.com (0018 03061 2009 for indonesia) today wednesday 19 may 2010, time 1:12pm indonesia local time (GMT +7) i didn't get the guy's name but i can tell he's Indian from the accent, i told him what the problem is, he told me to wait, i waited for 10 minutes and he hung up on me at 1:24pm. please check on the record, because i was told the whole conversation was recorded.
    so, let's go to the problem:
    i can't share my internet with airport built-in in my imac 27".
    I'm using ZTE usb hsdpa modem connected to the imac. (fyi, my friend is using the same exact modem and internet provider and don't have any problems with internet sharing using his macbook)
    i tried to share the internet through the airport express simply with these steps:
    1. open the system preferences, internet sharing,
    2. connection with "ZTE usb modem", and the box next to "Airport" is ticked
    3. turn on the internet sharing
    4. press start
    5. yes the firewall is off.
    and these are what i'm having right now:
    1. the airport symbol wont turn into an arrow
    2. when i open the network preferences, it says: AirPort is turned on but is not connected to a network. (color is orange not green)
    3. i searched the wireless network with my ipod touch and i found nothing
    4. if i try to "create a network" here's what it says "There was an error creating your computer-to-computer network."
    5. this are the details on the airport card:
    Software Versions:
    Menu Extra: 6.2 (620.24)
    configd plug-in: 6.2 (620.15.1)
    System Profiler: 6.0 (600.9)
    Network Preference: 6.2 (620.24)
    AirPort Utility: 5.5.1 (551.19)
    IO80211 Family: 3.1 (310.6)
    Interfaces:
    en1:
    Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x8F)
    Firmware Version: Atheros 9280: 2.1.9.5
    Locale: RoW
    Country Code:
    Supported PHY Modes: 802.11 a/b/g/n
    Supported Channels: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165
    Wake On Wireless: Supported
    Status: Not Associated
    and yes, i've updated all the airport software and i stick on the 10.6.2 os.
    It seems like people who has this latest imac 27" also having problems with the airport express. and they somehow got a replacement.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2261196&tstart=0&messageID=109 80828
    so, i really really appreciate if i can get help here.
    many thanks and best regards,
    irene

    If you have anything configured in System Preferences/Network/Airport then you have conflicts configured into the network. I suggest that you start from the beginning. Do not assume anything. Do not take any short cuts. Start fresh.
    Go to Sys Prefs/Sharing turn off Internet Sharing. Go to Sys Prefs/Network, highlight AirPort and press the - symbol below to remove the AirPort interface. Now press the + symbol and create a new AirPort Interface. In the new AirPort interface do not turn on AirPort. You should only select the box to show AirPort Status in the menu bar. Now press Apply.
    Go to Sys Prefs/Sharing and follow the steps 1 through 11 in my first post.
    In step 11 Sys Prefs should ask you to turn on AirPort. Turn it on. It should next ask you to start Internet Sharing. Start Internet Sharing.
    The AirPort Status in the menu bar should show AirPort is on and have an arrow pointing up. In the AirPort Status dropdown menu it should show AirPort is ON, Internet Sharing is ON and it should show the name of the Internet Sharing network that you created.

  • Problem with Signature tab drop down in Outlook for Mac 2011

    I am setting up Outlook 2011 on my mac and have run across a problem with the signatures that I have been unable to resolve.
    I have set up 2 signatures for my two different pop accounts and thought that if I defaulted them to their appropriate account they would automatically be seen in email when I had chosen the corresponding email account. I then discovered that it was not
    possible to do this in Outlook 2011 for Mac.
    So I selected NONE as the defaults for my two signatures, and thought I would be able to manually add the appropriate signature to each email as I compose or reply.  BUT NO!!!! THE PROBLEM LIES BELOW:
    The 2 signatures that I set up are visible in the drop down menu from the signature tab in an email, however they are greyed out and cannot be selected.  I have attempted selecting one of these signatures as the default, and whichever one
    I select dutifully appears when I compose a new email, but when I click on the drop down to change the signature, both are still greyed out.
    So effectively, I only have the option of one signature or none, despite being able to set up multiple signatures in my profile.
    Does anyone know why this is occurring and what the solution is?
    Thanking you in advance.

    Hi,
    Please remove the Signature and re-add it back to check whether the issue persists. We can follow the articles below to create signature in Outlook 2011 for Mac:
    How to create signature or customize it (add picture) in Outlook for Mac 2011

    Add a signature automatically to every message
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/mac-outlook-help/add-a-signature-automatically-to-every-message-HA102928243.aspx
    If the new created Signature is still greyed out in your Outlook, please restart the Outlook client in safe mode to confirm if the issue is caused by any third-party add-ins.
    If the issue persists in Outlook safe mode, I suggest you ask a question in Outlook for Mac forum for further troubleshooting:

  • Big Ask iCloud with Beta iWork closing down HELP!

    Hi All
    as you are probably aware iWork is being shut down.
    But i still don't understand from the email, where to exactly store my documents. As iworks beta is part of icloud system.
    where do you then store your documents in the cloud when this service is closed.
    thanks for your help
    if you can shed somelight on the situation.
    Thanks

    iCloud doesn't provide direct storage. iWork files can be uploaded to iCloud from your Mac provided you also have an iOS5 device: you can't re-download them until they've been edited on an iOS device. More details here:

  • Proper support for Fuji EXR Raw Files

    There is still no proper support for Fuji  EXR Raw files.  On any Fuji X-series camera, the in-camera raw processing, including specifying options always outputs a far superior image that Adobe Camera Raw 6.  I've been using an X100 for some time now, and have really gathered some great images with it. But Adobe Camera Raw fails miserably to understand how to process these files.
    This is more of a complaint and feature request than a question, because I already know the answer. Adobe has not worked close enough, or at all, with Fuji to develop a Raw processor for the EXR pixel layout.
    The EXR pixel arrangement offers new possibilities, especially the ability to take an HDR image of a moving subject, and without a tripod. The elimination of the low-pass filter allows for more sharpness, and finally the noise pattern is much more "film-like".
    I've been using Adobe Photoshop for processing images for years, but have no compelling reason to upgrade without a proper conversion for Fuji RAW files.
    Adobe: Please work with Fuji to bring world-class support for EXR Raw images.
    Thank you,
    William

    Good day!
    Adobe has not worked close enough, or at all, with Fuji to develop a Raw processor for the EXR pixel layout.
    There seems to be a reason why Adobe has to reverse engineer RAW formats – the camera manufacturers don’t want their customers to use Adobe (and other) software to process their RAW files. (If their proprietary software gets better results then that’s understandable, but for how long are they going to support their own software?)
    Now maybe Fuji is more cooperative than others, but do you know that for certain?
    I've been using Adobe Photoshop for processing images for years, but have no compelling reason to upgrade without a proper conversion for Fuji RAW files.
    If the new/improved features of Photoshop CS6 have no significance for the way you process, manage, edit and touch-up photographs feel free to stick with whatever version of Photoshop you use currently, but be aware that hardware/OS changes on your side may some day make that version inoperable on your set-up.
    Also the upgrade path has been cut down to one version, if I understand correctly.
    Anyway, this is a beginners Forum, feature requests might be better posted over at

  • Linksys support for VoIP adapters

    I would like to know how to get in touch with Linksys tech support, via e-mail for instance.
    I would like to report a bug and ask for help on a new product I just bought. There doesn't seem to be any tech e-mail I can write to, just this community forum which of course isn't endorsed by Linksys. I posted the following topics here:

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi prashantqta,
    Welcome to the Nokia discussion boards!
    Unfortunately the Nokia 7230 does not have support for VOIP. Do you currently have this device or are you looking for a device with VOIP?

  • E7 to have support for Lotus Notes?

    I read an online article about the E7. 
    It says that Nokia is working with IBM to create Lotus Domino support for Symbian 3. I'm not so pro with the terms but does that mean that I'd be able to sync my Lotus Notes calendar on my PC with my E7 via bluetooth using OviSuite etc (like it was working well with E90 and PC Suite)?
    If so then is there a schedule for this sw update?
    MODERATOR'S NOTE: This post has been edited. The link was removed because the website is not written in English.

    Add my support for a Lotus Notes sync.
    I would even be happy if it were via USB cable to a local replica of the database. Would that mean it needs to be intergrated into iTunes?

  • DirectTV lack of support for Apple TV channels

    Is there a common site to file a complaint with DirectTV over the lack of support for AppleTV channels?  Or do I have to go to each channels site?
    Thanks for any help!
    Regards,
    -Brian

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The Apple TV 1 is very much different than the later Apple TV is. For a start it doesn't support homesharing or airplay. It doesn't have many features of the later Apple TV is such as iTunes march, MLB, WSJ, photo stream and others. Additionally, it does not support re-downloading of TV shows and movies (US only).
    It's also plays lower resolution video only.

  • A2DP support for 8800

    I have a 8800 smartphone with software version V4.5.0.37 (platform 2.7.0.55).
    I bought a bluetooth stereo headset which is A2DP enabled. I am not able to use this with my mobile.
    Any support/suggestions?

    One notable missing capability is support for the A2DP Bluetooth profile for stereo headphones, although the device does support mono Bluetooth headphones for use with the phone. RIM says support for A2DP will be added in a future software update. Until that happens, to get the most out of your music, you'll need wired headphones with a relatively uncommon 2.5-mm headphone jack or to use an adapter with your regular wired headphones. All in all, the media capabilities feel like a half-hearted add-on to this device.

  • Multi language support for Adobe interactive form

    Hi ,
      I translated the adobe form in multi language in SE63, If i execute the form with passing LANGU(language) parameter, form supports for multi language.
    I created XML schema based interface and if a execute interactive form in Webdynpro, i am unable to pass launguage(LANGU) parameter.  because InteractiveForm element property does not have language key parameter.
    Apart from creating different language dependent forms, is there any alternate way we can pass the LANGU key parameter to Interactive Adobe form???

    Hi Thomas
    Let me share my few more investigation on the same, I chaged form each element property to login language.
    and translated form to other languages. If directly execute form in sfp with loging in different language i am getting right result. it means even no need to pass the LANGU parameter.
    But same thing if i execute from Webdynpro i am getting default 'EN' language form, even though i login in 'DE' language.

    Hi,
    As far as i know when you use Adobe forms in a WD4A application, language is your "web" connection language.
    You can have a look at standard class CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICE, it's used when generating an adobe forms from WD4A. , more particulary look at method DETERMINE_DOCPARAMS.

  • Support for Spotlight Comments Yet?

    One of the glaring problems with iPhoto is its lack of support for Spotlight. I took 2 months to meticulously add Spotlight comments to all of my archived photos, only to find that when I import them into iPhoto, I can no longer search by metadata. How idiotic was that? Not even a utility to import them! Did they finally fix this in iPhoto 6?

    Nope, just tried this and the Spotlight Comments are lost: Not attached to the copy that's made in the iPhoto Library, and not imported into any field in the photo's metadata.
    Spotlight Comments seems a bit of a last minute good idea that never took off to me. I wonder if it will be exploited in future releases or if it will quietly get stuck as borderline useful as it is now. I agree: Apple added this field to Get Info; you'd think they'd make use of the **** thing in their software!

  • Coldfusion support for Server 2012

    When are installers going to be made avaliable for Server 2012 for Cold Fusion?.
    Adobe have offically said that installers for windows 8 are 3-5  months away as of September 22nd, 2012 but we havent heard anything about Server 2012?
    Server 2012 was released to MSDN on the 4th of Sepetember. 4 Months seems a long time to wait with no word on installers or support for CF on Server 2012. Are you telling me Adobe doesnt have a MSDN account and only got access to Server 2012 at the same time as the generaly public?

    Unfortunately we are all paying the price for Oracle deferring the end of life of Java 6 from November to Feb. It sounded like Adobe were going roll all this stuff into their patch to add Java 7 support to CF9 and CF10, which they would have needed to get done by Nov. However now it seems they've slacked off and have left it to the last minute. I guess the good news is that this should all be done within the next month or so. The bad news is... it won't give us much chance to test the new release between when Adobe patch CF and before the Java 6 EOL.
