N95 calendar inaccessible

Hi all,

I'm having the following difficulty with my N95:

For some reason the calendar/organiser has suddenly stopped functioning; Whenever I press the button to access the calendar the screen flashes or 'refreshes' briefly but the calendar doesn't open.

Could this be a software/firmware problem?

Any help/advise that anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated!

Regards,

John.

Hi John.

Yes this is a software problem, and its kicking you out of the program when you press it.

You can update the software at home using the Nokia Software Updater or taking it to a Nokia Care Point.

You can find the nearest NCP to you at the Store Locator

I have the same problem on a 6131. I have used the Nokia Software updater. No change. Still cannot access the calendar.

Re: N95 calendar inaccessible

Whilst the answer is not actually in the Forum, the inspiration came from several of the articles. I did all the usual, re-installing phone software with Nokia Updater (which does not work on Vista at the moment – did it on a Windows 2000 machine), removing the battery overnight, tearing my hair out, and was going to do the hard reset mentioned in some postings (*#7370#) but decided to sleep on it, and woke up with a Eureka moment.

I backed up everything, except calendar which Nokia PC Suite could not do, but as I sync with Outlook anyway, not a problem.

Changed the year back one year to 2007 so that phone looking at year old appointments and et voila is if by magic, calendar back and working.

On Microsoft Outlook Looked at the appointments in the date range that I was previously synchronising, but found nothing untoward.

Reset date to today

Set Nokia PC Suite to synchronise, first a couple of days, then weeks, then months and finally a year and all synchronised OK.

So no idea what caused the glitch or why it subsequently OK, but can only assume that there was some conflict during one synchronisation that caused it all.

Anyway Calendar up and running and synchronising again. Thanks to those that suggested in other threads that there may have been a conflict or non acceptable symbol in an appointment that gave me the idea.

Sorry this long winded, but just wanted to make it clear what I had tried.

Re: N95 calendar inaccessible

I can confirm that the simple act of changing the date of my Nokia N95 back a year, visiting the calendar app, and then changing the date back to the current date fixed the issue I was having with the calendar app being inaccessible (as described by others above).

 

Alas I only got to this point after a Factory Reset (didn't work) and a firmware upgrade (didn't work).

 

So, THANK YOU for the suggestion.
