Re: N97-sync with Ovi

update your phone with nokia software updater. but before doing so, you must have a backup of your phone's data ok. any thing else, we are there to assist you.

Re: N97-sync with Ovi

you have to have ovi send you a text message with settings, save that message. then go to connectivity under settings - sync i believe is there and select ovi and not pc suite. pc suite will connect via bluetooth. ovi won't. hence you need those setting send you to via textmsg.

I got the sms and I saved it like it said. and I when to connectivity and I tried to to change the setting and it is still not letting me change. I have 5 pages of contact that I typed in ovi.com and I don't want to type them agani manually on my phone :smileysad:.

 

Every time I trid to change the setting it tells me read only. I have done this today 2 already and nothing.

Re: N97-sync with Ovi

I have ovi.com under sync profile name. the proplem is under (server ID) pc suite = that don't let me change.

under (date bearer) bluetooth = that don't let me change.

and under (host address)pc suite= that don't let me change

 

So, that is why i'm here, looking for another way to be able to log in. I got wlan and flat date packet...so i'm ok with any connection.

Re: N97-sync with Ovi

hmmm i hear you but when i change the active profile in sync menu under options it changes for me automatically from bluetooth for pc suite to internet 

 

on the top right when you switch the active profile it tells you ovi suite/data bearer: internet (in my case as i have it set to net and not wifi)

that is why it is so strange that its happening this way in your case.

Re: N97-sync with Ovi

hmm i think that you might be able to connect your phone via  ovi suite through usb option and sync your contacts in that way. for contacts and messages also consider those options until ovi figures itself out and actually becomes stable and usable.

consider these options but try syncing ovi via usb to your phone first.

Re: N97-sync with Ovi

I syced all my contacts to Ovi from my N97 when i first got it. Yesterday i managed to delete all my contacts. No biigy i thought as i could just sync with ovi and get them back. So i go to sync on my phone press sync. But rather than download all the contacts from ovi, it uploads the empty phonebook from my phone to ovi and wipes them all from ovi. Luckily i had my numbers backed up on another sim card so have recovered them. But in future how do i download my stored contacts from the ovi site to my handset? The help pages on ovi dont mention it.
