A new version of Nokia Maps is available for the N95. In addition a new version of the Nokia Map Loader is available. Unfortunately the Map Loader installs the .NET framework 3.0 on a Windows XP computer. Not sure what they were thinking.

It works perfectly fine on my N95.

Nokia’s support for the MAC platform has traditionally been pretty weak. However, with the release of the iPhone, we are seeing some good things from Nokia to counter the iPhones dominance. Here is a collection of stuff to make your N95 and your Mac work together:
Nokia MultiMedia Transfer: Transfer pictures, videos, music, and more between your compatible Nokia device and Mac. Integrates audio with iTunes and pictures with iPhoto. You can also set your N95 to be recognized as a Camera. One of the coolest features however is transfering you photos to iPhoto, and have iPhoto transfer back optimized versions of your photos to your phone, keeping more space available.

Nokia N95 iSync Plugin: Sync your iCal Calendar and Address Book with your phone. Also supports Entourage, however, to get this support you must sync Entourage with .Mac. This will enable Entourage to use iSync to transfer data to your phone.
In Entourage: Preferences > Sync Services > Check all that apply.
Auto Sync: Julian Schrader has created this lite app which will open iSync, Sync, and then close iSync. Works well. there is also some discussion on his blog around automatically running this app when your phone enters the Bluetooth range of your Mac. Very handy, however I have not tested as there are two scripts to make this happen and I don’t much about combining these scripts. Perhaps a reader here can compile the scripts into a nice little pack for the rest of us.
Julian states he uses a third party app to get this functionality, called “BluePhoneElite”. You need BluePhoneElite II for the N95, but it is currently Beta, requires a purchased unlock code, and N95 support is not fully functioning yet. Keep an eye out though as the feature set, once complete for the N95, is quite robust.
More Maps: I believe this is the default app on the N95, but if you don’t have it one your phone, get it here.Load all the maps you want, and you can upgrade to the Navigational Aid.

Hi! First post here, but hopefully a useful one. I’ve had a nightmare trying to change my ringtone – or more specifically my alarm tone but experienced the same problem with any profile and anything requiring a tone – ever since the first time setup, I seemed to have no tones in the phone – it showed the message “opening” and then, when it finished, the only options presented to me were to Download Sounds or switch the tones “Off”. I sent the phone away, it came back just the same. I downloaded some tones, it still didn’t find them and wouldn’t let me change my ringtone.
Then I took the microSD card out so I could send the phone back for replacement, thought I’d give it one more try – and it worked!
So, if you want to change your ringtone & the phone won’t let you, it seems the solution is to take out the SD memory card, change it, then pop it back in.
