Using Nokia Map Loader
Nokia Map Loader is a PC application that allows yous to 
download maps to your Nokia E90 Communicator. This will 
save you costs on data transfer and allow you to download 
maps for whole countries or areas in a single operation.
Nokia Map Loader will download maps from a Map server, 
through PC to one of the following:
• A memory card connected to your Nokia E90 
Communicator via USB in data transfer mode.
• A memory card plugged into a PC via a memory card 
reader.
The Map Loader downloads and caches the list of available 
maps from the map server each time you start the 
application.
During the startup the application looks for a memory card 
that used with the Nokia Maps application before.
The Map Loader identifies a compatible memory card by 
searching for a cookie during the startup. The cookie is a 
file written by the maps application onto the memory card. 
The cookie contains information like size of the memory 
card, path to the map data on the memory card.
The Map Loader will only download a map of an entire 
country if the file size of the map is smaller than 60 MB. 
Maps larger than that will be split up into smaller regions.
PC requirements
Nokia Map Loader requires the following applications and 
hardware to be available on the PC:
• Windows XP operating system.
Support for Windows Vista will be communicated 
later.
• Microsoft .NET-Framework 3.0 installed. This will be 
installed by the Map Loader if necessary.
• At least 800 x 600 screen resolution.
• An Internet connection for downloading map data.
Note: You cannot choose the language of the 
user interface. The installer will identify the 
language of your Windows operating system. 
If the Windows operating system language is 
not supported by the Map Loader, the 
application will be installed with the English 
user interface.
