Play WMA And WMV On Your Nokia Phone

By Ian Bell March 14, 2005

The multimedia demonstration can be seen — and heard — for the first time at the CTIA show.

PacketVideo’s featured demonstration closely follows the landmark announcement made by Nokia and Microsoft less than 30 days ago at 3GSM World Congress in Cannes. The two companies announced collaboration on digital media formats, including support for Windows Media Audio and Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) on music-oriented Nokia handsets, plus support for the MPEG Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) family of codecs. PacketVideo is demonstrating not only Windows Media Audio, but Windows Media Video on Nokia 6680 and 6630 phones.

The demo will include Nokia 6680 and 6630 phones powered by PacketVideo, playing Windows Media audio and video at 15 frames per second with stereo sound. Viewers can experience the same high-quality video as seen on Verizon’s PacketVideo-powered V CAST launched last month, which also features Windows Media content.

How to use Apple Pay with your iPhone, Apple Watch, or Mac

Apple Pay is one of Apple's features designed to make your life easier. The wallet-like app can be used just about anywhere except Walmart, and reduces the burden of needing to carry around payments cards, gift cards, loyalty cards, and even coupons with you wherever you go.

Apple Pay works on all of the best iPhones and iOS devices and, when fully set up, is relatively seamless to use. But, if you're new to the software, it can be somewhat confusing to use. Or, when learning how to set up Apple Pay, you may wonder if you've missed some extra features that could boost its functionality even more.

How to clear the cache on your iPhone

iPhone Home screen and apps

Even though you can offload a great deal of what's stored on your iPhone to iCloud and other services like Google Photos, there are still many things that need to be kept on your iPhone, such as the apps you use every day.

Apple has designed iOS to do the best it can at managing the space on your iPhone behind the scenes to ensure you always have room to take selfies, download songs, and otherwise use your device normally. But running out of space is still possible, especially if you've opted for an iPhone with only 64GB or 128GB of storage (or you simply prefer to keep everything on your device rather than using cloud storage).
