I've tried time and time again to try to get access to the repositories using the various guides on the internet. I simply cannot get access to these repositories as it gives me a 404 error when i try to search of updates.

FWIW, I get plenty of errors too...more so since I 'upgraded to PR1.2'....
Sometimes all the catalogs update OK, sometimes some of them update OK, and sometimes none of them update OK...
Very odd....

I had this problem with extras-devel and extras-testing since 1.2 as well. I fixed it by editing all of the repositories, changing the Distribution field from "fremantle-1.2" to just "fremantle" and everything worked again.
I guess they were supposed to give 1.2 some special treatment, probably because of the new Qt libraries, but apparently they never did get around to creating the fremantle-1.2 directory structure on the server.

I'm so confused, I still cannot access this. Am i really that dumb or did I do something wrong that I don't recognize? I've followed the step by step guide on how to enable and i keep getting errors i really want access to these apps.
i really want access to these apps.

I have had recent issues as well, as I've had to install two recent Extras-Devel apps using Terminal as they didn't appear in the list using App Manager: dropn900 and cloudgps.
