Using file manager and phone browser without email...

I have nokia 6021, PC suite version 6.5.12 and windows xp home SP2 and I connect the phone to PC via bluetooth.
I just want to be able to view my phone "contacts" (just names and phone numbers) on my PC, edit my "contacts" on the PC and then load them back to the phone, but I do not want to synch with my email program because that is full of other contacts stuff that I do not want to clutter the phone memory with.
The bluetooth connection seems to work fine, but......
When I set up PC suite it wanted me to synch with an email program, but I just by-passed that. However, I cannot see my contacts files on the PC using file manager and phone browser. Is the only way to do this to actually synch with another email program that I use purely for the phone contacts?

ok guys, problem solved.
I just do a firmware update on my phone, though the firmware version was the same one, yet it's now able to back it up..

File manager window remains focused in DW CS6

If I open the file manager window to display my hard drive and the server files, then click on a file in the hard drive display to edit it, it opens behind the file manager window and I cannot view it properly without moving the file manager window, or closing the file manager window. It used to be that when you click on a file like this it would take precedence. I am on a Mac if that makes a difference. Do not have this problem with previous versions of DW.

Hi:
I got this from Adobe:
The issue that you have mentioned will happen only if you have turned on "Application Frame". You can toggle the 'Application Frame' setting from menu item 'Window > Application Frame' in Dreamweaver.
If you turn off the 'Application Frame', the file will get the focus after opening it from Files Panel.
But full frame, fill my 7" screen is a nuisance. I don't want to have it that big every time I open a file. It is ridiculous. I need to have DW operating in one part of the screen while I bring up mail and web pages in the other, and then cut and paste from an email into a DW file page.

Managing Windows Phone's and Symantec Code Signing certificate

Hi,
We need to renew the code signing certificate from Symantec. However, we only use it to manage the Windows Phone devices and don't publish apps. Do we still need to spend $300 on renewing this cert? Can't I manage them for free like our iOS and Android devices?

You REQUIRE the Symantec Code Signing Certificate to manage Windows Phones via Windows Intune. This is a requirement of the device rather than the management solution.
You CAN manage Windows Phones without this cert using only Exchange active sync management in Intune. However this management is very basic and has no advanced features (basically the features provided by Exchange rather than Intune).

Cannot view certificate protected PDF file on Windows Phone device

I have a certificate protected PDF file that I need to view on my Windows Phone 8.1 device. I can install the certificate on it without any problem, but when trying to open the file with the official latest version of Adobe Reader app, it says something like 'some features in this file is not supported in this version of Adobe Reader' and won't open the file at all.

Need up transferring music files from windows phone

I have a zune as a MP3 player which my Mac reads as a windows phone via the windows phone app. There is an import button to import pictures and videos from it onto my computer (which hasn't worked anyway) however, I can't figure out how to transfer all of my music from my zune onto my Mac book. I realize there is the very long way of plugging the zune into a regular computer and transferring the data onto a USB/memory stick and then transferring onto my Mac. I'm just hoping that there is some possible way of just importing it straight from my zune onto my Mac if anyone can help.
Keep in mind, I know how to get music from my Mac onto my zune. It's the opposite that I'm having trouble with.
Thank you.

Hi John,
Welcome to the Mac Forums!
Sorry you are having problems. The "Priviliges" problem you are having has nothing to do with files being locked. It has to do with the way Mac OS tracks who is allowed to see what data on your computer. This way when you have multiple users logged onto your Mac, each user can only see what they are allowed to see and can't rummage through everyone elses files. Keeps things private from other users. Unfortunately, it can create complications when copying files.
I think the best solution for you is to set up your entire Windows iTunes library for "sharing." Then have your new Mac look for shared music on the wireless network. iTunes on the new Mac should then "see" all your Windows music. As long as you have the Mac set up as "authorized" in your iTunes account, you should be able to make copies or duplicates using iTunes of all the tracks in your library that are stored on your Mac hard drive.
Hopefully this will work for you. I have not tried it, but from my knowledge of iTunes, it should work. Keep us posted.
Cheers,

Level of local SQLCE/other DB support in windows phone 8.1/using linq to sql from dll?

I have had a mixed opinion for SQLCE support in windows phone 8/8.1. Is their still support for a local SQLCE or other database in windows phone 8.1? (A lot of different blog articles created their own handlers it appears and one used
an visual studio app called SQLmetal) I am hoping to at least figure out the libraries to use for Linq to SQL in windows phone 8.1 in order to access a local Database. I only need to retrieve data from a simple Database with one -
two tables and one of the tables has three fields.
I wish to access the local DB from a dll file even if I have to use Linq to SQL. The reason for this is to store data for a simple game while the app is running. However, I may need to send data to the database and would like to separate that
from the main application if possible. The only other question is: how do I add local database support to a dll file in windows phone 8.1? (This is my main objective but I need to know my database options first)

Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 apps can still use LINQ to SQL (System.Data.Linq) see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh202860(v=vs.105).aspx
For Windows Phone 8.1 [runtime] app you would need to use an external library like
SQLite
There is a jumpstart training talk on using SQLite in Windows Phone 8.1 apps here:
http://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Building-Apps-for-Windows-Phone-8-1/19
I'm not sure what you mean by: "...access the local DB from a dll file..." Do you mean you want the library used to access the database to be portable across
platforms?

I saw the first link and I think I have already been through some of that tutorial on channel 9 already.
I'm not sure what you mean by: "...access the local DB from a dll file..." Do you mean you want the library used to access the database to be portable across platforms?
This would be a yes. I need use it to submit an application to the store (I wish to have the data and business logic in the dll file while having the GUI separate). I am currently using the portable dll but if you think using another dll type would help
I will try that. I am a VB.NET programmer and so I can see where some programmers get their worries about SQLCE (It seems a lot of VB and VB.NET programmers like it from my time helping on the VB.NET forums second to SQL Server only).

Nevermind, I changed the dll type to "Silverlight" and I can use the System.Data.Linq reference at least.

Basically you are asking as how to port silverlight to Xaml (RT). Go one by one converting each API from silverlight to XAML, like IsolatedStorage isn't there in RT, so look for its alternative etc.

Using file manager to see files stored on the camera

I use an EOS 350D. With Windows XP, uisn File Manager (Windows Explorer) I could see the camera as a drive, and could see the list of image files on the camera, select and download them etc. However, using windows 7 I do not see the camera as a drive. Why is that? Is it because I have all the Canon software loaded? What can I do to have direct access to the files on the camera via File Manager. I don't use the Canon software for anything.

From Canon ...
"There is no driver for the OS Version you selected. The driver may be included in your OS or you may not need a driver."
This is true for Win 7 or XP.
"Change the camera’s USB connection mode from “PC” to “Print/PTP”.
This is required for all older cameras. But it does not require any Canon software since it is an in-camera setting,

Konqueror file management and auto-refresh

Hello all,
I am working with Arch and KDEmod and so far everything is pretty good. I do have one problem that is a bit annoying.
Konqueror file manager windows do not automatically refresh when viewing the URLs system:/home or system:/users/jay. The system:/home URL is what is opened when you click on the "Home" icon, so this makes this problem stand out.
Anyway, the problem can be reduced by doing the following:
1. Open Konqueror file browser and select "Home Folder" from the tree on left. This puts you at the URL system:/home. (Alternately, just click on the "Home" icon that gets set up in the kicker by KDEmod.)
2. In a terminal window create a file in your home directory. Note that the file does not show up in the Konqueror window.
3. Press F5 to refresh Konqueror. The newly created file now appears.
4. In a terminal window delete the file you just created. Again, note that the file does not disappear from the Konqueror window.
5. Press F5 to refresh Konqueror. The file now disappears.
The correct behavior is that when you create and delete the file, it shows and then disappears from the Konqueror window accordingly. Currently this does not work for the system:/home (Home Folder) or system:/users/jay (Users Folders/<user full name>) URLs. Interestingly enough, if I type the URL "/home/jay" into the Konqueror location bar in file management mode and then do the above steps, the auto-refresh works fine.
Does anyone have any clues as to why the refresh doesn't work for the system:/ URLs? Is this by design? What plugin actually provides the system:/ URL schema?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Jay

Hi LunAds,
I'm afraid you have just discovered how bad these features are implemented in Excel: they just don't work properly and I always advise against using them for any serious long-term solution.
If you do not have Excel services, then editing the document on the server (which would prevent lots of problems) is out of the question indeed.
Alternatives depend a lot on your needs.
For example, you could use sharepoint lists that the users can edit and then import those lists into Excel for reporting purposes.
But if this is relational data (parent-child tables, which is very often the case) then a database solution is probably the best route to take.

Nokia E73 Mode File Manager/Gallery Alternatives?

Not sure if I'm in the right section, but I'm assuming.
For the Nokia E73 Mode the Gallery is too chaotic and disorganized. The images are organized on "Date Taken" instead of alphabetical or folders.
Normally I resolve this issue by viewing images via the File Manager option phones have. The problem with the Nokia E73 Mode File Manager is the files are not displayed through a thumbnail and in order to view the photo I have to open the file (and "View" it). It is annoying because it takes too long.
Now my question is for an alternative. Is there an alternative File Manager for E73 Mode that displays the files in a Thumbnail list?

Oh wow, I'm a total phone noob. Yeah, there was totally multiple USB options in the settings on the phone. I selected Data Storage and now I'm in business. Thanks for the tip!

Write XmlDocument in Windows Phone

while writing the xml file in windows phone 8.1...this is the code I am using ..getting error(check image)..can anyone help..... <I don't want to use Xdocument Class for it>
XmlDocument dom = new XmlDocument();
             XmlElement x = dom.CreateElement("Transactions");
             dom.AppendChild(x);...
             Windows.Storage.StorageFolder sf =

            await dom.SaveToFileAsync(st);
            return true;

Hi ThePiyushSharma,
>>this is the code I am using ..getting error(check image)..
I have tested in your code, it works well in my side:
Please first try to make sure that the "LocalData" Folder is in your InstalledLocation or you will meet the exception if the code can not find your folder.
If the above can not help, please try to post your detailed error information in here.

Why there is no file manager in Windows phone

Why there is no file manager in Windows phone??? There should be a file manager provided through the update.

so it's mean IOS or Android or Symbian were much better than windowsphone because they have file manager.
to be honest without file manager we can't choose drive to install apps, and that was a disadvantage for lumia phone who have small internal memory. So you had to rich enough go for flagship phone to get satisfaction warranty.
for instance my lumia 720 who have 8 Gb internal which right now at Nokia care centre, i have to cautious when installing apps or game with great memory requrement, where's my water for example need 700 MB.
my we chat apps i don't know why cost me 296Mb memory, even i've already deleted chat history, temporary files etc.
