6233 & PC Suite - Can't syncronise contact data

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
Phone: Nokia 6233
PC Suite: 6.81.13.0
Windows XP Service pack 2
Toshiba Pentium IV AV30 laptop
1) I connect the phone up using the USB cable, this has worked fine up until now.
2) The PC Suite registers the phone is connected so I click on "contacts".Up come contacts from the last save.
3) I click the icon "update contacts" and receive the message "phone & computer contacts are now being updated" along with an animation of the PC sending data to the phone. The connected phone wakes up and displays "syncronising data/sending 1-86"
4) Then, when the phone gets approximately half way through, the phone screen goes blank & all contacts disappear from the pc screen.
5)A message on the PC Suite pops up in the form of two warnings.
a)"the syncronisation has been terminated, PC Sync could not update the data to the mobile phone"
b)"PC Sync information: connection to mobile lost. Check connection and reset synchronisation"
6) Immediately after this message, the PC Suite recognises the phone again and I am back point number 2 (above)
I have tried the operation approx. 15 times using the USB cable and then switching to Infrared transfer and the result is exactly the same. I have uninstalled and re-installed PC Suite to see if this corrects the problem but it doesn't.
Please can someone out there help me, Thanks in advance

Thanks manta,I hope I didn't waste any of your time & thanks for your quick response.
I solved the problem as follows.
I had been busy taking pictures to save to my contacts in the 6233. I'd taken about 12 shots of familly & friends and this is where it all started. When you then syncronise the data, the volume of images tranfering to the PC takes (obviously) longer and gets 'timed out' whatever connection you use. My advice to anyone with the same problem is to sycronise phone to PC after only a few photos have been added as an image to individual contacts. My PC suite seems to work fine now.

If I restore & set up as new phone, can I save contact data?

I've been searching for a while but still can't find the information I'm looking for...
I have an iPhone3G on an O2-UK contract. When I first upgraded to iOS4, the MMS camera icon disappeared from the left of the message box, and I was unable to send or receive any picture messages.
Then, 2 weeks later, when I reset the network settings the Mobile (Cellular) Data Network option (under Settings > General> Network) completely disappeared leaving me utterly baffled. I wasn't too concerned about it before but now I need to send some photos and it's extremely annoying.
I've been to the local Apple Store and the O2 Store twice and neither of them were ultimately able to do anything about it. They changed the Mobile Data Network settings multiple times and instructed me to restore the phone also.
On my latest restore I completely erased all data from the phone and restored from a backup, but the problem was still there... I know it can't be a hardware problem because BETWEEN erasing the phone and restoring it from the backup the MMS icon and network options all reappeared.
My question is this: If, instead of restoring from the backup, I was to bite the bullet and set it up as a new phone, would I be able to keep all my contacts and other data? Is there a way to transfer my contacts temporarily to the SIM while I carry out the operation?
It's extremely annoying that such a simple operation is so difficult to find... Why are contacts, notes and calender events not available to view and edit in iTunes? I can't see any reason why Apple shouldn't include this obvious feature.

Thanks for the advice wjosten. I haven't actually done the set-up-as-new-phone thing yet so it's not too late for me to do what you've suggested. There are still some problems though...
1. It says everywhere that contacts and calendar events are supposed to be synched with Outlook, however apparently Windows 7 Starter (for netbooks) does not come with Outlook at all. Can I get it for free somewhere or download some other program?
2. I've tried synching the ccalendar events with gmail, but it doens't work at all.
3. The only luck I've had in this regard is that I've managed to save about half of my notes to gmail, but another stupid little annoying thing which is bothering me is how to save all those un-backed-up notes in the "On My iPhone" account into the backed-up gmail account without moving each individual note one-by-one.

Migrating Calendar and Contact Data from a PC to a Mac

When converting from PC to Mac, can calendar and contact data exported to a .PST file be opened in directly, successfully in the Outlook 2011 for the Mac?
Can anyone advise on how to export calendar and contact data from the PC, such that it can be opened or imported into iCal and Address Book respectively?
Many thanks.

PC Suite Contact Data Location?

My 6220 died while using PC Suite [PCS] for the first time on a new XP machine taking all my contacts with it. (I had not had a chance to do a content copy yet).
Where does PCS store / does it store the contacts of phones that have previously been used with it?
The reason I ask is I'm fairly certain I still have the hard drive from my previous desktop computer (also Windows XP) that was used with my phone.
I was hoping to take the data from the old drive, relocate it to my current PCS install and see if I can put the old data back on my new phone.
And input warmly welcomed!
Cheers, Antony.

Make sure to have a backup of each device, then use the backup to restore the phone after you have set it up as new device, explained in this article:

How can i sync contacts outlook 2010 with iphone 4 data

how can I get my data to update or swap on my phone and in outlook 2010. Contact data specifically.

Syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
If your Outlook address book includes contacts as well as your iPhone, you will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. The contacts between the two will be kept synchronized with following syncs of your iPhone with iTunes.

Sync with specific outlook contact data

I've notice awhen i try to sync Ovi contact with outlook contact it takes the default contacts data but my phone contact data has been created on a seperate contact data from my miling contact data.
This can be selected with PC suite but How do we choose specific contact data to sync with in Ovi?

Hi,
Please briefly explain your query so it will be easy for us to help you.
What type of email account do you use currently in Outlook (POP, IMAP, MAPI or Exchange)?
By "sync my outlook data with office365 outlook", do you mean migrate your existing email data into your new Office 365 email?
If this is the case, you can actually use the Import/Export feature in a desktop version of Outlook. It's just a two-step process:
If you're using Outlook 2010, click File>Options>Advanced>Export, there you can export your data.
After you export your data, then you can import it into your Office 365 email.
For more information, you can refer to this article:

Can i recover lost data from encrypted drive by Bitlocker

Hello Dears. I had encrypted my drive by Bitlocker in windows 7.
few days after my friend did quick format in my encrypted drive.
my 300 gb of data lost. and nothing saved
i remember unlock password.
how can i recover my data ??? i need my data
i tried drive recovering tools (advanced EFS data recovery, easeus . . ,) . but . . . it's encrypted and formatted drive.
can i undo quick format and decrypt ???
sorry my english is not good.
someone help me please.

BitLocker is not the cause of failed to recover files.
Format a drive will clear all data saved on the hard disk. Thus recovery formatted data will be a hard disk based technology but not related to operation system. There is no build-in data recovery feature in Windows operations. So we will needto use third party recovery tool or contact third party data recovery company for current issue.
As recovery missing data service will be expensive, we can also check emails and contact friends to see if that can help get a part of files back especially for photos, documents etc.

Can Not Remove "with" Data from Calendar Event Details

I currently have a Palm Tungsten|E2. For a short time I used to sync it with my work computer; this was before they replaced the computer (lease was up) with a new one where it was locked down and I could not reinstall the Palm desktop. Since then I have been syncing it with my home computer that runs MS Vista. Just recently I have noticed that when I create new Calendar events on my Palm, they all get a new "With:" data line (and a user from my old job) after sync'ing with my home computer. Selecting this "With:" entry brings me to a screen that allows me to select from a list of people I may "Done", "Reply", or "Reply All" to; although selecting either reply only causes a fatal error that requires a soft reset (button on back of machine). Looking at the event through the desktop software shows no data point so that it may be cleaned.
I would like to know why my desktop software is adding this person to a "With:" data point to all new entires I create on the Palm hardware, how do I turn it off and keep it from doing it in the future.
Steve

Are you sync'ing the new device to the same username in Palm Desktop as an older device?
If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name it something like Palm Desktop Data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on that page for the export procedure.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
Make sure you select all for the range in the export window.
With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard drive.
Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data that was changed to that folder and save again to the external media.
With this process you can always import the data back into Palm Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.
Looks like you may need to hard reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Next before you hotsync your data back over you will need to rename your backup folder, to do that go here;
XP
C:\program files\palm or palm one\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Vista
Start-->documents\Palm OS Desktop\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Then hotsync to your current hotsync name and all your contacts, calendar,
tasks, and memos will come back over.
Show file extensions for XP or Vista

If you can not view file extensions on your PC I would like you to open a
folder go to Tools-->Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.
Vista
Open control Panel go to Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.

How can i export contacts from one apple id to another apple id

I just got a new phone - all of the data from my old phone didnt get transferred because
I was using 2 separate apple ids - how can i export the data from the id i am no longer usIng
to the new id

Does the old phone have the old apple ID ?
If it does then sign out of the old iCloud account, Keep your info on your phone, sign in with new apple ID, then merge to cloud. Give it a few minutes. You should see the other contacts appear on your new phone via iCloud.

Two Apple IDs, Two Icloud accts, two contact data bases??

Hi all, I hope you might help me sort this mess out. Thanks in advance.
I have two Apple IDs - one of those ids is tied to iTunes and is my primary account, as it is linked to the Itunes store, my Iphone and Ipad. It has 5gb of which 4 is used for backups, etc. Aside from all my Iphone stuff, the data of importance is my contacts db that includes all my iphone contacts.
The other Apple ID was issued by Apple when I started to use MobileMe. It has a me.com address. When Apple moved to iCloud I got this account switched and also got 25gb of space that is good until Sept 2013. I have used about 2gb of space on that. The only data of importance on it is the contacts, and this has a mix of some Iphone contacts as well as contacts I added as I was using one of the macs.
It seems that I did not grasp the limitations of Icloud and did not notice that my macs - MBP and MBA were and are storing my contact data using different accounts. Both contacts db's are full of duplicates as well as there are approx 200+ contacts that are in one or the other contact db, but not both.
So, I think I might merge the two into one contact db, then stop using the me.com acct.
To get to this state I would presume that I should export the contacts from both accounts, then open up one of them in the contact app of my choice, then import the second export, and then do the clean up. Then I would upload the clean file back to my primary icloud acct.
By uploading a clean contact db that is corrected and duplicate free, how do I tell icloud to replace the db that is there with the one that I am uploading?
I have found nothing in tech articles, or discussions that suggest that the approach will work -- I am unsure that by uploading a clean contact db, I will not simply duplicate the names and addresses that are already there, along with adding the 200+ contacts that are not there.
Perhaps I delete the contact db from icloud - but again I see no information on that.

Then you should be able to just do the following:
On the Mac that is syncing contacts with the me.com iCloud account you are abandoning, open your contacts and export them as a vCard (File>Export>Export vCard). Attach this to an email and send it to yourself.
Open the email on your other Mac and double-click on the attachment to import the contacts. The contacts should be merged with the contacts already on this Mac, as well as to the iCloud account the Mac is syncing contacts with.
You can then clean up your duplicates by, for example, opening Address Book (Contacts) on your Mac, going to Card>Look for Duplicates, then merging any duplicates it finds.
You can then go to System Preferences>iCloud on the Mac that is syncing your me.com account, sign out of that account (which will delete any synced data), then sign into the iCloud account you are keeping and check the data you want to sync (which will sync the iCloud data to this Mac).

How Can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail?

How can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail? In other words, I want to keep all of my iPhone contact information intact and make AOL "mirror" it (and not wipe it out when I sync thru iTunes).

The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts with Windows, and with the Address Book or with the Entourage address book on a Mac.
If you aren't currently using one of the supported applications on your computer for contact info - the supported address book application on your computer is empty, before syncing contacts enter one contact in the supported application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data with the supported application on your computer, which you want to select.
After this, you can export the contacts from the supported application on your computer that is supported for import by your AOL online address book - if AOL includes such an option.
