E72 - Phone loses contact info/ sms messages after...

Hi 
I switched from a win mo IPAQ to the E72 ..I absolutely love this device! 
The problem i am facing is that everytime I connect to the PC Suite i lose part or sometimes my entire inbox content. The first time i connected to the suite it wiped out all my email accounts. 2nd time it wiped out all my recently added contacts. I am unable to retrieve them... I just connected my phone to the suite right now and it wiped out part of my inbox.
Has anyone encountered such a problem? Please advice.
Thanks

Hi there,
I am a newby like you but I faced a similar problem with my Nokia E71. I cannot synchronise with my Outlook contacts but it sends me to the OVI one.
This forced me to look into the synchronise settings. If you go to Tools>Syncronise. Once you are in you should see the PC suite. Go to Options. Then you should see different settings. One thing that springs to mind is whether you have syncronisation both ways, i.e. PC Suite and phone update each other instead of one takes over the other.
One thing to bear in mind, as Nokia E72 is FP2 whilst E71 is FP I am not sure whether they share the same software.
Good luck and share your experience.

  • I just bought an iPhone 4s and synched it yesterday.  I backed up the old phone (a 3GS), then restored all that to the 4S.  It generally worked well, except it truncated all SMS messages after October 20.  Can I get the new messages on the new phone?

    Thanks for any help.

    Basics from the manual are restrt, reset, restore.
    Have you tried each of these?

  • Unable to send or receive contact info through message

    Hi, I am unable to send or receive contact info through message.How to solve this problem? thanks

    Business card/vCard is exchanged through MMS and not by SMS.
    Make sure your MMS is configured and activated and you have cellular data/3G ON while exchanging MMS.

    Hey @piyali, I wanted to inform you that your phone doesn't have a software to transfer that information. But for you to know when you transfer the messages to the computer it will just appear a regular notepad document, so basically, you could just copy the information from the text message into a notepad in your computer and you can keep those important memories for yourself.

  • Phone and Contacts APP not working after the upgrade 4.01 from 4.0

    Dear all
    after the upgrade to 4.01 my iphone stop to operate the phone and the contacts app
    when i open phone or contacts the app close(crash) after 1 sec.
    When i connect to the mac i have the following message from itunes:
    "iTunes could not sync to the iPhone"Christos" because contacts are being synced over-the-air."
    Trying to open and change the settings at: mail, contacts, calendar but also crash
    Please help
    Thanks for your support

    This happened to me after I upgraded to 4.0. While the iPhone update offers some great new features it has really done a number on some very basic functions and overall operation.
    I am no longer able to use the contacts app to place calls. I can pull up my contact list but when I select an individual contact, the phone seems to freeze for a second and then crashes. (It might be worth mentioning that I use Exchange to sync my contacts.) While the contacts are all on the phone, I can't access actual contact information for each individual.
    I'm also experiencing random freezes, touchscreen delays, etc.
    I can deal with some minor bugs but not being able to use your contacts to place calls is a huge problem.

  • My phone book contact info transfer double names on contacts that have only 1 number

    why are my contacts listed twice when i sync to my cars phonebook

    ONly way is to restore your phone as new.  As a temp fix, just add a fictious name to the deleted number, so that way it doesn't show up when you enter that contacts name in message.

  • HT4859 lost my contacts' info on iphone after i signing onto icloud

    Hi, I lost all of my contacts' info after signing onto icloud and backing up.  Now, contact list on my iphone is blank.  How can I get the info back onto my iphone without resetting?  Thanks

    If you backed up both devices - like you should always do when you update a device - any device - then the contacts should be in your backup - and you can restore from the backup. If you didn't backup - they may be gone.

  • 5800 deletes sms messages after self reboot

    My first taste of disgrace;
    I took a picture yesterday and imediatly sent it from the camera application via MMS.
    During the send process, the phone decided to reebot and lost its wallpaper and for my disgrace all of the messages!!!!
    They were stored in the memory card...
    After the reboot, the message store path was still pointing to the memory card, but it detected 0 messages...
    I tried switching back and forward from "phone memory" to "card memory" but still nothing....
    Were is the safety in having the messages stored in the memory card if the phone can easily wipe them out of existence???
    And I was liking this phone so much.....
    Regards,
    Joao Duarte

    ......it could be the memory card being faulty.......
    have either of you tried a different memory card?
    i find that memory cards are very "sensitive" so if you have been
    removing it and replacing it into the device a fault can occur......
    secondly try this and see what happens
    go to messages---->options------>settings---->other
    here you will find a few settings try configurating them to your lliking
    (save sent messages "yes" number of saved messages "999"
    MEMORY IN USE  "E:Memory Card") i think it may be a matter of the phone
    switching between where the messages are saved (phone memory or memory card)
    thus it appears as though messages have been deleted when in fact its just the LOCATION
    of where messages are saved.
    hope this helps.....

  • Receiving contact info via messaging

    I have a new 3GS and all seems well. My son has one also and I asked him to send me a contact through text messaging. He tried and no go. He can send me a text but not the contact. He can send them to my wife's 3GS. I have gone through everything to try and fix it but am coming up with nothing. Help!!

    Yes hers is and I got the solve. Apple support went through it and came up with a carrier issue. I called their support and they could not do it right away but did say that it is an issue on their end. I am awaiting the solve. They say 24-48 hours. They will text me to state all is well. When it is actually done I will come back and give my final piece so someone can use it for future reference. Happy New Year!!

  • How do I retrieve SMS messages after upgrade from iphone 4 to iphone 6

    I lost my iphone 4 and so upgraded to iphone 6,  8.1.1.  During the process, all my test messages were lost.  Can I retrieve them?

    Hello, thank you for your reply. My daughter backed up the 4 to itunes for me and then restored to the 4S from the backup on itunes, but it hasn't taken over my imessages, texts or my notes.
    Unfortunately, I am technically challenged, so I don't know why it hasn't done this and now I'm wondering if I try the backup again, will it then go over the new messages that have come in? Ideally, I would like to be able to retrieve the messages from it before I restore the 4 so then my son can then have it.

  • Macbook loses contact with OD server after wake

    So, as the title states, I have a macbook on the lan that is connected via airport to an OD master. Problem is when I wake it up from a sleep it can no longer connect to the server. If I go into Directory Utility it shows "trying to connect to server" which eventually fails. The only way to reintroduce it to the server is to either restart or delete and reconfigure the server in DU. So far I have not found an error in the log files on either the server or the macbook....

    Oh, if it were only that easy!
    Nope, double checked and it is set up correctly. However, I might be inclined to think it might be a bug with wireless connections... Not sure how the server could tell the difference but worth a thought.

  • Noticing a plain grey 'block' where keyboard should be after sms message or whatsapp message is sent

    Hi,
    I thought to raise this cause i'm going mad. Since upgrading to ios8- after i send a sms message, leave the app then go to somewhere else. When i go back to the message app (say to reply), i notice where the keyboard should be there is a grey plain block covering this. It shows for about 3 seconds then dissappears and reveals the keyboard. This also happens when sending whatsapp messages?
    Can this be resolved?

    Text only message (no — photo, voice message or contact info)
    Settings --> Messages --> MMS Messaging -->
    ON:
    Start a new message, send to multiple recipients, message is sent as MMS (note top of message window will say 'New Group MMS').
    OFF:
    Start a new message, send to multiple recipients, message is sent as SMS (note top of message window will say 'New Message').
    aapplee, have you tried starting a new message after turning off MMS, or are you using an existing message? Don't know if this makes a difference.

  • Contact info not showing in messages

    Since upgrading to IOS7 my ipad will not show contact info for messages. On my iphone the upgrade works fine.

    Hi, In such case, try to check the things below:
    1> Make sure all contacts are stored in unique memory : sim or phone memory (recommend phone memory)
    2> Try to avoid 1 contacts has few numbers and other case, similar or same names for fews contacts
    3> Add your country code into the normal number format, eg: 0123455678 --> saved as +60 12345678 (+60 is the country code for MY)
    4> Check the settings under Contacts folder: Contacts > Settings > Contact view or Display contacts > try to change Last name/ First name view option one by one

  • How do I copy SMS messages from phone to memory ca...

    After I change the option of saving the messages from phone memory to memory card on my E90, I don't see any of the messages stored on the previous choice in INBOX. This is ok, I understood this.. But.. How do I copy the messages from phone memory to memory card for example ? Reply pls..

    I think I kind of solved this issue.. Try doing this. Copy all files from memory card to a back-up folder in your PC, after connecting the phone to the PC via 'Data Transfer Mode', by clicking CTRL+A while in Memory Card in Windows Explorer. (Doing this, you will also copy the hidden files, if you haven't clicked the option to view hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer). Afterwards, format the memory card via phone, or simply CTRL+A + Delete from explorer to fully erase the microSD card. In phone, messages, in other settings, choose phone memory to store SMS messages, and then.. tell a friend to send you an SMS message, or simply send one to yourself. After receiving the message, go back to settings->Other, save sms messages to:, choose Memory Card, and the phone should ask you, whether to move or not the original messages. If you choose to move them, and NOT to save the original messages, entire messages from phone should move to the memory card. (If you would have chosen to save the original messages, the mesages that you move, would STILL BE in the phone memory.) If you want to do this again, to move them from memory card back to phone memory, change the memory to save sms messages (and if at first you have chosen NOT to save original messages, the phone should 'ask' you again for the same question.)
    And, btw, if you're probably curious.. (as I was ) where the messages were saved, in memory card, after the first time you copy the messages to memory card, check the memory card via 'Data Transfer' mode on your PC's Windows Explorer. I found them in the 'private' folder somewhere.. There should be a mail and mail2 folder there.. Also, the phone browsers, FExplorer, and Y-Browser won't be able to access the private folder. (For security reasons, bleah )
    Afterwards you can copy all software folders, images, music files, documents, etc. from the backed-up memory card folder you created at the first steps, since we all know E90 is a smart cutie, and will automatically detect all files, software, etc., after you copy-paste them.
    Cheers, hope this helps

    Rich, I'm having the same issue all of a sudden.  I can't update my contacts from my phone, and contacts info doesn't show up on my phone when they call.
