How to Safely Switch Memory Cards without Reinstal...

dear fellow nokia fans, i own an E71 with a 4GB memory card. i recently bought a 8GB one and would like to use it without having to reinstall the whole system. are all my applications on card gonna work properly if i completey copy all files from the current 4GB card to the new 8GB one and start using it? will the phone system experience some problems if the total capacity of the card changes while the contents remain the same? thanks a lot!

Sorry about my large font. I have problems with my sight.
Please give me some KUDOS if my reply is of help for you. Thank you very much!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

They do. At least it worked in my case.
The rules of thumb:
1. Make sure all the files are selected on the source card by making the hidden and system files visible from windows file settings.
2. make sure that the target card is formatted the same way the source card is.
3. use xp not vista.
my sandisk 4 gb works with no problems.

    Well, it appears that your backup is corrupt, thus causing your issue. So, you'll have to restore as a new device, & not from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone:

  • How do you switch to streaming without deleting synched photos in AppleTV?

    I have synced my photos onto my AppleTV and use them as my screen saver. I'd like to keep these photos on my Apple TV and also use the stream function to listen to my music playlists and movies. When I switch the option to streaming everything is deleted from my Apple TV, including the photos that I use as the screensaver. How do you switch to streaming without deleting synched photos in the Apple TV?

    Firstly, the ctrl-click option says turn of syncing not turn on streaming, but I'm not at all sure this is really what you want to do.
    In itunes, select the tv from the device list, then in the main part of the iTunes window select the summary tab and ensure you have custom sync enabled and that 'show only synced items' is unchecked.
    Click sync from the bottom RH corner, your tv should now see all the content in itunes provided it is checked. See This.
    Now you can work your way through all the tabs in the main window and select/deselect any content you want/don't want to sync.

  • HOW TO FIX 5610XM Memory Card problem

    Without long introduction I just want to say how to do that, because it is annoying that you just can't use memory card
    So it's really simple, you have problem with memory card it self OR your back cover.
    Back cover has a small plastic thingy witch let's memory card to be readed, If it somehow fails to do it's job, then you have to do it by your self useing something like a isolated wire, to put it in that plastic things place, and then put the back cover on it.
    I finally can use my memory card so I am really happy, and I hope this will helps for you as well :]

    The newer video cards are plug and play.  The only thing that you have to do is install the latest video driver that comes on a DVD with the video card or from the manufacturer's website.
    There are two main things to consider when buying a video card:
    1. The length of the card.  It is important for the card to fit into the space provided and have good airflow.
    2. The wattage required to run the card properly.
    Because of the age of your computer, I believe that the power supply unit (PSU) is either 250W or 300W.  You can find this information by reading the label on it.  Most of the newer cards require at least 400W to run properly.
    One other concern for buying a new video card is, does it require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  I know that the last EVGA video card to work with a standard BIOS is the GT 640.
    Here is a guide that will help you understand how to replace a video card or other Expansion cards.
    If you are not comfortable with working on a computer it would be advisable to find a certified computer repair shop.  It will cost you more money, but will save possible problems.

  • How do i activate Memory card password?

    Hi. I have a nokia 5800 and have set a memory card password, but it never asks me to enter it when i access files! How do i set my phone to ask for a password to access my sensitive files?
    I am using firmware v 21.0.025 which i installed wirelessly from the updates section of my handset.
    Also, is the lock code onlyusable after the phone is idle for a preset period or can i use it to lock certain ares of the phone? the guides are VERY vague...
    Thanks in advance!

    The memory card password is not there to protect your data within the phone, it will only be requested if it is detected that the card has been inserted to a different device (or if your phone is reformated or reflashed).
    The phone autolock is only after a preset period, you can't normally activate it manually. There may be third-party applications that could offer the extra security features that you are looking for, but they are not built into the phone because the typical user doesn't require such a level of protection.

  • How to change the primary harddisk without reinstall

    Hi,
    I want to solve the following task:
    Change the primary SATA harddisk to an new SSD in Small Business Server 2003.
    What I did:
    I installed the SSD in to the system and made a software mirror. The two harddisk showed full synch.
    The problem:
    When I removed the original harddisk to let the mirrored start, it didn’t. It says: “Ntldr is missing”
    What I tried:
    I wanted to use fixboot; however Recovery console (nor from SBS neither from XP) didn’t recognize the partition fully. It recognized the Dynamic partition, but without letter and also didn’t find Windows installation.
    I am looking for an advice how I can transfer the OS to the new disk without reinstall.
    Thanks in advance
    Péter Fischer

    Server 2003 software mirror requires that you break the mirror if you wish to revert to a single disk.  Then, because the boot.ini refers to drive1/partition1, you will need to edit that.  The easiest way to test is to boot from a floppy with the
    boot.ini altered, while keeping your original drive safe from harm. 
    Can you confirm that you don't need to load storage drives unique to that mobo or controller.... I'm guessing not since you used software raid.
    How to make a boot floppy for Server 2003:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325879/en-us
    Having said all that, you will gain little by having the system partition on an SSD drive, and SBS 2003 is out of support in April, so if you haven't made plans to migrate to something newer you might want to start those plans soon.

  • How do I switch Itunes Libraries without losing my music?

    The majority of my music is on my old, slow computer and this is where I initially synced my Iphone 5s, but my primary computer (laptop) has some music and I would like to download music from this computer in the future. I can't get the music from my laptop to my Iphone without Itunes prompting a message that says that my music from the other computer will be deleted. I know that I can transfer the music to the other computer via usb external storage devices and this is what I plan to do now, but it is a pain and in the future I would like to be able to get music from my laptop. Is there any way to switch Itunes libraries without deleting my music? Any information would be appreciated.

    ugghh thats so obnoxious I dont know why Apple made it like this it used to be so easy to transfer music.. so does this mean that I'm going to have to delete al of my music from my old computer and then redownload it?

  • How do I install the card without the

    Hi, I have a Audigy 2 value sound card and Windows XP. Is there any way I can install the card without the CD? This computer's CD dri've does not work. Is there an application I can download that would make the sound card work?

    Hi
    Drivers:
    Download latest drivers and install them by running the ctzapxx.exe.
    Software:
    Downloadable full Audigy 2 Value -CD seems not to be so easy to find, but if you can find

    I do not know the Value model, but you can try install Audigy 2 or ZS software (see your

  • How can I switch between apps without going to home screen?

    Is there anyway to switch between apps with one tap? (ie. without going to home screen first). Kind of like a command-tab feature.

    Well, you can have one app that you can get to with a double push of the home button (set in settings which you want), but I think it's only your contacts list, or your ipod app. Still useful though.

  • How to reset the sound card without rebooting my Mac?

    Sometime when I plug/unplug my headphones from my MacBookPro I get no sound afterwards. When I adjust the volume, it doesn't show any error just no sound. I've checked the I/O settings as sound is a very important aspect of my profession. The solution found at the beginning was doing a PRAM reset and it worked fine. However, in the process my Mac needed rebooted. I then found that opening the Terminal and inserting the command
    sudo kill -9 `ps ax|grep 'coreaudio[a-z]' | awk '{print $1}'`
    works fine without restarting. I was working on a Max patch and was forced to close. So, My question is: Is there a way to solve this issue without restarting or having apps I'm working with forced to close? I am switching fairly normal, not hastily, between headphones and speakers when working with Ableton, Logic, Pro Tools and Max and relying on my Mac to be professional about it.

    Your iCloud password is your Apple ID and password. You must know it since you are posting here.
    Have you transfered your MMe account to iCloud? If not, open iCloud in system preferences and sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    If you have transfered it to iCloud, do this:
    Go to the iCloud icon in System Preferences and open it. Sign out of iCloud.
    Open Mail. If the iCloud or MMe account still exists in Mail's preferences under accounts, select the account and delete it. Then sign back into iCloud and choose Mail and any other applications in iCloud that you use. The Mail account should be put into Mail automatically.
    Signing out of iCloud should remove the account from Mail and signing back in should put it back. There is no manuel account creation by you when using Apple Mail application.
