How to secure the phone contacts of Asha and other...

Phone contacts are very important assets. It is always advisable to take regular backup of important data for safety.
Here are the different methods to secure your contacts and solutions to solve common contacts problems.
1. Using your phone's sync-and-backup option
To backup the phone contacts using your phone,
go to settings, sync-and-backup, create backup. Mark the contacts and neccessary items you need for backup.
Note: Creating backup doesn't work without memory card.
2. Using Nokia suite
Install the latest version of Nokia suite from here.
Connect your phone to PC using data cable(set Nokia suite mode on phone) or via bluetooth.
Launch the Nokia Suite, open contacts and follow these:
2A. Using drag and drop
You can simply drag and drop the contacts to a folder of your computer as shown:
You can also drag and drop contacts from the PC folder back to Nokia suite.
2B. Using Backup/Restore option of Nokia Suite
To backup or restore using Nokia suite, go to tools-backup/restore.
2C. Using the sync option
You can sync your phone contacts to Nokia suite by default, as well as with Microsoft Outlook.
To sync your contacts to Outlook, open Nokia suite, go to sync-sync options and select Microsoft Outlook in contacts as shown:
After syncing, the contacts of your phone will be copied to both Nokia suite and Microsoft Outlook:
Note: Creating or deleting any contacts in any one of the locations like either phone or Nokia suite or Outlook,  updates the same changes in the remaining two places.
It is highly recommended to use drag and drop method to backup contacts instead of sync for simplicity.
3. Common problems with contacts and solutions
3A. Avoiding repeated contacts.
You might have copied all the phone conatcts to SIM card as a backup, but the contacts will be shown twice.
When you have similar contacts in both the SIM card as well as phone, you can change the settings such that either of the SIM contacts or phone contacts are only visible, for this, go to contacts-settings-memory in use and change it to either phone or SIM card.
3B. Deleting the either only SIM or phone contacts.
You can always delete either SIM or phone contacts. Go to contacts-delete all contacts and select either SIM card or phone.
3C. Deleting repeated contacts using PC.
Sometimes the contacts will be repeated in the phone memory itself. To fix this, drag and drop your contacts to a folder and delete all the contacts having parenthesis () as shown:
Now you can delete all the contacts of the phone and copy(drag and drop) the non repeated contacts from the PC back to phone.
4. Recovering the contacts from a corrupted backup file of the phone using PC
There are situations when restoring data fails due to corrupted backup file.
To solve this,
A. Connect the memory card to PC using a card reader.
B. Enable the hidden folders and extension in view or in the folder options, go to memory card/backup folder and copy the .NBF file to your PC.
C. Change the extension of the backup file from .NBF to .ZIP.
D. After renaming, the backup file can be extracted using any compression applications like WinRar or default ZIP manager.
E. The contacts of the backup file can be found at
\Backup000\predefhiddenfolder\backup\WIP\32\contacts.
These contact files can now be copied back to your phone using Nokia suite(using drag and drop method).

  • Do I need and how to secure the Unix/Linux agents authentication and communication to RMS?

    Hi everybody
    We have an environment including SCOM 2012 SP1, 10 windows server, 40 linux servers and 10 HP-UX servers. all of them are joined a trusted domain. I know the authentication method between windows agents and management server is kerberos. but not for linux and
    HP-UX servers.
    Now I want to secure the Unix/Linux agents authentication and communication to RMS. some questions:
    1- how much secure and credible is current authentication method? and in a high secure environment can I trust SCOM self signed Certificates?
    2- Considering this point that Unix/linux computers are joined to active directory domain and are using Kerberos to authenticate, can I use this
    authentication method between RMS and linux Agents? 
    3- if I make a decision to use certificates should I use gateway server? (considering all servers and RMS are in same trusted domain)
    any other suggestion?
    Thanks in advance

  • We have 2 iphone 4s which have just been updated with IOS5 and whilst setting up icloud the phone contacts were merged and now i have lost my phone contacts on first iphone 4 which have been replaced with phone contacts from my second iphone 4. help?

    We have two Iphone 4 handsets. I updated first handset with IOS5 and activated Icloud with my existing Itunes account details - no problems. I then did the same on the second handset and instead of setting up a different Icloud account for the second hanset I mistakenly used the same details as on the first handset and merged the contacts thinking it would add all contacts to both handsets but it instead replaced contacts from first handset with those from the second handset.
    How do I get back my contacts from the first hanset?
    I read somewhere Icloud saves the last 3 backups which suggests all my contacts that have disappeared are somewhere but how do i find them ???
    Help ???

    Here's how to do it.
    1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
    2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
    3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts  and etc.

  • How to read the BDB log ... and other questions

    I am using a bdb database interface in the application openldap. When the bdb database there is established it creates, in addition to the data storage diles, a log file (log.0000000001). "file log.0000000001" reports that to be a binary file. How does one read that log?
    I have asked this question on the openldap forum and was advised it can be read using tools provided by Oracle to support Berkeley DB, and was furhter advised to go the the Oracle Berkeley DB site. Well, I have done that ... looked around for evidence of any such "tools", but have found nothing.
    Also, was advised there (in the openldap forum) that having that log file in the same directory with the data files is not a good idea, that it should be on a different spindle for performance purposes. I have looked at the BDB reference manual on line here but find no configuration options to move that log file to a different location.
    Help? Thanks.

    Hi Robert,
    The information about setting log directories can be found here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_c/env_set_lg_dir.html
    General information about log files that you may want to read about:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/gsg_txn/C/index.html
    You can use db_printlog to display the log files:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/utility/db_printlog.html
    The above link will also point you to a place to review the output. The db_printlog utility should be installed as part of your distribution.

  • How Good Can The MacBook Pro Play Minecraft and other games like assassins creed?

    Please Answer!

    You shouldn't have any problem running Minecraft; It's Java based and will run on most platforms. I'm running Minecraft without a hitch.
    Assasins Creed? Hmm, depending on your hardware spec i shouldn't see you having a problem.
    I'm running on the 2013 15" Retina, with dedicated graphics chip though; However the Activity Monitor shows that it is using the Iris chipset to run Minecraft.
    Hope that helps.

  • The passcode lock code at the iPhone 4 was broken into by a program from Internet. ( By connecting the phone to a PC that program tells the passcode) Does someone knows how to prevent unauthorized opening of iPhone? How to secure the passcode ?

    My daughter has an iPhone 4 secured with passcode lock. A visitor in their house took her unattended iPhone, connected to the PC, from a certain program got her pascode and did open her phone to go through her private messages. Does someone knows how to prevent this? How to secure the Phone from unauthorized opening?
    Thanks in advance for all suggestions!!!

    Hi igmusla,
    It seems someone has stolen your daughters phone there is an application called FindMyiPhone if she had location services on and the thief hasn't disabled it you can possibly track the phone down. Sadly you cannot stop the thief from gaining access to her phone and personal information. Please report your phone stolen to your local police station and call Apple aswell, they can possibly put a lock on your phone aswell as put it into a carrier block which prevents the thief from calling anyone or putting a new sim card in it.

    Hi Gazpan,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend using the steps in this article to back up your iPhone if possible:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    You may also find this advice helpful for your situation:
    What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
    If you no longer have your iOS device
    If you're using iCloud and Find My iPhone on the device, you can erase the device remotely and remove it from your account by signing in to icloud.com/find, selecting the device, and clicking Erase. When the device has been erased, click Remove from Account.
    If you're unable to complete either of the above steps, you should change your Apple ID password. Changing your password won't remove any personal information that is cached on the device, but it will make sure that the new owner can't delete your information from iCloud.
    Cheers,
    Jeremy

    how on earth do you contact adobe - i lost my serial number before registering my standalone software...the phone service is offshore and not very helpful - the chat (i thought it was realtime) has been slow - if i understand, you need your proof of purchase and they will issue a serial number

    To help address performance issues the Identi-e web site is currently down for maintenance.  If you are trying to redeem a product code to obtain your serial number for the Student & Teacher edition of our software you will currently be unable to do so. We would recommend installing the software in trial mode for the moment until the maintenance period is complete.

    I just recently synchronized my contacts using outlook express, and I want to be able to view the phone contacts on the computer, how could I do that? I can't restore the phone then back it up on my computer because I'm on using windows XP and I cannot update my iTunes and thus I can't synchronize my phone back so I lost all my important work contacts and I'm just wondering if I can somehow access it on the computer

    You would open Outlook Express on your PC...

  • Does anyone know how to upload email contacts on my iPhone from iTunes without loosing the phone contacts previously transfered from my older phone??

    Does anyone know how to upload email contacts on my iPhone from iTunes without loosing the phone contacts previously transfered from my older phone??

    Good Afternoon irish357,
    I know the importance of saving and updating your contacts. What type of phone do you have? If you are using Backup Assistant, you have the ability to sync the contacts between your laptop and phone. You will also be able to see if all your contacts are stored on the online portion of the application versus the phone itself. The contacts should be the same for both online and the phone.
    I have attached a link below for your reference.

    I hope this information is helpful in resolving your concerns.

  • A friend created 3 accounts on his iPhone 5 but forgot the passwords. He can't reset the password as yahoo address is no longer valid. Erasing the phone doesn't solve the issue. How to register the phone with Apple?

    A computer illiterate friend created 3 accounts on his iPhone 5 but forgot the passwords. He can't reset the password as his yahoo address is no longer valid. Erasing the phone doesn't solve the issue as the Apple server identifies the hardware as registered. How to register the phone with Apple?
    I helped him create a new email address and new iCloud account on my Mac but when we try to register the phone with Apple it says: Maximim accounts limit reached for this device. How can he register the phone? I read different threads and found out that only Apple care can do that. We're in Romania and don't know where to call. Any suggestions on how we fix this?

    When I checked the support site for Romania, you apparently don't have an Apple Care contact center.  You "may" try calling the US Apple care number to verify the account and have the password reset sent to a different email address.  800-694-7466

  • How to show only phone contacts on Nokia 1650

    I bought Nokia 1650 yesterday and have been trying figure out how I can have only contacts in the phone memory to show in contact list view.
    Presently it shows both SIM and phone contacts. In my other phone I have opportunity of deciding on which one I want shown.
    Is this possible in this model?

    the interpretation of selection of memory is different in 1650. here the selection is applied to the new contacts which are saved in the phone book. if you have selected the phone memory and you are adding new contacts, those contacts will be saved in phone memory and not in sim memory. this selection of memory is no where related to display behaviour of phone book.

  • N my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?

    Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue.... 
    so yes,  the solution was to  each log  into the mac separately.
    i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id)   - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
    but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -
