I'm not sure how to get data from phone to computer

I have the Desktop Manager and the phone hooked to the cable.
It seems to only have coices I don't want. I do not want is a full backup or restore or synchronoizing or sending anything to the phone.
I just want to do a few very basic things:
1) I want to copy pictures from my phone onto my computer, such that I can view them with standard Windows software.
2) I want to copy my address book from my phone onto my computer, such that I can view them with some standard Office app, doesn't matter which one.
3) I want to copy my calendar so I can view it with some standard Office app, doesn't matter which one.
How do I do those?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I can answer #1 I believe...
When I plug my BB 8830m into my computer it always pops up on my phone screen and asks "Do you want to turn on Mass Storage mode?" I answer yes and when I go to my Windows Explorer it shows a new drive called "Removable Disk (E". It may come up with (D depending on how many other drives you already have attached to your computer. From there I just click on E: drive and it lets me surf through my BB phones files. You can copy/move your photos, ringtones, docs, etc. to your computer this way.
Good luck!

Computer crashed. How to get data from phone back to computer?

Hey all. My hard drive just failed and was replaced by Apple. I didn't have everything backed up and am wondering if there is way to get my data back onto my new computer? Are there any applications that will do this yet? If I connect my phone to the new OS will it bring my contacts and calendar back? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately there aren't any software options to extract your info from the phone yet. But if your phone still has your calendar and address book data, a sync with iTunes should get it from the phone to the computer.
One suggestion...you might consider adding at least 1 contact and 1 calendar event into the Mac before syncing. I tried to sync my bookmarks one time with a Safari install that had zero bookmarks, and sure enough, the iPhone ended up having zero bookmarks after the sync. This may or may not be the case with iCal and Address Book, but adding an entry to each couldn't hurt just in case.
In the future, if you're not doing regular full backups of your Mac, at least export the address book and iCal data to a thumb drive or a zip file you can email yourself to a webmail account...takes 2 seconds once a week.

Iphone 4s coming friday, what is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across.

What is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across. If I do a restore as I have when previously from one iphone to another it has shown (in settings, usage) the cumulative usage from previous phones so all the hours of calls on all previous iphones will be displayed even though its brand new. Anyone know how I can get my notes (from standard iphone notes app) to my new iphone 4s without restoring from previous iphone 4. Thanks for any help offered.

First, if you haven't updated to iTunes 10.5, please update now as you will need it for the iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Once you're done installing iTunes 10.5, open it. Connect your iPhone to iTunes using the USB cable. Once your iPhone pops up right click on it. For example: an iPhone will appear and it will say "Ryan's iPhone."
Right click on it and select "Backup" from the dropdown menu. It will start backing up. This should backup your notes.
Please tell me if you have any problems with backing up.
Once you backup and get your iPhone 4S, you must follow these steps. If you don't follow these steps, you will not be able to get your notes on your new iPhone 4S.
Open up iTunes again then right click on your device (iPhone 4S). Once you do you will see a dropdown menu. It will say "Restore from Backup..." Select this and it'll ask for a backup, select it from the dropdown menu. For example "Ryan's iPhone - October 12, 2011." Pick that and it will restore to your backup. Do this when you get your iPhone 4S so you will not lose anything. Even though you're restoring, you're getting back, since you're getting the previous settings, notes, contacts, mail and other settings from your old iPhone. You'll still have Siri though! So, restore when you first get it. Also frequently backup your device, as it will be worth it. You can restore from a backup if something goes wrong or save your data for a future update.
Once you do that, you should have your notes on your new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Please tell me if you need any help.
I hoped I answered your questions and solved your problem!

Can anyone help me figure out how to sync my ipod with my purchased music? I have used several computer and at one point synced my ipod with a computer that only had about half of my music. My other computers are no longer working. Not sure how to get my purchased music back onto my ipod?

Hi kimcinma!
Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

How to send pictures from Phone to computer

I am having trouble getting pictures from phone to computer to make prints. Is there a way to directly load from phone to computer?
Skoot51

That's works but I have also used ES File Explorer and my home's wireless network to copy files from the phone to the shared My Documents folder on both of my computers. I usually employ this option when I'm too lazy to walk upstairs to get usb cord from OEM charger.

Not sure how to get the rest of my desired results

In my first query, I am getting hits for any entry where the
value of rideDistance is greater than 99
In the first part of the second query, I am grouping the hits
from the first query together by riderId and getting a count per
rider
*** THUS if there were five hits in the first query and the
riderId were: 1, 5, 1, 1, 2
then the count for riderId 1 would be 3, riderId 5 would be 1
and riderId 2 would be 1
Now based on the riderId, I need to query another table to
pull the name that matches the riderId. But I'm not sure how to do
this. I thought maybe I could put a second select inside the second
query, but I think this has to go in a WHERE but I am not using a
WHERE in the second query just a GROUP BY
Can somebody give me some suggestions on what I might try.

Life got in the way of me getting back to your answers
sooner. Thanks for all the help. I actually tried using a Join
first, but couldn't get the responses I wanted - I must have been
making an error as this time through it worked.
Now if I could ask for just a little more help. Current code
is below.
I'm taking my results and putting them into a pie chart.
Currently I get the "centuryCountByRider" as the value for
each pie slice (which is correct) and it shows the amount next to
each pie slice. I would like for it to keep the
"centuryCountByRider" as the amount (valueColumn) but show the name
of the person.
I realize I could put this in the popup box when you mouse
over each pie slice, but I really want the name shown next to each
slice. Also the exact name shown will be generated from a cfif -
cfif show name is m - show middleName, f - firstName, n - nickName.

How to get data from subsites list of SharePoint 2010 in ssrs

Hi,
Can someone help me on this issue.
I want to create a report using ssrs, I have some of the data in SQL and some of the data in sharepoint list.
First I need to go to SQL and get the data from the table which contains URL for the subsite in sharepoint.
after that I need to go to all the subsites and go to perticulat list in the subsites and get data from that list.
for example, their is a top level site "abc"
it contains sub site "123", "456","567", etc.. All this sub sites contain a list by name "Sample List", Now I need to go to that sub site list(Sample List) and get list-item column say "created By" which
is created on particular date.
in my report, I need to print the sub site "url/Title" which comes from SQL database and list-item column "Created By" of that sub site list "Sample List".
I tried using subreport inside a report by using "Microsoft SharePoint List" as a datasource, but when it comes to real time we don't know how many subsites will be created, so we can't create a datasource for each subsite site.
I guess we need to be using XML as a datasource, but how can we go to particular subsite in query while using XML, since all subsites have list with the same name ?
I appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Kishore

Hi Kishore,
SQL Server Reporting Services(SSRS) supports expression-based connection strings. This will help us to achieve the goal you mentioned in this case:
Create a new report
Create a Data Source in the report with the connection string like this:
http://server/_vti_bin/lists.asmx (We use static connection string instead of expression-based connection string now, as it is not supported to get fields based on expression-based connection string in design time. We will change it to be expression-based
connection string later)
Create the data set(as you have done using XML query language). Please use list name instead of GUID in the listName parameter.
Design the report(e.g. Add controls to the report)
Now, let's change the connection string to be expression-based. First, please add a parameter to the report, move this parameter to top. This parameter is used to store the sub site name.
Open the Data Source editor, set the connection string to be: ="http://server/" & Parameters!parameterCreatedInStep5.value & "_vti_bin/lists.asmx"
In the main report, pass the sub site name to the report we created above via the parameter created in step5
That is all.
Anyway, this is actually a SQL Server Reporting Service(SSRS) question. You can get better support on this question from:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sqlreportingservices/threads
For more information about Expression-Based connection string, please see:

If there is anything unclear, please feel free to ask.
