PC Suite vs Memory Card

So I am having a ridiculous time to try persuade PC Suite to find my external 8GB memory card in PC Suite mode. I can find the card in Mass Storage and Media Transfer no problem on my "PC" but those modes do not work with PC Suite's functions. Why do I want PC Suite to recognize my memory card? In order to use the video and audio conversion programs. Please help. I have tried resetting the phone several times etc. to no avail....

Hi mr_kobayashi
Are your "Messages" stored on phone memory or card memory, as on my N95 the memory card can't be accessed via PC Suite if the latter applies?

PC Suite doesn't show the messages in memory card

Hei,
Phone - 6210 Navigator
PC Suite - 7.1
Memory in use: Memory card
When I open the Communication Centre from PC Suite, it doesn't show the messages. In the left pane, number of messages in the folders is shown as zero. This happens if the memory is set to memory card.
On the other hand, if I set the memory to Phone memory, the messages are shown properly. Why is this happening and what's the solution?
When I tried to take a backup, all data, except messages, is backed up.
Few days back, I could access all the messages via PC Suite. It worked fine. But, now, there's some problem.
I've lots of messages in the memory card & I wanna move them to different folders. How else can I do it?

Hello,
I think I found the cause of the problem. There's some problem with the memory card.
I set the memory for Camera also to memory card and when I take a snap, something something happens. If I set the memory to phone memory, it works fine.
But, I can access the files/folders in the memory card both from the mobile & via PC Suite.
Now, my question is "How do I retrieve the messages from the memory card?"
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Why memory card files sent through PC suite cannot...

Any files I transferred onto the memory card through PC Suite and USB cable does not show up when I plug the memory card into my computer's card reader. The same happens vise versa. Why is that?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. Use File Transfer mode instead of PC Suite.
OR
2. Use the card reader to transfer files.
OR
3. Check with PC Suite File Manger that the files are indeed in the folder.
AND
- Wait until the files are copied. Just because Windows showed the files copied doesn't mean they've copied. You should see a PC Suite pop-up window showing that the files are actually being copied.
OR
4. Don't use PC Suite
640K Should be enough for everybody

Good day!!
Encountering the same problem here...
Here is the exact message by Windows Vista Ultimate:
ServiceLayer Module stopped working and was closed
A problem caused the application to stop working correctly.
Windows will notify you if a solution is available.
Can Nokia provide an explanation for this?
I cannot access the contents of my memory card and phone memory using the File Manager at PC Suite version 7.0, which, I believe, is the latest version since I just downloaded it a moment ago.
Any explanation from other users will also be highly appreciated...

Memory card sync on OVI Suite

Can someone please tell me how do I sync my messages and music from my memory card to the OVI Suite.
Thanks

For device slowing down you can take the following actions-
1. Clear the browser cache.
2. Move the content from the phone memory to the memory card.
3. Take a backup of all the messages using Nokia suite & delete the excess so that you can free up some memory. In future do not let the message count to go beyond 500 so the phone functions remain smooth. Please note that depending on the number of messages the backup & delete may take even hours.
4. Try using a theme that is smaller in size. The larger the theme size the slower the device becomes.
5. If still the problem persists you can reinstall the current firmware using Nokia Suite. But do take a complete back up of the phone or else you will lose all your data. Also if you've set a password on the memory card & do not remember it then do take a back up of card content also as after firmware reinstallation you will not be able to unlock the card without formatting it.
Please mark the post as solution if it solves your problem.

Save memory card password using backup of PC Suite...

Ok. Some time ago I set a password on the memory card of my Nokia XpressMusic 5310. Some months passed and I forgot the password
to it but the phone still has it so it's working without any issues.
Problem is I want to update the firmware on the phone because it is a bit outdated and PC Suite is showing me that new versions are available. If I update the firmware, the phone will LOSE the password to the memory card as it is deleted during the flash. I did a complete backup using PC Suite to my computer. Is the memory card password ALSO backed up to the computer or will I still need it after the flash?
In other words, after I update the phone, can I use the backup I made to restore it and restore the password it had for the memory card. Or is there any way for me to find this password and remove it before updating?
The phone is a S40 phone so the installing of filemanager programs and looking for the text file with the password does NOT work.
Thx.

Click on the discussions main page link right at the top of this page, then under mobile products click on the accessories link (right below the phones link where you posted this thread). At the top of the topics list (above the line) you'll see something about memory card passwords for all types of phones. Many people have posted links to software that can help you. I'm using my phone to reply here so I can't post the links for you.

Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue

Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue
Hi Dear Friends,
You might have experienced the "Memory card corrupted issue."
Don't panic! The solution is here!
Your memory card is just 'locked', it isn't 'corrupted'!
For sure, this post would be of great help to you, if:
• You have enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device.
• You have sent the remote lock message to your device and locked it remotely.
Finding the solution really took me a lot of time. I was inspired by various posts on the Discussion, and decided to find the official notes on the issue. So would like to thank those who shared their tips, and helped us solve this problem.
I'm using E66, (you might use something else), and would refer to E51's and E65's User guide so often.
Of course, I'm not going to explain the instructions, and recommend you to refer to your user guides when needed.
On the contrary, I'm going to explain what may not be mentioned in your user guides.
Let’s Begin
What Has Happened:
In short, you attempted to test the feature, your phone was locked, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you used the phone for a while, switched it off, powered it on, you were prompted the Lock code, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you attempted to view some stuff that was on your memory card, you didn't find it, you tried to run a program that was installed on your memory card, the program icon didn't open, you put the memory card in the card reader and connected it to PC, it was not detected, you went to Menu> Tools> Memory card> You saw "Memory card corrupted"!
Don't, don't select the Yes selection key if you got the caution message, "Memory Card corrupted, reformat it?" because your memory card isn't corrupted, it's simply being locked!
But you can't find the unlock memory card command in Menu> Tools> Memory card> Options.
So? What to DO?
1. (This step is optional) Disable the Remote lock feature.
(Refer to your user guides) and change Allow Remote Lock> to no.
Then, while the unit is on,
2. Press the power key briefly, and select Remove memory card.
3. Remove the memory card from the slot.
4. Press OK if prompted.
5. Reinsert the memory card in the slot.
6. Reopen Menu> Tools> Memory card.
Is your memory card detected? If yes!
7. Follow tips number 2 & 3 of What to Know section below.
Did you get "Password removed" message?
If no, be careful of the case of the first character.
If you had changed the Remote lock message many times, use the one that was practically sent to the device via text message.
. In case you had set a password on your memory card before, you may also attempt to unlock the locked memory using your own password, not the first eight characters of the remote lock message.
Step seven would make the memory card detectable to the connected card reader to the PC too.
8. The memory card is detected temporarily, but it is locked and the "memory card corrupted" issue reappears every time you switch off/on the phone, unless you successfully complete step seven.
What to Know?
Official User guide Tips:
1. Remote locking also locks your memory card. (E51 page100)
. Yes, the one mobile phone that sends your device the predefined remote locking message, receives the confirmation message in response, indicating, "Mobile telephone and memory card are locked". But it isn't written in E66's and E65's.
2. To unlock the memory card, select Menu> Tools> Memory> Options> Remove password, and "enter the remote locking message as the password". (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear, but the quoted part ("enter the remote locking message as the password") isn't written on my E66's User guide, and there's a vague precaution on E65's, (refer to number 4).
3. If the message is longer than 8 characters, the first 8 characters are used as the memory card password. (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear good E51, but I don't own you; I have E66 your little sister. I owe my memory card's survival to nice users on the Discussion.
4. The maximum number of characters allowed is 8. Using more than 8 characters could prevent unlocking the memory card and require reformatting it. If reformatting the memory card is required, all information on the card will be lost. (E65 page28)
. Quite interesting, but it contradicts what good E51 says in number three¡!
. And it contradicts my own experience of the issue (and some other users' on the Discussion) too, since my E66's memory card accepted the 'first eight characters' of the 'ten-character long’ remote lock message that I had previously used to remote lock it.
. The first three tips are quite important and shouldn't have been excluded from E66's and E65's user guides. I don't have the time to download and review all the user guides that support this feature, but at least I read some user manuals and also got the impression (from the posts on the discussion) that there had been not enough information on E66's, E65's, E71's, N96's, and some others.
You may like to do a simple search on Google:
"The first 8 characters are used as the memory card password" site:nokia.com
Since the content of the user guides on the server seem not be searchable for any reason, you won't find any official support result except those of the good users on the Discussions. And the 'Nokia Site Search" brings no result too. (At least on the date of this post).
¡ Terribly sorry for those who have selected Yes to the Reformat caution message. It wasn't your fault. But there's an idiom that says, sleep on it! "Think about it for a while before coming up with a decision".
But now that you have tested the feature and know its solution, don't be afraid, and enable the Remote lock feature again! God forbid, but it may be needed one day!
Yours,

Dear, I guess, / This article doesn't suit your case. / • You have not enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device. / • You have not locked your device remotely. / Because you don't know where the remote lock is and haven't played with its settings. / You need to explain what has happened. / The only thing we get is that your memory card doesn't open. / 1. your phone model, e.g., 5130. / 2. What did you do recently that might have caused this issue? / 3. What methods did you try to unlock it? / Use some of the tips provided above. (except number 1). / Yours

How to view hidden window file in a memory card?

I am connecting a memory card to a mac
But i cant view the hidden files in it
It is a window file
Can anyone help ?=)

Symbian^3 currently has no way of looking at stored messages in the memory card. If you would like to access them, load the memory card back to your old phone and sync them to your PC via Ovi suite where these messages can be read on the program. You can move these to the C6-01 via Ovi Suite should you desire to do so.

Moving files from Memory Card to Phone Memory on N...

Hi everyone
i have put 8 small trimmed down MP3 files onto my Nokia N95, they are to be used for certain people on my CONTACT list
i sent them from my PC via Bluetooth to the N95 with no problems, they were then saved onto the 2GB Memory card
how do i then move each MP3 from the memory card to the actual phone memory, i take its best to do this as it takes longer to access the MP3`s when they are on the memory card to be used as ringtones?
or should i just leave the MP3`s on the memory card?
also, how do i select an MP3 and then assign it to ALL the individual contacts that i need to in 1 go instead of opening each contact and individually adding an MP3 to each one?
i have forgotten how to do it!
i reset my phone last night with the holding down of the Green, * and 3 buttons
i did this because my phone kept restarting about 3 - 4 times per day by itself, i dont have any applications on my phone or anything, not sure if its safe to put too many things onto the N95 internal memory, i dont wany anymore restarts!!Message Edited by waynester on 05-May-200702:44 PM

First of all if size of your mp3 was a concer then you should have used the Music Manager in PC Suite to convert them to aac as they would be super small in size.
Next use File Manager to move from the card to the phone. Better to sva eringtones on the phone or you would lose the 'link' everytime you take your card out.
Two ways to set the ringtone for everyone. First would be to set it in your profile. And the other would be to set it to Groups... and the last one, each contact at a time.

Audio Manager showing less space on Memory Card th...

Hello,
I use a Nokia N70, and am trying to transfer music files to the memory card.
I have the "E" (memory card) option highlighted as the device to copy files to, however it will not let me transfer more than a few tracks before it comes up saying "No space left on phone"
At the bottom of the Audio Manager it says "Used 53299 KB Available: 8967 KB". Yet, it says in the File Manager application that the Memory card has: "Used Space 20.47Mb" "Free Space 40.34 Mb"
Why are the two conflicting? Does anyone have any ideas please?
Thanks,

Did you ever get an answer
This is exactly what I'm seeing with 6.83. Very frustrating.
"There is not enough space..."
It is reporting 1490.19/1913.94 used on a 2Gb card. In fact after some cleanup I am only using ~120Mb and have around 1800Mb free!
This is confirmed by
- the file browser in PC suite
- directly accessing the 2Gb card via the "memory card" mode on the N80 (makes card appears as a drive to windows)
This is under Vista x64
Changing the folder, rebooting phone, rebooting PC -- none of this seems to help

Memory card files not showing up

hi,
i have a 6230 and i use pc suite, but in mobile phone browser my memory card does not show up. all the other files are there, and the memory card works fine in the phone.
any ideas?

Hi,
If the above doesn't work, please find out what software version your phone has by typing *#0000# into the keypad. If it is an oldish one you might consider a SW upgrade.

Applications on Memory Card not working after Firm...

I have an N73 that I back up regularly, including the memory card.
My PC suite informed me that there was a newer version of firmware for my phone so I decided to upgrade.
I did a complete backup of my phone and card and then did the upgrade.
I then did a restore from the backup to get all my contact etc back again.
All applications that were loaded on my phone are working but none of the applications on the card will start.
Anyone got an ideas on how I can get them working again? Preferably without having to re-load as that will mean I will have to buy them again.

juz go to application manager. in it, u can see the applications u have installed previously are stating uninstalled. juz install them once again, n they will retrieve.

Theme on memory card for Nokia 5500

Hello!
I got a problem with the nokia 5500. On the memory card are two themes that I would like to use, but the size of the memory card is to little(64MB) for me to use it normally. The problem is that I can't move the themes from the memory card to the telephone memory on the phone, and when I check it in both PC Suite and Filexchange modus(not sure what it's called in english, but it's one of the three options you get when you insert the data-cable) I can't see any of the two that are on the memory card(unless they got some special name, they are onle called Theme 2 and 3 on the phone). What can I do to move them, or are they locked to the memory card?
Regards,
Thomas

is they default themses present on memory card???
If no then remove themses from memory card and reintsall them in phone memory from their source sis file///
