N80 PC Suite wont backup phone (connection lost)

After i received my phone and played with it a bit i installed the Nokia PC Suite and made a backup successfully
Now after a couple of weeks use i thought it would be a good idea to make an up-to-date backup of the phone, however now when i try and backup the phone contents it gets to 1% and says "Connection to phone lost. Reconnect and try again"
Now it works fine if i try and backup only the memory card, but wont backup the phone contents
I've tried it on another PC and it has the same problem. I've tried re-installing PC Suite from the CD and the web, updating to the latest version, re-installing N80 cable drivers etc
Any ideas why it no longer wants to work?
N80 Generic v4.0623.0.42, N80 Orange v4.0623.0.41, 6288 Generic v5.92, SE K750i

Hi cracker1979,
I think its a good idea to try out a later version and/or log a call to Nokia on this.
In the mean time, as a workaround (but not as the eventual solution), you may want to backup you phone content to your miniSD at Menu, Tools, Memory card, Options & Backup phone mem.
Cheers. ^_^;

PC Suite wont backup !! 6680

Have just upgraded my 6680 to the latest firmware.
Using PC suite, no problems at all. However when I went to backup to restore my original settings it said that it had not completed and to do it again, now when I click the backup icon it ignores me and just sits there but does not run the backup program. Am using a usb cable which worked fine on the dowload and installed the software fine on the phone.
Any ideas folks would be appreciated.
Regards Cliff

Open PC Suite
Open Backup
Then connect phone and press restore.
Describe in detail how if fails and what error messages do you get.
Also use the Windows Explorer to locate the folder
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Nokia\ContentCopier
to see if you can find your backupfile from there. Check also the size of the backup file.

Time Machine wont backup

I bought an external hard drive and put files from my old computer on it before I bought my iMac. Now I want to use it for backing up my iMac but Time Machine wont backup to it without erasing the contents. Is there a way around this? Or will I have to buy a new EHD? Or is there a way to backup to cyberspace?
Thanks

The drive is probably set up with the MBR (Master Boot Record) partition map, that Windoze uses. To use it for TM you must completely reformat it, which will erase it. If you have enough space (or can borrow another external temporarily), you can copy the data off, reformat it, then copy the data back.
TM works best with it's own, exclusive space, so you should partition the drive anyway. If you're going to use the other data with a PC, make the other partition MS-DOS (FAT).

Re: iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer

Did you ever figure this out? I followed these instructions and it worked! May have had something to do with the old MobileMe program becoming obsolete. After you click "Finder", then "Go", then hold down "option" button, then click "library" folder, then follow folders as listed.   I also deleted the MobileMeSyncClient folder (found in the same location) since it is no longer in use either.

this works...
You   need to delete the MobilSync backup folder. I have a Mac. Went to   /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup and deleted the Backup   folder.
to   find your "library" folder you need to open "finder" then go to the top tool bar menu and open "go" then hold down the "option" button and   "library will appear in the "finder " menu on the left hand side...   cheers

My iPad wont backup to icloud

My iPad wont backup to icloud

Sync your notes to your iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud and turning Notes on. Then check icloud.com to confirm that your notes appear there. If they don't, your notes may belong to a non-iCloud account. Open the Notes app and tap Accounts, then check to see if the notes belong to the iCloud account. If they don't, you'll have to open them one by one and copy/paste the text into new notes created in the iCloud account in order to get them in iCloud.

Howdy okkuenlilli,
I suggest this article we have named iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992.
General troubleshooting
General information
iCloud Backup requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet.
Automatic backups occur when you've plugged in your iOS device, locked the screen, and have connected it to Wi-Fi.
You can manually start a backup by tapping Back Up Now in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup (requires a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet).
iCloud Backup will provide helpful information and status messages related to backups at the bottom ofSettings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
If automatic backups don't work as expected, test to see what happens when you start a manual backup by tapping Back Up Now at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
Backups and restores both take time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your data and the speed of your network, you may need to give more time than you expected to a backup or restore.
Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free space available on your iOS device before you back up. If you have no space available on your device, iCloud Backup can fail in some cases. You can verify how much free space you have available on your iOS device in Settings > General > About.
SettingsiCloud Backup settings are controlled on a per-device basis from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
To view Storage & Backup settings:
Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
Tap your device's name. From here you can:
View the size of your backups and see the storage used by each app.
Enable or disable Backup for each app.
Delete Backups.
Buy more storage.
If you're out of iCloud Storage space, you can apply several solutions:
Exclude Camera Roll and other large data from iCloud backups of your device by going to iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and choosing your device.
Remove some of the larger files on your device, such as large audio or video files, from your Camera Roll in order make more space.
Remove existing Backups.
Purchase more storage.
For more information about managing and using the Storage & Backup settings, see this article.
If an issue persists and you are not able to resolve it using the methods discussed in this article, contact iCloud Support for additional assistance.
If you have a specific error message, there is a section within the article to look that up.
All the very best,
Sterling

IPod wont backup, corrupt or not compatiable

sorry everyone, I thought I had this wrapped up. I found the folder they were hidden however, my ipod is still not recognizing where the backup folder is and I keep getting the same message:
iPod wont backup, corrupt or not compatiable
How do I get my ipod and backup folder to link up?
Thank you

What happens if you remov the backup files and then try to sync/backup?
The message is saying that the backup is mpt compatible with the iPod and one reason is that the backup is corrupted.
Just what are you try to do?

Pc suite wont send or load messages

I have a nokia n70 with all the latest updates but for some reason when i connect the n70 up to the laptop and want to send messages through nokia suite it wont work. EVERY time it just says "Failed to send the message". It also doesnt load messages in my inbox either. Please help me.

I have exactly the same problem after upgrading via the "Update Phone Software" icon on the Nokia PC Suite interface.
Sending and loading of messages worked perfectly before the upgrade. Now I can not do either. Very Frustrating.
I previously had version 7.1.40.6 which which worked fine and I have now re-installed it after removing the upgraded version using: Nokia_PC_Suite_Cleaner_7_1_1.exe.
But the problem remains. Nokia Support please advise how to resolve this issue and get my current version (7.1.40.6) of Nokia PC Suite working again.

PC suite: install/backup to drive other than C

Hello,
PC Suite 6.85
Windows XP SP 2
USB Cable
My question(s):
- Is it possible to install the Pc Suite softwares to a drive different from my C:\ drive? I have hardly any space left on C:\, but gigs and gigs free on D:\.
- Assuming the answer to the above question is "no", how can i backup my phone data to a folder on my D:\ drive. Note that i mean a **full** backup of phone and memory card using the "Content Copier" tool in the PC Suite, **not** the usb data transfer which is limited to phone's E:\ drive.
Regards,
/t

This is my problem too, using the Backup Feature from PC Suite.
Did anyone solved this problem?
Thank You.

###IF YOU UPDATE TO WINDOWS XP SP3 PC SUITE WONT W...

dont update your computer if you want that pc suite works!!!
i just updated my computer to service pack2 to service pack3 XD,but when i tried to connect my phone (Nokia N70)to computer it said that problem with installing.i reinstalled the pcsuite and tried again but it still didnt work!
yhen i get to the nokias web page i discovered that pc suite needs service pack2!!! i dont like to `update` my pc
back to sp2 beause now its working much faster!!
so my Question is is that really so that i have to install the service pack2 back?? or does nokia have that kind of version of pc suite that supports sp3??
anyway now i have tried 3 hours to get some files to my computer and im getting little bored (by the way i DONT have backups i deleted them because i needed a free space
if anyone nows how to get music to my phone plz tell me
now when i have sp3 the phone doesnt even show that its connected.i tried to connect my older phone it showed that its connected but i could not do anything.
IS THE PROBLEM IN WINDOWS SERVICE PACK3?
OR IS IT IN NOKIA PC SUITE AND MY PHONE
OR IS IT BOTH OF THEM?

I have XP SP3 with all updates from Microsoft. I am using the latest Nokia PC Suite (7.1). I use my Nokia N70 as modem to connect to the Internet using GPRS and the USB cable CA-53. I did not have problems on XP SP2 but on XP SP3 my computer crashes and reboots as soon as PC suite tries to connnect to the device to send the password. Modem diagnostics work fine using modem driver from the device manager. I have older mother board Asus P4S800MX with SiS chipset on a desktop system. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, repaired and tried many things but it always goes back to this problem. I thought I fixed it and it worked but then after reboot it failed again. I think problem must be related to what Nokia does when connecting to my N70 as a modem for GPRS connectivity to the Internet.
I can communicate with the phone using contacts and see messages in the Nokia PC Suite when it is started, so it appears that the USB driver is working well to communicate with the phone but using the phone as an Internet modem, I get a crash (no blue screen just a reboot).
I ended up installing Linux Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid and had no problems connecting to the Internet using linux and my Nokia N70 using the same USB CA-53 cable... without the use of any special linux software... just the standard installation of Ubuntu. So I have confirmed that my problem is not hardware related. Also did extensive memory tests of my computer and no failures.
If anyone as any ideas of how I might solve this problem or even how to go about troubleshooting.. that would be greatly appreciated. I have ensured all driver files exist for Nokia Suite related devices as well by examining driver details. I even installed a clean version of XP and all the updates for SP3 and the problem still happens. I am thinking that perhaps SP3 and Nokia PC Suite has some problems with my older N70 phone.
I have searched the Internet for anyone else having my problem but it seems hard to find so I am left with either giving up on Windows when needing the Internet and converting to Linux (Ubuntu) permanently.. and loosing some of the windows things I enjoy.... like video chatting on MSN and Yahoo.
If you can give me suggestions, please don't be scared to include advanced debugging techniques because I am a programmer/analyst.
CONCLUSION:
Nokia PC Suite + XP SP3 + N70 + CA-53 + Connect = CRASH!!

Messages wont backup on PC!!!!!!!!!!( N91)

Hi, I have tried to backup my N91 onto my PC with PC suite but when i do, the messages are not backed up. Has anyone else had this problem or does anybody know a solution??

No, it would still not working as storage device if you have applications installed on MiniSD. Who will not install on it, won't you? It is so stupid to use this mode. It is better to use a card reader.
Lol, bud. N91/N91 8GB has HDD not detachable memory card. That is why a user may fall off to such problem.
The new leaflet found in N91 8GB says, the HDD is not optimized for contacts, messages etc.

Adobe Creative Suite wont activate

My Adobe Creative Suite CS5 wont activate as it says it is activated on 2 other computers... The computer I'm trying to install it onto now is the only one it should be on... it was installed on it a few times before and I had to reinstall as I was hit with a virus... any way I can install it?

Hi,
Did you have the suite installed on a different computer previously?
Adobe is identifying that the software is installed on 2 different computers already and hence the message.
You can use this link to deactivate your software on any other computer it has been installed on :
Deactivate your Software
In case you don't have it installed on any other computer or don't have access to the computers' its been installed on, please contact the Support team to have this fixed. Use the below link to contact support:
Contact Adobe Support.
After clicking on the link, click on "I need help activating or deactivating my software".
You will have the option to chat with a support agent and will also have a list of phone numbers to the right.
Do let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks

PC Suite:Restoring backup to new phone 6280

I've had a 6280 for ages, using it extensively, it developed a fault and was due to be replaced, so backed up via PC Suite (latest version 6.82). Now won't restore to new 6280 phone, even though it's clearly there as being backed up (approx. 9583kb).Starts going gets to about 20% on contacts then just freezes. Please help. I've looked at questions but can't see what to do. Thanks

Hi, Contacted ClubNokia, who sent me a link to: Contact Transfer application which should assist with extracting your contacts from the backup file.
Please note that this application requires PC Suite 6 .82 to be installed and will only restore contacts from the backup file, no other content type will be restored. The backup file must be located in the default location used by PC Suite which is as follows:
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Nokia\ContentCopier
This application does not delete any data from the handset before restoring the contacts from the backup file. If a contact that is present in the backup file is already on the handset it will be duplicated during the restore process. We would therefore advise you to delete any contacts that you know are included in the backup from the phone so that they are not duplicated. Only contacts from backup files of the type .nbu can be restored using this application.
PLEASE NOTE: ***The Contact Transfer application does not replace Nokia Content Copier and is not officially supported by Nokia***
This did the trick! So I'm back up and runnning. Thanks

Pc suite wont connect?? N80

can anyone help me on this forum?
ive been on several forums and followed instructions and nothing has changed, ill try to explain my problem.
ive got the n80 and been using pc suite ok with it untill i upgraded the firmware to v4.623.0.41
now the cable wont connect to pc suite, i can connect to my laptop via the cable and bluetooth but both wont work with pc suite...
ive tried, deleting pc suite, updating pc suite, cleaning registery, reinstalling cable driver, replacin missin dll files the deleting all again and doin same over.
ive reformatted the n80 and still wont connect, when i connect the cable it asks options and when i press data bridge it does connect but says its not compatable to work with pc suite so please someone out there help me then i will post in other forum and help others too with same problems
thanks in advance

Did the N80 drivers install properly after you reinstalled PC suite?
I think your only option is to uninstall PC Suite and the Cable driver and run the clean up tool, download the latest version of PC Suite and install yet again.
When you get to the part of the installation where you connect the phone, check that the drivers are being installed - there should be a "Found new hardware" message and then a series of messages about things being installed.
If you don't get these, then maybe your cable has failed - have you tried having that replaced?
