Backing up Contacts !!!URGENT!!!

[AshleyJohn]

Hi there,

I backed up all my contacts etc using the backup thing on my nokia n80 to my memory card before updating the software on the phone. Well while using the nokia update manager it crashed and now my phone wont turn on. I have sent it back to three to look at and have a loan phone in the mean time but what I would like to do is get my contacts from the memory card, it seems to have created a file called backup.arc but how to view the contents of this file.

Is there a nokia n80 emulator that I could restore this file to in order to view my contacts?

Thanks for you help! :-)

dont know a full answer but .arc files are just files compressed in old technology compression.

If you could find a PC app to uncompress the arc file you should be able to view the contacts list in some text format.

something like ALZip.
