transfer app on the n73?

[Liam548]

can it transfer all messages from older nokias like the 6630?

on my n73 i only get offered contacts,gallery and calendar entries etc?

Yes, but is an hard work. With PCSuite - Nokia Phone Browser - Messages, copy the messages from old phone to PC. After, same process, from PC to new phone... but only on regular folders, not with own folders.

ive not used pc suite much but how on earth do you save messages to the pc then transfer them to the new phone?

[Liam548]

you have to restore everything to the new phone done you, i cant just select to send messages from the pc to the phone i have to send contacts, calendar entries etc

[nj7]

Install PCSuite. Then it create a folder - Nokia Phone Browser, inside a new one - Messages. Then you can see Inbox, Outbox and other folders (not personal ones). Copy the content to PC folder. Pair the new device, and do the oposite process.

sorry for being thick but i cant just copy and paste from the messages folder when using phone browser can i?

If i highlight 1000 messages (not mms ones as they dont show ;( then right click there is no "copy" function. I cant copy and paste between the two phones.

How can You connect two phones to one PCSuite and one computer? It must be one at time. And it can copy also MMS´s. I have donne that, between one N70 and one N91, and after btween 3230 and N73.

ive got one connected via usb and the other by bluetooth.

Regardless of this i still cant copy messages when using phone browser.

please tell me step by step what to do..

Do i use the mouse and right click highlighted messages I want to copy to the new phone?

when i look at my message folder on pc suite no mms show up at all..

[nj7]

PCSuite ask wich phone will be connected. One by one. When it is connected, on PCS - NPB - Messages folder, You can see yours on that folder on PC. Just grab them to another PC folder. After that, disconnect the original phone from PCSuite, and connect the new one, and do the oposite. I don´t know to explaian more easy...

"just grab them to another pc folder"

how do i do that?

Use Content copier from PC Suite and make a backup on PC but watch out the extension: nfc can be used from one phone to another, while nfb can be used only on the same type of phone. Let's say you make a nfb type backup of your 6630. This backup can be restored only on another 6630. If you make a nfc backup, you can restore it on almost any Nokia. My brother recovered his messages from a 6230 on his 6630 in this way.

Try as I say, or as nj7, it works in both ways.
