[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >>>> > But you had so clear advice from the program to backup your data first! I thought i did to be honest. When i tried to restore the data back to a Nokia 7610 it wouldnt let me?? Could i possibly be saved when i plug the new N70 back in???? UrKo >>> will try that. getting a new one but i need to try to get the >>> information off the phone first!! [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > UrKo Sorry, got the impression that you had not done backup at all. Anyway, I've been able to restore (most) data from a backup of another phone model. If you did not succeed restoring anything from the N70 backup, sounds like you do not have anything. What does your phone restore view show? For me it automatically selects from the list the last backup data of the connected device but it allows me to select another file too. I hope you find something that originates from your N70 backup attempt. >>>> will try that. getting a new one but i need to try to get the >>>> information off the phone first!!

You cannot restore to a 7610 (mentioned in one of your further posts). Nokia's suite does not allow to backup/restore to different phone models.

Honestly this may not work between all models but on my Nokia PC Suite if I have a backup from phone A and select phone B from PC Suite backup/restore, I get a window saying: "Select backup file to be restored. The content backed up from the phones listed below can be restored to the connected phone." And I have window showing backup from several different Nokia phone models, including S40 and S60 ones. I can then select if I want to restore contacts calendar etc. and/or images, videos etc. OK, I don't have 7610, could be that this specific phone is not supported but that would be really odd (since I have another phone with the same S60 version as in 7610). >>>>>>> will try that. getting a new one but i need to try to get the >>>>>>> information off the phone first!!

When i replaced my Nokia 7610 with my 6680, this was the first thing I tried. But it came up with the error 'phone model incorrect from original backup' or something along those lines. |
