Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / November 2006Sony Ericsson W300i
Just got this thing. Loaded the software up but am unable to transfer files via USB. I spoke to SE help people who say it is a hardware problem and so 02 are sending a new phone. It is very strange but for the last year I had an SE K700 and had exactly the same problem with it. Both phones are "unseen" by the computer, even when properly configured and connected. Is this a generic problem with Sony Ericsson phones? I have loaded the software onto both of my computers and it is exactly the same on both. Very strange. John > Just got this thing.

It's not a problem with the phones, it's your PC, or the way in which you have(/haven't) installed drivers (correctly) - a new phone will be of no use, trust me. > > Just got this thing.

I was thinking that as well. Never mind, I'll see what happens. It just seems strange that it does it on both of my machines which are of different make. >> It's not a problem with the phones, it's your PC, or the way in which you >> have(/haven't) installed drivers (correctly) - a new phone will be of no [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > seems strange that it does it on both of my machines which are of > different make. Drivers aren't necessarily installed correctly, I'd get them all on your desktop, and then install them youself, or via 'windows update' (you're using Windows XP, I presume?) - it should ask for quite a number of drivers, but with them all laid out on your Desktop, you can simply refer to 'Desktop' constantly to speed up the process of finding them. > >> It's not a problem with the phones, it's your PC, or the way in which you > >> have(/haven't) installed drivers (correctly) - a new phone will be of no [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > but with them all laid out on your Desktop, you can simply refer to > 'Desktop' constantly to speed up the process of finding them. Thanks a lot for this. I found the drivers, and I seem to have them for every SE phone there is, in a long list, and installed them manually. Perfect. Why they can't tell you to do this in the instructions I cannot imagine. Maybe it is a ploy to get you to phone their expensive help lines. John. > Thanks a lot for this.

The disc seems not to hold them although there are ME and Win98 drivers there. Michael > > Thanks a lot for this.

[quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Michael I did the following after running their disc :- Open C Drive folders Click on Program files " " Sony Ericsson " " Mobile 2 " " Drivers " " Signed then there is a long list of what seems to be all their phones. I found mine in the list, about 15 files, and then right-clicked on each file in turn. If it said install I did so. That was all I did. Best of luck with it John >> > Thanks a lot for this.

No, they should just behave like a usb pen drive. SOunds like your computer(s) to me or you've been very unlucky.
