    Hi Guys,

    Apologies if this has been asked before.....


    I bought a Nokia 6300 today and want to know is there any way I can transfer all my phone numbers and texts from my old Nokia 6230i to the 6300?

    If I cannot move the texts....is there any other way I can save them, e.g. to my Vodafone account, to my laptop, etc?
    (I want to save a good few of the texts currently on my phone because they are from a special lady friend of mine;))

    Any tips appreciated!

    Cheers,
    Silvera.

    Some stores have a special machine to move contacts, messages and pics from one phone to another.

    PC suite

    Backup from 6230i (Contacts & Text Messages)
    Restore to 6300 (Contacts & Text Messages)

    For Gallery, Transfer to PC, then transfer to 6300

    I've heard these rumours, who has such a machine?


    As for contacts - I used www.zyb.com

    Otherwise you could get a bluetooth adapter for your PC and sync using Nokia PC Suite.


    ++ edit ++ nazoil just jumped in ahead of my with PC Suite .. last time I used PC Suite the backup covered files too but it should say.

    I assume the OP is getting confused by PC suite as I certainly never saw one!

    I am a but confused alright ??

    By "PC Suite" do you guys mean the CD Rom that comes with the mobile??

    It would be great if I could go to some place and have it all transferred like neilled mentioned above??!
