File transfer to MMC

1 replies · 3,295 views · Started 03 December 2003

I got a nokia 6600 connect to my PC via Bluetooth through Mrouter and the PC suite software that bunled with the phone.

Everything has been fine for a while, but just recently PC suite has been throwing an error when I try to move a file from the PC to the root of the MMC in the phone.

It says 'PC Suite was unable to copy the file because it already exists'.

The thing is, the file does not exist on the memory card, that much I am sure. A workaround for some files was to transfer it via PC suite to a sub folder on the MMC and then use a file manager on the phone to move it to the root. However with larger files, the phone does not have enough memory to perform this cut and paste operation.

Anybody come across this/know why this is happening?

Short of formatting the card and starting again (somthing i dont really want to do) I cant figure it out.

Cheers.

Sorted! it must be the PC suite software, because I have just downloaded Epochware PC file manager and moving the same file works fine!
