Card Reader Needed !??

5 replies · 1,892 views · Started 16 November 2005

Hi

I have just purchased TTM5 and it suggests that I should back up the memory card that came with the pack.

What is the best way to do this ? Do I need a RS MMC card reader ??

If so any idea where I can get one ?

Help !!

If you have pc suite and can connect your phone to your pc then you can use the backup feature of pc suite.

If not you'll have to look to see what is cheaper; buying an usb dongle or buying a mmc card reader. If it was me I would purchase the dongle as you can then use the other features of pc suite.

Yeah sorry, I'm not with it today.

I would use the backup feature of pc suite then, it gives you the option to backup the mem card as well as the phone.

It has become very useful for me in the past, especially when my phone has crashed on me and i've lost everything.

Nice one !

I have just installed PC suite on my work PC....I have a mac at home so not sure if it will work on that !

I have taken a backup of my TomTom memory card and I have ordered a 256 rs-mmc card which should be here tomorrow, I will then put the backup file on the new card and hey presto .....Hopefully !!

Cheers for the advise !

No probs.

If the backup doesnt work for whatever reason the use the other option 'Copy contents from phone to pc'. This copies the contents rather than making a backup.
