Hi, im new in this forum........... 😎 :icon14:

So here's my story, I recently bought the N80 and after using this wonderful piece of hardware for like 3 weeks, I decided that the 128 Mb's Mini-SD card that came with the cellphone was just NOT enough (especially because I like taking photos)

So, i bought this Kingmax 1 GB card----- Not bad, everything just ran as usual.....

After taking some pics, i wanted to play with the phone a little bit, and then i found out, that half my the applications were missing!!! Even though i copied everything from the first Mini-SD card to the new one.......

Here is my question, is there any way you can transfer ALL your old applications from an old MMC (specifically the one that came with the phone) to a new MMC?
Or there is some kind of protection code that does not allow the application to run in other MMCs?

I just Like/want the "Talking Dictionary" application BTW

THX

well first of all u gotta do this (BTW use search engine i have answered this b4 😃)

1.- Insert ur old miniSD on a mem card reader
2.- create a folder in ur desktop named miniSD
3.- open the miniSD that its on the reader, then on the menu that is on the top, select TOOLS then FOLDER OPTIONS then VIEW then check the optionbox that says "show all hidden files and folders" then apply and then ok
4.- select all the folders and copy them
5.- paste them on the folder that is on the desktop (miniSd)
6.- Format ur 2Gb miniSD on ur N80
7.- when it finishes, take it off from the N80 and plug it in ur card reader
8.- copy everything from the folder that was on the desktop (miniSd) to ur 2Gb miniSD car, if it asks u to replace all click on "yes to all"

this will do the job

cheers

This, is always to be asked. We need to make a FAQ, where this and others are always in the TOP. Almost every day� 🙄

We're working on this kind of thing. We do have a support section that people are welcome to contribute too.

would be interesting to see how many people actually will go there first before asking here with problems and questions though, I have seen so many people in this forum asking about where to find software and apps, and there is a sticky link within the first 2 posts....
