I dont know if im just being plain stupid here but should i be able to upload songs etc onto my 512 memory card through the usb cable to the phone or do i need a memory card reader?

if i do is there a special type of reader or will i be able to get one on the high street?

you can upload mp3s, videos, pics, etc to your phone using the cable, you may also buy a card reader or for wireless, buy a bluetooth adaptor or infrared adapter which is slower. its your choice to make bro and have fun with your cool phone...

Have you connected the phone and PC using the USB cable??
If so, is your phone and mem stick being detected by the PC..
If detected, all youneed to do is drag and drop files you want to transfer from the PC to the mem stick

I think the best bet is to start by installing the SE PC Suite from the CD that came with the phone. This way all drivers would be installed and everything should go smoothly from there

Can be a conflict an the "drives" on your PC. If I have my Ipod connected, the computer didn't "see" the phone connected through the USB-cable.

Same thing happened to a colleauge of mine. He had mapped network drives with the same drive letter as the phone were supposed to have.

Change the drive letter of the phone and it should work (if it is this problem..).

If you're using windows xp, it's should be plug and play. But if you're using windows 98 or older, you'd have to install the PC suite that came with your phone. Try un-installing and installing again.

how would i change the drive letter? sorry to be a pain in neck.

im on xp, it finds the memory card using plug and play, i go to the device manager and it says there are no drivers installed for this device or the device is working properly, i then try to update the drivers from the cd but it says it cant find anything new. i uninstall the driver so plug and play finds the memory card again but it says This device cannot start.

Well, i can't say for sure what's wrong. But the next best alternative when all else fails would be to get a card reader and transfer your files directly. Transfer speeds are higher too.
