Hi All,

I am new in this forum, but I hope you will try to help me anyway )
I have this great phone (yes a T68, of course )
However I have a "small" problem" with the IRDA connection.
The thing is that I need to connect the T68 to the PC and I want to make a back up of the phone (by means of the back up software mentioned else were in this forum). Anyway This is what I have done so far:

I have activated the IR receiver on my computer and I can see in the systray that there is a communication going on between phone and PC

I have installed the MPM from SE

I have installed the backup SW for the T68

Now the real problem is that when I start the backup SW it does not "see" the T68. I mean the backup SW does not write what kind of phone etc etc. and the button "backup" is not active. However when I start the backup sw I can see in a glimse of a sec that the MPM is activated in the syttray, but then it "goes away" again.

Now I have realized that what i miss is the "link" between the IR connection and the backup sw, and this missing link is the MPM sw, but how can I get it to work correctly??????
I have also tried other programs for the T68 but the result is more or less the same. Further to this I have triede on two computers but still no result. However the strange tingh is that the "my picture" sw (or what ever it is called) worked for some time, but now nothing works..!!??

I have tried almost everything..reinstallation of the SW both the IR, the MPM and the back up. I have tried all possible setting in the IR sw and the MPM sw..I have triede two computers...but nothing works...I have also checked this brililiant forum (so I did not have to bother you), but no one seems to have this problem...or maybe I am just to dumb to have it to work )...but PLEASE HELP ME...someone...

Very best regards and thanks in advance for your help..

My friend bought a new T39 phone. We installed the softwares from CD. First time looked ok, but second time the IR port didn't work properly. I reinstalled all the softwares but the problem wasn't solved.
The solution in your case : We took the phone to Service Point and reinstall the phone software.
If this helped then write in the topic please.....

Sorry my english....
