terribleturner Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 My bloody phone/PDA crashed this morning and wiped everything. Just set it up to back up all that i last saved and it's telling me there's nothing there, although i can see my contact file etc... Any ideas??

Max Headroom Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Has it not saved them to a file in your "My Documents" file on your PC ? When you set up the activSync did you give it a name, look for that in the My Documents file ? Im not a PC wizard, just trying to help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 Cheers for the reply. I selected the old profile and that's where it then told me there's nothing saved. Gonna keep playing but looks like i've lost all my numbers and pictures etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how_supra Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 James didn't you have the pda stuff downloaded onto your pc the other day and you deleted the folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 No, i did it twice straight after each other and so deleted one. Maybe it took both?? I don't know. I'm just in a love hate situation with my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmic Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 James as u know ive been having the same probs with my PDA since i got it. I do a full backup now everyday when i dock it into the cradle. SO if it does crash you can do a restore. But if its syncd properly it will store your contacts on your pc in outlook and you can copy them over back onto the PDA. I use the sd storgae card for all my pics/vids etc so its not volatile as the PDA main memory if things go tits up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
