    Hi,

    I am a 6600 newbie so am sorry if this question has been asked before.
    Is there a way to set things up so that the 6600 appears under my
    computer? It would be cool to be able to access data on the phone using
    standard windows techiques as opposed to having to use the pc suite
    wizards.

    Also, if anyone can suggest some good web sites with tips and faqs, that
    would be much appreciated as well.

    Thanks,

    --Al

    Any minute now the guy from Oxygen Software will try to sell you his
    alternative PC suite. Apart from that AFAIK there is no way to do
    exactly what you ask. It is possible to send docs to the 6600 without
    PC Suite (using BT File Transfer) but getting them off it is a lot
    harder.

    For a very good factsheet and FAQ see

    BASEURL=http://www.filesaveas.com/6600.html

    In fact that site is a great resource for numerous mobiles.

    I use infared to transfer data between my pc and the 6600. Once that my infared
    session 'connects,' an Explorer-type application starts and I can move files
    around here and there.

    I don't THINK it has visibility to all file types on the camera. (I am
    recalling this away from my home pc. Sorry.)

    Xref: news.newshosting.com alt.cellular.nokia:162882

    On the Nokia 7250, installing PC Suite also comes with a special folder
    Phone Browser in My Computer. Whenever I connect by infrared, I can open My
    Computer and then drill down to the Gallery folder on the 7250. Hence no
    need to start PC Suite. In fact, if I remember correctly, there is nothing
    in the PC Suite that will allow me to transfer files.

    Wonder if there is something similar on the 6600.

    not as far as I can tell I can send and receive files through a windows
    wizard, but only pc suite will allow me to browse file and picture folders
    on the phone, but not system files and folders

    It was first discovered on a space mission flight that a frog could throw
    up. First it throws up its stomach, uses its forearms to dig out the food
    and then swallows it stomach back down.

    oh wait, you must be using the software that came with the dongle, some
    software creates a "Bluetooth places" directory tree. mine came with
    widdcom's but I never could get it to work

    You cannot reason a man out of that which he has not been reasoned into.

    Hi All,

    utility is called Pc File Manager from Epocware.
    YOu can download an evaluation from:
    http://www.epocware.com/download/Nokia_6600.html

    Enjoy, I know I will.

    I've not used this, but this seems to be what you are looking for:

    I'd be interested to know what you think, if you try it out.

    I bought one of those Widcomm dongle's and works fine..Look for the "OBEX
    file exchanger"sub-directory (displays your phone's contents including
    system files) in that very same directory..
