Hi Everybody

Does anybody know how I can move my photos (that I took with my MCA25) to my PC? I can email them to myself, but that works out rather expensive.

I've got a Bluetooth connection with my PC for phonebook manipulation and SMSing, but I can't find any way of getting the photo's moved to my PC.

Email me at rdr__1@hotmail.com

Thanx

Ryan

1. move photos from cam to phone
2. send pics from phone to PC via bluetooth
3. enjoy pics on PC
4. dance
5. stop getting so eager with the submit button.. pressing it once will do the trick.

Sorry Mixin

I've been unable to move the Pix from my T68i via BT to my PC, what setup do you use? Software?

I found a work-around

Take the picture and move it to your "My pictures" folder

Connect your phone to your PC, either via cable, BT or IR.

On your phone go to the phone book, manage contact, edit contact.
Pick a contact to act as your workhorse.
Edit the contact's picture and select the picture you want to move.
Go one step back to the phonebook list view.
Highlight the entry and use the option key and select send contact to your PC.

I'm using Mobile Agent and it's setup to drop the contact on my desktop.
If you just double click on the contact you'll get their details in Addres book, but no picture. Don't do this.
Use Note or WordPad to open the .vcf file.

You'll see the contact details and "PHOTO;ENCODING=BASE64;TYPE=JPEG:" Copy everything after the ":" till the end of the paragraph. It's a big chunk of text.

At this point I saved an email with a .jpg attachment to my desktop and opened it using WordPad again.

You'll see the file content and a chunk of text "similar" to the one you just copied.
Replace the chunk in the email with the chunk from the .vcf.

Now save the email from WordPad and open it in Outlook Express and zhezam there's your pic. All that is left to be done is saving the pic and rename it like any email attachment.

I don't know how this will work with Outlook, but give it a try or if there's a contact manager that can import the .vcf and read the image info.

If someone can make an easier work around, please do. This is a very labourious method.

I'm not a programmer, but if you've got ideas on how to do this easier drop me a mail at rdr__1@hotmail.com
