Hello Steve and Amro,
I have certainly learned something new from the two of you. I didn't
realise that what is backed up from the phone to the memory card is
compressed so doesn't appear under the individual categories, such as
contacts, calendar, etc.
And I don't want to have to hate you for the rest of my life either, Amro,
so I have installed the latest PC Suite and backed up my phone to the PC as
well. And as Steve suggested, it's easy to do with the latest version where
the menus, if not the entire screen, are perfectly accessible.
Presumably the .NBU file which is created on my PC when I back up through PC
Suite is compressed which is why it also doesn't seem to be readable by any
application.
All I have to do now is to be brave enough to update the firmware on my
phone, always assuming it's available to my T-Mobile-branded phone!
Caroline.

Hi Caroline,
It is right, as the text messages in a backup are compressed, so they
wouldn't show up as text messages. But if you were to delete all your
messages, and restore them, I bet they'd come back.
All the best
Steve

Steve,
That's what I did, and it seemed to be working as Talks spoke the increasing
percentages and told me that backup was complete when it had finished. But
when I then went to Memory Details, it told me that I had 0b of messages, 0b
of contacts and 0b of calendar entries on the memory card, which can't be
right. I've got 1946 mb free on the card, so space obviously isn't the
problem. There doesn't seem to be anywhere to specify what you want to back
up - it's all or nothing by the looks of it, and in my case, nothing is just
about what I'm getting.
Do you have any other suggestions, or am I going to have to resort to PC
Suite?
Thanks,
Caroline.

Hi Caroline,
If you go to Tools, Memory Card, then Options, Backup to Memory Card, it
should back everything up.
All the best
Steve

Steve,
Thanks for this. I haven't previously used the updater but have it
installed now. I do need to back up my phone before going any further
though, and thought this could be done through the application on the Tools
menu which would allow me to back up to my memory card. Although I go
through the process, it seems as if only image files are being backed up,
which isn't what I was hoping for as I have a lot of messages and contacts I
want to save as well. It sounds as if I will have to investigate backing up
through PC Suite instead.
Caroline.

Hi Caroline,
The only way to find that out, is to plug in your phone, and run the Nokia
updater. I know of no other way, I'm afraid.
All the best
Steve

Hello Steve,
Do you happen to know if the new firmware for the N73 would work on a phone
locked to T-Mobile, as mine is? There hasn't been a new version released to
T-Mobile since early last year.
Caroline.

Hi Caroline,
Actually, that could be the problem. It seems to work better on phones like
the N82 though.
By the way, there's a new firmware for your N73, just released about a week
ago, try it to see if it fixes your problem.
All the best
Steve

Could this be another example of the problem where Talks will only read
plain text messages properly when you open them. If a message is received
in HTML, the only way to read it is either to reply to it or to forward it.
I have this problem on my N73 and find it rather annoying, but it is
definitely only HTML messages which behave in this manner for me.
Caroline.

Hi Saqib,
No, this makes no difference. If you have it set to headers only, it still
downloads the body when you open the Email. It is something else, which we
can't easily reproduce.
All the best
Steve

It looks like your just receiving email headers only and you need to change
that in settings.
