I don't know Chris but I don't think its as simple as copying a file and
then putting it back. If you can't sync with outlook there are backup
programs out there that should do the trick.

Hello again.

How can I back up my contacts, emails, photos, files, operator settings,
programs?
I don't have Outlook on my main PC: is there another program I can d/l and
use?

Cheers,

Steff
