Guest starlight_xx Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 Just got my new C600. Not sure I like it - it may end up on ebay yet! My first and totally basic problem is I cant get the data transferred from my C550 to it. When Ive previously upgraded phones Ive used the Orange Backup and done a Restore. This doesnt appear to be on the C600. When I hook it up to my Active Synch my PC wont find the new device to set up a partnership. I tried phoning Orange but gave up after being on hold for 37 mins. Also does anyone know if its possible to alter the colours on the 'Home Page setting' there are 3 defaults, Orange, a horrible grey colour and a red one. I think they all make the phone look really garish. Loved the blue of my C550.

I think they all make the phone look really garish. Loved the blue of my C550. There are only 3 schemes by default. You can make your own by using Madbeetles homescreen builder >>>>CLICK ME<<<< scroll down and look for the "links" then "homescreen builder"
Guest Confucious Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 (edited) IMHO the C600 is a much better phone than th C550 (My 10 ny daughter now has my 550) Which version of AS are you using? You know the 600 won't work with less than 4 (but you should be using 4.2) Edited August 20, 2006 by Confucious

You know the 600 won't work with less than 4 (but you should be using 4.2) Ahhh that could be my problem. So if Install 4.2 synchronise my 550 then I should be able to synch the 600 too? Glad to hear you prefer it, maybe once I use it properly I will I just cant see any advantages at the moment
Guest starlight_xx Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) Still having problems! Ive installed 4.1 which is the disc that came with my C600 Ive connected my C550 and synchronised it no problems. When I connect the C600 it comes up with WS_Sandra as the device name and then comes up with a PC icon. I cant get the data transferred from my C550 to my C600 at all. Course I blame Orange.. if theyd only left the back up facility I wouldnt have this problem :D Can anyone help with where Im going wrong?? Pleeeeeease?? :D Edited August 25, 2006 by starlight_xx
Guest Confucious Posted August 26, 2006 Report Posted August 26, 2006 (edited) The backup program failed to restore to C500s which is robably why they got rid of it. When you say you get the PC icon does it have a coupe of yellow dots flashing ? If you click on it does it say "aquiring network address"? Have you tried leaving it for a bit to see if it connects| Disconnect from the internet then disable your firewall and try again and see if that works. Let us know how yu get on. You could also download AS4.2 as this solved some of the problems with 4.1 Edited August 26, 2006 by Confucious
Guest Monolithix (MVP) Posted August 26, 2006 Report Posted August 26, 2006 Yep, defo recommend getting the latest version of AS. Uninstall the original completely first, and follow the instructions above. I assume AS just isnt detecting the handset is connected?
