tin Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Its something to do with infrared. I dont know exactly but I got the same problem. Someone told me that you've got to enable infrared reception on your computer and mobile and it should pick it up. No idea how to do it though. Sorry but hope thats of some help!

dazza247 Posted May 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Eh?! It's all French to me!! I'm sure there must be some way of sending the picture from my phone to some account on the internet and doing it that way?! Sorry for sounding stupid...I can use a keyboard, type letters, search on the internet..anything more than that and I'm like a Gashead experiencing good football(ie it's new to me)!!

Tipps Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 I'm sure you need the lead, similar to the one you would use to upload the pictures from a digital camera to a computer, they cost about £40 I think you'll find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 £40 for a lead? WTF is the world coming to. Last week I needed a new charger for my mobile £15!!! For a wire and plug, huh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Red_Atyeo Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 It all depends on which phone you have. Most likely that with a camera phone, you will have infra red. This is a form of electromagnetic radiation, but basically means that you can send information through the air. If your phone does have it, it will look like a black about 5 X 10mm panel. Most Nokia's have them. If you have a laptop, press send on your phone, find the "black thing " on your laptop and it well send it through if you point them towards one another. If you only have a pc, you need a Infra red adapter, which plugs into your Usb port, also known as IRDA adapter. You can get ripped for these, up to about £60 on the high street. The best place is ebuyer.com. Check here for an absolute bargain Ebuyer IRDA adpater I have had mine for about a year, just for putting up photo's taken with my phone or puttin mp3's onto my phone, it is till working perfectly. The alternative is the Nokia money making cable. I wouldn't bother, because you need special software etc. where as with the infrared it runs straight off windows. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man In Black Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 If you need free software as well, head to www.mobileaction.com and download the program version for your phone, you can't beat it, it's how I get all the stuff off of my phone - an infrared adaptor and a Nokia 7250i mobile action program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
