Install Support Plug-in??

When doing a backup via PC Suite, I get the following message: "The connected phone does not have messages support installed. Messages cannot be backed up. View Help to find instructions on how to install the support plug-in. Click Ok to backup phone without messages support or Cancel to abort the operation." I can't find anything in Help regarding an installable plug-in. What's up? Thanks. MSL

Re: Install Support Plug-in??

It's easy.

the plugin is built-in in the PC Suite.

Just go to the NOKIA PHONE browser >> Messages

Then the PC suite will automatically ask (or just REFRESH with F5)"YOU WANT TO INSTALL THE SUPPORT ON YOUR PHONE FOR THE MESSAGES ??"

there, you should select YES.

Then, the plugin will be copied to phone and just Complete the installation process in the Phone.

Done !!

It does no such thing. Going to "Messages" allows me to view messages on my phone from the Browser, but there is NO prompt to install any Plug-in. "F5" does nothing perceptible.

Go to Help on the main pc suite window and select 'reinstall pc suite on your phone'. It installs a mms file on your phone and back up works fine.
