I have a Bold and I love it…. but I wish there was a way to get my movies from my ITUNES to my Bold…. Any ideas?
Yeah I have an idea. If that phone has a memory card in it(I am sure that it does) you could have a way to transfer all f your info to your phone. Make sure that you computer has a card reader either built-in (most now-a-days do) or an external that can read SD (San Disk) memory cards (most phones use these cards some dont so check to make sure) you might need to use a San Disk card adapter in order to make this work (you can get these almost anywhere…Walmart, Circuit City, Best Buy etc.). Take your card out of your phone use the adapter (if you need it) plug it into the Card reader that’s attatched to your computer it should show up as a random mass storage device on you Mycomputer screen. Open it up make a New Folder name it whatever you like drag and drop your info and dump it onto the card (of course be aware of the size of the info your putting on your card). Plug it back into your phone and there you go your phone will assimlate it and you will have access to your things. Now note that this is the long way to do it…..if you can Sync your phone to your computer then you will not need to do all of this just plug your phone into your USB, Infrared, or Bluetooth and go to town. If you want further utilities you should be able to look up all of the new programs for your specific phone(have your info right or you might get the wrong info/programs for your phone.) I hope that this answers your questions and helps you out.
