7 Nokia Phone Editor
Nokia Phone Editor is a program that allows you to edit and manage various functions of your phone from the keyboard of your
PC. Phone Editor consists of the following components:
•
Contacts - used to manage phone book entries in your SIM card and in the phone's memory. Also used to store contact
information on your PC
•
Messages - used to read, write, send, and organize your SMS messages from your PC. Also used to store and organize SMS
messages on your PC
•
Profiles - used to edit profile and caller group settings from your PC
•
Settings - used to view and modify various system and message settings. Also used to store configure your personal business
card information
•
Monitor - used to view the status of the phone while the phone is connected to your PC
• BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Make sure you establish an infrared connection between your phone and PC before using Phone Editor. If your phone is not
connected to your PC, you cannot edit and manage your phone's information and settings.
Important: Phone Editor cannot be used during active digital data or fax calls (and vice versa). Do not try to use these two
features simultaneously.
• PHONE MEMORY AND PC STORAGE LOCATIONS
Phone Editor uses three different storage locations for your data and settings: phone memory, SIM card memory, and your PC (RAM
memory and hard drive storage)
Each time you launch Phone Editor, phone numbers, text messages and various phone settings (in both phone and SIM card) are
read into Phone Editor's memory. When you terminate the infrared connection or exit the program, your phone's information is
stored on your PC. The next time you use Phone Editor, the information stored on your PC is updated.
• CHOOSE THE RIGHT APPLICATION FOR MANAGING CONTACTS
If you don't already use a PIM application like Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Organizer, Nokia Phone Editor's Contacts application is
the perfect choice for editing and managing your contacts (both phone memory and SIM card). Phone Editor creates a direct
connection to you phone's memory and allows you to add or modify your phone book quickly and easily.
Nokia Phone Editor limitations
Nokia Phone Editor can only manage contacts with one number per name. However, your phone's memory is capable of storing
multiple phone numbers and text fields (e-mail addresses, Web addresses, etc.) per entry.
You cannot use Phone Editor to create or manage phone book entries with multiple names per number. Nor can you create or add
text fields to any contacts you create in Phone Editor.
Note: When more than one number per name exists, Phone Editor displays the Mobile or General number you stored. For
more information on number types and assigning or modifying number types, please see your phone's user guide.
Use Nokia PC Sync
If you have multiple numbers and/or text fields per phone book entry you can
still manage your phone book from your PC. This can be done easily by using a
PIM application, along with Nokia PC Sync. For more information about Nokia
PC Suite, please see page 12.
