Thanks for the links, however, I get a Windows Logo testing error. Did anybody else get this? And should I proceed?

run_up_hill

I've unzipped the files from the link above, and am able to see and run the p2kcommander.exe file, but it didn't unzip any P2kdrivers_2.8 file described next. Am I missing something?? The P2k software doesn't seem to be recognizing the V3 without this?

fitz

run_up - did you grab the right files? The attached file is the p2kcommander files. There are a couple links in the first post that link to the driver downloads.

1. install the software (does the disk say "certified for Vista"?)
2. connect the usb cable to your computer
3. open the motorola phone tools on your PC (either from the desktop icon if you let one be installed, or from your start>programs menu
3. you'll get a message saying motorola phone tools is unable to communicate with the phone. connect the cable to the phone.
4. there will be some time initializing ... .maybe updating firmware as well.
5. when the phone looks connected, click "multimedia studio".
6. drag and drop
7 consult the online help for more guidance

*this is an approximation. Since the last time my phone updated, I've been unable to move things back and forth. I'm spending some time today to troubleshoot the error message online (searching for the error) and then will go to the cingular store and whine to them.

** if the software hasn't been certified on vista none of this might work. i'm not an early adopter of O/Ss and still very happy-ish on windows xp.

best of luck!

Thanks for the download for the driver, it worked like a charm. Now if I can get the phone tools to work I can get my pics off my phone.

Please bear with me . ..

1) First many thanks for the easy instructions and download of P2k !!!!

Second, I am trying to understand what software (minimally) I need to do the following functions. (I have added some guesses, so you understand what I mean)

Charge phone from Laptop P2k
Delete some templates to free some memory ??
Back-up or manage my Phone Book to/on Laptop MPT ?
Transfer Pics/Videos from Camera to Laptop (and vise versa) MPT ?

I really only need the first 3 functions, I can e-mail the Pics from phone to Laptop if I have to.

Again, thanks in advance, trying to avoid the $39 for MPT !!

K for some reason I've had to post this three times...
Has anyone tried this with vista yet? I downloaded the driver and extracted it and when I manually selected the driver folder and it said it didn't find it and directed me to the Motodev site to download that.
Anybody know what to do here?

gsrider

HELP!

It worked like a charm yesterday, all the drivers loadeded ect. Then I got MPT and it worked great. today. when I restarted and plugged my phone in it called it a l7c/k1m/v3m and the drivers don't work anymore. I have restored computer to earlier time and plugged back in and same thing. If I can get the drivers to recognize the phone I'm back in buisness but for now, I'm a little confused. Any help? Thank you.

fitz

you had to post it three times because you're first post must be approved by a moderator and/or admin before you are allowed to post more.

As for your driver issues, which file did you download. The attached files in the first post (p2kcommander) is not a driver. You need to follow the links in the first post to your driver.

note: I have edited the first post to try to make this fact a little clearer.

Sorry for that, I saw that right after my third post but they were not up yet to edit. Thank you for clearing those up for me. I didn't use the attached files, but used the redmeteor link which appeared to me to be the right file. I guess I didn't try the other link, but I will now.

It's weird, because I know I downloaded the redmeteor file, (assume it's the driver) but the files were: p2k, (p2k.sys, and USBMOT2000) I will try both the links again, while a moderator looks at my post so I don't post 2 more times and look stupid.
