Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I am now officially pissed off.
I dropped $40 on Motorola's Phone Tools program, in the hopes of finally getting some pictures off my phone, and maybe installing some custom made ring tones.
The FRELLING PROGRAM refuses to see the phone. I want my forty bucks back.
Actually, I want the effing thing to work right, so I can customize my damned phone! But if that can't happen, I want my damned forty bucks back.
Had you already tried BitPim, Sean?
Motorola PhoneTools kind of sucks, babe. I used it back when I had a Motorola flip-phone, and it was flaky on the best of days, and useless on the worst.
Had you already tried BitPim, Sean?
No, I had not. Off to Google.

Nanotechnology enables it to reassemble itself when thrown against wall
Heh.
Well, crapsteaks. Even BitPim refuses to see my damned phone.
Both programs only see two COM ports -- COM port 1, which is a serial port, and COM port 3, which both programs read as a USB port that has my printer attached to it.
Neither of them see any of my other USB ports for some unfathomable reason.
You might need to install a driver for your phone first, Sean. That's what I needed to do. Try poking around the Howard Forums for threads mentioning your phone model: [link]
Phone Tool should have installed the driver, though. Weird.
Hi. You are all here to witness my slide into the dark side.
I have never ahem-ed in my life. Have no clue what to do or where to get it. I'm given to understand there are various resources I can use but the documentation I have read did not help me to understand which type of ahem tool is best for my purposes.
I'd really appreciate some guidance.

Profile addy is good.
Much obliged for any Samaritan assistance.
I should add that I have the vlc player...but the forums are telling me that doesn't necessarily matter with aheming.
I'm completely flummoxed...and I get that this is a stupid question...but I'm not finding any how-tos that are even remotely helpful.
