Title: Acquiring images from phone
Post by: 0239666 on December 03, 2007, 05:52:04 pm

I was wondering if it is possible to acquire media mainly images, from my phone using MC12? Its a Motorola RAZR.

Yes.

Click "Camera" in the Action Window.

I tried that. It doesn't work I'm afraid. It doesnt see it. I am able to get the images off using Motorola Phone Tools but I'd way prefer to use MC12.
Any ideas on how to set it up with MC12? MPT is slow and takes up too much space.

Get a copy of 12.0.380 from the top of the MC12 board.  It works with the RAZR.

Start MC first.  Then plug in the RAZR.  Wait. 
The first time you may need to quit and try again.

In Windows Explorer, right click on the device, choose properties and turn off autoplay.  Windows can get in the way.

It may take 30 to 60 seconds for Windows to recognize the device.  Watch in Windows Explorer.

It works.  I have one.

Where did you get your drivers from? I plug mine in and nothing happens. It doesn't show up in Windows Explorer or as a USB Device in the icon tray. Only MPT knows its connected. Is yours the V3 or the V3i?

Mine is a V3i.  It just shows up as a removable drive in Windows.  No driver required.
