Install/Remove software
The Install/Remove software application enables
you to install communicator software from a PC
and later remove the software from the commu-
nicator.
The Install/Remove software main view displays
the serial connection type and the PC drive used.
Press Settings to change the connection type or
to redefine the PC drive used. The connection
type is changed by pressing Change. The directo-
ry name and path can be edited manually.
Before using this application, make sure that the
connectivity software has been installed on your
PC and is running (see ”Connecting to a PC” on
page 10-5).
To install software:
1 Press Install in the Install/Remove software
view. The communicator starts to search for
software to install from the designated PC
drive. If installable software is found, it will be
listed on the screen.
2 Select the software you want to install with
the selection frame and press Install.
When installation is complete, the confirmation
note tells you under which application button
the software was installed (destination cannot
be selected). If an application with the same
name as the software to be installed already ex-
ists, you will be asked to confirm the replace-
ment operation by pressing Replace or to cancel
it with Cancel.
To remove software
1 Press Remove to search for removable soft-
ware on the communicator. The amount of
free space on your communicator is also dis-
played.
2 Select the software you want to remove and
press Remove.
Note: The set of applications that are on the
communicator at the time of purchase
cannot be removed.
Caution: Beware of viruses! Install into the No-
kia 9000i Communicator only software you have
obtained from sources that offer adequate pro-
tection against viruses.
Backup/Restore
The Backup/Restore application enables you to
make backups of various data on your communi-
cator, and to restore it later. Data is backed up in
sets which are stored in separate directories on
the PC.
Before using this application, make sure that the
connectivity software has been installed on your
PC and is running (see ”Connecting to a PC” on
page 10-5).
When data is backed up the previous contents of
the backup directories will be deleted. If you
want to keep the previous backup set, you should
copy the files to another directory on the PC, or
change the backup directory in the Backup/Re-
store settings before making a new backup.
When data is restored, only files with similar names
in the destination folder will be overwritten.
The Backup/Restore main view shows the data
group which will be backed up or restored, the
connection type (infrared or cable) and the back-
up or restoration directory. Press Settings to
change the connection type or the path to the PC
directory.
