Mobile phone pictures/ ringtones problem

[claxton]

Is it possible to upload photos from my mobile phone to store them on my PC? If so, how do I do it? What lead do I need? (My phone's a Sagem.)

Also, My friend has tried to send me a ringtone I like by infra-red but it and won't do it and comes up saying it's copyright barred. Is there any way round this? It's one of the tones that came with her Nokia phone.

Cheers.

Depends on the model of the phone, and to certain extent what the pictures are - if you have bought them, rather than taken them youself, the phone's DRM (digital rights management system) could well prevent you from uploading them or sending them.

My own phone, for example, will let me download any pictures I want to it, but if I try to send a picture that I've bought off the network, it won't let me.

It's the nature of capitalism, I'm afraid.

If you tell us what model phone and network you are on, it should be easy enough to work out if you can/can't.
