• ABBREVIATIONS

For the purposes of this user guide, the following abbreviations are used:

• SAFETY NOTES

• Do not switch on your phone when wireless phone use is prohibited, or when it may cause interference or danger.

• Please make backup copies of all important data to protect against possible loss or alteration.

• When connecting to any other device, read its user guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

• To avoid any potential loss of data, you should not make or receive calls while synchronizing data between the phone and a PC.

• Do not point the IR beam at anyone’s eyes or allow it to interfere with other IR devices.

• INFRARED COMMUNICATIONS

Infrared (IR) is the method for connecting your phone and PC. Please note that the preferable distance between two devices in an infrared connection is a range of three inches to three feet maximum. There must be no obstructions between the two devices and the IR ports of the two devices have to be pointing at each other.

Your Nokia phone is a Class 1 Laser Product.

Enable infrared communications

Windows Millennium Edition (ME), Windows 2000, and Windows XP (Home or Professional) users do not need to enable infrared communications on their PC prior to using this feature. The infrared port is always active.

If you use Windows 98, you can use the infrared control panel to activate or deactivate infrared communications. Before installing PC Suite, please enable IR communications on your PC.

For more information on enabling infrared communications on your phone, please refer to the infrared section in your phone’s user guide.

Interruptions to infrared communications

Your Windows operating system provides visual and audible notification when it senses an interruption to infrared communications between your phone and PC. Windows allows you to re-establish infrared communications between the two devices so it can resend the data that was being transferred when the interruption occurred.

TIME-OUT

If the infrared connection between your phone and PC has not been re-established within 15 seconds, a “time out” occurs, meaning Windows no longer searches for your phone and terminates the infrared connection.

2 Install Nokia PC Suite 4.85

Nokia PC Suite 4.85 is a collection of powerful tools that you can use to manage your phone’s features and data. PC Suite consists of the following components:

• Nokia Content Copier allows you to copy data between two Nokia phones, to back up your phone’s data to your PC (then restore the data back to your phone), and erase data from your phone.

• Nokia Connection Manager allows you to monitor the serial connection between your phone and PC.

• Nokia PC Composer allows you to create new ringing tones for your phone.

• Nokia PC Sync allows you to synchronize contacts, calendar, and to-do list items between your phone and PIM applications such as Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Organizer.

• Nokia PC Graphics allows you to create new caller group logos and picture messages or allows you to edit pictures (or picture messages) already in your phone.

• Nokia Phone Editor allows you to edit your phone book and settings, and send SMS’s from your PC.

• IMPORTANT NOTE: IR FOR WINDOWS ME AND XP OPERATING SYSTEM USERS

Your phone also functions as a wireless modem and is designed to be detected by Windows Plug and Play.

Plug and Play detection

Because infrared is always active on PCs running ME or XP (including automatic software installation for Plug and Play devices), the Windows Add New Hardware Wizard detects your phone as a new hardware device during the PC Suite installation. This interferes with the PC Suite software installation process.

Before installing PC Suite

Nokia recommends that Windows ME and XP operating system users perform the modem installation prior to installing PC Suite. Please see “Wireless modem setup for Nokia 6590/6590i phone” on page 29 and perform this task prior to installing Nokia PC Suite. Once you have performed the modem installation, you may continue with the installation instructions below.

• PC SUITE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Please download the setup application to a location on your hard drive. If you downloaded the application in segments, please double-click the .exe file and follow the instructions to extract the installer application from the segments.

Important: If you use Windows 98 (First or Second Edition), please enable IR communications on your PC now.

If you have an older version of PC Suite installed on your PC, remove it before installing this version of PC Suite.

Once the software download is complete and/or the segments have been rejoined:

1 Double-click the installation file Nokia PC Suite 4.85.exe that you downloaded to your hard drive.

2 Click Next to accept the location of the temporary installation files, or click Change to select a different location.

3 Click Next to begin the software installation. Please read the end-user license agreement, then click Yes to accept its terms.

4 Review the safety notes, then click Next.

Copy information from the source phone

When you select Copy data from a phone to a PC, Content Copier transfers all compatible data types (phone book, calendar, to-do, caller groups, etc.) from the phone containing the data you want to back up or transfer. This phone is called the “source phone” and can be one of the phones listed on the previous page, or another Nokia 6590/6590i phone.

• If you are copying your phone’s data and want to save it on your PC, Nokia Content Copier guides you through the process of saving the information to your PC’s hard drive.

• If you are copying data from a different source to your Nokia 6590/ 6590i phone, the data must first be saved to your PC. Once you have connected your Nokia 6590/6590i phone (“target” phone) via IR, follow the instructions found below: “Copy information to the target phone”.

Save the source phone data

Once the source phone’s data has been read, you must save the information to your PC’s hard drive. Click the Save Data button, then navigate to the location on your hard drive where you want the information stored.

Nokia Content Copier automatically names the files for you, based on the type of data that is read from the source phone.

Copy information to the target phone

Before you can copy information to the target phone, you need to load the information into the PC’s memory. You should have already saved the source phone’s data to your PC via the Copy data from a phone to a PC option.

1 Launch Content Copier, then click Next.

2 Click Copy data from a PC to a phone then click Next.

The Connect Target Phone box appears.

3 On the Nokia 6590/6590i phone, press Menu 9 to activate the

Infrared mode, then point the phone’s infrared port toward the PC’s infrared port. Make sure the phone and PC are no more than two feet apart.

4 Click Next in the Connect Target Phone box.

The Select Data box appears. This box lets you determine the types of information you want copied into your phone.

5 Click the checkmark to select or deselect the type of data you want to transfer from the PC to your phone.

6 Click the Select source Folder button. Locate the directory containing the information you want to use.

7 Click Next to begin copying data from your PC to your phone.

Nokia Connection Manager

You may need to use Nokia Connection Manager to select the type of connection you want Content Copier to use during various stages of the process. For example, if you copy data from one of the phones listed on the previous page and the source phone requires a serial cable, click Content Copier’s Connection button to launch Connection Manager. Then select the correct cable option for the source phone.

To switch connection type while using Content Copier:

1 Establish the appropriate connection between your phone and PC, then

click the Connection button.

2 Click the desired connection type, then click Select.

3 Allow Nokia Connection Manager to detect your phone.

4 Click OK to return to Nokia Content Copier.

If your phone is not detected right away, switch to one of the other connection types, then back to the desired connection type. This forces Connection Manager to redetect your phone.

Note: If you are copying data from one phone to another and the source phone uses an infrared connection, stop the infrared connection between source phone and PC. Allow the Windows warning message regarding interrupted infrared communications to completely time-out before aligning the target phone with your PC’s infrared port. By doing so, you allow Connection Manager to detect your phone more quickly.

• CREATE RINGING TONES FROM MIDI FILES

Nokia PC Composer allows you to open Standard MIDI files, then convert the data to ringing tone format. Now you can carry your favorite PC MIDI file as a ringing tone in your phone.

About Standard MIDI files

Standard MIDI files of popular music frequently consist of multiple instruments (bass, drums, organ, etc.). Typically, there is also a track dedicated to the song’s melody. There are two types of Standard MIDI files:

• Type 0 files - 1 track of MIDI data containing all the various instruments; each instrument assigned to different MIDI “channel.”

• Type 1 files - each instrument has its own dedicated track and MIDI channel. Track/instrument names are embedded in the file as text information.

PC Composer’s interface interprets the multiple track information and allows you to choose the correct track or instrument.

Important: PC Suite supports Type 1 MIDI files only. PC Suite cannot display the necessary note and instrument data when opening Type 0 MIDI files. If you try to open a Type 0 file, no data is displayed.

Before you begin

If the MIDI sequence you want to use contains too many notes, the following error message is displayed when trying to open the file:

OPEN A STANDARD MIDI FILE

To open a MIDI file:

1 Click the Open button (or select Open from the File menu).

2 Locate the MIDI file you want to use as a ringing tone, then click Open.

3 Use the Track list box’s drop-down arrow and locate the desired track.

4 Click the Convert to Tone button to convert MIDI information to ringing tone format.

Edit and save

You may need to edit the converted MIDI information (adjust note lengths, remove extra rests, etc.) so that the tune plays correctly. For more information on editing a ringing tone, please refer to “Edit a ringing tone” on page 9.

When you have completed editing the ringing tone, you can save your work in ringing tone (.ott) format, then send the new tone to your phone. For more information on saving, please refer to “Save your new ringing tone” on page 10. For more information on sending a ringing tone to your phone, please refer to “Transfer ringing tone to your phone” on page 10.

• WORK WITH RTTTL RINGING TONE FILES

Ringing Tones Text Transfer Language (RTTTL) files are text files that contain various types of information that make up a ringing tone. When your phone receives a ringing tone over the air, your phone is actually receiving the information in RTTTL format. The RTTTL file includes song title, scale and tempo indications, and the actual note information.

An RTTTL formatted ringing tone may appear as follows:

Use RTTTL data from the Internet

The Internet has become a popular source for sharing ringing tones in RTTTL format. If you find a ringing tone Web site displaying the RTTTL data, you can create your own RTTTL files by pasting the data into a text editor program (for example: Notepad), then save the file using the .txt file extension.

PC Composer can open (and save) ringing tones in RTTTL format. Songs you compose in PC Composer can be saved as RTTTL files, then shared with family and friends via e-mail (for example).

Open an RTTTL file

1 Click the Open button (or select Open from the File menu).

2 Click the File of type drop down arrow, then select RTTTL files (*.txt) from the list of available file types.

3 Locate the RTTTL file on your hard drive or other removable disk drive, then double-click the file name to open.

4 Click the Convert track to tone button and convert file to ringing tone format.

You can now send the ringing tone to your phone, edit the ringing tone (as needed) and/or save the ringing tone as .ott (ringing tone) format on your hard drive.
