Nokia PC Suite

If you have a Nokia cell phone, you can now use the Nokia PC Suite to manage and transfer content between your phone and computer.

Nokia is the leading manufacturer of Windows phones. If you have a Windows computer, you can share information between your phone and computer. This lets you carry your schedule with you, check your email, and even manage your email while on the go. Anytime that you make changes or edits on your phone, you'll save that information on your computer too.

As Windows is a Microsoft product, you can also connect your phone to your XBOX One. Each time you unlock achievements and score points with games you play on your phone, you'll see your XBOX game score increase too. Nokia PC Suite is one of the best ways to connect all your devices and get more use out of your phone.

Even if your computer automatically asks if you want to manage content from your phone, you may come across some problems. Your computer's internal management system might not find all files or let you transfer media files to your computer. With Nokia PC Suite, you can do all those things and many more in seconds.

The modern interface tells you when your phone is almost out of available memory and when you need to update your software, and with just one press of a button, you can instantly sync the two devices. This lets you transfer all your media files, photos, contacts, and messages to your computer. Having a backup on your computer will come in handy if your phone fails or you lose it.

Nokia PC Suite will also make recommendations for you based on the content it finds on your phone. It suggests new games you might want to play and new apps that you'll find useful. Once you download the software, you only need to plug your phone into your computer via a micro USB cord.

Each time that you plug in your phone and use the software, it will ask you what you want to sync. Instead of syncing all your content, you can choose to sync just images, messages, contacts, or other files on your phone. It even lets you transfer some of the notes you saved. While it's a great choice for many Nokia users, it doesn't work with all Nokia phones and newer versions exist.
