Okay, here's a good one...

My Toshiba e800 is going back to the supplier tomorrow, as the screen has some dead pixels. :cry:

It's only taken me a week to get everything installed and configured! My question is - is there any software that will enable me to backup my device before I return it, and then restore onto the new device when it arrives?

The backup in ActiveSync has complained about different devices before, even when restoring onto the same device, so I certainly don't trust that!!

I have a copy of Proporta ProBackup - does anyone know if I will be able to use this on the new device? Or failing that, is there something else that will to the job?

Thanks in advance,

DF

Sprite Pocket Backup will probably handle this for you...although you might end up having to do some finagling to get it to put the backup on the new device.

However, I do believe you'd be able to pull it off with this tool.
