Hi there! I've been using my mobile for the last year to txt updates and photos to parents. I've got 5 mindees, so thats a lot of messages! Now can't get any apps to run on my phone cos there is no memory space. Does anyone know if I can get the messages off my phone and store them on the PC so that when SCSWIS come to inspect I can show them? I take the photos off and upload them to a digital photo frame, just don't know how to upload the txt messages. (I've an HTC Wildfire)
Thanks

I have a nokia. It came with a lead to connect it to the pc and am able to transfer texts that way.

Hi. I think you just need a data cable like this one:

2.99 on amazon

Just plug it into your Pc and away you go. That's what I do to get photos of my HTC sensation.

Not sure if this would be suitable or not, though may be worth a try.

There is an app called Call Log Calendar which integrates with Google Calendar. Once they are on your Google Calendar, you can then access that via a PC and could search for text phrases if needed.
The app has a free trial version, so worth a try to see if it will be useful, or not.

There is an app that automatically backs up any texts to email, called SMS back up +. I have it and it works a treat :)
