I've two old phones with photos and phone numbers on them. One is working, one is not. I'm with Vodafone and was with these two phones too. Don't want to recycle them with phone numbers and photos on them if there is a way to transfer them to my new phone. Any idea how to do it please? Techno phobe here!!

have you a card reader on your computer???? if so take out the memory card and stick it in yr computer and you should be able to download any pics form yuor old phone, I did this last week with DH's really old phone and I got emotional with all the fab pic os the boys when they were babies, I was melting looking at them!!!!

If you dont have a card reader to take the memory card you will have to buy a card adapter, basically your memory card fits inside this and you insert the card adapter into the card reader on your computer IYKWIM!!!! HTHS!!!!

Ah thanks a mill Bosco. Knew there had to be a way to do it...like you had some nice ones and didn't want to loose them. Don't think we have one but will ask around if we can borrow one from a friend or buy one if necessary. Thanks again so much.
