Hi,

i have a cellphone  Nokia 6300 and Nokia PC Suite does not work on Windows 10 32-bit.

When i connect cellphone and PC via USB cable,PC doesn't recognize it at all.

From another side,PC Suite works fine on Windows 7 32-bit.

PC Suite version is 7.1.180.94. I have tried another version too ( 3.8.54 ) but it's the same thing.

Use Mass memory or Media transfer mode instead of the default Nokia Suite USB mode. Change the mode in the phone menu Settings > Connectivity > USB. This will let you copy files between the phone and Windows 10.

If you want to sync data to Nokia Suite, try connecting the phone and Windows 10 via the Bluetooth connection instead of USB (if Bluetooth is supported by your PC). If the Bluetooth connection is properly established, you can use it for connecting and syncing your phone with Nokia Suite.

    For some reason I did not give up the "Bluetooth track" for syncronizing.

    And I'm back on track again. But with Win7Pro64-bit, not Win10. (Which I for some reason liked !!)

    I'll try to recap my procedure if it useful for others with a similar problem:

    1. Uninstalled Win10
    2. Reinstalled Win7Pro64bit
    3. Uninstalled/Reinstalled NokiaSuite
    4. Reinstalled the Bluetooth Adapter programs and Adapter Drivers for my PC. (Win7, not Win8.x)
    5. I added a new Bluetooth Unit = Nokia808Pureview
    6. Waited for at least 2 hours (!), while my PC was working with Windows Update via Internet for all the correct BluetoothDrivers. (Yes, I have a 125/125 Mbs Fiber Network at home!!)

    RESULT:

    1. I am still not able to use the USB Cable.
    2. But now I am able to syncronize (the way I prefer to "transfer data") via Bluetooth.

    Anders, I doubt Microsoft is able to fix this because they laid off too many people in the past. Or said differently: The knowledge might have vanished within Microsoft. Therefore, did you consider to go for the workaround via a Bluetooth USB adapter?

    Thanks Abi99, nowadays I use the 808Pureview as a still/videocamera , as it is far better than my Sony Xperia Z3Compact. And I also use it as a Navigator when I am abroad. So I need to download various maps for my trips to use them locally on the phone. (No cost for navigating abroad)

    So  I really need the syncronizing-function. I know how to copy files between the Phone<-->PC. That works.

    But I like to syncronize, which is smoother.

    I uninstalled the Windows 10 and took a step back, to the Win7Pro 64-bit again.

    But only finding, that the functionality of Nokia Suite is gone, I even uninstalled and reinstalled NokiaSuite.

    The problem is that NokiaSuite on the PC, does not recognize the 808Pureview in "NokiaSuite-mode" when the USB Cable is connected. (The other three modes seems to be recognized).

    In spite of the phone goes automatically into "NokiaSuite-mode", when the USB Cable is inserted.

    I have tried the Bluetooth-workaround, but it ended up in a possibilty for file transfer only.

    Not syncronizing.

    The syncronizing did not worked at all for me.

    Have you managed to get the sync to work in Bluetooth mode?
