Nokia PC Suite does not work on Windows 10

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?

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.

I installed Win10 and my phone is an excellent Nokia 808 Pureview.

Nokia Suite was earlier in Win7 64-bit, able to syncronize dedicated files like Calender, Contacts, Phonebook, Music, Pictures, Videos according to my wishes.

With Win10 it is not possible to syncronize.

 The phone goes into PCSuite-mode but Win10 does not start PC Suite.

Win10  does not recognize the Nokia 808 Pureview with the USB-cable.

However, it is possible to COPY files to the PC.

MANUALLY.

But that is not at all SYNCRONIZING.

The possibility for syncronizing via Bluetooth is limited to Outlook-items. Not pictures or videos.

The problems described above really surprised me, as this is not Android- nor Apple-units I try to sync with.

It is all about Microsoft units.

Microsoft-Nokia, nothing else.

So when is the problem solved, Microsoft?

Maybe the Symbian OS has out lived its usefulness and Microsoft / Nokia is not implementing any new

connectivity software for its systems, try https://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle?LN=en-us. This may help

connect the dots on why some OS is not working with some programs.
