Motorola 375 unable to charge phone through computer or download photos-managed to find a usb cable and even though phone brochure said i did not need a driver to access computer i am unable to do so

Motorola sells a software package for managing their phones, including the transfer of pictures and music from and to the devices as "Motorola Phone Tools". Data cables are included.

They charge an IMHO quite hefty price of nearly US$50 for the software.

buy another phone

You need a USB cable and a program called Motorola Phone Tools to download the photos, or use Bluetooth if your PC has it. MPT is a program you have to buy from Motorola

its simple, just open your phone[dont let it closed] and plug your cable..
then your screen will shows something, and your comp will appear to install new device, just cancel it..
then go to 'my computer' and you might see your phone drive there

Hi are the photos on a external memory card. If so use a card reader and transfer the photos to the computer that way. I do this all of the time with mine. Good luck,

with motorola phone tools

you will need motorola phone tools in order to transfer photos and music to your phone. and for information, your phone can only have 1.5mb memory therefore it wont hold much pictures

You do not need a driver to transfer photos to/from your phone by USB, but you DO need the driver to charge by USB.

Get the driver from www.motorola.com

To connect via USB to transfer files, make sure the phone is idle with the home screen showing, then connect directly to your computer (do not use a hub). It might take a short while for the phone to connect. You will see a message on the phone's screen asking if you want to connect external storage, press yes & wait again. Eventually the phone's screen will go white with black text telling you you cannot not the phone for anything else while you are connected to the computer. When you see this message, click on MY COMPUTER on your computer & you will see, along with your C drive & any other drives you have installed a device called MS DEVICE. Click on this and you're into your phone & there are 2 folders, one for pictures & one for audio. You can also drag & drop small mp3 files into the audio folder and use them as ringtones. You will need to make these files short, mono & low quality (40kbps is about best) in order to store them on this phone, which has a tiny memory & no slot to add a card to increase it.

If you get the driver (which you only need for USB charging, nothing else) then when you connect & the phone asks if you want to use external storage and you click "no" the phone will start to charge via the USB. This can sometimes take longer than using the regular mains power supply & only works when the computer is switched on.
