Memory low—free memory
The device notifies you if the device or the memory card
memory is low.
To free device memory, transfer data to a compatible
memory card, if you have one. Mark files to be moved, and
select
Move to folder
>
Memory card
, and a folder.
You can also transfer media files to a compatible PC, for
example, using the transfer option in
Gallery
. See ‘Back-up
files’, p. 33.
Tip! You can use Nokia Phone Browser available in
Nokia PC Suite to view the different memories in your
device and transfer data.
To remove data to free memory, use
File mgr.
, or go to the
respective application. For example, you can remove the
following:
• Messages from
Inbox
,
Drafts
, and
Sent
folders in
Messag.
• Retrieved e-mail messages from the device memory
• Saved web pages
• Saved images, videos, or sound files
• Contact information
• Calendar notes
• Downloaded applications. See also ‘Application
manager’, p. 113.
• Any other data that you no longer need
After you install applications to a compatible memory
card, installation files (.sis) remain in the device memory.
The files may use large amounts of memory and prevent
you from storing other files. To maintain sufficient
memory, use Nokia PC Suite to back up installation files to
a compatible PC, then use the file manager to remove
installation files from the device memory. See ‘File
manager’, p.18. If the .sis file is a message attachment,
delete the message from the messaging inbox.
