Nokia PC Suite not backing up MMC card on 6600

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.nokia (More info?)

As far as I know pc suite backs up your phone memory. If you want to make a
copy of your mmc, install epoc file manager on your pc and you'll see far
more than with pc suite, you see everything (as with seleq installed in your
phone). You sellect the entire content of your mmc and store somewhere on
your pc.
