Can anyone help. I am using Mobile Phone tools 3.11 with a Motorola
v400,usb cord. I can't transfer my pictures from the phone to my computer/ I
get a message saying(Error on line7, position 26) A semi colon character was
expected. Both Motorola and Cingular have no idea of that to do with this or
how to fix it.

In my experience the '&' symbol causes this problem most of the time.
Rename any pics with special characters in their names, and also make sure
you don't have any excessively long names.
