Hi Tristram,
 
If you have the latest version of the Nokia PC Suite, you don't have to stop
the service, which incidentally was called Service Layer.  You can now right
click the sys tray item, and select exit from the Nokia Suite Tray.  I have
had no problems at all with audio while PC Suite was running.  Do you have
an old machine, or sound card?
 
As for Syncing, I use both cable and Bluetooth without problems at all.  I
sync to Outlook 2003, and it works like a charm.  Using Bluetooth, I can
sync anywhere in the house.
 
Again, to say the suite is not screen reader friendly, is not really true,
if you do a little mousing.  It works better with Window-Eyes than JFW,
because with JFW, you have to keep popping in and out of JAWS cursor,
whereas with WE, you have the live mouse of course.
 
All the best

I never found Nokia PC suite worked very well with the Nokia phones, nor is
it especially Jaws or generally screen reader friendly.  If you do music
sequencing or editing I would strongly recommend either not using it on the
same machine or terminating it's running before contacting any suport
regarding audio glitching, as it creates dreadful disruption to audio in
these sorts of applications.  You will have to stop a process running, I
cannot remember what it is called though.  
 
The Nokia suite scored in my humble opnion only slightly better than the
software supplied with some of the Sony-Ericssons .  I should point out in
all fairness that in both cases I was attempting to use Bluetooth which in
truth is an extra complication.  If you need to sync info between the phone
and the PC however do it with a cable and PC suite, there isn't a better
choice unless someone more knowledgeable can suggest an alternative.

I've had Nokia phones from the year dot, and have never had
any problems in this regards.

Hi all, I seem to recall someone posting some time ago that
one should think twice before installing Nokia PC Suite
since it is very hard to get rid of.

Using JFW 7, XP Home with SP2.

Your experiences please.

Thanks

Deon
