For PC suite you need to connect in USB PC/Phone mode.If this doesn't work, check the security of the USB connections, especially at the phone end.Otherwise, run the SE update service on your phone to update or re-install the software via PC.

Hi,

thanks for the answer.

So as I understand it

You go to the screen that says USB mode,

then start Sony PC Suite

then connect phone?

Yes, first you make sure that the USB mode in your phone is set to PC/Phone mode, then connect to the PC and then open PC suite and wait for a few seconds until it finds the phone.

You can try phone repair via PC suite--this option is under the Help tab of the PC suite page, and this process will attempt to sort out any software problems and re-install the software.Again, everything needs to be backed up beforehand.

Hi,

I am a little reluctant to do the suggestion as it says it should only be done as a last resort.....

Well you can try a master reset first and failing that, the phone repair.
