  1. Is there a special driver to connect to Windows 7 with this phone? I just got this phone and since it does not use a Sim card I can't get all my pics off my old phone onto this one. So then I got a memory card but when I plug the phone into the USB of my Windows 7 it does nothing and the phone says the USB is not connected when it is. Everything else works in that same USB port and the cord charges the phone so nothing is wrong with the cord. All I can figure is the phone is not compatible with 64 bit computers operating systems. Wish I would have known this BEFORE I bought this phone! :(
