I have a Siemens SL45 that I am having problems transferring MP3's onto.

The software is set up on a Dell notebook  using Com port 1. I can
communicate with the phone enough to add contacts and meetings via the
software. But, when I attempt to transfer MP3's into the MP3 folder the file
only gets part of the way complete when it brings up an error saying "The
connection was lost make sure the phone is connected etc.". A temp file of
the MP3 then appears in the MP3 folder.

 I am not receiving any calls or SMS's when this happens.

I have got the most recent software from the Siemens site.

I have been able to transfer a couple of small files to the phone (about 1.5
megs) but it took about 10 attempts. So the transfer is working it just
seems to be very unstable.

In addition the IR port (when I choose it instead of COM port 1)is not
communicating with the phone. The computer sees it (ie. Siemens SL45 in IR
range is displayed) but the phone does not acknowledge the computers. IR is
enabled on the phone and the 1 way IR symbol is displayed on the phone
screen, but it does not show the 2 way communication symbol.

I have tried other COM ports without success. In addition I have tried
altering the COM port settings in the control panel (such as flow control
and data speed.)

I am finding this extremely frustrating and Siemens don't seem to be in a
huge hurry to help me out so your advice would be great.
