Upgrading (Backing up) MicroSD Cards?

[ISiCK]

So i used to have an old 4gb MicroSD card for my Raphael. I just recently bought a 8gb. What i was wondering, how can i make an identical backup of my 4gb and load it to my 8gb so all my games and programs still work?

Just copy all the contents to your pc, then to the new card. It's easier with a card reader than doing it over active sync. I've hard to re-format my 16g card many times, and that's what I do.

i actually just did that, the problem is only my pictures and music transferred over. All my games and apps that i installed onto my card dont work =(

I actually had a similar problem once with a bunch of free ebooks that I downloaded from tor; I couldn't copy them to save my life off of my old pda. Fortunately, it had two card slots, so I installed total commander on the device (hadn't had it before), and transferred the books to a new micro sdhc card in a sd card adaptor from the cf card that they were loaded on. Then I transferred that to my fuze. I would suggest trying to use the ftp plugin of total commander to transfer to your desktop. With that said, I have NO IDEA IN HELL how to use the ftp plugin of total commander. You could probably do it as well with resco explorer. You're on your own, but it shouldn't be that hard to figure this stuff out.

One other option is to try sprite or sk tools backup (or something similar). Some backup apps have the option of backing up your sd card. I always thought it was kind of silly, because where in the hell do you store it, if your card is nearly full? Who knows, maybe if you sync to a pc, it will automatically store the backup on the pc. Or, delete all the stuff that you can transfer to the pc, run the backup (and store it on the card), then copy everything to the new card and do a restore.
