Installing applications and software
Important: Only install applications from sources that offer adequate protection against harmful software.
You can install two types of applications and software to your device:
• Applications and software specifically intended for the Nokia 9500 Communicator or compatible with the Symbian
operating system. These software installation files have the extension .SIS.
• J2ME™ compatible with the Symbian operating system. The Java™ application installation files have the extensions .JAD
or .JAR.
Installation files may be transferred to your device from a compatible computer, downloaded during browsing, or sent to
you in a multimedia message, as an e-mail attachment, or with Bluetooth. If you use PC Suite for Nokia 9500 Communicator
to transfer a file, save the file in the C:\nokia\installs folder in your device. If you use Microsoft Windows Explorer to transfer a
file, save the file on a memory card (local disk).
During installation, the device checks the integrity of the package to be installed. The device shows information about the
checks being carried out, and you are given options to continue or cancel the installation.
See Certificate manager on page 76.
Installing Symbian software
When you install an update or repair to an application, you must have the original or a full backup to restore the application.
To restore the original application, remove the application, and install it again from the original installation file or the
backup copy.
