Aximsitesoftwareicon Restoring X51v contacts file...?

I coppied my contacts file (PIM.VOL) to my PC before I flashed my X51v. Now, when I try to copy it back, I get an error that the source or destination file is in use... how do I copy it back?

I know the simple answer is to AS them back in, but the desktop I synced with (the only one in the house with MS OUtlook on it) became a file server and is housed in the bacement ceiling between floors.... so it's VERY awkward to use...

Any solution? Any way to simply copy all my contacts from my MotoQ (which were synced with the axim list)? can I somehow BT them over??

Using file explorer, rename pim.vol to some other name, e.g. pimold.vol. After that, copy your backup pim.vol over. Soft-reset and you're done.
