Installing applications and software
Important: Only install and use applications and other software from sources that offer adequate security and
protection against harmful software.
You can install two types of applications and software to your device:
• Applications and software specifically intended for the Nokia 9300i or compatible with the Symbian operating system. These
software installation files have the extension .SIS.
• J2ME applications 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 9300i 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," p. 66.
If you install applications that require a network connection, note that the power consumption of your device may increase
when you use these applications.
