Are there any other Mac users out there with XDA II's or is it just me.
If there's anyone else, have you guys tried PocketMac or MissingSync yet ?

Hello. I am using a mac! I am new to PPC, I switched from a P900
I am using pocketmac, It works great. I need to figure out how to use this as a bluetooth modem.
Matthew
im on a mac (ibook g4 12 inch) and i love it
i was a pc user for the last 12 years till i got the ibook, and as its going right now, my next pc will probably be a dual g5
anyways...
sucks microsoft doesnt make sync software for it, but ms did buy a shipement of g5s recently for testing virtual pc, so who knows.
i dont care to sync my phone with entourage or anything, my phone #s are stored on my sim card, and i use a sandisk cruzer to transfer music to it
i have used pocketmac 2.0 demo, and its cool, but it wont let u use the xda 1 as a modem, so its pretty worthless for me
dunno... my 2 cents thow.

What about installing apps from a mac ?
According to Pocket Mac, they provide an app which extracts .cab files from the .exe files which you download as installer files for PC's. Does this cab extractor work every time ?
I'm currently using my daughter's PC to install apps and I have to say, ActiveSync blows bigtime, so I really need to dump the PC connection and setup a Mac one !!

I can not install the Apps from my Mac, I need to use my PC
syncing with missingsync on mac
Anyone get missing sync to work on the mac? So far we cannot get the Qtek 2020 to be recognized on powerbook g4 17" as a volume in isync so missingsync can do its thing. Cradle doesn't seem to work nor does usb cable.
Any help would be appreciated.

i've been using pocket mac for over a year now. the new version is great. i'm running an original xda, not the 02.
QUESTION FOR THE AMERICANS HERE: where did you guys get your xda 02s? i'm really interested in getting one. of course my wife want me to sell the p900 i just bought first...uggghhhhh.
Yes, but has anyone actually install .exe files on the XDA WITHOUT using a PC and only using the supplied CAB extractor ??

Hi is there any free software out their that allows me to see my M1000 screen on my pc and to control it using my mouse etc.
thanks
Tim
OMG :roll:
What if people did some searching?!
VNC should meet all of your requirements..
oh my god i did try searching but couldnt find anything.
so does VNC work down the usb connection in the cradle then?
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&q=pocketvnc&btnG=Google-søgning&meta=
here is pocketvnc
it works using activesync dont matter if you sync using bluetooth or usb or wifi or serial or 2 cans with string between
Rudegar, youre so much kinder than me..
too right he is
Usually, I provide some kind of search result myself..
But I was in a bad mood, and busy playing Worms on my Himalaya..
So I only gave the simple solution..
Rudegar does a great job, as allways..

But you guys got it wrong...
He wants to see his PPC screen on his PC! (Not the PC screen on the PPC with something like VNC...)
Microsoft Remote Display Control (google for it or search the MS site) is your friend, timb551.
cheers SiliconS just the ticket.
The 2 versions of worms i tried didnt run for me *coughs*(warez)

This may sound numb but how do we undertsand if a computer has service pasck 2 installed? I am asking this because I am using w2000 and planning to do the upgrade to 2005 by using one of my friends laptop. Or is it possible to upgrade through w2000?
Thanks in advance...
a bit cunfused there
there is a os called pocketpc 2000 it's very old
and no himalaya device have ever come with it installed they come with
WM2003
there is an os called windows 2000 it's workstion and server based
and came before XP it's current service pack is 4 i believe
any himalaya device can be upgraded to 2005 as far as i know
so if you are talking about the MW servicepack which is included in
1.72 then i would not worry too much
ok let me explain.
I bought an T Mobile MDA II yesterday and it is on the way from Germany to Sweden now. Since I am totally new to this, I am trying to read all the things that I can that is relevant to ugrading my MDA II ROM to 2005. I think I figured out how to do it, but the only problem I have is that I do not have a PC (not moble ) installed XP on it. All I have is a PC which has windows 2000 running on it. I am asking is it possible to upgrade my MDAII to 2005 using my PC which has Windows 2000 on it.
Since according to the instructions of buzz to upgrade to 2005, the PC that you are using should have XP with a service pack 2 installed. I got a friend who has a laptop with the XP installed but I do not know if this laptop has SP2 installed. So the second question is how can I undersatnd if a computer has SP2 installed.
Thanx...
if activesync works then the upgrade works
if activesync works (i'm sure it does) you can check on activesync's site at ms
or try it out
Thanks Rudegar,
I have just installed the AcvtiveSync to my machine that has w2000 on it. It seems that it is working. Now waiting for my machine to arrive :lol:

if you want to know if it is sp2(winxp) installed...right click the ''my computer''>''properties''
you can upgrade to sp2(winxp) for free, just simply click the "windows update'' in your pc.
you can install the AS4 to win2k / 2k3 / winxp but i don't think if you can sync(wm5) it but not all...just try it.
hello
I use a distro of linux mepis 3.3.1 and run Win4lin 9x with windows 98 as the platform though I don't seam to sync through the serial... I connect it up and both devices start to sync then my XDA IIi says its connected where the activesync says not connected and doesn't work.
Any one tried activesync on win4lin and had any luck?
thanks
OR
Does any one use linux and use a good programme allowing sync with programes like Kmail??
Please let me know this is driving me mad.
thank you
googled this in a flash
http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/
Yeah I found this, just wondered if anyone had tried one thats all becuase if it works I will d/l it but if no one knows then I will try.
Mostly want some one else to have tried it as the KDE version Kitchen requires compiling and that can be a pain.
but thank you any how.
Is there any VNC software avilable for the XDA Mini S? I would like to connect to my XDA Mini S from my PC to take screenshots and control it.

I have not tried this on the Wizard (currently waiting for one) but I have used SOTI Pocket Controller extensively on many PocketPCs over the years. I find it much better than the MS tool. Not free but not expensive.
www.soti.net
(I have no connection with SOTI)
I use the attached tool for quite a while now, on wm2003, 2003se and wm5 devices, it works great.
I got it somewhere overhere i believe, so the credits go someone else..
copy the 2577 folder to the root of your storage card,
then eject, and insert the card, the first time the device will
ask if you want to run autorun, and you do, so, accept it.
from now on every time you insert your storage card, it will make a
screenshot in that folder 2577, no matter what screen you are in or app.
you are running (for as far as i know then)
good luck with it !
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone, in the end I manage to grab a copy of Pocket-Controller Professional
Hello friends. I am waiting to buy the HD Blackstone here in Greece. I am a Mac user Mac OSX 10.5.5 (Leopard) and as i have read in the net no one has a working 100% way of synchronizing. Does anyone used a way to sync the HD successfully yet? Thank's a lot
http://www.markspace.com/
This is working fine with my HD as it has done with all my Windows Mobiles..
I can confirm it works great with missing sync under OS X
You can aswell install cab files from it.
You mean with Missing Sync for Windows Mobile? But in the supported devices there is only HTC touch. Did you try sync mate?

it works with all the windows mobile 6. it is just a standard program that run on your mac.
It will require to install a cab file on your phone.
I've tried it with HTC touch Diamond, Treo 750 & Kaiser.
Haven't tried with the touch HD as I don't have it.
Very tempted to buy it but still love my iphone 3G.
cab file? Thank you!

yup, once you connect to the software, it will push a cab file to be installed.
It is straight forward.
Thank you again mate!
sync htc with mac os x
can anybody suggest a free sync for htc mobiles with mac os x?
Thanks inadvance
Use SyncMate (Freeware) or
SyncMate Expert.
Much better than missing sync !!!
Your pocketpc connects on internet via usb or wifi as simple as activesync connection...
I agree, SyncMate is probably the best way to go.
I have only tried the free version and it takes like 3 hours to sync a couple GB worth of music so it might be worth it to pay the $10 USD for it.
Missing Sync has a couple nice features but costs $40 USD. I tried out missing sync and it messed up all of my system settings such as ringtones and notification settings, etc. It is nice though because there is an option to convert any .m4a files to a type that is readable by your phone where SyncMate doesn't have that option.
I have also tried DoubleTwist which is supposed to be nice and it is free. It completely messed up my phone though and I ended up having to format both my phone and SD card to correct it.
try syncmate
