My Documents on Storage Card - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I need to default the device and AS to the My Documents folder I create on the storage card. The biggest reason is that several of my clients use the recorder which wants to save to the device rather than the SD....
Thanks in advance!

Why are sound files shown in the notes

Hi!
I use the notes in outlook and mda compact. In outlook i see only the notes i've created, but on the mda i see much more files (sound files from navigator, etc).
What can i do, that the mda shows only the files, which i can see in outlook?
Thanks in advance!

Yup, me too on the MDA
It is very annoyong, haven't figured a work around yet.
i've found a solution:
The device shows all files from the memory card. You must create a "My Documents" folder and delete the file "ignore_my docs" on the card. It should work then...

Two questions
Where do I create the "MyDocuments"= The torage card? and if so, what goes in there?
Also, I cannot find the "Ingnore_my Docs" folder, program, in my storage card?
you have a "My Documents" in the main memory of your device. You must create a folder with the same name on the storage card. What goes in? Nothing in my case, its just to prevent windows to scan the whole memory card.
The file is there but it is marked as hidden. I used resco explorer to remove it - maybe it also works from the desktop (active sync).

OK
Deleted "Ignore my docs" suing active Sync as you said, and I added a "My Documents" folder on the storage card and....still 200 tomtom voice commands in my notes? I did a soft reset, still no go? Any clues
i think this is an OS issue as wav files are shown in notes application, another solution maybe to create an extra folder. maybe another level i.e. transfer your files to \Storage Card\My Documents\TomTom\Commands\
let me know if this works out and if it does not affect your TomTom Software.
Your trick works fine now
It may be that I needed to soft reset, but I did exactly as suggested and voila! thanx

4)when i configure ahome page on my browser its not being saved.
im using WM5.
please help me with those problem step by step .
regards to all.

Can I change the place for storing attachments?

Hi,
this is my problem:
The device memory on my PPC is very low so I enabled the Extended Storage on my device, deleted all the operator cabs and installed some application into it.
The problem is, that this \ExtStorage is shown as a storage card in my explorer. So Pocket Outlook offers to store email attachments only into this place.
What can I do now? Can I change the registry, so that outlook stores the files onto the true SD card?
Or can I disable the Extended Storage and all the shortcuts to the apps there will still work?

SKtools renames Storage Card?

I wanted to store my messages on my Storage Card. So to do this i used SKtools. So far so good. After a soft reset no programs are working anymore.
After some research I found out that my messages indeed were stored @ Storage Card\my messages ...BUT the REAL Storage Card was renamed to Storage Card2. That was the reason programs are no longer working.
I really dont now why SKtools should create a new folder with teh same name. Anyone knows this problem?
It's not SKTools renaming your card, it's your HD2.
I posted a few things about this early on and got no interest or response - you are the first person other than me who has tried this (apparently!).
In the absense of a more definitive answer, I am assuming that the storage card is slow to mount on the HD2, so the system can't find it when initialising mail and so creates it's own 'Storage Card' folder. When the real card is mounted it is therefore named 'Storage Card2'.
As for what to do about it... Well, there is talk dating back a couple of years about delaying the loading of mail applications to give the card a chance to mount, but that dates back to WM5 and WM6 and relates to disabling the mail plugin on the Today Screen. With that in mind I tried checking the Startup Folder and removed the link to poutlook that was in there, but it made no difference.
It may just be another example of where HTC in trying to improve the interface have badly impacted what was a crucial piece of functiuonality for me - the ability to move my mail to the Storage Card. Given the issues being reported with storage space on the device, this is a major pain!
You can at least use the system software to send any attachments to the Storage Card - that works without issue.

[OUTLOOK MAIL STORAGE LOCATION] Can we change it ?

Hey guys,
For some reason I believe the my email cache and downloaded messages are saved in the phone memory ?!
How can i change the storage location of my outlook mail ? as well as another email that I added (not outlook) ?
if you are wanting to free up space by moving attachments you can move it to the storage card.
Start->Email->Highlight the outlook account->menu->options
then select the storage tab and check the box so that the phone will use the storage card for all attachments
Thank you very very much
Move all to mem card

try this cab, I've used it on all my phones with no issues, BUT I dont have a HD2 as yet to confirm.
I have this installed as my first add on cab after a rom update.

Moves all the messages etc onto mem card ie off the main memory.
Save space when like me I have 3 email accounts 6000+emails, plus some attachments, and if anyone asks yes it does take a while to resync after a flash..
cheers

Hello all,
has any of you tried this?
As I have seen some issues with a folder Storage Card2 issue, I'd like a feedback on the Leo/HD2 before trying it...
Basically, I have one mail of 10Mo on the main memory of my phone, stored in the Windows\messaging.
I have gone in the mail menu, options and storage " use Strage card".
I have the folder now on the storage card Inbox.mstxxxxxx.yyyyyy
but nothing in yet...
ie it did not move the existing messages to it yet...
How and when is it supposed to do it?
Sincerely,
vdelab

Ehum, I wouldnt be so sure. That cab adds/changes these two keys:
[HLKLM\System\Inbox\Settings]
AttachPath = "\Internal Storage\Messaging\Attachments"
PropertyPath = "\Internal Storage\Messaging"
Afaik, "Internal Storage" isnt mapped to the Storage Card in any way, at least not on the HD2? Has anyone tried this cab on the HD2? Might work if simply changed to "\Storage Card\Messaging\Attachments" and "\Storage Card\Messaging" respectively?
Use with caution
I would use this with extreme caution. All testing I have done on the HD2 (moving my mail files was one of the first things I tried when I got the device back in November) has suggested that the usual registry hack does not work and will merely create the Storage Card 2 issue. It's easy enough to sort out but it certainly won't move the mail files.
If anyone knows different and has got anything working in this respect please correct me but I believe the HD2 just won't play ball.
For what it's worth, the best guess I have at the problem is that the some element of the mail application is kicking off before the Storage Card is mounted
HTC HD2 Work Around - I assume
The reason y it keeps renaming to Storage Card2 because when you boot your phone, the HTC Home looks for your mails which should be technically in the actual memory card(storage card) once you've tweaked the reg. This happens while the phone is yet to detect the memory card. Due to the unavailabilty of the mem card, it creates a folder in root directorynamed 'storage card' then the phone detects the mem card and renames it to storage card 2 for obvious reasons.
Now the workaround, install all the four cabs for cache, email, etc... and then regedit "HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings" and edit
<parm name="PropertyPath" value="\Outlook\Mail" and "AttachPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments". The mail headers remain in phone memory, so that it can be detected on boot ups and avoids from renamings of storage cards, but the attachment stays in the mem card.
I edited the registry and set "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings\PropertyPath" = "\Storage Card\email\". After the first soft reset, I had the "Storage Card2" problem, so I went into Resco Explorer and moved the "email" directory to "\Storage Card2\email\", then soft reset again. On the 2nd boot, Storage Card is back to being named as Storage Card, and now, all my emails are on the Storage Card instead of internal memory.
I have over 4000 emails with attachments downloaded now without any impact on internal storage space.
-edit-
I'm still getting the "Storage Card2" problem on a few soft resets... I guess the only way is to have the email text on the device and attachments in the Storage Card...

Please could someone advise the cabs information as above RED, thanks in advance.
@ben19
I don't believe your solution is any different to that which can be achieved by setting attachments to be stored on the card from within Pocket Outlook - which is also potentially safer as it doesn't involve a registry hack by the user.
@gregwee
I believe you will be stuck with the Storage card 2 issue until someone manages to crack the fact that the HD2 seems to load up email before it mounts the card. You are therefore correct in that having mail in main memory and attachments in the card is about the best we can do for now.
@apieceofcake
For the reasons above, I don't think any CAB will address the fundamental issue so my advice would be not to bother and simply set your attachments to be stored on the card
I would love to see a cab-file that could move all messages (not only headers) to my storage card as default.
Bit of a joke. its a Windows based product, need to get all my Outlook mail. Internal memory is now full. Have nothing else on the bloody phone except for 2 apps. Need help with this urgently as I can't put up with this much longer!

FYI
pocket mechanic can relocate Outlook emails to your sd card, hope that helps.
Thanks S21s20! Have you confirmed it works for the HTC HD2?
