Hey Dude.....you need not save those files on your PDA you need to connet you imate to you pc and then double click them on your PC and install.
i think this should work.

Hi All,
Newbie here so please be nice :wink:
I have only had my XDA Mini for a few weeks now and have just tried to copy files from the PC straight to the storage card via Activesync. I open Activesync and click on 'File' then 'Explore'. The explorer window opens but I get this message...
"Critical communications services have failed to start. Try resetting the mobile device, and then connect again."
I have reset the mini and rebooted my PC many times but it has made no difference. What does it mean and how do I fix this problem?
I believe this is an issue with the built in XP firewall... Install another firewall, disable the built-in one and try again.
Hi,
I have the problem as well from time to time. As an alternative I found out, that you can place files in \My document\<Device name>_Syncronised Files (or similar, sorry I use the german version). If you acitivate ActiveSync feature of syncing files, these files will be transfered to the device. You cannot access the memory card this way but at least you can transfer files even if the 'Explore' funtion is not working.

Thanks Guys.
Marco, I have been downloading via My Documents without any problems. The problem here is that I am limited to the memory on my device. I need to download straight to the Storage Card as the files are larger then the internal memory.
Sunoke, ill try the Firewall thing and see how I go.

You can do that either by:
Downloading the .cab file to your pc, and then using active sync to move the file to the phone and installing it from there, or download the installation file and then use ActiveSync to install it on your phone (that's the recommended method, because if you need to blow your phone away and reinstall, you can just plug the phone back into the pc and reinstall programs easily.
I have no idea what is happening with my blue angel everytime i try to install sth i get error: instalation of(name of cab file) was unsuccessful. And the second problem is with activesync - i cant sync my BA with PC but I can explore my BA through it.
what do you exactly tryin to install to your BA? please specify it.. not always any applications compatible to our wm6'ed BA
ok: resco explorer 2007, card export II spb pocket plus wibar & a lot of different appz

Your first task should be to set right ActivSync as that plays a vital role in transfering files to BA. Uninstall existing version on PC and install a fresh 4.5 or later version. Then connect BA to PC through USB, PC should recognize your BA and ask for partnership. Go and finish that. Once you have a clean installation of activsync on pc and you have establised the partnership between pc and BA thru ActivSync, try to synch your data with PC.
Your next step should be to install programs. Create a folder "Cabs" on Storage card and through explore of ActivSyc, copy cabs to this folder. Later on, look a the files through File Explorer and double click each cab file to install them.
Hard reset helped with both problems.

hello,
i have a problem: I'm not able to copy files from my X1 to WinXP.
I have the cellphone USB connected and activeSync is on, which allows me to browse through my x1 folders. But everytime i try to copy/paste files (to backup) to my computer, a message says copy&convert files but then i get nothing but an empty folder on my pc.
Anyone who knows how to fix the issue??
thx for any help,
greetings!

I have the same problem too,need help!! anyone knows how to fix this?thanks for any help.
Have you tried disabling file conversion?
Go to Activesync on PC then click Tools -> Advanced Tools -> Edit File Conversion Settings and uncleck the tick box.
If you are trying to copy files from the memory card then the best way is to put the device in Disk Drive mode. Connect device then click Start->Settings->Connection tab->USBtoPC->Disk Drive
I encountered this the other day, I think you can only copy files from the SD card to PC on the phone using active sync.
If however, if you want to copy files from your phone's internal memory, to your PC, i used a differnt program to do this, think it was either called 'My Mobiler' or 'Jeyo Mobile something' so try those programs!
I find ActiveSync to be an extremely poor program, I recommend using 3rd party apps to get full control over your phone!
I tried to use 3rd party application such as my mobiler, still encounter the same problem,any other ways?what the main problem that make this happen?help anyone?
Hi Everyone,
New member here. First timer to WM phones. Bought the Hermes 2 months back, which came upgraded with WM6., but since then unable to connect to PC. Device not detected via ActivSync 4.5. Also downloaded some software from http://www.htcfreeware.com/ , but , some ( Like Skype ) dont install , message " This is not a PPC software " , any tips ?
pretty much all exe you download for ppc are exe files for the pc not the ppc
when you get installl programs for ppc they are called cab
the exe files are pc programs which using activesync install the cab on the ppc
if you try to run a pc progra on a ppc you get the error msg
" This is not a PPC software "
sometimes one can on the pc rename the exe to zip as many are just selfextracting zip files
and then manualy copy out the cab file
