Hi,
I have this problem, whenever I try to install any softwares into my jasjar, the jas jar responds, it will ask me if I want to install it on my device or storage card. then I already tried to click on either my device or storage card, but the same message always appear "name of the software cannot be intalled. to try install again to a different location, choose a location:
Device
Storage Card
then, I choose either one again, but this message appear again and again.
I do not understand what happen, because before there is no problem at all.
Can anybody please give me suggestions. Thanks. I appreciate your helps
Have you installed the program once before? Then uninstalled it? Is it an upgrade?
Or is this a completely fresh install ?

Hi All,
I have an I-mate jasjar, This is the first time i tried installing applications to Storage Card (1GB), when ever i tried to install using Activesync 4.0, It doesnt ask me which folder to install i.e Like Default or Storage Card. And also If i click Add/Remove Programs in Activesync 4.0, I find that the checkbox "install program into the default installation folder" is checked and disabled. Hence I am unable to change it. Find the below image for the same.
Please can some one help me on this, on how to resolve the same.
Regards,
Francis.
Hi Francis,
1. Try inserting a bit smaller memory card (may be 512).
2. check if the momory card is not locked physically.
3. At the lowest, try to hard reset, but keep the memory card inside the i-mate while it install the windows. IMP: dont forget to backup important files before rebooting.
GoodLuck

First of all get Active Sync 4.1 from here...
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync41.mspx
On WM5 devices like Universal and Wizard I think you choose the location on the device, so you just install to 'default folder' from activesync and when it gets to the phone instead of then going ahead and installing it gives you the choice, phone or storage card.
On 2003SE Windows Mobile, you did have to choose the location on your pc in active sync and when it went to your device it went where you sent it.
Hi,
Mine is a MMC Card, so i dont think it can be locked Physically, also i dont have a smaller card to check whether it works. May be i can try your last option, but i have lot of sms, which will be lost.
Regards,
Francis.
Thanks a lot
As mentioned, whenever I tried to install the application in the PPC it ask me where to install. Thanks a lot !!!
Regards,
Francis.
Did you find out how to load a program to an SD card in the Universal? I want to know too, please.
Whenever I install an application I see a message saying: "This is from a unknown developer, do you still want to install? Press YES or NO." This is the only message I see, no option to install it to the SD card.
Any suggestions please?
Can anyone confirm if cabinstl does anything on WM5?
Its dialog pops up, but then I get the normal WM5 dialog then asking for a destination a second time.
I think I may have confused cabinstl by adding the following registry keys:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apps\Microsoft Application Installer]
"fAskOptions"=dword:00000001
"fAskDest"=dword:00000001
which will force the Wm5 installer to ask for a destination. This may be useful to those who aren't getting this dialog by default.
However, I want my MTV. And cabinstl. Working. Properly.

yes, install it from active sync instead, remove it, install again until it workes... then update to 1.5.. it workes like a charm..
I did install from Activesync i think. How do you mean? I can't complete the installation, and when i try to remove it, my device hangs. After a soft reset, it seems like the program has been removed.
What's the correct proceedure for installing it?
Cheers
When I try to install it, i'm told to do it to main memory, which I do. Then the installation tells me that i chose to install it to "" instead of main memory. The installation doesn't finish due to an "unrecoverable error", and I can't uninstall it without a restart.
Does anyone else have these problems? How did you get round it?
Has no-one else had this problem?
Yep, I simply loaded v1 then deleted from PDA. Installed v1.5 got the error message but it still loaded. Try loading it a couple of times.
Note it works fine from the SD card too.

When I load V1, i can't seem to uninstal it properly. The uninstall just hangs right at the end. After a soft reset, it doesn't appear in the add/remove programs list, but when i try to install V1.5, it won't because an older version is still on my device.
Any ideas?
why not use the built in voice recog software? voice dialling and application launching works fine
Did you get this resolved? I'm having the exact same problem and cannot get 1.0 completely removed.
Nope, the problem persisted after a hard reset. I can't understand what's going wrong. I have an XDA Mini S if that makes any difference...
Ahhhhhhh
I was forced to hard reset my K-JAM and am now having HORRIBLE problems.
Programs like Resco File Explorer and Omega 1-calc which DID install before now won't install.
Get a Cannot be installed error message.
I am tearing my hair out guys.
Anyone have any ideas WHY this is happening?
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!
Robin
What error exactly? Did you remove the security restrictions etc prior to installing?
V
What security restrictions?
I get a message asking if I want to continue, I say Yes.
It asks for a location, I tell it (storage card).
It starts to install then says cannot install try another location, I HAVE tried the other location (Internal) it does not work either.
However ALL of these programs HAD installed on this machine before I had to reset it!!!!!!
I just cannot figure out what is going wrong as SOME applications have installed fine.
SPB Pocket, SplashID etc.........
Cheers.

Hi All
Is there no-one that can throw any light on my problem?
I am desperate to get some of these apps working again but just cannot get them to install????
Robin
Had the same problem. Just soft-reset your device and retry.

Installation problems.....
I am having the same problem too.
Even after a hard reset when I try and install Sprite Backup & Agenda Fusion I keep getting the install error: 'cannot be installed, try another location'
It's driving me up the wall! I would have thought after a hard reset this wouldn't be an issue. I'm now the proud owner of an MDA Pro (Universal) that I can't use because the software I want to install won't install.
Can anyone help me please?
I have had many pocket PC's and the Universal w/WM5 is the only one that gives me consistant installation problems. I had listpro 3.0 installed in program memory. I uninstalled it with the intent of re-installing it on the SD card. Unchecking it from activesync did nothing. Removing from the ppc directly told me that all of the file were not removed. I saw the the folder still existed in program files, do I deleted the directory and shortcuts pointing to it. I have had this exact same problem MANY times
Am I the only one with this problem? I don't find any messages like this.
Next, I try to reinstall listpro and it won't reinstall :x I get a message cannot be installed, try another location (which does not work). Do I need a hard reset? I tryed installing another program and I can still install other stuff, but the removal did not work again.

Hi Gary!
I have a lot of experience in this sh*t. WM5 cannot uninstall or install in a lot of cases. Usually if you still have some files or folders which are on the same location than with the installation, installer says: cannot install. In that case you have to delete (or rename) the folder left, and then you can install it. In other cases installer stays in a loop install condition, and cannot continue. In that case try to install another application to finish somelooped order. I realised another thing, which is very interesting: when you want to uninstall a program, and your pda says it cannot be removed - or something -, if I run Vijay555 killphone application in 98% of the cases after it I can uninstall the same.
I hope this wil help!
Hi,
Perhaps I have been lucky but I havent had any issues with regards to installing or uninstalling programs.
I do make sure that I soft reset before and after - so maybe thats a golden rule!
Matt
Yes, softreset would be a good tip in more cases, but it wouldn't solve the problem when you want to install a program which needs a place what exists.
I did find some files in the windows directory and deleted them. That WORKED. Just doing program files is not enough. In this case, the file name was the same as the program. I don't expect to be that lucky all the time.
I have done soft-resets when it does not work. I do a number of trial programs and tend to forget prior to removal. What a apin
Got to love Microsoft - reboot is the answer to everything.

Hello.
I have a problem with the installation of software on my x1.
No matter how I try CAB is always only the message "installation of xxxxx.cab failed"
However, space is enough available.
I have tried to download cab from the web, moved it via USB-cable or downloaded an email-attachment. Fails everytime, same for storage-card or memory.
This issue appears since 2 days, don`t know what has changed
I run the latest official ROM and Radio for WM6.1
thanks
Raggi
it is a bug
on third-fourth try cabs can be installed
I have tried it now 15 times and couldnt install the .cabs
one thing is interesting: If want to copy/paste the cab to a different folder, this error pops up: "Cannot copy, access denied. Please make sure that destination is not write-protected, file is not used and that there is enough memory" (my translation into English)
If I create a new folder and want to rename it later, I get the same error
try to format sd card
issue is solved by doing a hard reset
If you'd given of chance I could have saved you the time of reseting. See this post I just submitted for someone else.
