Someone can help me? I have Tom_B_B_v4[2].0_TouchFlo_Professional installed on my Artemis, and activesync 4.5 on laptop.
Is impossible to transfer files from device to laptop. It is possible only from laptop to Artemis. What can i do?
Many thanks!
if the files are located in the my doc dir then they should be mirroed onto the
my pda documents inside the my documents on the pc
otherwise one can use explore device
in activesync on the pc and copy the cab file
and paste it where one would wish on the pc
does'nt works.
Does'n work. This is the problem: if I try to copy a file (for example a Mp3) located everywere (internal or sd memory) in the pda, and paste in the laptop (desktop or folder), it seems than start copying file, but really does'nt.
(Sorry for my english)

sounds like a firewall (windows file sharing problem) try and run a network wizard on the pc and make sure you can share your C drive.
give it a go it should work.

I think is a problem of activesync 4.5. I read the guide online and in "transfer files" is written "does'nt work with all devices" (is written in Italian, I think this is the traslation)
solved?
I solved temporarily in this way:
On Activesync activate tranfer files, automatically create on desktop folder "my documents" where is possible manage files.
Then I installed "cardexport-wm5" on device. With this program is possible to switch usb connection to Actyvesinc or Cardexport; in this case the memory card is recognized by PC like an external USB drive. Is'nt so easy, but I do'nt realize still better.
However, I'm looking for a solution for this problem, and I am available to share my experiences, in this moment I think that is a bug of activesync 4.5. So, ask for administrators if possible open a topic for this problem.

I copied some files from my QTEK S110 onto a friends laptop and they copied accross OK although they did not have a .doc file exension (it was something else) and then when I tried to open them from the new location I could not even after associating that file extension with WORD.
Whats going on?
Also does anyone know how I can se the file extensions of all files and unhide hidden files in file explorer on my pocket pc.
thx
the file extension for pocket word is *.psw to use them on word on pc i think it has to be converted. In pocket word you can click on tools then Save Document As.. do that and under the drop down list of file type you can save it as .doc .rtf .psw .txt and another file type.
about the hidden files if you tap the screen and hold it in the explorer and a menu will come up and theres a selection there for view all files, it unhides some files but not all files. I use Profiexplorer which comes with profimail which is a indepth explorer. it shows all files aswell as file extensions and you can change file extensions and so on
Simply set the active sync option to convert the Pocket Word <-> Word files on transfer. I though this was on by default.
Of course if you don't copy via AS (e.g. via the SD card), it won't convert.

"Of course if you don't copy via AS (e.g. via the SD card), it won't convert."
Sorry I didnt understand the sentence above. What does AS stand for? AND Did you mean that if I have copied my *.psw file onto my main memory (Permanent Save) that "Simply set the active sync option to convert the Pocket Word <-> Word files on transfer" wont work
I havent tried Active Sync yet.
AS = Active Sync
This converts the format for you when copying from one to the other.

If you haven't tried ActiveSync (AS) then you must be transferring the files via the SD card or perhaps BT or IR? This won't convert them - ActiveSync can convert the files on the fly as you transfer them between device and PC.
@ thebrit
Thanks
@ mtbsoft
Thanks yes I am using BT though I do not have an SD card they are saved into my RAM - The S110 has 128MB instead of the usual 64. Thanks for your help
Hi there, I'm having trouble installing programs that seem to come in loads of separate files. One of them is an XML file and the rest seem to be unopenable/unrecognisable by windows.
Can anyone give me advice on how to install these onto my MPV3100. I've search for Install help but there doesn't seem to be anything specific on how to do it.
Thanks.

I can't be sure but it sounds like you have decompressed a .cab file on your PC before trying to place it on your device. If so that's not the way to do it.
There are in general threetypes of programme/files you can download for WM5
1. ,cab files
2. .exe files
3. .zip files
.cab files you place directly on the device by connecting via active sync using the Explore button on the PC active sync screen. If you have a storage card inserted navigate to that and drop them in there. To run a Cab file just click on it on your device.
.exe files in the main you run on your PC whilst connected via active sync. The programme will automatically instal the programme on the device. Keep an eye on the device there maybe some taps you have to make.
.Zip files in general you extract these on the PC and then you'll see if they are .cabs or .exes and then treat them as above.
Most programmes will then show up under the Start>Programmes listing on the device and you run them from there. Some though may not especially if you chose to install them to storage card. In which case use file explorer programme to navigate to them.
Ultimately you'll want a programme that allows you to create short cuts to them probably on the desktop screen.
Hope this helps

yup , i just bought the hd and already installed few programs but all of them were .cab files , but i was wondering how to instal the .exe files i found on the net or isn't this possible ? so yes can someone please help me out here , thx .
I'm pretty new to this, but I think in general, you have to connect you HD to your PC via USB, choose the activesync option (not direct drive), then run the exe on the PC, and it will install it to your HD via the cable.
If the pc doesn't recognise the exe (won't run it), try running it on the HD using file manager.
There are two types of exe files.
Those that run on the PC and those that run on the phone.
It usually states somewhere which one it is.
As Eclogue said, if it won't run on the PC, copy it to your
Storage drive and run it from there.
Is it possible? The easy solution would be exploring files from windows mobile device center but i think it's not possible to explore inside \windows from the desktop.
yes it is.
in Windows 7 open explorer,click "organize", then "folder and search options" , click tab View then check "show hidden files and folders " , then uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and there you go !
unplug device and plug it again either in activesync or disc drive mode.
that doesn't work, i got loads of errors "the process cannot access the file because it's being used by another process"
Maybe try to copy to SD Card first and then to your PC.

Yes, try JR_de's method also ! other possibility is to work in the Windows safe mode.Or try some Linux live editions then transfer files.Note that files in \windows folder are marked as "read only" , so you need to uncheck it.And do not copy files on desktop...use new folder in one of your computer partitions.
Did you see what processes are blocking ?
It's not as simple as that since it's the phone stopping the copy no matter what OS you use the phone will not comply, try and copy files even to SD you will get this, just the same as on a PC try deleting something in use "locked file"
Same reason why we use ROM Extractor to take ROM files since you can't just copy.
so i should be able to do it using ROM extractor? can it take all device storage files or is it just for ROM files?

Just single files.
I'm not sure what you trying to do but it may just be easier to dump a ROM, why do you need all files?
Hi all,
Just wondering if anybody could shed light on the following scenario:
When I connect my HD to my PC using windows mobile device center and successfully sync, i then navigate to a windows explorer tab and open up my storage card. I can then browse files, copy and paste, rename etc, however, i can not edit word files. When i open up a word file on my device via my pc it is locked as read only. The only way to be able to edit such files is to disconnect, and then reconnect my device, but in disk drive mode.
Does anybody know if i can edit my files and use activesync at the same time?
Thank you very much for your time
