Hi, i tried to search for this but so far didnt find anything usefull. Im looking for something like iTunes (dont worry im not a apple fan ). It would be just nice to be able to manage all the software a little bit easyer. Meaby if the software could also install the apps... that would be A+ . Does anybody know if theres smth like this for the Leo?
Thanks
the software you're looking for is called Windows Mobile Device Center (For Vista & 7) or Activesync (For XP). Don't expect a marketplace functionality from them though.

Hi, I recently bought a Wizard and I was wondering if Media Center inspired (eighter xp or vista) Interface was ever made fo Windows Mobile. I saw a portable media center, and although the device wasn't great, I liked the resemblance to the actual computer interface. Those things were running on Windows CE too right? And what about the Zune interface? Has it ever been attempted?
I thank everyone willing to help
Thanx LucaS

I ran across this...have not installed it so don't know anything about it, might be what you are looking for?

Vista SideShow would be nice
What I am REALLY interested in is Vista SideShow running on windows mobile... M$ has such a huge opportunity here with SideShow, and they are not capitalizing on it. If someone were to release a SideShow driver that works on windows mobile, I would immediately pay $50 for it. Imagine being able to access Vista gadgets and Media center info through a pretty interface right on your phone! I'm getting all excited
Over the net is floating video of software which allows you tu run vista sidebar gadgets, but it never left microsoft labs (the video was with WM5 device), about sideshow i think microsoft will provide proper solution but you have to wait
Thanx
Thanks a lot anothersmith! That's actually the sort of thing I was looking...i just wish the interface was a little better looking ... I guess there will be improved versions in the future...but still, thank you so much for the help!
Anyone installed this (http://www.pocketpt.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=15512)? is it any good and does it let you watch tv?
you can whatch it only over internet, so it depends on your speed
Is there a free bit of software that will allow me to use the ppc as an extended desktop.
I have played with side window, but would rather not pay for it as i don't think I will use it enough lol
RDC is another option
Would that extend the desktop (use the ppc as a monitor)?
yes..its a short form for REMOTE DESKTOP SHARING..just as u do in wiindows..btw which device do u have and which OS ?
I am on windows XP with an htc touch running wm6

With MyMobile you can do that!
You find it here
Not quite what i need, i use that to control my ppc, what I want is to actually use my ppc as a second monitor, but thanks NatroXz
if u have WM6..remote Desktop sharing is already their..just configure it to connect it to ur computer
ok, so that is letting me remote control my pc, how do i get it to act as a monitor instead? thanks so far!!
sorry a bit off subject
basically my mouse has died on me and i was wondering wheather there is a app to turn my ppc into a touch pad which would connect via activsync and control my pointer on my desktop pc ?????
thanks
yep, look up ppc tablet (not free mind)

Check out http://www.innobec.com/en/products.php for what I am looking for. It is good, but I want to find a free way of doing it, as it is quite handy having somthing like notepad open in the ppc whilst i work in the main screen
thanks for the reply i downloaded to software you recommended but it did not install on my x51v .
i ran the cab file and went through the set up ............it said it is installed but could not find it anywhere on the ppc looked in programs and file explorer ....nothing!
i ve got a axim x51v with a cooked a03 rom
thanks for your help

os x
I was just looking for a program like SideWindow for OS X - I can't find anything. Does anyone know of something that will let me use my WM6 device as an external monitor under OS X?
-GB
So i´ve tried sidewindow.. @ my ppc (htc p-3401 wm5) and the ppc screen stay a little bit white, it lose the phone signal(what?! conflict ?) and nothing works..
tehre´s any equivalent software? or anyone knows how to fix the problem with sidewindow?
would it be technically possible to run the zune interface for everything that is music/media on windows mobile?
Hmm, I guess just like a skin or a separate application... Tho both are made by M$
Well.. they both run on CE5 unless im mistaken.. So, might be able to do it somehow.
wisbar desktop?
what the OP is asking about is if its possible to port the zune OS over to a windows mobile application. i am nowhere near dev status but i could be possible assuming that the zune OS is based on win CE like windows mobile but i'm not sure how hard it would really be though.
i would love to see this too honestly but i think that something like this would have to come directly from microsoft since a project like that is probably of a questionable legal status.

Seriously?? We need a ROM dump like... NOW. How would that happen?
I think a ROM dump would hardly work on any device...Maybe its kind of locked too. I think the best thing would be to take S2P source code and start a new project "WM_Zune" or so.
Otherwise, if A_C wont release the sourcecode, there would be enough talented people here to to a proper Zune-like app.

Martin
Well if "Zune" is just a program running on WinMob5, than if we got our hands on it, what would stop xda from cabbing it up like so many other "locked" devices?
http://www.zuneboards.com/microsoft-news/the-pink-and-purple-project.html
sounds like something fresh and new.. like zune is cool too.. not onli the ipod.. being a wm user we should support this idea..
Hi, see if this is any use to you while you wait for the actual application to be ported:

Zune on WinMo 6.1
Here is another article about Zune porting to WinMo6.1 and other mobile device:

I hope it doesn't slow the device down to a crawl. WMP bogs down my Mogul.
Ok so i looked everywere and cant find the answer so this is my question ok am running elegancia rom and am trying to use the remote desktop mobile but it wont let me.. I have windows vista home premium and so i read that it wont work but there is a way to by pass it... Can ya let me no how to do that were can i download that. And also i downloaded vnc viewer enterprise i have it install in my computer but how do i install it on my phone... Plz help i tried everything am frustrated now cuz i really trying to make this work...
You're new to this computer stuff aren't you?
Software written for a computer does not work on a phone unless it has been designed to do so specifically.
I believe that there is a setting in Vista Home Premium's registry that fools it into thinking it is a business version. Use Google.
Apparently he's new to english as well
The vnc viewer you need is available at this link: http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/pocket-pc/freeware/download--net-vnc-viewer-v1-0-1-17.html
Seeing as you are very obviously not an IT technician i would not recommend messing with the registry on the PC as you will very likely do something wrong and quite badly damage it.

Ahhh... That's what it was... I wondered...
Would it be possible to control windows 8 on a non touch screen desktop pc or laptop with Kinect.
If someone makes the program, why not?
Of course you can, there just is'nt any (that I know of) software that's out that supports windows 8. I doubt Microsoft will ever impliment it into W8 natively, but I have no doubt that someone will impliment it themselves.
Google "Kinect minority report hack"
yes thare is. Try kinect hacks dot com!
you will need to install Prime Sence & Open NI or Open NI64 & probly some other niffty drivers for kinect finding the most resent versions of this software requires alot of digging at the moment and getting them working is not for the week harted you will need to fallow thare install notes & tutorials exactly!
you must have a kinect bought sepretly from a console that comes with an external power sorce and pc usb addapter!
works on windows 7 as well!
if you can post the software you find hear & your experiance's that would be good!

I have used that software before and I know a little about Kinect "Hacks".
But does this really support the Metro UI?
And is there any software that will allow you to use Kinect as a touchscreen (on Windows 7 or 8) that is built using the offical MS SDK?

I don't think so, Metro UI is an interface that can be successfully adapted to kinect, like new XBOX live dashboard.
Also I read something about it, but can't found where.
