The fastest way to do this is to copy everything you need directly from your memory card through card reader.
If you have bluetooth on your PC and have just few photos, you can send them through bluetooth (in any file explorer you use on your HD you should have option like "Send to bluetooth recipient") but this method is very slow...
And of course it is possible to do file transfer through USB cable (via ActiveSync or some other program, but I can't give exact advice, because I use just first two methods )
Third method (via USB) is to enable Data transfer instead Active Sync... Your uSD card will be visible as external disc, and on it you'll see famous DCIM folder which contains pictures...
it so easy
it s0 easy,
first; you have to install windows mobile center to your pc and than conect your phone to pc

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.

marco
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.
Hi im new to this forum, but it comes highly recommended.
Im having trouble accessing my files on the smartphone through my PC. I had the phone previously before i gt a new one and by going to the my mobile device folder in my computer i could access all the files on the phone when it was connected. Though now on the same phone bt everytime i try to access these files the window itself just closes. I am able to do everything else on the phone but to put mp3 I have to use windows media player and place it on the storage card.
I have tried everyhing from reseting the phone to its original status and upgrading the rom. Please can some one help me as I like to use this way to transfer films and videos to the phone and check other folders. Or if anyone knows of another way to transfer movie files and mp3s to the phone.

It does not seem like there is something wrong with your phone but with your desktop! Try to delete the partnership in ActiveSync.
If you have the know-how you also might remove the drivers for your mobile device manually on your desktop.
uninstall ActiveSync completely and then reinstall (maybe the latest version???)
At least I would try that first ...
How would I remove the drivers from my mobile device manually on the desktop.
I have already unistalled the active sync and downloaded the latest version but i'll try it again.
Thankyou
What phone do you have, what version of ActiveSync do you use, and how do you connect to your PC (USB or BT)?
I have an O2 xda mini, I connect via usb and I have version 4.5 of active sync.
Did you delete the partnership yet? After deleting the partnership, can you connect as a guest and then access your phone via Windows explorer?
I just deleted the partnership and tried going through windows explorer. Once I click on mobile device and go into the folder. The same thing happens as when there is a partnership. I click to go into a folder (any folder) and the windows explorer crashes and the error report comes up asking me to debug or send error report. This is a constant thing no matter what i try
Do you have access to another computer? If so, try using that one. If you don't have any problems, then the problem lies in your computer. I recommend getting a registry cleaner to scan and repair any registry errors.
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!
Just got my TMOUS HD2. I copied some mp3s that i bought at emusic.com to the storage card and listened to them. Worked without problems. But I cannot transfer back some of them using Windows Mobile! One folder seems to be empty, in the other the mp2s are still displayed, but nothing happens when I attempt to copy them.
On the phone, the mp3s are present, I still can listen to them, but I can't move or copy them to another place with Total Commander.
What happened here? Is this a known problem? Couldn't find any help here or with google...
Thanks,
Hannes
Hi, How are you copying the files? Using remote file explorer? And whats the language of your phone?
- Herojit
Hi!
My Phone language is english (unfortunately for me, scnr). I start Windows Mobile and then browse the storage card from there. Is that the remote file explorer? (Sorry, my Win7 is in German)
Hannes
Hi, Are you trying to copy from Storage card to device storage and vice versa?
- Herojit
Yes, I tried to copy from storage card to device. With File Explorer, it does just nothing, with Total Commander, it says "Cannot acces file". When I try to transfer the files to the PC, it does nothing.
Also, i noticed that there is a file named ~hTC******.vin in all the folders that I cannot access. Maybe there is connection?
Hi, I think the file is Drm protected? Any chance for that? Can you check if there is a lock icon displayed on top of the file icon.
- Herojit
Hi Herojit!
No, the files isn't DRM protected (it was from emusic.com, they are all DRM free). It has the ordinary windows media icon.
Yours,
Hannes
Hi Hannes, now I don't see any problem, can you restart the device and copy again, I feel the file is still access by one of the player.
- Herojit
Hi Herojit!
Did that, no change at all. Another weird thing: my computer doesn't display any mp3s at all in the one folder that is having troubles, while I still can play them on the HD2. Another directory shows all the files, but cannot transfer them anywhere. This sucks!
Nobody ever experienced that? :-(
Hannes
From what I understand you're trying to copy those files while connected in "activesync mode".
If that's the case, you want to enable the "disk unit" mode.
If that is NOT the case, then Im clueless
Hi!
I had no transfer mode set up, just ignored that screen all the time. Anyhow, I figured out a practical solution: Windows Media Player was able to fetch all the MP3 from the Phone, even the ones that Explorer couldn't display. So I am quite happy now, but I'd still like to know what is going on with my phone...

Hi,
I created an app that reads a csv file from storage card. This file should be created with excel from a PC and saved to the connected device's storage card with a macro.
My problem is that I can't find which path I sould use from the excel macro to directly save it to the SD.
Can you please help?
Thanks
You can't do it directly. Although Explorer shows your mobile device as being accessible from ‘My Computer’, in reality it is using ActiveSync to get at it. Without ActiveSync installed there is no 'Mobile Device' visible.
From a command line there is no direct method to get to your device, but you can do it indirectly in a two-step process.
Firstly, download and install the Windows Mobile Developer Power Tools - WindowsMobilePowerToys.msi from here
One of the utilities in the above is CECopy. It runs as a command line program using “DEV:” to represent your mobile device. The two steps now become:-
1.) Save your spread sheet to the hard disk as C:\TEST.XLS for example, then use:-
2.) CECOPY C:\TEST.XLS DEV:\Storage Card\TEST.XLS
It should do the trick, I have just tested it on WinMo 6.1 and it works a treat! It goes without saying that ActiveSync must be installed on the PC and the mobile device connected. Good Luck!
Code:
C:\PROGRA~1\WI1C69~1\CECopy>cecopy readme.txt dev:\readme.txt
Connected.
Syncing from <readme.txt> to <dev:\readme.txt>
"readme.txt" Copying (New) ... 2/2 k ok
C:\PROGRA~1\WI1C69~1\CECopy>
It worked fine, thank you
