[Q] Wierd Files on SD Card (After File Transfer) - myTouch 3G, Magic General

When I copy a .mp3 to my SD card (from my computer), two files are added. One is the file I copied and the other is a 4kb file with the same name preceded by a "._". For example, if I copy a file called "one.mp3," it will create that file, "one.mp3" and another file called "._one.mp3." Like I was just saying all the "._" files are 4kb, and they only show up on the phone's file explorer, not the computer. Does anyone know what this is, and why it's happening?

virus
this would disable your phone to recognize your files from the storage card..sort of virus..delete it upon activsync on your pc
Sort of what?
This is not a virus.
If I remember right this file is to instruct the system to not list the files of the dir in programs like pocket word....

WM2005 - Showing contents of /My Documents in the SD Card

In wm2003SE in the file "Browse" dialog box, even the files in my SD in the My Documents folder were being listed.
In WM5 this is not happening. Only files in My Documents on the actual Device are being shown.
Does anyone know what has to be done for the OS to search the SD card My Documents folder as well when its browsing files.
Anyone?

Universal Storage

I've just recently noticed that under File Explorer and Resco File Explorer that I've suddenly got a "storage" folder in addition to the sd card "storade card". Cant remember having seen it before and was just wondering is this was the extended rom as there seems to be an Application Data" directory inside and its size is the same as my "program files" directory of 43.7 mb.

Data recovery from /Storage folder

Hi all
After a hard reset, I made a bad move using x Backup (wrong tab) and ended overwriting my backup file instead of restoring it
The backup file (CompactFlashBackUpPim) is located on the /Storage folder from my XDA. I did not reformat it so it has the original "14 Mb" size.
Since the new file is only 4 bytes long, I guess it could be possible to recover the old one.
Does anyone know of a way to dump the entire contents of the /Storage folder ?
any undelete program for pc will undelete sd cards connected to the pc using a sd card reader
Thanks for your reply Rudegar.
As I mentionned, the file is located in the /Storage folder.
Although it is flash memory, it is built inside the device, and cannot be accessed like a SD card (only access is through activesync).

data transfer

I have the s6 lite tab, has a 64 gb memory card added as well, If I download a folder and it comes from the web as a zip file I can save that to the sd card, however I wannt to save a file in the zip folder to the card.
When I open the folder and see the files and select one with the check button it will not allow me to save the individual file to the card,,, is this normal please
thanks
