set "USB connection" setting to mass storage and select your SD-CARD ...and connect the PPC to computer..
and the computer will recognize your "SD-card" as a removable drive!
then you can easily copy mp3s or any file you want to your ppc!
good luck!

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.

Thanks

"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

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)

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.

You can use My Mobiler.
With this program, you can display your PPC screen on your PC, and simply drag and drop CAB-files to your PPC. Don't forget to delete CAB-files after install, cause they are copied to \My Documents folder.
Why aren't you using the Windows Mobile Device Center from Microsoft? It's the Vista replacement for ActiveSync and supports all of it's old features and more.
Just drag n drop the CAB's to your device and install as normal...
Thanks for replying but it will be the same..i have to go delete once again the installed cab files n more over the cab files will be installed to the default installation directory even though there r programs to change the destination to storage card..the procedure is hecktic n tiresome
Depends on your target device really. In WM6 on my Kaiser, the device asks where I want the program to be installed to. And the file not auto-deleting afterwards is just a registry setting.

Then try to find the programs that have exe files and run them from your computer. This will be a lot easier to accomplish.
I understand what you mean... i used to install CAB files directly from my PC, i just connect my phone to my pc and i double click cab files in my pc and it install to my phone BUT unfortunately I formatted my PC and I cant find the CAB installer again.. i think i found it in HERMES forum, until now im searching but without luck!
Is there any program that creates a setup.exe file from a .cab file that works on vista?
When i had my pc with Windows XP i used PocketSetupCreator but unfortunaly it doesnt works on Vista!
wow another thread on this...but u can just copy the files on your memory either phone or card and then install and there are ways to make it so that the cab file will delete itself after u install it...whats wrong with that

cabviaactivesync does the trick
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...-0-compatible-cabviaactivesync-now-available/
As mentioned before, you can set .cab files to auto-delete after install, with that set, use MyMobiler to drag and drop the file, and your done.

Pefect, I didn't realise this had been fixed. I had problems getting it to work on Vista the last few times I tried it. This is a great time saver for when I just need to install something quickly .
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?
