1) There is an inbuilt function to export contacts to sd card.. From there copy it to your computer..
2) Use ES explorer, download it from market
1. Open the People app, then touch Menu > Import / Export. There's an Export to SD card option. Then copy to your pc via USB, bluetooth...
2. Use a file manager from the market. I recommend ASTRO, but any file manager will do.

You need the HTC drivers installed. For that you need to have HTC Sync installed on your computer. This is on your SD Card when you bought the phon or download it from the HTC website. When this is installed you will then be able to use the MPE software. Use the 'files' section to browse to where your contacts file is stored.
However, you seem to want step-by-step instructions to even the most basic things so I would very politely suggest that you need to do some more reading up of the DHD user guide plus any help on these forums. The MPE website also has a very useful forum that you should visit to learn more about that software.
Hope you get it sorted.
Dave
Thanks very much to all.

Hi Guys
I can connect my Leo via active sync and sync it with outlook, or add files to sync via the same method. But when I want to explore my device via my computer I can only view files. That goes to Leo itself and SD card. When I connect Leo as Diskdrive I can edit files on SD card.
Sorry, under Windows 7 Sync Centre I can create folders and copy files under Computer/"mydevice" on both the device itself and the memory card when connected using the phone's ActiveSync connection. I'm guessing you're using Vista or XP? Some helpful person here may ask you to confirm.
I use 7 as well.
However I had no problems with XDA Orbit/Orbit2, HTC Touch Diamond 2 under XP/Vista and 7. It is only HD2 that has a problem there.
Seems like drivers to me.

Well I want to re-arrange my start menu using my laptop. I active sync it and navigate to my device\windows\start menu\programs. In there if I try to move/copy/delete/create new files/folders/shortcuts I get access denied. I want to copy more wallpapers to my documents\wallpapers and get the same error.
I want to copy files to my SD card and get access denied. I can open the files, like music or pictures, to view but that is it.
I also can not copy any files out of the device to desktop.

Getting "access denied" seems to indicate you do not have the proper authority to access the files. This is just a wild guess, but you may try it anyway. Right click on the Windows Mobile Device program, and check properties. There is an option to run the program as administrator under the Compatibility tab. Maybe this will give you the authority you need to access these files. For me, no problems, running Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit.

I am really curious about the logical steps you used to reach the conclusion that his laptop is infected, and why you suggest the only solution is to reinstall Windows. Even if his computer were infected, is not reinstalling Windows a rather extreme solution? Surely a good antivirus program or running HouseCall is a much more reasonable solution.
So basically you can browse the folders of the SD and the storage, but you cannot process any files.
Other than the protected shortcuts (most of the supplied shortcuts are system and readonly) I do not have any access problems via activesync.
Is your USBtoPC set to ActiveSync?
I have the latest froyostone V1 from Energy released August 8 and I believe lot many like me have issues connecting with PCs. I had installed HTC Sync software from HTC Website, but the PC does not recognize and the phone does not give me option for connection type.
I posted this issue in the specific threads as well but no response and hence I am opening this issue so that experts outside the specific thread can guide us how to connect to PC. OR any other build that works perfectly. All my contacts are in Outlook and I want to sync them.
Any help or guidance much appreciated !!!

ADB and Automount does not support synchronizing the outlook contacts or emails, that HTC Sync can do..
Have installed SDK and most of it's component including USB Drivers for XP r3, but all in vain, HTC Sync does not detect it.
Automount, I can detect my storage card but that is not what i am looking here. Any help on sync of the outlook contacts will be great help. Also offline sync of emails from my outlook as we do for winmo..
This was explained already in darkstone's thread. He took out most usb functionality because files were being corrupted when transfered from pc due to the fact that the operating system is running off of the SD card.
Use a different build, or better yet, transfer your files to a folder from winmo and then boot to android and voila! your files will be there. Search is your BEST friend.

To transfer the files, "Auto Mount your SD Card" is better solution from copy to WinMO and then find it in Android using the explorer. But I was trying to sync my offline mails and outlook contacts as we do in winmo. Do you mean that if we sync in winmo, i could see my contacts in Android, I don't think so it is possible.
Hi,
How to install apk when:
- data connexion doesn't work
- there is no file browser installed by default by the build
- adding apk into Android/SystemApps or into Android/AndroidApps doesn't work befroe installing the build
I tried to use also I2APK but my HD2 is not recognized in windows XP: on the HD2 which usb mode i have to use in this case: charge only? Disk drive? ...
I havae already check the USB debugging mode.
Please help me
Regards
Two options you got:
1. Wi-Fi which I assume u dont have ;-);
2. Download Droid Explorer on your computer (http://de.codeplex.com/) and install it. It detects your Android phone. You can install applications to your phone from there.
Hope it helps.
Thanks
This is assuming you're running with the folder name Android:
If it doesn't exist already, create a folder called AndroidApps under your Android folder. Copy the apk that you want to install into that folder. Reboot. (I'd suggest putting a file browser in there like astro or es file explorer). Most builds I've used will install whatever is in that folder on bootup. (When I do a new build, I usually put mybackuppro apk in there, so I can boot up and restore all my data and apps.)
already done

Already done (see my post1) but with this ROM MCCM_HD_V1.2_Beta_3 it has no effect....
I used to do the same as you: all my favorite apk inside this rep.
Regards
- all builds will have android market in it, so download "Linda file manager"
- boot back to winmo
- connect device to pc (usb)
- transfer all your .apk files (assuming you got it in your pc) to a folder (its up to you to name this) in the sd card.
- boot back to android, open up Linda file manager and search for that folder
- there you can install the .apk files you got
Or use adb. Just get your right drivers installed

You just have to make sure the HD2 is booted into Android. Second thing is to make sure you exit out of HTC Sync program. Check in your system tray and right click and exit from it before launching Droid Explorer.
It works for me always.
Edit: n I dont have to choose any option on the HD2 screen, or you can choose 'Charge Only'. That works fine.

Thanksss
Done....
After a few hours on the net and with your advises i succeeded in installing ES File browser and every thing is OK now.
Just for my own information i tried to find a clear tuto of how to use adb and i couldn't find one: have you got one?
I need absolutly to install Android SDK?
What is the Good driver?
If i install this new driver it is not a risk of bad recognition if i connect my HD2 in WinMo mode?
For Droid explorer and I2apk it is this driver which is missign too?
Which USB mode on my HD2 device i have to choose to connect to adb? to droid or I2apk soft?
Regards and thanks again to everybody.
PS: @jigners: As i said i my first post Market Place didn't work because of non data connexion.
So,
-I just connected my S2 into my PC (windows 7 ultimate 64bit) and it said "CDC Serial - No Driver Found." Where can i download it?
-Every phone iv bought before i get a CD with it to install the software onto my PC.. what software do i need for the S2?
-I want to drag and drop some .APK files (apps) but dont know where to.
Hope you can help me... (this is my first android phone)
Thanks!
Hi.
You don't need to use USB. Connect your phone to WiFi and open Kies Air on your phone. Type the URL it gives you into your PC's browser and you can upload/download straight to your phone! Click File explorer in the browser for a complete view.
Hi. Just to samsung site, downloads, program name is 'Kies'.

I think this thread is running its course. We're not here to help you install pirated apps. This time is a warning. We don't want to know about it. Go buy them from the market, or via paypal.
The question was valid, but XDA is a developer site. Pay for apps, or use a free version with ads.
That is all. Thread closed before we get the old "omg it's not warez" flame-war...
Hi, I would like to ask after using the android how do i connect to the computer and copy some files? because i would like to copy the drag racing data but everytime i connect my htc hd mini which is using android to the pc nothing happen?
not available yet.
you can put your sd card into your pc carddrive
Or use ADB. Have a look here.
I also posted about a FileManager based on ADB that works quite nice.
Its called QtADB. Google for it.

You can use Myphoneexplorer, with this you can conect via wifi and then you can copy files, sync with outlook and more. Work perfect in the mini with Android 2.2.
Here the link. Good Luck
