hi dident work for me either any sugestions

I cannot seem to be able to load that file. I can only Explore on my 8125. I can extract the .cab file to my desktop and I can copy the unextracted .cab file to the 8125 (or the extracted files) but I cannot install the program.
Any suggestions?

Copy the .cab file to your device and run it there. I don't think you need to extract it first before copying it over.

Better still here is an explanation of what you would be doing and why.

Cab files....

Im pretty new here and just got my BA not tooo long ago...I used to be a trreo user now im hooked on my BA.
I see alot of software that comes in a form of a cab file...does anyone know how I can load that software on my BA? thanks alot!

hey mate and welcome!
if you put the cab file in your pc folder; you'll see that the description is "zip file"....that's because it's the only format microsoft recognizes...in a way its also true as the cab file is a compiled program ready for installation. what you do is DON'T unzip the file in your pc; rather cut/copy and paste it directly in your ba (via activesync or in your sd card). put it in a folder that's easy to find; say "my documents...personal" (or you can make your own folder to put in cab files). use your ba's file explorer and go to the folder...from there double click (via stylus) on the cab file and it will automatically install itself. btw, if you copied the cab file in your sd card you can also execute the installation there....no need to paste it in your my documents area.
if you're using wm2005; upon execution the unit will ask you if you want to install it in the sd card or internal memory....that's really up to you depending on the size of the file you're installing.
hope that helps

thanks alot Robson.
Ive always looked past cab file programs b/c i couldnt install it. I hope this thread helps other newbies too. I searched and couldnt find an answer.

is there anyway that can install cab files direct from pc to ppc?

sorry for the late response; was in china for a week.
unfortunately, no. i don't think there's a way to install cab files via pc. if you do unzip a cab file; you'll notice that the files are something like:
0000124
009890
or something like that....can be as many as 20 lines of code...but scanning through the entire zip will not give you any .exe files which can be executed via pc. if you have a card reader installed on your laptop, simply copy and paste the cab file on your sd and from there install via your ppc
hope that helps

I cannot get vitocopypaste to work!

i am trying to copy/move file, it wont tell me" file cannot copy or move".. i heard that Vito Copypaste is a good program, when i try to download it, my device says ERROR.. Cannot be viewed on this device.. I am pretty sure i have the App unlock.. because i have google maps, total commander and so installed.. any suggestings?

my understanding is that vito is for copying and pasting text, not files.
use total commander to move files...

I have tried that already, its says, cannot move or copy file! so i dont know what else to do...

This may be a silly question, but is your device app unlocked? Vitocopy/paste works great on my Dash.

i would think so, since i have total commander, farcade demo, google maps.. I am also running WM6.. i have no other problems installing/downloading any other files!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When your device is still Application Locked, you can still install some apps and they would work, however, some apps wouldn't run, so the question is, did you app unlocked it or not?

yeah i did do app unlock.. just not sure why vito wont work for me....

If using vito copy/paste to paste from one program into another, I have found that you cannot paste into password fields -- whether in IE, Opera Mobile, Opera Mini. I'm guessing this is a security measure either imposed by Vito Copy/Paste, The OS, or the browsers. I don't know why it's any riskier to do it in WM than in a Windows, but whatever. That is a pain in the butt.
If you are unable to paste a file using Total Commander and your device is unlocked, it's possible that the file is in use by the OS, or maybe in ROM?

just to add..Vito Copy Paste App could only be used for texts only and only in edit mode. It would not work on files etc..

thanks for all the info.. i appreciate it! this is VERY HELPFUL... after all this hassle, i was playing with total commander and was able to move i needed to windows/folder.. i cant tell u why it worked, but it did! trying to get the fav5 program to come up on my homescreen..Thanks again

looking back at all the posts ...
it seems that people have been telling you that the program is specifically used for copy/paste TEXT ONLY !!!
yet you keep on indicating what you have been trying is to move/copy files !!
are you even reading the helpful inputs ???

roger that! well anyways, i have it all taken care of!

Need help extracting gwes

Hey all,
I am trying to change the wait symbol animation on my PPC, and have read up on it, but all the directions say I need to copy the gwes.exe.0409.mui from the windows folder, modify it, and overwrite the old one with the modified. Unfortunately, I can't even copy it out of the windows folder. Seems like no one can get it to work very well.

Does anyone know how I can copy and then overwrite the file?

Come on, I know someone here must know how to do this.

use a program like gsfinder+

Hey Sleuth,
I've tried using GSFinder+ and Resco File Explorer. On both programs, it will let me use the copy command, but when I try to paste it in another folder it says that the file cannot be copied. Any ideas?

Basically, I'm hoping there's an easier way to get at the file than dumping the whole ROM.

Same problem here, any ideas?
