I have the dash connected to my mac. Not through USB,but through bluetooth and wifi. I beamed the WM6 file to my dash,but it says there is not enough memory and to deleted programs. Can someone give me a detailed explanation on how I can install WM6 without having to delete anything?
you can't install it like that.
run the exe on your pc and it will connect to the phone and start the rom upgrade.
pretty sure you will need a windows connection but i don't know anything about macs. i do know that you can't do it wirelessly.
good luck!
Yeah I know I can't do it wirelessly. I was trying to beam the file from my mac to my PC,cause I have construction going on at the house now,so only my mac is wireless. So I tried to beam the file to my phone,to them connect it via USB to my PC and run the update. But the phone says there is not enough memory.
I guess I would have to just put the .exe file on disc.
I could even put it on my ipod and connect my ipod to my PC and use it as a hard drive.
But after doing so,will the updater run automatically? As in I don't have to remove and previous programs?
no you don't have to remove anything.
your phone will be reflashed to the new rom and you will lose everything in the phones memory.
WM6 is not an application like I think you might be perceiving it. You must run it from your Windows Desktop with your phone connected through a USB connection. It will wipe out everything on your phone that is currently on it. Maybe it would help to envision the WM6 ROM flash more like what it would be like to upgrade your computer from Windows XP to Vista.

I can't copy files from PPC to PC through activesync. When I tried to copy, the conversion window of copying files popped up and it seems like its doing its job (converting and copying) and finished with no error. But when I go to the directory in my PC where the file copied to, there is nothing inside the directory. I've upgraded the activesync to version 4.1 (Build 4841) and still no luck. I tried from bluetooth and craddle connection and same result. However, I can successfully copy any file from my PC to PPC.
Does anyone had the same problem?
That's unusual.
I haven't had that problem myself, and it would be maddening if I did.
Tell me:
- Can you copy the other way around (PC to WM)?
- Is it every file, or certain types only?
- Can you try installing AS on another PC and trying the same process?
Same problem here, but with a S110. Various pc's and different version of AS tested. Some time ago it did work, but something triggered it to go wrong. Learning to live with it and copying stuff via sd-card.
Anyone a clue?

PC to WM5 works fine and it always successfully transfer the file for every type. The problem is only one way (WM to PC) through activesync.
I haven't tried to install AS on different PC yet. Will report after trial

In my case to upload file from WM to PC i use WiFi and connect through ftp to transfer data (Although it's inconvenient but it does the same job)
Thanks for the replies[/quote]
how do I upgrade? and will I lose functionality with missing sync? would there be another way to connect to the laptop usint something else if missing sync isn't compatible yet, or should I just wait?
You lose missing sync It doesn't work with WM6 unfortunatly. There is no other way to connect, unless you (like me) have an Intel Mac and can use Parallels or Bootcamp
A solution for WM6 and MAC
I have been a PDA and Markspace user for many years and always have the same problem when upgrading form 2003 to WM5 to WM6. Markspace tries to keep up but there seems to always be a delay.
FINALLY I have stumbled across a solution that works really well to sync both iCal and Address Book.
Here is the link.

Give it a bash and see what you think.
To transfer files use BLUETOOTH EXPLORER.

You lose compatibility with MissingSync, which is stupid, since the phone uses the same protocol. For whatever reason, the phone detects MissingSync and refuses to continue.
I gave up on MissingSync a few months ago. It was just too buggy -- sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. Luckily I use my phone with an Exchange server, so 99% of my data is synced over the air with the server (man, that's nice after ROM updates). For moving over files, I just use bluetooth --- as far as installing applications, I ended up moving almost all of the CAB files over to the SD card since I ended up reinstalling things 2-3 times a week due to new ROM's.
ActiveSync just works; it's really a shame that M$ won't build a Mac ActiveSync client that interfaces properly with iSync and Entourage. Hell, it'd be nice if they'd give all of the specs to Mark/Space so they can build a sync client that's actually as reliable as ActiveSync. It really seems like Microsoft doesn't realize that they could make tons of money if they'd throw more support at Macs -- they make most of their money on Office and other programs, not the operating systems. Heck, if they made a Linux version of Office, they'd sell tons of copies -- and it wouldn't be that hard to recompile it, since Office Mac is already running on Unix -- they'd just have to substitute some of the Carbon libraries.
Anyway... that being said -- when I need to flash ROM's, etc; I use Parallels. Make sure you turn "Auto attach USB" and don't plug your phone in before starting Windows. It works very well - I haven't had a problem yet. But I would strongly recommend using HardSPL and not flashing radios or SPL's via Parallels, just in case -- you can easily recover from a failed OS flash, but a failed radio flash can be very bad. Use a PC for those... or even the SD flash method described in the wiki (altho the stupid .DS_Store and .Trashes files seem to mess with that and prevent it from working -- so you have to slide the card into your phone with the OS running and delete those before restarting).

actually i had issues with the "auto attach USB" feature on parallels. It would tell me that the USB device is being used by the mac os...
other than that i flash everything through parallels and haven't had a problem yet.

hey, thats whats in my sig )
Also is anyone having problems sending files to their macs with resco file explorer?
I have an intel mac. i just use parellels for almost everything. I use bootcamp for flashing roms. For installing programs i just transfer .cab files over with a card.
How do i send files over via bluetooth? That would be easier.
Wow the solution was right under my nose!

Hey fone_fanatic I wish I took a bit more notice of your sig.
If anyone wants a great solution - this is it!!!
Have been using it for a couple of weeks and have upgraded and hard reset at least 20 times and it syncs perfectly everytime.
Hi all,
Is it possible to make my Artemis to work (with desktop PC) like USB hardware (hasp) hardlock key if I already have a dump file of that dongle key?
I need some kind of emulator for my Artemis to communicate with other PC like different hardware (USB) dongles when different Dump files are loaded in on the Pocket PC.
Well you need activesync inorder to see "my device" in "my computer" then you just can treat it like a hard disk drive. Not really sure why you'd do this though considering its a bit of a big flash disk?
try:
wm5storage
softick card export
Ok, but I don't need my Artemis to emulate card reader.
I want some kind of emulator for my Artemis to communicate with other PC like different hardware (USB) dongles when different Dump files are loaded in software on the Pocket PC.
I need my PC to "think" when Pocket PC is connected and this software is started on the pocket PC with current dump file that this device is one of this USB Hardlock (HASP) dongles, not Pocket PC.
Thanks in advance

wm5storage does the work.
Just change your windows . If you use the new and "improved" vista it will be recognized as a mass storage device (after a few updates are automaticaly installed). For all other computers I use a bluetooth dongle

Unfortunately all answers are wrong.

Hi mates,
I have big issues with data transfer with my device. I wanted to do a backup of my files (Whatsapp and several folders). My System is Windows 10. When I connect my phone to my PC and choose "Data Transfer" on it I see my Pixel at the Explorer on my PC. Now when I try to drag and drop a folder to my PC it calculates the duration but nothing happens and then my Explorer crashes. Does anyone have the Same Issue? Sadly I cant remove the SD Card because there isn't one. How do you drag and drop big folders? Dragging single files works, but i cant drag 5000+ files at their own.

Hello,
Maybe a Windows driver problem?
Did it happen suddenly or it has always been this way?
Did you try on another computer?
Another USB cord?
Tried another phone to see if it transfers fine to the same computer?
Good luck...
Thanks for your advices.
Maybe a Windows driver problem? nope..
Did it happen suddenly or it has always been this way? always
Did you try on another computer? yes, same ****.
Another USB cord? Same ****
Tried another phone to see if it transfers fine to the same computer? all the nexus/pixel with solid storage does this.
I Try now Wondershare MobileGO, it's slow af but it works U don't have these Problems?

Hello, not at all...
File transfert is super fast. From Windows 10 to Pixel and from Pixel to Windows 10.
Can you try to uninstall the Pixel driver from device manager, also uninstall the device completely when plugged in... Then unplug and plug it back. Select transfert on the Pixel and let it update the driver.
Also, are you completely stock or is your bootloader unlocked? If unlocked, try booting TWRP.img and try transferring from here.
Good luck...
Same here. i actually made a thread about it a while back, cant find it though.
Speeds literally crawl to 256kbps some times!
Happens on my gaming machine, and my linux pc, on all ports, with both my cables. with the same setup i can get around 30-40mbps with my nexus 5x and 6.
i notice it happen more often transferring from pc to phone, but it happens consistently both ways. Ive tried with adb debugging, without adb, ptp and mtp, and all my drivers are synced up with google so they are the latest. i ended up setting wireless transfer up.
Super fast for me after 7.1.2
i agree MTP blows but after the update I moved 1.25gb of music in less than a minute using USB 3 connection.
Like title says N8P doesn't let me to tranfer apk or exe files from PC to internal memory/SD neither through windows explorer or HiSuite. Tranfer start then stop after about 30-40%, phone disconnect and connect again to PC. For example I tried to tranfer a GCamera for N8P apk (from this forum) to SD card to install it. It's any protection somewhere i must remove it?
ThankYou!
My best guess is that your cable is damaged. Next would be something with HiSuite, however I can't comment on that since I never used this peace of software.
You could try:
- use adb for file transfer (if it still doesn't work cable damage)
- another cable
If you need to transfer an apk to your phone why don't you just download it directly to your phone. Unless you're developing yourself you should be able to get anything directly to the phone.
It's something with apk and exe files because I can transfer everything else. For example videos over 1Gb, pictures, anything. But if it's apk or exe it happens what I said even if have 20Mb
Sure, I can find other ways to do this. I did it through google drive. I just wander if it have any protection?
