.msg messages - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Apologies if there is already a thread with a solution to this but I have tried searching without success...
How can I open an email attachment that ends with the .msg file extension that has been sent to my TP2?
When I attempt to open it I get the following message:
'Unrecognized file type. Tap and hold the attachment to save it and open it using a compatible program'.
Is there a compatible program for the PPC?
Im running stock HTC WM 6.5 ROM.
Many thanks,
Clips.

No takers....??

Running an application

Hi guys,
I'm trying to run a regedit program on my 02 XDA 11s.
I have tried several, and when I try to run the setup or exe I get the following message:
"There is no application associated with SETUP. Run the application first then open this file from within the application"
Any ideas, it must be something simple as I have tried several different programs and all experience this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
whats the file type ?
cab
exe if it's exe you should make sure it's not a pc activesync install
if it's zip
or rar
you should make sure that you have a unpacker for those 2
I think the program I tried to run was not for my mobile device.
Is there a stand-alone regedit program avaiable that I can download.
Thanks,
Rob.

Many thanks.
I think I need to connect via the Sync cable and use the ActiceSync cable as most applications seem to have to be installed this way.
Thanks,
Rob.

unable to update hx4700 2003 - MW6 using Bootloader!

I've read good reviews on chrismrulz's bootlaoder programe and I'm trying to use it to update my iPAQ 4700 from 2003 to WM6. However I am obviously doing something wrong as I just cannot get it to work!
Please can anyone offer any advice?
I hope I am following the exact instructions as mentioned here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325727
and here is what is happening:
Step 1.
Make new folder in root directory.
No Problem c:\Bootloader set up.
Step 2.
Download WM6 ROM and bootloader into file.
Done as directed from links in instructions directly into new folder.
Checked and c:\Bootloader now has 2 files in it Bootloader.exe and WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar
Step 3.
Put hx4700 in bootloader mode and place in sync cradle.
I assume I have done this correctly. Screen goes blank and you can just make out the HP logo it says USB when in cradle and shows version 1.01
Step 4.
Open bootloader and select image.
Ok I go to folder and double click on Bootloader.exe
I get a security warning about the software and ignor by pressing run.
2 things now happen simutaniously. Bootloader.exe expands and creates c:\Bootloader\Bootloader and fills it with more files and directories and....
I get a box asking me to select a file to flash ROM to my device. I change the directory back to C:\Bootloader and select WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar and press open.
I get a message telling me to please wait the file is being extracted and inviting me to press ok. Before I can press ok the box is replaced with a winRAR Diagonistic Message saying c:\Bootloader\WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar no files to extract.
I close this dialog box and get another message telling me to wait whilst it edits files. Then this in turn is replaced by a message saying Error reading file c:\Bootloader\Bootloader\temp_nbf\ I click on OK to acknowledge.
And that’s it nothing else happens.
I've obviously read the instructions wrong or something can anyone help point me in the right direction? Or offer any alternatives?
I'm using Active Sync 3.7.1
Thanks
Phil
Open the rar file (with WinRar), and read the instructions that are in the Readme.txt file... And update your Activesync to version 4.5, which is needed for WM6.
Excellent,
Thank you Ridolfo, so much easier than what I was trying to do. I now have WM6 working and am very pleased with it.
One problem i now have is Activesync 4.5 will not work with my Outlook 2002 I dont suppose anyone knows a workaround or do I have to buy a copy of Outlook 2007?

Try these .....
First install JBed, then Opera
Cheers
Dirk
Hi Dirlan,
Thank you for the files. I was already experimenting with Opera so I deleted it from my iPAQ loaded Cloudyfa_EsmertecJbed.cab and then reinstalled Opera.
Unfortunately I get an error message from Jbed saying "the file jbed cannot be opened. Either it is not signed or one of its components cannot be found.
Any ideas?

After extracting using WinRAR
Trying to upgrade from 2003 to WM6 ...
After extracting WM6_4700_0_7_0_RELEASE4.rar using WinRAR I am trying to follow the instructions in the readme.txt (as Bootloader didn't work for me as in the first post in this thread):
From readme.txt
To begin with if you want to flash your device using cradle,you have to:
1.In processes (CTRL+ALT+DEL) you must kill Wcesscom.exe
2.Then Enter in Bootloader (Contacts+iTask+Reset)
3.Put your device on usb cradle.
4.Run mtty11a.exe
5.In "Port" choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click OK
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0
7.Wait
8.Enjoy yourself
As I'm not all that familiar with this can someone explain in step-by-step what's involved with the mtty11a.exe application, and Step 6?
Currently my hx4700 is what I think in bootloader mode (Screen is dim an I can barely make out "USB" the hp logo and the current version "v1.01"). I previously tried the original WM5 upgrade and it just dies on me at 0.1%.
Hi tk2000
As I posted the original post I know exactly what you are going through. However once I went through the instructions you are currently trying to use every thing went smoothly. You have extracted the .rar file and are unsure of the mtty11a.exe file.
Assuming you have you have killed Wcesscom.exe on your pc as in step 1,
and the device in in its cradle in bootloader mode (as you described very faint HP logo, USB and version 1.01 displayed).
Then double click on the mtty11a.exe as in step 4. This then brings up an application and you will see a dropdown menu next to port, simply select the option \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and click ok.
6.Write command: lnb OS_WM6.nb0 now this stage I was a little unsure of myself I simply typed "lnb OS_WM6.nb0" in from the keyboard and pressed enter and it started to load. This takes a few minutes but afterwards you should have WM6 on your device.
I had to do a couple of hardware restarts and it took a few minutes in its cradle but it all works fine for me.

Hi Phil,
There should be an 'opera-unsigned*.cab' somewhere here on the forum. I didn't try it because Opera works fine for me.
Sorry
Dirk
Phil3099, I a followed the instructions exactly but I don't see a status bar on the pda. mtty showes the progress with lines of + but the 4700 stays on the hp logo screen with USB on top.

[HELP]Assigning a link to a New Start Menu Button?

I've already posted this question in Dutty's v3.3 thread, but haven't really gotten an answer any help would be appreciated.
I made a folder in Programs (via File Explorer: Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs) that contains links to all my Skyscape Medical Books, and then created a shortcut (Med Books.lnk) to the folder. I then tried to assign the shortcut to a start menu button, but when i try to open it from the start menu i get an error message about the .lnk being unsigned.
The file "Med Books" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found, if the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file

I installed sdkcerts but i still get the error message trying to open the .lnk, from the start menu.
Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

[Q] Long file names android to win 7

Thanks in advance

[Q] Opening a document from status window

On the Note 10.1 2014's pull down status menu, when I click a recently downloaded .doc file, it gives me an error message that the document 'is not a supported document type'. It does open POLARIS Office 5, at which point I can open the doc through the file browser. I was thinking that POLARIS wasn't the default word processing program, but when it attempts to open the file, it does run the program. I'm new with Android, so am I missing something here? How can I make the file open when I click on it from the recently downloaded file list on the pull down status menu?

Go ahead and download "Kingsoft Office 5.8" from the Play Store. Just search for it with the word "office", it should be the first result. I don't have much experience with Polaris, but usually those Samsung apps aren't the most full featured ones you can get. That's why we usually refer to them as bloatware. Kingsoft is probably the most full featured and widely used office suite for Android and if that doesn't open it as well then you might have have a problem with the file. Plus It's free.
If you have trouble locating the file, use the "file explorer" app to locate it. It's most likely in your "Download" folder.
