| Cannot Copy Files to Mobile Device Recently I was able to copy some mp3 files from my PC to my Mobile device's storage card. I have a BlackJack smartphone. But today, when I was pasting copied files to mobile's phone storage card using Windows Explorer, nothing was happening except a less than a second appearing of copy progress window as if saying "I am trying to copy but... I cannot" and window closes. I made recent changes: - unlocked my phone - installed Total Commander - installed VITO CopyPaste - changed registry key HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies (added new value "0000101b": dword = 1 ) which was never changed to 1 when I was checking the value back. This hack actually allows running unsigned apps. So I was doing these changes very carefully and it does not seem to screw copying. But who knows. How to copy my files into the phone? Please, help!      |

| Re: Cannot Copy Files to Mobile Device Did you try to copy the files to the root directory of the card? If yes, then, it ight have been the problem as the file system can only hold some 128 files at most. Solution: put your files in a subdirectory (or several subdirs). App unlocking a phone won't help this (but is, otherwise, highly recommended). -- -- Werner "Menneisyys" Ruotsalainen - Microsoft MVP - Windows - Mobile Devices Please see the Pocket PC Mag Expert Blog (including mine) at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ - you will definitely like it. <vunet.us******.com> wrote in message news:1186150144.492153.319800@m37g2000prh.googlegr oups.com... > Recently I was able to copy some mp3 files from my PC to my Mobile > device's storage card.

| Re: Cannot Copy Files to Mobile Device Check how much disk space the card has using a third-party tool like Resco File Explorer (File / System Info / Storage Card). If there is more than 0 bytes free on the card, fix it using a desktop card reader using chdsk /f.

How do you copy? What external tool can I use to copy? |

| Re: Cannot Copy Files to Mobile Device As all the external tools rely on ActiveSync, they won't really help. You can, of course, give a try to Total Commander's WinCE FS plug-in to access the file system of Pocket PC's. See http://pocketpcmag.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15577 for more info on installing it. What I recommend is a separate card reader for your desktop computer if nothing else helps. -- -- Werner "Menneisyys" Ruotsalainen - Microsoft MVP - Windows - Mobile Devices Please see the Pocket PC Mag Expert Blog (including mine) at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ - you will definitely like it. <vunet.us******.com> wrote in message news:1186165868.884077.166180@i38g2000prf.googlegr oups.com... > On Aug 3, 2:02 pm, "Werner \"Menneisyys\" Ruotsalainen [MVP - Windows > - Mobile Devices]" <!ei.maileja@kiitos!> wrote: >> Check how much disk space the card has using a third-party tool like >> Resco >> File Explorer (File / System Info / Storage Card). >> >> If there is more than 0 bytes free on the card, fix it using a desktop >> card >> reader using chdsk /f. >> Seehttp://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=39583for more >> info >> on this. >> >> -- >> >> -- >> Werner "Menneisyys" Ruotsalainen - Microsoft MVP - Windows - Mobile >> Devices >> Please see the Pocket PC Mag Expert Blog (including mine) >> athttp://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/- you will definitely like it. >> >> <vunet...******.com> wrote in message >> >> news:1186163735.329164.129100@x40g2000prg.googlegr oups.com... >> >> > On Aug 3, 1:45 pm, "Werner \"Menneisyys\" Ruotsalainen [MVP - Windows >> > - Mobile Devices]" <!ei.maileja@kiitos!> wrote: >> >> Did you try to copy the files to the root directory of the card?
