|
|
i have downloaded to file and have the following in my folder
pgpsw-speed-cams 141kb (a zip folder)
I have extraxcted the following from it
_Need_Help HTML Document 5kb
pocketgps_uk_sc psp 6 image 22x22
release Text Document 1kb
Licence Text Document 8kb
pocketgps_uk_sc.ov2 OV2 File 357kb
I try to open to ov2 file and and advised that Windows cannot open this file and directs me off to information on what an ov2 file is
How do i get this onto my Dell Axim.
Can someone do a 'sticky' that reads
got to ...
right click the file...
etc etc etc
a real brain dead instruction
Thanks |

You can either use ActivSync directly to the Axim, or do it with a Card Reader. _________________ Richard

Sorry ,but my PC doesnt want to copy any files to the Dell!
The dell is connected as a mobile device in 'my computer'
i can access all the files on the CF card, but when i go to the ov2 file (in a sep file on the c drive) to either move or copy to the dell, the move/copy box greys out
any suggestions? |

Have you tried using the "Extract All Files" and follow the Wizzard within Win XP to get the files out of the download BEFORE trying to copy them to your Dell? - I have seen this on at least one other PC recently, the Extract ALL files method worked fine - Mike |
