Mac support

How can I install any of the cab files to my tilt on a mac? Even TomTom Home for mac wont recognize that my tilt is plugged in. Someone please help me. With all due respect, however, please dont tell me to get windows/parallels/boot camp. If thats the only way to make this work... then its all good.

haha macs suck
unclear: Even TomTom Home for mac wont recognize that my tilt is plugged in.
does this mean the mac cant see the tytn?
Option 1: if can see
anyway open the kaiser on the mac comp
drag and drop the cab file
install it on the phone.
Option 2: if can't see
get a microsd card reader
plug into mac
drag and drop
put it back to phone
install.

All you need is this:

I use Mark / Space for all of my mobile handsets - excluding the iPhone. The application is awesome. In addition to call log syncing, sms archiving, and the usual address book, iCal, iPhoto, and iTunes import / export, it can even install CAB's. If you want to browse your TyTN ii as a drive, the software mounts your phone as a disk as well.
All of this can be done via Wifi, Bluetooth, or USB.

agreed.
isdereks is right. I purchased it yesterday. Very smooth. My only question (sorry, hope you don't mind if I piggy-back) is how to backup the device? Is there any program to do this? I want to start some reg edits and want to be able to back it up to my mac first (or my whole device just in case...)
thx
Robert

Good questions about a full backup solution. Not sure how to do that on a Mac. As far as registry edits are concerned, won't a full export do?

I've seen another program PocketMac Backup:

Anyone have any experience with this? Price is reasonable.
But, I'm not sure what you mean by a "full export". How do you do that?

Can I sync files over the Internet?

Hi,
Anyone know if there is an app that lets me synchronize files or folders between my PC and the memory card on my Tilt?
I want to be able to sync when I am away from home, over the Internet.
I know there are a few apps that do this while the phone is connected to the PC, like Easy Sync.

Hamachi mobile has been working for me to access my home computer - but haven't set up any automatic syncing. I guess it depends on how automatic you need it versus being able to browse to the computer and copy what you need.
It does require Hamachi to be installed on the home computer as well.

Came across this a while ago:
Folder Share
It's not something I need, so never could be bothered to set it up. Might be what your after though?
ACTUALLY scratch this plan. I just had a further look over the site, and realised its for PC's, not PDA's. That was the reason I never bothered.
Good hunting!

There is a service called Soonr, that doesn't really Sync the files persay, but you can access files on your PC from your phone. As I recall Orb does a similar thing.

It's funny, actually I use FolderShare on my work/home PCs and it works great to keep folders in sync. I really just want to find something similar that works on a PDA/phone.
I also have Orb and it works great, but I want to be able to keep Word files and such in sync so I don't always have to make an Internet connection whenever I want to open the files. I'd also like to be able to keep mp3s in sync so that I don't have to stream to listen to them.
I did a lot of Google searching and the closest thing I can find is Nokia's Intellisync which seems to have this Internet-synching capability, but it seems like a big business implementation. I can't believe there isn't a simple solution for this.

Does such a program exist?

I have serched high and low. I was wondering if there was anyway to get Microsoft Access onto my Fuze. I have a biz that runs on Access, it would be helpful if i could have it with me at all times instead of having to carry a laptop everywhere i go.

I don't think such a program exists. I'm assuming that your Access stuff is a full application with forms, etc? You can probably use something like this --> http://www.handster.com/programs.php?id=2906&for=Pocket PC mdb to update the tables, but I can't see it running reports, etc.
If you have a decent data plan, then one option is to run Remote Desktop to a PC back at base running the Access Application. I've got a Virtual Machine on my server which I can access from my Touch Pro. I can run any app I want on there, and as long as I don't try to do anything stupid (like play a video), then it works fine. This is the only way I could see your Access application working on your TP.
Cheers,
Steve.

I believe the client is built into the Fuze. If you have a custom ROM, just do a search. Several threads have the cab to install it on the Fuze. It has also been built into Windows since at least XP. You have to be a local admin or in the remote users group to Remote Desktop or RDP to your desktop.

yes, i searched. how network my n1 thru wifi router to computer?

i can't seem to figure out how to allow my n1 to wirelessly access my computer's files through my wireless router, using w7 64bit. i left my usb cable at home, and bluetooth would work through ubuntu, but i can't get w7 to pair at all, even using bluetooth file transfer apk. ideally, i don't want to use that anyway, because bt is slow as mud, comparatively speaking.
re: wifi
i've enabled file sharing on the home network. searching for devices doesn't give up the nexus at all. i have no idea how to add it :/
re: bt
i've enabled and started all bluetooth services. it can't even pair with my phone, for some reason. both are discoverable, both see each other, but won't pair. :/
i wish that there was a stickied thread about this. doing forum search with titles only doesn't pan out anything. doing google search only leads to non-helpful sites for the first 50 or so.
this seems like it should just be basic stuff. tell my computer to look, tell my phone to look, they see and go. but, neither wants to, they're both being stingy little stuck up bastards, lol
any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to say, but you're all wrong about it being a piece of cake.
Don't know about bluetooth, but sharing files over networks is far from easy. When did you last try it between different OS?
Let's start with this: Android is Linux (more or less), and it doesn't share files with Windows networks without extra SW. Windows find network computers using NETBIOS and shares using Samba. Linux uses mostly FTP.
So:
To access Windows shares from phone , you need Samba client. Use ES Explorer, for example.
To access phone from Windows, use FTP server. SwiFTP, for example.
To use Windows sharing on Android, wait until Jimmychingala updates his Samba server to work on Nexus, I'm testing it. NetBIOS works already, shares not quite yet.

you rock, sir. i will investigate. thank you very much

I'll throw in some more info:
There is no default Bluetooth file transfer support AFAIK. But there are 3rd party apps to do it, for example Bluetooth file transfer, or the aforementioned ES Explorer.

I would try dropbox for android. Its free and simple to use. 123 you're sharing files between multiple computers and your phone

yeah, i tried bluetooth file transfer. works fine in ubuntu, i can't even pair in w7. which is weird, because i had the exact opposite problem a few months ago when i was running stock ROM. i could sync to w7, without using the app even, but not to ubuntu.
dunno. i just hate having to drag that stupid cable back and forth from work.
and, dropbox is a good idea, but i don't want all of my business in the cloud. i have enough of it up there, lol

install filezilla server (or whatever you prefer) on win7 and connect via andFTP.
Make sure you configure the win7 firewall to accept incoming ftp connections.
If you find that hard use zonealarm free firewall instead of the default.

Need help regarding remote connection

Ok so this is the scenario i have 2 computer at 2 different locations (Home and Office). On my main computer there is software which i would like to use on my another computer simultaneously. Like i am using the software on my home computer(Main PC) and brother wants to use the same software at our office, so i have created 2 users on my main PC and i would like my brother to use 2nd user to login remotely and use that software. Let me tell software has capability to be used at 2 place simultaneously.
Waiting for your help
Thankyou

Omg is that so much difficult, ,, no reply yet.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

umm, yeah its possible. all you need is a citrix server ( or similar ), i think there area few bits of software that do work on desktop machines. but i can't remember any of the top of my head. i know i have iraap for my mac, i will take a quick look for you now. But a quick warning if you wanting to do this over the internet. its going to be much harder working out port forwarding ETC over doing it in a lan enviroment. so you possible could use hamachi. ok i'll get back to you in a bit.
and yes this is quite an advanced thing todo. what your technically trying to do is create a server in which multiple members can connect to and do things simultaneously. so your not going to want to do this very much as it will cause a reasonable amount of strain on your system and certainly slow it down. if you are going to do this alot i would recommend investing on a cheap server

ok check this out, fire me off a pm if you need any help. i'm happy to help

Unless your computer is setup as a server (or hacked to allow so) you're only allowed one desktop connection at a time?
Please someone correct me if I am wrong?
Edit: NM, people replied whilst I had the page open without refreshing....

just thought you might be intrested. i believe normally a windows machine will allow remote desktop connections, which means you can control the computer from another machine, very much similar as vnc. but a terminal server (citrix) allows multiple users to connect and run completely seperate sessions, but there are program that run the services needed to run terminal server witout a full blown server operating system.
just thought i would clear this up for you

I udnerstand that part, but as his PC is likely to be a standalone windows enviroment, and with him working on it, his brother will not be able to log in from the second location, as standard, due to that policy. I know there is a dll that can be hacked to allow it though. I have an understanding the RDP side, but he is using a windows machine not a terminal server/virtualised server etc, so from my perspective, his question was is it possible as is, not how do I make this possible by throwing money at it.

no these are completely free peices of software that require no dll hacking, they create there own server services that replicate terminal services.

Thanks for the help slamming, but i must tell you i am a noob concerning this.
I have checked out the link. Can you be more specific without all the jargons how should i go about achieving it,i would be really grateful.

ok well, what your are wanting to create is a terminal server, this is used alot in enterprise and it allows multiple user to connect to the same machine and use all the same applications and share data. But in enterprise they will use a machine called a thin client, this machine will boot straight from the network and connect to the terminal server. but you aren't going to want to buy a thin client so you are going to have to download another application on the second computer. but we will come to that later. what i think would be a good idea is if you were to read up on terminal services, terminal servers and maybe even thin cleints, as i think you do need to be able to understand the majority of the jargon that is going to be used. i would recommend you don't under take this task if you don't have quite abit of time or aren't confident in your IT skills

Ok i will learn it by tommorow all i could about terminal services, and do you think if there is a software available which will be able to this, preferably free, or if not i wont mind paying for it.
Thankyou.

alright then while your learning about terminal server, i will begin looking into software for you for both ends both server and cleint.
