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.

Hey, I'm looking for the best remote control software to use on the kaiser. (to control your desktop pc from ppc)
Any suggestions?
I use https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp
It works a treat and it's free.
Yes, another vote for LogMeIn Free.
Also check out http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Access your desktop PC from your Pocket PC! for more info, it explains everything
And yess, another one goes fo rlogmein...
great solution !!
my only problem with logmein is when I log in with PIE sometimes i have to enter my user name and PW about 40-50 times until it logs me in. it keeps throwing me back to the login screen without any message why. i posted a logmein tech support and no response. I tried this on different browsers (PIE/opera/webfront) and got the same results.
other than that, logmein is great.
real vnc enteprise, and realvnc mobile.
connect to REMOTELY with wifi, I use this for everything (IM, Downloads, Etc)
takes little experience to set up, pretty straight forward

If you REALLY want to go the VNC way, use PT Pocket Office instead. It uses way lessbandwidth and is way better.
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.
I'm trying to Remotely access my computer with Remote Desktop Mobile. I have it built into my ROM and was browsing Youtube and saw Windows XP on this guys PDA..obviously RDM. What do I have to do to set this up. Thanks.

What is so special about the video, can you post the link? If your on your home network on wifi you can remote to your pc or connect thru the data connection if you have a public box.

See this link for how to enable remote desktop on your PC, how to setup your router/firewall to allow it to connect to the outside world and DDNS services for name resolution. I've briefly read through it and have confirmed it provides all that you'd need to set up Windows XP to allow remote desktop connectivity from any device (RDP capable phone, Linux, PC, Mac, etc.)
If you need specific help for Vista, I'm sure Google will give you what you need, if you change my search parameters "remote desktop firewall" to include 'Vista'. I still think the link given above will still be of use, Vista or not...
Hope this helps!
there a reason you dont want to use the free edition of logmein.com ?
Im d/l'ing log me in right now. Thanks man appreciate it
can you tell me what setting you have on your tilt. So i can use the screen space on my phone to the max without making it look weird.
ok i didnt seach threads extensively but i figured this was an easy question to answer.
i downloaded RDM and installed the cab onto my phone. on the program i have the options for:computer, user, password, and domain. Is there a part two of the app to run on my computer?
im trying to connect to a computer running windows 2000.
You will need do enable Remote Desktop on your PC. Here is a link how to do it:

Is your computer running Windows 2000 Professional or Server?
Professional does not support remote desktop/terminal services connections.
Server needs to be enabled in Add/Remove Programs, Windows Components. It will be called Terminal Services and somewhere along the way you will be asked what mode to install it in. Be sure to choose remote administration mode, not application mode.
ok the link you gave was for windows xp? does that make a difference?
i think i have windows 2000 pro. its deff not a server. i managed to get
a program called remote desktop 2.0 to access my computer by opening ports, however this program views the desktop in full color and is very laggy and slugish.
RDM aside is there any really good remote desktop program to use? i if you could help me set it up i would really appreciate it.
ive used logmein in the past, however this is like a six step process and i would prefer something simpler like a program.
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

Thankyou.
