I have PDF document that I want to make it as an executable flip book file with FlipBook Creator Pro. What I care is: once people open the executable file, if they donot install Adobe flash, whether it will pop-up a tip to ask people to install Adobe flash tool or not? Could anyone tell me?

hey guys im really sorry for creating this thread but I downloaded a .arm file to my comp and i synced to my tilt and my tilt wont open the file. how do i open a .arm file on my tilt? sorry for the n00b question. I searched google and no answer so i was hoping my fellow tilt brothers would help out a guy in the process of learning.
As far as I know .arm is not any format native to Windows Mobile / PPC applications.
Generally, when installing software on your device it will come in one of three forrmats:
1) .CAB file - This is like a specially designed zip file which you transfer to your device and run from your device. It contains all the information to install the files in the necessary locations, and generally also creates the proper shortcuts/icons.
2) .EXE file (PPC format) - This is an executable file for your PPC. It will only run on your PPC. If you try to run this from windows you will get an error (something like "not a valid win32 application"). This is what generally gets extracted from the .CAB file aboved and gets placed somewhere on your PPC.
3) .EXE file (Windows format) - This is a normal windows .EXE file and is generally a windows based installer for the program, much like a normal installation program for any Windows PC. When you run it, it often will place a .CAB file onto your device (or into the ActiveSync queue) to be installed. this type of EXE must be run from Windows XP/Vista itself and won't launch on the PPC directly.
If you are downloading a file different from the above from a vendor, they probably also provide instructions. I have not seen any program come in a format other than the above (unless they were also compressed with ZIP or RAR and needeed uncompressing first).
here is what the ext arm could mean
http://filext.com/file-extension/arm
but it could also be that you use some odd filemanager like file explore which dont show the right extentions and the file was called blabla.arm.cab
and explore is hiding the cab
use total commander
That does make sense. A lot of cabs for the arm architecture are called for example netcf.arm.cab. If you aren't using a good file explorer you are not gonna see the file extension. Do your note shoe note.pwi?
Are you sure it's .arm & not .amr? .amr is a media type file.
I find large file extension database here http://www.file-extensions.org
i downlaoded "mUn BackGroundMode" from this site an like all other setup.xml
files i have no idea how to install them.
can someone help me on this one.
thanks

Is the installer in the form of a .cab file? I'm willing to bet that you're opening the CAB file on your PC and looking inside it, which isn't the way to go here. You're supposed to copy the entire CAB file across onto your phone then launch the CAB file from your phone to run the installer.
can anyone help us how to install zip apllication on x1?
it is very usefull to help people never use Winmo mobile before..
Do you mean zipped application?
First unpack .zip file on the computer.
You get .cab or .exe file.
Copy to the phone and click.
install total commander
open the zip by clicking on it
as you would a dir

I don't think there is a phone that can use zipped files right out of the box, so you should first unpack the content of the zip, as you would do it on the PC.

pretty sure I've been opening ZIP files on my X1 via the default File Manager without any 3rd party software.
Although I'm guessing the original poster is getting confused between CAB and ZIP because Windows XP likes to treat them as the same.
I'v a question! Please help.
Well, if .zip file contain .cab or .exe then the procedure is lay down.
What in the case of zip files of theme or clock contain only .png file in that.
I mean, how to use such zips??
For more clarity to my question please check attachment enclosed & explain me, "In case I want to install that clock on my WM, how to proceed??"
Thanks in advance!!
You don't use the .zip, you have to copy those .png images into a specific folder.
Or maybe you downloaded the source images, i don't really know, i never installed a new clock theme or something.
Where do you have this file from?
Hi, guys
Does anyone knows where I can find a specification about the file format of .xap file, there are some guys saying that the xap file is a zip, but sounds it is not true, according to the xap files I downloaded from Windows App Store, the magic word of the xap at the beginning is "PRE"...
Any comment will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
XAP Files are Zip-Files. Your Problem is that when they are submitted to the Marketplace they are encrypted to avoid piracy. If you rename a regular XAP file created by Visual Studio to .ZIP you can open it and browse it. If you donwload it from the Marketplace you can't do anything with it.
hello...
can anyone guide me how to extract an .xap file and view its contents ?
tried renaming the extension but that didnt work, so need some expert advice to solve this...
THANKS
Until a dev responds with the proper answer, I've found this by searching : http://www.solvusoft.com/en/file-extensions/file-extension-xap/

XAP file is simply a zip file, so open with Windows Explorer or WinZip, WinRar, etc..
Well, unless it's a .XAP from the store. Then it's a Windows PlayReady container full of DRM-encrypted data which *probably* decrypts to ZIP format (but might not).
We can't open those at this time (except by having the phone install them, obviously).

i couldnt do that so simply ?
did you try it anytime ?
LOL, yes, with 1200 posts (including possibly *the* most popular one on this whole forum section) and 850 Thanks, I'm quite sure @anaheiim knows of what he speaks.
You, on the other hand, are almost certainly trying to open a .XAP from the store, didn't read *MY* post for some reason, and also didn't do much searching or other forms of research before beginning. As I said, Store XAPs are encrypted with PlayReady DRM, and we don't currently know how to decrypt them.
