Are you using vista?
Yes using vista.... But they showed before 6.1 so why would that make a difference? Anyway to change the setting?

Make sure you are able to view System hidden folder. Believe its under tools and viewing options. Just make sure hide system folders is unchecked.

On the phone or Vista Computer... I can't find setting in either place. I'm on the "my computer" on vista and the phone I searched all settings to view hidden files... I can see it under total commander, but when viewed from Vista, those files are hidden.
With WM6.0 they were not hidden.... weird... Has to be a tweak to change this..

Hi all, just did a search on the forums, and didn't see anything. So here goes. How do you uninstall intellipad? It doesnt appear in the remove programs bit...does it need doing manually, if so...how would one go about doing thins?
if it start automaticly then looking in windows\startup or what ever that dir is for the shortcut to the program and remove the shortcut and
then remove the files and reg'd it use would be the same thing as what remove programs does
you could also look in the pc activesync's add remove programs if it was installed using activesync
Couldnt find anything to do with it in shortcuts. I think all the program files are residing in the windows directory. Does anyone know which keys from the registry, would rather know for sure rather than guessing?
looking in Windows Directory and there's a lot of file IntelliPad.***
Yes I have seen the intellipad files there, its the registry keys im not sure of.
i recently got an htc tmobile shadow, and there are currently three or four programmed themes on it. however, ive learned that you can add more, so i did a search and downloaded a couple .tsk files that are themes.
i cant figure out how to put it on my phone, so ic an use the downloaded themes. any help, please?
place them into the windows directory and then select the theme from start/settings/personal/today

Ok connect your phone to your computer with either Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1(Windows Vista) or Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5(Windows XP) and then copy the tsk files you downloaded to your phone's Windows Folder using file explorer.
Once you have them copied to that folder, then you should click on the start menu and click settings. From there click personal and then click the Today icon. In that directory you should be able to select the new theme.
Have a look at this forum: http://shadow.myfreeforum.org/
They are specifically for the shadow. The shadow is not a Wizard so that's why my advice isn't helping you.

If the tsk file is now in your phone's windows directroy go to:
Start > Settings > Personal Tab > Today
This will show you the list of themes that are installed. Select the one you want and click OK. It will take a second to change the settings.
using a the computer u can only acces the windows directory on the phon threw windows xp, it dosent work on vista...
Atleast that what I have seen

Shadow is a smart phone i think. I dont think .tsk files will work. You can change the back ground picture, thats about it.
Please bear with me, as this is my first windows mobile phone and I'm not all too familiar with it.
First problem is, tapping "Launch Browser" on the Internet tab does not work. After thinking about it for a while, I realized that the Opera browser was not installed on my device! Now, as far as I know, it should come already in all devices. So, I downloaded the Opera 9.5 browser off their website. How can I set it up so when I tap "Launch Browser" on the Internet tab, Opera 9.5 will automatically run? Currently tapping it still does nothing.
Second is, I've been hearing about this "Windows" folder in the HTC Touch Pro. I can't seem to locate this. When I browse for it with my computer, the name of the TP's "hard drive" is "\", and then I see the following folders:
Application Data, ConnMgr, Content, Documents and Settings, Music, My Documents, Program Files, cemail (hidden file), pim
Is this root folder the "Windows" folder?
Third thing is, in the "Programs" tab in TF3D, there's this icon there that when I press (looks like the default icon for a folder in Vista), it gives me an error. It says "The file 'wt5jetpr' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
There we go, that's all. Thank you, if you've read this far.
I can't help with the Opera thing but as for your Windows folder, it's a system file and hidden. You will have to unhide it in your Vista/XP operating system before you can see it using your PC>
You see, I already enabled the viewing of hidden folders. There aren't any other items other than the ones I listed.
EDIT: I tried creating a folder called "Windows" and Vista tells me I can't, because a folder of the same name already exists.
That's weird.. hidden folders are already enabled and I still can't see it.
Hiya, i'm a bit of a noob myselft with regards to wm6.1 so for the opera issue i dont think i could be much help with that same with the file that wont delete so i hope someone else will answer that, to see ur windows folder though when the phone is connected to the pc open up explorer on ur pc and click on tools/folder options then click on view and make sure either the "hide protected operating system files" box is unchecked &/or the "show hidden system files box is checked and this should let you see the windows folder.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: looks like someone already answered in the time it took me to type that, my own fault for multitasking ...

Same thing as you, when I browse to the device from Windows Explorer.
However, if I go to Tools - Folder Options - View tab and I select "Show hidden files and folders", the Windows directory is displayed.

By the name, it looks like it is JetCet Print 5.
Strange you have these errors. Do you use a custom ROM?
PS: been too slow to answer too. but at least the answers match ;-)
I'm not using a custom rom =\. The rom came with my device.
It's:
1.90.405.1.WWE
It's a HTC Touch Pro T7272
Then I advise you to do a Hard Reset. Opera and JetCet print should be there, and should not give you any certificate errors.
I advise you to read a lot these forums, gather as much info as you can, and experimenting with your device. You have a powerhouse in your hands, you know? you have unlimited possibilities. Any questions should you have must be asked.
Alright, I'll give that a try tomorrow after the day's gone so I have lots of time to figure things out.
Sorry for the double post, but I figure this message won't get read if I simply edit my last post.
Anyways, I hard resetted the device and I got Opera and that printing program working! Thanks creiz.
Just one last thing I'm trying to figure out.. is there any way I can get a custom alarm ring tone without downloading a program? (I'm trying to avoid having to do that if possible)
Hello,
I'm having a hard time locating the \windows folder to change the audio for my alarm clock? When the device is connected via ActiveSync, the folder should be
"HTC Touch Pro" \windows correct? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
EDIT: The only folder I see are Application Data, ConnMgr, My Documents, Documents and Settings and Program Files.
It defaults you to "\My Documents" not "\". You need to go "Up" a level.
Moved to TP general.
EDIT: (Seen as though you edited )
In Windows (not mobile) do you have Show hidden files / folders turned on?

The windows file on my TP is hidden so I have to unhide the hidden files and folders in Explorer on my PC first. Then it is where you said it should be.

It's should just be folder options.. "same was an issue with Vista users so imagine same tweak"
Show Hidden Folders & Untick hide protected Operating System Files should do it

Yes it won't with just show hidden folders, have to see protected file system
If you cannot see the Windows folder on your computer then go to 'Control Panel > Folder Options > View Tab' and select "Show Hidden Files and Folders" and also UNCHECK the box next to "Hide protected operating system files".
I'm sure the same is applicable for 7
