I recently tried to start PicselBrowser.exe from a location other than the default one. It failed and I put it back into it`s default directory and uninstalled/reinstalled it. Now every time I turn on my Apache (WM5) it tells me ''Notification Error'' ''Cannot execute /Storage Card/PicselBrowser.exe'' which is the directory that I mentioned that I had failed to start the program from. Does anyone know how I can stop this message? Thanks.
Any ideas?
Does anyone know of a forum somewhere that would be better suited for this question?

Yes, that is a little easy to solve. I had that trouble a while back with another application I was messing with. Here is the solution.
Look into Windows>Start Up folder. In there you will probably see a .lnk file pointing to the OLD PicselBrowser.exe. Since you already moved the OLD PicselBrowser.exe file to a NEW location, then put it back in the same place. Your PPC thinks it is already a NEW file despite the fact that you returned the very same file to its ORIGINAL location. The solution is to replace that .lnk file by creating a shorcut of the NEW PicselBrowser.exe file in another folder, then rename that file to the same name as the one found in Windows>Start Up folder. The next step is a simple cut and paste to replace the lnk file.
The uninstall process probably leaves behind the OLD lnk file or notification to launch the NEW picselbrowser.exe file. So in reality, the lnk file is still searching for the OLD PicselBrowser.exe file. Despite the Uninstall procedure that you performed.
I hope I made it clear for you. Let us know if it works.
Good luck.

Thanks for the reply, I am a newb when it comes to technical PPC stuff. I looked in my startup folder and several others and found the following:
poutlook.lnk
sddaemon.lnk
Services.lnk
SpbMobileShell.lnk
None of these appear to be Picsel Browser, I also looked on my Storage Card, nata. Any other ideas? Thanks again!

Ohhhhhhhhh. I have another thoery and again very simple.
What kind of SD Card are you using? I would guess a 4GB one, isn't it? Basically what is happening is that, the built-in SD Card reader of your PPC is not fast enough to read the entire contents of the SD card when you turn it ON. To solve this issue, there should be an option from within Picsel Browser to delay its startup upon turning your device ON.
An alternative solution is to install Picsel Browser in the Main Memory rather than the SD Card.
Another alternative solution is to use a Lower Memory SD Card, say a 2GB SD Card, for faster read.
As a last resort, if you have MemMaid or a powerful Notifications Manager, just delete the pesky notification manually. Why does Picsel Browser need to be read every time you turn your device ON anyway?
Hope this helps.

Actually, I am running a 2 GB MiniSD Card and to be honest, I dont know why it is trying to activate PicselBrowser.exe each time I turn on the device. Let me clarify that it is not coming on every time that I do a soft reset, it is every time I press the power button on top of the device. Also, I got this same message when I first tried to run PicselBrowser in it's not default location, which is why I moved it back. Why it has been attempting that operation ever since is a complete mystery to me. Thanks for your help though. I would be clueless without you.
I guess the only thing to try now is delete the notification manually using a Notifications manager. BACKUP 1st is the RULE, before deleting an kind of Notifications.
Another extreme solution is Hard Reset and install from scratch. I know sounds horrifying specially if you have tons of stuff.

I'm getting exactly the same error for 'wakeup.exe' for Wisbar Advanced Desktop at the minute, I know that there has been a lot of discussion over at the lakeridge forums but most people have solved the problem by reinstalling several times.
EDIT: i think I may have fixed my problem. try installing picsel browser again without uninstalling it on your pocket pc. See if you get the message about 'all other previous versions will be deleted' just tap yes and continue to install it again. Then see what happens.
(And just as i thought i fixed it, the message appeared again)
I tried to install Picsel Browser over the existing install several times and it did nothing to the error message. I don't know what else to try, any more ideas?
Please, this is really annoying every time I turn on my phone. Any ideas?
I sitll get the same with WAD.
Hey, I fixed this problem simply by copying (NOT CUTTING) the file in question (in my case PicselBrowser.exe) to the directory that it was telling me it could not start from. Hope this helps. Cheers

Since I can't post in the q & a forum I am posting here but mods feel free to move it. So I have a wm6.1 device and a Mac computer and I regularly send files, like cab and music files with out an issue. However, today I noticed that I send a music file like usual and the file is no where to be found on the devices however space about the same size as the file is being taken up. So I send another two files(one music and one cab file) with out an issue at all. Then later on I send a cab file, but I don't see it on the device even though space is being take up. This may have happened prior to this, but I didn't realize it or something. So how can A) regain that space by deleting those files not showing up, or B) find the files that are not showing up and use them as I intended to. I am loosing space because of this. Option of last(and I mean last) resort is a hard rest which I don't like to do. Thank you....

get a good file browser and search for the missing files. You may want to use a wild card search (*.cab,*.mp3)
if you still can not find them look in the folders in /Windows and /Temp or or equivalent on the device
well i am using total commader so I dunno how good that is or not. Not to mention I have done what you suggested and even searched for files added with in the last 3 days and nothing on all fronts but yet the sapce is being taken up by something that I can't seem to find on my device. Memory maid was no help either(granted I only did a clean up). But thank you.
have you tried using the default file explorer?
I started using Awesome Drop around 2 months or so ago and it's been quite amazing. However, about 3 or so weeks ago the app just started force closing.
Each time I opened the app I'd get the following message:
"The application Awesome Drop (process com.dashwire.drop) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Has anyone else had this issue, or figured out a way to get it working again? I emailed the developers with this issue, but haven't heard a word from them and it's been over two weeks.
Same thing here....
try re-installing it.

I've reinstalled 3 times. That's not the issue. If you un-install an app, does it leave files on the phone, similar to a computer? If so, perhaps I need to do a bit a snooping and physically remove anything that was left over after uninstalling.

Installing SHOULD erase everything but go on root explorer or another folder thing and search apps name and delete anything you can find, then reinstall
I went through my SD card and couldn't find anything to delete, with the exception of the "drop" folder that contains all the files I've transferred on to my phone. So, on a hunch I decided to transfer said files to the "downloads" folder on the SD card and deleted the "drop" folder. After un-mounting my phone, I fired up awesome drop and it now works like new again.
Problem solved!

I did it so..., and it works.
A LOT OF THANKS !!!.
My problems started today when the music and video apps stopped showing anything from sd card.
Then I got 176 songs from a total of over 1000....
I already gave up on pictures but I at least thought videos and music would always work.
And I took this tablet with me to Korea so stuck with it for the foreseeable future.
I am confused, what is your question -.,-?

Anyone else having this problem?
What happens if you double-click one of the missing songs using Windows Explorer? It should play then.
It's possible that the app's library database got messed up somehow (perhaps the card lost connection while the app was running?) and needs to rebuild, which takes some time.
Hi, you might want to try this: http://www.teamradicus.com/post/Surface-and-SD-Card.aspx I had similar problems when I had my SD card mounted to a C:\SD folder (I was seeing files that do not exist and not seeing new files and applications crashed when I clicked at those non-existing files) and this helped me to resolve that issue.
Yeah, I started going song by song and got some more back that way.
Playlists never recovered.

This site does not seem to exist anymore.
EDIT NVM got the site to work.
Before I start, I was unsure where to put this thread, anyway as it wasn't an individual phone problem, I decided to put it in the general problem.
Also I have researched this problem - so I'm not wasting your time by reading this thread.
Anyway, all of a sudden my media files aren't seen on the music player or the gallery, there are pictures on there and music. I can use a File explorer and I can see all of it, just I can't see them in the music players or load them. ITS SO ANNOYING. Apparently its got to do with some .nomedia ROM manager problem, I've formated my card and put a few pictures on it, STILL NO LUCK?. After this, i re-flashed it, still same problem.
The music player detects nothing
the gallery either detects nothing OR says there is not enough space on your sd card. (well theres 3gb of space).
Thanks.
EDIT: OTHER MUSIC APPS CAN'T SEE MY MUSIC EITHER!!!
EDIT2: THE INTERNAL SD CARD MEDIA ISN'T AVAILABLE EITHER?!?
Just search,
/Emmc
Or
/mmc
On the root of your sd.
That will contain all of your data.
Hit THANKS If I Helped You.

FIXED! Thanks for responding dude,
anyway this is how I fixed it - I hope this helps someone:
The first problem was ROM manager - it put these .nomedia things on your sd cards (ex and internal), this mean't you couldn't see any media on your phone - ( which obviously meant nothing came up in gallery or music) - I followed this guide to get rid of the issue (well done Dragn4rce for making the simple guide)
