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)
This has being bugging me for some time now
It was very easy in WinMo 6.1 but now dragging with the stylus actually scrolls up and down but does not let me select multiple files
Is there anyway that i can select multiple sequential or random files, of course using the File Explorer
My HTC Touch2 does not have a keyboard with the ctrl key
And i know i can use a 3rd party software but is selecting multiple files really thrown out of a newer version of WinMo?? :S

Thanx a lot my friend
Not to sound rude but I already know about Total Commander and installed it
My question is why Microsoft dumped a VERY VERY important feature in its File Explorer in a NEWER version of it's mobile operating system :S
That kinda sux, doesn't it ?
Hey there,
They havent dumped it just that you have to do it a different way now.
If ur in text messaging for example, click menu, options then select all/several then do what you want. Same kinda thing applies to file exp, email etc.
Remember 6.5 is supposed to be more finger friendly hence selecting this way avoids slips of the finger lol.
You'll get used to it
Cheers.
Hello everyone. I'm coming from the Infinity forums here at XDA. I jumped ship on that thing. Loving this Sammy Tab. Does anyone know how to stop or remove the tab from grabbing photos from my computer? As soon as I hit the gallery Icon it grabbed my pics. Am on Windows 7 ultimate. So I went to my media player and disabled share with other devices but alas it still finds the pictures. Then when I go to the folder to delete it/them all I get is a select file/folder option or download option. No delete option. So how do I stop and remove this folder? Thanks. Sorry if there is a thread for this already. I searched but couldn't find anything. Maybe I didn't write it out right in the search:silly:
Anyway, Thanks in advance

The Note is finding pictures that you windows pc is sharing to your network. It allows you to view them but isn't downloading them unless you hit the download button.
You can remove the network items from the view this way: Menu (from main gallery view not from withing the "folder" of pictures you want to remove) -> View By -> Content in device

There's only one problem with this method -- it doesn't stop it permanently. Every time you re-load the gallery app, it re-appears. I find it totally annoying, honestly, and wish there was a permanent way to turn it off. I leave media sharing on my Win7 PC turned on because I use apps that allow me to browse shared media for streaming/etc. I want to be able to see those photos when I want them, but not all the time, and certainly not every time I load up the gallery app.
If the app permitted you to browse network-shared media when YOU want, and could sort it in a useful way (folders, maybe?) ... then the feature would be useful. Otherwise, for me, the hundreds and hundreds of raw digital photos being cataloged each time I load the app is just plain obnoxious.
Thankfully, thus far, this is only one of a very very few annoyances with the Note 10.1! And there's always one solution -- use a different picture/media viewing app .
Nice. Thanks guys. quickpic here I come
How do I access the clipboard? I have come across it accidentally, but I really would like to look at some of the things I've saved. How do I get to it?

mnt/sdcard/Pictures, or via the Gallery, Screenshots.
You can also press and hold the area where you want to type and it will pop up next to paste. :highfive:
when the OEM keyboard is active then the botttom right key (I believe) will open it.
I'm new to tablets and so without being able to right click on something and delete it, I'm lost. I don't see anything on the screen for deleting the stuff.
Hi,
We need details on your device make and model number to point you towards help.
But usually for pics you simply click on them in your gallery and a trash can icon should appear, or click menu then delete. Sound files may require an Explorer app to locate and delete them.
Good luck!
