Need to add dictionary to Alreader e-book reader - General Questions and Answers

I like this Alreader for reading books. It says it can use various dictionaries. I have several compatible ones, Quickdic, Free Dictionary Aabby Lingvo.
I set any of these in preferences, but when I look up a word it tells me dictionary not found. I have even copied the dictionaries into the Alreader folder.
The best I can do is go to Share, where Aabby shows up, and use that. But this is not so good.
It would be great if I could add app shortcuts to the share menu, but this seems impossible also.
Could someone help me to configure a good dictionary for Alreader?

Does anyone use Alreader?

Hi,
I too had the "dictionary not found" message despite having compatible dictionaries installed. The solution for me was to is to simply uninstall the app followed by a re install
Hope that helps
Cheers

Hi
Had the same issue, googled it a bit, found a solution.
Use "English Dictionary - Offline" by Livio. Just installed it, launched AlReader and it was able to detect this dictionary and use it.
Good luck!

"Failed to load resource MSDAERRO.DLL" on my HTC Touch Pro.
Cannot find this [email protected]#$%ng file anywhere. All the old links are not working anymore. Do you know another location for it?
EDIT: I had the Regional Settings set to "Romanian". I set it to English (US) and it worked.
Thank you.

Thanks! Same problem on my Artemis -> Changed Regional Settings "to English (US)" and then it worked
Worked for me too but changing it back wont let run the VB dependent program because it doesn't like commas instead of dots in numbers. Dead oldware crap
embedded visual c++ is also free and don't suffer from pesky runtimes
VB on WM6.5
Does anybody run .vb applications on WM6.5? None of my older applications
works properly.

For me, everything works fine between eVB abd WM6.5
What's your pb ?
Doesn't work here either.

World off line and Opera

Hi everyone,
This is my first thread so I would like to say hello to everyone in this family, first of all.
OK, now the problem. I use world off line to record the news and other websites so I can read them every day when I go on the tube. For that and by default WOL uses Internet Explorer, but can someone tell me if it's posible to view WOL contents in Opera (as I like more the browser in my VGA pda). I've tried already setting up Opera as a default browser, but it still launches internet explorer.
Thank you.

Are you sure you did check in the "Set as default browser" checkbox in Opera Mobile? Try it once more and also make sure you poiwer down your PPC BEFORE resetting it (so that the Registry changes are surely flushed back to the Flash ROM)
I followed your advice but still the same, launches IE by default. I've emailed Sunnysoft to see if they can help me. I'll let you know if there is any advance.
Thank you for your help.

Cootek Touchpal, A new input method for WM Device

A new Input Method for Windows Mobile
A quick review
TouchPal is a brand new Input Method for Windows mobile which is pretty fast, accurate and convenient. But what’s best is that it is completely free for download until december 8!
In opposition to other solutions, TouchPal provides a “normal” QWERTY on-screen keyboard, with keys being easy to press with thumbs (animated gif here). In addition to that, the guys behind TouchPal have made switching from uppercase/lowercase really easy and fast: you just have to press and hold the selected letter and swipe up/down to change the case… and this is BRILLIANT!
The same technique is used to input punctuation… Making it (one of) the only input methods available where you don’t have to make a key combination or press twice to input what you are looking for.
Another deal-maker is the speed of this thing: even on an HTC Touch, I was able to get a really decent input speed (read: fast). Fire-up the video below and see by yourself!
However, you have to love the QWERTY keyboard because it’s the only one this solution provides (same goes with the predictive thing, it’s english only). I guess this will be supported somehow in the later releases.
Still, it’s the best input method I’ve used so far on Windows Mobile, and I’ll advise anyone to give it a try!

Free Download till Dec 08th
Download TouchPal here, and its documentation here.
Interesting idea, but doesnt work.
1. Installed the cab.
2. Soft reset.
3. Click the arrow, get the list of SIPS.
4. Click the TouchPal thingy.
5. Nothing happens (device seems to hang for a second or two).
This is WM6 with the Kaiser.

Did you soft-reset your device? And it is possible that TouchPal is incompatible with some other non-default soft keyboards. My friend got TouchPal work after uninstalling a Chinese keyboard and reinstall TouchPal->Soft-Reset. He decided not to go back to other keyboard, even decide to give up hardware keyboard.
yeap. step 2 there. and i dont have any sips.

do you have password setup for your device? if not, it is worthy of trying setup a password for your device. someone fixed this issue by this approach.
Can't wait
Excellent concept! Tried in on my VGA device. Got an error message saying "can't initiate dictionary" but it launched regardless. Great way to input different characters, especially between upper and lower case characters. I also like the keys to input web addresses!
Great job. Can't wait for a VGA version!

I guess you download wrong cab. "can't initiate dictionary" was a mistake and has been fixed. One of my friend encoutered this issue on several hours ago's build. He downloaded it again, seems that issue has been resolved!
So, you can try to download it again. Soft-reset your device and then install the new cab right after reboot.
BTW, VGA version is available
Great SIP! The only thing I am missing is the swedish characters åäö. I will still use it becouse it works so well.
Does anyone know if it is using the built in dictionary?
OMG i Think this will be my default SIP
On my touch it works fine. But this sip is quite haevy. Does anyone know how to create other dict for it.
i've installed on my touch and jasjar, both are working fine. of course i used the differet installer for qvga and vga.
i've uninstalled pcm keyboard for now.
Custom Words.
Simply edit the engdisct_usr.txt and add the words you want. It can be found under the \Prorgam files\TouchPal\.
In case you use non-english words, It's advisable to select " precise Input Mode" under options.

Oh, great info. I tried and found the dictionary was only loaded after WM reboot. So, adding your words, soft-reset device and then select TouchPal will make your customized words appear.
I can't get it to work. Everytime I select the keyboard under the Input Method in between the softkeys I just get the regular WM6 keyboard. I'm trying this on my Mogul. Any ideas?
SIP Change
Use this SIP Changer. I get the same issue with this SIP.

I installed it to my Kaiser, without issues. Just a detail, the SIP keeps in the screen even when the windows that instantiated it lost the focus. But is working fine.

How to access college wifi with user name & password??

Ok so they give us a password to connect to the wifi, then from there if you are on a laptop then browser automatically opens and you input a user name and password...this then connects you. I'm not too sure how to do this on my Jasjar, do i manually configure? How? Where do i input username and password because the browser doesnt automatically open for me. We are trying to connect using phones, iphones, and my ppc. How do I connect??
Thanks for reading.
Do you know what kind of authentication used in your school? It's 802.1x? Do you have to install a certificate? Try to find out more information...
Open a good browser(say opera) and try opening any site on it. This is most likely the case. You'll be auto-directed to the page where you can input the user-id and password
I have similar problem.
The VPN solution that is used needs users to authenticate via xauth, which is not supported by WM.
Does anyone have a good proposal for a client to use?
If there's no free solution I don't (really) care about the costs.

@ loiz
Thanks for the links
I tried to find some proper software myself, but apparently i did something really wrong!
The decription of the NCP Tool looks promising, as it should include everything I need. I'll give it a try (could take some days) and tell whether I've been lucky or not...
I downloaded Opera so i will try with that tomorrow...I cant understand German so i cant understand that link and cant download. Will see with Opera anyway, thanks.

You don't need to
First, on the german version of the NCP homepage youget to the downloads by clicking Downloads, then choosing Software, then the Client, that's also named english
If you can't figure out how to set up he account needed in german, just click on the little American flag in the upper right of the screen
It's present on the homepage and the downloads page.
The second link is just an instruction anyway, except for the link to the SecureW2 Client. You should find the (english) homepage of that via google. You don't need to bother downloading that if the authentication method isn't 802.11.
Thanks mate, but I tried with Opera and it works!!! Now to find a way to access msn!!

You can allways use online live messenger http://mobile.live.com/pocketpc/
Been looking for a way to get it to work at college as well.
Have got no idea what do cause we use certificates here, have one on my ppc and installed it (on sd as well as the device).
Got practically everything filled out except when selecting a certificate i get the message that there is none.
Been trying to consult the It-services desk but they have no experience whit this.
Do you have any idea which steps i should take?
Thanks in advance
Online messengers are blocked also, they use some burst filtering software or something, will check to see if i can find an unblocked site. Would be great if there was a way to allow everything. Thanks lads.

Spell-correcting dictionary

http://www.google.no/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=speliling
Anybody know of an app that corrects spelling, like google does? Preferably a dictionary which tells you what the word you were trying to type was.
I can only find normal ones
