When I download the files they stay as downloaded files. How do I get them to load on to my pda if they all have the same file name (download.phb)? Help Help

Same thing happens to me. I got Clie TJ-37. Any help would be appreciated. :? a better explanation of my problem would be ...

I downloaded the pdb file and hotsync'd the pda. I can see those pdb files in the pda, but then they dont get appear in the "Play Challenge Missions" list. Any idea how to get this issue cleared out?

Did you sync the .pdb files to the main memory or to a memory card? They should be in main memory.

I think this has something to do with how your web browser handles the download. I know some people used to have this kind of problem on Macs. What kind of web browser are you using and what is your OS?

I'm just using the regular microsoft browser that came with XP. I can download the php files, but they don't turn into anything and I can't get them to go into my pda?

I am afraid I don't have any suggestions for you. I have tried to download mission packs in XP using both Internet Explorer and other browsers, and the file names come out just fine (with the .pdb extension). I don't know, but it sounds like maybe there's a setting or program on your system that interferes with the downloads...

Would it be an imposition for you to send them to me? I have set up a temporary email "Nationalsign@optonline.net". As many as you can would be appreciated. I have os4 so I can't play any multiplayer games.
The email will only be active for 24 hours.

thanks

alan :wink:

There are quite a lot of mission packs out there. Wouldn't it be easier if you made a list of the ones you want and I could send you a few to get you started?

No, I have not played these missions. I'll make a note of them, though.

Check this area of the forum, I couldn't get my zire 32 to work on the missions either, matter of fact I still can't, but I think I've finaly figured it out, I've got the missions dled on my sd card. :? I'll see about fixing that tonight. But my first problem was like yours the xtension was unreqed by the quickinstall.

From your PC browser change the file(s) .x to the .pdb then it will upload to your pda. If I can get mine to work I'll let you know what I had to do.

I'm new to PDAs, so u'll have to bare with me. :oops:

Thank you. I'll try that tonight. Your english teacher should have been drawn and quartered. I figured out "xtension"(extension) and "unreqed"(not required) but what is "missions dled" mean?
