Touch Pro Noob needs help
 
Hello everybody, as some of you might know that I have no idea about how exactly this phone works. I couldn't even get the back cover off the first time. My question is, how do I convert .exe files into .cab files?
Thanks a bunches!

Oh and what is the best dictionary app for the phone?
I have no idea what a dictionary database is.
Sorry for the stupid questions.

I already read the manual. My only questions are that how to convert exe files to cab files and then what is the dictionary database. The taking off the back cover was like a month ago, I was just giving an example of how I don't know how to use this phone.

i completely relate.but if you enter your question in the search feature,you will be directed to several threads about what you're seeking.i would usually give you the answer but was told to help new members use that "search before posting" rule.

I already searched the dictionary database stuff but found no solution and I was really confused about the cab file thing.
I have been trying to narrow down my searches and I will try to do that again

It is all good, searching is always encouraged around here however at times for noobees and some not so noobes :mrgreen: it is difficult, so let it go and cut the dude some slack please.

If you try to run a .exe file from your desktop pc and it says "not a valid win32 app" or some such nonsense, then the .exe file can be copied over to your ppc and run from there, most likely.

As for dictionary files....I don't have a dictionary program so....

I have the same problem. That is the error I got on the desktop. I then copied it over to the ppc and attemped to run it. When I press on it, nothing happens. So, how do you run the exe on the ppc?

BTW when I googled how to do this, it sent me here.
