I copied and pasted this from somewhere which I dont recall. The only issue
I had was I use Resco Explorer and it wouldnt copy the file (says its in
use). PPC native explorer works perfectly though.
Follow these instructions and you should be able to
install Money for the
PPC (2003 version):
1. With the PPC in the cradle and ActiveSync running,
start the installation
of Pocket Money for Money 2003 on the desktop.
2. Go through the normal install routine, following the
prompts on the
desktop machine.
3. When the PPC pops up an error message, don't clear it.
Instead, open File
Explorer on the PPC. (I don't know if the error message
needs to remain
open,
but without having experimented, I suggest leaving it on
screen for now.)
4. Browse to "My Device /Windows /AppMgr /Install" and
tap-and-hold on the
file that is in that folder. (This is the one caveat...
your folder may end
up
being different, but something tells me that this is the
folder you should
look in). The file should be obviously related to Pocket
Money.
5. When the menu appears, choose copy.
6. Still using File Explorer on the PPC, browse to "My
Device /Temp" and
paste the file in this new folder.
7. Once the file appears in this new folder, single tap
the file. The
installation will begin on its own.
8. Close the error message from the original installation.
9. After you have successfully installed Money, with the
PPC in the cradle,
explore the PPC (use Explore from within ActiveSync).
10. Browse to "My Device /Windows" and look for "MoneyCE".
11. Right click on this file and choose "Create a
shortcut".
12. Move this shortcut to "My Device /Windows /Start
Menu /Programs" to
finish the install.
13. Rename this new shortcut as "Microsoft Money".
14. Remove the PPC from the cradle. Check the settings
for the Money Conduit
in ActiveSync, place the PPC back into the cradle, and
away you go.
