PPC Registry

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I notice that in the 7/7/05 post by Urp entitled "How to make ActiveSync
synchronise WAV recordings", he/she mentions editing the PPC registry. I
can't even find the registry in my PPC (Dell Axim X30). How do I find it &
what executable is available to edit the registry?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Clinton:
Thanks for the references. The second one looks decent, and I don't plan to
do too much editing (while I've probably edited the registry on my desktop a
few hundred times, I'm new to PPCs.:-)

I saw your advice on backing up my device. I noticed that the options on my
Dell Axim X30 allowed backing up Data only, not the whole system. I also
couldn't find an option to back up to my desktop. As my built-in storage is
only 32MB & I use my 1 GB storage card for maps, do you know if it's
possible to back the entire system up to my desktop (& then restore via
Active Sync, if necessary)?

Thanks again. I appreciate your time.

Hi Clinton:
Thanks so much for your reply. It took all of 20 seconds to do a full
backup to my desktop. I never thought of looking in the Active Sync menus
on my desktop...only on the PPC.<g>

Yes it does. It just gives you a message on installation because it doesn't
recognise any OSes newer than 2002.

As far as the majority of users of this forum are concerned, any and all
forms of replies are welcome as it is important that the focus be on
solving problems, not on the format of the message or responses.

In addition, the "rules" you refer to make it difficult, if not
impossible, to read and follow any thread using the actual subject of
this forum, a pocketpc or any other pda, not to mention the additional
and unnecessary increase in connect time costs for those connecting via
cellular networks.

Finally, modern newsreaders pretty eliminate the need for those outdated
"rules"

Good gosh....

Let it go... there is no "rule" for top or bottom posting. This is a public
forum (hence the microsoft.PUBLIC.pocketpc) with a million newsreader appls
out there...

Get a scrolling mouse... ;-)

Of course there is, RFC1885: Netiquette guidelines.
http://www.dtcc.edu/cs/rfc1855.html

3.1.1 General Guidelines for mailing lists and NetNews

- If you are sending a reply to a message or a posting be sure you
summarize the original at the top of the message, or include just enough
text of the original to give a context. This will make sure readers
understand when they start to read your response. Since NetNews,
especially, is proliferated by distributing the postings from one host
to another, it is possible to see a response to a message before seeing
the original. Giving context helps everyone. But do not include the
entire original!

The RFC is informal, meaning that bottom-posting is not *the* standard,
however, it makes it a standard opinion (since AFAIK no contrary opinions
have been written).

IMHO it's far more natural to read document in one direction, especially
in long threads, instead of having to continualy scroll down to see the
original text and scrolL up to read the reply.

>forum (hence the microsoft.PUBLIC.pocketpc) with a million newsreader appls
>out there...

M$ bears a lot of the blame for the proliferation of top-posting by
placing the insert point *and* the signature above the quoted text by
default and in some cases makes it difficult *not* to top-post. So the
lazy users just top-post above the *whole* previous post instead of
cleaning up the previous post to include just the relevant parts. Not to
mention that M$, in its usual infinite wisdom and arrogance breaks RFC
concerning signature separator.

Check out http://www.caliburn.nl/topposting.html for a good page
describing why bottom-posting is better than top-posting (some of the
points I've made are also there).
