Chapter 6 Connecting to a desktop PC 53

To browse the HP Jornada desktop

1.On the File menu of the ActiveSync window, click Explore. Windows Explorer opens the Mobile Device folder.

You can cut, paste, and copy files between folders on the P/PC, or transfer files between the P/PC and your desktop PC, simply by dragging the file icons between the appropriate folders.

Transferring files between your P/PC and the desktop PC

All files you create on your P/PC, such as Voice Recorder and Note Taker files, are stored in the My Documents folder. You can see these files by double-clicking your P/PC icon in the ActiveSync window on your desktop computer.

You can copy files between the HP Jornada and desktop PC in two ways:

•by dragging icons to or from the P/PC icon in the ActiveSync window on your desktop PC

•by using the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands on the Edit menu

Transferring Note Taker files

When Note Taker files are copied to the desktop computer, ActiveSync converts them to .doc files, and they can be opened in Microsoft Word. Similarly, when Microsoft Word (.doc) files are copied to the P/PC, ActiveSync converts them to Note Taker (.pwi) files.

Transferring Voice Recorder files

Voice Recorder files remain .wav files on both your P/PC and desktop computer. Synchronization gives you a handy way to move your Voice Recorder files to your desktop computer.

A special playback codec, provided with the ActiveSync installation, is needed to play P/PC .wav files recorded in Mobile Voice format on your desktop computer. PCM files can be played on any desktop PC.
