Mobility Site - View Single Post - Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator won't work with my Dell Axim. .

Hi,

I recently sent this message to Microsoft:

"As I am in the possession of a PDA (Dell Axim X30 624 Mhz) that runs on the OS: Microsoft Pocket PC 2003, I am having trouble with your software program: “Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator”.

With this program I conversed successfully a picture on my desktop to a “theme” which is meant to be transferred to my PPC. But each attempt in transferring this picture, your software gives me the following message: “the connected device is not running Pocket PC 2002. Unable to download the skin. Your theme has been generated successfully, but there was a problem transferring it to your Pocket PC 2002. Correct the problem and press Finish again.”

To be specific: I have installed several other software programs (other developers) on my PPC that warned me, while being installed, that the program may not work properly because it was meant for an earlier OS. But, all the programs are working fine without any problems. Therefore, I do not understand why your software is working so strict and keeps asking me for Pocket PC 2002.

Can you please help me to solve this problem or where to get an update or patch to let “Microsoft Theme Generator” also work with PPC 2003 devices such as mine?"

Today, I received this answer from Microsoft:

"This software is unsupported at this time, so there are no updates or support for it. I suggest you visit Aximsite and see if anyone there has had the same problem and could help you."

(Thank you, Microsoft for this helpful reply) :realmad:

So, I guess my question to you will be obvious: Is there anyone who can help me out here using “Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator” together with the same PDA or at least the OS PPC 2003 ? May be by using another (freeware?) program such as "Theme Generator"...

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you!

Robert
