Where Do Cab Files Go?? Help!!!! - Motorola Q Forum

mrjingles · 09-08-2007, 10:39 PM

\Ok, I feel stupid and a bit frustrated. Where do cab files go. I'm trying to load Jeyo Personalizer and I'm at a complete loss. I've unzipped the files to my desktop and then copied them, but I have no idea where they go and what to do after. Please someone give a step by step for dummies.

.cab files need to be copied to the Q, for example in the temp folder, execute them with the File Manager on the Q. it will install the program... when done the .cab file no longer required but it is a good idea to save it somewhere in case you'll need it again.

Thanks for the help, but it's not working. I unzipped the files to my desktop, went to Activesync and explored to my desktop and copied the files to my root folder. I found the setup file (_setup.xml) under File Manager and pressed ok and it went to the web and downloaded a big list of commands that did absolutely nothing.

you are not reading what i am saying my friend... do NOT upzip anything usless it is a .zip file ("regular" Windows sees no difference between .cab and .zip/.rar)

read my initial reply again and follow the steps without the copying.

Oh Man, how stupid am I? I got it now. I just wasn't thinking it through.
Thanks so much for the guidance!
