This is the first "high tech" phone I've ever owned and I love it!  I just wish I knew how to do more with it.   My sister lost my cd and my book so I am having a really hard time learning how to do things.  I would like to know how to download apps like Yahoo! Messenger and a few others but, once again, my instructions have conveniently vanished!  Hope to learn lots!!

Welcome to the site Smiley  Glad you joined us.

There are 2 ways to install programs and applications to your phone.



1) Cab file

-First, transfer the cab file to your storage card or device, using a card reader or through the provided data cable.

-Second, using your "File Explorer," navigate to the location where you saved the cab file and click it.

-Third, you should see a screen pop up asking you if you would rather save it to your device or to your storage card.  People have their own preferences on this so it is your decision to make.

-Fourth, After installation is completed go to the Start menu then to Programs and you should find it in that list.


2) An .exe file

*Windows Vista

-Install Windows Mobile Device Center.  If you did not receive a disk with your Touch Pro then you can download the program here :
32-bit - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=46F72DF1-E46A-4A5F-A791-09F07AAA1914&displaylang=en
64-bit - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=4F68EB56-7825-43B2-AC89-2030ED98ED95&displaylang=en

- After installing WMDC, connect your phone to your computer via the data cable provided with your phone and open Windows Mobile Device Center.

- Click the .exe file on your PC and follow the installation instructions.  Once you have followed the instructions on your PC you will be prompted to install the program to your device or to your storage card.  The choice is yours.

- After installation is completed go to Start Menu then click Programs and you should find the program there.


Windows XP

- Install Active Sync.  You can find the download here :
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/eulas/eula_activesync45.mspx?ProductID=76

- After installing ActiveSync, connect your phone to your computer via the data cable provided with your phone and open Active Sync on your PC.

- Click the .exe file on your PC and follow the installation instructions.  Once you have followed the instructions on your PC you will be prompted to install the program to your device or to your storage card.  The choice is yours on where to install the program.

- After installation is completed go to Start Menu then click Programs and you should find the program there.




You can find applications on this site at the following link :

I have been away for over a month so the list needs to be updated but I will do so within the next couple of weeks. 




Meanwhile you can also download WM Marketplace from this link :

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/get-marketplace.mspx

From that application you can sort by price.  There are lots of freeware available.




Another good one is OMarket.  Which is all free apps.
