Fri Jun 04, 2010 3:48 am ** Newbie Tips! **
Playing around on my new Archos 7, I playedaround with it for quite a bit figuring stuff out. I thought maybe thesetips might help some new users. As I discover more stuff I will updatethis post.
Where the Eff ismy SD Card??
Ok, so this drove me nuts for a while... Whenyou plug in your Archos via USB cable and mount it, you only get 1removable drive listed. If you look on the Archos settings, under SDCard, It shows you have "Unavailable" and a grayed out Unmount SD Cardoption. So where is it??? Well, when you connect to you PC and you seethe Archos, you will see a folder called "SDCARD". This is your SD Card!Anything you copy into this folder will be on the root of your SD Card.
Changing the Background!
Ok,this stumped me for a while. For some reason when I did it like on my G1Phone, regardless of what area I chose with the selection box, thispicture always looked like ass. Blah Blah Blah, here is what I did toget my picture to fill the screen.
1) Resize your picture to800x480.
2) Copy it over to your A7 however you feel mostcomfortable. I used ES File Explorer (I will get to this app in asecond).
3) Long Press on the screen and pick Wallpaper.
4) PickPhoto
5) Here is the important part! DoNOT open the picture! Long Press on the picture and choose "Setas Wallpaper"
Done.
Connecting to a Shared Folder in ES File Explorer
1)Open ES File Explorer. Where you see the "local" button, press it.
2)Choose LAN. It will tell you to go to "Settings - New" and setup a newconnection.
3) On the top right ofthe screen, press the three white bar icon. This will open theSettings up.
4) Press New, and a little menu will pop up.
5) Inputthe IP on the computer with the shared folder, followed by the foldername.
Example:192.168.1.12/shared
6) You probably don't have to put in anyuser name and password if you are on your home network, but you willneed to know this info!
7) If everything went ok, you should now havea little connectoid. Press it, and you should see your shared files.
8)Long Press a file and push Copy.
9) Click on the LAN button on thetop right, and choose "Local".
10) Pick a folder where you want tocopy the files, and press the Up arrow on the tab on the bottom of thescreen.
11) Long Press a file, and copy it.
That should do it=P
If I think of anything else, or come across any moreweirdness, I will post it here. Help this helps some of you guys whojust got their Archos 7!
