Ya, but its asking me what do open it with even before the download completes. I selected my photoeditor but when it trys to open it, it says invalid format.

B/c I selected photoeditor as what to use to open these type of files, it won't ever work. How do I unmake it where photoeditor isn't used to open these sort of files? Thanks!

After you click the link to download the file, do NOT pick "open", pick "save", then save the .tsk file somewhere on your desktop and follow the rest of the instruction.
It's the 2nd faq on one of the the link above, please read it again if you still have problem:

sync up with your PC

open my computer , then click on your moble device ... you should then have a window with the files/folders on your iPaq ... then open a new explorer window, or click My Computer icon again .. find the file you want to use .. drag onto your iPaq window .. drop .. now the file will convert for use on moble device .. ..

now the file is on your iPaq...


hit Start > Settings > then tap the Today icon ... then check (by tapping) the 'Use this picture as the backgroud' check box , that is located at the bottom of the new screen .... then hit 'Browse' you'll then see a new screen with all .jpg that are on the iPaq .. select the one you just moved over from your PC ..

after you select it .. -OK- out . . . the picture will now be on your 'desktop'
