Hi,
In my Ipaq 1910 and Ipaq 4155, I generally have chosen to install programs, pics and music on the SD card.

Therefore, I have files and programs on a 256 SD card and need to send them to a new 1 gig SD card.
I have tried to copy paste them from the PC while using a card reader. It won't allow me paste the files to a temp folder.

This must be possible to send files to a new SD card, right?

Thank you all for your help, and more importantly, thank you for this FANTASTIC SITE!!!!

You should be able to use card reader and desktop pc. Make sure the card is not write-protected (little switch on the side).

Thanks AD! The switch is un-locked.

I tried to copy the SD card files using a card reader and then tried to paste them to a folder on the PC and I can't do THAT.
Is there any other way to copy the files on the old SD card and send them to a new SD card?

Well, well, well....

I found a solution by copying each foler one at a time. Then I found ONE folder that created the problem. Turns out that ONE folder was currupt, thus I COULD NOT copy and paste ALL folders at once. One at a time did the trick.
