Briefcase folder VS
I have reinstalled Windows on a new hard drive installed in my old Dell from the original cd. Now when I try to create a new folder by right-clicking on a folder existing and selecting 'New' the only choice I get's Briefcase. Before you install the new hard drive, I had the choice of the folder or Briefcase. How to bring back the choice of the folder?

Accidentally removed form office "My Briefcase".
Although the "Briefcase" appears as an icon on your desktop, it's actually a folder. You can use Windows Explorer to display the folder and all its contents. The path is usually:
C:\Documents and Settings\nom Name\Desktop\Briefcase
When you delete a file or folder in Windows XP, the deleted item usually moves to the basket. Open your trash. If that is the case, you can restore it to its normal position.
If you have emptied the Recycle Bin, then the previous Briefcase folder will not be available - and you will need to create another.

Briefcase has left an empty copy after I moved it.
I noticed a strange behaviour in my computer, specifically the Briefcase folder. When I created the folder, the first icon I see is regular folder icon, until I pressed the Enter key. If I moved by using the cut command, it is moved to another location, and I'm more in its first position. But when I do one Briefcase with the same name in the same place, it is named new portfolio 2. When I close and re-open the folder where it is located, the previous portfolio appear, although its empty and the icon is a regular folder, not on the Briefcase icon. Similar to when the file has been moved, he left a copy empty and not visible until I make another folder of Briecase with the same name. If anyone can help me explain why and how to get rid of the copy.
Hello ma.slzr
Portfolio such as implemented in Vista has serious problems, and it seems that they are not going to be fixed. The reason may be that, in practice, the case is obsolete.
If you must use Briefcase in Vista, create a new Briefcase object each time, rather than stick a former. Use the new command on the desktop to create, and then use Windows Explorer to move it to the destination folder before adding files to synchronize. Even in this case, in my experience, portfolio won't be reliable. Often, it crashes and it loses files. Prior to Vista, I used the Briefcase for years without problem. On Vista, it was nothing but trouble.
Fortunately, Microsoft provides a new and much better synchronization tool called Toy Synch. You can find it here:
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=c26efa36-98E0-4ee9-a7c5-98d0592d8c52
Synch toy 2.1 is more flexible and more powerful than the Briefcase. I use it all day on Vista and would highly recommend it.

BlackBerry smartphones peut records BB Storm 9530 Sync
I was able to sync media (photos, music and videos) and Outlook (calendar, tasks, and contacts) with no problems, but I was not able to determine whether or not I can sync a folder of files such as 'My Documents', containing MS Word and Excel Documents. I would like to be able to synchronize this folder with my desktop and laptop so when I make a change to a file on either, it will update them when I sycn BB Storm. I could do with my VX-6700. Please help if you can...
Well, another good fix proposed by bifocals!
It worked very well. Here's a link that discusses the use of the Briefcase in Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307885
I started with my office by creating a 'New Briefcase' folder in 'My Documents '. I then copied all the documents I want to sync between my office, Storm and laptop and then paste in the folder "new portfolio."
From there on, I used Desktop Manager from Blackberry to synchronize my Storm with my office. Once synchronized, I clicked on "Media" and then "Media Manager". Once inside the "Media Manager", I opened my media card in "Devices" on the right side of the screen. Then, I went to the upper left of the screen and clicked on the icon of the folder ("issues"). From then on, I looked for from the drop down menu files until I find "My Documents", then "new portfolio." Then, I clicked on "New portfolio" so that its content/folders appear on the right.
I then "copied down' content/folders on the memory card in 'Folder of Documents' of the press card.
Now, whenever I want to access a document on my laptop, I connect my Storm and find the document on my press card. Once I'm done making changes, I save the changes to the media card.
Later, when I get home, I connect my Storm to my office, resync, then 'copy to the top' all documents in the folder "New portfolio" on my desktop. This will automatically update the files that I had changed. I 'copy to the top' all documents, so I don't need to worry about remember what documents I've changed.
If I decide to save my documents on my laptop, instead of simply using the laptop to view and edit my docs, I'll probably consider creating a folder "New portfolio" on this subject. This would help preserve the current docs on both sides.
Bifocal thanks!
