You cannot convert file format by simply changing extension. It will not change the file itself, only the name. If you are a Windows user you can simply get Picasa from Google (it’s free) or any other of a whole bunch of free picture managers and/or editors and convert all you want. Even basic Paint has an option to “Save as…” and you can choose a format. But you have to convert, not only rename the file.

I found "File Converter Free" at Play Store. But it will upload your file to cloud, convert it and download back to phone. I do not like this kind of solutions to be honest. And I haven’t found any software that would do the conversion on the phone. Sorry

Or, Tillanosoft's is even simpler....
http://tillanosoft.com/
However Tillanosoft's cannot open files larger than 300kb.. Which actualy sucks and I don't see any use for it then (and better not talking about their tgetfile). I can open files up to 100kb and more in PocketIE...

Neither Orneta Notepad is perfect. If I choose go to the end of cca 300 kB TXT document, it just dont do anything. It sucks. Have to use Documents To Go for editing these larger files.
Yeah it sucks. I just need to open and not edit the document (Notepad x Lister in Windows XP). But like in Windows, it opens for editing... So I also have to use DTG for opening larger text files...

Hmmmm...hard to imagine. The 920 is being marketed as an ultimate business tool. They certainly have it locked up from every angle. MicroShaft did it on purpose. The ability to attach files is the most basic email tool there is. I did find a temporary solution however, I converted a PDF file to a JPEG file, then hooked up the phone to my laptop, COPY and PASTE the converted file into "SAVED PICTURES" and i can now send the converted PDF in an email attachment successfully via the hotmail or gmail app via the "PHOTOS" folder and you can view it just fine on a desktop or laptop, It will work until I figure something else out. Thanks for the input, keep us posted if you come up with anything! IF IT CAN BE CREATED BY MAN IT CAN BE HACKED BY MAN!!!

Not the best solution, but you can send .PDF files through the office app. Just long press on the document you want to send and then share by email or whatever you want. Unfortunately, you can only send one file at a time which is kind of lame.
As for the file manager...I'm dying for one too.:crying:
i really want to be able to browse files!

[Q] Sync one file too two different folders?

So here is the thing, my so LOVES minecraft and I turned a creative land to a survival one on his tablet.
He thought that was so cool but then was quick to ask "why when I make a change in one won't it make the change in the other".
Well I thought about it and it would be a simple matter of syncing the one file to both folders..
So is there an app for that ?

Hoping to get a new set of eyes.
I gave previously synced mine craft games with Dropbox between two computers. Is that what you are seeking? It works for Windows and Linux, hence android too, cross compatible.

I think this would better suit your needs.

That would make two folders appear as one by pointing folder a at folder b.
Same principle as with the HOSTS file in Windows, and DNS lookups

Exactly. It works the same with files as well. You can create a symlink to a file in a folder, so when changes are made to the file in folder A, they are reflected in the file of folder B. It's basically the same file, but accessible from both folders. Each person would be able to make changes to that single file.
On the other hand, if you want just want a copy of the file that is completely independent of the changes made by the other user, then the Dropbox tutorial would probably be better suited...or you could just copy the file.

Need an app that can convert pptx to pdf locally

I use my note for school and most files are in pptx format, but to take notes on them, I use pdf. There are many conversion apps out there but they all do the conversion on the Web. The problem is my Internet here on campus is horrible. Uploads take forever so local conversion is better for me.
Currently I am using office suite pro (free) and going to print preview, then navigating though the file structure to find the file, then copying that to the location I need it. It's a pain to do. Any ideas on apps that can do this?

Oops. Screwed up the title.
The problem with those apps is they both upload to the cloud and then download again which I cannot do.
