Windows CE Pocket PC


The Pocket PC program is included with the PC desktop program. To download the package go to our programs page.

Recommended hardware:

Dell Axim 51v

  • has VGA screen for extremely sharp text.
  • The text on the quarter size VGA is not as sharp or as easy read as in a full VGA screen.
  • optional SD memory to hold Online Bible files.
  • Unit comes with 256K already so can easily handle most of the Online Bible the average user would require.

Prerequisites:

1. You must have your Pocket PC installed and syncing with your desktop before you install this version.

  • Palm OS is not supported. However, the program runs on Palm hardware that supports Microsoft .Net like the Palm Treo phone.
  • There are no plans to port this program to the native Palm OS.
  • The program is written in C# and requires .Net 2005 plus ActiveSync 4.0 or later.
  • If your phone is not a "Pocket PC Phone Edition", our program will not likely work on it.
  • If you do not have a touch screen, you will not like this program.

2. You must have ActiveSync 4.0 or later installed. Go to Microsoft for the latest version.

  • Select the appropriate language version and download. ActiveSync installs the RAPI.DLL which the Online Bible uses to communicate with your Pocket PC.
  • If you have trouble syncing with your Pocket PC with the Online Bible then update your ActiveSync from the Microsoft web site.
  • After installing ActiveSync you should be able to see your Pocket PC listed under My Computer and you should be able to view its file directories.
  • If you cannot, then the next step of installing the latest version of Compact Framework will not work and the Pocket Online Bible will not work on your device.

3. You must have .Net CF 2.0 or later installed on your Pocket PC. You can download it from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9655156b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&displaylang=en

If you get the following message when you try to run the application:

"This application (PocketOnlineBible) requires a newer version of the
Microsoft (r).NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device."

You will need to install the latest version of .Net Compact Framework.

If you cannot get .Net installed without error messages, our program will not work. We need .Net to function correctly.

4. Not all modules are supported. Make sure you have the latest material from this web site.

  • Under the desktop menu Tools/Module Status, you will find a list of modules with newer copies on our web site.
  • The old .Olb images are not supported.
  • If your CD is older than 2005, you should update it. Click here to go to our ordering section for the latest CD.

Installation:

  • To install the program, go to the Tools menu of the Online Bible and select "Configure Pocket PC."
  • If this option is not enabled, update your ActiveSync. Install these modules on your SD Card or Flash memory.
  • The existing version 2.0 desktop modules are 100% compatible with the Pocket Online Bible.

Only modules in the Starter Pack and Maps are installed. Other selections are ignored.

If you buy an unlock code you may load any number of modules onto your Pocket PC.

Unlike other PDA Bible programs, we charging you only once to recover the cost of program development.
We are not charging you for each module.
