    where do I find this video?

  • Mike Benton said:

    DJ Revler, I use Adobe Elements to put the video together and then run it through movie maker for the banners. You can play with the colors, fonts and sizes a bit to get what you want.

    Caloberg, just click on the image above from a desktop browser.

    So Mike… is there any way to see the video from the Shadow?

  • caloberg said:

    As I do not see it, and my internet is through the Shadow.

  • David said:

    Does anyone else have trouble with WMP errors when trying to sync the shadow? They typically happen anytime I’m putting more than just an album or two on my shadow’s card. Any fixes?

    hey im having problems instaling any of the software giving in this site and any other site for my tmobile shadow, when i zip it doesnt have a setup

  • Mike Benton said:

    caloberg, search for ‘how to watch online video’ on this site.

    felipe, you should be seeing a file that ends in .cab somewhere. Run that.

    It took 35 minutes to sync 7 of 401 songs. So slow, or is it just my computer? I had to stop it.

  • David said:

    gabby, mine is really slow too. And I’m positive its not my computer.

  • Mike Benton said:

    gabbylu, that number is definitely not right. There is a lot that could be causing this. Is anything else syncing to the phone at the same time? Are you syncing over bluetooth or a cable? Is the cable cracked or bent or otherwise have damage to it? Your computer might be older and have USB 1 instead of USB 2 which is a lot faster.

    What else is going on with your computer at the same time?

    The sync can take awhile if you are doing it through activesync but not that long directly from WMP. I was able to go straight from WMP to my card but if they need to be convert that could take alot of time too
