Mobile Wizard

To transfer the slideshow to your mobile phone or PDA please follow the next steps.

Configuring your Bluetooth device on your PC

If you want to connect your device via Bluetooth with your computer you have to configure the mobile device on your PC once. To do that go to Windows Start menu and click Control Panel -> Bluetooth Devices. Now the Bluetooth Device Dialog appears. Press Add Wireless Device... to execute the Bluetooth Wizard. After a successful configuration your device is ready for Bluetooth transfer.

If you connect your mobile device via Infrared or cable you can skip this step.

Start the Mobile Wizard

If you haven't done yet please open the slideshow you want to transfer with AquaSoft ® SlideShow. Then select the menu item Wizards -> Mobile Wizard to open the dialog for the transfer to your mobile device. Select the radio button Use current slideshow for my mobile device to transfer the current slideshow.

Select your device

On the following page you select the target device. You can create videos for your mobile phone or your PDA. If you cannot find a suitable profile you can configure the settings manually. Then click Next to create the video.

Before you change the settings manually please consult the user manual for your device to learn which video options your device supports. Important are especially the video resolution, as well as the supported video formats. Experiment a little with the settings to find the best possible configuration. Typical video resolutions for mobile phones are 176x144 pixels and 128x96 pixels.

Specify the title of the video

Provide a meaningful title for your video on the next page so that it can be found quickly. It will appear on the video list of your mobile device after the transfer.

Transfer the video to your mobile device

The video is now ready to be transferred to your mobile device. You have the option to transfer it via Bluetooth, Infrared or USB cable. Please create a connection to your phone or PDA. Click Search for devices to determine all devices connected to your PC.

Wireless transfer via Bluetooth/Infrared

You need a Bluetooth/Infrared receiver in your PC for wireless transfer. These interfaces are mostly in place in modern Notebooks, but if they aren't you can upgrade your computer for only a little money. Usually these devices are offered as small USB sticks.

1.	Activate Bluetooth or Infrared on your mobile device as well as on your PC. When using Bluetooth you have to register your device on your PC once (see first paragraph of this chapter)

2.	If the devices are in close enough distance to each other the connection will be created automatically. If you're using Infrared the emitters need to "see" each other. With Bluetooth it is sufficient for your mobile phone/PDA to be in the same room as your PC.

3.	Your device should appear in the list of detected devices. If you start the video transfer via the wizard you'll to accept the video file on your mobile device to allow the transfer.

Transfer via USB cable

Prerequisite for a transfer via USB cable is the recognition of your device as removable medium. Please consult the user manual of the device to see if this feature is supported.

4.	As target drive you select the drive letter that has been assigned to your device. Possibly you have to save the video to a certain folder. Please consult the user manual of your device.

Transfer using the software of your mobile device

A transfer of the video by using the software provided with your mobile phone/PDA is to be taken into consideration if you cannot transfer it wireless nor via USB cable with the wizard. At first save the video with the option Save to disk. Then launch your mobile phone/PDA software to transfer the newly created video to your device.

Not every mobile device can replay all video formats. The user manual of your device usually lists the supported formats. If you encounter difficulties replaying the video your device doesn't support its format. In this case use a different profile for the video creation and transfer the video once more.

If the transfer with the wizard doesn't work please use the transfer software that came with your device. In any case: Please consult the user manual of your mobile device. Every mobile phone/PDA is different and needs to be handled differently.

You're done

The video is now stored on your mobile device. In the last step of the wizard you have option to transfer the video to a different device or to save it to your hard drive. Select the option End wizard to finalize the process.
