  • Application Description

    FileZ is the premiere freely available file utility for Palm OS. It gives you full access to your handheld's files, system info, and preferences. The intuitive file browser allows you view, edit, copy, move, delete and send any file located on your handheld or an external card such as Secure Digital (SD) cards or Memory Sticks. FileZ also includes extensive system information, such as memory usage and battery status. A preference editor allows you to view and delete preferences for any application on your handheld. All of this in an easy to use and customizable interface. If you ever have any problems using our software or have a suggestion, don't hesitate to contact us.

    Your Files

    For any file in your handheld's internal memory or on an external card, you can view and edit general information such as the file's name, attributes (full), and dates. Any file can be copied, moved, sent (via Bluetooth or Infrared), or deleted. Files in internal memory can also be directly viewed and edited. You can also view information about any folder, such as the total size, as well as warnings about potential problems with the contents of the folder (illegal file names, etc.). The file listing allows for extensive customization: sort and filter the list in a variety of ways, and select what file information you want to see in the list. With 320x480 resolution support, the file list uses the maximum screen space available. You can also export the file list to the Memo Pad application.

    Your Handheld

    FileZ presents a wealth of information about your handheld's internals. Three tabs of information give you details about your handheld's memory, battery, and syncing. Memory info includes free/available/total amounts, filesystem info, and more. Battery info includes current/warning/critical values, battery type, and more. Sync info includes some details about your handheld's identity and sync history.

    Your Preferences

    An included preference manager within FileZ allows you to view, export, and delete the preferences for any application on your handheld (both saved and unsaved).

    Notice: Although some comments below state that FileZ is no longer being updated, this is not the case. New versions are planned and will continue to be released. Also, although PalmGear's website says that you are downloading a demo version, this is not correct and is a bug in PalmGear's website. All nosleep software applications are full versions and completely free.


    Updated Description:

    6.8.1 adds support for the 5-way navigation button and hidden volumes (such as NVFS volumes) and fixes a few bugs, and 6.8.2 makes VFS-to-VFS file copies/moves faster. 6.8.3 fixes some problems with the 5-way, and adds some better Handera support.

    See the user manual for details and the full update history.

    I have found that changing the name of a file from a lower case letter to a capital letter is a 2 step process. To change a name of a file in the details box from, say, flower to Flower, first change the name to flowers and save it (or change the name however you want). Then you can change the name to Flower (and then save it again). Perhaps a new version will fix this. Filez is one of three great freeware file managers I use on my Tapwave Zodiac, not including the Palm freeware filemanager for my Vista PC.

    Great file manager! While it may not look as nice as some, it surely has more functions. Not many app allow you to delete specific preferences, view and exit prc's and pdb's! A must-have!
