@ Munky261-
1) you need to find the folder that has the sound file that you want to replace in it. To do this use the little green arrows on the top tool bar to move around the file system. You can also double tap on a folder to show contents. Double tapping on a file will open that file.
2) Make sure you have the 2 panes opened. If you only see one pane (ie: one file listing) then tap on the icon on the left of the top toolbar (looks kinda like a book with red,green & blue lines).
3)Navigate to the folder where the new sound file is stored using the methods in #1
4)Drag and drop from one pane to the other.
In general to delete a file: highlight the file and click on the trash can
There's also a help file - to access it tap on the ->| icon in the lower right corner.

Sounds like it's a permissions issue. You might be able to get around it by changing the permissions to the directory you are trying to copy the file to by highlighting the directory and then using the menu button next to the d-pad and selecting Actions -> Change permissions. Make sure Write is checked for owner. I would also change the permissions back after the file is copied - but that's just me (I'm cautious).
If this doesn't work then you could try to become root: sudo gainroot from xterm. Then: cd /path/to/dir of file to be copied
then cp filename /path/to/destination
Root ignores permissions so that should work.

THANK YOU *bows* lol you have made a very anal retentive tablet user a very happy man. lol if youre ever around indianapolis , i owe you a beer. ended up having to use the xterm method , when i brought up the permissions screen in the filemanager it was all kind of distorted , you couldnt click or select anything. now that i have a bit more insight as to how to copy files to where i want and such theres a few other things i want to try to change ... startup sound , and the stupid nokia hands logo *blehhh* if you have any idea in what directories these might be located ill owe you another beer lol
http://wardenclyffetower.com/MaemoFi...nook-1.2.0.deb and nothing happened at all? Maybe trying rebooting then?
As for why your bookmarks.html file keeps crashing when you try to import - I guess I don't know. It worked great for me when I followed the steps I mentioned before. Did you do something different?
