I just noticed for the first time, that the Windows Mobile Device Center on Windows Vista hides some folders from your device when connected to your machine.
If you plan, for example, to upload some new ringing tones to your mobile device, you will have to place them in the \Windows\Rings folder of your device. This is, on default, a two step procedure. First, place them in some folder on your device. Next, use the File Explorer of your device and copy the files from the temporary location into the rings folder on your device.
If you want to access the Windows folder, as well as others, directly from Windows Vista, you have to check your Windows Explorer settings "Show hidden System Files."
Darn, why do they make life so difficult. They don't hide the Windows folder of my Vista installation...
