CD Watchtower library for Android 3.2

Android does not "Associate" pdb files with isilo. You need to open isilo first and then browse to the folder that contains the files from within isilo, then open the files you want once there.

Thanks Chuck for this guidance. I will try it and let you know how I fare.

Yes, so the method I gave prevents you from having to "browse" to the box folder each time or from even having to move the files once you download them.

Now that you have English as a fav - you should be able to select it and see the new folder "Watchtower Library" - once you download the files Musky pointed out.

Many don't know how to move files around so I just show them how to set it up once the first time with a favorite to the right Box folder and then no moving is necessary.

I'll have to give this method a try. The way I showed, once you have browsed to the folder with the isilo files, you never have to look for it again. Every time isilo is opened after the first time, it will default to the folder with the isilo files unless you browse to a different folder.

I create a folder on my SD card and call it "Theocratic files" or "isilo files". I use "Foldersync" to sync this folder with the isilo "Weekly study material" folder so it updates automatically.

I have not heard of "folder sync" - what is that?

It's a great app. The free (lite) version only allows you to sync one folder, but that's enough to keep the WSM folder synced to your Android. Check it out, it's on the app market and called "Foldersync lite". It's very easy to set up with your Box.net login. Set the isilo WSM folder as the "external" folder and whatever folder you have set up for isilo to access on your phone, set as the "Internal" folder. then choose the sync options. I use "once a day" which is fine. I also tell it to use either WiFi or 3G when syncing.

Thanks friend for all the suggestions. At last I managed to access WTlib on my andoid tablet! Am so excited! Now I will try out this sync method because I am still having difficulty opening other docs in my box folder that have the file extension 'pdb'. Thanks again for all the help. Much appreciated.

I don't think FolderSync will help you "open other docs in my box folder that have the file extension 'pdb'." Isilo should open any pdb files. And as long as they are all in the same folder, the scripture links will work. You just need to be sure you open isilo first and then open the other pdb files from within isilo. Tapping on the files by themselves, from outside of isilo will not work.
