I have been transfering executable files to my BlackJack II via the transfer cable to my device or it's data storage card, up until now successfully. All of a sudden they appear as hidden files. Can someone please guide me back to making them visable so I can install programs again? I have no idea what I could have done to cause this problem. I can see the files through my pc when viewing hidden files.

Thanks in Advance,

Damion

I had the same problem - Don't use the "my stuff" file explorer to try to open it. there's a file explorer in the applications folder that ought to work like what disco stu was saying. try that one to open the .cabs and it ought to work.
good luck!
