My Archos 101 tablet's full sized USB port doesn't acknowledge my stick drives. It did but now doesn't. I plugged a hub in and it lights up but the tablet still does not recognize the stick drive.

Flash Player the software from Adobe (Adobe Flash Player)? or are you talking about when you stick a Flash Drive (Jump Drive) in the USB Port the system does not recognize it?

download it and install

Try this:
Power your Archos 101 off by holding the Power Button for 10 seconds (this fully shuts it down).
While holding the Volume + button power it back up (tap power button to start up, hold volume until the tablet enters recovery mode, you'll see a series of choices instead of the demo mode).
Choose the Format System option.
When this process is complete make sure not to select Demo Mode as Android boots and the Archos 101 gets up and running.

first you will need to go to Settings > applications > and then checkmark unknown sources. Then you will have to go to your file manager (like astro) and click on the .apk. The android installer will run and install the app.

Archos support is correct, if it doesn't use a simple interface like a hard drive or mouse/keyboard, then it won't work on the Archos 101.
Manufacturers aren't releasing Android drivers yet for the most part, so I wouldn't expect an ethernet to USB cable to work any time soon, sorry!

Betty,
Archos has been saying Flash would be officially available for some time now, but it's still not out. There is a beta version that I'm using, works great for me:
First step to getting Flash working is to go to your settings menu, then Applications, then check the box to allow for Unknown Sources to be installed.
To get a Beta version of Flash working use this link (from your Archos tablet):

You should be prompted to install this APK file on your Archos 101 after it's downloaded, this will give you a decent version of Flash (it's taken from a Droid X which has similar hardware to the Archos 101).
The Version number of your Archos 101 firmware is different from the Android Operating System. Version 2.1.8 is the latest Archos firmware as of Feb 28, 2011, this is Android 2.2.1.
To force an update, you actually need to connect the Archos 101 to the internet, not to a PC. Once you're connected to a Wifi network and have access to the internet, go to your Settings, then scroll to the bottom to About Device. On this screen is a Firmware Update option, this will check for and download the latest. Once it's downloaded you'll be prompted to plug your tablet into the charger and restart it to apply the firmware.

if there is an usb port on it, you can connect it through a Ethernet USB adapter that will allow you to get online.

2 ways:
1. Copy sermon files from laptop to USB drive, then mount USB drive to Archos, go to files, external drive, copy files to ARCHOS from USB drive.
2. Connect laptop to Archos with USB cable & copy or drag files from laptop to Archos

Note: You will then need a reader / Office Suite/ or other app to view the sermon files. I assume the files are .doc files. Excellent app for this is Docs to Go.
