Christine,

If you can do these things on drives already on your computer, do it just the same way on the Zen Stone, from Windows Explorer.

You can even format the drive - though I'm not suggesting you want to do that right now! <Smiles>

Yes it Did actually, Thanks, do you know how to create a new file or folder on the zen stone, also how do you delete a book when you finish reading it? Do you know? Do you fancy joining my DB friends group again, we're missing

hi Christine.
plug it in then go to my computer.
them arrow down to zen stone and press enter it.
it should have two folder in there, have a look at the music files there.
there is no cd with the zen stone.
plug it in for about two hours then have a listen to the music on there.
hope that helps.
Barrie.
