Wendy, my Currier sometimes does strange things. Before you resort to reformatting, you might try:RESET . Reset (2 plus the diamond key; the diamond key is the first key in the bottom row)
or removing and re-seating a battery.----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Sharpe" <w.sharpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Graham Glad to know you got a new one. I use mine for Audible books, MP3 music and other audio. That's why I prefer 4GB cards, but maybe I should try smaller ones.

In fact, I recently bought a new bookcourier from a supplier here in the UK who still had a few in stock. I still have not found anything that is quite as good for day to day text reading. I also got my old one refaced, so now have two working devices. I ave to sday that I tend towards using smaller flash cards as if and when they fail I stand to lose less money and data. As I mostly use the bookcourier for plain text, I am unlikely to want access to 4Gb!!

Does this problem occur on otherportable players? I use 4GB Flash cards. Would it be better to use smallercapacity cards with less on them?

You and I may be the only ones left on the planet still using a Book courier. I use mine mainly for Daisyfiles and I rarely have problems.Usually the best way to resolve the kinds of problems you are describing isto reformat the card and reload everything. I know that's a pain if you have a lot of stuff on the card, but the files do get corrupted and reformatting is sometimes the only cure.

I always make a number offolders on each card, and limit the number of files in a folder to no morethan ten. Sometimes I get an error message while going through the librarysaying that a file cannot be played.Tonight I downloaded a new MP3 file into a completely empty folder. When Itried to play it, the Courier started it, and then went back to a file in another folder. It doesn't even give me an error message. Wendy
