If you do get a corrupt card, can you revive it by reformatting it, or
is it a bin job?
Thanks,
rob

Hi Sharon,
Here's the section from the documentation that addresses removing
memory
cards. In this case, it's imperative that you disconnect BC from your
PC
BEFORE you remove the memory card. Otherwise, you risk corrupting the
card.
Replacing the CompactFlash=AE CardBookCourier supports type 1
CompactFlash=AEcards with data storage up to 2 gigabytes. You can use
multiple cards to store lots of information. However, it=92s important
to
useCompactFlash=AE cards that are dedicated solely to BookCourier. Do
not
share these cards with other devices such as cameras or MP3 players.
These
devices write files and, in some cases, folders to the card that
BookCourier
cannot read, cluttering the card with files you cannot access.
Important Note: You can corrupt the data on a CompactFlash=AE card if
you do
not use the following instructions carefully. In particular, you MUST
disconnect BookCourier from your PC and you MUST wait for BookCourier
to go
to sleep before you remove the memory card from the unit. Here are the
instructions:
* If necessary, disconnect BookCourier from your PC.=20
* Wait 10 seconds for BookCourier to beep and go to sleep. If you
haven't
used your BookCourier within the past minute or so, it's already
asleep.=20
* Firmly pull the card out of BookCourier. The CompactFlash=AE card is
located on the right side of the device. One edge of the card
protrudes
slightly so that you can grab it. BookCourier announces =93Memory Card
Removed.=94=20
* Insert the new card into the open slot on the right side of
BookCourier.
The card is rectangular and has a lip on one of the long edges. Orient
the
card so that the lip is facing down and the edge opposite the lip goes
into
the slot first. Firmly press the card into the slot to ensure that it
is
seated properly. You should feel the card lock in place. BookCourier
says
=93Ready=94 when it detects the new card.=20
Remember that the new card contains different information from the old
card.
The contents of the Library will be different. If you are inserting a
brand
new card, it's a good idea to format the card using your BookCourier.
Read
the next section for instructions.

I was wondering if you can remove = a flash card while the BC is
connected
or
do you have to keep disconnecting it if you want to edit another disc?
