Hello Aman,
Yes, I did hear the sounds and then the success tones. It transferred =
well.
I tried all the keys suggested. I did it while the file played and when =
it
wasn't playing. Nothing happened when it was playing, it didn't go back =
or
forward when the suggested keys were used. The same when the file was =
not
playing. I don't understand why it isn't working.=20

Hi, Dave.
When you sent the file to the unit, did you hear short beeps
followed by a success sound? If not, you're still, for some reason, =
sending
the file through the standard windows interface, rather than the BP =
transfer
tool. When you right clicked on the file and selected send to, did you =
then
select "bookport" or anything with a drive letter after it? K:, for =
example?
You can send, at least on my system, to the unit as a drive or just to
"bookport". The latter is the way that uses the transfer tool.
The keys I mentioned are the forward and reverse keys on the unit,
and they work on digital media as they do on text or, at least, they do =
on
my unit here.

I did what you suggested. I deleted the file from my player and =3D
transferred it by selecting the file and pressing the context key, =
scrolling
down to send to, then book port. It isn't where I want it but still it
doesn't =3D go forward via those keys mentioned. =3D20
Regardless I still think there should be a fast forward and reverse key =
=3D
for digital media, such as MP3 and WAV.

Hi.
You might want, in the my computer or explorer views of Windows
Explorer, to right-click on the file in its folder on your hard drive.
Select send to, then book port. This should transfer it correctly.
Copying and pasting doesn't, in my experience, work.

I tried your suggestion however it didn't work. It just played on as =
=3D =3D3D
though nothing was pressed. =3D3D20
The method which I transferred the file was by copying it from a folder =
=3D
=3D3D then opening My Computer scrolling down to the removable drive K: =
=3D
opening it =3D3D and pasting it in my book folder. Is this the wrong =
method
to do =3D this? =3D3D20

Hi.
Try 1, 4, 7, and 7 held down for one beep to go back 2 seconds in an
MP3, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, or 60 seconds. 3, 6, 9, and 9 held down =
=3D3D
should go forward by the same time periods. The only time I've seen =3D =
these
=3D3D commands fail to work is when you transfer the mp3 file using a =
card =3D
reader.

Hello,
I downloaded the documentation in MP3 format from A P H which is 38MB =
=3D =3D3D
and transferred it to the bookport. after starting to read it I tried =
to =3D
=3D3D use 1 key to go back a sentence and 3 to go forward a sentence and =
other
=3D keys =3D3D to do other things. nothing worked. I can see a problem =
with
reading =3D =3D3D audible file on the player already. my suggestion is =
to
incorporate a =3D fast =3D3D forward and reverse into the player. I =
sometimes
have a tendency to =3D miss =3D3D something and wish to go back a minute =
or 2
but at this point I =3D don't think I =3D3D would be able to. besides, =
some
like to fast forward =3D through a music file to a =3D3D part or =
possibly go
back to relisten to a part. I =3D had a RIO 500 and a RIO =3D3D 900 and =
I could
do it with both of them. it would =3D start sort of slow then =3D3D =
speed up.
the nice thing was I could hear it =3D going back or forward at a high =
=3D3D
rate of speed. I could then stop and it would =3D just start playing at =
that
=3D3D point. =3D3D20 =3D3D20 Dave =3D3D20 =3D3D20 =3D3D20 =3D =3D3D20 =
