Marc:
You are correct. Both the authors list and the all books list were
empty. I only have about 20 books total. I have tried rerunning the
program a couple of times and the lists to not seem to be rebuilt. I
have found that this same condition happens with podcast episode lists
as well, and the list is not usually recreated until the next feed
update.
Regarding the difficulty in downloading books which caused me to do a
stylus reset, I selected a book from the list and nothing would happen.
Normally Icon says something like "logging onto bookshare downloading"
and then says, if I remember correctly, "download done" when the
download is complete. I only try to download one book at a time since I
have had problems previously when I tried to download a second book when
the first is still downloading.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
Scott

Scott:
When you open the bookshelf, I'm assuming from your message that when
you press right to enter the list of authors or all books, that the
lists are both empty?
If so, you may want to try to wait for the unit to rebuild your book
catalog. This can take a minute or two if you have a big collection.
You can confirm that it is rebuilding the catalog by pressing status
twice.
Can you give us more information about exactly what happened when your
unit stopd downloading podcasts and books?
Thanks,
Marc

Michael and group: After a stylus reset last night (because icon was
once again not downloading books or podcasts), I discovered that my all
books and authors lists have disappeared. Although I did a back-up a few
weeks ago, I could not find the back-up files under the utilities
back-up option. Does anyone have a work around? I suppose the books
should still appear as files using file explorer. I hope some of the rss
reader issues particularly will be fixed in version 1.0. I'm becoming
rather discouraged with some of these plaguing issues.
Thanks.
Scott
