Hello Everyone
I have a PTR2 which I bought second-hand, and I am very pleased with it. I
am wondering where I can get the CD containing the manual and other items, as
the seller did not include this, and could not locate it when I asked for it.
I have the manual in Word, but it would be so much easier to have the DAISY
version on CD. Any help would be much appreciated.
Wendy

Agreed - that was most definitely not your work!!
The best manual of a ptr device I have seen was the one for the ptr2!

Andre,
My experience has been much like Peter's.
One other thing that I've noticed is that I tend to get a more reliable
connection (i.e. one with fewer connection errors) if I make sure the Pocket is
booted up before connecting the USB cable to the computer - no idea why this
should make a difference but, if I connect the cables first and then switch on
the Pocket, Windows quite often fails to recognise the Pocket properly.
Finally, can I just point out I had nothing to do with writing the Pocket
Transfer manual, honest!! (Smile)

The roblem may be that I am using one of my usual usb to mini cables and not
the one supplied with the machine. I will try that and see if it works.
The thing used to work simply using windows explorer but for some obscure
reason now it will work for a time and then simply hangs up.

Hi Andre,
A couple of things: firstly I agree with you about the manual, but if you
look for the tutorials on the Plextalk site, such as network set-up and
using the transfer software, I think you should find them clear and helpful.
Secondly, just to say that I almost always use Windows Explorer for
transferring all sorts of material and have hardly ever had any problems. I
only use the transfer software for podcast feeds.
HTH,
Peter
