Many thanks, but I have now downloaded the audio manual from the Plextalk
site.

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
