Hi Steve,

Actually, in there rush to sort out a problem I had in getting my DN5 from RNIB 
they sent me 2 sets of manuals, 1 with 5 disks and another with 6.  Neither 
work with the DAISY software.

  Hi Jackie,

   

  My suspicion is that the DM5 manual is audio, not Daisy, since it is on six 
disks according to Jim.

   

  By the way, we sell the DM7 now and it is a great little Daisy player.  I 
would say it is the best most accessible recorder/player that Olympus have made 
to date, in terms purely of accessibility.  There are better recorders, but 
this is a great all-rounder.

   

  I should be podcasting about it in a couple of weeks.  Watch this space.

   

  All the best


  Steve

  Hi Lists,

   

  Apologies for cross posting but this is getting on my ***

   

  I've purchased an Olympus DN5 recorder andhave the manual on 6 DAISY disks.

   

  However, when I go into FS Reader 3.0 on my desktop, insert the disk into the 
DVD rw drive nothing happens, apart from the drive light coming on very briefly 
and then goes out after a few seconds.  I point FS Reader towards that drive 
but still nothing.

   

  I can play the disks on my CD player but I don't have the facility to move 
around the disk in small incriments or create bookmardks.  any helpful hints 
much appreciated.

   

  Alternatively, has anyone out there by any chance got a word/text file of the 
DN5 manual they could send me please?

   

  Jim Williams
