Try unpacking the book to your hard disk. Then move it to your card. Have
you moved other books to the card successfully?

Dear John, E, Kelly and Jill,
John, the reset button beeped and dinged when I pressed it, as it's supposed to do, but the book remains invisible.
E, I do have a card reader and when I put the card back in to it, and pressed T a few times, I landed on the title of the book, so I guess it's there.
Jill, I had unpacked the book, so I deleted the unpacked file from the card, went back to Bookshare and downloaded another unpacked copy and copied it to the card. Yet, when I inserted the card, I couldn't find the book.
Kelly, it's kind of you to offer help. I hope we can connect soon.
You may be asking how many people does it take to help Lissi change a light bulb. I'll have you know I changed 2 yesterday, one in the guest room closet and another in a night light.
I'll need to commune with the Braille Note because I realize I must be missing one or more crucial commands.
Thanks to all of you for helping me brainstorm.
Always With Love,
Lissi

Try putting the card back in the computer if you have a card reader and let's find out if the computer recognizes it. If you do not have a card reader, they cost from ten to fifteen dollars, fit into a USB port and are invaluable.

Hi Lissi,
I find that sometimes my BN doesn't see new files on the flash card until I either remove and re-insert the card, or perform a reset.
I haven't found a pattern for this, but sometimes it is the only I can get newly copied files to become visible.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Braille Note transfer help
Dear Anyone?
I'm trying to transfer a BRF file from my computer to a compaq flash card to my braille note. I downloaded the book and unpacked it in my Recreational Reading Braille folder and then copied and pasted it to the compaq flash card. When I put the card in the Braille Note and entered on open a file and then on compaq flash card, and looked in the only folder I have there called none, many books were listed, but not the new one. Can anyone suggest what I should be doing to get the book?
Today I made plans with a friend to see the movie, Night Listener, based on a book of the same title. Naturally I want to read the book before I see the movie, though I only have 2 days. Bookshare has it!!! Another big headache is preventing me from validating tonight, Jaws is shattering my nerves. my options are reading braille or trying to sleep.
You know I'll appreciate your help, but in the meantime, there are plenty of books on the Braille Note to keep the dots and stories flowing.
Always With Love,
Lissi
