Hi,
Could someone tell me how long the actual firmware upgrade takes?
I don't mean all of the steps, but the actual upgrade itself!
Must I hit the OK button?
Because it says that it's upgrading, but there's an OK button on the message
box.
Must I hit it to start?
Thanks!

Make sure you are using the 7xx firmware for the 799. I tried the 8xx and it
did exactly what you're describing.
Also, I think you should probably have all other programs which might try to
access the player turned off.
Good luck Rusty

Hi Rusty, Yes, I did here that USB ding when I plugged in the Iriver, but I never heard it again to indicate it shutting down. I've tried it a few times, but I guess I'll try it again! Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: <rusty.perez@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <blindcasting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, October 08, 2005 3:25 PM Subject: RE: Iriver 799 documentation.
Frank, first of all, did your computer recognize the iriver to start with?
That is, did you hear the sound that tells you that a device was
connected?
If you didn't hear this, then you need to press the play button while
the player is connected, making sure that the lock switch is to the left.
If you did hear the sound saying it was connected, ideally, you will
hear the sound of disconnection when the firmware has been updated.
That's the way it worked with me at least.
The 7xx firmware is the correct one.
Good luck!

Does the firmware upgrade take a long time? What happened was that I installed the manager. Then I downloaded the firmware, which was IFP-7XX.HEX. Is it the correct one for the IFP799? Then I opened the file from with in the manager. It told me that it was updating the firmware or something like that, and to please wait, but it gave me an OK button. So I waited for a while and nothing happened. Then I hit the OK button and waited for a while, but the unit never powered down. What did I do wrong? Could someone help please? It's terrible to have a new tool or toy, and not to be able to use it! Thanks in advance! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donald L.

Hello,
I need documentation for the 799 which I received yesterday but am not permitted to use until my birthday on the 15th. Documentation in this case refers to any informative or instructive materials, not strictly the company manual.
I want to learn to use this thing but had hard drive problems and no longer have Shane's great instructions as well as other instructional materials. If persons on this list would forward relevant emails about using this thing to:
donald_roberts_99@xxxxxxxxx
I would be most grateful. Also, what is the url for Shane's informative podcast about the 799? Thanks much.
