What you are seeing now is normal behaviour.

Hi David,

 

Thanks for the good advice.  I reformatted the flashed card again as you
suggested, and the BookPort Transfer software now recognizes the BookPort.

 

But I also noticed that, when the BookPort Transfer comes up, my J drive,
which is the drive name my computer assigned to the BookPort earlier, comes
up, too.  I don't know if it was doing that before all this trouble
happened.  If you think this is a normal behavior, I'll let it go at that.
If you know of anything else, please let me know.  Thank you again for your
sound and prompt advice.

 

ST

Remove the CF card and reset your unit using the B and 2 keys
simultaneously.  After the unit has responded and gone to sleep, reinstall
the CF card.  Re-format the card again, even though you did it previously.
If none of this works, remove the batteries for a few minutes.  If none of
these efforts bring about positive results, try a different CF card.  At
this point you might well conclude that your unit has a problem.

 

One more thing, though.  Before giving up entirely, remove the software from
your computer, navigate to your programs, and manually remove the APH
folder, because removing the software won't do this, and some residual
corrupted material may remain until the folder is gone.  Empty your recycle
bin.  Re-boot your computer.  Then reinstall the software.  All these steps
may not be essential, but if you perform them all, you'll know for sure that
you've covered all the bases.

Subject: [bookport] BookPort Transfer not recognizing BookPort connected on
my XP

 

Hello everyone,

 

For some reason, the BookPort Transfer software no longer recognizes the
BookPort connected to my XP.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the
software, and I have also reformatted the flash card.  But my computer sees
the BookPort only as one of the storage devices.  The BookPort Transfer
software actually says, "BookPort not connected," when it is indeed
connected.  What have I done wrong?

 

I am unable to contact APH's technical support during the day.  Could anyone
help me solve this problem?  Your help will be greatly appreciated.

 

ST
