Hi Stan,
William is correct. When you transfer a book using
the transfer tool, 3 files are created. For example,
if your book is called farside, then it will create:
farside._dd
farside._ix
farside._aa
Windows can mount the bookport like a removable drive.
If you opened the bookport as a drive, renamed
farside._dd to unforgiven._dd, then disconnect the
usb, unforgiven._dd will not play because it is
looking for unforgiven._ix and unforgiven._aa.
Similarly, if you create a folder called newbook and
move farside._dd to the newbook folder only, then
farside._dd will not play.
So just remember to do renames BEFORE you use the
transfer tool on your book. If you are viewing the
contents of your bookport as a removable drive in
windows explorer, then you must rename all three
files.
Hope this helps,
-jon
