I have a number of formatted cards and all give me the exact same error.
Yes, it will be a sad day when I have to discard this old friend. I'm going
to attempt a couple of things tomorrow and see if they nudge the unit.

Have you tried formatting the card? It would be such a sad thing to retire a BookPort.

Thank you Pamela for the suggestion. After waiting the 24-hours, unfortunately, it reacts the same. Looks like it's time to retire this player, unless you have any other suggestions. Thank you very much for your assistance over the years.

Hi Rick:
You can try leaving both the battery and flash card out for a full 24 hours.
After 24 hours, put the batteries in without a card and see if it says "no flash card." If that works, then try the card.

Pamela,
Thank you for getting back with me so quickly. After trying your suggestion a few times, it is still doing the same thing.
I really am not interested in listening to my Audible library on my phone, and am wondering what player you would suggest to replace my poor old Bookport. Unfortunately, I am not really interested in memorizing a ton of shortcut commands to do numerous things I am not interested in doing. As long as I know to traverse my titles, set bookmarks, and the like, I'm good.

Hello Rick:
Try removing the batteries for a few minutes. If the problem persists, Try holding down 2 plus b while inserting the last battery.
If that doesn't work, then it's probably time to kiss the Book Port goodbye.

When I push the #2 button on my player, all it says is 189JD. I get the same reaction when pushing some other buttons, like the help button. Have never seen this before. I have tried changing memory cards with no change. I can't reset the unit or reformat it. Any thoughts will be very appreciated.
Rick
