Hi, First thing is that the bookport will not take format 3 audible books only 4. Next you don't use the audible manager to activate the the bookport, you go into bookport transfer to do it. Go to options and press space then under advanced look for the activate button and give it your name and password and you will be good to go. Then you use the bp transfer program to transfer your books to it.

Audible won't recognize it even being there when I choose the activate button but I have the Transfer Software installed and the BP connected. I tried just copying an Audible file which was a format 3 file but that didn't work either. Any ideas. Thanks for the help.
