Donna, I had the same problem.  It didn't give me an error message, it
just wouldn't connect.  After I rebooted, it suddenly worked.  Either
that, or I said the right magic word.  Too bad I can't remember what the
word was.  I hope you are feeling better.

No, thanks, the Bookport connects ok now.  I honestly don't know why
though, 
because I can't think of anything I altered recently which should have
made 
that difference.  Oh well, I guess it's just a continuation of the
love/hate 
relationship I often have with my computer!!

Thanks for asking anyway.

Best wishes

Donna.
