Dave: If you can delete the files from your card with Windows Explorer, you = should be good to go. I am assuming that you can still connect to the PC.

I deleted some parts that I just finished reading, =3D they were Audible parts. Everything was fine as frog hair until I =3D disconnected my BP. That is the point it started to babble and nothing I do will =3D stop it. I don't have a card reader on my computer. Any suggestions as to =3D how I get this thing to stop babbling. Oh yeah, I have tried to remove the =3D 1GB card and put in the 64MB card, and this did not help either. Is the =3D only way to fix the BP at this point to format the card via card reader? =3D20 Thanks for any help anyone can tell. =3D20 Dave Cunningham (412) 257-8153 Home (412) 215-4597 Cell Email address used for MSN. =3D20 All incoming and outgoing email scanned by Norton Anti-virus 2003=3D20 -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx =3D [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]=20 On Behalf Of Debbie Crafts Sent: Saturday, June 12, 2004 6:37 PM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx=20 Subject: [bookport] babble report Hello, Well now I know what the people who have had problems with babbling are talking about! Here is exactly what happened in my case. I connected =3D the bookport to the PC. No response. This has happened before so I'm not unduly concerned. Usually, disconnecting and then reconnecting solves =3D the problem. Please note that I do not choose "unplug" from the system tray = =3D as the device has not been recognized--I simply unplug and reconnect. This time, however, when I unplugged the Bookport, it started to babble in =3D the manner already described on this list. Neither a 2+B combo or a battery reset resolve the problem. I took the card out of the device, put it in = =3D my card reader and deleted the "lastfile._aa" file and the memo folder for = =3D good measure. This seems to have resolved the problem. When I put the card = =3D back in the Bookport it behaved as expected and I am now in the middle of transferring my files. Hope this information is helpful. Thanks. P.S. Just disconnected and everything is hunky dory! Debbie Crafts Framingham, MA debbiecrafts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx=20
