I have noticed a bug when moving files to a different folder on the Bookport. For the most part, when you are moving two or more files, (not at the same time, I realize that you can't do it that way.), the Bookport will crash. The only way to get it to work again is to remove one of the batteries for a second. It can be a pain in the neck, because you have to reset everything. All in all, it is a nice feature, though.

Hi Marta and list!

If you unintentionally get files in the wrong folder, you can move them within the book port to any folder. Simply locate the file, press the cut command, then navigate to the folder you want, open it and press the paste command. Bookport will announce file moved, and it truly will be.

Cheers,
Dave

That's right.  I've sent many a files myself through the bookport that way.
Sorry for forgetting to bring that up.  I'd add one more thing though.  If
you send single files or books using the steps described by Walt, they'll
end up in the bookport's root directory.  Sometimes that can cause problems,
as i've had the occasion to find out.  So what you might want to do in order
to avoid that, is put all the files you're sending in a folder, and then
send the entire folder to the bookport using the steps described above.

I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity.
