If you followed the steps I gave you, the folder is now on your Bookport. You open it like you would any other folder. Use Star and pound to go back or forward through your files and folders.At 09:27 PM 3/26/2008 -0500, you wrote:Great, thanks. ok, another question.

Here is how you do it. Open Windows Explorer. Go to the folder you want to transfer. Press the applications key, the key to the left of the control key on the right side of your keyboard. Arrow up or down to: "send to", and press enter. You should hear, "Send to Bookport." Press enter. If you don't immediately hear that, arrow up or down until you do.At 08:52 PM 3/26/2008 -0500, you wrote:Can I transfer an entire folder from my computer to the bookport without having to transfer each individual file? thanks -- Original Message ----- From: "chase crispin" <chase.crispin@xxxxxxxxx>To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 03, 1970 4:44 AM Subject: [bookport] Re: can of worms Re: Re: bookport Digest V5 #60You could also make a book Port folder on the PC and make a sub folder in that called CF card 1, CF card 2, etc. This way, you could just resend everything that was on thatflash card back to that flash card.

I would suggest that perhaps people might want to make an extra copy of the material in the bookport onto another CF card, so that if the card on the unit were erased, one would at least have the data to read once one reaches one's destination. Doesn't solve the problem of what to read while on the plane, but at least one would have the books. Marta On Wed, 26 Mar 2008 11:13:06 -0500, Sandy Licht wrote:Actually, it wasn't a can of worms.

I merely wanted to agree that the manual is a good read, but you know you are desperate for something to read if you read it several times in one week. I don't think anyone really needs to be concerned about taking the Book Port through airport security. I have done so many times without incident. This was not the usual security check. As I said, everyone on the flight who had a device with a flash card, ended up with an empty one. I don't think there was anything any of us could have done to avoid this. So, just take your Book Port through security as usual. If you getsubjected to a super security check and lose your files, read the manualagain.

With the flap closed, accidentally formatting the card is less likely, especially if it is locked.

If it bounced, then it reformatted the card. It's a stretch, but it would explain why it happened.

I've been reading the posts about the loss of book files from a CF card after going through the X-ray machine in an airport. Sounds like an event that is not terribly likely to happen again. I've been on many hundreds of flights with my BookPort and always leave it in my briefcase which goes through the X-ray machine. I've never had a problem. I wonder if the problem might have been cause by something else is that the file structure on the card, albiet without book files, appeared OK, that is, it didn't seem to need reformatting. Wouldn't the card tell you that it needed formatting rather than there were no files -- I don't know the answer to that one. And, it did sound as though the Help file was intact. My gut says that repeatedly removing a CF card is potentially harder on the BookPort, card slot, and the CF card. If left in a purse, it'll go through X-rays anyway, and in a wallet, it can take a bit more of a beating if sat upon.Sandy Licht Jeremiah 29:11 - 14.
