Each folder or subfolder on your BP should contain no more than 30 files. If you put more files in a folder than that, you will get strange error messages. This is what I have found works best. The best way to transfer the books to your computer and then back to the BP would be to do it with a card reader.

Ow, that is going to take a long, long time...I can't just move the books folder to my hard drive, format the card, then transfer the books folder back onto the root of book port?thanks contact details: email: tcwood12@xxxxxxx msn: the_conman283@xxxxxxxxxxx skype: the_conman283 system details: Hp pavillion dv5220CA notebook pc AMD Tourin 64 2.0 GHZ, 1024 mb DDR ram, Fujitsu 100 gb 4500 RPM HDD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yerba Bruja" <yerbabruja@xxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 8:37 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: having a bit of a problemWhat I would suggest is that if your computer is back in order, that you transfer the books back to the computer, and either reformat your card and retransfer, or try transferring them to a new card.Unfortunately, you'll have to transfer the books back to the computer manually. That is, you'll have to look for the bookport root directory through my computer or Windows Explorer, which will identify it as usb mass storage device drive e or f etc. depending on how many more drives you have on your machine.Then you'll have to go into the folders, if you set any up, and look for the files that you transferred. The files that you're looking for are those that only have the txt extensions, if that's how you formatted all the books you transferred. Ignore the files that have ix extensions or other extensions that you do not recognize. From here you can either remove each file with a control X and transfer them to the desired folder on your computer, using a control V, or you can open the file, and then use the save as command to save it to the folder you want.Marta----- Original Message ----- From: "constantine (on laptop)" <tcwood12@xxxxxxx>To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 8:19 PM Subject: [bookport] having a bit of a problem Hi, allWell, heres my problem. I was reading a book a while back and the volume kind of went softer, this is a text file, btw. So I hit stop, (number 2), and nothing happens. I hit 2+b, and so I got fs card fail. I went to play the file again, or make doubletalk speak again I mean, but it said there were no files. What I did then was removed the batteries, put them back in. it worked just beautifully, I reset my settings, went back to my reading, (of course it left off at the place at which I'd started reading to begin with), so I moved to where it gave me issues, started reading again. so we get to about 10 more minutes into it, and I hear buffer overflow, moving on. Buffer overflow, moving on. What exactly does this mean? What should I do? I don't want to have to format the flash card because i have books on it that I don't have on my laptop anymore, mainly due to a reformat of the hard drive. Can I somehow back these up, anyway? This has been doing it off and on. I'm not sure what I did, but it worked fine for a while, but its recently started again, and its somewhat frustrating. I've been using my ipod to read audiobooks, but this just goes to show how great the bookport is, I can't live without it. If I can back up files, which extention should I look for? (each file has these underline, for example, underline db or some such. Can I just delete the underline from a certain file so I can retransfer it? Or is there another way to fix this issue? I'm sort of hard put to transfer those html books back to the unit, I find it tedius to go into internet explorer for each file, hit applications, and send to book port. I know it can be done from book port transfer, but for some reason some html files look, well, very wierd on the unit, I get the <p> and </P> taggs, which, well, I can't read with those, heh, I can't concentrate on the book. Sending from internet explorer seemed to fix this issue. I'm not saying its annoying, it just involves a bit more concentration and time, which I guess I have, that is, if I can back up this here flash card at all (that's about hmmm, I can't even count, about 400 mb of text files), no idea how many files, perhaps 1000? 2000? quite a few, anyway...why do I even have so many when you can only read one book at a time? no idea! guess they just built up over the years...<grin>.thanks, Have a good day from Tyler C.
