Ok, so when I've finished copying the files back to bp when its formatted, are you saying bp will recognize the files again?

All you have to do is plug in your bp, then go to "my computer" and select its drive letter like any other. Navigate to the folder you want to copy and copy it to a known location on your laptop hd, then reformat the card and copy it back. Do the same to any other folders you want saved. You can do other things on the laptop while it is copying. 

Have a great day,
Alex

Will that work? I mean, have you tried it- does the bookport read

the files

ok and everything?



I'd hate to have to do this all manually, because, well, that

would take

days with the number of books I have on this unit.



thanks

You can always connect your bp to your laptop and copy

everything,

including hidden files, onto your laptop's hard drive.  You can

then

reformat your card in the bp, reconnect the bp to your laptop,

and copy

the card backup back onto the card that way.  hth.



Have a great day,
Alex

Hi, all



Well, 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.  Wood!
