Hi:

Once the file has been copied to the computer, rename the file with the _dd 
extension by deleting the dd extension, so it is an MP3 file again.  Then it 
will work.

Hello Howard,

Thanks very much for the great suggestion, but when I try what you suggest 
copying and pasting under my computer, the mp3 files I want to copy from my 
Bookport to my computer, the file format of the copied mp3 file after I paste 
it onto my computer is not useable, the new copied mp3 file on my computer will 
not play.  Instead when I right click on this copied mp3 file and try to play 
it using windows media player, I get the message this file is in a format that 
is not recognized, (grim).  Look forward to any more helpful suggestions you 
might have on how I can transfer mp3 files from my bookport to my computer 
successfully.  Just to let you know, the version of the firmware program on my 
bookport is bookport 2.2 which is the same software version I got with my 
bookport way back in October 2005.  Could this be maybe partly causing my 
problem of why I cannot successfully copy and paste mp3 files from my bookport 
to my computer's hard drive using my computer, maybe the newest bookport 
firmware software will fix my problem?



All the best,
frustrated bookport 2.2 user,

Hank

Skip the transfer program.  Plyug in the bookport and treat it like a drive 
from either windows exploorer or my computer.  Now copy and paste like from any 
other drive and folder.
