Okay, that answers that, thank you. I wondered why my laptop wouldn't recognize it even though I'd installed all of the software that came with the device. Then I saw the disk drive option in utilities, and figured I might have to select that option before connecting it to the laptop.
It might be easier for me to locate the library folder and copy the books to it in this manner. Thanks.
