Sharon,I didn't think resetting the unit would erase files. Then again, I haven't done much with quick recordings.

Well, they are, but sometimes it takes me a couple days to write down what Ineed from quick recordings, and in that length of time, they get erased because of resets.

Besides, as far as I'm concerned, quick recordings are transitory.

Have you moved a recording from the flash drive to the hard drive? Finding that buried folder takes more steps than it is worth.From the main menu, I just hit 5, 3 and enter, which starts the recording inonly a few moments later than using the button, but like other machines with a record button on them, I know people who have accidently started it recording and not realized it. That can eat up flash drive space rather quickly. There I go again, pounding on that dead horse. Oh well.

Otherwise, I see quick recordings as just that, and therefore not worth occupying hard drive space.

The documentation for a few versions back states that The quick record button goes to the hard drive, which would be ideal. I gather that obviously never made it into a release. I think just about everyone would prefer that it directed recordings to the hard drive, recordings folder. Richard, who seems to like beating on dead horses.

Aren't they always stored on the flash disk?

For one thing, there's more room on the HD and the system software is primarily stored on the flash drive, so there's a greater chance of things being erased during an update. When in the recorder, when the unit says "recordings in flash" hit a left-arrow and that should bring you to the hard drive. Unit should say "records on the hard drive." Now, record something and this will set your unit to always use the hard drive unless you change it again. Hope this helps, and no, I'm not sure if you can get the recordings made to the flash back.martinelson1@xxxxxxxxxxx 04/16/08 09:56AM >>>Hi, everyone: after doing the upgrade,and after backing up and restoring my data, I discovered that all of my recordings on the flash card had disappeared. They don't appear in the recordings folder. I didn't do any reflash. My contacts and other items are still there. Any ideas what might have happened, and if there is a way of recovering them? Thanks.
