Hmmm, I don’t know that Real Player is a good choice nowadays. You might be
better off with Windows Media Player. I definitely would think about having
your computer worked on given that you have Windows 7 and are having problems
installing Open Drive. Probably you haven’t tried to install any other program
lately, and I would wonder if a setting hasn’t been accidently disrupted
somehow.

Oh Travis, I’m so sorry. What version of Windows are you running? Also, are you
near to a computer repair shop? If you want a specific player like Winamp to be
your default player, I can give you instructions on how to make that happen.
Please let me know if you’re interested in that. As for running certain
internet radio stations on your computer, I’d suggest that if they have
different options for running the internet stream with different players, you
always choose your default player once you make it your default. Hope this
helps at least a little. When people put music on Dropbox, they are sharing a
specific link for the music which goes onto the internet so you can grab the
music. Believe me, there’s way too much on Open Drive to allow anyone to use
Dropbox unless you have a shared folder with a specific person for transfer of
music. Hope this makes sense.

Hi, Keneth,
Open drive is kind of like drop box but it's much easier to use. It has folders
similar to what would be on your computer but they go on the cloud. I forgot the
link you go to to install open drive but it's really easy to use compared to
sendspace or drop box. What you do is instead of cutting a file, you copy it to
the clipboard, find the music folder, hit enter on it and paste your file into
the folder. You don't have to create an account because Nancy Shackelford
already did that for us.
Hope this helps.

Hello Rose Marie
What is open drive? Is it a site somewhere or something else, I have about 6000
gigs of music, old TV and movies to share. My old 78's are on my computer also
and I can share them too. Where do I go and how is it done.

97 and she lived to be 14 years old.

Hi, Keneth,
I'm Rosemarie and I live in Southern California. Welcome to this great list. I
hope you'll enjoy it as much as the rest of us do.
What this list is about is sharing music on a service called open drive. There's
a variety of things up there already. There are also audio books, movies and old
TV shows. Not only do we share music but we also give each other support when
it's wanted or needed. Some people here post blindness-related articles which
are quite interesting.
Wow, that's something about all the 78's you have. What state do you live in?

Hello list members:
I’m Kenneth Atkins and I’m new here, what is this list all about can someone
please enlighten me.
I’m 70 years old and live on a small farm out in the country where I can keep a
milk cow and a llama. I love the old time country music and have 791 78 RPM
records at the last count. I keep a USONA wind up player for playing them.
I enjoy homestead crafts like making my own beer and hard cheese along with
making my own record sleeves and weaving rugs on my loom.
I also do home canning when I can find the extra food on sale.
Anybody like farming stuff.
Kenneth Atkins
