Hi Stewart Yes it was a USB memory stick. Had worked fine before. Then I had left it there, iactive for abut 5 minutes. When I went back the whole thing was locked and I kept getting this message, even if I turned off and took out the memory stick so if I was to progress at all last night I needed to do a reset. I realized that meant loosing all my settings but that did not matter at this early stage while I am still learning. The main thing to me is having a document with a braille display, whether I have the date or time does not really matter. Just thought someone out there might be familiar with it. Then I managed to look up the Find facility too and tried that out. It worked fine.

Was the USB device that stopped working a storage card or memory stick? Doing the reset was the best thing, from time to time, the machine will stop working with external devices. Stuart.

I had a usb mass storage device plugged in and for some reason it started saying card not recognized. This has not happened before. I must have hit something. The whole thing is frozen nw and even if I turn off and on again it keeps saying card not recognized. Anyone help.
