Tom,
When you download a talking book file, it will be named something like this:
BookTitle.zip
Your digital talking book machine cannot process that file!
Files with the .zip extension are made up of one or more files which have
been compressed into a single file to save memory space on your computer's
hard drive and to expedite the file transfer process over the internet.
The .zip file must be decompressed into its several files within a folder
which is named similarly to the name of the .zip file from which it is
decompressed.
After the decompression has been accomplished, you can copy that new folder
to your clipboard and then paste it from the clipboard onto your digital
cartridge for playing by your digital talking book machine.
It is your responsibility to know what program to use to decompress .zip
files.
It is also your responsibility to know where the new folder and its files
can be found after the decompression process has been completed.
If your file decompression program enables you to designate the destination
of the decompressed files, you might designate the digital cartridge and
thus avoid the need to copy and paste the decompressed folder and files from
your hard drive to the digital cartridge.

Bob

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Save as...NLS digital books
Hi,
I’m trying to learn what and how to do what is needed to put a
saved/downloaded NLS digital audio book, on a digital cartrige. Friends are
telling me to open the folder with my downloaded books (in my documents),
and then go to File, and select Save as, (I know about F12, but nothing
happens when I hit it), and there’s no Save as when I open File (alt + F),
so I can’t select where to move the file. Any one know what I need to do,
since there has to be a way. I’m speculating it’s due to it being a digital
book, but since I’m lost, any one got an answer? I use Windows 7. Tom .
