Hi, all! A very odd thhing happened to me yesterday, and I haven't a clue about what to do. Out of the blue, the books I have in My Books in the MPower stopped being accessible to me. Any book with a braille format just comes up blank. I can read the name of the book in the list of books, I can press enter on that and am asked if I want to review options, but after that, niether speech nor the braille display will let me read the book. Strangely, when I go to the top of the document, I can read the message, very fleetingly, that says Top of Document, but then the text disappears as if there's nothing there. When I review the options for any of my books in the graile format, it will give me the word count, so the book is still there, but I just can't read it! This problem is not happening with any of my text file books or documents, such as things I've downloaded from websites or scanned as text files and then loaded into the braile note. NOr do I have problems reading any braille documents i've written. I tried renaming my braile files, tried opening them in Keyword, but still, no braille!
Sorry for the long post, but this is really weird. I've tried just s simple reset also and may have to revert to other kinds of resets, but I'm just wondering if there's not some sort of weird translation problem that's suddenly cropped up. Any help would be deeply appreciated! wol Kathy Szinnyey [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: Carlos To: 'Braillenote List' Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2005 4:59 PM Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Smtp server Ok. I got it solved now. I needed to answer yes to the authentification question on the braille note for it to send. I got it using comcast's smtp servers. I was thinking I was going to have to use t-mobile's smtp servers. At any rate, its all working now and I have complete access to mail and the web when away from home. Too cool! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Don Bishop Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2005 4:33 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Smtp server Hi Carlos, You're exactly right. Doesn't that show up within the properties or settings for your email program on your pc though? I don't use comcast, but they need to specify their servers somewhere in your email configuration. That is, unless they handle email differently than everyone else. <smile> Also, they should have a web page and within that a support page where you might be able to locate a list of their server names. But, if you're able to receive mail, you're half way there. Don On Sat, 26 Nov 2005 16:26:58 -0500, Carlos wrote: Hi Don. Wow you are quick. Your are correct in that I am sending email from my pc at this moment. Since I'm outside of comcast's domain when I connect to the internet on my braille note with my cell phone, I need to know what their smtp server name is. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Don Bishop Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2005 4:20 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Smtp server Hi Carlos, I assume you're sending email from your pc right now. You might look in the settings of your email program as the smtp server should be specified there. Also, you may need to turn on authentication on the bn since you're actually connecting from outside the comcast domain when you connect using your cell phone.
