Jean, Although SD cards come formatted, it's been my experience that they don't always work on equipment without a reformat.
If you use the Utilities choice of preparing that card for use with the BN, you shouldn't go wrong (unless the card really is incompatible, of course)! -- Carol [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jean Menzies Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2005 8:18 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] KeySoft patch for BrailleNoteandVoiceNotemPowerusers Oh, dumb me. I never thought about using Active Sinc to put the file there in the first place. So, format the card, put the file on it, and run the install process. Makes sense. By the way, does an SD card have to be formatted like that before using it as a general storage device?

You can copy files to the card directly using ActiveSync, then go for the appropriate reset and upgrade. These files will remain on the card until that "Reset and upgrade" happens. -- Carol [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jean Menzies Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 8:05 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] KeySoft patch for BrailleNoteandVoiceNotemPowerusers Well, no, because in the instructions it says you put the SD card in the mPower and then run an ap on the mPower and all data will be erased from the card. So, you coudn't then put the file on the card first.

To get the file from the PC to the SD card, is that done through Windows Explorer with the SD card in a card reader?
