OK. I think this is where Nancy has gotten confused and I guess so was I.
The manual says: You will be prompted for your Bookshare password. Type it
in and press enter or if no password is required simply press enter. I have
now figured out that if it is a public domain that you could get around it
by entering, but when I read it I took it just like Nancy did. However,
because I use passwords for everything, I didn't try just entering so that
is why I didn't have a problem. Oh goodness, just put it down to a young
"senior brain." (smiles)

Hi nancy, when you download a book from Bookshare, it is a packed file.
You must enter your password to unpack the book. This is a requirement,
and has always been the case since KeySoft 5 when we introduced Bookshare
support.

[Braillenote] Bookshare and Ks 7
Well, well. I've been downloading severl books at a time, but
today was the first time I've tried to unpack them with 7.0.
When I go to unpack it, it says "invalid password". I decided to
put my password in and enter, and it unpacked. I never had to
put the password in with Ks anything until now. I don't see how
this could be a Bookshare problem, but I'm just a lay person.
I do feel, however, that there should be beta testers on this
list. If there are and I'm mistaken, I'm sorry. There should at
least be beta testers in Albany as well as New Zealand. People
in Albany California can test Bookshare, etc and try to recommend
fixes. It's easy enough to enter one's password, but I consider
this a small step backwards. I forgot how people said they
resolved this issue, but I just merely put the password in. I
don't want Humanware to ignore this because it seems like a small
inccvenience. When initially downloading the book to be
unpacked, we've always had to put the password in. I don't mind
that. I do mind having to put it in while unpacking, and I'm not
going to use my computer to download Bookshare and web braille
like I used to before I got the Braille Note. I'm sorry if I
sound mildly annoyed. I think other people had this problem with
the Bt and 7.0, right? Thanks for reading.
Nancy
