Hi roger; Can you give me the steps for NLS and the NFB site. I need to learn to down load on to a cf card from a computer. I have a password for NLS. I never got good at it while on 5.1. Thanks for any help. I've got to master it some day. I want to down load all the Curnel books from NFB.

I had no problem in going to the site, then went to the login link and had no problem logging in with my password and users name. I then went to new books and picked one and successfully downloaded it to my download folder on my flash drive. I then opened it up with my password and it was all there no problems I next went to the NLS web braille site and logged in with my users name and password and it is real easy grabbing books or magazines from their site and saving to my flash drive or any other drive on my MPower braillenote qt. The trick on web braille when you sign in and go to a book and click on it, it opens up on your braillenote to read there or I do a control s, to save book or magazine and backspace to drive, then spacebar to folder, then press enter after giving the file a name. that is it! The nls web braille site is not your normal login users name and password like bookshare. when it ask you to login, I arrow down to where it says users name and right there I type my users name and press the enter key. Now it ask me for my password, I again right there type in my password and press enter. Now I am onn the many links for books or magazines. I only click on the HTM link, not the TXT links. The htm links will let you click on them and open up the book or magazine, then this is where you use the control key and the letter s on the qt model to save it, it then ask you folder name, which I always backspace to drive list and then chose the drive where I want it, then the folder where I want to put it, then press enter on that folder name, and now the braillenote ask me for a file name, I call it espn part one march 13 2006, or what ever you are downloading, and it puts a extention .brf on it. I hope this makes more sense to those who are having great difficulty with bookshare or web braille. So for those who are not getting logged in or can not download from bookshare it is you or something strange with your provider and not the qt or bt MPower units.
