Hi Jean; I am far behind on my e-mail and I just read your e-mail again. both of us spell our names the same way. I am surprised Sarah C did not catch that. I was looking for her e-mail when I came across yours. Out sick a lot, back and forth to the dr., trying to catch up in the office and catch up with you all, it is almost imposible. I have made it to 3/20. I will get there in another day or two. Sorry for the error. It is also funny because your e-mail came up just before my question to Roger did. This happened once before. someone gave me my answer before it even came up on my computer. Terry Powers

I never answered your question, and the information was for Terry Klasper on a different issue. Active Sync and a connection has nothing to do with file management using storage cards.

I was just letting her know I needed a review, you might say, for how to do the item I mentioned by using the cf card. I have never used and hopefully never will use active sink. I am trying to get rid of all my 5.1 files, back ups, and down load the Curnel books from NFB. I am thinking of getting another card just for books since I only have two anyway. Then use the other card for back ups and have my bible on the third card. If anything is lost, It will not be everything.

When you take your CF card out of the card reader and put it in your BN, it will show up as a regular BN drive, which you can see from the file manager or any other application in Keysoft.

Then put the card in the now MPower. I just got it to work twice and now I have forgotten how I did it. Terry -----Original Message----- From: Jean Menzies [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 1:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Help with Connection settings Terry These are the very clear instructions that Don Bishop posted some time back about connecting the mPower to the Internet via Active Sync. I can only assume it works the same with the PK. I was amazed it worked so well. Hope this helps. Actually, connecting to the net using usb and activesync is so simple that it is almost confusing. First of all, get connected to the pc using activesync over the usb connection and establish a partnership if you haven't already. Now, for the part you were actually asking about. Create a connectivity configuration and when asked for the device to use, select ethernet. (I know you aren't going to use ethernet and don't have a card, but trust me!) If you don't need dns addresses or use a proxy server you can let the rest of the options default. Save the configuration and go back to the main menu. Now, go to the internet and select or enter a site name and hit enter. You'll be asked which connection you want to use and select the ethernet connection you just created and press enter. The web page should come up and you'll be on your way. This same procedure works for email. I just tried it here and it does work with keysoft 7 and the MPower. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry Clasper" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, March 19, 2006 7:06 AM Subject: [Braillenote] Help with Connection settings > All. > I need some fairly urgent help. > > Essentially the hotel I am staying in doesn't have wireless access and > when > I try to connect a PK via a LAN card I get an error which may well relate > to > the fact that the IP knows I already have my PC registered for the > service. > So what I want to do is to share my PC's internet connection with the PK > via > Active sync. > I can either do this via USB cable or BlueTooth it really doesn't matter. > I've never had to do this before and although have tried some fairly > simple > steps to get it working it's not having any. > The urgency is that I need my wife who's PK it is to be able to check her > mail urgently as we are from the UK now in LA and are dealing with an > eight > hour backward timeshift meaning that in few hours it's the morning in the > UK > and she will need urgent access to her messages. > Any help as ever gratefully received. > > Cheers! > > > ___ > To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit > http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote > > ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
