Hi Alice: If you only want to back up the address book, I'd just copy it. From the Main Menu, press F, then C. Go to the Flash Drive, and to the Keylist file. At the "list of files" prompt, press Space with X so that you see "hidden files". When you see address.cdb, press Enter. You'll be asked "copy to which folder"? Go to your drive, and I would just put it in the "none" folder.
As far as your list that you backed up, I'd probably erase that folder. If there is something in that folder, they are "hidden" files. Since it says "zero" I suspect it didn't copy. Good luck with the PK. ----- Original Message ----- From: "alice dampman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 2008/05/06 03:33:27 Subject: [Braillenote] backing up the address book > > > Hi, everyone, > Thanks to Shaz, I got my PK up and running again, but it seems that my > battery has to be replaced.
