The easiest way to download web Braille is to place the books downloaded onto a CF card on the pc and then insert that card into the BN. The card will show on the bn as a compactflash....... The cf card, when used with the pc, will require the card reader, which, when used plugged into the USB port of the pc, will show as another drive. Be sure you have the correct drive for the card before downloading the volumes of web Braille.
After inserting the CF card into the BN, Enter the book reader and backspace to the cf card drive and then get to your books; how the books are accessed from the CF card is determined by whether or not you have made a folder on the CF card, if not, the book volumes will download into the "none" folder. If the none folder doesn't come up on the CF card when the folder menue is shown, type it in at the bn prompt with the questionmark. Remember, always save each volume with a brf extension so the book reader can read the file. Kim is correct also, the transfer using active sync works too, just more of a hassle. ----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kim Lookingbill Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2004 7:01 PM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Web Braille Hi: - With Downloading web braille books, I found it just as easy to download the books directly to my hard drive, and then do a cut and paste process using active sync to the BN. In this way, you are able to transfer everything all at once into the directory of your choice on the BN. I've never had any issues doing it this way either. All the best. - Kim Share your yesterdays, dream of tomorrow, but live for today!!

No, in Web Braille, it's completely different from Bookshare. You have to use the "save" command and choose the drive and folder or directory you want. One thing I find annoying is that no matter how many times you choose differently, when you download a book in Web Braille, the bn always assumes you want the General folder on the flash disk. In other parts of Keysoft, when you copy or move a file for example, it assumes the last drives and folders or directories you used. Why then this thing in Web Braille? Every time you save a volume, and you must save one volume at a time, quite a tedious task when you have a ten volume book, do you constantly have to go in and change the drive, folder or directory, and on and on? It just adds to the workload. What about it Jonathan, is there some way to make the bn remember what folder you last loaded a book into instead of having it assume you want General on the flash disk? thanks and hth Richard > ----- Original Message ----- >From: Keao Wright <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [email protected] >Date: Mon, 2 Aug 2004 14:41:13 -1000 (HST) >Subject: [Braillenote] Web Braille >Hello all. >When I try to read a book from web braille, it takes me to the web >sight for the book.
