Terry, you got a disk with the card reader because all card readers come
with a software disk; that software is for use with windows 98 and
shouldn't need to be installed for your system.
We did install software for the reader that ultimately failed, but then
found that that installation had not been necessary, so ignored it.
The card reader should work just by plugging it into the usb port on
your computer, and then inserting the card; you can remove the card
anytime for use in your braillenote.
As I recall, your card reader is the F drive on your computer.
It should work just like any drive.

Isaac;
do you have a Sandisk card reader and if so, why did I get a disk with
it?

I just plugged my card reader in to the pc and didn't put in any
software
and it worked fine.
furthermore, I didn't add software when I created a partnership for the
PK. It works fine as well.

Thanks. I was able to get on later last night. Since the topic of
web
braille has been discussed so much and others may be bored with it,
could
someone who uses it often write me off list about the process of
downloading
the books and saving them where I want them? I think I got three
volumes
downloaded, but I noticed it said they were html files and wouldn't
let me
change them or save them as anything else, such as brf files. If
there's
anything about web braille in the manual, I have not been able to
find.
Thanks everyone for your patience.
Sherry

>>>Ok, guys, don't shoot me! I know there's been a long discussion of
web
braille recently, but I have been away from home for several weeks and
in
the interest of time and managing massive amounts of email, I have
pretty
much deleted most list mail, from any list.
>>>So, as I've done before when traveling, I've been depending on my
BN
and
have been experimenting with it to learn new things and become a
better
user. Tonight, I decided to check out downloading web braille
directly,
instead of my usual way of downloading it to my PC and transferring it
via
compact flash card. I don't have access to a PC right now, so this
stirs
me
to go for it directly.
>>>I got to the web site ok, and after much racking of my brain, and
several
failed attempts, I finally remembered my log on info--I think--and got
past
the log on page! However, everything came to a screeching halt after
that!
The BN showed "please wait", appeared to make the transition to the
next
page. The braille display showed the words "web braille" and that was
it.
After a few moments, I tried the commands to move from link to link,
or
even
just to read the page. Nothing. Just the sound telling me I'd
pressed an
incorrect key, or that there was just nowhere to go!
>>>Is this a web braille glitch, do you think, or is it something I've
done
wrong in the process of getting to the site, or didn't I even get that
far?
The BN stopped showing "please wait", so I figured it was finished
downloading the page and the first page of the web braille site should
have
been displayed, but there was nothing. A complete blank!
>>>Any ideas?
>>>Sherry
