Diane,

One thing I've noticed about bookshare books is that apparently there 
can be problems in converting to daisy, especially with some of the 
older books.  When I was using the MPower (braillenote) for reading 
daisy books, I found that some would load and others would not.

So, and this isn't the greatest solution, try a different book to see if 
it loads.

I've been able to load several different bookshare books including the 
newspapers from nfb newsline on my vs.

I sure hope you can get it going.

Don
