JG, In response to your question about accessing more than the first book on the drive, I wasn't sure if you had the problem with just two books on the drive or only when more than 2 books were on the drive. When I tried putting 2 books on my drive, I could only access the first one and checked with my library. I had received the standard model and it would only recognize one book from the drive. After loading the latest version 2.1.3 dated November, it worked just like Jessica described. Hold down the play button and it will take you to the bookshelf. So, it all depends on whether your DBTM was shipped before this upgrade. Here is the NLS web site to upgrade your player if necessary. http://www.loc.gov/nls/DTBM/index.html#top HTH Linda -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joan Alice Maria Gibson, Esquire Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2010 4:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: NLS DTB players, usb flash drives, formating on a mac, cartrage errors Help?
Before I tried downloading an NLSdtb, The Tech person at the Talking Book Library [phoenix, Arizona] told me first how to upgrade the thumb drive [he recommends only using no more than a 2 gigabyte as it can take a 4 gigabyte max but the dtbm has to work much harder to mount it; and, he said not to use more than a 4 gigabyte. You may want to talk to the Tech person from the local Talking Book Library or the one who mails you your books for how to download the Mac Upgrade. I have forgot how to do it. I prefer the Kingston Data Traveler always but have used a Duracell 2 gigabyte without problems and Sandisk 2 gigabyte thumb drive without problems. I always delete the books from the drive, empty the Mac's trash, then remove the drive if I do not want to listen to them again. Never any problems. BTW, the dtbm is PC formatted with an older version Windows. My only problem is that if I have more than 2 books on the drive, the dtbm will not let me choose other than the first one.
