Garth, I think you're right. I kept whittling down the size of the files until it worked. Finally, at about 15MB, the files could be imported into Downcast. I don't know if there's a size limit somewhere greater than 15MB, or if there was something peculiar about these files.
(See new viPhone message inquiring about DropBox, which is related to this experience.) Thanks.

Sounds like you are doing everything properly. When I do this, and get to the point of tapping th the export button, it brings up a list of available apps including Downcast. All works well. Maybe its something to do with the size of the file. I have only imported shortish files in this manner, i.e. around 20Mb. This is just speculation though.

Wait for the file to download. When it has downloaded, the Export button will no longer be dimmed. You can now double tap it and Downcast will be one of the options Finish the import in Downcast and the file will be in the list of podcasts under a podcast called Imported X Garth Http://www.iblindtech.com<http://www.iblindtech.com/> Sent from my iPhone On 13/10/2012, at 12:57, "Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D." <kramlinger.ke...@mayo.edu<mailto:kramlinger.ke...@mayo.edu>> wrote: Thanks in advance.
