I downloaded two books last night but did not start listening to either of them. Since I did not do so, they did not get validated with Bard through the app. Now I get a message that the book is not authorized. The book I had already started works fine.
Lesson learned: Don't just download a book before a shut down. Actually start reading it at least long enough to trigger the validation. As to all the political and international sniping, I wish folks would just get a life! Life goes on and some days are diamonds and some days are rocks.. I'm sure someone said that before me<smile>. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Shawn Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2013 10:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Bard and my experience today Well as of about 10am central time Bard stopped working. Due to the temporary shutdown of the federal government, the Library of Congress is closed to the public and researchers beginning October 1, 2013 until further notice. All public events are cancelled and web sites are inaccessible except the legislative information sites <http://thomas.loc.gov/> THOMAS.gov and <http://beta.congress.gov/> beta.congress.gov. So I was like oh crap well I'll use dropbox to load some books I downloaded on my computer to put on my Bard Mobile app. I got it loaded and it told me I'm not authorized to read this material, so it looks like you can not load new content onto your Bard mobile app until the shutdown is over according to my experiences, if anyone has any other work arounds for the Bard mobile app I'd love to hear them. thanks shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
