Hi Fanus, If you can connect to your modem via WiFi from your PC and from your iPhone then you are using WiFi. You can verify this by checking to the left of the time in the status bar. If you see something like 3 of 3 bars or 2 of 3 bars followed by your WiFi name that means you are connected to WiFi. What I of course don't know is what your data limit is on your cellular modem. Do you share a set amount of cellular data between your modem amd your iPhone or they on separate plans?

So, yes, I have a modem to which I connect from my PC or iPhone via wifi and the modem takes a simcard which then connects to the cell network. I have never tried to communicate from the iPhone to the PC via the wifi network, so I am not sure if it is possible.

That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at work my cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit to how much data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an issue. . I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like you are using cellular data for everything.

I am curious. You asked if I can't do it with wifi. Well, I have a wifi network because I have a wifi which allows me to connect to the cell network for internet purposes. How would one do a wifi transfer?

Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone, go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your book on the computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments and the book should be added, now if you sync your device the book should transfer.

You can use either iTunes or even better dropbox to import them into voice dream. On 11/18/14, Fanus <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Richard > Thanks for this.
