I recently discovered if I unzip a book to a folder on my computer (rather than directly onto the USB with no folder) and then copy the folder onto the USB stick everything starts playing properly. This is true David, thank you for your reply; and it is what I have been doing. I originally found th...

Just an update... I downloaded the m4b file for Dead Men's Money - first m4b file I have downloaded ever. It all comes thru as one file, so in order to figure out whether it plays properly, I will have to listen to the whole book again... will do that as soon as I finish The Moonstone, which I am in...

Until this is fixed, it might be easier to use mp3tag http://www.mp3tag.de/en/download.html to fix the track numbers Oooo... I will try that... I did get a note that Dead Men's Money is now up as as an m4b file. I am downloading it right now to my computer, to see how it works. Will let you know ho...

Ok, I went to see when each of these was cataloged, thinking that perhaps it all happened at a particular period of time. If so, it was a pretty long period of time. This is what I found about the catalog dates: The Rosary by Florence L. Barclay 2/25/07 Dead Men's Money by J.S. Fletcher 6/27/07 He K...

the zip file is made automatically by Archive when they derive the other file formats. Didn't see this one, but thank you... another step is checked off on my mental list. I didn't know this, and with the note Anne posted, I think I'm getting an idea of how the process. Thank you for this. <><

files have their permissions checked during the cataloging process now

So this would mean that the people who do the cataloging are the ones who decide if a file is regular or read only, right? Sorry, I'm old and don't always understand how things work... <><

Is this something that might happen when it's submitted to iTunes? No, it is something that would be done either before the files were zipped or when they were zipped... I need to go back to see if these are solo projects, or if they are a bunch of different people - sorry don't remember. If solo, ...

Ok, I just tried to change Dead Men's Money to an audiobook in iTunes, but because the files are all "read only" (i.e. "locked"), I can't change anything. I know this also a problem with both He Knew He Was Right and The Rosary, by Florence Barclay. Most of the books I have downl...

Dead Men's Money - the ID3 tags for "Contributing Artist" are not all the same which might cause file(s) to not sort correctly. J.S. Fletcher J. S. Fletcher This would do it... don't know if I looked at that. I am also looking at some other things. When I originally posted this error mess...

I was able to correct my copy of the book using audacity, but can't remember exactly what I ended up doing... so... I am going to download the book again and see if I can recreate the problem... I am fairly new to using the ipod for my player, and have since learned that I can let itunes know that t...

I had never read any Anthony Trollop before He Knew He Was Right , and really can't remember how I found it, but I loved the book... though I was not really happy with the way it ended... You did a great job with it... very clear voice, easy to listen to. Thank you for doing it. I am now listening t...

I'm sorry about the long delay. The side effects of a series of colds are still with me, and I'm still a bit nasal. I'm recording again now .. a chapter on orchids done. I'll be back here soon. Don't worry about it, Peter, my computer crashed out completely about a month ago, so I haven't been here...

Section Four ready. I did ask for help with the Norwegian words, but didn't receive any suggestions, so my guesses will have to do. Peter Trust me, my suggestions for Norwegian words would be so off the wall that you would NOT be able to use them... picking up section 4 will pl later this evening o...

Yuck! Colds are no fun at all... though I do have to admit they do make for some pretty funny sounding recordings... oops, not going there... I'm still hanging out here, and can wait till you're ready to get back "into the swing of things" as my mother used to say... hope you're feeling be...
