To copy the audiobook file onto the MP3 player, it must be added to the
Sync List of the Windows
Media Player.
Click on the Sync
tab of the Window Media Player.
Attach the MP3 player to the computer by plugging in the USB cable to
both the computer and the MP3 player. Your computer should indicate that a new piece
of hardware has been detected. *This will be important when you are ready to unplug
the player.
There is a pull-down arrow for the left-side box of the
Sync
tab.
Click
on it and find the name of the audiobook file (usually near the bottom of the list). Click on the
name. This will put it in the main display area of the left-side box.
At the top of the
Sync
tab display there is an option to Start
Sync. Click on this
option. The Windows Media Player will then indicate that it is sending the file onto the
player. This is shown in the right-side box, usually labeled Removable
Disk (E:)
Once the sync has been completed, you should see a new entry in the right-side box. It
may be called “Music” and you may have to click open the small box next to it a couple
of times to get to the title, but it should then display the title. When you see
it there, the title is now on the MP3 player.
After you have verified that it is showing in the right-side box, you can click on the
hardware icon in your pc’s system tray to Safely Remove Hardware.*
(As noted in the
red box that follows.) When you get the message that it is “safe to remove the
hardware”, you can now unplug the MP3 player.
| WARNING: If you are using
an XP pc, you will need to click on the icon that indicates hardware and
"Stop" it, before unplugging the MP3 player. Failure to do
so could damage the player and/or your computer. |
Turn on the player and verify that the title is now on the machine.
NOTE:
If you leave a session open on the NetLibrary/Recorded Books website without
accessing anything, a warning message will pop up to let you know that your session
will be ended unless you click the Continue Session
button.
