Hi all,
it seems that my poor BN has suffered its own version of a melt down.
While
on my recent trip for a job interview, I downloaded over 300 emails.
After
reading and sorting a few into other folders, I marked the rest to be
deleted. this was late at night, and I started the deleting process
after
going to bed. I woke up an hour later, to find the braille display still
reading please wait. I did an E chord to get out of there, intending to
go
back and see how many it had deleted. however, when I went back into the
email menu, things went crazy. i tried to read from the inbox without
checking for new mail. I had turned speech on at this point. the braille
note made the little sound it does if you hit a wrong key and displayed,
the
operation was completed successfully. It then went back to the keymail
menu.
i tried again with the same results. I tried to get out of there and do a
reset. It asked me if I wanted to send two messages that had actually
already been sent earlier. I know these messages were sent, because I
received an answer to one of them last night when I got home and checked
email on the PC.
So, I went back to read email and tried checking the outbox. I got the
same
message, the operation was completed successfully. I tried reading from
other folders with the same results. I tried emptying the trash that
supposedly had 16 emails in it. same message. That is the only message I
get from keymail.
So, I thought that perhaps, those 328 messages had overloaded something,
taken up too much room in the memory or something. A few weeks ago, when
I
thought I'd lost the manual, it turned out that there was a bunch of old
mail. When I deleted it all and freed database space, the manual came
back.
I moved every single document from my flash memory to my compact flash
card.
I have nothing on the braille note now except the empty folders and
anything
that was there originally. Hoping this would have freed some space, I
went
back to try to figure out the email issue but got the same results.
And now, whether I use the word processor to try to read a document on
the
CFC or the book reader to read a book on the CFC, braille note displays
the
message, no more items, instead of showing me the well over 100 files tat
are on the card.
I have been everywhere in the manual I can think of to try to find
answers
to how to fix this. I can't find anything. I have done multiple resets
of
every variety. I even tried to look around system files to see if there
was
something that should be cleared or emptied or deleted, but I couldn't
find
anything that made sense to me and didn't want to do something that could
cause more problems.
Is my braille note toast now?
