IE9?
Hi,
I am not using I E 9 yet, but here is a message that NLS sent out about
downloading books from BARD. I would assume the process would work the
same
for any downloads, including book share. If this does not answer your
question, I am sure an I E 9 user can give you further assistance.

Hello List Members,
Those of you who have started using Internet Explorer 9 have probably
noticed that downloading doesn't work the same way as it does with earlier
versions
of IE. The process can make you think nothing is happening, which can be
confusing and frustrating. Fortunately, however, it's easy to download
with
IE9
once you understand the changes.
When you download a book with Internet Explorer 9, the prompt to download
or
save appears in a toolbar called the Information bar. You can respond to
this
prompt in one of two ways. One is to press Alt-N, which brings focus to
the
Information bar where you can choose whether to open or save the file. The
other is to press Alt-S, which bypasses the Information bar and chooses to
save the file.
Once you press Alt-N and choose to save, or press Alt-S, the file begins
to
download. To see the progress of the download, press Control-J to open the
View Downloads dialog box. Within this dialog box is an Options button
that
takes you to a dialog where you can choose whether to be notified when
downloads
are complete.
If you realize that you made a mistake and you don't want to download this
book, press Alt-N to go back to the Information bard. Focus will move to
the
Cancel button, so press Enter to cancel the download.
By default, Internet Explorer 9 saves to a folder called Downloads in your
User folder. If you want to change this location, do the following:
1. Press Enter on the link to download a book.
2. Press Alt-N to bring focus to the Information bar.
3. Press Tab to the Save split button.
4. Press Down Arrow until you reach Save As.
5. Press Enter.
You are now in a standard Save As dialog box where you can change the file
name and download location if you like.
We hope this information will help you download the books you want using
Internet Explorer 9. Happy reading.
The BARD Technical Support Team

IE9?
Hi folks, I am using Windows7 and IE9, when I go to Bookshare.org to
download books. Everything is as normal, until I press Enter on "Download
in
Daisy". Then the "Notification Bar" comes up and tells me to use Alt + N,
which I do, but nothing I then do, let's me activate the "Save" button!
Does anyone have a tip for me?
I would be so grateful! I've run out of new books to read! Help please.
Vicky
