I think the stream and the Book Sense both handle 32 gig cards.

Hi Olivia,
I think I can help you. I say think very lightly. I used to be a
Stream user who used Windows, and obviously now have switched to the
Mac. Okay let me see if I remember the first question, to format the
SD card, you do it on the Stream directly. This is accomplished by
pressing the 7 key on the numpad a few times till you hear format SD
card. It will ask you to confirm by pressing the pound key. Once you
press it, it will say formatting SD card and report back when the
format is complete. Once that is done, you will have folders like VR
audible, VR music etc. Yes, you can place talking books on the same
card as music. You just place the talking books in to the VR DTB
folder. I'm switching from the stream to the Ipod on my Iphone, I
think the largest card the Stream can handle is a 16GB but I could
be wrong. It is much faster if you were to get a Stream to copy
content via the card reader than the Stream's USB port itself. The
Stream shows up on the desktop once you insert the SD card in to a
card reader. You just hit command O to open like normal and all the
folders are there. I hope this has helped you. The only thing I'm
unsure about is the Audible authorization. That might have to be
done on a Windows machine, since the Audible version on the Mac
assumes you are using Itunes on an Ipod. Well, I hope I have helped.
Have a wonderful day. Thank you for your help on the Iphone, it is
much appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
I'm looking at the Q and A's that someone sent earlier today (Thank
you, who ever sent these! :) I have a few more questions, as all of
the material I've seen works on the assumption that people are
using windows.
1. How do you formatt the stream's card? The material discusses
various folders to copy certain kinds of files into. So, how do I
take a blank SD card and make it work with the stream's folders
using a mac?
2. Can I copy music files and put them on the same SD card as
talking books?
3. I'm assuming that the SD card would simply show up in the finder
and content can just be coppied between devices that way.
I'm still considering whether or not to drop the money on the
stream, or if I would simply be fine with my iPod, iPad, etc, as
they work better with a mac. I would welcome people's thoughts and
opinions!
Thanks!
Olivia
