Re: [all-audio] Olympus DM-720 Question
Well, the answer to that can depend on a couple of things. If you exited the menus as I instructed, and if you were already in a folder before you went into the menus, you will turn the recorder on and be in the same folder you were in before. Turning off the recorder automatically takes you out of the menu settings. However, depending upon whether you were in a folder before you went into the settings, will depend upon what happens when you turn the recorder on. When you turn the recorder on, tap the play button. If a recording does not play, or if the boys doesn’t say “file not found”, tap the play button again. Keep tapping the play button until you hear a recording you have made or you here “file not found”. That should put you inside of a folder, possibly in folder “a” if this doesn’t help, tell me what you hear or what happens and I will try again. Katrina.

Re: [all-audio] Olympus DM-720 Question
Its only really an issue for charging the battery using the USB connector. However, you should be able to set it in the device menu, by pressing the middle button below the screen to enter the menus and arrowing up to device. I can't recall exactly where the setting is right now. Regards Tim On 1 Jan 2020, at 7:49 pm, Tom Kaufman wrote: Oops! So is there a way to change it from how it's set now?
