Moving books to folders in Voice Dream Reader [was Re: may have asked this before]
Hi Brenda, To move books in Voice Dream Reader from one folder to another, 1. From the All Items home screen, double tap the Folders button in the top left corner. 2. On the Folders screen, flick to the folder you wish to move books from and double tap. (I usually have these outside of folders on the All Items screen and start from there. If you already have folders you set up, and just want to move books into them, you can skip all the earlier steps and just start at step 3.) 3. Double tap the Edit button in the top right corner. 3a. Flick through your books and double tap to select entries. There is also a Select all button in the bottom left corner, and an Unread button 1 flick to the right of it. 3b. When you are finished selecting items, double tap the Move to button that is the 3rd of 4 buttons at the bottom of the screen. (The 4th button is Delete). 4. On the Move to screen, flick to the folder you wish to move your books to, and double tap. If you need to create a new folder, navigate to the Add button at the top of the screen, just right of the Move To screen heading, and double tap. 4a. A new folder with the default name of Folder will be created at the end of the list under My Folders, and focus will be at the end of the text field for that name with the on-screen keyboard enabled. 4b. Give the folder a new name, e.g. Other Books, and double tap the Done button in the bottom right corner to dismiss the keyboard. 4c. Double tap the Done button in the top right corner to leave folder editing mode. 4d. Double tap the new folder you created to select it as the Move to folder. You can also reorder or delete folders when you are in editing mode. The reorder button is to the right of each folder entry. When focus is on this button, do a double tap and hold anywhere on the screen. Without lifting you finger from the screen, move the entry up or down to the position you want before releasing. The delete switch button is to the left of each folder entry. When you double tap delete, focus will be on a Confirm deletion button. To avoid deleting the entry, either flick left back to the delete switch button and double tap it again to toggle it off, or double tap the Done button in the top right corner of the screen to exit editing mode altogether.

Ah thanks for that. I’m not the original poster but it’s nice to know this can be done. It seems a bit convoluted for lack of a better term, but if it works then all is well. Be blessed.

Re: Moving books to folders in Voice Dream Reader [was Re: may have asked this before]
Hi Sarah, Maybe the quick conceptual way to describe moving books to different folders is that any actions that involve moving or deleting items in Voice Dream Reader requires you to be in Edit mode in that folder or screen. When that occurs, the buttons at the bottom of the screen change from ones that deal with the reading and display of the current folder's contents to buttons used to select all, move to another folder, or delete. Apart from that, you only need to know how to navigate to folders from the default All Items home screen (using the Folders button in the top left corner to go to a Folders screen that lists your folders), and how to create new folders. You can either create new folders with the Add button on the Folders screen, or, if you started moving books and suddenly realized that you never created a the new folder to hold them, by using a similar Add button at the top of the Move To screen. Adding new folders automatically puts you in edit mode, since many people want to be able to specify a name. If you just want to take the default value, and deal with renaming later, when you're on the Move To screen after double tapping add at the top of the screen, just double tap Done at the bottom right corner (to exit the on screen keyboard) and then Done at the top right corner (to exit edit mode). Then do a four-finger tap on the bottom half of the screen to go to your last folder (which will be named Folder), and double tap to move the contents there. The instructions only get long when there was no previously created folder. In most cases, there are already folders, and you just select the one you want to move to on the Move To screen. Also, I probably should have left out the general editing information at the end of the instructions, but they're included just in case somebody needs to know how to delete or reorder folders. I suppose that we can assume that anyone who wants to change folder locations already knows how to navigate to folders in Voice Dream Reader, but the instructions are stuck in there for completeness in case someone creates a folder they later want to get rid of. The only part of the explanation that I remember for myself is the need to go to Edit mode in the starting location, so that selecting items allows me to use a Move to button at the bottom of the screen.
