re the new victor stream

2014-01-12 Thread brian parker
Hi, you will have gathered that i have just received my new victor. 
this is about recharging the battery. in the old days, one had to let 
a rechargeable battery run all the  way down before recharging it. 
otherwise, it  would lose some of its charge. so, what about these 
modern batteries. does one hav to wait to let the battery  run all 
the way down, or can one charge up the battery, let us say, when 
there is still ten per cent of the battery left. brian.

I forget what kind of batteries are in those things, but Leo says that the
stuff from the old days does not apply to Lithium batteries. It's just stuff
that stuck and people keep boath doing it, and advising it. But it's not
true. He's talked to experts. He didn't name names.

You need to initialize the device via Audible.com's Audible Manager, 
as you would with any other device.  Hope this helps.--Matthew Chao

Assuming you've already installed the Audible manager, you should have an icon 
on your PC's desktop. Once it is open, press alt-d and arrow down through the 
activation options. Before going there, turn off the Stream, insert an SD card, 
connect the Stream to your PC, then turn it back on. It will then be controlled 
from the PC.

In addition to the comments previously made, make sure you have the firmware 
version that recognises Audible
