The following message tells you the beginning of how to import a book to
Voice Dream via iTunes, but there are some steps I need to add. Transferring
a book to Voice Dream via iTunes is different from the other apps that can
use ITunes to transfer material to them.
First, when you navigate to the zipped file you want to transfer, you do
not hit enter on it, just highlight it by focusing on it with the up and
down arrow keys. Then, tab to the open file button, and hit enter.
Technically , it does not open it yet, it just prepares it to be opened in
the app into which you are transferring it. Under most circumstances, after
hitting the open button, you would then tab to the synch button, or the
apply button, activate it, and iTunes would transfer the file to the app.
However, to import something to Voice Dream, after you hit the open button
in iTunes on your computer, start Voice Dream on your phone, and activate
the add button, which is in the lower left hand of the screen, when you are
in the list of books you already have in Voice Dream. Start flicking over,
and iTunes is the first one, or really near the beginning of the list. Tap
iTunes,then flick around until you find the name of the file you just opened
in iTunes on your computer. If there is more than one, there is a select
all button. Tap the file name or the select all button, then continue to
flick around (in my case, I go to the left, and you will find a load button.
Tap the load button, and wait a minute, and Voice Dream hopefully will tell
you when the file, or files, have been loaded, with an okay button.
Finally, flick to the done button, and tap it.
When I couldn't get Voice Dream to import files, I admittedly went through
some frustration and use of profane language until I got it figured out.
Although, in my opinion, it is almost more trouble than it is worth, It will
work.

Subject: Re: importing audio books for voice dream
Hi Joe,
These steps are off the top of my head, as I am not near a computer at the
moment. Hopefully they are close enough to help you figure it out.
If the audio book comtains several files, you first need to zip them up on
your computer.
2. Connect your iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes.
3. In the left hand column, in iTunes, go down to where you see your phones
name.
4. Tab until you get to apps, I think the option is and press the space bar
to check the apps checkbox.
5. Tab across until you get to the list of apps that can transfer documents,
then use your up and down arros to move to voicedream.
6. Once VoiceDream is highlighted, tab to the add button and activate it.
This will open a standard open file dialog.
7. Brows to the zip file you created and press enter on it. This should then
copy the book to your iPhone.
Once this is done, you can disconnect your phone from iTunes. When you
launch VoiceDream and hopefully you will see the audio book in VoiceDreams
library.
Hopefully I have all these steps correctly. If not hopefully someone else
can chime in or i can check this out tonight to varify the steps, if you
don't get it working.
Hope this helps,
Brett.

Good Afternoon from a hot south-east of the UK, here is my lack of
knowledge.
Running Voice dream reader, I can, given enough time, import files for
VDR to read from dropbox.
However downloading files is a slow process.
I can see how to get music media in to an Itunes library, but What is
not clear, is how to import third party books in to itunes, for further
synchronization with an I Device.
If somebody could shine some light on this for me, that would be just
the best news today.
Kind regards and thanks.
Joe
