Which forum can help with a 10 year old Rocket e-book?

Sandrac · 11-10-2010, 05:44 PM

Hello All:

I'm new to this site and am looking for help with a brand new, never out of the box, Rocket e-book, that I gave to my brother as a gift several years ago. (It was discovered while clearing his house in preparation for a move.) I would like to down load some children's book onto it and give it to my seven year-old grand daughter. Is the device too outdated to use? For a start, I can't connect it to my MacBook Pro as the Macintosh-to-PC adapter provided with the Rocket e-book isn't compatible.

If it is still viable, which of your forums should I go to for further advice?

Thanks and Aloha,

Sandrac.

Thank you to Desert Grandma and Pooh Bear for your direction to the appropriate forum. It seem my first order of business is to get connected to my MacBook Pro! However, the batteries don't seem to be taking a charge so it may be moot.

I appreciate your help. Thank you.

Sandrac.
