Hi,
I recently bought a Pocketbook IQ for my daughter--she's getting it for her birthday next week--but there are a number of things I'm having trouble with and the documentation isn't very helpful, so I'm hoping someone can answer these questions.
1) I've loaded pictures into the photos folder (jpg files), but when I try to use the Gallery program it comes back saying "no media found?" Is there some trick to viewing photos on this?
2) I've put some PDF children's books on the reader but they're fairly large files and they take forever to load and sometimes do weird things, like moving off the center of the page. Is there a better PDF reader available than the one that comes loaded on the IQ?
3) I've tried a number of times to update my firmware--even buying an SD card. According to the directions Pocketbook provides the reader is supposed to give a message Eclair (PB701.2.0:3) when it's completed, but I never get that message. It seems to me that the firmware never completes loading (the bar only goes about 1/3rd the way across before it ends and goes to the welcome screen. Is there something wrong here (either with me or the machine)?
I'm really not looing for anything fancy from this reader--just giving her some books, photos, and a few videos. But to be honest, none of those things seem to be working too well at the moment. Thanks in advance for any help.
