That's me again. I have been investigating this problem further, and I found a whole can of worms. Here goes:

Just before I received my 1150, bought on eBay, I had investigated and downloaded the necessary software, i.e. USB drivers and Librarians. Consequently, I had both the GEB Librarian and the EBookwise Librarian. Since I had registered with Breeno and thought the programs were the same (the registration number works for either program), I only used the GEB Librarian, and an USB driver that was, I think, version 3.

What I just discovered, to my astonishment:

- GEB Librarian, as downloaded form Breeno's, is version 1.2 build 370

- EBW Librarian, as downloaded from http://www.ebookwise.com/librarian/help/, is version 2, build 65, apparently a more recent version ! But this, by the way, does not prove in any way that it is a more recent version, if different numbering schemes have been used.

- On the same page at http://www.ebookwise.com/librarian/help/, there is a link, http://www.breeno.org/eBook/Windows_eBookUSB.exe, that points to a version of the USB driver that reads, in its "about" box, as version 1 (year 2002, loooong ago!).

- But at eBookTechnologies, the driver's box reads "version 3".

After reinstalling eBookwise Librarian and the "version 3" driver (can't access my 1150 with version 1), I am now unable to access the 1150 in any way!

I do not doubt that by removing and reinstalling the proper software in the proper order (a reference to the order of reinstallation for the Librarian and eBook Publsher you mentionned), this will work anew in the end.

But could you please tell me what are the most current versions of the software, and in what order they should be installed, this for the USB driver, the Librarian (which one should I use?), and EBT's eBook Publisher?

Your answer could make a nice "sticky" out of that mess, I think...
