Be careful when changing from one font to another. I only have two fonts installed on my Cybook, but my Cybook seems to recognize 4 place holders for fonts. I accidentally selected one of the empty place holders and my Cybook would reboot every time I attempted to open a book....it seemed to be in a perpetual loop. I was concerned that I would have to contact Bookeen for assistance, but somehow I fiddled around with it enough and was finally able to get to the menu to change the font back to a valid font.....whew!
I have half a mind to contact Cybook and get the restore procedures and firmware, so i have it on hand just in case something gets messed up and I need it. Last edited by ProfJulie; 02-11-2008 at 08:25 PM. |

1. Put ALL your books on an SD card. If you never touch main memory, you minimize the chances of corrupting the file system. All I use main memory for is fonts. 2. ALWAYS use the "safely remove hardware" tool in the Windows system tray (or its equivalent in other operating systems) before disconnecting the USB cable. This is what I do and I've never experienced a problem. |

But having this new Cybook corrupt files just by adding new content to is doesn't fill me with warm fuzzies. |

I wonder why this happens for many people. Can the general quality of SD cards be worse know than it was a couple of years ago so it is just an effect of this? |

I ended up reformatting the card completely and that (at least for the time being) solved the problem. Quote:
The card is hard to seat correctly. You really have to push it in to get it to "click" into place. More than a couple times, I got the card in enough to register in the Cybook while it was on, but it didn't lock into place and the card immediately popped back out. Probably corrupted things at that point. |
