CHAPTER 31 Common Questions
When your device is in Drive Mode and is connected to a computer, you can open files from your
device’s drive on the computer using Windows Explorer or My Computer (on a Windows
computer) or Finder (on a Mac computer), and work with them there.
Your device still displays alerts, such as for appointments or new email messages, when in Drive
Mode.
My device and/or the expansion card is not showing up as a drive in
Windows Explorer or My Computer when I have the device in Drive
Mode.
WINDOWS ONLY
When you turn on Drive Mode, connect your device to your computer, and then open My
Computer or Windows Explorer, the window you open shows two new drives. These drives are
assigned the next available drive letters, for example, E:, F:, and so on. If no letters are available
because you have multiple external devices connected to your computer (such as a card reader or
a camera), or because you are using mapped network drives, the window does not display your
device or the expansion card as a drive. To display them, remove some of the external devices
connected to your computer, or remove some of the mapped network drives.
Calendar
I selected the Today button, but it does not show the correct date.
Make sure the Set Date box on the Date & Time Preferences screen displays the current date.
I created an event, but it doesn’t appear in Week View.
• If scroll arrows appear on the right of your screen, scroll down to see if the event appears farther
down the screen.
• If you have two or more events with the same start time, the events appear as multiple bars
starting at the same time in Week View. To see the overlapping events, select the individual bars,
or select Day View. For more information, see Finding events that overlap
.
