create and name folders on your SD memory card. Milestone 212 reads the name of
folders. That helps you navigating through your folder structure.
2.8.3. Deleting files and folders via computer
The Milestone 212 offers ways to erase files, but often it is quicker to delete files and
folders via a computer connection. Use standard operating system functions to delete files
and folders from the Milestone, as it will behave just like any other computer drive. When
you have finished transferring data, disconnect Milestone 212 properly from your
computer.
Attention: If you erase files on your Milestone 212 via a Mac computer, empty the trash bin
afterwards. Otherwise the files are not really removed, only their links are deleted.

main difference between intelligent and regular audio books is the ability to navigate to
chapters, pages and further sectors of the intelligent book. So, this allows you to move
