3.2.3. Save or delete files in the folder structure
3.2.3.1. Data transfer via computer
On M312 Ace you can save text, music, books and more.
Select the desired files on the computer and "Copy". Then open the drive of your Milestone 312 Ace or its
inserted SD card and save the previously selected data with the command in the desired folder. Make sure
that enough free space for your files exists. In addition to the comprehensive 12 gigabyte internal memory
of your Milestone 312 Ace, you can use SD and SDHC cards up to 32 gigabytes to archive your documents.
Please observe the following guidelines:
Extract CDs to your computer before you copy them to M312 Ace:
In the application "Audio" on your Milestone 312 Ace files of formats MP3, AAC, WMA, WAV, MP4, M4A,
M4V files can be played, as well as text files in TXT and DOC. These formats can be copied directly to the
Milestone. However, commercially available music CDs must first be converted with a program such as
CDex, Windows Media Player or iTunes, so that your M312 Ace can play the music files. This is the usual
process to save music files to a computer. The above-mentioned programs convert the music tracks into
smaller, universally usable formats.
Save each book in a separate folder:
The application "Books" reads your M312 Ace digital books in the DAISY 2 format, DAISY 3, EPUB, Audible
AA and AAX. Please store each book in a separate folder to keep track and to avoid mixing with files of
other books.
3.2.3.2. Delete via computer
If you want to delete data from your Milestone 312 Ace, you can do this either with the appropriate hotkey
or by connecting the M312 Ace to a computer. If you want to delete files or folders on the computer, use
the delete command of the PC or Macintosh operating system.
Note: If you delete the data on a Macintosh computer, make sure the trash bin of your computer will be
emptied. Otherwise, only the link instead of the entire file is deleted and no space released. Eject your
Milestone 312 Ace properly from the computer before disconnecting the USB cable.
4. Basic Applications
This chapter describes how to use the three applications "Audio", "Books" and "alarm clock", which are
included in the basic functions of your Milestone. The most versatile of these applications is called "Audio"
and combines the following main features: Music Player, Text To Speech Player, recorder and radio
stations. The application "Books" opens the door to the world of digital audio books. This application will
play the book formats DAISY, Audible, EPUB, NLS and BookShare. The application "Clock" is an easy to
use alarm clock which makes sure that you will be woken up on time and also includes a handy timer and a
stopwatch.
4.1. Audio
The application "Audio" is very extensive and plays a wide range of file formats. In audio, you can listen to
your music collection or read a text file. Audio combines a music player with a text-to-speech player. In
addition, Audio is a full-fledged recording device. You can create your own voice messages with the built-
in microphone, or high-quality recordings of concerts, meetings and so on recorded through an external
microphone. All files whether music, text or voice memo can be stored in an arbitrary folder structure, like
a computer. This folder structure can be created and adapted via a USB connection to the computer.
