I can certainly understand why you'd want to just connect your Victor Reader Stream, rather than removing the SD card and either putting it directly into a slot if available on the computer, or inserting the card into a card reader, but I've always just done this because I understood that the Victor is rather slow and other card readers are much faster. I wonder if that might change the situation for you.

Vmware recognizes the Stream by name and asks where I want to connect it but after I choose, it never actually connects as far as Windows is concerned. I rarely really need to connect the Stream directly, only if I had a new Stream and had to activate it in Audible or maybe if I ever wanted to use Humanware Companion. But it drives me crazy! I have other devices that connect in Windows with vmware but just not the Stream. It's one of the few reasons why I am considering doing bootcamp eventually though it's not the biggest reason. I called Humanware about this once and was just vaguely told that they had heard of it happening with some computer setups. Does anybody have any ideas about what to do about this? it isn't crucial most of the time, but I'd sure like to solve it. A tech person from Audible got on my computer when I was running vmware with xp and he couldn't figure it out either. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
