Hi Nicki and Mike,

You can actually choose between two methods to do book transfer: iTunes
File Sharing or FTP. You can use FTP method to transfer both folder and
zipped folder of the Daisy book. If you wish to use iTunes to do the
transfer, you have to zip the folder containing the Daisy book first
before transferring the zipped Daisy book.

Using iTunes File Sharing

1. Connect your iPhone to your computer.
2. Within iTunes, select your iPhone in the source list and choose Apps.
3. Within the Apps page, move through the options and you will come to
aFile Sharing table, where you select the app you want to use
filesharing with.
4. Choose InDaisy.
5. Then comes a table showing which files are currently inside InDaisy.
Next comes an Add button, press Enter on it and choose the zipped file
from a standard Open dialog box.
6. Go to InDaisy Reader's Bookshelf and press the Refresh button on the
top right corner. Your Daisy book will be listed on your Bookshelf.

The instructions on book transfer using both methods are also listed in
the following web page:

By the way, if you plan to use InDaisy Reader to read protected books
from Bookshare, remember to unzip the protected Daisy zip file with your
password before transferring the Daisy book to your iPhone.

Thanks,
