but resourcefulness is the name of the game here.

Mike, thanks for trying. Another person said they were also able to download
and read it, so it's probably a braillenote glitch. 
Anyway, because of the urgency of the situation, I obtained the book through
other means last week.

Dear Sophie:

I just downloaded the book using my BrailleSensePLUS B32 running the latest
firmware that allows Bookshare downloads. I downloaded both the DAISY and
BRF versions without difficulty and unzipped and opened the BRF
(Braille)
version and could reade it in Braille without problems.

I therefore haven't a clue what's going on.

It's Absalom, Absalom by William Faulkner. Has anyone else had this problem
before?

Tell me the book and I'll see if I can download the .BRF version.

Today in class, I accidentally deleted from my braillenote the book we're
reading for class. So I went on Bookshare and downloaded it again with no
problem. However, when I tried to open it, the book was blank.
There was no
text at all in the BRF file. I tried downloading another book, just to see
if it worked, and it did. The text ppeared just like normal. So then I tried
my school book again, and it was blank again. I am at a complete loss. It is
not feasible for me to download the Bookshare book on a laptop at this time,
and I don't own a victor stream or anything like that. Any help you guys
give me would be MAJORLY appreciated since I need this book, like, ASAP.
