Hi Ken.

I haven’t tried navigating a newspaper since the update, but I gather from the NLS listserve it works the same as before. 

Press space-j.  You get a list of navigation levels.  I think level 2 is sections, and level 3 is articles.  Press the round enter button on the level you want.  

Then use the up and down thumb keys to jump to the next item in the level you’ve selected.  

 

I haven’t changed my publications in a while.  I think I put a check mark on the ones I wanted.  The first time I logged into Newsline using the Reader, it picked up the publication list I already have on Newsline in my Pocket.  Maybe you’ve already selected several publications to use via the Amazon spy or on your phone?

Hi list ken here. Two questions about reading NFB newsline. First when synching content how do you tell the reader I only want this particular publication I selected the associated press national but saw no synch now just the list of national newspapers. When closing this and synching I got several papers.  Second of all I don’t want to read cover to cover.  Usually in the morning on the phone or the computer or the a lady I’ll read the features section, the nation section and sports section of associated press.  I don’t read every of each section how do I specificly say I want to read features or nation or sports.  I tried navigating levels but that didn’t seem to work on newsline.  That only seems to apply to braille books with more than one volume.  I sure don’t want to go through the copyright notice and all that every time I read something.  I also don’t want tosit there and wait for it to get to something I actually want to read.  Any pointers and any place in the manual I should look?  Thanks.
