< A virtual hard drive will now appear on your computer. If you’re using Windows, this new drive will be listed under My
Computer. If you use Mac OS, the virtual drive will appear as a hard disk icon on your desktop.
< To view the contents of the MicroTrack 24/96 CompactFlash card, browse the contents of the new virtual drive on
your computer. For Windows users, double-click My Computer, then double-click the drive. For Mac OS users, simply
double-click the hard drive icon shown on the desktop.
< A window will open showing all of the files contained on the MicroTrack 24/96 CompactFlash card. If you’ve only
made one recording so far, you will find only one file here. If you’ve made more than one, all of these files will be
found here.
< To copy the file from the MicroTrack 24/96 CompactFlash card to the computer, simply drag the file from the window
to the desktop of your computer or to any other location of your choice. When you drop the file in the desired location,
it will be copied to this new location. The original file will still remain on the CompactFlash card.
< To disconnect the MicroTrack 24/96 from the computer, you will first need to “unmount” the virtual hard drive as
follows:
• For PC users, click on the “Safely Remove Hardware” icon located in the System Tray, which is in the corner of the
taskbar where the computer’s clock is displayed. After clicking the icon, click “Safely remove USB Mass Storage
Device” from the pop-up menu. In a few moments, a message will pop up stating that you may now safely
remove the hardware. You can now disconnect the MicroTrack 24/96.
• For Mac users, simply drag the virtual hard disk from the desktop to the trash can. Don’t worry—this does not
delete the contents of the MicroTrack 24/96 CompactFlash card. This will simply unmount the drive. When the
icon disappears, you can disconnect the MicroTrack 24/96.
