dedicated file on your computer such as “My

Reader via USB cable to your computer. Turn
on the EZ Reader and press “OK” button. This
should bring up a “What do you want Windows
to do” dialogue box. Choose “Open Folder to
View Files”. This should bring up all of the
folders that you have on your SD card or in your
device embedded memory.
After this window is opened, everything is just
“Copy” and “Paste”. Minimize the Opened EZ
Reader screen on the computer, open “My
Books” or “My Music” or “My Pictures”…
click on what you want in the EZ Reader…
right click and choose “Copy”… and then drop
it into the EZ Reader file screen you just
minimized by hitting “Paste”.

Make sure your music you load is MP3
formatted and your pictures are JPEG only of
less than 1GB.
That is about all there is to it! The download
