about CDDB.
About audio CD copying
Once a track is copied from a CD
directly to your portable player, it is
stored on your memory card, but not

Other players and options
Windows Media Player 7.0 or newer can also be used with BeoSound 2. Refer
to the Windows Media Player help function for further details on device use.
Mass Storage device mode
When BeoSound 2 is in iTunes mode, it will actually work and act as a Mass
Storage device. The Mass Storage device mode will make your BeoSound 2
act as an extra drive on your computer. This allows you to use, for example,
your file explorer to organise your music.
Note that you can only place music in folders when using file explorer. You
cannot use the root or subfolders. Furthermore, to be able to change
between folders as if they were playlists, you must create new folders
yourself.
If you use BeoSound 2 in Mass Storage mode, or if you load the SD card in a
PC card reader, the SD card must be scanned in order to create or update the
playlist file. This scan is done automatically if no playlist file is found on the SD
card when you switch on BeoSound 2.
If there is a playlist file on the SD card, but you have not updated it, you can
start the scan manually by pressing and holding the
∨ and
▼
buttons for
two seconds. During the scan, BeoSound 2 beeps at three-second intervals.
When scanning is complete, playback starts automatically.
You can interrupt the scanning by switching off BeoSound 2. However, this
produces an incomplete playlist file, so only part of the content is played
when you switch on BeoSound 2.
Optional accessories
A number of optional accessories are available. The accessories enable the
continued use of the BeoSound 2, for example, when travelling or during
leisure activities. For further information, contact your Bang & Olufsen retailer
– or visit www.bang-olufsen.com.

BeoSound 2 med BeoPlayer
Kopier musikfiler til BeoSound 2
’Organisatoren’ N.MUSIC i BeoPlayer sorterer automatisk dine musiknumre
efter genre, plade, titel, kunstner og afspilningsliste. Hvis du allerede har
musik gemt i N.MUSIC, kan du begynde at kopiere musiknumre til
BeoSound 2.
> Placer BeoSound 2 på docking stationen.
Docking stationen skal være i USB-funktionen (angives med et rødt lys på
docking stationen). Hvis lyset på docking stationen ikke er rødt, skal du
trykke på GO og holde tasten nede i 2 sekunder for at ændre farven.
Derefter kan du…
> Åbne BeoPlayer.
> Klikke på N.MUSIC to gange for at få adgang til dine afspilningslister og
musiknumre.
> Klikke på COPY for at få adgang til musikindholdet på BeoSound 2. Der
vises en BeoSound 2 afspilningsliste med en oversigt over musik, der
allerede er gemt på BeoSound 2.
> For at kopiere musiknumre fra dine afspilningslister til BeoSound 2 skal du
blot trække et musiknummer fra en afspilningsliste over til BeoSound 2
afspilningslisten og slippe det. Statusindikatoren under navnet på
musiknummeret viser status for kopieringen.
> For at annullere et kopieret musiknummer, skal du vælge nummeret og
slette det – enten ved at trække det over i papirkurven eller ved at trykke
på DELETE på tastaturet. En kopi bliver også annulleret, hvis du går helt ud
af BeoPlayer, eller hvis du slukker for BeoSound 2.
BeoSound 2’s afspilningsliste er
åben, og et musiknummer er ved at
blive kopieret fra listen Album til
BeoSound 2. Når statusindikatoren
under musiknummeret er fyldt helt
ud, er kopieringen fuldført.
Om BeoPlayer
Nogle af de vigtigste elementer i
BeoPlayer er en ’musikorganisator’,
N.MUSIC, og en CD-afspiller, PC CD.
På disse sider kan du læse om den
grundlæggende brug af disse
funktioner i den bærbare afspiller,
BeoSound 2. Hvis du vil vide mere
om de tilgængelige valgmuligheder,
anbefaler vi dig at åbne BeoPlayer’s
skærmvejledning.

Kopier fra en musik-CD til BeoSound 2
Du kan kopiere musik direkte fra en musik-CD til BeoSound 2. Det er en
nyttig funktion, hvis du f.eks. ikke har musik gemt i BeoPlayer og gerne vil
afspille musik på BeoSound 2.
> Sæt en musik-CD i computerens CD-ROM-drev.
> Klik på PC CD for at få adgang til PC CD listen.
BeoPlayer etablerer forbindelse til CDDB via din Internet-forbindelse for at
hente information om musiknumrene*.
> Klik på COPY for at få adgang til destinationslisterne, og vælg muligheden
’BeoSound 2’. En BeoSound 2 afspilningsliste åbnes.
> Nu kan du trække det eller de musiknumre, du vil kopiere, fra PC CD listen
til BeoSound 2 listen.
Du kan bruge betjeningspanelet, mens du kopierer, men kopieringen
afbrydes, hvis du går helt ud af afspilleren.
*For at kunne modtage CDDB-information skal du være registreret som
bruger af BeoPlayer, funktionen skal være aktiveret i konfigurationsmenuen
(hvilket den er som standard), og din computer skal være online. Hvis der ikke
er information tilgængelig efter cirka 10 sekunder, bliver dine musiknumre
registreret som ’ukendte’. Se BeoPlayer’s skærmmenu for at få yderligere
oplysninger om CDDB.
Om kopiering af musik-CD’er
Når et musiknummer er kopieret fra
en CD direkte til din bærbare
afspiller, er det gemt på
hukommelseskortet, men ikke på

BeoSound 2 med iTunes
Kom hurtigt i gang
Når du har sat BeoSound 2 i iTunes-funktionen, som beskrevet i afsnittet om
opsætning, kan du begynde at bruge iTunes:
> Placer BeoSound 2 på docking stationen.
Docking stationen skal være i USB-funktionen (angives med et rødt lys på
docking stationen). Hvis lyset på docking stationen ikke er rødt, skal du
trykke på GO og holde tasten nede i 2 sekunder for at ændre farven.
Derefter kan du…
> Åbne iTunes.
Efter et par sekunder finder iTunes BeoSound 2. Det vises i billedet af
afspilningslisten, og der vises et disc-ikon på computerens desktop.
> Trække musiknumre fra dine afspilningslister til BeoSound 2 ikonet.
Det er ikke muligt at lægge musiknumre direkte ind i afspilningslisterne.
iTunes opretter en afspilningsliste, ’music’, der indeholder alle de
musiknumre, du kopierer. For at placere et musiknummer i en anden
afspilningsliste skal du først oprette en ny afspilningsliste og flytte
musiknummeret, når kopieringen er fuldført.
Bemærk, at disc-ikonet skal være ejected fra desktoppen, før du enten trykker
på GO for at afspille musikken eller fjerner BeoSound 2 fra docking stationen.
Hvis du har en Macintosh-
computer, kan du bruge
BeoSound 2 sammen med
programmet iTunes.
Sådan arrangerer du musiknumre
og afspilningslister
iTunes giver dig mulighed for at
sortere musiknumrene efter
forskellige sorteringskriterier:
Størrelse, Titel, Vurdering, osv. Tryk
på den lille pil i øverste venstre
hjørne af listen for at få vist
afspilningsrækkefølgen på
BeoSound 2. Gå til funktionen Hjælp
for at få yderligere hjælp til brug af
iTunes.

Andre funktioner
Når du har tilsluttet BeoSound 2, tilføjer iTunes funktioner, der ikke tidligere
var tilgængelige. Disse nye funktioner findes bag de knapper, der er placeret
nederst på afspilningslisten, som illustreret til højre.
Opret afspilningslister
For at oprette en afspilningsliste i BeoSound 2 skal du trykke på BeoSound 2
ikonet og klikke på tasten mærket [+], som vist til højre. Til daglig brug af
BeoSound 2 er det praktisk at have flere afspilningslister. Det gør det nemt for
dig at finde de sorterede musiknumre ved hjælp af afspilningslistefunktionen
Næste/Forrige, der beskrives på næste side.
Opdatering af firmware
Opdateringer til Bang & Olufsen firmware kan downloades fra
www.bang-olufsen.com.
– Klik på opdateringsknappen, som vist til højre.
Knappen vises i nederste højre hjørne af iTunes, men kun, når BeoSound 2
er placeret på docking stationen.
– Klik på knappen ’Update firmware’, find den ønskede firmware-fil og vælg
den. Afvent yderligere skærminstruktioner. Når du har fulgt instruktionerne
på skærmen, oplyser et lydsignal fra BeoSound 2 dig om, at firmware-
opdateringen er fuldført.
VIGTIGT: BeoSound 2 vender tilbage til BeoPlayer funktionen efter en
firmware-opdatering. Det er nødvendigt at ændre funktionen, hvis du ønsker
at fortsætte i iTunes funktionen. Læs mere om at ændre funktion på de
følgende sider.
Denne knap giver dig adgang
til at slette dit
hukommelseskort.
Opret en ny afspilningsliste
ved at klikke på denne knap.
Denne knap har tre formål:
At se hvilke firmware-
versioner, du har i øjeblikket,
at opdatere din firmware, og
at gøre BeoSound 2 personlig
ved at ændre navn, når det
passer dig. Knappen er
forskellig i OS 9 og OS X.
Den øverste knap er OS X-
versionen og den nederste er
OS 9-versionen.
