2.8.3. Deleting files and folders via computer

If you want to delete data from your SD memory card, you can do so either by using the 
according button combination on your Milestone 212 Ace, described under chapter 5.4 of 
this manual or by connecting your Milestone 212 Ace to a computer. You may prefer to 
delete files or folders through your computer and use the standard operating system 
functions, which you are already familiar with. Your Milestone 212 Ace will behave just like 
a regular external drive, when connected to your computer. Please always remember to 
properly disconnect your Milestone 212 Ace from your computer, rather than just 
unplugging it.

Caution:

 When deleting data through a Macintosh computer, please make sure to empty 

the trash bin, before disconnecting the Milestone 212 Ace, to permanently delete the files.

Helpful hint:

 It‘s highly recommended to back up the Milestone 212 Ace‘s internal memory 

to an SD card on a regular basis, in order to avoid data loss.

3. Books

The Milestone‘s „Books“ application is a DAISY player, which is compatible with various 
other intelligent audio book formats. Intelligent audio books offer improved navigation 
features, such as searching, creating bookmarks or skipping chapters. Your Milestone 212 
Ace supports the following formats in the “Books” application:
