Interestingly, although the other Smartpen audio settings were unchanged, and the recording time as compared to previous classes are similar, the file size has actually doubled in size (111MB!) this time. You'll notice a slight change in audio quality early on during this lecture (see/click third line of notes), when I switched from the Smartpen's normal built-in speaker mode to plugging in the "3D" earbud-mics as previously discussed, as another "experiment." The earbuds seem to cut out much of the ambient noise, including the scratchy sounds made by my own note-writing (you may have noticed this in previous recordings), albeit with a somewhat "muffled" overall aspect which may be more distracting than helpful. Techy Note (for those of you interested in such "geeky" things): Here's the link to my latest interactive class notes: You can therefore take the entire My Livescribe folder and recursively copy that to a memory stick as "back-up." However, there is no simple way to differentiate recorded sessions for individual session back-ups you would have a back up of ALL recorded sessions on your memory stick. Under My Livescribe, there are various sub-folders such as "Library" and "Data," etc. At least on my Windows XP platform, at first sync-up a "My Livescribe" folder is automatically created under the main "My Documents" folder.

(Hope that makes sense!) Q: "Is there a way to back up notes on a memory stick? I am thinking on confidential notes that you want to back up."Ī: You can manually, but not as a built-in function of the Livescribe Desktop application. For example, as in dictation, if you need to mark up previously-recorded notes, turn Record on and then while jotting down a symbol (e.g., a star or asterisk) next to a pre-written paragraph, you can dictate verbal notes of clarification without having to write it all out. Also, another related concept: If you don't have Playback on (i.e., you're not tapping on previous writing to listen to audio), you can turn Record on while going back to make additional notes or mark-ups while commenting with your own voice. Technically, when powered on, the Smartpen records the physical hand writing even when the Record (audio) function is not turned on. This is handy when reviewing recorded notes, and additional comments/insights/corrections are desired.

Q: "Can you go back to notes already taken and change or update the write up? I understand the sound can not be modified but what about the text."Ī: Absolutely! Any updates to previously-taken notes will show up on the virtual page the next time the Smartpen is docked and synced with the Livescribe Desktop. On Monday, January 19, 2009, "Anonymous" said. Those will be posted soon and ongoing, so check back here later…. Now that BL-5171 is done and over (*phew!*), I’ve finally deleted those class notes off of my online Livescribe account, and of course this means more room to upload the remaining ACC-5305 (and eventually MIS-5152) notes. Leave it to me to push the technology envelope, eh?! …But I digress…. (Funny story: My Livescribe Pulse Smartpen has on-board 2GB memory capacity, but the Livescribe folks give online user accounts only a meager 250MB of disk quota – go figure! When I called their tech support line to gently “complain,” they said I actually had managed to somehow successfully exceed the quota and upload 325MB/250MB of files to my account, and they proceeded to congratulate me as “being the first of Livescribe customer to do that.” Hmmm…. I know it’s been awhile since I’ve uploaded my Livescribe interactive notes from recent classes, but for good reason – with all the many kind requests for (and comments* about) the interactive notes, I had actually run out of disk space at my Livescribe online account!
