What computer and system configurations are needed in to download and play files from this site?

You will need a computer with a Windows 98 or higher operating system, or a MAC.

Your computer will need to be set up for audio: this will mean speakers and some kind of audio media player, such as RealMedia or Windows Media Player (see below).

If you wish to transfer the audio files to a CD, you will need a CD burner for your computer (either internal or external), and you will need to understand how to use your particular CD burner and burner software.

If you wish to transfer the files to an MP3 player, you will need an MP3 player that connects either directly or by cable to your computer. Follow the directions which accompany your particular MP3 player in order to transfer the files.

What kind of MP3 player will I need to play the files
available on this site?

Files on this site are encoded in 8-bit WMA and 16-bit MP3. The MP3 player you use should be capable of playing files with this bit rate.

These are some features to look for in an MP3 player.

That it will play 8 and 16-bit MP3 files, with good sound quality fidelity

Has fast forward and rewind, while playing an MP3 or WMA file

Has the "resume to last point" feature

Displays ID tags

How do I download my audio files?

It's very simple! When you checkout and pay for your order, an Order Confirmation page will appear.

As long as your credit card has been processed successfully, you will receive an active download link on the Confirmation page for each file you purchase.

Just click the link! Use left or right-clicking according to you computer's configuration, and whether you would like to specify where to save the file on your computer, and whether you would like to listen to it as it downloads.

These options will be based entirely upon your computer's setup in handling audio file downloads.

A little experimentation with left and right-clicking will soon make it clear what your options and preferences are for your particular setup!

What are the download formats available?

MP3 format: for higher bandwidth such as Cable and DSL connections (better sound, but longer download for modems) 24 bit

MP3’s download in seconds using Cable and DSL.

WMA Format (Windows Media Audio): for low bandwidth, such as modems. WMA's offer quicker download times for dial-up connections, but the sound is not as rich as with MP3 format.

WMA files download in about 10 minutes per conference with 56k dial-up modem connections.

PC users can choose either format (MP3 or WMA) depending on their preference for download speed and quality.

MAC users can choose only MP3 format.

Different ways of listening to your selections:

You can download a conference and listen offline on
   your computer, at your convenience.

You can transfer the file to an MP3 player that plays
    MP3 and WMA audio files.

You can burn classes onto blank CD-Rs to play in your
    car or on your home stereo system

To listen at your computer, your computer must be equipped with sound, and you must have either WMA Player or Real Audio Player on your computer.

How does My Account help me?

"My Account" eliminates the need to re-enter your billing or shipping information when placing an order.

It also makes it possible to maintain an online library of all your downloads, in the event you may ever wish to download them again.

If I lose or damage my audio files, how do I
download them again?

You can do this by logging in to your personal Account, and then selecting View Order Detail history.
