The following example illustrates (with more detail than the previous information) how
you find the song you want to play.
1. These instructions presume you’ve already done the following:
•
Installed the MusicMatch Jukebox software and the Lyra mp3/Micro Jukebox
profiler application (go to page 9 for detailed instructions).
•
Transferred music from your computer to the Lyra Personal Jukebox (page 15
has detailed instructions) and profiled the contents of the Lyra Jukebox through
MusicMatch Jukebox or the Profiler software.
Note: The music you’re transferring could be from a CD you put in your
computer, the internet, or music you already had loaded onto your computer.
2. If you haven’t already unplugged the Lyra Micro Jukebox from your computer,
disconnect the USB cable from the Lyra Micro Jukebox.
Note: You must stop the device before unplugging it. Click the
icon (the
Unplug or Eject hardware icon) from the system tray and select the USB Mass
Storage device for the drive letter associated with the Lyra Jukebox, and click
STOP. See the Windows Help for details about the Unplug or Eject Hardware
topic.
3. If you’ve fully charged the battery (the Lyra Micro Jukebox needs to be plugged in
for about 3 hours before the battery is fully charged), disconnect the AC adapter
from the outlet and then from your Lyra Micro Jukebox.
Note: If the battery isn’t fully charged, keep the Lyra Micro Jukebox plugged in
while you listen to the music you’ve transferred from your computer.
