root directory?

Hello I want to update my firmware. Will the newest firmware update any of the older versions? I have a Mac. When I drag the file over, is there actually a folder on the Clip+ called the root directory that I drag the file  into??? I don’t recall seeing it but I wasn’t looking for it at the time.

Does the latest version improve anything at all over my older version :  V01.01.05A    Hopefully yes?

many thanks,

patrick

p.s.   I downloaded the update but what is the name of the file:  Is it CLPPA.BIN?  And I don’t see something called a root directory in the Clip. There are:  

MTABLE.SYS

RES_INFO.SYS

SYS_CONF.SYS

version.sdk

HELP?

Got it done! Felt like i accomplished something, whatever. Root schmoot, just speak English and call it what it is, sheeesh! Hey, while I’m here, I have 3 recorded voice files that won’t delete. Anyone else experience this? Thanks.

Root directory of the name given to topmost directory of a drive. It isn’t a real folder. On windows it gets a drive association like E: and and associated name. On a mac I think you just see a name.

So what do I do with this file? Every site I have checked just says “drop the file into the root directory.” Where, what, which file? I am beginning to suspect that I just need to drag and drop it into the same place where the folders are? There are some other files visible when I click on the player like “MTABLE.SYS, RES_INFOR.SYS” etc. Does it go there? Most non-tech people don’t know what you mean by “root directory.”

If you mean drop the file into the players main file I would understand that!

Yep, that was the solution, click on the player name, drag and drop the file into the main window, unplug, and the firmware update begins.
