I am feeling very puzzled as whether to send my son age 5 to full day or half day kindergarten starting next week. If I send him full day he will not get the ...
If you have the option, and you are already set up with good therapies elsewhere, I would do 1/2 day. It took my sons that year of 1/2 day to get physically...
I have to agree with Robin and add an additional note. At least in Illinois where we are from, therapies at school are not even close to the therapies done at...

M4p is the digitally protected version of the mp3. Is your computer capable of burning CDs? If so, burn the tracks to a CD and then reupload them into iTunes....
thanks for the info Shelley. I guess iTunes has that one figured out too. I burned them onto CD but they are still m4p files!!!! I also got word from Dynavox...
Last time I checked the Dynavox devices are having a hard time playing MP3 files. The reason has something to do with Windows XP and the fact that they add...

I said that Windows add a little extra to the MP3 file name but it's actually the .wav files, sorry about that. But I too have a hard time downloading MP3...
Usually you can choose the file type you want... .wav or .mp3, or even a couple of other odd ones. I have downloaded a couple of albums onto my son's device ...
Welcome...that is very cool that he did well and liked the Dynavox. I saw a demo of the Tango.... I think it may be good, too. You will probably be able to...

Shelley's directions were accurate... But, step by step: 1. Buy the song from iTunes. 2. Burn to a CD on your computer, and take the CD out of the computer. ...
