Guitar For Dummies, 2nd Edition, CD Update

Guitar For Dummies, 2nd Edition, CD Update

This CD is intended to play on a computer, in an audio CD player, or when downloaded to an MP3 player. Sometimes, though, the tracks play correctly only on a computer or when downloaded to an MP3 player and do not play correctly in an audio CD player.

If your CD is yellow, black, and green; then your CD plays correctly on a computer, in an audio CD player, and when downloaded to an MP3 player. You can ignore the rest of these instructions!
If your CD is yellow, black, and red; then your CD plays correctly on a computer and when downloaded to an MP3 player but does not play correctly in an audio CD player. Please read on.

If your CD is yellow, black, and red like the above image, tracks play correctly in the order listed in the book when you play this CD on a computer or download the tracks to an MP3 player. However, when you play this CD in a CD player, the tracks are in reverse order from what?s noted in the book, with the exception of Track 1. Track 1, as listed in the book, corresponds to Track 1 when the CD is played in a CD player. However, the book?s Track 2 is actually Track 98 in a CD player; Track 3 is Track 97; and so on. When you play this CD in a CD player, use the following table to navigate to the track you want to hear.

As a shortcut, you can quickly find the CD track without using the table by subtracting the track number found in the book from 100. For example, Track 27 in the book is CD Track 73 (100 ? 27 = 73); the book?s Track 84 is CD Track 16 (100 ? 84 = 16); and so on.

If the following table doesn?t answer your questions, please contact Wiley Technical Support at http://support.wiley.com or call 800-762-2974.
