Hi Ian
Once you've got the scripts the program is good to use. I'm in the process of 
cataloguing my record collection and just putting in the discs and letting it 
name the tracks and save them as wav files (to avoid quality loss) is amazingly 
quick.

In audible books have you had a look at the Left Behind series either in book 
form or in dramatic audio? I know it has a kind of cult following but I must 
say that Sheila and I have followed them all and they're extremely interesting 
and well produced.

Take care.

Gordon

  Gordon,
  More by good luck than good judgement I managed to eventually hit the right 
spot. Once this was passed, things were reasonably straightforward. I have 
decided to fork out the £30 for the Itunes scripts and from what I have so far 
seen I think this is really a necessity. I still think that in these days when 
inclusion is the big thing, for Apple to employ such a screen is nothing short 
of disgraceful. There page for registering is also pretty horrible too. It may 
not be exactly on topic for this list but it does seem very strange that the 
company can make such a big thing of the accessibility of there latest Mac Os 
while providing such an inaccessible system as Itunes is without the 
intervention and hard work of people like Brian Hartgen.

  Iain.

    Hi Ian
    It sounds like you're having great difficulty. I'm surprised it doesn't 
work with sighted help - you've probably tried reinstalling or at least 
re-starting the installation process, but sometimes I found that the only time 
I could access the serial number entry box was when I first alighted upon it 
(with sighted help) - otherwise it would remain greyed out.

    Sorry I can't see a way to help further, but please keep in touch and let 
us know how you eventually get round it.
    Take care.
    Gordon

      Well, I am on the point of giving up. I have tried everything and even 
had help but still cannot get that serial number entered. All I can get it to 
do is go back to the licence screen. I am amazed that in these dayys of 
disability access, a mass marketing company should be allowed to get away with 
anything as patently inaccessible. So much for the much-trumpeted power of the 
ADDA. At least the Book Courier is accessible in its setup program. How do I 
get that serial number entered?

      Iain.
