Hi,

To be honest, you'd be better off letting zoomtext automatically check for updates itself. It does the job much better than going through the process of doing it manually.

So go into zoomtext, ctrl +S for settings, scroll down the menu to program. Press enter.

Now you're in the right area, go to where it says automatic updating, then, tick the check box labelled "Check for online updates each time zoomtext is launched".

This will do the job for you rather than having to visit any website to do it.

hope this helps,

Justin

Subject: [access-uk] ZoomText: "check for updates" problem



Hi there,

I'm wanting to update ZoomText.

Under: Programs / Zoomtext I clicked on the 'check for updates' option and have been taken to an internet popup page that will eventually lead me to finding the correct update version I need. It's called InstallShield Update Service. It looks rather cool but unfortunately it tells me that I don't have Active-X controls enabled in my browser and hence can't use it.

The 'Show Updates' button is unavailable as a result.

It tells me to check my security settings but I've tried lots of different options now and can't work out which things to enable and disable for this service.

Can anyone tell me how to get this updating service working? Is this a known issue or do I have to do something with Active-X on my PC?

Or maybe there's another way of updating ZoomText?

Like jaws, is there a way of finding out which authorisation numbers are able to receive updates?

Any help much appreciated. I'm a bit new to this ZoomText lark.
