Hi,
The only difference here is that I installed today's download of version and 
allowed it to overwrite the one that was already present, which according to 
the install messages, was perfectly legitimate to do.  I'm not saying it was 
okay, I'm just saying that's supposed to be all right.

I did reboot, also.  Regarding the messages below, I don't get why you 
present them here, nor do I know why they're followed with what looks like 
file sizes.  When I first launch Audible manager, even if I have my Sandisk 
Sansa M230 plugged into the USB port, it at first notifies me that the 
player is *not* connected.  I think that's just a stupid default message 
that always comes up when you launch.  If I simply wait a few seconds, 
without doing anything, Audible Manager reconsiders, takes a look at the USB 
port, and says that it's coordinated with the player.  I consider this a 
little eccentric, but not indicative of anything bigger in the way of a 
problem.

I'm also wondering why apparently your audible Manager tells you that one 
model Sandisk isn't connected, then another model.  It can only be set to 
work with one mobile device at a time, and it's that device it looks for and 
eventually reports hooking up with.  But two?  And what's with the file 
sizes?

In any case, you say now you can navigate the interface without getting 
stuck in the Details View of a program in the list view of your Library 
folder?  Is that the way in which you've been successful, now?  If so, I'll 
do it all over again, and bother to uninstall Audible Manager before 
installing it again.  God, is this a hassle.  Much as I appreciate Audible's 
value as a resource, I have never in my life spent more time in terms of 
hours agonizing over a product, discussing it with tech support people, and 
trying repeatedly to make it work than with Audible Manager.  I mean an 
incredible number of hours of my life.  If this were what happened when you 
bought a Toyota, Toyota would long be out of business, same for a Dell 
computer, a stereo receiver, whatever.  It's completely crazy.

anyway, I'll try again.  But please respond to the questions above.  Thanks.

Daniel. I did it!

Would any of these sound familiar? Sandisk Digital Audio Player Not
Installed 49KB
graphic 284  graphic 65  Sandisk Sansa e100 series Not Installed 49KB
graphic 85  graphic 142  Sandisk Sansa m200 series Not Installed 49KB

I went slowly this time. I extracted the scripts to a separate folder,
as instructed, on the desk top, copied them and pasted  where it said
to.

I uninstalled the old Audible Manager and restarted. I downloaded the
new version and installed it and restarted. This may be important: I
emptied the recycle bin. Also during all these operations, I kept the
firewall off.

Tell you what, I'll give it another shot, more analytical, now that we
know this is not automatic.

Well, that's good and bad to hear.  Good because I don't feel as if I'm
the
only one still having troubles with AM 5, but bad because, if this
wasn't
the purpose of the new scripts, what was?  I'm not sure what to think
any
more.

I compiled when I found it was acting as badly as it had when I first
installed version 5. I, too, had followed the instructions, got the new
version and scripts. No luck. Now I count myself lucky that I was able
to get version 4 going again.

thanks for describing this action, which I'd forgotten the steps for.
I'll
try it, but how could I have known this had to be done?  There was no
mention of this in any of the step by step FAQ instructions.
Thanks.

Hi Yardbird,

maybe the scripts aren't compiled yet?
To compile them, open the audible files that have the extension .jss
with
the script manager.
You can open the script manager using the command JAWSkey+F2, then
selecting
the Script manager from the list, or even easier, from within audible,
open
the script manager with JAWSkey+0, meaning 0 above the letter p, not the
Numpad.
To compile them, press control+S, and JAWS should report a successful
compile with something like "compile complete".
Close the scripts with control+F4.
As I recall, there was another file included with the script set with
the
extension .jss, locate it either from the script manager with control+O,
or
you can also open it from the Windows explorer.
Compile this script with control+s and close script manager.
See if that helps when using audible.

Good luck,
Nermin
