Hi Chris, Thanks heaps for the info. As I can remove the license manually, I'll go install the program on to the other computer, then remove the license when finished, and for future reference, I'll try the trick with the sd card if when a new version comes out my computer is still not recognizing the brailleSense. When mass storage device mode is turned on, the braillesense sometimes shows up in computer as a removable disk, but folders are empty. Strange. And it was working fine a few weeks ago. Thanks again and hope you have a good day. *smile* Andrew -----Original Message----- From: gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chris Grabowski Sent: Wednesday, 27 March 2013 2:23 AM To: gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [gps-talkusers] Re: computer not recognizing brailleSense as storage device and pc gps license The other thing you can do is if your computer has a working sD or CF card reader, just do the auto installer and point it to your SD card. When the system is done copying the files you can then manually move the "sense Navigation" folder from your SD/CF card to the flash disk of your Braille Sense. Once the folder is moved do a hard reset.
