you can download installers for jaws versions going just about back to Methusalah from the download section at www.freedomscientific.com Without proper authorization, any jaws installed will run in 40-minute mode. At the end of the installation, jaws should ask you if you want it to come up automatically, the default being set to "yes' on this choice. So make sure you uncheck this option. you can change it later under the "basic settings" of jaws's options. Make sure that you assign your new version a hotkey different from the one you are using for your current and default version of jaws. Finally, if you are considering a jaws upgrade, remember if you are currently using jaws 10, that while you can certainly install and use jaws 11, you will need to buy enough upgrades to bring you up to the current jaws 13. So you may just want to give the demo of jaws 13 a whirl because that will be the version you will actually be purchasing. Finally, remember to also download and install the latest version of nvda from www.nvda-project.org While not the same as jaws, nvda has come a long way and you may find it does most or all of what you need your screenreader to do. And the price tag is a good one! hth Doris At 07:20 PM 11/22/2011 +0000, you wrote: >hello >i am thinking of trying out version 11 of jaws >however i am for now happy with version 10 >so i would like to try 11 out in 40 minute demo for a week or so >can someone tell me where i can get it? >and how to install it so that it does not automatically start >thank you > >Kevin >** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- >** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] >** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: >** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >** and in the Subject line type >** unsubscribe >** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the >** immediately-following link:- >** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] >** or send a message, to >** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
