Cindy, if you seriously cannot connect to the net to activate JAWS, consider activating using a code from www.fsactivate.com, or contact your local dealer and they will help you activate it. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cindy Handel Sent: 03 December 2009 01:15 To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Installing JAWS on a Netbook OK, I found that I'm typing the code correctly, but I 'm not connecting to the internet. I have to figure out how to get into Network Connections to check my wireless connection information. This is all so new and very hard to do in 40 minute mode with JAWS. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rich Cavallaro" <richcav1014@xxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 7:34 PM Subject: Re: Installing JAWS on a Netbook Hi: You must be typing in the code incorrectly. Here is what I would do. I am sure you have another computer with the cd drive. If I remember correctly, the authorization cd should put the 20-digit code in an edit box. I would take that code and then just copy and paste it into a text file and/or just have both computers there with you and type it in manually into the netbook. What I have done for a long time is keep a text file with my 20-digit code on a thumb drive so I do not need the auth cd when I am installing on pcs since activation is done over the internet anyway. hth Rich Cavallaro ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cindy Handel" <cindy425@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: "JFW" <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 7:26 PM Subject: Installing JAWS on a Netbook > After working, for quite awhile, I got JAWS 11 installed on my new > netbook. > It has Windows 7 Starter on it, so I'm not familiar with this OS, at all. > But, I got JAWS installed and have been trying to enter the authorization > code, to activate JAWS.
