  Hi...

  I am using jaws 8, media player 11 and urge. I seem to be having some problem 
to start with where when I start media player, It freezes and jaws reads the 
window wrong. For example, after it starts, I press control+e to get to the 
search box. I then tab to the library treeview so I can get to the urge 
section. When first landing on the treeview, Jaws says "library closed. 2 of 3" 
Nothing wrong with that. When I hit down arrow to get to urge, Jaws says 
nothing at all. Instead, I get a "donk" sound like it's at the end of a file or 
something. When I read current line, it says "library closed. 3 of 3". This 
should really say "urge closed. 3 of 3". At this point I figure either jaws 
froze/died on me or media player crashed. I alt f4 on media player and it 
doesn't do anything except sit there. I could do this (alt f4) 4 or so times 
and it would still do nothing. I try starting media player again. It claims it 
started, but when I read current line, it says "my documents closed". Insert t 
at this point gives me the expected "windows media player". After I alt f4 on 
it a few more times it goes away, but now I can't restart it at all (it takes a 
computer restart to get it to run again). And this is the first of my worries. 
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong here?

  The next one deals with urge itself. I try to select more than 1 track by 
doing the following:
  1. go to urge section of the treeview and hit right arrow.
  2. press control 7 to get to the artist view.
  3. press control e for the search box and type an artist name (i typed david 
crowder) and hit enter.
  4. in the primary listview, hit enter on the name of the artist.
  5. arrow down to the song to add to the buy list and then repeat steps 1-5 
for another artist.

  When I get done doing this, I hit shift f10 and hit enter on buy. I now get a 
box that says I will buy 1 track (not 2?). Does anybody know how to fix this? 
The other problem I have is when going through the different sections of the 
urge library like artist/album, I keep getting these webpages? that pop up all 
the time. All they have in them is a button that says "open parent document 
button". Anybody know how to get rid of those?

  Don't mean to sound so negative, but I have been fighting with this for 2 
days trying to figure out if the upgrade really messed up something or not. It 
would be a pretty cool player if I can get my problems fixed. tnx for the 
help...
