Hi Dave, I think a fresh install would maybe help, because I used to be able to temporarily fix this, now even that doesn't fix it. The response is more or less regular, but I think something else may disturb it, either kind of masking it or slowing it down. Half the time the response is more or less correct. But the reason could be my machine: Toschiba Portege r500. Did you try these? One factor may be very limited CPU 9(1.2) and 1 giga ram. But I recently heard that 1 gigga ram is supposed to be enough for Sibelius. I don't know how much That plus JAWS plus Sibelius Access requires. Still I imagine I have enough, no?

But I can't imagine why you have such poor response to something as simple as pressing the spacebar to stop playback. Something sounds seriously messed up either with your hardware setup or the installation of Sibelius/Sib-Access. What again is your hardware setup that make it so unique?

Sometimes it takes a few presses for a hotkey to activate something (like playback, for example); and other times the execution is slower. So once when I wanted to stop playback, I pressed stop, it kept going. I press stop (space) again, it stops and restarts. Here, I thought that my space had no effect, but the thing is the response took time. I sometimes need a few presses to punch in an accidental, as another example. I just remembered this bit now,as I'm trying to fix a defective passage of my piece.

One other occurrence that I could have forgotten to mention and that is present in both releases is a message that occasionally passes: "you cannot move this item"" when I hit a note for example. It doesn't persist, but then I don't hear the real information. Any more ideas? Thanks in advance.

Now I don't hear JAWS say stop plug-in often as before, but it passes through the screen as before. And while the plug-in occurs twice instead of once and the message appears and disappears, the time lapse is huge between when I get onto an item and when JAWS announces it also as before. And sometimes when I navigate quickly, I get this sound signal as if I've done a keystroke that has no effect. One major improvement that helps matters a bit: in most cases JAWS doesn't repeat the previous item after you are already on a new item, but announces the correct item. But one notable exception that is not the same as before but similar happens with slurs. As I tab around, I pass a slur and JAWS announces it. However, after I leave the first slurred note while tabbing, sometimes JAWS announces the same slur again, so I once got the illusion that there is a new slur (because JAWS says slur but I'm on a different note), but it turned out that no slur. One new problem: new messages that come and pass as I navigate. One frequent case is "the plug-in is not running correctly.". The message doesn't persist, but it prevents JAWS from announcing the item I am on now and gets me lost and I have to return. Hope this sheds some light on any potential solution.
