Hi All, It looks like I'm back in business. I couldn't remember if I had rebooted since the Cox tech came and figured it wouldn't hurt to do it again. The reboot seems to have done the trick and Open Book seems to be playing nicely with the scanner again.

Should I hit enter on add device? Thanks.

Then try to scan again. Sometimes I have to do this to select my scanner too. just unplugging will not remove your scanner off your computer, so it should be there listed just highlight it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margaret Thomas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <blind-computing@jaws-users.com> Sent: Friday, November 21, 2008 12:15 AM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Open Book Unable to Determine Appropriate Scanner > Hi All, > > A Cox technician was here the other day to switch my telephone service > from > another carrier to Cox and I've been getting an error message with Open > Book > 7.02 since he left: Open Book is unable to determine the appropriate > scanner > to use.
