Hey Everyone,
I have a new ultrabook running Windows 8. I am connecting to the
internet with Verizon using a USB modem. I am browsing using Internet
Explorer 10 and Firefox 16. I am getting my email using Thunderbird. I
am running NVDA which can check for and install updates without any problem.
I downloaded JAWS 14 64 bit using another machine and installed it on my
Windows 8 machine. It said there was a problem with the internet
connection and some components were not installed. I have removed and
reinstalled JAWS several times with the same error. The internet
connection is fine. When I try to update authorization it says there is
a problem with the internet connection. If I do a check for updates on
the help menu it says there is a problem with the internet connection.
The internet connection is working with no problems. Only JAWS can't
find it. I don't think it's trying to use the connection because it
comes back instantly and says there is a problem with the connection.
I have successfully installed JAWS 14 on a Windows 7 laptop using the
USB modem and the Verizon software. (VZAccess Manager.)
Not sure what to check or why JAWS doesn't recognize the connection.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
