Hi. I have two machines both running Jaws 13.
When I started one of them up this morning, I was running Jaws in 40 minute demo mode, so I had to activate Jaws again. The other laptop has been absolutely fine. I've not had to reactivate Jaws on that machine at all.

Elaine, I haven't changed anything on the computer. All I did was to turn it on this morning. Of course, we did have the storm last week and my power was out for a week. It returned last Monday at about noon and the cable, including the internet, returned on Wednesday. But that was several days ago and nothing was changed as a result. And I used the computer for a few things before getting my internet back with no problems.

Hi Miriam Have you altered anything significant on your computer lateley? I recently had to purchase a new CD drive and after it had been installed, had to re authorise jaws. I do however get the same thing with my older xp computer, it just removes the authorisation after a reboot. very frustrating. Dont know if this might be what happend with you though.

I'm really confused. This is the second time this has happened to me since I got my new computer last December. I keep up to date on paying for jaws and Magic upgrades although I don't always choose to update the programs. Example: I've received CD's for upgrading Jaws and magic in the past few days but have decided not to do so at present. This morning, both Jaws and Magic informed me that I was using temporary versions of the programs and had to re-authorize them or they would run out within a short time. Luckily, each provided the authorization number and I could easily re-authorize them without difficulty. If I'd had a problem, I'd have had to wait until tomorrow when FS is open. I'm wondering if this happens to other people and if anyone can explain why it happens. It's really inconvenient, particularly for someone like me whose technical capabilities are so limited. Is it some kind of FS policy or just a gliche?
