Hi Jorge I believe we are talking about the same things. What you called the certification disk sounds like what Freedom Scientific calls the authorization CD. You receive this CD the first time you receive JAWS or certain other FS products. The only thing on the CD is the 20 digit authorization number which you may be referring to as the key number. You also receive the authorization number in print and Braille on the Jacket of the original CDs, but not on a SMA Cd. This 20 digit authorization number is a hexadecimal number (base 16). It has the digits 0 through 9 and a through f. If you insert the authorization CD into a computer, the authorization number will be saved on that computer. When you originally install JAWS or a version for a new SMA on a computer, you will need this number to authorize JAWS so you don't have to run in 40 minute demo mode. Also if you change certain hardware in the computer, the JAWS locking code will change and JAWS will need to be reauthorized. When you're authorizing JAWS, if the authorization number was stored on the computer, it will appear when needed. If the number wasn't stored on the computer, you can insert the authorization CD to save it, or enter it manually. I hope this is what you're were looking for.

The authorization code that FSActivate shows you on the screen which has your remaining authorization count is only part of your authorization code and won't authorize JAWS. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Ann Marie Medlar Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2014 02:57 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] activation J15 Key I know my serial number and found locking and authorization but when I copied and pasted it I got an error code from FS. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Boyd" <blindb...@comcast.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2014 1:47 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] activation J15 Key > > Ann Marie, > > Do you know your serial number?
