Hi.
Do you have a notification chevron button on your system tray? Press
windows+b and use left or right arrow and see if you can find that. If
so hit that and see if that makes SpeakDropbox appear. If that is the
case here are the instructions from SpeakDropbox's documentation on
trying to fix that
1. SpeakDropbox either says no Dropbox icon found when there truly is a
Dropbox icon, or can't find SpeakDropbox icon when well, obviously
SpeakDropbox is running.
This could happen if windows decides that either application isn't
particularly active right now and hides it's icon to make room for
more pressing matters. I solve problems like this which haunt screen
readers as much as something like SpeakDropbox by going to the task
bar customization page in control panel. Easy way to get there could
be just to type "task" into the search box of start menu or start
screen. Find something about task bar. May be "task bar and
notification", perhaps "customize the taskbar". Once you get it,
look first for a combo box that has something like 3 items in it. If
you get the right box, there should be one item that says "never
combine". It may be helpful to change the combo box to this option
also. But the big fix is to hit the customize button. Look in the
resulting dialogue for something like "always show all icons and
notifications on the task bar". Checking this and then choosing ok
ought to solve this particular problem nicely.

Hi.
Hold down the alt and windows keys and press m as in menu.
SpeakDropbox's menu should appear.
Arrow up to something about SpeakDropbox version 13. press enter to
check for update, and do just that, whack the enter key on that. The
rest should be pretty much automatic. I had a computer earlier not
manage to close the currently running copy of SpeakDropbox fast enough,
so the installer errored and said I needed to close speakDropbox first.
But SpeakDropbox closes itself, just not quickly enough in all cases it
seems, so just hit the ok button like you did what it said, and all
should be fine.

I think this is on topic since SpeakDropbox interfaces directly with
JAWS. If not, let me know and I won't post update notifications here.
In the meantime, version 14 is released, mostly with improvements to
sound output. See the change log for full details. If you need to
download it directly http://valiant8086.com/applications/speakDropbox
