Hi Mike!
No problem! I'm glad I could help.
I've always done online activations so I've never needed anything but my
serial number for both programs. But I guess it would be a good idea to
save the authorization numbers, just in case a time comes along where
online activation isn't an option.
By the way, where did you get your iBarstool? that sounds like a nice
accessory to have! <snicker>
Cheers!

Hi Gene,
Good find! Everyone should save a copy of their authorization & serial
numbers for both JAWS & Openbook in a text file that can be accessed quickly
when needed. I can't count how many times I've needed this information when
updating Jaws or Openbook. Thanks much.
Take care.

Hi Everyone!
Ignore my previous question, I found it, and in doing so, may have found
a way for Adam to get his full authorization code, at least it worked
for me. This will only work on an already activated copy of JAWS.
Steps:
1. Press the JAWS key + the J key, for me it is Insert+J
2. Go to the help sub menu.
3. Go to the Update authorization option
4. You'll get a dialog with several buttons, click the Start
Authorization button.
5. In this dialog, choose manual activation, then click next.
6. In this next dialog there is a read only field with your locking
code, and two input fields, one has your entire authorization code, the
other is for your license code or serial number.
7. Copy the authorization code, then cancel out of the dialog.
hth
Cheers!

Where do you go to see this authorization number, I thought it was in
the about dialog, but all that's there is my serial number and the
unlocking code. Both of which are shown in their entirety.
Cheers!

Howdy Señor Ferrin,
That's why I said , * it might work for you*. But, it seems to me
that I've
used a program in the past that unhides text in other situations & I
can't
think of it's name.
Take care.

Mike, that program reveals passwords in your browser or email client. I
don't believe it would work in this situation. Good guess though, an A
for
effort.

Hi Adam,
1st a suggestion. You should put your signature below your message, so
people will read your post & not think you forgot to include a question
because they're seeing your signature 1st.
Look on this website for a program called Asterisk Logger, it's a
password
revealing program, it might work for you.
