Yep. VFO ran a repair for me too yesterday using the method Adrian listed. Happy camper.

VFO seems to know about this because when I called, they had me follow the procedure I'll detail below, and it worked. I don't know why it is different, but somehow it is. So, here goes. First, make sure you have the .exe file on your system for the JAWS build you're running. You can download it from the FS/VFO website. Unlike before, it doesn't seem to matter where you keep it on your system. Close all running apps. Highlight the JAWS .exe file. Press shift-F10. Arrow up to "Copy as path." Press enter. Open the run dialog with Windows key-r. Press control-v, then spacebar, then / (the forward slash key), then the word "type", spacebar, and then the word "repair." Let me try that command line a different way. After pressing control-v followed by the spacebar, continue with /type repair Then press enter. The process went more smoothly than any JAWS repair I can remember, and it went all the way to the end. I hope this is useful. Adrian Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.

A hotfix for jaws 10 has just been released which corrects the problem with not being able to read the track list in iTunes 8.2. if you are already running Jaws 10.0.1151, you can update by going to the jaws menu, help, check for updates. if not, then a full 10.0.1154 release will be made available tomorrow. Added comments from Brian: J-Tunes users should not update quite yet, we will let you know when to do so, but we do not anticipate a long wait. Further, I would like to publicly thank Freedom Scientific staff who worked closely with me from the very moment the problem with iTunes 8.2 was discovered in order to remedy the situation. Well done FS! Stand by for further news on this subject.
