Re: [JAWS-Users] question about office 2016 and demo mode

[Fernando Gregoire]

Hi.
Even when I know newer products well, I think that Office 2000 is the
better Office old versions. Even when new versions have online help and
tool tips on each control, you'll not find anything as convenient as the
What's this? feature which provided help on each menu item and dialog
control.

Regarding your trial, you'll need to activate it. Depending on your
computer's manufacturer and model, the required product key may have came
in a Certificate of Autenticity (CoA), a label on the machine or in the
user manual. Alternatively, you might need to register your machine with
the corresponding manufacturer utility for that, and then sign in into
Office with the e-mail account you have used for registering.

Hope it helps at least a bit.

Re: [JAWS-Users] question about office 2016 and demo mode

On my new laptop, Microsoft Office programs offered options allowing me to
buy or activate a license as soon as they were started. If this doesn't work
for you, try visiting https://products.office.com/ where you can buy an
Office 365 subscription. Be sure to choose a plan that includes the desktop
office programs.

Hi all,

I have been out of commission for the past while and will catch up.  I got
one answer to my questions about 2016 being accessible, and even looked
through the archives for thunderbird help as it wasn't reading right, so
nice job, guys.  I searched for thunderbird through google and got what I
needed.

I assumed that I would get a free trial of office which came with this
computer as it came with windows 10 and office 2016.  I can read and provide
feedback by E-mail to someone however, I can't write or use the program at
all.  A message I found with the mouse indicated that most features are
locked until activated.  I thought I would be trying for 30 days then it
would lock.  I don't have office 365, I don't have anything 
but a new windows 10 PC.   So, how can I benefit from a trial if I'm 
granted one?  I'm inquiring as well on other things to get this purchased as
a subscription for me so I can keep up on the changes. 
I've been a long time word 2000 user, and realize I need to learn the newer
products to be competitive.  I found it easy to get the word count of an
article i submitted, but I can't use it at all.  Thanks for any help.

[JAWS-Users] question about office 2016 and demo mode

[Jared Rimer]

Hi all,

I have been out of commission for the past while and will catch up.  I 
got one answer to my questions about 2016 being accessible, and even 
looked through the archives for thunderbird help as it wasn't reading 
right, so nice job, guys.  I searched for thunderbird through google and 
got what I needed.


I assumed that I would get a free trial of office which came with this 
computer as it came with windows 10 and office 2016.  I can read and 
provide feedback by E-mail to someone however, I can't write or use the 
program at all.  A message I found with the mouse indicated that most 
features are locked until activated.  I thought I would be trying for 30 
days then it would lock.  I don't have office 365, I don't have anything 
but a new windows 10 PC.   So, how can I benefit from a trial if I'm 
granted one?  I'm inquiring as well on other things to get this 
purchased as a subscription for me so I can keep up on the changes. 
I've been a long time word 2000 user, and realize I need to learn the 
newer products to be competitive.  I found it easy to get the word count 
of an article i submitted, but I can't use it at all.  Thanks for any 
help.
