Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc
Has the laptop got an internet connection? What operating system is it? You could always phone FS and ask them otherwise it is going to be difficult unless you can download something like NVDA on to a memory pen to run on the laptop. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Melissa Tucker Sent: 09 July 2012 19:19 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc I got myself a used laptop as a backup computer and I'm trying to get a demo of jfw's latest version on cd.

Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc
Hi Melissa, Here is the direct download from Freedom Scientific 64 bits version for windows7: ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/JAWS/J13.0.924-64bit.exe If you can, copy the above URL on a flash disk and when you get to the laptop using windows, plug the disk into it. Assuming there is nothing else on the flash disk, try to navigate to computer and open the flash disk. Usually, windows will automatically open the drive and I do believe that pressing enter on the first item will open the drive and you just press the spacebar to select the link and then press enter to start the download. I am not on a windoews7 computer now, but normally you would want to save the download, but in your case, tab to the run and press enter to start the installation of Jaws. Jaws will start talking and help you to walk through the installation. On my XP computer, I can only tab twice to find the run button. Let me know if you are not using windows7 or if you need the 32 bits version, I will send you the link for that one. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc
Narrator is really not reliable enough. The best option here is to download the release off of freedomscientific's website in this case. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Becky Buckner Sent: Monday, July 09, 2012 1:38 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc Hi Melissa.

Hi Becky, you should be able to download a demo of Jaws 13 on the Freedom Scientific site. - Original Message - From: "Becky Buckner" To: Sent: Monday, July 09, 2012 2:37 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc Hi Melissa.

Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to obtain a jaws disc
I don't believe Freedom Scientific will send out a demo disk, but you could call them and ask. Am I understanding you correctly that you cannot go on to their website and download the latest version?
