Jason,
Try rebooting your system after you go through the process of
reassigning a new hot key and see if that works.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] creating shortcut key not working
Hi list,
I have been having trouble with shortcut keys. I had the short cut key
control alt J for Jaws 7.0 and control alt K for Jaws 6.20. I am going to
install Jaws 8.0 and so thought I would change the Jaws 7.0 hotkey to
control alt K instead of Jaws 6.20. I always like to have my old version of
Jaws as a back-up, incase I have problems with the new version. I lost my
Jaws 7.0 hotkey of control alt J when I did a repair of Jaws recently. I
therefore did the following procedure to reassign the new order of hotkeys I
want. I selected Jaws 6.20 on the desktop. I then pressed applications. I
arrowed up to properties and went into it. I tabbed across to the create
hotkey section(or whatever it was called). I deleted the current hotkey of
control alt K. I heard Jaws say something about "none". I tabbed to the okay
button and pressed spacebar. I went back to the desktop and selected Jaws
7.0. I then followed the above procedure. However, instead of deleting the
hotkey(there wasn't one to delete anyway), I typed the letter K. I tabbed
and shifted tab back to make sure it had taken. I heard Jaws say Hotkey
"control alt K". I tabbed to okay and hit spacebar. However, when I unloaded
Jaws 7.0 and pressed the hotkey "control alt K", nothing happened. Jaws
didn't come up speaking. I had to reboot in order to get Jaws 7.0 up again.
Have I done something wrong here?
Thanks a lot
Jason
