Hi Betsy,

I have versions 9, 10 and 11 on my desktop computer. I guess that I kept the two older versions because sometime there are some quirks with newer versions and I have to close it and bring up one of the older version. The settings in all my Jaws versions are pretty much the same. I usually do a merge from an previous version which brings all my settings over to the new version.

I also use shortcut keys for each version instead of cluttering up my desktop. For example, Alt+Ctrl+9 brings up version 9, Alt+Ctrl+X brings up version 10 and Alt+Ctrl+J brings up version 11.

I will probably uninstall the oldest version when Jaws 12 is available. You can set the shortcut keys in properties of each version of Jaws.

take care,

Lennie

I'm just curious. Do those of you who have more than one version of Jaws on your systems, having different settings in them? I am just wondering what is the purpose. After I get a new version, I keep the old one until I am sure the new one is working properly.
Thanks, Betsy

HI David;

What I have done in the past for multiple shortcut keystrokes for multiple
Jaws versions is use the keystroke of control + J for my primary version an
let's say Jaws10 is my primary version, I would give that version the
control + J keystroke.  Now, let say my other 3 versions are Jaws7, 8, & 9.
I would use control,shift + 7, control, shift, + 8, and control shift, + 9
for the shortcut keystrokes for these versions.  If Jaws11 is 1 of the other
versions I would use control, shift, +1 for this versions shortcut
keystroke. Hope this helps in giving you a starting point .  Take care.
Mike
