this is very strange, I'm still using the first release of jaws 13, but me and my XP machine and my office 2003 are having little of the troubles your reporting.

I do know that many folks have troubles installing updates with the update advisor, I turn the thing off and always install from a fully downloaded version and suffer none of the troubles that most folks are relaying to the list!

and if you continue to have the troubles, ask hear yes, maybe some one has found a fix, but make sure you report it to freedom scientific as well so they know a fix is needed!

I could not get my voice to work or read the way version 12 did.
This is probably due to my lack of computer skills.
I like the original eloquence voice and could not find this when I went to 13.
The voices in 13 mis-read many words.
So, I went back to 12.

Good luck.

OK, in the past I have had few problems with Jaws betas or full versions but
Jaws 13 is causing me problems.



1.       When I press control Backspace or control Delete I hear blank
instead of the word being deleted in Word and Outlook.  Annoying to me at
least.

2.       2              I have had more computer lockups with the last
couple of 13 updates, the beta worked just fine or at least the first one
did but since then it seems I have to totally restart the system a lot more
than I did in the past.

3.       I had never had the problems of iTunes freezing up in previous
versions but in the last two updates it happens a lot.

4.       When I try to enter settings and key labels so I can silence the
spacebar it throws me back out instead of letting me see the list of labels,
odd thing is it worked a few days ago but now it does not.



I have been using Jaws since 1998 so I don't think it is my lack of
knowledge.
