I think the Audible update is now installed, but it took sighted assistance, guesswork and a questionable inference that we succeeded. Even with a mouse, the downloaded file wouldn't open. So I went to the automatic updates option in the Audible Manager help menu and located the Audible update file. However, I couldn't do anything with it with JAWS. My assistant had to get it going with the mouse.
The installation seemed to go through, but there was never any confirmation. Also, Audible seems wary of assigning version numbers, so I couldn't determine if what I have matches the update version number. Next, I found the version number of my current Audible manager with insert-control-v, then plugged it into Google with a few other search terms. This somehow produced a new Audible page where the links lead to the standard download method. I was hoping to obtain the file number this way. I didn't. However, Audible told me I already had a higher version on my system. Hence the dubious inference that I succeeded in installing the upgrade. I guess I'll know for sure on or after July 15, when old versions of Audible cease to function correctly. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kimber Gardner via Jfw Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2015 11:03 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list.
