As Jonathan said, using an ILM key works pretty well in this situation, and if you make any changes to your configuration that JAWS doesn't tolerate, you can always restore from a backup or snapshot to fix the problem. In fact in that sense, it's actually a much better experience than on Windows running as a standalone operating system, where I'm sure many of you have experienced repairing driver software or something along those lines, then realizing that you are now without full use of JAWS until Freedom Scientific can be reached.
However, with that said I'm curious about the Dongle. Can you provide details on the error message you are receiving? Is it actually an error message given by VMWare Fusion itself, or is Windows giving you an error? I have seen circumstances where Windows will offer a driver update which, if installed, will in fact break functionality with these Dongles until the driver is removed. This means your JAWS authorization will not work correctly until you get the matter resolved. I think this occurs if you try to connect a Dongle before the JAWS setup is finished.

I’m loath to use an ILM authorization (I shall leave my editorial comments on what I make of their authorization scheme for another time), so I’m using a hardware dongle from a prior life wherein I worked on the team that developed a widely used operating system whose name is the same as those panes of glass that some of you may look through from time to time. Unfortunately, instructing Fusion to connect my SafeNet Pro dongle to the Windows VM results in several minutes of nothing, followed by a “driver error” from Fusion. The Fusion KB seems to point me in the direction of an installed “SentinelSystemDrier.pkg” on the Mac side, except that this doesn’t exist. Has anyone gotten this working? I’d totally be cool with NVDA, except that there is some support lacking with NVDA and Visual Studio. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
