Hi Nancy, You will have to paste the document into another one. The new document can be a text document (Notepad) or a Word document.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Researcj OtResearch It
Hello Jorge, Research It is a feature that is part of Jaws for Windows, so there's no need to download any additional program. I believe that it was first introduced in Jaws 13, so if you have this or any newer version, it's part of the package. It is a feature which allows you to check the weather, flight schedules, use Ocr scanning for various images and documents, convert currency, and quite a few other functions which I can't remember off the top of my head.

Re: [JAWS-Users] activation J15 Key
Hi Jorge I believe we are talking about the same things. What you called the certification disk sounds like what Freedom Scientific calls the authorization CD. You receive this CD the first time you receive JAWS or certain other FS products. The only thing on the CD is the 20 digit authorization number which you may be referring to as the key number. You also receive the authorization number in print and Braille on the Jacket of the original CDs, but not on a SMA Cd. This 20 digit authorization number is a hexadecimal number (base 16). It has the digits 0 through 9 and a through f. If you insert the authorization CD into a computer, the authorization number will be saved on that computer. When you originally install JAWS or a version for a new SMA on a computer, you will need this number to authorize JAWS so you don't have to run in 40 minute demo mode. Also if you change certain hardware in the computer, the JAWS locking code will change and JAWS will need to be reauthorized. When you're authorizing JAWS, if the authorization number was stored on the computer, it will appear when needed. If the number wasn't stored on the computer, you can insert the authorization CD to save it, or enter it manually. I hope this is what you're were looking for. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of TheHangMan Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 06:01 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] activation J15 Key Hi Mike, I never knew there was an activation code, since I can't see the screen and jaws never read anything out to me?

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Finding USB 3.0 ports
Fortunately, new PCs and new storage devices are becoming USB 3 compliant. Where you may have to be careful is when you are considering buying a storage device that is on sale, because it may be a closeout, and may be USB 2. My PC at work is so old that half of the USB ports are only USB 1.

[JAWS-Users] Dropping Wifi Connection
Hi, After updating my HP Envy from Windows 8 to 8.1, my wifi connection frequently drops when I put the computer to sleep or shut it down. When this happens, I just reestablish the connection and everything works fine. This happens probably about half the time. Is there a way to keep the connection from dropping? I very seldom had this problem before updating. Thanks, Scott Duck For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding USB 3.0 ports
Hi Rose, Does this port work at all? And, can you actually insert the drive or other device into the port? You could have a bad port if nothing works in that one particular port, or if a device refuses to plug into it, you may be trying to insert a USB device into the HDMI port on your computer. They are almost identical, but the HDMI port has two of the corners which are rounded while the USB ports are square at all four corners. It can be hard to determine why a USB device will not work in one port, but will in another, I have a Kingston 3.0 flash drive, and two USB 3.0 ports sitting side by side on my notebook PC, and the drive will work in one of them, but not the other. All of my other devices will work in either one. Go figure.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Dropping Wifi Connection
Scott, Not sure, I have the same issue with sleep mode but I went into the power settings and changed it; now it doesn't drop the connection as often when I wake it up. So, take a look around in the power settings under control panel. Unfortunately, the web is replete with lots of complaints about wireless issues after updating to 8.1. Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
