I'm getting the same thing. I'm using nvda and can't get the helper to download with internet explorer, firefox, or google chrome. Maybe I need to install jaws just to get it. Anyone got any ideas on this issue? ----- Original Message ----- From: Shane Christenson To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, April 27, 2012 8:42 AM Subject: Re: Streaming all your music to your iPhone or iPod using Audio Galaxy
One thing I have trouble with, is downloading the stupid helper on the desktop. I get this dialogue box that says close button, or the no thanks link. I can't seem to navigate within that dialogue box. i"ve tried it with both jaws 12 and NVDA. Any suggestions? I called fs, and they suggested I install some java stuff, and so far, that hasn't even worked. Shane On 4/27/2012 4:41 AM, Raul A.
