Hi! No they haven't. In fact, I called Freedom Scientific last week. I thought it a bit peculiar that they had made a big announcement about the release and...

I received my OB 8 CD Friday and installed it. Two things I noticed right away: 1. They have apparently dropped support for my DecTalk Express, that or I...

Being new on the list, I have a few questions. Do any representatives from Freedom Scientific monitor the list or post comments? I tried the demo of the new...
It would not seem that FS monitors this list since we never get any kind of official answer to questions that are posted. Listing comments here is probably...
As I said in a previous message, I am new to the list. If this sort of commentary is not considered proper on the list, I hope to be informed. I'll briefly...
I need to make one correction to my last message. I said that I believe there is a discrepancy between how f5 and insert f5 works in JAWS and Openbook. I...
try unloading jaws and all your other running programs first before running ob8. you do not have enough memory. the scanner is stopping because the memory...
When I tested Openbook, I probably did have JAWS running all or most of the time. I had literally no other program running except for whatever processes don't...
system restore could effect the o b 40 hour limit if it is putting this info in the registry and you restored to a time before o b was installed. when i had my...
Yes, if the information were in the registry, it would be removed. I may not have been clear. I did do a system restore to a point before the time I ...
did you delete the o b folder before you tried the reinstall? maybe the info is in there. ... From: Gene To: openbook-users@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, March...
I received my OB package today, and it comes with three discs. One's the application itself, one is an audio CD of instructions, and the third is the ...

Yes, I removed the folder. the installation was clean. It's common these days for programs not to keep timeout information in the registry. I await, very...
I don't know if Openbook installs its own Eloquence files. but it doesn't matter. It doesn't ask you anything about this. You just run the installation and...
If a self-voicing application doesn't function properly with a screen-reader, I remove it. At times, I remove it anyway. But I often leave it running when...
Gene a., I have to assume that OB8 certainly must install its own Eloquence files unless it detects the presence of sharable Eloquence files already resident. ...

Gene, just a suggestion. Have Openbook scan using the PCX imaging rather than the uncompressed imaging file format, and maybe that might make a difference in...
