Well, interestingly, they re-set my activation count to 3, and I already have Jaws going on this computer, so next week may tell the story.

I think in this case , you may need to acquire a dongle as an alternative , and that's probably what Freedom Scientific will propose.

Gerald:

Not so fast there!

I work as a college professor, and need a PC for my normal office work, and a laptop when in the classroom or when traveling.

So, that's two computers for work.

Then, at home, I have my main PC, but like to have a back-up, just in case I experience a
system crash like I did a few weeks ago.

So, I use three computers mainly in my personal and professional life, but have the fourth as a back-up to call into service as needed.

Why does anyone need more than one or two computers for personal use? The people who run into problems with their activation counts seem to own a zillion computers. This is absurd. Any blind computer user who owns more than two computers deserves to be scrutinized by FS.

Steve, a small objection from one who has requested new activations only
twice in nearly two decades. Agreed, requesting a lot of activations could
indicate usage outside the terms of our agreement with FS. However, it's
clear that many people here need activations for reasons to do with the
number of systems they have, the hardware upgrades they install, the
occasional mistakes they make, and so on. FS has a right to protect its
revenue source, but it does come at a cost to customers of the unrestricted
use of a program we paid generously for.

Very good as long as you don't ask for an increase in counts on a weekend
and as long as you aren't abusing it by asking for a lot of key recount
increases.

That's what I thought, so my next question is "How liberal is FS
when it comes to getting your activation count re-set if needed?

Subject: Question on activation count

Hi, all.

I'm between computers here, and have a question about Jaws activation
counts.

I know I could call FS about this, but figured I might get a quicker
answer from the list.

Regarding activations, does a single-license Jaws user like myself
have a given number of activations for each separate version of Jaws,
or is the allotted number of 3 activations constant across all
versions of Jaws collectively?

I am getting a couple of new computers set up for both office and
home, and

am trying to figure out how best to proceed, while still keeping an
older Windows XP machine around as a back-up in case that is needed as

well.

I have Jaws 12, but a few earlier versions of Jaws that I could
probably use if neded, if that would give me more activations to work

with.

Thanks!

Tom from Michigan
