Hello, In brief, the situation is as follows: Two different accounts for OSX and Windows both, one for personal and one for work, to keep things nicely separated. Tried to share the VM between both OSX user accounts by placing the VM in /users/shared, and now Sharpkeys mapping for right option to capslock/insert is no longer remembered, and even after reauthorizing JAWS, the authorization is not remembered on either Windows account and regardless of the OSX user logged in at the time. More detailed explanation follows in a numbered list if it is helpful.
1. I have two different OSX user accounts -- one for personal use and one for use at my work. 2. I want to share my virtual machine between these two user accounts, so I followed instructions I found through a Google search which directed me to put the .vmwarevm file into /users/shared 3. Now, my JAWS authorization is not remembered, nor is the right option key acting as my insert key as I had set in Sharpkeys, although it does still function as the capslock key, for some strange reason. 4. Sharpkeys 3.5 does not appear to work non-visually, so I am unable to set the right option ke as my insert key again. 5. Not that this necessarily matters, as the VM will mirror files and folders of the current OSX user, but I had created two Windows accounts as well -- one for personal and one for work, just to sort of keep things similar. I think I am complicating things, to be sure, and I had heard that JAWS will think the authorization has been moved off the computer if the VM is moved, but why would nothing I originally have set be remembered, such as my insert key mapping through Sharpkeys? Also I did reauthorize JAWS last night, and it said it was successful, but it is not remembered anymore, no matter what OSX account or Windows account I am on. Sometimes I just hate JAWS and Windows both, but I need to take advantage of Microsoft Word and Excel.
