A: Yes. When you create a portable copy with NVDA, the Acapela plug-ins are copied over. But when you take the portable copy to a new computer, you would need to activate the license on the new computer. However, if you take the portable copy to a computer that never had Acapela TTS for NVDA installed, you will be automatically granted a 15-days evaluation, allowing you to get started before activating it.
This error could occur with versions prior to v1.2.1 after the temporary evaluation license had expired. This issue was fixed in v1.2.1 so please update your engine by downloading the latest version in the download page.

However, if you have the Kurzweil 3000 Windows desktop software installed on the computer where you're taking the test, you can utilize the Kurzweil Taskbar in Windows. With this tool, you can drag rectangles around portions of your screen, and Kurzweil 3000 will take a snapshot and OCR what's in that snapshot. In other words, the Kurzweil Taskbar should be a solution to sections of tests that are images and the student needs those images read to him or her.
Kurzweil3000.com: the Kurzweil3000.com website is fully supported to run on the latest desktop version of Windows and Mac OS. Note that it does require that your web browser support HTML5. The system requirements and supported browsers are listed here: -firefly/features.html#web
The website kurzweil3000.com, known as Kurzweil 3000 Web App. Built into the website is an HTML5 web app that acts as a "lite" version of the desktop software application that runs entirely off the website, with no installation required. Also built into the website are user management system for administrators.
The Kurzweil 3000 (K3000) software is designed to run on a full Windows or Mac OSX desktop/laptop/tablet operating system (e.g. Windows 7 and higher; Mac OS X 10.9 and higher). Typically a smart phone would not be able to install Kurzweil, however a full Windows or Mac tablet would most likely allow it. If you find your mobile device cannot install Kurzweil, the Kurzweil 3000 Subscription version utilizes a complimentary web app called the Kurzweil 3000 Web App, which can function on most mobile devices that have HTML5 support in their browsers. Please note that as there is a vast amount of HTML5 supported devices, as such we cannot guarantee every device will function 100% properly and are working on improving compatibly as time permits. With this being said, using a Chrome or Firefox browser on these devices will most likely function as expected.
If you're not interested in using Read the Web to read a LMS (e.g. Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, etc.), and want to access the kurzweil3000.com website (that contains an HTML5 web app that runs off of it, containing many of the features of our installed Kurzweil 3000 desktop app), then you will first need to whitelist some URLs related to kurzweil3000.com within Respondus for this website and our web app to be accessible within the Respondus browser:
If multiple licenses were purchased, at the end of the serial number there may be a hyphened suffix (e.g. 31300123456789-5) with a value representing your number of licenses. This suffix (-5) can be entered during the registration process if desired but is not required.
Next, try right clicking the Kurzweil program icon on your desktop and choose the "Run As Administrator" Option and then proceed to attempt to register again. If you do not see the option for "Run As Administrator" please try the alternate solution listed below.
After installation the Network Remote Client will not function until it is activated with a License-to-Go code. You can generate License-to-Go codes from your Kurzweil 3000 Network Engine (your license server). Generating such codes will "check out" the license from your server.
