NOTE: Software activation does NOT register your software, they are two different processes. See Software Registration, p. 92.

Deactivation and License Update

If you’re planning to uninstall CoPilot from one Pocket device and install the same version on another device, you need to deactivate the software on the first device before installing it again. To do this, open CoPilot on your Pocket PC. If you can’t see the menus and toolbar, tap at the top or bottom of the screen. Tap the Tools menu, select Update License, then tap Deactivate in the License Manager. Your Pocket PC must be synchronized for the deactivation process to take effect. When you re-install CoPilot on another device, you will be asked to activate it again.

Speech Volume

To hear CoPilot’s voice prompts, the volume on your Pocket PC must be turned all the way up. In the Pocket PC Start menu, go to Settings and tap on Sounds and Notifications. Under System Volume, move the slide bar all the way to the right. Or use your Pocket PC’s keypad when CoPilot is open: tap up until you reach the maximum volume.

If you installed the TTS (text to speech) voice option, you may also want to make sure the “Amplify Speech Volume” option is on — tap the Tools menu (if you don’t see it, tap at the top or bottom of the screen), select Options, and tap the Guidance tab. This option should be checked.
