Installation
Troubleshooting ::::::::::::::::: Generally,
installation of ScIVGold is trouble free. However, there are a couple of issues
that can sometimes cause problems, mostly having to do with the security settings
for your system. Sylvan respects your security measures and the installer
takes no actions to alter them.
1)
The installer must write some values to your system Registry to tell Word
that the Sylcount is available for use. Be sure that you have full Administrator
privileges on your system during installation.
2)
Some system security software, while properly doing its job, can prevent the
installer from writing the necessary Registry entries and even prevent the
writing of needed system files. You may want to disable such software for
the few minutes it takes to install ScIVGold.
3)
Product registration via the Internet can sometimes be blocked by Firewall
software. If you are using a Firewall you will need to allow the "InstallShield
Setup Engine" to have access to the Internet, for just a few moments,
during both installation and uninstallation. If you are connecting to the
Internet through a proxy server, be sure that the proxy's firewall and content
screening will allow connection to the Sylvan server.
4)
During installation you may receive an alert regarding a cookie. This is a
session tracking cookie only and contains neither personal nor tracking content
and should be allowed.
5)
The "Demo" mode of this software may not run properly except when you
are logged into your system as Administrator.
6)
Non-Administrator Users, Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7- If you are
trying to use Sylcount from a Log-In account other than Administrator, you
may have to make adjustments to your systems security settings. You will need
to grant Read, Write, and Execute Permissions to the /Program Files/Sylvan/ScIVGold
folder for the User(s) or Group(s) that you want to be able to run Sylcount. Sylvan
Software does not offer advice or support regarding changing and setting your
system's security settings. However, there are several excellent books available
from Microsoft Press, that can guide you through the process. Product
Authorization Notes :::::::::::::::
