And I have spent far too much money to be going through this problem. This is so frustrating for me because Dragon is a necessity not a luxury. all I know is I have Dragon premium 13 and Excel 2013 and cannot get my Dragon to work within Excel. I'm now stuck in a loop - give Windows permission followed by this dialog.ĭON'T KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT COMPUTING TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE MY PROBLEM EITHER OR HOW TO OPEN A THREAD ETC. This is when the 'Enter your serial number' dialog returns. Windows says it needs my permission to continue, so I tell it to go ahead. Next, I'm asked to enter my new serial number. Then I get a dialog asking if I want to activate automatically or manually. The desktop activation was succesful, but when I try to activate it on the laptop, the Activation window with my serial number keeps popping up.įirst, I get the dialog that asks if I want to activate now or later, plus the number of uses I have left without activating. Hi! I purchased Dragon NaturallySpeaking Premium 11.5 this week, and so far, I love it! (In fact, I love it so much, I got my employer to buy me a license for Professional for my work computer!) I understand that the software license is per user, and I would like to use it on my desktop computer (Win 7 32-bit) and my laptop (Win Vista Blech). For every minute I waste negotiating with the Dictation Box and other idiosyncrasies built in Version 13, I feel like cursing these sadists!

But even in terms of accuracy, Version 13 is in no way an improvement on the previous version. So you're condemned to waste your time by formatting the text again within the destination product. You can't use bullets or use the tab key there.

But the Dictation Box doesn't allow formatting the text either. Unlike Versions 12 and prior, Version 13 doesn't allow direct dictation in products like OneNote and requires inputting in a Dictation Box and then transferring the text to OneNote. I hope someone will come up with an alternative and bust their balls hard enough to make them feel the mental torture they have been inflicting on their customers for quite long. Looks like the DNS management are greedy people, out to make most of their monopoly hold on the dictation software products. Version 13 is literally a downgrade on the previous versions.
