- TalkWorks PRO 3.0 Symantec Corporation
- Release Notes July 1999
- ==============================================================
-
- The following information reflects recent changes made to the
- product. We recommend you review this document before you
- install and use TalkWorks.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- INSTALLATION NOTES
- ==============================================================
-
- This section describes known issues that you may encounter
- when installing TalkWorks.
-
- Installing TalkWorks with NAV 5.0 Auto-Protect enabled:
- ======================================================
- The "scan all files" option enabled in NAV 5.0's Auto-Protect
- feature may hinder the complete installation of
- WinFax/TalkWorks. To ensure a complete install, simply change
- the option to scan "Program files" only.
-
-
- Upgrading from WinFax PRO 8.x to TalkWorks PRO 3.0
- ==================================================
- When you upgrade from WinFax PRO 8.x to TalkWorks PRO 3.0, you
- will lose your pager settings. Take note of your settings
- before upgrading, then reset them following installation.
-
-
- Upgrading from TalkWorks 2.0 to TalkWorks PRO 3.0
- ==================================================
- If you previously had a multi-level answering system
- (multi-level profile) set up in TalkWorks 2.0, all sub-levels
- (sub-profiles) in that system will be converted to separate
- answering systems during the update migration process.
-
-
-
- ==============================================================
- MESSAGE SHARING ISSUES
- ==============================================================
- To use the Message Sharing feature, we recommend that you have
- the most recent version of DCOM98 installed on your computer.
- This will ensure that all Message Sharing features function
- smoothly. To download the latest version of DCOM98, visit the
- Microsoft Web site at:
- http://www.microsoft.com/Com/resources/downloads.asp
- This is required ONLY if you want to run TalkWorks PRO in
- Message Sharing mode.
-
- When the Message Sharing option is enabled, you must have
- the same date, time, and location settings on both the host and
- the client computers. Additionally, the dial as entered location
- should not be used when configuring the Message Sharing
- host, as this may incorrectly assemble phone numbers sent from
- the Message Sharing client.
-
- When running in Message Sharing mode, you must be running the
- same language versions of your operating system on both the host
- and the client computers.
-
- When running in Message Sharing mode, a mixture of double-byte
- character (DBCS) and single-byte character (SBCS) systems
- may not be used. Both the host and client machines must be
- using the same type of character system.
-
-
- Dial-Up NetWorking in Windows 95
- =================================================================
-
- If you use the Message Sharing feature and you also connect
- to the Internet using your modem (via a dial-up connection), you
- are prompted to connect to the Internet each time you start
- TalkWorks/WinFax.
-
- Quick Fix: When prompted, click Cancel, as you do not need
- to connect to the Internet to use TalkWorks/WinFax.
-
- There are two ways to handle this situation on an ongoing basis:
-
- A You can click Cancel each time this dialog appears (as
- mentioned above). This option is best suited to those who
- connect to the Internet more frequently than they use
- TalkWorks/WinFax, or for those who cannot change their Internet
- connection method because of corporate standards.
-
- B You can change your Internet connection method to the
- network option so that this dialog does not appear when you
- start TalkWorks/WinFax. When you next want to connect to the Internet,
- you must then change your connection method back to the modem
- option.
-
- If you want to use Option B, do the following:
-
- 1 Click the Windows Start button, point to Settings, and then
- click Control Panel.
- 2 Double click "Internet".
- 3 Click the Connection tab.
- 4 Do one of the following:
- - If you have Internet Explorer 4.0 installed: Enable Connect
- To The Internet Using A Local Area Network.
- - If you do not have Internet Explorer 4.0 installed: Disable
- Connect To The Internet As Needed.
- 5 Click Apply.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- CALLER ID SCREEN POP ISSUES
- ==============================================================
- If you have enabled the Caller ID Screen Pop feature, and you
- have your location dialing configuration set as "Dial as Entered",
- or dialing set to "Windows (TAPI) dialing", you must enter the
- Define Location information as instructed on the Caller ID
- Screen Pop dialog.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- MODEM ISSUES
- ==============================================================
-
- Voice Modem Compatibility
- ===========================
- Some modems do not support all the voice features available
- in TalkWorks PRO. In some cases, this problem may be corrected
- by obtaining the latest driver updates from the modem
- manufacturer.
-
- For a list of compatible modems, see the "TalkWorks Recommended
- Modem List" on the Symantec Web site:
-
- In North America -
- http://www.symantec.com/talkworks/tw_modems.html
- Outside of North America -
- http://www.symantec.com
-
-
- PCTel chipset
- =============
- Voice modems with a PCTel chipset are not supported by
- TalkWorks at this time. You can however use these modems for
- faxing.
-
-
- Archtek SmartLink ConferencePal 3334BTV modems
- ==============================================
- These modems may experience problems detecting dial tones when
- attempting to place calls on the TalkWorks PRO Telephone. To
- prevent "No dial tone" errors, start Program Setup, double
- click Telephone, and then disable Wait For Dial Tone Before
- Dialing.
-
-
- IBM MWAVE modems
- ================
- IBM MWAVE modems are not supported by TalkWorks PRO for voice
- functionality. You can however use these modems for faxing.
-
-
- 3Com US Robotics modems
- =======================
- If you install your USR modem in Windows as a "Standard modem",
- Windows will send the wrong TAPI commands to the modem,
- causing errors. To avoid this, install your USR modem using
- the USR-supplied INF file.
-
-
- Remote retrieval in Class 2.0 using 3COM USRobotics modems
- ==========================================================
- When using some 3COM USRobotics modems installed in
- Class 2.0, remote retrieval of faxes might cause the modem to
- hang. To resolve this issue, change the modem to Class 1 in
- Program Setup.
-
-
- PBX Systems
- ===========
- Some PBX (Private Branch Exchange) systems do not support
- the Call Forward Mailbox feature. Please consult your PBX
- system administrator for more information.
-
-
-
- ==============================================================
- MICROSOFT EXCHANGE/OUTLOOK ISSUES
- ==============================================================
-
- Upgrading from WinFax Starter Edition
- =====================================
- If you upgraded to TalkWorks PRO 3.0 from the WinFax Starter
- Edition, when you receive a new email message you may not be
- able to click on any options on that email, and you may get
- an "out of memory" error. If this happens, close the
- message and, on the Outlook Tools menu, click Accounts.
- Then set another email account as the Default.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- LOTUS NOTES/cc:MAIL ISSUES
- ==============================================================
-
- If you install Lotus Notes after installing TalkWorks PRO, you
- must edit your autoexec.bat file to contain the path location
- in which you have installed Lotus Notes.
- For example: "path=%path%;c:notes"
- where "c:" is the installation location
-
- If running Lotus Notes with TalkWorks PRO, your TalkWorks
- email login may fail if you use a login name containing
- double-byte (DBCS) characters.
-
- If running Lotus Notes with TalkWorks PRO, your TalkWorks email
- functionality may fail if Lotus Notes is installed in a
- directory containing double-byte (DBCS) characters, or if your
- Lotus Notes ID contains double-byte characters.
-
- If running cc:Mail with TalkWorks PRO, text entered into the
- body of an email message containing double-byte (DBCS)
- characters may be illegible to the receiver.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- AOL ISSUES
- ==============================================================
-
- If you install TalkWorks PRO and you use AOL 3.0 or AOL 4.0
- Preview Edition in Windows 95, you will experience problems
- using the AOL internal browser.
-
- To resolve this issue, upgrade to AOL 4.0 or use another browser
- (for example Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer) to access
- the Internet.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- WINDOWS NT ISSUES
- ==============================================================
-
- WinFax NT Service answers all calls
- ===================================
- By default, the WinFax NT Service is set to Automatic and
- loads when NT starts. This allows WinFax to answer calls
- before you log into NT. (The WinFax NT Service intercepts
- all calls.) To avoid possible conflicts with Remote Access
- Service and other services that rely on the modem, set the
- WinFax NT Service to Manual or configure Call Discrimination.
-
-
- Receiving calls while logged out of NT
- ======================================
- TalkWorks PRO allows you to receive both voice and fax
- calls without being logged into Windows NT. Note that all
- voice calls received while logged out of NT will be normalized
- when you log into the operating system. The normalization
- process occupies your system until it is complete.
-
-
- Notification and Fax Forwarding Rules
- =====================================
- Notification and Fax Forwarding rules will only be applied
- to new calls after you log into Windows NT.
