(frequently asked questions)


Installation

JollyPaintbook evaluation version can be downloaded from our download page. If you have not already downloaded the evaluation version then do so by clicking here. Please note that if you already have an evaluation version installed then you should NOT install another copy on your machine. If you do so, you will automatically expire the evaluation period and will not be able to use the software

Once the installation program has been downloaded, you should run it from wherever you downloaded it. Use Windows Explorer to find the program on your machine

You may be advised to restart your machine at the end of the installation. Please do not ignore this! On some operating systems important system files are only installed AFTER a reboot as they cannot be installed while Windows is running. You will experience problems if you do not reboot your machine when advised to do so

If you purchased the full version of JollyPaintbook then there are no additional files to download or install. Click here for more info on activating the registered version


Running

JollyPaintbook is run via the Desktop shortcut, Quicklaunch shortcut or Start menu shortcut. The JollyPaintbook Configuration program is available via the Start menu shortcut. The Start menu shortcuts are installed into the Start > Programs > Jollyware > JollyPaintbook program group (unless you specified a different location during installation)

If you experience any program errors while running JollyPaintbook then please let us know and we will advise you as best we can. You can contact us via email by clicking here


Registration

JollyPaintbook is shareware. This means that you are allowed to run the program for evaluation purposes to see if you would like to buy it. When you install JollyPaintbook, you must agree to our End User License Agreement (EULA) which dictates that you will abide by the conditions of the agreement. Under these conditions, you are only allowed to install and run the program for evaluation purposes. If you decide not to buy the product after the evaluation period has finished, you should uninstall JollyPaintbook from your system

If you purchase JollyPaintbook you will be sent an email from us containing a set of activation codes. These codes identify you as a customer (for support purposes) and unlock the registered version of the product. When you receive this email, you should copy the activation code section of the mail (see picture below) and paste it into the registration screen of the Configuration Program:

 

Unlocking JollyPaintbook

The screenshot to the left shows the Product Registration screen. You will need to copy your information from your registration email and paste it into the large white box

When you then click the blue OK button your information will be verified


NOTE: The Product Registration screen is activated by clicking on the pink Unlock button in the Configuration program. Once you have registered and unlocked JollyPaintbook, this button will no longer appear


 

Once you have pasted this information into the large white area, click the blue OK button and the information will be verified. Assuming you have pasted the correct information into the white area then you will be informed that the registration has been successful. If you receive a message stating that the information could not be verified then please try again making sure that you copy all of the activation code section of the email into the white area. If you are unable to activate your product then please mail us by clicking here. You must include your order number and a clear description of your problem in your email


Configuration

The Configuration program can be launched from the Windows Start menu. It allows you to specify a number of options for the software


 

The Configuration program window allows you to specify which color palette will be available when using the program. We recommend using the Basic palette for young children as it presents a small number of colors which is a lot less confusing! If you select the Advanced palette then JollyPaintbook will decide on the best palette to use according to your display settings. To ensure that the maximum number of colors will be available you should set your display setting to True Color. To change your display settings you simply right-click on your desktop, choose Properties and select the Settings page
