Hi Lappy,
Thanks so much for coming up with the fix so quickly. I've done couple of times uninstalling and reinstalling and finally got it to worked. However, everytime I start up LR, it comes up with a popup message "License Key status has changed, LR will now refresh". And I need to rekey the license key again.
Also, there is a Just-In-Time Debugging that keep popping up about 5 times after I key in the license or when I start up the LR. I have to keep clicking 'No' until it disappeared.
Only then only I could run my LR until the next startup. I'm attaching you the screenshots to give you a better picture.
Thanks, Jezze

My LR doesn't work after the upgrade. From Lesson 10 onwards, they are shown in the wrong order like C. B. A. I'm at Lesson 96 now and the sequence is as C, D, B2, A, B1. If I try to run the lesson, it will hang after the first section.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the entire LR 2.0 but the same problem still persist. I'm also using the latest LR content downloaded.
Please help, I'm not able to run LR for few days now. Attached is the screen shot.
Thanks, Jezze

Hey sunshinebaby, I don't know chinese too, but if it's me, I'll just get the simplified cause it will benefit him when he start schooling? I'm thinking of getting the LC too but not too sure if she'll like it. So far, she doesn't sing along to mandarin nursery songs, only the english ones. Don't know why.. Hi nellie, I'm exactly like you, was so busy reading about pregnancy that I thot I have a lot of time to read about baby care after the baby is out. Boy.. was I wrong... hehe... I think what you are doing for your daughter is really great. Keep up the good job! Errrm.. I wouldn't test the baby if I were you, it will put a lot of stress on the child and she might lose interest in LR / LM altogether. Just keep showing her the program, she will let you know she can read when she's ready

So glad to see so many mommies sharing in this thread. It sure is encouraging Yeah, agree not on pressuring our babies. We are just trying to give them a good head start in learning and make learning fun in any possible way. Shen-Li, yeah, I'm one of your blog's followers and keep up the good job. It has helped me to get started on RB training initially. It's great to hear your older son able to read on his own. How you do get him to read on his own? Do you prepare books with just the sentence in one page, and then the picture in the next? Or just get the normal children's book from MPH will do? Sunshinebaby, oh, finally meet a Shichida mommy online, I always wondered what is the diff between Heguru and Shichida? Looks like Heguru also flashes silly things like Japanese cartoons and companies logo. In fact I just saw these last Sat But I guess the purpose is just to flash it fast in large quantity to activate the RB, not so much on the importance of the info? Just my guess. I'm still trying to figure out what each activity does in Heguru as there is no proper guide for parents. So I have to go around digging for more info. Hmmm.. what do you think of the ESP training? I can't help but to think it's a mere guessing activity for my girl although sometimes she gets them right. As for EK, I'm also just starting on it. I download what's available in brillkids forum and add some painters from those I remember from Heguru.Just the name of the painting as the picture comes up. I might try the Doman way later.

Hmmm.. the last time I went to TW to check out the courses, one of the teachers was very nice to show me around the place and gave me a preview of the class. I remembered she told me TW kids are not encouraged to watch TV because if the kids are used to exciting programs on the TV, they may not find TW lesson interesting. I'm not sure how true is that because at that time my DD is already a fan of Little Einstein and Mickey Mouse.
I tried showing her one of the TW lesson and she looked for a while but walked away before the lesson ended. I showed her YBCR and she also didn't respond that well. Maybe what the teacher said is true. But LR works well for her, maybe because it's not really TV but it's from laptop??
My DD is pretty 'notty' in Heguru class because she just can't sit still. Sensei always know her as the most 'active' one. But later I learned that I need to talk to her everyday and explain that she need to sit down and pay attention to the class and join all the activities. I've even tried the 5 min suggestion (from Shichida), where you can talk to the baby the first 5 mins after the child has just fallen asleep. And it worked! She is now paying attention in class more and join in all the activities. Sensei was also very impressed. One of the mommy I met in Heguru who used to send her kid to Shichida also told me the 5 min suggestion worked very well on her kids.
Oh yeah, she doesn't like words flash either. But is ok if I flash the word and then the picture.

Hi there, Since there are not takers yet, I'm starting this topic. I'm Jezze Yong and staying in Puchong, Selangor. I'm a working mom with a 23 months old DD. My DD started LR and LM about 2 months ago and she's also attending Heguru classes in KL for about 4 months now. I have to say the programs are really good and I could see that she enjoys them. Sometimes she will surprise me by saying aloud a word or two flashed on the screen. Or name an object that she sees although I've only shown her a few times on flash cards. And she loves to be read storybooks (lots and lots of them) before going to sleep. Would love to meet up mommies (or daddies) who are into similar early education programs to share experiences and exchange ideas.

BrillKids Software / Tech Support / LR crashes after 150 words in a playlist
|

Hi there,
I created about 200 words and put them into a playlist. It's to flash about 200 pictures randomly to my DD at one go. But after about 150 objects, the LR crashes. I was making about 140+ before that and LR was doing ok. It's only when it exceeds 150. Below is the error dump. Is there a limit to the number of words to show per playlist?
Thanks, Jezze
