   If there is not enough space on your hard disk, the setup program will display a message asking you to free up disk space and telling you how much space should be freed. You can obtain this information beforehand by clicking on the Space button in the Custom Setup dialog. In most cases, you will need 150 MB (including 35 MB in the Temp folder) for the Six Languages edition and 70 MB (including 20 MB in the Temp folder) for the English-Russian edition.

2. Installing Lingvo 11 on your local computer

ABBYY Lingvo 11 Six Languages includes all the features of ABBYY Lingvo 11 English-Russian. 

To install ABBYY Lingvo 11 on your computer:

1. Insert the CD-ROM disk labelled Disk 1/2 into the CD-ROM drive. The setup program will run automatically.
2. Insert the Installation Floppy Disk in the floppy drive and follow the instructions of the setup program.

Note:

1. You can only install ABBYY Lingvo 11 from the original media.
2. If the setup program does not run automatically, you can install ABBYY Lingvo manually. Go to Start>Settings>Control Panel and double-clicking the Add or Remove Programs icon.
3. If you install the program without using the Installation Floppy Disk (if, for example, your computer has no 3.5" drive), you will be prompted to activate the program when you first run ABBYY Lingvo. 

You can select either full or custom installation:

• Full: All system components and dictionaries are installed.
• Custom: You can select the components and dictionaries to be installed. You may also install/remove components later. By default, all the dictionaries are selected. You can save disk space by choosing not to install some of the dictionaries. You can always install the required dictionaries later. Specify whether you wish to install the sound files, to install ABBYY Lingvo on your Pocket PC device, Palm device or smartphone, or to install ABBYY Lingvo Tutor.

In the Custom Setup dialog box, click Advanced and select one of the two options:

• Each user of this computer uses his/her own bookshelf, or
• All users of this computer use the same bookshelf.

Note: To be able to save personalized settings in Windows 98/Me, go to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Passwords>User Profile and enable "User can customize their preferences and desktop settings. Windows switches to your personal settings whenever you log in".

3. How is activation carried out?

Activation takes very little time and is carried out with the help of an Activation Wizard that is built into the program. The Activation Wizard has a friendly interface and is used for sending the necessary activation information to ABBYY. The same wizard is used for entering the Activation Code you receive from ABBYY during activation.  

Activation information is sent as a code (Installation ID) which is generated on the basis of information about the computer on which the program is being installed. No personal information about the user or computer is used for generating this code and this code cannot be used for identifying the user.

Important! You must have administrator's rights in order to be able to activate ABBYY Lingvo 11 on your computer.

• Via the Internet (recommended)
  Activation is carried out automatically and takes only a few seconds. An Internet connection is required for this type of activation.
• By e-mail
  The user needs to send an e-mail message generated by the program and containing information required for activation. To ensure a quick reply from the mail robot, do not alter the information in the message body or Subject field.
• Other
  An Activation Code can also be obtained form the ABBYY Registration and Activation Service. An Activation Code contains 96 characters and may take some time to dictate over the telephone.

In the case of activation via the Internet, the whole process is carried out automatically. In the case of activation e-mail, the user needs to enter the Activation Code received from ABBYY in the corresponding fields of the Activation Wizard.

Attention! 
Before you start activation, insert disk #1 (labelled Disk 1/2)  into the CD-ROM drive.

Once the activation is complete, the program can be used on the current computer without any restrictions. 

ABBYY Lingvo 11 can be reinstalled on one and the same computer an unlimited number of times without reactivation. However, if you make major upgrades, format your hard drive, or reinstall the operating system, an additional activation may be required.

8. Installing dictionaries on memory cards

ABBYY Lingvo 11 Pocket PC dictionaries can be stored either in the main memory or on memory cards.

To install dictionaries on a memory card, do one of the following:

• Run the PDA Setup Manager on your desktop PC and specify a memory card as the destination folder;
• On the memory card, create a folder and name it Program Files (unless such folder already exists). In this folder, create a folder named ABBYY Lingvo. In the ABBYY Lingvo folder, create a folder named Dic and copy the desired dictionaries into this folder by means of a Card Reader device or by using third-party applications.  (The full path to the folder will be as follows: \SD Card\Program Files\ABBYY Lingvo\Dic.)

We recommend closing ABBYY Lingvo 11 Pocket PC before plugging or unplugging memory cards with dictionaries. If you do not wish to close down the program while plugging/unplugging the memory card, you will need to open the Dictionaries dialog box (Tools>Options...) to make the dictionaries on the card available to the program.

Important! When storing dictionaries on more than one memory card, the Repair feature of the PDA Setup Manager may function incorrectly.

9. Using the "Repair" function of the PDA Setup Manager when working with memory cards

1. If you store some of your dictionaries on an external memory card, you have to connect this card before using the Repair function. ABBYY Lingvo 11 will display an error message each time it cannot copy a dictionary that is to be stored on an external memory card.
2. If you have stored your dictionaries on several memory cards, the Repair function may work incorrectly trying to place on one connected memory card all the dictionaries which are to be stored on memory cards. If the card runs short of memory, ABBYY Lingvo 11 will display an error message warning you that some dictionaries cannot be copied.

10. Placing the ABBYY Lingvo 11 Pocket PC icon in the Start menu

When installing ABBYY Lingvo 11 Pocket PC under some localized operating systems, the setup program may identify your start menu folder incorrectly. In this case, the setup program may place the ABBYY Lingvo 11 icon in the standard Start menu folder used by English-language operating systems (Windows\Start Menu).

If the setup program has not placed the ABBYY Lingvo 11 Pocket PC icon into your Start menu, try rebooting your Pocket PC. If this does not remedy the situation, copy ABBYY Lingvo.lnk from Windows\Start Menu\Programs into the folder that is used as the Start menu folder in your localized version of the operating system (e.g. \Windows\Стартовое Меню\Программы). Now you can launch ABBYY Lingvo 11 in the usual way by selecting ABBYY Lingvo in Start>Programs.

11. Essential dictionaries

The Essential dictionaries are abridged versions of the corresponding Universal dictionaries. They provide only the most common and frequent translations.

12. Translating words and phrases from Microsoft Internet Explorer (for Pocket PC/ Pocket PC 2002) and Microsoft Reader

Copying text to the clipboard from Microsoft Internet Explorer (for Pocket PC/ Pocket PC 2002) and Microsoft Reader has certain peculiarities which make on-the-fly translation by pressing a hardware button impossible.

To translate words and phrases from these programs, copy the text to the Clipboard via the shortcut menu, launch ABBYY Lingvo, and select the Translate Clipboard command on the Tools menu.

13. Fonts and morphology in user dictionaries

To view some user dictionaries created by independent lexicographers you may have to install special fonts (such as Arial Unicode MS) and specify these fonts in Tools>Options>Fonts.

If the source and target languages of a user dictionary are supported by the system, (i.e. the corresponding language files are supplied with ABBYY Lingvo 11 Six Languages), you can install morphology support for these languages when installing the program. If the source or target language of a user dictionary is not supported by ABBYY Lingvo 11 Six Languages, you need to add morphology support for such languages manually. To be able to look up words in any grammatical form in such user dictionaries, do the following:

1. Copy the *.amd and *.amm morphology files for the language concerned from the ABBYY Lingvo CD-ROM (Disk2/2>PDA tools>Pocket PC Morphology) into the ABBYY Lingvo folder on your desktop PC (Program Files>ABBYY Lingvo 11>LingvoCE>Dictionaries);
2. Run the PDA Setup Manager on your desktop PC (Start>Programs>ABBYY Lingvo 11>PDA Setup Manager>Pocket PC, Smartphone (Windows Mobile®)). The language of the copied morphology dictionary will be added to the list Morphology dictionaries for translating words typed in any grammatical form;
3. Select the added language and click Next.

14. Using a hardware button to launch Lingvo

If Lingvo fails to launch or translate words from other applications when you press the assigned hardware button on your Pocket PC device, please re-assign the hardware button by going to Options/General in Lingvo and checking Assign Lingvo to the program hardware button. This problem may occur if you have re-assigned some of the hardware buttons via the Settings/Buttons dialog box of the operating system of your Pocket PC.
