With windows 7 final you should not have to do any of the steps listed here it works as normal.

If you are getting an error what is it?

Hi
I am having a lot of trouble in getting magicJack to work on Win 7. I have tried all the above steps but nothing seems to be working. When I run the magicJack from the shortcut it is still saying No network connection (error 3 and later error 9). Can someone please help me out with this?

I finally got Magic Jack working in Win7 by copying my entire working MJack folder in
my Windows XP OS (“c:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\mjusbsp”)
onto a USB Memory Stick along with the “magicJack” Icon (shortcut) also that was on
my Desktop from the installation from long ago, then removed the memory stick, placed
it into my new Win7 Toshiba Laptop and proceeded to first copy that “mjusbsp” folder into
“c:\Users\\appdata\roaming\” as this forum had so nicely dictated (having a
little trouble getting “appdata” to show, having first to type it into the pathline in
the top of the Windows Exploring to get it to show), and then now seeing the “roaming”
folder, I was able to complete the copy of the Windows XP “mjusbsp” folder into there,
thankfully its final destination!
Now the part I want the forum to know about is my use of the Windows XP working “magicJack
Shorcut Icon” that in when I copied it to the Desktop in my Windows 7 OS, and when I went
into the properties of that icon to edit the new working directory pathlines, I was amazed
that they were already “magically” altered, leaving me only to yet have to finally try the
double-click with it and to find that somehow this all had thankfully all worked! I was even
surprised that the Icon even held its shapely figure!
Now even though I had this all working, I dabbled in their website further to find that on
their support area there is a Windows 7 upgrade that I further tried but it ended up giving
me “this is not a valid win32 installation” error message of sorts ……. so who needs them
anyway ……… we got US! HA! Thanks Peeps! Hope I maybe added a little more ease to
everybody’s upcoming Win7 Woes! HA
I am running 64-bit Win7, so perhaps that is why that MJack website customer support Upgrade
for Win7 did not work for me? Thankfully I had you guys to help me prevail!

i know how to fix your magic jack if you have the new windows 7. ive spend like 7 hours until i fixed the problem.
if you plugg your magicjack and the downloading screen appears and suddently disapears or if you connect with the new updates of windows 7 and just gets stuck with the loading screen this process might help you…..
1)first make a copy of contacts, open the phone drive and be shure you can see hidden files, then open MagicJack file, then you will see a file called Addresbook and make a copy and place in safe place so you can put back at the end….
2)then you have to format the MJ, right clic on the MJ drive thats called phone, then select format when new window appear select FAT,alocation default, label=PHONE if it is like that dont change, quick format and start….this will delete your contacts in the MJ drive but you already made a copy out side that drive see part 1!!!!
3)after formated you need to download the 2 updates from magic jack, first the windows vista and then the windows seven(the MJ must be plugged in when updating)
4) the last part, if your MJ wont start pleace go to MY document, or where your files are, pic, vids, music….
and the option to see hidden files must be on so you can see the APPDATA file, access tha file, then open roaming, then mjusbp and you must see the file ug00000, open it and run with the MJ plugged setup….and voala you must wait and the MJ must pass to the dial pad so you register with your data and ready to call….hope this helps cause ive spend 7 hours to find the solution!!!!
and be shure to make a sortcut to your desktop of the setup cause is the only way it works……
