I use Mac at home and Windows at my office. I just loaded Windows on my MacBook for the sole purpose of using ForScan. If I had to choose one OS, it would be Windows for sure.

Ha...that was entertaining. Sorry about the confusion. Yeah, I am a grown man with only Mac products. I guess I'm a sheep. Oh well...thanks for the link to that youtube video. I will check it out and give it a shot. I appreciate all of the help.
Any luck with ForScan yet?

The offer still stands if you need help. The video link is the easiest tutorial that I have found on "YouTube University". I used his method for my Explorer ST and my neighbors Ford Edge ST . Good Luck!

What did you disable or enable? Glad it worked out for you.

Is bambi mode fog and high beams at the same time? If yes, I did that as well.
I did not allow Nav while driving. I read somewhere that creates other issues.
Double honk - first thing to go.
If you stumble on the ability to enable Sport Mode dash on every mode please post here. Many members, myself included would enable that in a heart beat. It is the best looking dash by a landslide.

If I remember right Nav wile Driving simply ells it you're in a country where that's legal, which messes up other location functions.

That is Correct. It sets it to England basically. Some images in Nav are different, and disables E911, and all SiriusXM location based features.

I probably read it on this forum on a post that either one of you may have written. Thanks ahead of time.

Probably me. When my wife got cut off at 45Mph and totaled her 15 Expedition, and was dazed, E911 used her phone connected by BT that was in the floor now, to call 911. She ended up being OK, and completely fine, just sore for a few weeks, but it was then I realized I will NEVER have that feature disabled. It is GOOD!

Glad she's okay.. I remember reading that now that is probably why I didn't mess with it on the ST. I belong to so many forums I can't remember which forum I read what on. Lol

I have been trying to put in my activation code in Forscan. Not sure I'm doing it right. I reviewed the video and got the Forscan program and a registered user on the Forscan fourm. When I click on the license agreement or activation code it stops me there. How did other Forscan users receive their activation code?

Haven't seen the "Enabled Use Fog Lamps as Cornering Lamps" option before in the forscan lists.
