[Blind-Computing] Outlook 2013, Jaws, extraneous speech
Using Outlook 2010, Win 7, Jaws 14. Similar to a recent post by someone else, but not the same I don't think. I've always had this and not sure if it is just something we need to deal with or not, but when arrowing down through my mailboxes, sometimes I hear extra stuff. Like now I hear: Inbox, copy Outbox, copy Blind computing, one unread message, copy Drafts, copy The other day instead of hearing copy at the backside of the box, I heard something like paragraph, and other bits. Sometimes it is truncated stuff and sometimes nothing extra is said at all. Perhaps I'm missing something in the screen reading optomization/settings such as view options and such? Is there a step 1, 2, 3 someplace to follow for a clean sweep? I'd made sure screen size is maximized, and also tried Windows key left arrow, and Windows key up arrow as well. Thanks, Brad For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Mike, Excellent suggestions The other thing Tom could do if he didn't want to select another download place is to download it to the default, then when done go there and cut/paste to the folder he wishes. I just went to the NLS site and looked around a bit as I have not done so with Win 7 and IE 10. If you tab or arrow around you can find what you need to. You do need to respond to the info bar with Alt N and then you are golden.

In Internet Explorer 9 / 10 there is the option of having system sounds, as there were in internet explorer 8. These sounds include a sound when a download is complete. By default the system sounds are off. To turn them on: 1. On the tools menu, choose internet options. 2. In the dialog ctrl+tab until you get to the advanced page. 3. In the settings tree view, in the accessiblity group, there's the item play system sounds-off. You can quickly move to this by pressing the letter p. Press spacebar, and the item changes to play system sounds-on. 4. press enter to press the default ok button. Navigating to a default download folder: Using IE9, When you press enter on a download link; You will hear; Notification requires response, Here you would press alt+n, Now if you use your tab key, you would see; Run button, Save button, Cancel button. So, the save button will download the file into the default folder. However, if you wish to change the default download folder, You can press, Ctrl + J, instead of the save button. Now using the tab key move to the, Options link, and press enter. Here you will find a browse button so, press the spacebar on it If you either shift+tab, or tab your way, you will come to a tree-view, Now you can arrow and choose where you want your downloads to go.
