[JAWS-Users] Adding a new email to a group list in Outlook 2010

[Mr. Ed]

Hi Jaws Group.

I want to be able to add a  new email client to a group email list. When I
go to the add members tab Jaws announces the keystroke to get there as alt H
M E. So when I hold down the alt + H then press M then E and hit enter
nothing happens. I have tried just pressing alt + H then M then E and
nothing happens. So does anyone know what I am doing wrong with this key
combination of letters using Jaws 18 and Outlook 2010.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Tradeoffs with Abby FineReader from Kurzweil 1000

[Dialup]

I also used Omni Page for many years, but gave up when OP Ultimate was 
released; I found if to be an ultimate failure.


I now use Abbyy and while it's a bit clunky in places, I get very good 
OCR results, particularly with tables, much better than OP as it turns out.

Hello list,

I have Kurzweil 1000 and am considering switching to Abby FineReader
for my desktop OCR needs. I've never really got use to the K1000
commands or interface and a lot of the extras that K1000 offers simply
aren't of interest to me. Included calculator, calendar, database look
up, etc.

Like everyone else on these lists I imagine, my main interest is OCR
accuracy which from my understanding shouldn't be a problem since
K1000 and OpenBook use the FineReader OCR engine anyway.

As a Jaws user, I am also interested to know of any possible issues or
drawbacks/compromises one might encounter when using Abby FineReader
as opposed to K1000.

Between my iPhone with a ScanStand and the Jaws OCR feature I find
myself using or needing a standalone desktop solution less and less,
but for those times I do need one or wish to use for more involved
scans, I'd like to be able to use something where I don't have to
remember a completely different set of other commands and settings
like in K1000.

I am using JFW 18 on both Windows 10 and 7 computers.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scan Disk Results

[Gene Warner]

Hi Dave!

The PE in the name stands for Preinstallation Environment. It is 
basically a minimal version of Windows that can be run from a CD. The 
talking part is provided by a preinstalled copy of the NVDA screen 
reader. With it you can install Windows without needing sighted 
assistance. It can also be used for some recovery options like running 
system restore, or restoring a backup image when Windows won't boot.


You can get them as ISO files here:

http://opopanax.net/download/

Just burn the image to a CD or DVD and you have a bootable talking 
Windows PE disc.


Cheers!

I just tried my autoexec suggestion, it didn't work.

So other than the event viewer, or temporarily putting the system drive
in another computer as a second drive to run chkdsk on, I believe your
best bet is going to be booting from a  talking Windows PE disc, then
running chkdsk on your system drive.

If you need more information about doing this, let me know.

  When Event Viewer opens, click on "Application", then scroll

I tried this but couldn't find winlogon.

Hi Mike!
That depends on which drive you are scanning. If it's any drive other
than the system drive, you can redirect the output to a file from the
command line, like this.

chkdsk d: /f>results.txt

(the /f parameter tells check disk to fix any errors it finds)

If you are trying to scan the system drive, it gets trickier because
chkdsk can't be run while Windows is running because it requires
exclusive access to the hard drive.

You could try creating an autoexec.bat file in your system drive's root
directory with the appropriate chkdsk command in it

The downside of this approach is that while chkdsk is running, there
won't be any screen reader support, so if the system stops for any
reason, you'll need sighted help to determine why.

For this reason, if I needed to do this, I'd more than likely boot into
a talking Windows PE and use that to do the chkdsk on the system drive.

Hi All iTunes Users,



iTunes is driving me crazy.  I am trying to add new content to my iTunes
library so that I can make a Play List and then put that Play List on my
iPhone.  I am using the latest version of iTunes and JAWS18 on a Windows7
machine.  I find that sometimes using Tab or Control+Tab or F6 all do the
same thing for navigating, and other times they do not.  When I land on most
buttons, JAWS announces to use the Space Bar to select, but I find that if
it is going to let me select it, I will have to use the Enter key.



I thought that when you selected Add to Library from the File Menu iTunes
would go out and find any new content, i.e. MP3's on your hard drive and add
them to the iTunes folder, and to the iTunes library.  This is not
happening.  I've even tried pasting the new MP3 files in the iTunes folder
and then going through what I think are the steps for adding them to the
iTunes library, and they still do not show up.  I am selecting Add to
Library, and then in the dialog box that pops up I am thinking that I am
selecting one of the items in the list, and I do hear the iTunes sound that
usually indicates it is finished.



Can anyone help me with this?



Annette

[JAWS-Users] Problem With Stubborn Messages Staying In Outlook Drafts Folder Solved

[Tom Behler]

Hello.

 

It looks like I have solved my problem with stubborn messages remaining in
my Outlook 2016 drafts folder.

 

I went back onto the g-mail web site, and accessed my account there.

 

The HTML view does work much better than the standard view with Jaws.

 

Anyway, I found the drafts folder again, and accessed the discard drafts
option.  With some sighted assistance, I discovered that you have to
individually check each drafts message you wish to delete.  I had not done
that yesterday, because I didn't realize it was needed.

 

Once I checked each individual message, I was able to end the operation, and
the messages were gone.  They did not re-appear in my Outlook drafts folder.

 

I hope this helps others who experience the same issue.

 

Thanks to the list members who helped me sort this out.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scan Disk Results

[Gene Warner]

I just tried my autoexec suggestion, it didn't work.

So other than the event viewer, or temporarily putting the system drive 
in another computer as a second drive to run chkdsk on, I believe your 
best bet is going to be booting from a  talking Windows PE disc, then 
running chkdsk on your system drive.


If you need more information about doing this, let me know.

Cheers!

Hi Mike!
That depends on which drive you are scanning. If it's any drive other
than the system drive, you can redirect the output to a file from the
command line, like this.

chkdsk d: /f>results.txt

(the /f parameter tells check disk to fix any errors it finds)

If you are trying to scan the system drive, it gets trickier because
chkdsk can't be run while Windows is running because it requires
exclusive access to the hard drive.

You could try creating an autoexec.bat file in your system drive's root
directory with the appropriate chkdsk command in it

The downside of this approach is that while chkdsk is running, there
won't be any screen reader support, so if the system stops for any
reason, you'll need sighted help to determine why.

For this reason, if I needed to do this, I'd more than likely boot into
a talking Windows PE and use that to do the chkdsk on the system drive.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Accessing iTunes with JAWS18

Hi Annette,
Give these steps a try, they work for me.
I wrote them yesterday, and as far as creating playlists, you should be able
to do that from your phone as well.

These instructions were written for ITunes version 12.5.4.42, using Jaws
version 16.

Once ITunes has been configured to automatically sync with your phone when
connected , follow these steps to move music or ring tones to your phone:
Music:
NOTE: Make sure that the files you select are not .wav format, While the
IPhone will play these files, they are far too large to transfer to the
phone since they will rapidly use up available space on the phone.
.mp3 would be a better choice,.

1. Select individual songs or an album folder, and copy it to the clipboard.
2. Press enter on your user folder name shortcut on the Desktop.
3. Once in your user folder, locate your Music folder and press enter.
4. From within your Music folder, press the letter I to move to the ITunes
folder, then press enter to open it.
5. Press the letter I again to locate the ITunes Media folder, then press
enter to open it.
6. The first folder in this list is:
Automatically Add to ITunes,
 so press the spacebar to select the folder, then press enter to open it.
7. Paste your selections from the clipboard here.
Note: If pasting individual files, I would  make sure that none of the file
names are the same or have like track numbers in the file name.
8. Once you have pasted your files here you can close the folder with Alt
F4.
9. Now, from the Desktop press enter on the ITunes shortcut, to open the
ITunes program.
10. Once ITunes has loaded, plug your phone into your computer, and syncing
should begin.
When syncing has finished, you should hear a tone.
Now check your Music app on your phone to make sure the songs are there.

The process for moving ring tones to your phone are the same as above,
making sure that the files you are using for ring tones are of the correct
format,(.m4r)  and no longer than 30 seconds in length.
No matter what format your original file is, you will need to convert it to
M4A first.
To convert files to the proper format, do the following:
1. Open Pazera Free Audio Extractor Portable, and press enter on
theAudioExtractor.exe.
2. Next, once the program has opened, press the Alt key, and right arrow to
the File List menu, then arrow to "Add files to list", and press enter.
3. This will place you in a standard "Open", dialogue where you can browse
for your files.
4. Once you have found your file, or files, then tab to the "OPEN" button
and spacebar it.
5.  Now, you will be in a dialogue for choosing your output format, and your
file or files should be selected, so tab once to choose the format.
6. Arrow to m4a, then  press the Alt key to open the menus, and select
"convert checked files", from the file menu, and press enter.
The conversion process will start, and Jaws should announce the progress.
7.  When conversion has completed, you can close the program with Alt F4.
8. Go to the folder where your original file is located and you should find
your converted file or files.
9. Once you have located your files, you will need to change the file
extension, by doing the following:
A. With the file name highlighted, press the F2 key to rename the file.
B. Now, move to the end of the file name, and delete the "A", from the end
of the file extension, and replace it with the letter "R" and press enter to
close the dialogue.
Do this for each file you want to use.
10. Finally, use the steps above for moving music to your phone to move your
ring tones.


HTH,
Rick Justice

happening.  I've even tried pasting the new MP3 files in the iTunes folder
and then going through what I think are the steps for adding them to the
iTunes library, and they still do not show up.  I am selecting Add to

usually indicates it is finished.



Can anyone help me with this?

happening.  I've even tried pasting the new MP3 files in the iTunes folder
and then going through what I think are the steps for adding them to the
iTunes library, and they still do not show up.  I am selecting Add to
Library, and then in the dialog box that pops up I am thinking that I am
selecting one of the items in the list, and I do hear the iTunes sound that
usually indicates it is finished.  

 

Can anyone help me with this?

If you used Windows Explorer to delete the favorites, they'll be in the
recycle bin.

But if you delete them from within Internet Explorer, they are simply
deleted and are not moved to the recycle bin as Windows Explorer does.

That depends on which drive you are scanning. If it's any drive other
than the system drive, you can redirect the output to a file from the
command line, like this.

chkdsk d: /f>results.txt

(the /f parameter tells check disk to fix any errors it finds)

If you are trying to scan the system drive, it gets trickier because
chkdsk can't be run while Windows is running because it requires
exclusive access to the hard drive.

You could try creating an autoexec.bat file in your system drive's root
directory with the appropriate chkdsk command in it

The downside of this approach is that while chkdsk is running, there
won't be any screen reader support, so if the system stops for any

For this reason, if I needed to do this, I'd more than likely boot into

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scan Disk Results

[Gene Warner]

You are probably right about autoexec.bat as I've never tried what I 
suggested. In which case booting into a Windows PE is probably the only 
way to capture the chkdsk result of a system drive.


That is, other than removing the drive and installing it as a second 
drive in another system.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Accessing iTunes with JAWS18

Hi Annette,
Give these steps a try, they work for me.
I wrote them yesterday, and as far as creating playlists, you should be able
to do that from your phone as well.

These instructions were written for ITunes version 12.5.4.42, using Jaws
version 16.

Once ITunes has been configured to automatically sync with your phone when
connected , follow these steps to move music or ring tones to your phone:
Music:
NOTE: Make sure that the files you select are not .wav format, While the
IPhone will play these files, they are far too large to transfer to the
phone since they will rapidly use up available space on the phone.
.mp3 would be a better choice,.

1. Select individual songs or an album folder, and copy it to the clipboard.
2. Press enter on your user folder name shortcut on the Desktop.
3. Once in your user folder, locate your Music folder and press enter.
4. From within your Music folder, press the letter I to move to the ITunes
folder, then press enter to open it.
5. Press the letter I again to locate the ITunes Media folder, then press
enter to open it.
6. The first folder in this list is:
Automatically Add to ITunes,
 so press the spacebar to select the folder, then press enter to open it.
7. Paste your selections from the clipboard here.
Note: If pasting individual files, I would  make sure that none of the file
names are the same or have like track numbers in the file name.
8. Once you have pasted your files here you can close the folder with Alt
F4.
9. Now, from the Desktop press enter on the ITunes shortcut, to open the
ITunes program.
10. Once ITunes has loaded, plug your phone into your computer, and syncing
should begin.
When syncing has finished, you should hear a tone.
Now check your Music app on your phone to make sure the songs are there.

The process for moving ring tones to your phone are the same as above,
making sure that the files you are using for ring tones are of the correct
format,(.m4r)  and no longer than 30 seconds in length.
No matter what format your original file is, you will need to convert it to
M4A first.
To convert files to the proper format, do the following:
1. Open Pazera Free Audio Extractor Portable, and press enter on
theAudioExtractor.exe.
2. Next, once the program has opened, press the Alt key, and right arrow to
the File List menu, then arrow to "Add files to list", and press enter.
3. This will place you in a standard "Open", dialogue where you can browse
for your files.
4. Once you have found your file, or files, then tab to the "OPEN" button
and spacebar it.
5.  Now, you will be in a dialogue for choosing your output format, and your
file or files should be selected, so tab once to choose the format.
6. Arrow to m4a, then  press the Alt key to open the menus, and select
"convert checked files", from the file menu, and press enter.
The conversion process will start, and Jaws should announce the progress.
7.  When conversion has completed, you can close the program with Alt F4.
8. Go to the folder where your original file is located and you should find
your converted file or files.
9. Once you have located your files, you will need to change the file
extension, by doing the following:
A. With the file name highlighted, press the F2 key to rename the file.
B. Now, move to the end of the file name, and delete the "A", from the end
of the file extension, and replace it with the letter "R" and press enter to
close the dialogue.
Do this for each file you want to use.
10. Finally, use the steps above for moving music to your phone to move your
ring tones.


HTH,
Rick Justice

Tomorrow's another day, another way!
and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved!

Tom,
Why don't you just call the Microsoft Disability Line.

>From Drafts Folder In Outlook 2016

Cristobal:

I found where to switch my g-mail account to basic HTML view on the g-mail
web site, and discovered that the folders are much easier to navigate this
way.

However, I went into my drafts folder, and discarded all drafts;  but the
drafts still seem to be stuck in my Outlook 2016 drafts folder.

This now seems like an Outlook problem, and I'm not sure how to solve it
from here, since working within my g-mail account itself did not seem to
correct things.

If you find the standard  view for Gmail  too difficult  to navigate, you
can  always switch to the basic  HTML page and  access the drafts folder
from there.

Mr.  Ed:

I tried the Shift delete key method several times for each of the three
e-mails that are now permanently stuck in my Outlook 2016 drafts folder, and
the messages keep re-appearing.

In other words, they just don't go away!

I have also tried going to the gmail web site, and deleting the messages
from my personal g-mail account.  But, I find the web site itself difficult
to navigate, and I have difficulty consistently getting to where I need to
go to delete those messages.

I guess my only option at this point would be to disconnect from the
internet, and see what happens from there.  That just doesn't seem like it
should be necessary, though!

Hi Tom,
Have you tried doing a shift + delete key. Then you should get a message box
that comes up asking you if you want to permanently delete the message.
Click yes and it should be gone.

This  works when I've got a message  stuck  in the  outgoing folder.
If you're on wifi, just disable  the wireless on your machine and if you're
hard  wired, depending  on what system you're running, go into  adaptor
settings  or network (maybe someone  else can give you  specific
instructions) and  disable the connection. Then go  back and try  to  delete
the messages and  hopefully after they're gone, go  back  and  enable  your
internet.

How exactly can I do this without interrupting internet service for the rest
of the household?

Am not sure why Outlook refuses to permanently delete these messages.

The problem only occurs with the drafts folder.

Try  disabling your  wi-fy/internet connection  and then delete.

My g-mail account is configured as imap.

I do this because it allows me to more easily check e-mail with my laptop
when traveling.

Do you have your account configured as imap or  pop3? That would  make a
difference. If pop3, then  it's something to do on your  particular set up.

Good Morning David, Rick, or Bob,

If a list member goes no mail, can they still post to the list?  No reason 
for this query, just curious.  Thanks much.
Take care.
