Re: [JAWS-Users] Connectivity to server Outlook 2016

2017-10-20 Thread Humberto Rodriguez
Good advice, nothing to worry about unless it persists; from time to time,
for diverse reasons,  Outlook is not able to connect to a mail servier when
trying to send and receive, something it normally does when opened and
periodically thereafter.

POP3 is Post Office Protocol, wherein you actually download your messages
from the server to your computer.  IMAP is newer, in it you download only
the headers, your message remains at the server.

SMTP or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is what sends your messages out to
your mail server, which in turn forwards to the next server in the chain and
so on to however many are necessary until it reaches the recipient's server,
where it awaits access by te recipient, either Online, with POP3 or with
IMAP.

Regards,

Humberto

Hello Laura.

There are several types of e-mail servers out there, Microsoft Exchange
Server being one. Some just require you to set up a username and password;
others need you to manually set up port numbers, encryption type and so on.
All this stuff clearly has already been done on your system, so it doesn't
sound like there's anything to worry about so long as you are getting
messages on all your accounts. The pop3 (or is it smtp, I always forget)
servers will are designed so you can connect, grab your messages and then
disconnect. Usually on modern internet connections this all happens really
quickly, but it could take longer if you have a lot of messages or if they
contain large attachments. I don't know the specific messages that appear on
the screen for each connection type, but it just sounds like JAWS is reading
these. If you get an error message on any of your accounts that is
consistently happening over a period of a couple of days, contact your
e-mail provider.

Hello,

 

I'm using Outlook 2016, Jaws 18 & Windows 10 .. 

 

I just noticed today when I open an email account, Jaws is telling me things
about connectivity to my server.  I have several email accounts but Jaws
does not give me the same message on each account.

 

*On one email account, after Jaws told me the name of the email account and
the information of the email message highlighted Jaws said "connectivity to
your server disconnected"; this did not prevent me from sending or receiving
email messages.  The next time I went to this email account, after

said "connectivity to your server trying to connect .. connectivity to

*On a different email account, after Jaws tells me the name of the email

"connectivity to server connected".

 

*On the other email account, I don't get any message regarding connectivity

[JAWS-Users] What bit torrent clients do you all use?

2017-10-20 Thread JM Casey
Hey everyone. Of course we're discussing clients here and not torrent sites
or anything that could be used to spread copyrighted material to the public.
Now that that's out of the way: I'm curious to know what clients you all
might use? I used to use Utorrent, but when I got it going on the Windows 10
machine I found they'd made some really annoying modifications to it, and
I'm not such a fan anymore. I have some suggestions from sighted folks, but
it's sometimes beneficial to know what experiences other screen-reader users
have had as well. Of course I want something that's easily configurable with
private trackers, and where you can easily sort your existant torrents and
so on. Any thoughts?

Re: [JAWS-Users] update progress with win10?

2017-10-20 Thread Joseph Lee
Hi Adam and everyone,
In this case, MS is wrong: up until Version 1703, you'll get a progress bar
when downloading and installing all updates. Starting with Version 1709,
you'll get status messages for individual updates. Also, JAWS needs to
support UIA progress bars and certain events coming from universal apps such
as Settings app in order to tell you what's going on. Unfortunately, from
time to time, Windows ships with broken UIA implementations, including a
case where progress bar values will change along with download/install
status text, which is annoying (fixed in 1709 but it also introduced a bug
of its own). Speaking of NVDA, I am the one who brought you update status
message announcements (ask me offlist if interested).
Cheers,
Joseph

Microsoft Disability Answer Desk is partially correct.
The stable (released to the general public) versions of Windows 10 from
which the update to version 1709 is downloaded show update progress, but
only a general one and not for each update separately, therefore if there
are more than one update available you'll be unable to check individually
the progress of version 1709. Insider builds (those targetted to techies who
want to test Windows beta versions) show progress for each update separately
inside the list item of each update; you can see this info with JAWS by
using the Touch Cursor with Advanced Object Navigation enabled.
In any case, unlike NVDA and Windows Narrator, JAWS is currently unable to
report the progress automatically as it does in traditional (remember that
Settings is actually an Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app), so if using
JAWS you need to check the progress manually, even when Progress Bar
Announcement in JAWS is turned on.
Another alternative is to use the Media Creation Tool to download an ISO
file for the language and architecture you want and then mount and install
the ISO manually. Since the Media Creation Tool is a desktop app, JAWS will
read the download progress correctly. In the installation program the
percentage is said in text instead of a progress bar; no screen reader can
therefore report the change, but you can press INSERT+B or use
JAWS/Invisible Cursor even if you don't have JAWS 2018.

Hope it helps!

Re: [JAWS-Users] update progress with win10?

2017-10-20 Thread Fernando Gregoire
Hi Adrian,
While before the latest update released on October 27 only Windows 10 beta
versions displayed progress for each update separately and this was similar
to Windows 7, the way used to get that information on W7 is not applicable
to Windows 10 for a couple of reasons:
1. Windows 10 have neither the update progress icon on the System Tray or
the Open Windows Update option in the Action Center context menu.
2. In Windows 10 the Windows Update functionality is witting the Settings
app, which is an “Universal” app. Therefore, you can't use JAWS Cursor to
review information.
3. In addition to the need of using Touch Cursor to get to the update
progress information, for some kind of bug, unlike NVDA and even the
Windows Narrator, JAWS does not read the progress information automatically
as it changes, even when Progress Bar Announcement option is turned on.
4. Although this is not a percentage, in Windows 10, unlike 7, you never
know which update related to the total is being downloaded or installed. As
you know, Windows 7 display strings like “Downloading Name of the Update
(update 2 of 9);” those strings, however, are not present in Windows 10.

Another alternative is to use the Media Creation Tool to download an ISO
file for the language and architecture you want and then mount and install
the ISO manually. Since the Media Creation Tool is a desktop app, JAWS will
read the download progress correctly. In the installation program the
percentage is said in text instead of a progress bar; no screen reader can
therefore report the change, but you can press INSERT+B or use
JAWS/Invisible Cursor even if you don't have JAWS 2018.

Hope it helps!

Re: [JAWS-Users] update progress with win10?

   Interesting, I was able to follow the download progress when I used the 
check for updates option in settings using window eyes.   didn't try it 
using jaws 2018 beta 3.

There is no way to let you the progress of downloading until your machine

Hi all,

running jaws2018.

If I go to settings and then update and security.

then check for updates I'm told there is one update which is 1709.

I gather there is no way to tell whether the update is downloading or not?

Spoke to Microsoft accessibility who said there is no way to tell if the
update is being downloaded.

They said the only way to tell is when the machine prompts you to restart.

Wondering if this is correct or if I haven't started the download yet.

Re: [JAWS-Users] update progress with win10?

2017-10-20 Thread Adrian Spratt
Adam, 
I'm using windows 7, and I can confirm that a Windows Update is downloading and 
even get some information on progress, although if more than one update is 
involved, the percentage indication is limited to each item, not the whole set 
of downloads. 
In Win7, I do the following:
JAWS key+F11 for the system tray.
Arrow down to something like "Update is ready" and press enter. (I don't have 
one in my system tray now, so I can't give you the exact wording. However, MS 
is not named.)
Now I press tab until I come across the system tray list in button form. Once 
again, I locate that "Update" item and press enter.
>From here on, I can get JAWS to verbalize update progress by pressing JAWS 
>key+tab. 

I hope I've correctly remembered these steps. I don't know how they translate 
in Win10, but perhaps they give you a push in the right direction.

Sure! he's running Windows and MAC OS on that system. Apple provides a
utility called Boot Camp that makes this possible. in that situation, you
can run JAWS or any other screen reader or any other Windows program when
you boot into Windows.

Yes, although I haven't tried it - I don't run Microsoft Windows on my Mac.

There are two approaches. The first is to use BootCamp, which essentially
installs Windows alongside Mac OS. While the machine is booting, you can use
keystrokes to control which operating system is loaded.

The second approach is to install virtualization software (e.g., VirtualBox
or VMWare) under Mac OS, then run Windows, JAWS etc. within the virtual
environment. This allows you to switch between the two operating systems
without having to reboot the machine.
