Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser

By David Moore

This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome.

I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both
work the same in Chrome.

Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build.

I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome.

There should be a shortcut on your desktop.

Section One:

Launching Chrome:

One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and
type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say
Chrome.

However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut
icon on your desktop.

So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to
open Chrome.

The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google
Chrome icon on your desktop.

The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the
window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get
undesirable results.

Section Two:

Bringing up a web site.

Press CTRL+L or Alt+D

and type the following:

www.freedomscientific.com

The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly.

All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo
box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome.

Section Three:

The Virticle Chrome menu:

I will press the Alt key.

The Chrome menu is open.

This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down
arrow through.

I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu.

New Tab, CTRL+T.

You can press that command right from the web site you are on.

New Window, CTRL+N

You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming
here.

New incognito Window.

History sub menu.

I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu!

History, CTRL+H

So, there is a key command for reading your history.

You can read a few sites you were on right here.

I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu.

Downloads, CTRL+J

There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with
Chrome.

Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu.

I will press right arrow, to open this.

I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D

That command will bookmark the page you are reading.

Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B

That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to
see. I do not want that.

Here is the important one.

manage bookmarks

The command is, CTRL+Shift+O

In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you
have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can
download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome.

On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and
a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in
Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to
your computer, so you can back them up.

That is all for manage bookmarks.

Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings.

press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE,
and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their
corresponding folders.

Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down.

Very important!

Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices
I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks.
If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these
choices.

Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key
commands, so you do not

2018-02-18 Thread Judy Jones
Another service was Myfax that we had for years, and I finally gave it up,
as we got to a point where we weren't using it that much.   It is a great
service for a small business or residence, but if you have to do a lot of
faxing, Myfax would charge you if you went over their limit.  I think it was
over 50 faxes in a given time frame, but can't remember for sure.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Two Questions--update message and hot key

2018-02-18 Thread JM Casey
Hey.

I don't think there is a windows hotkey that will open up your drive as is.
You could create one yourself by making a desktop shortcut for the drive. If
you access the context menu for the drive, you should be able to do this.

A quick way of accessing the drive is to use windows key + r to open the run
dialog box, and then type in the drive letter followed by a colon. So, if
your USB drive is h, you would type:
Windows key + r
H:
Then hit enter.

As to your first questionyou should be able to review this popup in
actions centre, with windows key + a. From there, you can access the
notification. You can also go directly to windows update. Hit the windows
key (by itself this time). Type in "windows update". When you hit down
arrow, you will see both "windows update settings" and "check for updates".

Re: [JAWS-Users] using Xfinity while traveling

Sure they're accessible; they are just Xfinity open networks which you find 
through your wireless network connections.


Be advised, don't use them to conduct any transactions on financial sites or 
sites where you need to log-in with a password you don't want people to know 
about, unless you have a VPN installed on your computer.  These "hot spots" 
are just completely open-access, so anybody nearby can "sniff" the 
information you send back and forth through this connection.

You don't even have to use iTunes for that. Voice Dream can receive

like File Browser to act as an intermediary between your phone and

If I remember correctly, they are for iTunes 12.1, or close to that.
When he did these tutorials, you could still simply press CTRL+9 to listen
to thousands of radio stations. That is gone in iTunes 12.7. It probably 
has


changed, since he did them. You cannot use iTunes 12.7 to download media 
to


your iPhone anymore either, I believe. I am not sure how good the 
tutorials


would be except to introduce people to iTunes, and to set it up.

How out of date? It seems like iTunes makes changes with each new version.

Hi,
I use iTunes with JAWS, and it is accessible to the point where you can
definitely use it to create your music library, and it is not too bad in
the store and buying music.
Jim Flusche, did three Audio Tutorials that I have. They are a little out
of date, but I will ask jim if I can share them on this list as a One
Drive link.
I will let you know if it is alright with Jim.
Take care, all!

Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser

By David Moore

This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome.

I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both
work the same in Chrome.

Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build.

I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome.

There should be a shortcut on your desktop.

Section One:

Launching Chrome:

One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and
type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say
Chrome.

However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut
icon on your desktop.

So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to
open Chrome.

The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google
Chrome icon on your desktop.

The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the
window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get
undesirable results.

Section Two:

Bringing up a web site.

Press CTRL+L or Alt+D

and type the following:

www.freedomscientific.com

The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly.

All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo
box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome.

Section Three:

The Virticle Chrome menu:

I will press the Alt key.

The Chrome menu is open.

This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down
arrow through.

I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu.

New Tab, CTRL+T.

You can press that command right from the web site you are on.

New Window, CTRL+N

You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming
here.

New incognito Window.

History sub menu.

I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu!

History, CTRL+H

So, there is a key command for reading your history.

You can read a few sites you were on right here.

I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu.

Downloads, CTRL+J

There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with
Chrome.

Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu.

I will press right arrow, to open this.

I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D

That command will bookmark the page you are reading.

Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B

That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to
see. I do not want that.

Here is the important one.

manage bookmarks

The command is, CTRL+Shift+O

In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you
have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can
download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome.

On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and
a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in
Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to
your computer, so you can back them up.

That is all for manage bookmarks.

Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings.

press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE,
and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their
corresponding folders.

Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down.

Very important!

Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices
I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks.
If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these
choices.

Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key
commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You
only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved
bookmarks, and enter on the desired one.

To save a web site as a bookmark,

Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved.

I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu!

I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we
entered by just pressing alt.

The next few are very self explanatory.

The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu.

I will press right arrow on this.

I hear Save Page as, and the command, CTRL+S.

Next, Save to desktop.

This allows you to save the favorite of the page right to your desktop.
This is how you do this in Chrome, instead of doing this in the file menu in
IE.

It is hidden under this more tools submenu.

Clear Browsing data, and there is the key command, CTRL+Shift+Delete key.

Extentions, 

Re: [JAWS-Users] table announcement

2018-02-18 Thread Adrian Spratt
My solution to this problem is to re-open the message in IE. So, open the 
message, then press alt-h, pause a second, then a, pause a second, then v. Now 
the message should have opened in IE. I mention these pauses because I find 
taking these three steps too quickly makes the operation fail. 

I don't know why JAWS has an easier time with complex email messages when put 
in IE, but in my experience it does.

This method works in Outlook 2016 and 2010 and with IE11. If it matters, my OS 
is Windows 7.

Hi Rebecca,

While in Outlook open your Jaws quick settings, Jaws key + V, navibate to the 
Tables settings to make changes.  Or, while in Outlook open the Settings 
Center, Jaws key + 6, on the number row above the main keyboard, arrow down to, 
Web / HTML / PDFs, right arrow to open, arrow down to, Lists & Tables, right 
arrow to open, & see if changing settings here will help.
Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

example in jaws 2018 and outlook 2016?  It says something like this when I'm 
reading an email. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Ribbon view in Windows 10

2018-02-18 Thread Jorge Rivas
Hi,
If, you press insert V and arrow down  to ribbons, you can check and uncheck.

Tiles are only in your start menu on items you can open to view or adjust and 
close.
Windows 10 runs smoother , when all the tiles are close.
When, you're blind you have to open the tile to see inside the tile, but people 
with vision can see through the tile.

Jorge,
There is no better symbol for the purpose we serve than the emblem every Marine 
earns: the Eagle, Globe and Anchor. The eagle represents the proud nation we 
defend. It stands at the ready with our coastlines in sight and the entire 
world within reach of its outstretched wings. The globe represents our 
worldwide presence. The anchor points both to the Marine Corps' naval heritage 
and its ability to access any coastline in the world. Together, the eagle, 
globe and anchor symbolize our commitment to defend our nation—in the air, on 
land and at sea.

Hi everyone. Is there a way of changing the view in Windows 10 so that things 
aren’t in ribbons, but the way they used to be. I also don’t know what tiles 
are. I’m finding the new outlay  extremely confusing and intimidating. Thanks 
for any ideas.

Cheers!
