Hi Michele, 

I don't know the keystrokes offhand but I would first go to the Google page.  
Then go into the tools menu and into internet options.  Under the General tab, 
press enter on save current page and that should do it. 

Nancy

Re: [JAWS-Users] How Do I Change My Home Page in Internet Explorer

2017-03-25 Thread Mike B.
Hi Michele,

Probably the easiest way is to open the Run Dialog with, Windows key + R, 
type the URL of the home page you want to have as your default,

www.google.com

& press enter.  This will take you to Google so, while in / on Google press, 
Alt + T, for tools, press the letter, O, for Options, & this will put you on 
the General tab, or 1 tab down from the beginning of the General tab.
Tab once or twice to, Use Current button, & press the spacebar.  This tells 
IE to use the current page as your homepage.  Tab to, Okay, & press enter to 
save & close options.  Now, close IE, & reopen, & Google should be your 
homepage.
Take care.
Mike

Hi all. I used to have Google as my home page when I opened Internet 
Explorer,  but someone changed it to the Microsoft home page when they were 
doing repairs on my laptop. How do I change it back? I've looked through the 
menus but can't find an option for it. I'm using Windows 7, JAWS 18 and the 
latest  Internet Explorer.

Thanks.

2017-03-25 Thread Andy Baracco
another way you can do it is to bring up IE, go to the page that you want as 
your home page, Hit ALT-T, then arrow up to Internet Options and hit ENTER. 
TAB over to "use current" and hit the spacebar and then tab over to OK and 
hit the spacebar.

Just type in the preferred homepage,
