Re: [JAWS-Users] Pages Speaking in Mexican

If it's just on ancestry.com, which is the only site you mentioned -- it's got something to do with that site specifically. It could be something like a profile or account setting. Or else, it's a glitch. I searched google and came up with someone who had a similar problem; nobody replied to him,

[JAWS-Users] why not copy files

There was a question asked about why I just did not copy the files. I have only one cable readily available. I did not want to use my grandson’s computer since he now just has zoom text installed. To get at his cable you have to pull out his computer desk and reach behind to try and find the

[JAWS-Users] convert/format interesting

Well I again tried the convert on my win 7 machine. At the top it stated that it is fat32 and will be fat32 Using the format with f: /q /fs:ntfs at the top of the screen it reads fat32 the next line states that it will be ntfs It then asked for a new name. I assume that I have to let it run most

[JAWS-Users] Pages Speaking in Mexican

Hi,In both Internet Explorer, and on Chrome, I have some pages defaulting to Mexican.The rest of my computer stays on English, but in Ancestry.com, it goes to Mexican, as that is what it sounds like, and in the address bar, there is .MX in place of .Com.So I changed it for a while, and then I

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creating a new folder

Hi Linda, The FN key can be disabled so the the, F1 thru F12 keys, work normally, but you'll need to do a search for your exact laptop model for the steps. From what I've read in the past about HP laptops this needs to be done in the bios which will require sighted help since Jaws won't work

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creating a new folder

Oh thank you! One of the problems I have had with this computer, an HP laptop, is that they have assigned the function keys to their icons of their own choosing. I have figured out how to get around that by using the key between the left windows and control keys. However, every once in a while, I

Re: [JAWS-Users] convert ex drive from fat32 to ntfs?

Hm, that is supposed to be true going the other way (NTFS to Fat), but it should be able to. Maybe on this particular drive though, it can't, for whatever reason. Nevertheless I hope this works on your own drive that was apparently converted to fat after you restored! -Original

Re: [JAWS-Users] my conversion idea failed

Damn. I'm not really surprised it did that. I think an image is supposed to be a complete replica of the drive, including filesystem. Why didn't you just do a straight copy of the data using file explorer? You could try that convert command again? Seems that you're getting the same result with

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creating a new folder

I have the latest version of windows 10, 1803. When you first open your Documents folder, nothing should be selected. JAWS should say, not selected before it says the name of the first folder. You have several choices as to how you create a new folder. 1. Press control-shift-n and JAWS should

[JAWS-Users] my conversion idea failed

I had the idea to make an image for windows backup of my grandson’s ex drive. Then restore it to my drive before reformatting his. After a 9 hour backup and a 4 hour restore things became worse. The restore converted my ntfs drive to a fat32. I made the guess that it just would rewrite the

well, it was a good try. That command would not work. I called ms support and they came to the conclusion that the only way is to reformat the drive and recover the data from a backup. I used image for windows and it took a little over 9 hours to backup. It almost did not fit on the laptop hd.
