Hi Sugar, Regarding general Windows sounds like the one played when Outlook ask for permanently deletion of deleted items or the default beep which JAWS plays at the top of a document, you may have system sounds muted. In Windows 7, in the context menu for the volume icon, go to Open Volume Mixer to open this utility. In the Volume Mixer window, tab to the Volume for System Sounds slider and, in addition to check that the volume is in an audible level, make sure the muting button which you can reach by tabbing once more is not pressed. If this particular volume is muted, press the button to unmute it. For some sounds made by Office programs, like the ones Outlook make when sending or deleting messages or Word when saving or auto-correcting, you need an add-on called Office Sounds which is not installed by default. To easily get it, in Word, go to the File tab and then to the Help tab. In the Help tab, find and activate the Options button. In the Categories list box, go to Advanced and, using the TAB key, find and check the Provide Feedback with Sound checkbox and press ENTER to save the change. If the add-on is not installed, you'll get a prompt to go to the Office website to download it. In this website, you only have to follow the instructions to download the file and then install it as any other program; when finished, the Sounds Control Panel applet will have a new sounds category called Microsoft Office, which will allow to customize Office sounds in sound schemes as any other Windows sound. Unlike in other languages such as Spanish were the add-on was not updated to be compatible with newer Office versions, you will not need to catch the temporarily generated MSI nor modify the Registry to complete the installation of the add-on in English. But even if you have a localized Office installation, you can use the English add-on without any issue; the only relevant difference is that names of Office sound events in the Sounds dialog will be displayed in English.
Hope it helps. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Sugar Lopez Sent: Monday, June 26, 2017 7:15 PM To: 'jaws-users-list' <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Subject: [JAWS-Users] sound issue Hi all I am so stuck and hhave no one one else to turn to.

I am sorry if I have asked this again but maybe I have not explained myself and all that I have been told to do has not worked, not that they are wrong maybe I just don't know as much. Feeling so useless here There is speaking grace. Colossians 4:6 says, "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man." ~Blessings, Sugar For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ --- El software de antivirus Avast ha analizado este correo electrónico en busca de virus. https://www.avast.com/antivirus For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
