I am not exactly clear what you are asking but if you are talking about using the Focus for editing using Jaws V11 you have to be sure to turn on typing mode. You toggle this on/off by holding down the two buttons right on the front of the focus along with the spacebar. Since I am out of town and do not have the focus in front of me I can not remember if those buttons are the shift or selecter buttons. If you upgrade to Jaws v12 you do not have to do this. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mireille Lavoie" <[email protected]>

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 11, Focus 40 and IE 8


Hi everybody,

This is my first time writing to the list.

I have a big problem. My friend used to access the internet with Internet
Explorer 7, Jaws 8 and a Focus 40 braille refresher. Since her web browser
went to version 8 of IE, she cannot use Jaws 9 (for example, when she tries to type something in Google, Jaws acts as if she was employing a shortcut, I tried pressing enter before typing and it still acts the same way). In this
case, the braille refresher is working. When she switches to Jaws 11, the
braille refresher does not work at all, not in IE and not on the Desktop or
Notepad for example.

I think, and this is where I need your help, that the braille refresher is
not compatible with Jaws 11. If this is not the case, what could cause that situation? I reinstalled the braille refresher driver, I checked in Jaws 11
that USB was chosen for the braille refresher, I changed where the USB was
pluged. I also tried to revert (against my preferences) IE to version 7 but
couldn't. I don't know what else to try.

Can somebody help, please?

Mireille
