Then perhaps, along the lines suggested by another member, you could
attempt a JAWS11 repair. when reinstalling the braille driver in JAWS11,
did you get any extra messages, an error message, or any note about
discontinued support for a chosen option? Given that both JAWS and the
Focus (whatever the model) are both supported by Freedom Scientific, it
hshould be within the writ - if not in the wit - of FS to technically
support it. if a JAWS repair doesn't fix things, You may, ultlimately,
need to remove the working braille driver and install that which came
with JAWS11 so that all of the JAWS versions including 11 will work with
it. or - at that point - you may prefer to contact FS.

Hi Flor,
I am not sure when the braille refresher was bought, but it is an old
one. I
have known her for at least five years and she had that braille
refresher
then and it was already a bit old. Maybe she should get the one you
are
mentionning?

When you mention the Focus40, I took it to mean the Focus40 Blue. I
recently got the Focus40 Blue and am using JAWS12., which works well
with
it. The good thing is that it also works well with all previous
versions of
JAWS that I have, going back to JAWS8. I might suggest, therefore,
download
and install the demo of JAWS12 and, if/when removing JAWS12 keep
shared
components. There is no need for the Focus40 Blue CD driver with
JAWS12.

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
