The problem is that when using insert right arrow, Jaws will read word by
word for a few words and then pop into spelling mode for some reason. I am
going to start using control right arrow to see if it happens. I have a
hearing problem and have always had to at one point or another use insert
right arrow to clarify what I am hearing so I have had to do this a lot with
previous versions of Jaws. Just wondering if anyone else is having this
problem. I have been using windows 7 and jaws 12 along with windows live
mail for only a few weeks and so far have noticed it mostly with W L M. It
might have something to do with the virtual cursor. Now that I think about
it, it happpened while I was on the internet this morning.

Hi
By design , if you press the keys for say word twice quickly, JAWS will
spell the word. Then if you next use JAWSKey+right or left arrow, JAWS
remains in spelling mode and will spell each word you move to. To get back
to regular Say Word mode, press the keys for say word once. As far as JAWS
losing focus, make sure that the application window you use is maximized by
pressing Alt+space and then press x. In some applications, this problem is
more prevalent, and the only solution that I've heard of is to do what you
are doing by using Alt+Tab.

I just upgraded from version 9 to version 12. I am using windows 7, 64 bit.
Frequently, when reading word by word with insert right arrow, Jaws will go
into and get stuck in the spelling mode. Anyone else experiencing this?
Also, I find that Jaws loses focus fairly often and I have to do an alt tab
to get it straightened out again.
