George,
In some companies, it is trying to be competitive and in some it is being
taken over by another, Such as Northern New England was bout out by
California AAA and in-fact they had built their version of Windows 7..
So really to be competitive in a lot of call centers one needs to be on-top
of the Jaws, latest and in some cases willing to put the money out of their
pocket or the training services to get them there. Then, again, sad that
some companies write their own set up for their operation and hope it is
hack proof and at the same time Causes Jaws not to work on the system
anymore. This is a Jaws Users group so I won't go past just saying sometimes
it is just the name of the game.
Geno have 16 and don't use it with my Windows 7 and internet 11
Hi,
I was thinking of doing the same thing of combining Jaws 14 and window 8.1,
But I usually let other people try it first or ask the club if it's really
compatible?
Or, do some research,
Sometimes I cannot imagine, why people change the system that is working
perfect, just to join all the other people that upgraded to otherOS's and
jaws versions, just to keep running with the dogs?
And you are the first person who has posted on this matter.
>From reading all posts, I think jaws 16 and 8.1 is better, but you'll just
have to get use to the new set up.
HTH,
JORGE

Annette,
I would be curious. After working in two different areas. One running my
son's Stone-Hill-Business and Working for AAA Emergency Road Service as a
Call Receiver. With AAA, I had my own license Pro running my son's business
and just received permission from Freedom Scientific to use at AAA, now 15
years ago. Anyway, at the AAA job I had a lot of script writing done to
accomplish some of the task in doing Emergency Road service calls. In the
scripting I can tell you if it was working fine and then there is issues.
The area set up for the scripts (Sorry don't know the term knowledge used)
yet if those frames have been moved or there has been an up-grade to the
system, it will throw off the scripts. The other is is the company willing
to drop back to Windows 7 where maybe the Jaws in question was working or
willing to wait till Windows 10 comes out in Late March so I've been told.
As I've been told it will be one more secure and similar to windows 7..
The question might end up coming to what is the company willing to spend in
the Jaws..
Geno
I am in agreement with you, but I need concrete information to build my
case. Given that my users are having such varied experiences, I'm hoping
that someone can point me in the direction of a known and consistent problem
that I can replicate, and then use as supporting evidence.

Unfortunately, employers are going to have to keep moving up with JAWS
versions if they are going to upgrade equipment.

Are there any known issues with using JAWS14 with Windows 8.1?
Unfortunately, JAWS16 has not been approved in my work environment and I've
got some JAWS users who have been moved over to Windows8.1 and are
experiencing problems. None of them are experiencing the same problems. FS
has been contacted in each situation and has told the user and the IT rep
that there is no way to resolve the problem other than moving to JAWS16. IT
is convinced that because no 2 users are experiencing the exact same
problem, that the issues can be resolved and there is no need for JAWS16.
Some problems that have been experienced are:
. Inability to use Alt plus a number key to read
header info in an
open Outlook2010 e-mail message
. Unable to navigate the Outlook2010 calendar
. Unable to read the contents of an Excel2010 cell
after using the
F2 to enter into Edit mode of that cell
. Many problems with using spell checker in
MS-Word2010.
Are there any known problems like the ones listed above that can be
attributed to the use of JAWS14 that can only be resolved by moving to
JAWS16? Are there any other issues not listed here that can only be
resolved by moving to JAWS16?
Thanks,
Annette
