Michael, 

It’s off, but I have no idea if I turned that off or not. So many updates here 
recently. I resorted to sighted help on this one. Things seem to be ok on other 
sites, so I’ll just chalk this one up to chance. lol

I wonder if you have the new smart navigation feature on.  That has been 
introduced in JAWS 17, and it makes navigating pages different.  You may want 
to check and see if it is turned on, and if so, disable it for the page you’re 
referring to.  You can do this by pressing JAWS Key plus V, and then searching 
for smart navigation.  Good luck!

Subject: IE 11 with Jaws 17

 

I just upgraded to Windows 10, but I don’t think that’s the issue here. Using 
Jaws 17 and IE in Windows 10. When I go to a site like the Manage my apple ID 
page, I am finding it virtually impossible to navigate outside of edit fields. 
I can’t explain exactly what’s happening, but it’s like I can only read parts 
of the page, and old arrowing options aren’t working. One thing I remember is 
that in a combo edit field, the arrow keys actually are inserting numbers. Just 
strange behaviour all around. 

 

IE 11 isn’t new. Jaws 17 is quite new for me, and Windows 10 is brand new. Any 
ideas what might be going on here? 

 

Jean
