I remember how much fun it wasn't trying to get through adjusting some Paypal settings when I had to call them, as the control to get where devices are is not something I could find. Luckily, they were able to do what needed to be done from their end, as the problem was that my push notifications became disabled with no way to turn it back on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marten Post Uiterweer" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 01, 2016 1:41 PM Subject: Re: How Can Sighted People Tell Where I Am At on a Screen in JAWS? Hi Brian, True. A few weeks ago, a sighted person talked me through a webpage. The brailleviewer was on, so he saw what Jaws was showing, but he had to compare it wit the webpage each time to see, where I was on the page.
