Hi Lauren,
I use Google Docs with JAWS 17 and win10. First
of all, You can easily get to Google Docs from
your Google drive. So, to make things easier,
Just think about Google drive, and you can get
to all of the other apps from it. First of all, the URL to type in is:
drive.Google.com
Donât type the www.
Next, you want to be using Firefox; however, IE
is close behind for working well with Google
Drive. When the page comes up, you will be put
in your list of files on My drive of Google
Drive. Immediately, press insert + X to turn off
the virtual cursor. to use these Google apps,
you cannot have the virtual cursor on, because
you are working in an app, and you do not want
the keys you press to activate the JAWS
navigation commands like h for heading, for
example. In Google Drive, there are different
default folders just like on your hard drive.
Now, if someone sends you a file, press gn to go
to the navigation area and arrow to the incoming
folder and press enter. Then, you will be able
to open up the file that was sent to you. There
are many key commands you have to know to get
around Google Drive. Google Docs does not come
into play until you open a Google document
within your list of files that is in your My
Drive area of Google Drive. If you enter on a
Google Doc, it will open up in a separate area
called Google Docs! See how Google Drive is the
hub of Google Docs, Google Sheets, and so on.
When you are in Google Drive, press ctrl + / to
bring up all key commands for Google Drive, and
do the same when a Google Doc opens in Google
Docs. Some of the important key commands, In
Google Drive, to get to your list of files,
press gl. Press up and down arrow to go through
your files. To create a new document, press the
letter C and arrow down to document and press
enter. Google Docs will then open with a blank
document window for you to Type in. When you
press the letter C to get to the new menu, you
were in Google Drive at that point. You did not
go into Google docs, until you pressed enter on
document to create a new document, then the
Google Docs window opened. See how everything
starts by being in Google Drive. So, You go from
Google Drive to Google Docs by doing two things.
If you press enter on a Google doc in your list
of files in Google Drive, that document will
open up in Google Docs, and then you can edit it
with all kinds of key commands you have to
learn. Now, if you are in Google drive and you
want to create a new document, press the letter
C to go to the new menu and down arrow to
document and press enter, and that will also put
you in Google docs with a blank document window
and you can create your new document. The key
commands are so different, because you are using
programs that open in your browser. If you use a
lot of the commands you use in MS Office, they
will activate your browser instead of the
program itself. Please email me and let me know
what you need help with and maybe we can get a
hold of each other on Skype. My email is:

Have a great one, and hope that helps a little to clear some things up.
