[JAWS-Users] Internet Explorer Configuration file

2007-04-27 Thread Jeffrey Turner

I am running Jaws 8.0.1177 and when I launch the Configuration Manager for
Internet Explorer the file name showing on the title bar is Internet
Explorer.jcf. When I use the Explore Settings option for Jaws 8 though, I
find no such file listed in the enu folder. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks, Jeffrey

I have been told that Roxio and Nero do not coexist happily on the same
computer, but I have not tried it out myself.

Since Roxio and Nero seem to work with Jaws well, should I install both to
try, or would they mess up each other? If given a choice, which one do you
think has more Jaws accessibility?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Roxio Fix Revealed


Hi Folks,
 
Since there were people who wanted to know, aside from me how to fix the
problem I was having, I thought I would post the fix here, for the benefit
of those who weren't able to figure it out themselves before I could.
 
My thanks to Steve, who's suggestion actually caused me to have more
problems than I had previous to my other dilemma.
 
Basically, what had happened was that I took Steve's suggestion, and
installed Roxio Easy CD/DVD Creator 6 Platinum, which caused Roxio Easy CD
Creator 5 to be uninstalled before it could install version 6.
 
Well, doing that caused a maelstrom of problems, least of which was my CD
burner not reading the files on any CD's I inserted into my CD-RW drive, and
before anyone thinks to ask, these were original commercial disks I stuck in
there, not burnt ones or previously burnt ones.  Grin.
 
Anyway, I am not saying that this was Steve's fault, or the fault of his
suggestion, I figure I didn't do the install right, and the updates weren't
installed properly.  Suffice it to say, I had to do a system restore, in
order to fix the reading capabilities of my CD-RW drive.
 
Needless to say, I was forced to re-install Creator 5 and go with that.
 
Anyway, onto the fix...
 
So, I knew there must be a problem with the view settings because I could
see the list view of items, I just couldn't see the tree view of files, so I
figured there must be something wrong that I just wasn't catching.
 
Quite frankly, I don't know how I could have missed it.
 
First and foremost, one should highlight the properties of the start menu
icon, or desktop icon, depending on where you activate creator 5 from.
 
Actually, if you activate Creator 5 from the desktop icon that was
originally put there when you installed the program, than most likely, you
have launched the Easy CD Creator 5 Application Launcher, which is
completely graphic and hard to work with, so I would suggest deleting that
icon, and going into your start menu, pressing P for Programs, then R until
you get to Roxio, then enter to land on Applications, then arrow down to
Easy CD Creator 5 and press the applications key.  You may not hear Jaws
read that the applications menu has activated, but just arrow down and
you'll find that it has activated.  At this point, arrow down to Send To
sub-menu, then arrow down to Desktop, Create Shortcut.
 
Go to your Desktop, by pressing control+M or the alt+tab combination, and
press the letter E to highlight the Easy CD Creator 5 icon.
 
Press the applications key, and arrow up to properties.
 
In the shortcut properties dialog box, tab to the shortcut key, if desired,
and enter it, then tab once more to the run combo box, and arrow down to
maximized, then tab to apply, then shift+tab back to ok.  The decision of
creating a shortcut key is completely yours, and is not necessary to fix the
problem, just to let you all know.
 
Now that you've done the initial set-up, highlight the desktop icon and
press enter.
 
Now that you have the Easy CD Creator 5 program open, press the alt+V for
the view menu, and make sure the following is checked.  If you find it is
not checked, press enter on it to check it.
 
The following should be checked:
 
Show Explorer Bar.
 
And;
 
List.
 
If you check these two items, you'll get all the accessibility you want.
You can then press insert+H for available hotkeys.
 
Hope this helps, and again, I thank Steve for his suggestion, and say that
if it weren't for him, I would have never been driven to find the answer on
my own.
 
Thanks Steve.
 
Victor

I'm not Denny, but I deleted all but one of my temp files using the %tmp%

I don't advise deleting the Windows temp files, but they are mainly located
in the, c:\windows\system32 folder.  Plus there may be others scattered
around in various applications.  But again, unless you know what you are
deleting, I don't advise it.
The Internet temp files are located in, c:\documents and settings\(your
profile name)\local settings\temporary Internet files.  This is where your
temp files and cookies are stored.  Most of these files provide faster
loading of visited web pages.  I don't see that it affects the performance

The, %temp% command will delete the temp files in the root directory.  It
doesn't remove the Windows temp files or the Internet temp files.
As for the cookies, that is up to you whether you want to delete them or
not.  Deleting them won't do anything to enhance the performance of your PC.

Lisa,
You can perform 3 of the tasks mentioned.
1. Check Disk
Go to run and type in,
chkdsk /f (drive letter): and press enter.  Note the colon after the drive
letter.  Unlike running a check disk on your C drive, you won't need to
reboot for this to perform.
 
2. Scan Disk
Per form the scan disk just as you would on the C drive, but of course
highlighting the drive you want to scan as opposed to the C drive.  Then
just follow the instructions as you would for the C drive.  Again, you won't
have to reboot for this to run.
 
3. Defrag
Perform as you would for the C drive but again, highlight the drive you want
to defrag.
 
One more step that I didn't include in those instructions is cleaning up the
temp files.
This should be performed on the C drive.
Close all applications with the exception of Jaws.
Go to run and 

[JAWS-Users] Re: Question about computer maintenance

2007-04-13 Thread Jeffrey Turner
Go to the run command and type %tmp% and press enter. This will put you in
an explorer window with a list of non-crucial temporary files, which you can
delete. If you've closed all programs before running this command, you
should be able to use control+A to highlight them all, and then just press
shift+delete to delete them from your computer, bypassing the recycle bin.

Unlike Patricia, I was unable to find the checkbox to avoid installing the

[JAWS-Users] Re: JFW 7.1 and Excel XP

2007-02-27 Thread Jeffrey Turner

In looking at the help topic for Excel keystrokes last night, I saw one for
selecting an entire region.  Don't remember what it was now, but I wondered
if that would help me copy a group of cells I use as a template for tracking
credit card expenses.  The way I do it now is to use the Go to command,
control+g and enter, for example, a41:p59.  That highlights the cells I want
to copy, and I use control+C to copy them.  Then I select another comparable
area, like a61:p79 with the control+g command again, and paste the template
in.

Does someone know how to define a region, and would doing so make this
process easier?

Since you use Excel a lot, maybe you can answer a question of mine.
When I insert a graphic into a cell, Jaws stops speaking.  The only thing I
can do is to press escape a couple of times to get it speaking again.
Any solution for this?  Or is that about all I can do?

 When I insert a graphic into a cell, Jaws stops 
speaking.  The only thing I
 can do is to press escape a couple of times to get it 
speaking again.
 Any solution for this?  Or is that about all I can do?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Denny

 That is correct info Denny, I use Excel every week and 
this has happen to me
 numerous times and those are the steps to widen the 
column..
 also if it's just a row, shift and spacebar selects the 
entire row then alt
 O, arrow to row enter, then to auto-wide and enter..

 Larry,
 Not sure if this will help, but try selecting all, 
control a, go to the
 format menu, alt o, arrow down to columns and press 
enter.
 Arrow down to auto fit and press enter.

 Hi Folks,

 This morning while pasting some data from a Microsoft 
word table Jaws
 stopped reading the number columns and started saying 
###. This happened 
 to
 me once before and I can't for the life of me remember 
how to fix it.
 Any memory floggers you can provide are as always 
greatly appreciated.


 Regards

[JAWS-Users] Jaws and Java

2007-01-28 Thread Jeffrey Turner

For those brave souls who have installed Java and the Access Bridge, have
you found any degradation in system performance?  Also, how are Java and the
Access Bridge for working with the current versions?  Jaws help mentions
version 2.1.4.1 for Java, and I see they are up to 5 now.  Any danger of
getting a version that is beyond Jaws' support?

Thanks,
Jeffrey

[JAWS-Users] Re: Adobe reader 8

2007-01-27 Thread Jeffrey Turner
Can anyone suggest an alternative site as a source for Acrobat Reader 8?
This link doesn't work for me.  I reach the page, and after an extremely
long wait, am able to see a tab for the software, but cannot read anything
on the page.  Refreshing with either f5 or insert+esc doesn't help.
 
Thanks,
Jeffrey

Downloading and installing adobe reader 8, You can download this program
from: 

 

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep3.html?option=full
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep3.html?option=fullorder=1ty
pe=language=Englishplatform=WinXPSP2esdcanbeused=1esdcanhandle=0hasjava
script=1getsconly=1getgtb=1x=0y=0
order=1type=language=Englishplatform=WinXPSP2esdcanbeused=1esdcanhandl
e=0hasjavascript=1getsconly=1getgtb=1x=0y=0 

 

Once the website loads, tap the letter X two times to move to the check box
that says (free Google Toolbar) and tap the space bar to uncheck it. This
will insure that you don't inadvertently download this annoying Toolbar.

 

You then need to tap the letter B two times or until you move to the
(download Adobe Reader button) and then tap enter to start the download
process. If you hear a blupey sound, this means that the program is being
blocked and you will need to hold down Alt and tap the letter N. then tap
your applications key, down arrow to install and enter. This will tell your
computer that it is OK to download the program.

 

You then will receive a message asking if you would like to run or save this
file. Up-arrow to run and enter. The download process will start. It may
take a few minutes to download. When it is dun, you will be placed on a
install now button, tap enter on this button. You now will be placed on a
next button, tap enter on this button.  You now will be placed on another
install button, enter on this button. Now just sit back and let it take care
of it's self. When it has finished installing, you will be placed on a
finish button. Just enter on this button to complete the install. Keep in
mind at any time you would like to repeat the last prompt spoken, just use
the JAWS repeat command insert plus tab.

 

Now you will need to set up the program. The license agreement will pop up.
Shift tab back to the except button and tap enter. Now an accessibility
option screen will pop up all you need to do hear is tab once to (use
recommended settings and skip setup button) and then tap enter. Now all you
need to do is use alt plus F4 to close the program and the next time you
receive a .PDF file you should be able to open it.


I hope these directions are clear, I put them together in about 10 minutes.

[JAWS-Users] Re: JAWS 8 AND THE REPLY FEATURE

2007-01-17 Thread Jeffrey Turner


I have also experienced very sluggish response when forwarding or replying
to a message if that message was sent as html.  I've always just accepted it
as the nature of the html beast.

Do you experience this sluggish behavior on text messages?

Something really strange about Jaws Version 8 and Outlook Express.  Many 
times, when I press the Control R command when I'm lined up on a message, 
the Edit box opens okay but Jaws is so sluggish as to be practically 
useless.  You type a word and about 2 seconds later, Jaws responds.  Does 
anyone know what could cause this to happen?


Maybe there's some kind of setting change I should make.
