Re: [JAWS-Users] Can't Seem To Close Microsoft Outlook 2000 down
Donnie, Uncheck the desktop alert in your outlook email settings menu. Then the sound should go away if outlook is closed. It works that way on two computers I use. I don't think you have to remove anything from the system tray.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 10 notepad
Hi all, Thanks to more help from you guys, I appreciate the suggestions and thanks to those who told me that JAWS and Notepad can indeed get along together. In my case, I had to figure out why JAWS worked with Notepad on my wife's account but not on mine. In the Ease of Access Center (Windows Key + U), there is a setting I had checked and my wife didn't. The setting is called Make The Rectangle Focus Thicker and it's under the section called, Make The Computer Easier To See. I unchecked it, and Notepad works fine. Thanks, everyone for the troubleshooting tips.

For your JAWS10 update problem: Just download the full version over top of your current JAWS10. I hope the link is correct. You can get the latest update from Download links for the full 32bit version: ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/JAWS/J10.0.1142.exe If you still have problems updating, then completely remove your current JAWS10 BEFORE REINSTALLING THE LATEST. - Original Message - From: Van Der Walt Riana rivanderw...@justice.gov.za To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 6:54 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 10 notepad Hi Garry, I haven't followed this thread closely, but I've also used Notepad with jaws 10 and not even the latest update, as for some sinister reason it doesn't want to update if I do it via the update option.

[JAWS-Users] I'm having a problem when using Capital letters whencreating the message rule!
Hello Friend, I use message rules quite often, and yes you are correct! when you use capital letters when where the to line contains people or the subject line contains specific words, that I've noticed that I have an apostrophe before the capital letter. I have always just ignored this, and the Rules work fine. I would suggest you just ignore it also. Just one of those things, one never understands about Windows! But if it is working, no reason to try to fix it, my Father always said!

[JAWS-Users] FW: aria live regions
Hi, I'm doing some work with Live Regions in a project and after implementing it, I couldn't get it to work in IE8 and JAWS 10. I thought I must have implemented it incorrectly so I went to http://wiki.codetalks.org/wiki/index.php/Set_of_ARIA_Test_Cases#aria-live to see if it worked better there. I can't get any of those live region test cases to work correctly in IE 8. Is anyone else having this problem? The page doesn't mention any problems with IE8 so I'm wondering if I have another issue perhaps. Do they work for you? I tried rude, assertive, polite... everything. Nothing works for me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 10 update problem
Hi Marilyn, If you press JAWS key and v, you will bring up the verbosity options. Under this there should be an option for changing the Echo of your typing. If this is set to off you will not hear what you type. You can experiment with which setting you like but you will need to set it in your default choices if you want it to stay they you set it.
