Re: [JAWS-Users] what is skype talking
Yes, it does. I tried SkypeTalking and it works with Skype 3.8 and above. Sorry, I will re-phrase. I use SkypeTalking, and I tried it once with 3.8 and it works fine. In fact, if any of you remember the Skype Me! status; SkypeTalking will announce if someone is in Skype Me mode, even if you're not using Skype 3.8.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws and windows 7 VM?
Hi List. I wonder if someone can help me with the problem i'm having. I'm testing Windows7 using a program called VMPlayer, this allows people to test operating systems from within windows or linux as a virtual operating system before physical deployment. The problem i've got is with jaws 11.0.756. I've installed it successfully, but jaws freezes at random times, and when it does, i get a blue screen of death. This does not happen with NVDA or when jaws isn't running. The freezing problem also occurs when jaws is running and i click on shutdown. My suspicions lie with the mirror driver, is this the problem? I haven't heard of this problem when installed as a normal installation, maybe its something to do with the VMWare display component? I've tried changing resolution, turning off visual effects, should i disable 3D? i haven't tried installing direct X, but i didn't think jaws used direct X at all? has anyone got any ideas what could make windows 7 freeze like that? I've also tried using the gineric windows7 graphics adapter driver and completely removing the VMWare driver, but jaws still freezes. I mentioned disabling 3D, don't quote me, but i'm not sure if the gineric adapter driver uses 3D or not? I've checked online for updates, driver updates included, no joy. Any help would be greatly apreciated. All the best, Mo. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and windows 7 VM?
Yes, you diagnosed that right. If you must use JAWS within the VM, deleting the JAWS mirror display driver will allow JAWS to run without crashing. Of course, much of the JAWS functionality will be lost.

[JAWS-Users] Excel Echoes Adjacent Cell.
Hi Folks, I am using JFW 9.latest, Office XP and Windows XP-Pro. I regularly use a data gathering template that is created in Excel XP. When I type data into cell A1 and arrow down to A2 the data in A1 is echoed. The only difference is the data in cell A2 is repeated in the default Jaws cursor voice. This issue continues across the row a2 repeated in B2, C1 repeated in C2 well you get the idea. Being a student of the obvious, the jaws cursor is not turned on. nor is it routed to any other cursor.

Re: [JAWS-Users] about norton
Hi. Yep, generally its down to people not renewing their subscriptions. I just tend to put Malwarebyte's anti-malware on there as well along with Avast, that solves many virus issues that people experience. Of course, the latest versions of internet explorer and firefox also help, but it also depends on the user's surfing habbits. If you're willingly going to go to sites that are known to display many adds, filesharing etc, then run peerblock to eliminate spyware and popups. A couple years back, i had a system which had an infected DLL in windows\system32. I tried a few online scanners and Live CD sollutions, but the only thing that removed the virus was kaspersky. as long as you have an active subscription with the checker you use, you're good to go, just my 2 cents worth.

You know, ever since I installed the latest jfw update, jaws has been reading all the message information (from, subject, received etc) in the list box twice. I contacted tech support and after talking to their escalation guy and doing the whole uninstall/install, disable this and that, I got no real solution to the issue. He did tell me though that what I was experiencing was a bug that had occurred in the beta testing of the update, but that I was the first to report it with the final release... maybe your friend should contact fs as well to see if this too may be a jaws problem rather than some sort of bogous setting on her end...

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and Outlook 2007 message list problem
Definitely. Well she's changing clients like I said earlier, so her Outlook problems may be a thing of the past shortly. I'm encouraging her to try Thunderbird as recently she's had problems starting Outlook. The only way was to log in and delete her Outlook folder from her profile. Rarely have I needed to do this with Thunderbird, so am recommending that for her. Thanks for the thoughts though; greatly appreciated.

[JAWS-Users] Outlook 2007 sluggishness
Hello, Has anyone experienced the following issues with Jaws using Outlook 2007. 1. When I open a message to read, Jaws will pause and not respond for at least 5 seconds before I can read the message. 2. When I open Tools and Customize, Jaws completely stops speaking. 3. While composing a message, Jaws does not respond consistently when I press the backspace key. Meaning that when I press backspace key repeatedly, Jaws responds with a jitter. Sometimes it speaks the deleted character immediately, sometimes it lagged a second before saying the deleted character. Has anyone encountered any of these issues and whether you have been successful in resolving these issues? I have the same problems using Jaws 10 or 11. And it doesn't matter whether I'm reading an html or plain text message. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2007 sluggishness
I open messages in my browser and have to wait several seconds after pressing the alt key before I hear the message tab on the ribbon announced. Then there is another pause when I hit the appropriate key on my quick access tool bar. It would be interesting to have someone watch the screen to see if they could determine if the sluggishness is within Outlook 2007- which I somewhat suspect- or whether JAWS is part or all of the problem. The plain text messages certainly are more responsive, and I may change that option someday and see if I can live with that any better.

Cher IE 7- Tour of New Features list of 5 items New Interface Tabbed Browsing Search RSS Feeds Security list end New Interface and Keystrokes In IE7, the menu bar is turned off by default and the address bar, other toolbars and a row showing the open tabs have changed the look of the top portion of the IE window. Summary: This table contains the components that appear in the Internet Explorer 7 toolbar Internet Explorer 7 Toolbar Components Toolbar Item. | Keystroke/Description. | Back and Forward buttons. | ALT+LEFT ARROW and ALT+RIGHT ARROW, which apply to the current tab. | Address bar. | ALT+D. | Refresh button. | F5.

Also opens the About Internet Explorer dialog box. | Favorites Center Internet Explorer 7 groups the Favorites list, Feeds list, and History list into an area called the Favorites Center. What You Hear When You Open Internet Explorer 7 When you first open the browser, JAWS announces the following items before reading the page: list of 4 items . Application name . Web page title . Feeds, if supported by the page . Number of frames, headings, and links list end A number of methods are available to read the Web page at this point. For example, you can press TAB to go to the first link or control on the page, or press H or INSERT+F6 to navigate by headings, or press INSERT+F7 to navigate by links, and so on. Freedom Scientific has made a significant modification to Internet Explorer keyboard functionality. In previous JAWS releases, the tabbing order in Internet Explorer always placed the address bar and tool bar first before any Web page links. With JAWS 8.0, pressing TAB now takes you to the first link or control on the page, skipping over the address bar and tool bar. From a usability stand point, this is much more efficient than previous JAWS releases. Pressing SHIFT+TAB still allows you to move backwards to the tool bar and address bar. Also, if you tab all the way through the page, JAWS will wrap to the address bar from the last element on the page as expected. This functionality is part of the Internet Explorer design and has not been altered by JAWS. Note: If you tab into the numerous toolbars at the top of the IE page, you will have to tab several times to find your way back out or make a list of your open tabs and select the tab for the page you want to get back to. New and Modified JAWS Keystroke Commands The Jump to Cell command, CTRL+J, which appears in the Navigation Quick Keys help topic and the JAWS Commands for HTML help topic, has changed. The new command is CTRL+WINDOWS Key+J. The CTRL+J command is now used to view the Feeds list in Internet Explorer 7. The ALT+J command opens the Feeds menu in Internet Explorer 7. The CTRL+E command moves focus to the Search box in Internet Explorer 7. Next in the tour: Tabbed Browsing Tabbed Browsing: An easier way to switch between Web sites Whether you're searching the web, comparing prices, or just staying on top of your favorite topic, Internet Explorer 7 lets you view many different websites at one time - all within one organized window. Use the new tabs in Internet Explorer 7 to Browse, shop, and search multiple websites at once How to Use Tabbed Browsing Launch Internet Explorer 7 and your home page opens in the first tab. To view other sites at the same time, just click the new tab button (Control-T) in the toolbar and then type the address of the site you want to visit in the address bar. Your home page stays open in the first tab. Closing tabs

Re: [JAWS-Users] avast accessibility
Mo, I had the same reticence prior to switching to MSE. But, I read several articles comparing MSE at various virus testing labs not affiliated with Microsoft. It rated as the best of the free programs and among the upper group of commercial AV programs. Since it has an active spyware as well as anti-virus, and since you can easily configure the scanning options, I am feeling quite comfortable with this program. Again, look at the reviews since this is a relatively new program within the past eight months. - Original Message - From: Mobeen Iqbal mobeeniq...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Friday, April 30, 2010 3:41 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] avast accessibility Lol. I never drempt when i posted the info about avast thatit would create this much of an interesting discussion! There is no wrong or right answer, this reminds me a little of politics verses religion, in the tech world maybe there will never be an answer to a lot of things. Good for you that you're using MSEE is all i can say, as i said each to his own. The issue from anyone's security prispective should not necissarily be accessibility though this does play a HUGE part, but also weather the program actually is doing what its supposed to do. i haven't tried MSEE, nor do i intend to, though perhaps i'll try it when i next have a machine i'm not afraid of breaking in terms of the windows installation. The way i see it, a good shield should keep the virus from getting in to your pc in the first place, not clean it when its already infected! surely that's logical? but yes, in the unlikely event that a virus has entered someone's computer, it should be able to clean it as well. If microsoft had a track record we could trust, i'd say excellent, they're a great company with a great idea and i'd stick to them like glue. But unfortunately, they don't, maybe we should all switch to linux to resolve the dispute :) . Mo.
