[JAWS-Users] List Guidelines Reminder
Hello and welcome to the JAWS Users list. This list has been created for The purpose of discussing all aspects of the JAWS for Windows screen reader Program. So everything that pertains to JAWS is fair game. Such as asking about what software packages work well with JAWS or how to make them work even better with scripts, keyboard short cuts and so forth. Another example could be requesting information on how to do something in Microsoft Word, which as we all know works very well with JAWS, but you need to know how to do a certain task or want to learn a way to accomplish it more efficiently. Now this is a very important point in my opinion, asking the list for exact instructions every time is not a good thing to do for a major reason. It creates a dependency situation even if you don't realize it does. The ideal place I am hoping the list will arrive at some day is that everybody no matter how new they might happen to be with JAWS or computers will have the confidence to try things on their own, and yet feel if they get stuck the list will be there to help put them back on track. Trust me when I say that help is quicker to arrive for somebody who is well known to ask for it last than first. So try it yourself first what ever it might happen to be. If you get stuck then let the list know what you've done to try and resolve your current dilemma. Then I'm sure help will arrive with in short order. Next a post asking if there is a software package that does a specific task and works well with JAWS is perfectly fine. The rules of conduct are quite simple and straightforward. Be polite and Patient with others. There will be absolutely no fighting, and no bashing of Freedom Scientific on here at all. If you have a problem with them then I suggest you take it up with Freedom Scientific directly. Please try to keep subject lines relevant and descriptive as possible. Also any news letters except those that directly pertain to JAWS should not be posted to the list prior to receiving moderator approval. Attachments are removed before any message is sent to the list. This is done for your protection. The message list might state that there is an attachment but in fact Mailman does remove them. When contacting any of the list moderators privately please be descriptive in the subject line as to the purpose of the message. Many of us simply delete messages from people we don't know. At the present time there are over 450 subscribers to this list, so we can't possibly know everybody on here. Also, if you have a question for the list that falls within the guidelines, then post it accordingly. Don't contact the management team with questions that are more appropriate for the list itself. Your question may or may not receive an answer for a number of reasons. Everybody should familiarize themselves with the content contained in the footer message that accompanies every message posted to the list. There you will find the group web address along with some other relevant information pertaining to contacting the management team ETC. Occasionally there might be some difficulty with your email address and you may receive an email from the Mailman program asking you to reactivate your account. Please do not simply delete this message. Instead open it and follow the directions to reactivate your account. If you do not after receiving a number of such messages then we will figure that you no longer wish to be a member of the list and remove your email address. The discussion of anything illegal is absolutely forbidden, along with flirting or other such inappropriate activities. this is not a high tech swap shop or anything of that nature at all. This means that goods and or services will not be bought or sold using this forum. If you know a given subject is off topic then don't post it. Simply placing off topic in the subject line does not make it all right. Cross-posting is not permitted, and members should only post in the following manner: Using the TO: field with only one list address. The SUBJECT: field should be short and to the point without including any member names. The reason for this is that in cases where people setup their message rules to go by the To: field often times such rules get fowled up and in effect do not work properly. Also cross posting might allow you to reach many lists at the same time but the fact is such a post might not be on topic for each and every list. This practice does nothing but clutter up such lists with unwanted off topic messages along with annoying the list moderators. Lastly please no jokes, virus warnings, recipes, safety tips, or pleas to help dying kids, should ever be forwarded to the list. No auto responders are to be used on this list! Those who use auto responders for vacations and so forth must make sure that this list is not included. Any person who sends an auto response message will be removed! My hope
[JAWS-Users] Check for updates question
Hello all, I tried to update my copy of JAWS 11.0.1430 to the latest build, but it said I already have the latest JAWS version. Anyone else noticed this? Of course I can download the full build, but thought I would ask on here. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows Live and IE 8 crash
I have Windows Live installed and IE8 is still working for me. On 01/06/2010 03:52, wayne smith wrote: Hello I Got a notice to download Windows Live and I did download it. I was interested in Windows Essentials mentioned in a previous post. Now, every time I try to go to a website using IE 8 I get an error message saying, Script Error. If I use Firefox it works perfectly well. I don't know if I missed some instruction with JAWS or it has nothing to do with that. Can downloading Windows Live require me to access IE 8 in another way?

[JAWS-Users] note to the membership
Some of you are probably noticing a lag in your messages getting posted at least the new members might. This is because all new subscribers are automatically placed on moderated status and their messages must be approved manually by any of the 3 of us who manage this monster of a list as it is around 520 members at this point. The reason for these delays is because traffic has been quite heavy as of late and we don't sit at our keyboards all day reading emails. I'm just telling you this simply as a FYI kind of a deal is all and thank you for your patients. Believe me folks I never would have thought almost 5 years ago that this thing would still be going and have grown to such a gigantic size. The nice thing is that there are enough people of all skill levels on here to help each other out and I do not need to be posting as much as I did in the beginning. This allows me to have more time to do the background stuff which can some times seem overwhelming to Bob, Rick and me. Thank you for making what I started out as a hobby and turned in to something beneficial and productive. No need to reply to this as I just finished reading almost 80 messages before breakfast.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Deleting cookies IE8
Mike, 1. Open Internet Explorer options. Do this either from the internet Options aplet in the control panel, or by opening IE, then pressing alt-t for tools, o for options. 2. Control tab to the privacy settings, and hit enter on the Advanced button. 3. You will receive a dialog on this setting controls how cookies are handled in the internet zone. The first checkbox is Override Automatic Cookie Handling. IE will handle cookies automatically depending on how you have your security slider configured for the internet security zone. To override these settings, check the box. 4. Now, you will be presented with two groups of radio buttons. The first group is for first-party cookies. The second group are for third-party cookies. You can tell this by looking with your Jaws cursor, as Jaws at least in my version combinations using IE8 and prior IE7 and 6 did not read this directly. Your choices in each case are identical: Accept, Block, or Prompt. 5. After that, you come to a checkbox to allow session cookies. Session Cookies are a good example about why I disagreed with Ken D and his strong opinion about cookies being useless and dangerous. Webpages have no memories. A user going from page to page will be treated by the website as a completely new visitor. Session cookies enable the website you are visiting to keep track of your movement from page to page so you don't get asked for the same information you've already given to the site. Cookies allow you to proceed through many pages of a site quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit. The most common example of this functionality is the shopping cart feature of any e-commerce site. When you visit one page of a catalog and select some items, the session cookie remembers your selection so your shopping cart will have the items you selected when you are ready to check out. Without session cookies, if you click CHECKOUT, the new page does not recognize your past activities on prior pages and your shopping cart will always be empty. 6. When you configured everything to your liking, click ok twice.

Since one can configure IE or to a lesser extent Firefox, cookies aren't the dreaded monsters you make them out to be. I have third-party cookies disabled. However, there are advantages to enabling cookies. First, you need to enable them for certain websites to function properly. Second, cookies allow certain websites to keep track of your recent activity: i.e. news sites can show you your preferred articles, shopping cites can preserve your shopping cart and/or recently viewed items. In summary, there is no need to block all cookies. Doing so will make the browsing experience more inconvenient. Having enough knowledge to properly configure your browser and running properly security i.e. anti-virus and anti-spyware programs will allow one to browse safely and still retain the convenience afforded by the proper use of cookies.

Cookies are supposed to speed up accessing their site. For me, without their cookie on my computer, it takes about one half a second. Every time you visit a new website, their cookie is placed on your computer. I don't give a damn about a fraction of a second, in my lifetime. Delete the crap, you will never miss the speed up.

There are 2 different sets of steps. The steps below are the best, most in depth, and most thorough way of repairing Jaws according to Freedom Scientific Tech Support. 1. Place a copy of the Jaws executible version that you want to repair into the main root of the C drive. For example; If you are running Jaws11 most recent you would paste a copy of J11.0.1447-32bit.exe into the main root of the C drive. To open the main root of the C drive, go to the desktop, press enter on My Computer, press enter on Local disk C, and now you have the main root of the C drive open. 2. With the Jaws .exe pasted into the C drive, highlight the .exe , and press F2 as if you were going to edit this line of text. now press control + C to copy this Jaws executible, press escape to close the edit field, + and press Alt + F4 to close the C drive. What you want to do is place just the title of the Jaws version into the Windows Run Dialogue box and not the file. If you were to place the Jaws executible into the Run box without copying as you did as per the instructions above you would have pasted the whole file into the Run Box instead of just the title. 3. Now that you have just the title copied to the clipboard, press Windows key + R to open the Run Dialogue Box. Type c:\ , Ccolon backslash, without the quotes or spaces and press control + V to paste the Jaws title, press your end key to take the cursor to the end of the title and type in the following /type repair without the quotes but, with the spaces . Below is what your line of text should look / read like. c:\J11.0.1447-32bit.exe /type repair Read character by character to make sure you have put in the proper spaces, Forward back slashes text and Jaws version. press the home key to go to the front of the title and press enter to start the repair.

These Bibles are HTML files, that you store on your hard drive, and they run in Internet Explorer.

These same versions are also available in rtf format, for basic access with any screen reader. The Optasia Bibles do not have links to other study resources. However, if you receive the entire Optasia Library, you will be able to make use of a variety of good commentaries, as well as have access to reading material on a variety of topics related to the Bible.

For example; If you are running Jaws11 most recent you would paste a copy of J11.0.1447-32bit.exe into the main root of the C drive. To open the main root of the C drive, go to the desktop, press enter on My Computer, press enter on Local disk C, and now you have the main root of the C drive open. 2. With the Jaws .exe pasted into the C drive, highlight the .exe , and press F2 as if you were going to edit this line of text. now press control + C to copy this Jaws executible, press escape to close the edit field, + and press Alt + F4 to close the C drive. What you want to do is place just the title of the Jaws version into the Windows Run Dialogue box and not the file. If you were to place the Jaws executible into the Run box without copying as you did as per the instructions above you would have pasted the whole file into the Run Box instead of just the title. 3. Now that you have just the title copied to the clipboard, press Windows key + R to open the Run Dialogue Box. Type c:\ , Ccolon backslash, without the quotes or spaces and press control + V to paste the Jaws title, press your end key to take the cursor to the end of the title and type in the following /type repair without the quotes but, with the spaces . Below is what your line of text should look / read like. c:\J11.0.1447-32bit.exe /type repair Read character by character to make sure you have put in the proper spaces, Forward back slashes text and Jaws version. press the home key to go to the front of the title and press enter to start the repair. A 2nd way to do the same thing. From: Brian Lee Hello Jim, You might have already resolved the problem, but if not here is a link that you can use to download the newest update for your 64-bit installation of JAWS. Information about performing the repair is shown below after the download link. ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/JAWS/J11.0.1430-64 bit.exe After downloading the file you can do the following steps to repair the installation: 1. Use Windows key with R to bring up the run dialog box. 2. Use tab key to the browse button and press spacebar. 3. Browse to the downloaded JAWS setup file and press enter key. 4. Use tab key to move to where JAWS says open colon edit combo, press the end key and then press spacebar. 5. Type in /Type repair, (that is first type a slash followed immediately by the word type then a space and then the word repair. 6. Use tab key to the OK button and press enter key. 7. Follow the prompts. Take care. Brian Lee Hope this has helped. Take care.

Open Internet Explorer options. Do this either from the internet Options aplet in the control panel, or by opening IE, then pressing alt-t for tools, o for options. 2. Control tab to the privacy settings, and hit enter on the Advanced button. 3. You will receive a dialog on this setting controls how cookies are handled in the internet zone. The first checkbox is Override Automatic Cookie Handling. IE will handle cookies automatically depending on how you have your security slider configured for the internet security zone. To override these settings, check the box. 4. Now, you will be presented with two groups of radio buttons. The first group is for first-party cookies. The second group are for third-party cookies. You can tell this by looking with your Jaws cursor, as Jaws at least in my version combinations using IE8 and prior IE7 and 6 did not read this directly. Your choices in each case are identical: Accept, Block, or Prompt. 5. After that, you come to a checkbox to allow session cookies. Session Cookies are a good example about why I disagreed with Ken D and his strong opinion about cookies being useless and dangerous. Webpages have no memories. A user going from page to page will be treated by the website as a completely new visitor. Session cookies enable the website you are visiting to keep track of your movement from page to page so you don't get asked for the same information you've already given to the site. Cookies allow you to proceed through many pages of a site quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit. The most common example of this functionality is the shopping cart feature of any e-commerce site. When you visit one page of a catalog and select some items, the session cookie remembers your selection so your shopping cart will have the items you selected when you are ready to check out. Without session cookies, if you click CHECKOUT, the new page does not recognize your past activities on prior pages and your shopping cart will always be empty. 6. When you configured everything to your liking, click ok twice.

Since one can configure IE or to a lesser extent Firefox, cookies aren't the dreaded monsters you make them out to be. I have third-party cookies disabled. However, there are advantages to enabling cookies. First, you need to enable them for certain websites to function properly. Second, cookies allow certain websites to keep track of your recent activity: i.e. news sites can show you your preferred articles, shopping cites can preserve your shopping cart and/or recently viewed items. In summary, there is no need to block all cookies. Doing so will make the browsing experience more inconvenient. Having enough knowledge to properly configure your browser and running properly security i.e. anti-virus and anti-spyware programs will allow one to browse safely and still retain the convenience afforded by the proper use of cookies.

Optasia Ministry has 14 popular versions of the Bible in a form that works very well with JAWS on your desktop computer, as well as notetakers. These Bibles are HTML files, that you store on your hard drive, and they run in Internet Explorer. After setting up the Bible as one of your favorites, you will have easy access to links to books, chapters and verses of the Bible. You will be able to search for specific words and phrases as well. So if you want a Bible to read, one in which it is easy to find a passage, these will work well for you. We have these same 14 versions in a form that is designed for the Victor Stream Reader. These same versions are also available in rtf format, for basic access with any screen reader. The Optasia Bibles do not have links to other study resources. However, if you receive the entire Optasia Library, you will be able to make use of a variety of good commentaries, as well as have access to reading material on a variety of topics related to the Bible. We have about 800 books in the library now, and songs and worship resources as well. If you want to see the complete listing of the Optasia Library, you can visit our website: www.optasiaministry.org We send out all our materials free, since the ministry depends on donations for its support.

There are 2 different sets of steps. The steps below are the best, most in depth, and most thorough way of repairing Jaws according to Freedom Scientific Tech Support. 1. Place a copy of the Jaws executible version that you want to repair into the main root of the C drive. For example; If you are running Jaws11 most recent you would paste a copy of J11.0.1447-32bit.exe into the main root of the C drive. To open the main root of the C drive, go to the desktop, press enter on My Computer, press enter on Local disk C, and now you have the main root of the C drive open. 2. With the Jaws .exe pasted into the C drive, highlight the .exe , and press F2 as if you were going to edit this line of text. now press control + C to copy this Jaws executible, press escape to close the edit field, + and press Alt + F4 to close the C drive. What you want to do is place just the title of the Jaws version into the Windows Run Dialogue box and not the file. If you were to place the Jaws executible into the Run box without copying as you did as per the instructions above you would have pasted the whole file into the Run Box instead of just the title. 3. Now that you have just the title copied to the clipboard, press Windows key + R to open the Run Dialogue Box. Type c:\ , Ccolon backslash, without the quotes or spaces and press control + V to paste the Jaws title, press your end key to take the cursor to the end of the title and type in the following /type repair without the quotes but, with the spaces . Below is what your line of text should look / read like. c:\J11.0.1447-32bit.exe /type repair Read character by character to make sure you have put in the proper spaces, Forward back slashes text and Jaws version. press the home key to go to the front of the title and press enter to start the repair.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Is there a document to adjust/optimize Windows7 to work easier withJAWS11?there
Chris, I admire your ability and experience but sometimes you forget that many of us are not nearly as capable as you are when it comes to manipulating these systems. If there is a document which has been written which specifically deals with how to optimize Jaws for use with Windows 7, I'd appreciate having that resource myself. You started us off by indicating that the place to make such changes would be in Personalizing Windows and that's fine, but where do we go from there? Any help in making Windows 7 behave more comfortably with Jaws 11 would be sincerely appreciated.

Ok, I personally set the theme to Windows Classic. Here is how you do this. Note this is from memory. 1. Right click the desktop, and choose personalize. Make sure nothing is selected first with ctrl+space. 2. Using all four of you arrow keys, find Windows Classic in the theme gallery, and press enter. Windows 7 will play the sound when you log on, indicating the theme was changed successfully. 3. Close out Personzliation.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Moving Jaws Dictionary items
Hello Dixie, After reading your message, I am not sure if you want to move the entries in your Outlook Express JAWS 10 dictionary file to your JAWS 11 Outlook Express JAWS dictionary file or JAWS 11 Microsoft Outlook JAWS dictionary file. I will give steps for each scenario. Before giving the steps let me remind you that if you want to have the same dictionary entries in Outlook Express in a newer version of JAWS you can do so by using the JAWS merge utility. The merge utility will not only merge your dictionary entries for the given program but also will merge your JAWS configuration files, JAWS graphics files, schemes, sounds, placemarkers and other personalized settings. You don't want to use merge if you are just wanting your JAWS dictionary files for Outlook Express to be merged. If you want to use the merge utility then you can find the merge menu choice in the JAWS interface window and in the utilities menu. REPLACING OUTLOOK EXPRESS.JDF IN JAWS 11 WITH OUTLOOK EXPRESS.JDF IN JAWS 10 There are two places to look for the Outlook Express.JDF file in each version of JAWS. One of these two places is in explore my settings and the other one is in Explore shared settings. You can access each of those through the JAWS program group in the start menu. 1.Use Windows key to activate the Windows start menu. 2. Move focus into the all programs group. In XP you can press the letter P while focus is in the start menu to move to the program groups. If there is only one P in your start menu then focus will go directly into the submenu. If there is more than one P in your start menu then press that letter until you find the programs choice and use right arrow key to go into the submenu. Press J until you find JAWS 10 and use right arrow and then down arrow key into the JAWS 10 choices or press enter key. When the JAWS 10 choice is open press E to get to the explore JAWS choice and press enter key to open that group of icons. Use down arrow and press enter key on the explore my settings choice. If you use Vista or Windows 7 then after pressing Windows key to move into the start menu use the down arrow key to move off of the search box and then press the letter A to find the all programs choice and press enter key. Use down arrow so that focus is off the search box, press J until you get to JAWS 10, press enter key and then press E to get to the explore JAWS choice and press enter key to open the group of icons. Use down arrow key to move to the explore my settings choice and press enter key. 3. Focus will be in a list of files and folders that apply to the current user of Windows. Press the letter O until you find the Outlook Express.JDF file. If you can type fairly quickly then instead of just pressing O try typing O U T L and focus should go directly to the first icon starting with the word outlook. Use down arrow key until you find the Outlook Express.JDF file if there is one in this folder. Listen carefully as there might also be an Outlook Express.JGF file, which is the JAWS graphics file. 4., Press CTRL+C to copy the file to the clipboard. 5. If you found and copied an Outlook Express.JDF file in the explore my settings folder then don't do this step but instead proceed to step 6. If not then look for the file in the explore shared settings folder. Move focus as mentioned above to the JAWS 10 program group and into the explore JAWS settings icons. Use down arrow key past the explore my settings choice to the explore shared settings choice and press enter key. This folder has settings shared among all JAWS users on the Windows system. When the explore shared settings is open find the Outlook Express.JDF file as mentioned above and copy it to the clipboard. 6. Move focus back into the all programs menu but this time instead of going to the JAWS 10 program group press J until you get to JAWS 11. Open JAWS 11 as shown above and then open the explore my settings choice. Paste the Outlook.JDF file into the folder. If Windows tells you that there is already a file with that name and asks you to confirm that you want to overwrite it then do so. 7. Move focus back to the JAWS 11 group and open the explore JAWS choice. Use down arrow key to the explore shared settings icon and press enter key. 8. Use CTRL+V to paste the copied file into this folder and overwrite if asked to by Windows. 9. Close the explore shared settings folder using Alt+f4. The above steps should replace the Outlook Express dictionary file in JAWS 11 with the one in JAWS 10. REPLACING the MICROSOFT OUTLOOK JDF IN JAWS 11 WITH OUTLOOK EXPRESS.JDF IN JAWS 10 1.Start by following steps 1 through and including 5 above. 2. Move focus to the desktop by using Windows key with D and paste the Outlook Express.JDF file to the desktop by using CTRL+V. 3. Browse into the explore my settings and
[JAWS-Users] Letter navigation in messages
Hello I am having a problem with navigation in an e-mail document. In previous versions of JAWS I could use letter navigation to go through Headings, links, paragraphs just as in a web page. Now, with JAWS 11, IE 8 and Windows 7 if I press a letter key it writes in the message field without doing anything to the message. Can I turn on or off something to return to the navigation capability? I have looked through menus with finding anything.

I will give steps for each scenario. Before giving the steps let me remind you that if you want to have the same dictionary entries in Outlook Express in a newer version of JAWS you can do so by using the JAWS merge utility. The merge utility will not only merge your dictionary entries for the given program but also will merge your JAWS configuration files, JAWS graphics files, schemes, sounds, placemarkers and other personalized settings. You don't want to use merge if you are just wanting your JAWS dictionary files for Outlook Express to be merged. If you want to use the merge utility then you can find the merge menu choice in the JAWS interface window and in the utilities menu. REPLACING OUTLOOK EXPRESS.JDF IN JAWS 11 WITH OUTLOOK EXPRESS.JDF IN JAWS 10 There are two places to look for the Outlook Express.JDF file in each version of JAWS. One of these two places is in explore my settings and the other one is in Explore shared settings. You can access each of those through the JAWS program group in the start menu. 1.Use Windows key to activate the Windows start menu. 2. Move focus into the all programs group. In XP you can press the letter P while focus is in the start menu to move to the program groups. If there is only one P in your start menu then focus will go directly into the submenu. If there is more than one P in your start menu then press that letter until you find the programs choice and use right arrow key to go into the submenu. Press J until you find JAWS 10 and use right arrow and then down arrow key into the JAWS 10 choices or press enter key. When the JAWS 10 choice is open press E to get to the explore JAWS choice and press enter key to open that group of icons. Use down arrow and press enter key on the explore my settings choice. If you use Vista or Windows 7 then after pressing Windows key to move into the start menu use the down arrow key to move off of the search box and then press the letter A to find the all programs choice and press enter key. Use down arrow so that focus is off the search box, press J until you get to JAWS 10, press enter key and then press E to get to the explore JAWS choice and press enter key to open the group of icons. Use down arrow key to move to the explore my settings choice and press enter key. 3. Focus will be in a list of files and folders that apply to the current user of Windows. Press the letter O until you find the Outlook Express.JDF file. If you can type fairly quickly then instead of just pressing O try typing O U T L and focus should go directly to the first icon starting with the word outlook. Use down arrow key until you find the Outlook Express.JDF file if there is one in this folder. Listen carefully as there might also be an Outlook Express.JGF file, which is the JAWS graphics file. 4., Press CTRL+C to copy the file to the clipboard. 5. If you found and copied an Outlook Express.JDF file in the explore my settings folder then don't do this step but instead proceed to step 6. If not then look for the file in the explore shared settings folder. Move focus as mentioned above to the JAWS 10 program group and into the explore JAWS settings icons. Use down arrow key past the explore my settings choice to the explore shared settings choice and press enter key. This folder has settings shared among all JAWS users on the Windows system. When the explore shared settings is open find the Outlook Express.JDF file as mentioned above and copy it to the clipboard. 6. Move focus back into the all programs menu but this time instead of going to the JAWS 10 program group press J until you
