Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with word2003
I'm not sure whether this has been dealt with yet, but your friend's problem is a jaws one, not office 2003. Try unloading and reloading jaws, or use an earlier version. On my work pc, with jaws 11 as default, I need to switch to the only other version available on this pc regularly, even though it's version 8 of jaws, to eliminate this annoying jaws bug.

[JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader X JAWS 12
Dear List, With the above combination, JAWS often goes silent when I open a doc for the first time; and I have to close Adobe and start over. I'm not sure whether Adobe is freezing or whether JAWS is doing so. Perhaps the 'X' in Adobe Reader X stands for experimental ;) Can anyone share experiences or suggestions? Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling In line frames in IE
It would be much safer to disable it on a site by site basis. Many sites only use in-line frames for ads. Other sites might use them for content, especially if it uses some type of server side script. Our local radio station posts all of the School closings on a separate page of their site. It has tons of links with the content somewhere in the middle. The data is displayed in it's own in-line frame. The fastest way to navigate to it is by frame. If you find this to be the exception to the rule, you could make the default to be ignore in-line frames and just enable them for sites you know have valid content in an in-line frame. However, if the default is to ignore in-line frames, How would you ever know? *Don Marang* Vinux Software Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter. -- Dean Kamen On 5/19/2011 7:35 AM, Mohammed Adeel wrote: Hi, JAWS has a setting to turn off in line frames on webpages.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jfw/iTunes and other suggestions?
The only thing about J Tunes is that you get into that cycle of paying for a program, paying for updates, etc. And, whenever there is a JAWS upgrade, J Tunes is broken, and you have to wait for an update. Also I don't like the notion of having to pay for a screen reader, then having to pay for access to a particular program. Could you imagine how expensive it would be if you paid $1000 for a screen reader, then had to pay another $60 or $70 for access to each program you wanted to run. iTunes is a free program, and it shouldn't cost you so much just to access it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Major JFW 12 problems with Firefox
I was having the same problem in Firefox 4 and JAWS11 on Windows7. It didn't matter which page I was on. Sometimes FF would crash immediately, and sometimes it would wait 3 or 4 minutes before crashing. I finally uninstalled Firefox 4 and went back to version 3. All is well now. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of CrisMunoz54 Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2011 3:51 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Major JFW 12 problems with Firefox Hello list, I have been having all sorts of trouble with Firefox and the latest Jaws 12 release. In particular the Google Reader page. I wanted to share what I'm experiencing and see if it may just be an issue with my machine or if others are dealing with the same problems. I have Google Reader as one of my homepages and when I launch Firefox, Jaws always behaves as though the virtual cursor is turned off. In fact, Jaws will say Application Mode On. In order to get Jaws to work properly, I have to do an insert+z keystroke command and then Jaws will say Application Mode off. I'll then be able to go around the page with no problems. This particular issue only started when upgrading the Firefox 4.0 and is still present with the latest Firefox 4.0.1 update. If while in Firefox and I go back to my Google Reader page, either by clicking on the Reader link from another Google site or through my saved bookmark at least 70% of the time, the Application Mode On issue comes up. I have noticed a marked increase of instances of Mozilla crashing with this latest Jaws release as well. Again, it happns most often while on the Google Reader page and while in Firefox in general. Either when I go to the Google Reader page, close a link that I had opened from Google Reader or simply by just having the page open or refreshing the page with the insert+escape key command. Upwards of 10 times a day. It would happen every now and then with the earlier versions of Jaws 12, but it has become a constant with the latest JFW rlease. I at first thought it was an issue with Firefox or perhaps a rogue add-on, but I have tried disabling add-ons and plug-ins and Firefox was still crashing left and right. When I use an older version of Jaws (11.0) however, Firefox not only never crashes, but the over all responsiveness of the browser and JFW feel over all snappier and better. With JFW 12, using the browser had become painfully slow either through regular navigating from page to page as well as when trying to refresh a page. Seconds would go by before Jaws would be able to speak. Not to mention the crashing problem. Jaws would outright crash much more frequently too. I don't experience the browser crashing issue in IE8, but the over all sluggishness with JFW 12 is present along with using other applications. I at first thought that I had been infected with a virus or other malware, but with the older version of 11.0, my computer is much, much more responsive. I do however experience the Application Mode On issue with JFW 11.0 as well. So maybe it's a Firefox 4.0 thing in regards to this. There are a couple of other problems, but the ones above are what are giving me the most problems. Is anyone else experiencing any of these problems or have any ideas on what may be causing it? Like I said, when using JFW 11.0, a lot of what I mentioned above doesn't happen. All my antivirus and malware stuff is up to date. I was going to shoot an email off to Freedom Scientific, but wanted to get feedback from other Jaws users as well. This is the first time a new Jaws release has given me this much trouble since I don't know when and want to be sure it's perhaps not something on my end.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader X JAWS 12
Hi. What has been discovered here is that Jaws is apparently preparing the document in the background. But if you maybe alt tab away from the window, it should come back. It doesn't say it's preparing the document as it used to say in the past. That's just what my fiance and I have come across. If this doesn't work, well at least you can say you've tried. I have no other explanation at this time. Have a good day.

I'm not sure whether Adobe is freezing or whether JAWS is doing so. Perhaps the 'X' in Adobe Reader X stands for experimental ;) Can anyone share experiences or suggestions? Thanks.

[JAWS-Users] questions about JAWS and Windows 7
Hi everyone, Sorry I was not more precise with the subject line. I have a couple of miscellaneous questions regarding migrating to a new machine with Windows 7. Firstly, I am jumping from JAWS 8.0 to 12.0 and assume that I will need to do the authorization prior to a clean install, right? I will not have access to the classic startup or whatever it's called since I am only getting the Home premium version, but are there any configuration changes I should make so that JAWS and Windows will play well together? Also, does the Windows setup include some version of IE or do I have to get this elsewhere, and if so what steps are involved? I also need to decide whether to go with internet Explorer 8 or 9 and office 2007 or 2010 and would like opinions on which email clients people favor, keeping in mind that I'm used to Outlook Express and have had no real chance to work with Windows Mail or Thunderbird and am somewhat leaning away from Outlook. I think those are all the questions for now, but there may be a few others before I'm done, smile. Many thanks for all assistance.

In particular the Google Reader page. I wanted to share what I'm experiencing and see if it may just be an issue with my machine or if others are dealing with the same problems. I have Google Reader as one of my homepages and when I launch Firefox, Jaws always behaves as though the virtual cursor is turned off. In fact, Jaws will say Application Mode On. In order to get Jaws to work properly, I have to do an insert+z keystroke command and then Jaws will say Application Mode off. I'll then be able to go around the page with no problems. This particular issue only started when upgrading the Firefox 4.0 and is still present with the latest Firefox 4.0.1 update. If while in Firefox and I go back to my Google Reader page, either by clicking on the Reader link from another Google site or through my saved bookmark at least 70% of the time, the Application Mode On issue comes up. I have noticed a marked increase of instances of Mozilla crashing with this latest Jaws release as well. Again, it happns most often while on the Google Reader page and while in Firefox in general. Either when I go to the Google Reader page, close a link that I had opened from Google Reader or simply by just having the page open or refreshing the page with the insert+escape key command. Upwards of 10 times a day. It would happen every now and then with the earlier versions of Jaws 12, but it has become a constant with the latest JFW rlease. I at first thought it was an issue with Firefox or perhaps a rogue add-on, but I have tried disabling add-ons and plug-ins and Firefox was still crashing left and right. When I use an older version of Jaws (11.0) however, Firefox not only never crashes, but the over all responsiveness of the browser and JFW feel over all snappier and better. With JFW 12, using the browser had become painfully slow either through regular navigating from page to page as well as when trying to refresh a page. Seconds would go by before Jaws would be able to speak. Not to mention the crashing problem. Jaws would outright crash much more frequently too. I don't experience the browser crashing issue in IE8, but the over all sluggishness with JFW 12 is present along with using other applications. I at first thought that I had been infected with a virus or other malware, but with the older version of 11.0, my computer is much, much more responsive. I do however experience the Application Mode On issue with JFW 11.0 as well. So maybe it's a Firefox 4.0 thing in regards to this. There are a couple of other problems, but the ones above are what are giving me the most problems. Is anyone else experiencing any of these problems or have any ideas on what may be causing it? Like I said, when using JFW 11.0, a lot of what I mentioned above doesn't happen. All my antivirus and malware stuff is up to date. I was going to shoot an email off to Freedom Scientific, but wanted to get feedback from other Jaws users as well. This is the first time a new Jaws release has given me this much trouble since I don't know when and want to be sure it's perhaps not something on my end.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Converting Web Page Content to Excel
Hello Bill, I am using JAWS 12 with IE 9 and Excel 2010. The following works for me, but you will have to try it with Excel 2007 and IE 8 to see if it works for you. 1. Go to the line of text above the HTML data table where JAWS tells you how many rows and columns are in the table. 2. Press JAWS key with V. 3. Press D until you hear the document presentation menu item. 4. Press spacebar until you hear screen layout. 5. Press enter key. 6. Press f8 to select the table. 7. Press CTRL C to copy the selected data to the clipboard. 8. Open Excel. 9. Paste the data. JAWS will read the content of each cell, but you will need to adjust such things as column widths and row heights. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] questions about JAWS and Windows 7
Susan, For me, I will say this. Jaws 12 and windows 7 play well together. As far as settings to change in windows 7, to make jaws work with it, you need do nothing. Jaws 12 is different than jaws 8 was. Jaws will make the setting changes, without you doing anything. d as for IE 8 or 9, I'm guessing that your computer has IE 8 on it, and that's fine. I'd stay with that for awhile, although several of the group are running IE9 now. My thought is to stay with IE8 till all the bugs are out of 9. As for email client, more than likely, your computer has windows live mail on it. I don't like that email client, although, it is free. So, you might be drawn to it because of that. If so, know that it is similar to OE, but not as good. It has from time to time crashed, and sometimes you can't delete or open emails. It doesn't happen too often, but it does indeed happen. I am new to outlook, and have outlook 2007 on my computer, and I do like it a lot. I will admit to not using all of its features, but it only took me a few days to get it set up the way I wanted. If you have it, and it might be that your computer came with a trial version of it, give it a try. I am a convert, and have to say I like it a lot. If I can answer any more questions fire away. My email, should you care to write off list is:jazzpi...@ca.rr.
