Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws losing speech with control+j command in Firefox
Greetings, I am having a somewhat similar issue but only with Jaws 14. I get my newspapers as a html file from talking newspapers and use firefox to read them. I have firefox version 21 here which crashes every time I try to open up the newspaper with Jaws 14. The bizarre thing is that Jaws 10 and 11 work just fine. I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this issue.

While in Firefox, Jaws will lose speech or crash all together when I press the control+j command to check the status of my downloads. This doesnt happen in IE and it doesnt matter if Im either in the process of downloading something or just reviewing the history of downloads. Also, it doesnt matter where Im downloading from. Be it bookshare, Bard, etc. Im using the latest JFW update on a Windows 64 bit machine running the latest Firefox enterprise version (17.0.6) since the regular Firefox is still having problems with flash and Jaws. And yes, I have also experienced this problem with the regular Firefox version. I cant recall whether this crashing/freezing happened before the latest Jaws update, but Im inclined to believe so. I dont have an earlier version of Jaws on this computer either where I can try it out. Anyone else come across this problem?

Re: [JAWS-Users] hot keys
Hi Tom, Hot keys are shortcut keystrokes. For example, I use shortcut keystrokes to open such applications as Internet Explorer, Notepad, MS Word. Using hotkeys / shortcut keystrokes allow you to open the specific application from anywhere in the computer rather than going to the Icon on the desktop or start menu to open them. What operating system are you running? Also, would you like to create shortcut keystrokes from Icons on your desktop or, from applications that don't have Icons / shortcuts on the desktop? Below are steps to create a hotkey / shortcut keystroke from an Icon / shortcut on the desktop: Not knowing what you have on your desktop we'll use the Jaws Icon , I'm pretty sure this 1 is there. 1. Go to your desktop using the keystroke, Windows key + M, if you're not already there. 2. Press the letter, J, until you have Jaws highlighted / selected. 3. Hold down the, Alt key, press enter. This keystroke opens properties for this version of Jaws.When properties opens you'll hear, for example, Jaws 14.0 properties. 4. Tab a couple times until you hear, shortcut keys hotkeys. If there is a shortcut key already assigned it will be announced but, if there isn't jaws will say, none. 5. If there isn't a shortcut keystroke assigned you would like to insert one, you press the keystroke you want to use; for example you want to use, control key + alt key + J. Hold down the control alt keys, press the letter J. doing this inserts this keystroke into the shortcut hotkey field. 6. Use your say line keystroke, Insert key + up arrow, to read what you've inserted to make sure the correct keystroke is there. 7. Tab to the apply button, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar or enter. That's it, you should now have a hotkey for Jaws. HTH Take care.

Hi Tom, You can also creat hotkeys to open folders drives but, you need to have created a shortcut for the folder or drive on the desktop or in the start menu.

[JAWS-Users] Shortcut Keys and Hotkeys
These terms are often used interchangeably, but are technically different. Hotkeys: These keystrokes are typically used in menus and dialogues, and are Windows, or application specific. Familiar hotkeys include Alt + F4, for closing a window in the operating system, or closing an application. Control + C for copying to the Windows clipboard etc, or in a dialogue, like Alt + N for the next button. Shortcut keys: Typically tied to a shortcut, hence the name A shortcut is nothing more than a quick way to a destination, and when a keystroke is tied to it,it is not necessary to locate the shortcut itself from a list. Control + Alt+ J, is a popular shortcut keystroke for starting Jaws. Items that are found on the Desktop and start menu are typically shortcuts, and in many cases can have shortcut keystrokes such as Windows key + E for Windows Explorer,Windows key + R to open the run dialogue etc. Jaws keystrokes typically include the insert, or Jaws key which is one in the same. If you have menu and control help turned on in Jaws, as well as speak access keys, you can hear many hotkeys as you encounter them. Take some time to explore your computer, and use a search engine like Google you can find some pretty cool stuff!

Hotkeys: These keystrokes are typically used in menus and dialogues, and are Windows, or application specific. Familiar hotkeys include Alt + F4, for closing a window in the operating system, or closing an application. Control + C for copying to the Windows clipboard etc, or in a dialogue, like Alt + N for the next button. Shortcut keys: Typically tied to a shortcut, hence the name A shortcut is nothing more than a quick way to a destination, and when a keystroke is tied to it,it is not necessary to locate the shortcut itself from a list. Control + Alt+ J, is a popular shortcut keystroke for starting Jaws. Items that are found on the Desktop and start menu are typically shortcuts, and in many cases can have shortcut keystrokes such as Windows key + E for Windows Explorer,Windows key + R to open the run dialogue etc. Jaws keystrokes typically include the insert, or Jaws key which is one in the same. If you have menu and control help turned on in Jaws, as well as speak access keys, you can hear many hotkeys as you encounter them. Take some time to explore your computer, and use a search engine like Google you can find some pretty cool stuff!
