[JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 font color adjustment
I am still trying to tweak Outlook 2010 with JAWS 14 and Win. 7. My original text is in black and my replies are in blue. On the tab under tools and mail, there are 3 places where the font can be adjusted, but I cannot figure out which one is wrong and where to make it right. These adjustments are impossible to set correctly anyway. Does anybody know how I can fix this problem, since I need black text at all times. This should be the default. Have no idea how I ever came up with the blue. Thanks for all help. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] combo boxes
Louis, have you ascertained from sighted assistance that there are, in fact, text items in the affected combo boxes? (In other words, that they are not blank - with no screen-reader loaded?) The scenario being presented with at least two sepa rate screen readers and at least two separate browsers seems more than coincidental, to be sure. Are you having any other noteworthy issues elsewhere on your computers, such as stuff not displaying correctly? And, not to overlook what seems obvious, are your windows being used maximized? - Original Message - From: Anthony06 anthonywatter...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 1:33 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] combo boxes Hi Flor, Tried using regular IE, tried Insert and Z only difference is that instead of jaws reading blank jaws is completely silent when I hit down arrow.

Tried IE 64 bit with similar result. I only have Jaws 15, but have tried it using NVDA. Have tried the usual restarts and the like. What I find is when I initially enter and ALT down-arrow on the Combo, in Firefox it states read only edit. When I tab away and tab back, it has an entry. Example: Country of residence: random selection: Albania as I arrow down, it continuously repeats Albania. If I tab away and tab back, the country has changed. Example: Denmark. This occurs with both Jaws and NVDA, although I wouldn't be used to working with NVDA. The difficulty is that the form I am attempting to fill in must be completed in a certain number of minutes or it refreshes. I believe it may be a specific type of form, or there is some security feature applicable as I am able to access combo boxes on other sites without difficulty.

Running Jaws 15, with certain sites the combo boxes worked as expected: booking flights for example. However, with other sites, there was no feed-back from the combo boxes at all. Is it possible that certain sites could have moved to a form of flash in the combo boxes? Nothing else occurs. To Jorge, nothing is spoken by Jaws on certain sites.

I have a new verizon router and have it set to the maximum output. It is positioned in the back room on the second floor of an old town house. On the first floor there is spotty coverage as well as the 3rd floor. There is no coverage on the front or back porch. Is there any way that I can extend the range or can I have two routers on the same dsl line?
