Re: [JAWS-Users] facebook personal page
I am not quite sure what you are referring to as a Personal Page, as to me, this is the page that I see when I sign into my Facebook account, and also what others see when they visit my page. However, if you mean Pages, then I think I might be able to help you out. A Page can be created by any Facebook member, and it can be about any topic that he or she would like it to be about, within Facebook's Terms and Conditions of course. For instance, I have created a page for a nonprofit organization to which I belong to, and it was very easy to create. I first recommend that no one try to do this from the regular Facebook web site, only use the mobile site: http://m.facebook.com, or the Facebook mobile app either on an iPhone or Android phone. I like using the mobile web site on my computer, simply for the reason that it is faster than trying to enter a lot of information on a phone. When you go to the Facebook web site, you will find just below where the links to your messages, notifications, etc. are listed, and just abouve the search field, a link to Pages. Clicking on this link will bring you to a page where you will have the opportunity to search for a particular page that belongs to someone else, create a new page, or edit an existing page that you manage. Naturally, to create a page, simply click on that link to get started. When creating a new page, you will be presented several edit fields, combo boxes, etc. to format your page as you would like it. First you will give your page a name, then you can enter a short description of what the page is about, this must be brief, as I believe you only have 150 characters or so available to input into this field. A little further down the creation page, you will have the opportunity to enter a broader description of your page and or just tell about yourself or whatever. You will also be given the opportunity to post pictures and important events that might have or will be happening. There are a few other fields that you can fill out, not all are required, and I believe they consist of things like your location and so on. When you are finished setting up your page, at the end of the page creation section, you will find an I agree check box, and a Create Page button. If you have done everything correctly and within Facebook's guidelines, your page will be created. From this point forward, you should visit your page often to update the information posted to it, removing temporary events which have past, adding new pictures, and whatever you would like to do with it. Pages can be a fun way of sharing your information, allowing other people to get a better insight into your life to the extent that you post, and to hear what others think of the things that you have posted there. I hope that this gives you a good picture of how to go about creating a page, and that you find it helpful in creating your own page. Note: If you use a iPhone to create your page, I believe you will find some of the pertinent links in the dock. Please feel free to check out my own page, which as said, was created to promote a nonprofit organization that I am the vice president of, it is called Bayou Region Chapter of Affiliated Blind of Louisiana. The page is relatively new, and does not have many postings yet, but it will give you an example.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how to configure the mail account in Windows live mail?
Try going to your internet search engine, and typing in Server settings for a * email account, where the * is replaced by the actual type of email account that you have, i.e. gmail.com, outlook.com, yahoo.com. You should get some results that tell you the server settings for that type of account.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling the mousepad on a Dell laptop
As an after-thought, some laptops allow this function to be turned off in the BIOS, but this is not only an inaccessible place for JAWS, but not a place for inexperienced users, so you'll need someone who knows exactly what they are doing to check for this.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling the mousepad on a Dell laptop
The method I use to turn off the touchpad on my HP is, I believe, available regardless of what brand of laptop you have, but I could be wrong. The process I use is completely accessible to JAWS. The steps below are for Windows 7 pro edition. 1. Press the windows search key, and enter mouse (without the quotes) into the search box and press enter. This takes me to the mouse properties, which I assume is buried down somewhere in the control panel, and I have no idea how to get to that section other than as described above. 2. In the mouse properties screen, there are several menu tabs, starting on my computer with the buttons tab. Go to the tab on the far right, device settings. The first thing you come to is a box that lists all the available devices that it considers a mouse. On mine, the touchpad shows up as the only one. If you have more than one showing, use the up/down arrow key to select the touchpad. Press tab once, and you will be on the button you have been seeking. That button should say disable. Press on that button, and it should then say enable, because it has just turned off the mouse pad. On my computer, there is also a plop or blurp sound which is the same one I get when I plug in any USB device, or when I insert an SD card into the laptop's slot. Tab to the apply button, then the OK button. That closes the dialog box. To turn the touchpad on, just repeat the above steps, changing that button’s state from “disabled” to “enable.” I suspect the reason that a function key command does not keep the touchpad off is that Windows assumes you just want to disable the touchpad temporarily, so it re-sets the mouse pad “enable button upon re-boot. Windows makes it harder to make that change permanent so that folks don't get stuck with having no mouse at all.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling the mouse pad on a Dell laptop
I've owned two laptops over the years, and both had pads for mouse functions. My remedy was to place a four-by-six notecard over the pad and tape it down on the right. Then when a sighted person needs to use the pad, all you need to do is flip the card back. The tape lasts a long time. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Arianna Calesso Sent: Friday, February 13, 2015 8:43 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Disabling the mousepad on a Dell laptop Does anyone know of a keystroke to disable or shut down the mousepad on a Dell laptop?
