This computer came with Microsoft Office 2013. But no Office program has been run as a demo or activated. I installed the Microsoft Office Word viewer and the Compatibility pack for the Office 2007 system. When I open a Word 2003 or 2007 document in Microsoft Office Word Viewer, the text of the document appears on the screen and can be read using the JAWS cursor. But the PC cursor does not find anything to read at all. So I'm looking for suggestions to make Microsoft Word Viewer work or another alternative. Thanks for the help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Copy Command Doesn't Work
For years now, and several IE versions, I have used Control + L to open the Address and search text box. The web address of whatever page you are on will be in the box by default, and highlighted, so all you have to do is press Control + C to copy the contents from the edit box. Then it can be pasted anywhere that you please.

Re: [JAWS-Users] vipre antivirus
Since the latest update of JAWS 16, vipre 2015 has become more compatible. You must realize that the user interface has changed from what the previous versions were, and it is like learning a new program. You will have to change some of the settings in vipre when you first install it, but all of these settings are accessible. these include setting up the schedule on which you want Vipre to scan your computer, and if you want a full (Threat) scan or a Quick scan. there are also check boxes for things lllike setting the program to handle threats which are detected automatically or not, and some other things, like setting the length of time which passes before Vipre deletes quarantined threats automatically. However, once you have all of this set up, and you do choose to let Vipre take care of the threats without notifying you, then you can pretty much let it go without having to mess around with it. The part that was so inaccessible before, but now is more so, is the Quarantine and the ability to remove threats from your computer manually, but this is now possible since the latest update of JAWS 16. One other thing, I do recommend using a secondary malware software with Vipre, like Malware Bytes. I think I would do this with any antivirus software, it just makes good sense to cover your tracks.

[JAWS-Users] Properly Uninstalling Jaws
Interesting what you can find when you look in the right places, this was taken directly from the help topics in Jaws 13. I couldn't find anything about uninstalling on the FS website, only found that the site is too verbose for my liking. Uninstalling JAWS To uninstall JAWS, do the following: 1.. Press WINDOWS Key to open the Start menu, and then choose All Programs. 2.. Choose the correct JAWS submenu version, and then choose Tools. 3.. Select Uninstall JAWS X, where X is the version number, and then press ENTER. 4.. If the User Access Control dialog box opens, select Continue or Yes to continue. 5.. Choose whether you want to uninstall JAWS only, or uninstall JAWS and all shared components. For more information, see Removing Shared Components. 6.. Choose the Next button and follow the instructions on your screen to uninstall JAWS. Setup provides you with speech during this process and, if you have a Focus or PAC Mate Braille display, allows you to read the screen using braille. Removing Shared Components When you uninstall JAWS, you can choose to remove shared components. This refers to DAISY training materials, video drivers, and other components that are shared between different versions of JAWS, as well as among several other Freedom Scientific products, such as MAGic. If you have another version of JAWS, or other Freedom Scientific products, installed on your computer, it is recommended that you choose not to remove shared components. If you remove them, your other Freedom Scientific products will no longer have all the necessary files. If you have no other Freedom Scientific products or versions of JAWS on your system, it is recommended that you choose to remove the shared components. User Settings When you uninstall JAWS, you are asked if you also want to delete your user settings files. These are configuration files, scripts, and other settings that you have customized or created. If you choose Yes, the files are deleted. If you choose No, the files are retained in one of the following locations: a.. C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\Version Number\Settings\ENU, for Windows Vista or later b.. C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\Version Number\Settings\ENU, for Windows XP Note: If you want to keep any customized or modified script files saved in your user settings folder, it is recommended that you copy those scripts to a folder outside of the JAWS installation folder before uninstalling the program. Note: Shared settings files are always removed. Personal Settings (.jsi) Files Any .jsi files that you created while making changes to certain settings within JAWS are not deleted when you uninstall the program. These .jsi files remain in the JAWS installation folder. Silent Uninstall If you are a network administrator and need to uninstall JAWS silently, do the following: 1.. Press WINDOWS Key+R. 2.. Choose the Browse button. 3.. Navigate to the folder C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific Installation Information, and then select and open the appropriate GUID (Global Unique Identifier). For JAWS, the GUID begins with the digits 356. The digits at the end of the GUID identify the JAWS version number. 4.. Select the file UninstallJAWS.exe and press ENTER. 5.. Focus returns to the Run dialog box. If necessary, press TAB to make sure that focus is in the Open combo box. 6.. Press END and then press the SPACEBAR. 7.. Type one of the following: a.. /Type Silent - Uninstalls JAWS. b.. /Type SilentRemoveShared - Uninstalls JAWS and removes all shared components. 8.. Press ENTER. 9.. If the User Access Control dialog box opens, choose Continue or Yes to continue. 10.. Follow the remaining instructions that appear to uninstall JAWS.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Navigating in Word 2013 documents
Hi RHS, Below are some settings notes I've saved in case I needed to upgrade to Office / Word 2013, maybe they'll help your situation: From: Jim Fettgather There are, in my opinion, a couple of important changes to make in the options section of Office 2013 to have it be more screen reader friendly. To go there, after starting the program, to get to options, press Alt F, then T. You will be presented with options through which you can down arrow, the first one is general. I would uncheck the following two options: Open e-mail attachments and other uneditable files in reading view Show the Start screen when this application starts These are checked by default, and can cause real problems. For example, if you show the start screen, you will be presented with a variety of templates, rather than a blank document. Next, in the Save Section, I would uncheck the following two choices: Don't show the Backstage when opening or saving files Save to Computer by default These are both checked by default, Word wants to save your files to your one drive account, but it makes more sense to me to have files saved in the documents folder. These are personal preferences, but I have sure found that implementing them makes Word a lot easier to use. Hope that helps. Jim From: Jean Menzies via Jfw Just thought I'd share this for those who want to try it. The symptom. I've often found sluggish performance in Word when searching, or when opening a second document. Jaws seems to either not be able to read a screen without refreshing, or, in searching, it would sometimes take two tries to get to the results. Just plain sluggish. In going through settings, I came across an option to Disable Hardware Graphics Acceleration. I checked that and things seem to be much more responsive now. I'll see how the day goes. But if anyone wants to do this, go into Options, Advanced, and the item is in there. If you use the, Alt + G keystroke, you'll get to it much quicker. From what I read on Google, if you change it in one MS program, it should affect all of them. Hey, I don't need graphics anyway. haha. Hope this works. Jean Note From Mike B.: My settings wouldn't stick until I checked the, prompt to update style, checkbox. To get to this checkbox the keystroke is, Alt + Y. http://www.thewindowsclub.com/turn-off-hardware-graphics-acceleration-office-2013 article region start Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013 Microsoft Office 2013 is great software for Windows 8 and I am guessing that quite a few of you may be using it on your system.

[JAWS-Users] jaws and Itunes
I spent two days, well, let's be honest, five days of non-stop learning, and I only learned two things so far lol. How to add just one song and how to sync apps I have in itunes over to my phone. Yes, there is still lots more I should learn but good start so far. Tying it back to jaws, since I don't remember any version before this one, I will say so far it's working well for me. May I ask a question? Can I search for a rington or a song, etc via itunes, or do I need to use the app store, download it there and then sync it, which wouldn't make sense. I guess using itunes, instead of using the app store, can I just do it through itunes, if so, how? I remember the itunes keystrokes briefly that someone posted a while back, CTRL 1 etc, but I no longer have them notes. So, to answer my own question, would I need to go to the itune store? If so, how do I get there is it CTRL 2? Jaws doesn't say nothing for me, when pressing CTRL 2. Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Properly Uninstalling Jaws
Does the help topic talk about how to uninstall jaws with an os that doesn't have an all programs option? I'm not trying to be difficult, just wondering... Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence. Colin Powell -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Rick Justice Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2015 7:29 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Properly Uninstalling Jaws Interesting what you can find when you look in the right places, this was taken directly from the help topics in Jaws 13. I couldn't find anything about uninstalling on the FS website, only found that the site is too verbose for my liking. Uninstalling JAWS To uninstall JAWS, do the following: 1.. Press WINDOWS Key to open the Start menu, and then choose All Programs. 2.. Choose the correct JAWS submenu version, and then choose Tools. 3.. Select Uninstall JAWS X, where X is the version number, and then press ENTER. 4.. If the User Access Control dialog box opens, select Continue or Yes to continue. 5.. Choose whether you want to uninstall JAWS only, or uninstall JAWS and all shared components. For more information, see Removing Shared Components. 6.. Choose the Next button and follow the instructions on your screen to uninstall JAWS. Setup provides you with speech during this process and, if you have a Focus or PAC Mate Braille display, allows you to read the screen using braille. Removing Shared Components When you uninstall JAWS, you can choose to remove shared components. This refers to DAISY training materials, video drivers, and other components that are shared between different versions of JAWS, as well as among several other Freedom Scientific products, such as MAGic. If you have another version of JAWS, or other Freedom Scientific products, installed on your computer, it is recommended that you choose not to remove shared components. If you remove them, your other Freedom Scientific products will no longer have all the necessary files. If you have no other Freedom Scientific products or versions of JAWS on your system, it is recommended that you choose to remove the shared components. User Settings When you uninstall JAWS, you are asked if you also want to delete your user settings files. These are configuration files, scripts, and other settings that you have customized or created. If you choose Yes, the files are deleted. If you choose No, the files are retained in one of the following locations: a.. C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\Version Number\Settings\ENU, for Windows Vista or later b.. C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\Version Number\Settings\ENU, for Windows XP Note: If you want to keep any customized or modified script files saved in your user settings folder, it is recommended that you copy those scripts to a folder outside of the JAWS installation folder before uninstalling the program. Note: Shared settings files are always removed. Personal Settings (.jsi) Files Any .jsi files that you created while making changes to certain settings within JAWS are not deleted when you uninstall the program. These .jsi files remain in the JAWS installation folder. Silent Uninstall If you are a network administrator and need to uninstall JAWS silently, do the following: 1.. Press WINDOWS Key+R. 2.. Choose the Browse button. 3.. Navigate to the folder C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific Installation Information, and then select and open the appropriate GUID (Global Unique Identifier). For JAWS, the GUID begins with the digits 356. The digits at the end of the GUID identify the JAWS version number. 4.. Select the file UninstallJAWS.exe and press ENTER. 5.. Focus returns to the Run dialog box. If necessary, press TAB to make sure that focus is in the Open combo box. 6.. Press END and then press the SPACEBAR. 7.. Type one of the following: a.. /Type Silent - Uninstalls JAWS. b.. /Type SilentRemoveShared - Uninstalls JAWS and removes all shared components. 8.. Press ENTER. 9.. If the User Access Control dialog box opens, choose Continue or Yes to continue. 10.. Follow the remaining instructions that appear to uninstall JAWS.
