Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freeDots
These .xml files are proving to be a nightmare. I believe you'll find the default association is Internet Explorer, which makes little sense for the types of file you're using, any more than it does for the files I am. In my case, a certain supposedly tech-savvy organization disseminates .xml files as text documents, but IE can't read them. I succeeded in changing the file association to MS Word, which partially solved my problem, even though the original format is lost. I spoke to FS about it last week, and the tech support guy sounded doubtful that JAWS can read .xml files at all. Try changing the file association. With any luck, you'll pair the file type with an application that works well for your purposes. I don't know which OS you have. In Win7, go to the Windows edit field, start typing file association, and a list will appear. You want the one under "control panel." -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Josh Kennedy Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2016 5:36 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freeDots I tried opening a music xml file i converted from midi to music xml with muse-score then tried opening the xml file in freedots and it would not open. is muse score xml not compatible with freeDots? -- sent from mozilla thunderbird For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] How to adjust keyboard options in latest Jaws 17
Let me reinforce what both Mike and Maria have said. Windows Update has suddenly become unpredictable, and I also had an inexplicable experience with the character/word key echo feature. Regarding Mike's suggestion for Windows Update, mine is different, but I'd follow his recommendation. Regarding key echo, I found, as Maria posted, that I had to change the setting in the insert-v JAWS quick settings for every application I run. I also made the change Mike described in the insert-6 JAWS settings center, but although it may have confirmed my insert-v settings, it wasn't enough. I'd try to resolve these issues before returning your computer. I'd also keep in mind that the holiday weekend is upon us, so tomorrow will be the last day in four that FS will take you call. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Greg Washington Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2016 10:00 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] How to adjust keyboard options in latest Jaws 17 Mike, Very interesting.

Something else you might try is using quick settings with insert v, going to editing options and choosing character echo. You'd have to do this with each program if it works.

[JAWS-Users] How To Save And Import Contacts Lists In Outlook 2016
Hello, everyone. In the process of re-installing Office 365 and Outlook 2016 to work with my g-mail account on a Windows 7 laptop, my g-mail contacts list has been lost. Fortunately for me, I have the completely updated g-mail contacts list on an older Windows 7 desktop which I also use for home office work. Can someone give me a set of instructions for saving, and then importing that g-mail contacts list from the older PC to the new laptop? I have some older instructions here for Office 2010, but am not sure how well they would work with Outlook 2016 and Office 365. Thank you!

That works temporarily, but to make it permanent there's probably a place in settings. Go to help in the JAWS option then to start-up wizard where you can change it permanently.

Re: [JAWS-Users] checkboxes in word
Kimsan, although I don't have 2016,the following is claimed to work in 2013 and perhaps 2010, and might work in 2016 as well: One way you can do this is to use JAWS key with F5 to list fields and press enter on the one you want to move to in the form. Press the application key (or shift+f10) and look for Properties in the contextual menu. If you open properties there is a group of a couple radio buttons for choosing between whether the checkbox is checked or unchecked.

[JAWS-Users] Microsoft Outlook 2016 instability
Have others experienced the following with the latest version of JAWS 17 and an up to date installation of Windows 10 and Outlook 2016? Outlook unpredictably crashes while composing messages. Sometimes, JAWS slows down while reading text shortly before the crash. Event Viewer shows that the crashes are occurring in outlook.exe, and more specifically in ucrt.dll (the C runtime library). (Look under Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Application for those details). For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] How can I get Word Docs into folders
Roger, I'm afraid this is incorrect. A backslash is needed to separate each folder level. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Roger Crome Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2016 10:46 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] How can I get Word Docs into folders Hi Al, I think that where you may be going wrong is that for the most part, the\ has not been used in regard to file routing. I usually see the / being used instead. For example, JAWS/new folder/file. The backslash, as we remember it, is more commonly used in the background activity.
