Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions

I am also going to buy a laptop, that is Lenovo Thinkpad x270. This is
a small laptop of 12.5 inches screen size, and have pretty good
spects. I am not aware of its compatibility with jaws though. But I am
a jaws user and hope jaws will work on it since it has windows 10.

Yes, JAWS's convenient OCR is probably the simplest way of handling this
problem. but I'm wondering why nothing was spoken. Typically, I get an Adobe
dialog asking how I want the PDF file made readable. I click on my choice
and wait. Sometimes the document is read, sometimes I'm told it's "blank." 

Jeff, did you set up Adobe Reader for accessibility? If not, open
Adobe/Acrobat and press control-k. JAWS will verbalize "Accessibility" right
away. Go from there.

I have two laptops. I own an Asus laptop, and it has 8 GB of ram, Bluetooth, it 
is very fast, and I bought it for $250.00. My other laptop is an HP Stream 11, 
and I can hold it in one hand. It only costs $179.00. It has a SSD drive, and I 
use my small External Drive for more space. I love them both, but I would go 
for the Asus, because it is so powerful for the price. I have used it a lot for

Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions

2017-06-14 Thread Annette Carr
Hi Tammy,

I have primarily used Toshiba and Dell.  Others in my house have used HP,
although not with JAWS.  In my opinion, all 3 brands have been very
reliable.  With that said, my husband had a Toshiba and it was nothing but
trouble.

I have used laptops for nearly 30 years.  None of them have had a separate
number pad from the keyboard.  With my very first laptop, I attempted to use
an external number pad, and could never find one that allowed me to execute
JAWS commands.  As a result I have learned to use the embedded number pad,
and have the JAWS Keyboard layout set to Desktop.  Sometimes this does
require interesting finger gymnastics, but it works for me. 

When I'm looking for a new laptop, I look for the one that provides me with
the most up-to-date features for the lowest cost.  Yes, this probably means
that I will spend more money than I want, but I've always gotten 5 plus
years out of my laptops.  I also look for the lightest weight one with a
keyboard that feels right under my fingers, i.e. shape and size of the keys,
spacing between keys, and firmness when activating.  Finally, battery life
is a factor as well.  

With my current Toshiba dinosaur, I've gotten spoiled by a button between
the keyboard and the mouse that allows me to turn the mouse on and off as
needed.  My work Dell laptop requires me to use a keyboard command to turn
the mouse pad on and off, and that is not so bad.  As much as I would love
to say that I can tackle everything and anything on my computer without some
sighted help here and there, that is just not the case.  So being able to
turn the mouse on and off as needed is very convenient.

Many many years ago I bought one of my computers from MicroCenter and their
service was great.  They removed all of the junk and even installed JAWS for
me.  Another family member went there a number of years later and was not
happy with the service.  The last time I checked, their prices were higher
than Best Buy where I've bought the past 2 computers over the past 11 years.
Also with the last 2 purchases, I used the Dell and the Toshiba technical
support.  Both were very good at that time.  The Toshiba tech support
figured out how to turn off the "touch sensitive control panel so that I
could not accidently turn things on and off.  Now with the Microsoft
Disability Support line, you have another source for help.  Although
sometimes having all of these support options can get you in a position
where they each point the finger at the other one to address the problem.

Good luck and let us know what you end up doing.  My current Toshiba is now
six and a half years old, so I'm sure a replacement is not too far around
the corner.

Annette

My most recent personal laptop is an ASUS.  If you are comfortable with
using the JAWS laptop layout, I really enjoy this machine.  It isn't a touch
device but has a great feel on your lap and the weight of the device is so
incredible to feel that such a powerful device is so not heavy.  Most
importantly for me, typing on the keyboard feels solid.

To be clear this machine isn't for everyone.  It has a smaller screen but my
goals were powerful performance in the smallest machine I could find.

I bought it from Amazon originally.  The model I purchased doesn't seem to
be available from Amazon but maybe there is a newer model.

Dell.
Get one with a separate numpad, which means a 15-inch display. Get one off
the shelf. Get one with as much hard drive space as you can afford, and then

double that.

Hello,
I am looking for opinions about laptop brands.  I know there isn't one
perfect answer to this but I do value the opinions and experiences of
others.  I want to purchase a Windows 10 laptop.  Here are my
questions;
1.  Which brand would you recommend? Why?
2.  What brand would you totally avoid? Why??
3.  Since I use Jaws, would it be better to purchase a system off the
shelf or have one custom built?  I have had them custom built before
because I didn't want all of the games and extra unaccessible programs
taking up space.

These will do for a start.
Thanks for your input!

Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions

2017-06-14 Thread Jason White
I use a Lenovo P50S laptop for work that has a keyboard with a numeric keypad.
I know JAWS can be switched to laptop layout, but I prefer having the extra
keys just for use with screen readers. JAWS is fast and responsive on this
laptop with a braille display (Focus 40 Blue) and Vocalizer Expressive speech,
as long as nothing crashes, as some applications unfortunately tend to do.

I recently bought a similar laptop to use at home - a Lenovo P51. I can't
comment yet, as it's still on the way.

I open a PDF document, but I can't figure out how to make it read.

The last released version of Winamp works perfectly well with Windows 10
Professional, 64 bit anniversary edition.  There are some focus issues, but
other than that, it works fine.  I can't speak for the creator's update, but
the above version is compatible.

Are you referring to editing the actual file name, or the meta-data
information?

If the former, does F2 not work for you?

If the latter, are you using alt+3 on the number row, just above your
keyboard?

I use both these methods on a regular basis because iTunes is atrocious for
this kind of stuff.  LOL.

In any case, I think David has the last released version on his Jaws-users
webpage.

Hope this helps.

Hey.
You should download the latest build. It is winamp v 5.666. Go to winamp.com
and you will still find a link to it, if I'm not mistaken.

The programme was installed on my PC by the guy who built it, but he made
some kind of mistake and the programme was not able to save its settings
until I changed some of the permission settings. However, I have since had
to reinstall the programme and never had any such issues again. Just make
sure you are an administrator when you install. There should not be any
other applications installed on your pC with the official install package.
Just install and proceed as normal. You will be better off nowadays setting
default programmes in windows 10 itself rather than trying to get winamp to
do this for you. When the computer asks you to choose a programme to play a
certain type of file, choose winamp from the list and check the box which
says 'always do this", if that's what you want.

I have noticed that for some reason windows 10 likes to minimise winamp
frequently. Alt-w within the programme should fix this and make your main
window "visible" again.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Editing MP3 files

2017-06-14 Thread JM Casey
if something ever stops working properly in Windows 10, too, you can always
run it in compatibility mode. You will have to pick which Windows version
you want to "revert" to, so this may mean experimenting with the settings.

I noticed the focus issues, too, and running in compatibility mode seemed to
help, but I also read that this can cause other issues and that it isn't
really recommended that you do this by people at the Winamp forum.

The last released version of Winamp works perfectly well with Windows 10
Professional, 64 bit anniversary edition.  There are some focus issues, but
other than that, it works fine.  I can't speak for the creator's update, but
the above version is compatible.

Are you referring to editing the actual file name, or the meta-data
information?

If the former, does F2 not work for you?

If the latter, are you using alt+3 on the number row, just above your
keyboard?

I use both these methods on a regular basis because iTunes is atrocious for
this kind of stuff.  LOL.

In any case, I think David has the last released version on his Jaws-users
webpage.

Hope this helps.

Hi, all
Hope someone respond. In the past when I needed to edit a MP3 name, I was
able to do so in WinAmp. However now I am using W10 and Winamp does not work
well with it. I did installed it but did not work. I am using Window Media
Player, VLC to play my music. Can I do so with any of the above? Please let

[JAWS-Users] Received an email with a background image

2017-06-14 Thread Ken Chernack
Hi listers.

I use Windows 7, Jaws 18 and Microsoft Outlook 2010.

I received an email that Jaws will only read the background text in the
email, and

Not the message text that sits on top of the background text (it is a
company logo).

 

Any ideas as to how to read the 'real' text?

Thanks, be well.

Ken

Hello,
I am looking for opinions about laptop brands.  I know there isn't one
perfect answer to this but I do value the opinions and experiences of
others.  I want to purchase a Windows 10 laptop.  Here are my
questions;
1.  Which brand would you recommend? Why?
2.  What brand would you totally avoid? Why??
3.  Since I use Jaws, would it be better to purchase a system off the
shelf or have one custom built?  I have had them custom built before
because I didn't want all of the games and extra unaccessible programs
taking up space.

These will do for a start.
Thanks for your input!

There you will be able to get the last build.

Hey.
You should download the latest build. It is winamp v 5.666. Go to winamp.com
and you will still find a link to it, if I'm not mistaken.

The programme was installed on my PC by the guy who built it, but he made
some kind of mistake and the programme was not able to save its settings
until I changed some of the permission settings. However, I have since had
to reinstall the programme and never had any such issues again. Just make
sure you are an administrator when you install. There should not be any
other applications installed on your pC with the official install package.
Just install and proceed as normal. You will be better off nowadays setting
default programmes in windows 10 itself rather than trying to get winamp to
do this for you. When the computer asks you to choose a programme to play a
certain type of file, choose winamp from the list and check the box which
says 'always do this", if that's what you want.

I have noticed that for some reason windows 10 likes to minimise winamp
frequently. Alt-w within the programme should fix this and make your main
window "visible" again.

Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions

2017-06-14 Thread Steve
I will start by saying it isn't really an option to "customize" a laptop. 
They're not nearly as easy to swap boards  in and out as you can with a 
desktop.


If you don't want to screw around with getting rid of all the unwanted 
software and games that come on most commercial laptops, you can look on the 
Microsoft site for I think they call them certified or something.


Another option is to find a listing on sites like Ebay that advertise a 
clean install of Windows 10 with no other bloatware.


At one time, I would say avoid Acers, they used to have more hardware issues 
andd their support wasn't very good.  That may have changed lately.


Personally, I have used HP for my last few leptops.

The main thing with a laptop is to get some hands-on experience with it. 
Unlike desktops, their keyboard layout and feel can vary quite a bit between 
different brands or models.

Hello,
I am looking for opinions about laptop brands.  I know there isn't one
perfect answer to this but I do value the opinions and experiences of
others.  I want to purchase a Windows 10 laptop.  Here are my
questions;
1.  Which brand would you recommend? Why?
2.  What brand would you totally avoid? Why??
3.  Since I use Jaws, would it be better to purchase a system off the
shelf or have one custom built?  I have had them custom built before
because I didn't want all of the games and extra unaccessible programs
taking up space.

These will do for a start.
Thanks for your input!

It depends on which version of Windows 10.  Prior to the Creator's Update,
version 1703 and above, it is Windows-Enter.  With 1703 and up, it is

Re: [JAWS-Users] Editing MP3 files

2017-06-14 Thread JM Casey
Hello there.
I am using Windows 10, and Winamp works fairly well, though I had some
struggles at first. What problems are you having?

You can probably edit id3 tags with VlC, but I have never tried this.
Nevertheless, VLC is a very functional programme that can do almost anything
you can think of in this area, so if you really can't get winamp working, I
would do some research, play around with it etc. I only use VLC for videos
myself but it's by far the most stable and reliable video player out there.
Some swear by its audio features too, though.

Kindle for PC does read out of the box with JAWS. To find the download page,
search on Google. But note the misspelling in the subject line. It's
"Kindle," with an "i." 
These search terms will get you there, using a colon after the website name
to tell google it is a website:

Hi Justin and list,

Once you install the kindle PC app, you'll need to get the accessible plug
in.  I can get you a link as i have it.  After that, you can hit F1 and get
commands to read.  It doesn't read out of the box, at least it didn't with
Window-Eyes.  Let me know how I can help.  You can also search amazon for
the accessible kindle for PC and get it that way.

[JAWS-Users] Editting MP3 files

2017-06-14 Thread Holger Fiallo



Hi, all
Hope someone respond. In the past when I needed to edit a MP3 name, I was able 
to do so in WinAmp. However now I am using W10 and Winamp does not work well 
with it. I did installed it but did not work. I am using Window Media Player, 
VLC to play my music. Can I do so with any of the above? Please let me know. 
Using current JAWS and W10. Thanks.
