Re: [JAWS-Users] weather underground

[Panagiotis Antonopoulos]

Hi Miriam/all,
I tried this from here in Greece checking for a French town I am speaking at in 
early February. Very good, except that I would like to have the temperature in 
Celsius rather than farenight. Is there a way of doing this?
Kindest regards,
Takis

Hi Miriam,

Go to the Weather Underground site with the link:

http://braille.wunderground.com/cgi-bin

At this point, you will find the necessary instructions for entering your new 
zip code. Then hit the Fast Forecast command, and you will find the weather for 
the desired new location. Good luck, and please feel free to ask any further 
questions  if you have any.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Desktop & Windows 10

[Mike B.]

Hi Net bat, Jason, & David,

Okay, the log-in screen is disabled, but my problem, I now know, is my 
default Jaws choice at start-up!  I thought I had set the computer to 
boot-up using J18, but I must have changed it at some point or another 
because it was starting up with J16, & that is the only Jaws version that 
doesn't go to the desktop at start-up!  Thank you very much for your input.

Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

it will want you to enter your log in password.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Desktop & Windows 10

[Jason White]

My solution (which retains security during the login process) was to
activate Windows Hello and set up fingerprint recognition.

Unfortunately, I had to use Touch cursor to monitor the instructions that
were displayed during the fingerprint enrollment procedure. I think there's
room for a JAWS script (or other modification) to simplify this process.

I have not tried face recognition, as my laptop doesn't appear to support
it. (There's a front-facing camera, apparently, but to support face
recognition, it needs to meet Microsoft's requirements.)

Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox 58 and JAWS compatibility

[JM Casey]

I suppose it's out of the question that this will ever work with JAWS 18 then? 
I know Freedom Scientific/VFO has continued to update it until fairly recently, 
but when is this going to end? I'm not planning to switch to JAWS 2018 any time 
soon as it's not a part of my license. Looks like there's lots of nVDA in my 
future in that case as Firefox is definitely my browser of choice (although 
I've been trying Chrome lately and it's rather impressive, I must admit)

Today Mozilla released Firefox 58, which fixes most of the issues of FF 57 with

looks to make daily use inaccurate.

When the necessary JAWS updates to work well with this Firefox version will be

Re: [JAWS-Users] Facebook Question

[JM Casey]

Yeah, this works, and is ok if you've only liked a few pages. But
m.facebook.com is designed to have barely any text on the screen, for mobile
users. This means you have to keep hitting the "see more" button over and
over and over again until you find the one you want. Not a very efficient
solution, in my opinion. Better to just type in what you are looking for in
the search box, even though in a way it circumvents the way we are told
facebook is supposed to operate.

I use Jaws 18 and m.facebook.com

I press enter on the word profile and then arrow down and press enter on
likes.  Then I press the letter H until I hear web pages.  This is where all
the pages you have liked are located; you can use up and down arrow and
press enter on any of the pages listed.  FYI: If you want to quickly go back
to that list from a web page you clicked on, just press alt + left arrow and
you will be back at that list.

This works well for me because sometimes I forget the exact name of a web
page to type it in search and sometimes I run across FB pages I've liked
that I forgot about.

HI Judy. 
I think I know what you are talking about, and I have come to the conclusion
that m.facebook.com is just kind of broken. The only way I have found to tag
people is to use the "tag friends" option in the "more" section you can open
when making a post. There just does not seem to be any other way to do it.
You might have better luck with the regular facebook site, but I don't blame
you for not wanting to use it as it's quite a bit more cluttered.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Mysterious reset of file associations Win 10

[JM Casey]

Hi.

There are a lot of things I really like about Windows 10, and I still think
I wouldn't voluntarily give it up, but yeah, this is the problem with the
oS, and I know we're not alone. I see articles about this on tech websites
all the time. Microsoft wants Windows to be a service with constant
improvements rather than a stable OS, it seems. The problem is that the OS
is now so complex and involving so many parts that it's really easy to break
stuff, and something that works fine on the majority of systems might break
someone else's. Then MS has to release a patch to fix the previous update,
and the cycle continues, forever. Theoretically the more people use the oS,
the easier it is to spot mistakes and the quicker they will be corrected.
But that still leaves users at a disadvantage, you know?

Hi All,

for Windows 10 to boot to the desktop when starting, & also how to put the
desktop in the, Alt + Tab , order.  Well, I haven't had any luck, & if
anyone knows how to accomplish the above tasks', would you please be kind

accepted.  Thanks much.
Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

Search works fine for me on the Microsoft Exchange account, but not at all on 
my IMAP account - not sure why.

Outlook and other Microsoft programs take advantage of the Windows Search 
infrastructure, so check also the Indexing Options in Control Panel and, if 
everything there is fine too, go to Services to see if the Windows Search 
service is running and set to start automatically.

Hope it helps!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] outlook search;

Good evening all;

I know this subject has been covered before, but it's pertaining to
outllk2016 and search.

one of my client's contacted me today and said, his outlook search stopped 
working.

no matter if he uses, ctrl+e=search, f3=search, or, even use the advance search 
ctrl+shift+f,

each of the above choices yielded zero results,

can anyone give a possible reason why?

 

I did go into the file/options/search, however, everything their seemed to be 
fine.

hope someone can give a fix or perhaps point me in the right direction.

I recall hearing that outlook 2016 has had some issues with the search.

I must confess, I'm using office 2016, I've never experienced this behavior.

 

in advance thanks.

Hi Greg,

You need to select all of your data, including the column headings.
Use your applications key to bring up the context menu.
Select sort.
>From the Sort menu, select custom.

You are now in a dialog box which JAWS does not read well.  Use the tab key
to move around in it.  The most important things you need to find are as
follows:

--The checkbox that indicates whether or not the top row is a headings row
for the columns of data, or if it is actual data.  If you have column
headings, make sure it is checked.

--Tab until you get to a combo box, or maybe it is a list box, for which
column you want to use for sorting.  JAWS can be very uncooperative with
reading the contents.

--There are 2 more combo/list boxes that allow you to set information about
sorting on this column I.E. A-Z, Z-A, ascending, descending, etc.  Depending
on what you want your sort to look like, you may not need to deal with this.
Again, JAWS is not always cooperative with reading this information.

--There should be another set of 3 combo/list boxes that will allow you to
select the second column you want to use for your sort, as well as its
criteria.

I can never remember which column will need to be in the first set of boxes,
verses which one goes in the second set.  You will have to play around with
it.
