I'm considering asking FS if they would mind placing a download button
for FS cast since I'm the kind of a guy who listens to pod casts at a
time of my own choosing and not really when I fire up my system first
thing in the morning. 

Unless Eric reads this himself before I get around to writing that
message at least. What do some of you out there think about that
suggestion?

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved
from a simpler system that worked perfectly.

I agree, and have only observed this issue among blind computer users. I work 
with sighted computer users, and when they have problems, they ask someone and 
someone helps them. I have never heard some of the snarky comments  that I read 
on these lists, which are supposedly here to provide support.

The list philosophy does seem to be try first, then ask, but this is different. 
Any article you find online, and definitely anything I publish online, contains 
a link to the webpage where each quotation or other documentary support is to 
be found. Why this insistence that blind computer users go to the extra trouble 
of finding a link when someone has already done so? I appreciate Mike B's 
practice of saving us time after he's gone and found FS download links, and in 
the past I've done the same when he hasn't gotten around to it. Time matters.

Hi:

freedomscientific.com

Use H for headings  until you get to:
Software releases:
Down arrow one time to.
Jaws 17 released date today link, press enter.
Follow the information that the F S web site gives you.
A user of the Jaws program needs to know how to use the Freedom Scientific web 
site, its easy .
If everyone keeps giving them the links, they will not learn how to use the 
site themselves.
For a person just starting out, I can see helping them, by emailing them the 
download link off the list.
But I see the same people asking for the Jaws links year after year, this is 
being lazy.
Please learn how to use the freedom scientific web site for your own good.




Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching 
His goal.
Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good 
health.
Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually 
balanced with wealth.
Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where 
God sits.

Re: [JAWS-Users] gwx Control panel
Anna,

If you have difficulty installing the program after saving it, try to
notice when and where the problem arises. You could post the
explanation, and I'm sure someone would have a good answer. I can think
of lots of reasons why you could have difficulty, beginning with the
"save" process to locating the file in the download folder to knowing if
it's an executable file. I don't want to speculate because this post
would get very long.

FYI, it's my understanding that people prefer to save online files
rather than run them for two reasons. Andy gave you one-the ability to
use it again.
The other is that people sometimes encounter problems when running from
an online site. My own practice various according to the website and my
plans.
I will run an Acrobat Reader update from the website because it will be
easy to find again and installation always goes smoothly. However, I
save current JAWS releases because I'll need the current one if I ever
have to do a repair. Also, some JAWS releases have introduced new
problems, and if that happens, I'll want to revert to the previous
version that worked fine.

In general, to do a clean install of an antivirus program you need to
download and run a removal tool from that program's web site. Of course,
they don't want you to remove their product, so they don't make the
process easy. For example, you may have to solve a CAPTCHA to access or

I have found that the update utility from within JAWS works about half the 
time. Do not understand the inconsistency.

For some of us using the update function as intended works just fine and is 
more convenient, only once since introduced did I need the real executable file 
later and that was early in the program.  

Do it the way you want but to insist others do it your way is not helping.  If 
Freedom meant for everyone to grab the executable they would never have given 
us the update option.  I don't recall when it came into life but needing to go 
after the executable in all the upgrades that have been offered in each version 
of JAWS says the update works for many of us.  

Just saying!

Hi,
I always download the new JAWS executable file and save it on my computer and 
external drive. Installing the new .exe file always works better and has less 
problems later. Just updating it usually causes problems later for me. 
Have a great one.

Hi Dacia,

Have you tried rebooting to see if that helps?  If you reboot & your system 
comes up running normally, try downloading J17 using the links I provided 
earlier, & running that update installation file from your computer.  Some 
people have good luck updating with the Jaws updater, & others do not.  Or, 
even with your computer acting weird, if you can download the previously 
mentioned installation executable & running it, that might clear up your 
troubles.
Take care.

Hi, I asked this in a previous email, but thought I'd ask it again here. The
option to update just came on my computer, so I chose to do so. However, it
said that it couldn't update the patch. And I hit OK. Once I did that, my
computer has not let me navigate things. It talks, and will let me hit
letters, but it's not navigating to anything on my computer. Any
suggestions? Should I uninstall it completely and reinstall just the
original Joss 17 cd I got in not do the updates?

This is exactly why I continue to be so disturbed by this entire
scenario.

I can assure you that if the "get windows 10" notification re-appears on
my computer, the Microsoft Accessibility Support line will get another
call from me, and I will not be happy.

I always teach my studednts and my children to choose their battles, but
this is a battle that I feel must be engaged in.

I find it totally un-acceptable not to have the complete and free choice
of whether or not to install an operating system, or any software
program for that matter.  And, to be constantly harassed if you do not
is totally un called-for.

I just got off of the phone with the Microsoft Accessibility support
line.
I can't say that I am as happy as the rest of you have been with the
assistance I received.  Before beginning to remote into my computer, he
tried every way possible to convince me to let him install Windows10.
Maybe he just did not understand English well.  I finally had to ask to
speak to a supervisor or manager, and he then agreed to do what I was
asking.

When he was done, I asked him to review what he had done.  He told me
that he hid the Windows10 installation icon.  I asked how long will the
icon stay hidden and he said for a few days.  I told him that I wanted
it removed completely from my computer and he said that there is no way
to do that, and that I will be happier in a few days if I would call
back and have them install windows10 for me.

So on the positive side , I will not be annoyed by the Windows10 update
window for a few days.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Update On "Get Windows 10" Saga

Hello, everyone.

 

As I stated earlier, despite my best efforts, the "Get Windows 10"
message re-appeared on my home Windows 7 computer once again late this
afternoon.

 

Admittedly, I did not install the GWX control panel program software
that a few had suggested, because I was a little leary of putting new
software on my computer without really knowing what I was doing.

 

Anyway, having spent far too many hours on this needlessly-created
issue so far, I decided to call the Microsoft Accessibility Hotline for
assistance.

 

It turns out that somehow, the "get windows 10" message, and associated
files had been installed on my computer in several different locations.
It took the accessibility specialist a full hour to get everything
properly uninstalled and operating as it should.

 

I couldn't tell for sure, but I even think the accessibility specialist
was getting frustrated at several points.

 

I used this situation as an opportunity to let her know in no uncertain
terms that Microsoft is not making any friends among blind computer
users who are being harassed repeatedly with the "get windows 10"
message, and that I would hope this could somehow be taken into
consideration.

 

I am sure, as someone else pointed out, this complaint and my situation
will not mean diddley to Microsoft.  But, I would urge anyone with this
issue to contact the Accessibility Hotline, rather than trying to go it
alone with only frustration as the end result.

 

At least, this is my suggestion at this time, based on my recent
experience.

I try routing cursors, turning off virtual cursor, left clicking, just
about everything I can think of but the keystroke won't work to get me
to the next page.  I see it a lot on banking sites and on submit or

Due to the configuration of some newer websites with maybe too many

buttons and therefore the inability to complete tasks on these sites
without sighted help?  I truly hope there's an answer and that it's not

I like Brian too. Basically what he offers are bundles of scripts. One
problem with his approach is that whenever there is a new version of
JAWS these scripts are often broken and the user has to wait for him to
update them. His stuff does work, and I do not begrudge him charging for

I use cut and paste for files, but I sometimes run into a situation with

Cut and Paste isn't an option in this case.  When I try to drag .. it
either doesn't do anything or comes back and tells me the object isn't

It's possible that we're mixing upgrades with SMAs. If you fall behind in JAWS

And if you have, I think, the Home version it will update automatically

I think this is probably not so simple any more like it was for XP, 7,
and 8. Even if 10 is to be the last version of Windows, it will be
updated on a faster scale than ever before. This has the potential to
break accessibility in a way that the current version of Jaws, or any
screen reader, may not handle well if left forever on an old version.

this is what FS responded
If you purchased the SMA with the JAWS  screen reading software version 16.0 
release, it will enable you to obtain the next release or the next two releases 
depending on the SMA you purchased. Therefore, if your SMA will allow you to 
obtain the JAWS 17.0 release and the JAWS  18.0 release if this is the 
following release after JAWS 17.0. If you have a SMA for the nenxt release that 
enable you to get JAWS 17, you can’t not use JAWS 17 and use JAWS 18.0 for your 
SMA.

so I guess there are many types of SMAs that can be purchased, you need to ask 
about which one is best for your needs!

Not true.  Somebody on another list reported updating from Windows 7 to
Windows 10 only to  discover that his printer would not work.  He
visited the manufacturer's web site to try to locate Windows 10 drivers
for his model, but could not find any.  And he could not find any
third-party Windows 10 drivers for his particular printer, either.  So
he was forced to roll back to Windows 7, which was a better alternative
than sticking with Windows 10 and throwing his perfectly good printer in
the garbage and having to buy  a new one.  Apparently Windows 7 drivers
may not necessarily be compatible with Windows 10 for some printers and
scanners.  So you cannot assume that just because a printer works with
Windows 7 it will also work with Windows 10.

Hi Gerald,
I have not heard one person complain about their printer or any other
things such as scanners not working when upgrading to w-10.
Any of your products that work in w-7, should work in w-10.
Take your time, and do research about these things yourself.
Don't freak out, or get overly worried about W-10, Seriously, Windows 10
works great with Jaws.
Give it a try! and see for yourself...

Another issue to consider before upgrading to Windows 10 is peripheral
device compatibility.  Are Windows 10 drivers available for your printer
or
scanner?  If not, then you may have to buy a new one and throw out the
old
one even though it still works perfectly well with Windows 7 but may not
work with Windows 10 unless you can find compatible drivers for it.  But
buying a new printer or scanner may also be problematic because many of
them, especially all-in-one models often have display screens whose menu
options are totally inaccessible without sighted assistance.

Can someone send me some steps to be sure I don't accidentally have

I'm currently using Windows 7 and Jaws 16 here.

Hi All,

I received an email from a work colleague that has an attachment. I know
this because outlook tells me there's an attachment as does the text of
the email. But no matter what I do, I can't locate the attachment to
either open or save it. There's no attachment tab and when I explore
with the jaws cursor there is no attachment either at the top or the
bottom of the email.

I've gotten other emails like this and I assume the inaccessibility has
something to do with how the sender attaches the document. But I'm not
certain what method produces this result.

Can anyone help? This attachment is the template for a report I need to
prepare, so it's pretty important that I gain access to it.

Thanks,
Kimber

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Administrative permission

[Baracco, Andrew W]

The disadvantage to doing that is that you are potentially allowing
software such as malware to download and install without you knowing it.
Having yourself as a limited user is less convenient, but it provides an
additional level of security.

Hi Gerald,

Anyone who is concerned about unintentionally installing promotional
software may be interested in trying Unchecky.

http://unchecky.com/

It runs in the background as a service and monitors for recognized
installers.  It then automatically unchecks any checkboxes related to
installing toolbars, browsers, and similar unwanted products.  I've been
using this little gem for over a year & it hasn't let Google Chrome
install yet, when updating CCleaner!

Take care.

Here we go again.  I just installed the latest version of CCleaner,
version 
5.9 using the link on the JAWS Users programs page, and inspected each
page 
of the installation dialog very carefully with the JAWS cursor to locate
any 
surreptitious check boxes for also installing Google Chrome.  I could
not 
find any, so I went ahead and completed the installation of CCleaner.
But 
to my great chagrin, Google Chrome was also installed, anyway, and set
as my 
default browser.  Just out of curiosity, I took a quick look at Chrome
and 
found it to be just as inaccessible with JAWS 15 as it has always been.
So 
I had to use Revo Uninstaller to remove it and then reset IE 11 as my 
default browser.  Has anyone found a foolproof way to prevent Google
Chrome 
from being installed along with CCleaner?  Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] drivers
They might if they come included in Windows, but if they are drivers
that were installed when you installed a device like a printer,and if
they came from the printer manufacturer, you would have to go to the
printer manufacturer's web site, or to some other site that offers
drivers, and download and install updated drivers. When it comes to
drivers, it is best to obtain updates from the manufacturer of the
device that the driver is being used for. If the device is working well,
it is not always necessary to update the driver just because one is

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Problem completing a privacy agreement screen on an HR portal commonly used in job applications

[Baracco, Andrew W]

I do not know about this site in particular, but I have noticed that
JAWS 16 does not always recognize controls such as check boxes.
Generally when you can't get a button to activate, it's because
something further up the page has not been done, like checking a box or
entering certain info. I had this problem with JAWS and IE 11 on the
ESPN fantasy football site, and it turned out that there was a check box
that neither JAWS or Window Eyes was reading, and I had to get a pair of
eyeballs to check it with the mouse.

HRportal commonly used in job applications


Hello all.

 

I realize I rarely post on the JAWS users list, but I'm helping a family
member apply for online jobs and have run into an issue with one of the
big online candidate profile sites that I think could be JAWS related.
The issue is with People Answers.

 

People Answers (http://www.peopleanswers.com) is a Website that
companies use to host online assessments and questionnaires for job
candidates. When I log in to the site to begin a job assessment from an
employer using this portal, I'm forwarded to a page asking me to scroll
through an agreement and click I Agree to except it. When I scroll
through the agreement, JAWS reads, I Agree button unavailable and I
do not agree unavailable. The sighted person I'm working with says the
button is grayed out, and she can't click on I Agree. 

 

I've scrolled through the entire agreement at least three times this
evening using Internet Explorer; I also tried this page under Mozilla
Firefox with the same result. I've had similar issues with this portal
in the past. So far, I've only gotten this button to populate correctly
twice, and both times it's taken me an hour to scroll through the
information on the agreement multiple times.

 

The agreement itself consists of two sections: a privacy statement and
terms of use. Both have separate links to allow you to open and print
the privacy statement and terms of service, then close the page to
return to the application. I've had to open and close the page multiple
times to get the I agree buttons to populate correctly. This evening,
I was unable to do so at all after scrolling to the bottom of the page
at least three times under Internet Explorer 11 and once under Mozilla
Firefox 40. I'm using JAWS 16, build 4350 with a 64-bit PC running
Windows 10.

 

I'd like to know if anyone is familiar with this online job portal and
has any solutions to this.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Chris.

Have you checked your situation as regards lighting? Flatbed scanners
have their own internal lighting, but when using a camera, the room
lighting is important. If you do not have enough light, you can hit
CONTROL-L and that will turn on the camera's own light source.

You may believe it is perfect, I never expected iTunes to cook my

occasionally.

I'd like to see what I wish to see when I open the program instead of
having to tab through a ton of places that I will never use on the
computer, I listen to music using my iPhone and speakers, not the
computer.  I do, however, wish to get most updates on the computer, and
I do wish to have backups in iCloud and on my computer, occasionally,
usually weekly at least and I did prefer to remove applications I was no
longer using the computer, which is now more convoluted than it was.  
If it were not for the syncing capability and the backups, I'd probably
never connect the phone to a computer.  
As to the search capability, it seems broken to me and any time I can
use a real keyboard to type something in I am more satisfied, I can use
the phone but I still prefer a keyboard with good key travel and size.  
Stop treating me like a moron because I don't see things the same way
you do Please!  We should be able to disagree without putting one
another down.

  Personally I don't see any difference in the latest iTunes update, it
is
  still clunky and so far as I can tell there is no way into the app
store
to
  perform a search.  I still have to press way too many tabs, and F6 for
me
  rotates between about three different things, none of which I
generally
want
  to see.
  I use it mostly for backups and until 12 for searches.  I still think
it
  could be improved with keystrokes to get you out of music and into
what
one
  really wants to see, in my case, battery status when phone is plugged
in,
  ability to know if there are updates, info on last backup and ability
to
  perform them, and search like we had in 11 that went directly to the
app
  store and where we could type in a phrase and see reasonable results.
In
  other words, I want my side bar and my apps that show up in a list ...
but
  that is too much to ask, the keep making accessibility worse and more
worse
  in my humble opinion.

  Apple Music also is still as confusing as ever, especially the FOR YOU
tab.
  Makes absolutely no sense and it never seem to remain after you
attempt to
  select what you like or love and never deletes what you do not like.

  Come on Apple, stop breaking things, or leave a help guide to explain

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Audio Pass

And it sucks. You won't even be able to hear games live if the game is
either broadcast nationally, or in your area. You will only be able to
hear games live if they are not broadcast nationally, or if they are out
of your area. Apparently, they folded Audio Pass into a product that
also contains the TV video so you can't just separate out the audio for
a lower price. I think the service costs about $100 per season. Not
good! I hope that at least the NFL won't continue to crack down on radio

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: setting user as Administrator

[Baracco, Andrew W]

Your first tip is well worth considering. As for disabling Flash, it depends on 
what you do. I visit many sites that offer video presentations using flash. 
Also, if you use your PC for online training of any kind, you will need to have 
Flash enabled.

Just a thought.  Kim Komando recommends using a standard user  profile for 
your regular one.  It is safer since no software can be slipped onto your PC 
since doing so requires the administrator password to be entered.  This is 
much safer than using an administrative profile for your regular work.
I am a super cautious computer user and have both Vipre  and  Webroot 
Security on my Win 7 laptop.  Another tip of hers I followed is to turn off 
Flash in IE and Firefox.  Flash has to request permission to run and it is 
very seldom necessary.

Hi Kevin,

If you are running Windows 8.1, tAdding a enew user has to be done by
selecting Settings from the charms bar, then Change PC Settings. Now select
Accounts, and then Other Accounts. Select Add and follow the prompts to
create your new account.

To make the new account the administrator, highlight the account name, and
change the account type from the account type drop down menu.

To remove the old account, highlight the account that you want to remove,
then tab around until you find the Remove button and click this.

All of these steps are done from the Other Accounts window found through the
settings charm as described above. If you have any other questions, just
post them, hth.

I fixed the problem of no system sounds on my desktop by just creating a new
profile, but now I don’t have administrator rights.  how can I set a user as
the admin?  when I’m using the profile with system sounds and I go into
manage users all I see is standard user radio button checked and cancel.when
I go to manage all users all that’s displayed is the profile with the system
sounds and guest the profile without system sounds is not shown!  I want to
delete the existing profile which is the admin and make the one with sound
the admin.  is this possible to do without sighted help?

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Leasey with JAWS

[Baracco, Andrew W]

I agree with these comments, but do not like the idea of paying big
bucks for JAWS and then more money to make JAWS easier to work with.
This bucks the trend of making accessibility cheaper. Now, if it were
NVDA and Leasey that would be a different story.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [JAWS-Users] Leasey with JAWS

Hi,

Leasey is an 'acronym' compiled from: Learn Enable Advance - So Easy.
It's a 
program in two editions: The Basic package, and the Advanced package.
The 
Basic edition is mainly for complete computer beginners. Leasey works
only 
with JAWS. The Leasey Basic package costs more, and does more in that it

speaks additional help dialogue prompts in a female voice . The Advanced

Package adds some additional functionalities to JAWS, and workd from the

keyboard. Thus, the Advanced Package is rather like a set of scripts
that do 
additional things - in Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word, Facebook,
Chicken 
Nugget, Winamp, Foobar2000, and some more programs.

Before you buy, there is an evaluation version the potential user could
try. 
I tried the evaluation of the Advanced package. I decided that Leasey is
not 
for me at least for now. Other users may react more favourably. I happen
to 
believe that one thing the user should be able to do, particularly if
s/he 
is an advanced user, is disable Leasey while running the version of JAWS
it 
was installed in. From my reading of the documentation, one cannot do
that. 
If one does want to disable it, one has to either uninstall it or use a 
version of JAWS that Leasey was not installed into.

Just to reiterate: There are good things about Leasey. But it may not be
for 
all users. It will suit some very well.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Leasey with JAWS

[Baracco, Andrew W]

Keep in mind that because Leasey is based on JAWS scripts, whenever
there is a major JAWS upgrade the program will be broken until he
updates it. This can also happen if the programs that it supports are
upgraded, such as a new version of MS Word, etc. I believe that he
charges for periodic updates, so this will be another ongoing expense.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] This Did Not Happen With the Previous JFW 16.0 build

[Baracco, Andrew W]

This is a known bug that is being discussed on just about every
blindness oriented tech list. It has been reported to FS and folks have
been assured that it will be corrected in the next release. The best
advice for now is to revert to the previous build.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [JAWS-Users] This Did Not Happen With the Previous
JFW 16.0 build

After I installed the latest JFW 16.0.3048 I hear a string like this
when I 
home up to the beginning of a message in Outlook Express:

Edit  mhtml:{4383C9D8-43B0-4FDF-9351-F21AA1964515}mid://0014/

It also speaks when I first tab to the message body from the subject
line. 
This did not happen with the previous JFW 16.0 build, and I checked with
JFW 
15 and it does not happen.

This string is different for each message created whether new from
scratch, 
or as a reply.

Any one else hearing something like this if you use OE in Windows 7?

Hi

When the get windows 10 thing finally showed up in my system tray,  I
ran
the check your PC on a Windows 7 PC.  Besides telling me that some older
versions of JAWS that are installed might not run under Windows 10, it
told
me that Windows Media Center would be uninstalled and that it could not
be
reinstalled in Windows 10.  I have used Windows Media center with a TV
card
on my computer to watch and record live TV for quite a while.  So does
anyone know of another program that can be used to watch and/or record
live
TV shows in Windows 10?  Hopefully, there is an alternative that is more
JAWS friendly than Windows Media center, or at least as accessible with
JAWS
as Windows Media center is, which is not much

Thanks for any suggestions.

Okay, I'm using it with Win 7, so the issue may be that it does not

update. The developer of QWITTER developed a client called Chicken
Nugget that should work with Windows 8. Also, the official Twitter web

is also an accessible web interface offered through www.easychirp.org

Can someone please tell me the name of the JAWS which now allows both

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Opinions: Windows Live Mail or Outlook 2010

[Baracco, Andrew W]

I find WLM to be similar in many respects to OE, but I could say the
same for the Email component of Outlook. OE and Outlook both allow for
first letter navigation when working with folders, WLM does not.

 Hello List,
 I have a friend with basic computer skills who is struggling a bit

 I'm wondering if WLM might be easier for him to use as it appears to

 Thanks in advance for any opinions, experiences, one way or another.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Opinions: Windows Live Mail or Outlook 2010

[Baracco, Andrew W]

If the person is just wanting to do Email at home, WLM is more than up
to the job. However if the person already has MS Office, then he or she
has a choice. I think that the user experience for WLM and the Email
component of outlook is very similar once you get Outlook configured. In
fact, in some respects it is easier. One example is that first letter
navitgation does not work in WLM for navigating among folders or moving
messages among folders, but it does in Outlook. Another advantage is
that you can sync your Outlook Emails with Email on a smart phone or
tablet. I believe that this also works for calendars and contact lists.
One thing that is easier in WLM is to save the senders of Email messages
into your contacts.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: HOME VERSUS PROFESSIONAL VERSION OF JAWS 16

[Baracco, Andrew W]

There is no difference in terms of features. JAWS Professional is meant
for the work or corporate environment. You save money by using Home
because the SMA is less expensive. If you are using JAWS at home, you
should be using the Home version. FS switched many accounts from Pro to
Home in order to save the customers money when renewing their SMAs.

Well, we all know that there is a freeloader mentality among the blind.
This is largely because the blind are often not charged for things that
others have to pay for, such as bus fare, and it goes on from there. I
work hard and earn a decent salary, but there are things I can't afford.
But yet I see blind folks who do not work, and they have all of these

 Hello, everyone.



 As you may remember, I have been having major issues recently with my

 it has basically become unusable with Jaws.



 I originally thought the problem was with Outlook 2010, and, although

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [JAWS-Users] Major Outlook 2010 Problem

Hello, everyone.

 

You may remember that, last week, I posted a quiry to the list regarding
an increasingly sluggish Windows 7 desktop computer with Jaws, to the
point that it became unusable.

 

I originally thought the problem related to some sort of a virus I had
gotten, since it seemed that something in internet explorer was
constantly running.

 

I think that might have been part of the problem, but after taking the
computer to a local computer repair shop, it seems that the biggest
problem is with Outlook 2010.

 

I am  not sure how he found this out, but the computer repair person
indicated that my Outlook data file is unbelievably huge!  It contains
something like 10 gigs of material, and is constantly running, and
trying to refresh itself.

 

I access both my work and personal g-mail accounts via Outlook 2010, and
am very good at deleting e-mails that are no longer of use to me.

 

I also periodically check my all mail folder in my personal g-mail
account to be sure that deleted e-mails are not showing up in there.

 

I guess my question is this:  Should I totally un-install Outlook 2010,
and re-install it again?  Or, is there some way I can correct this issue
with my currrent version of Outlook 2010?

 

My University currently uses Office 365, which I know contains a version
of Outlook, so I'm wondering if that might be another way to go.

 

The computer tech at my local computer repair shop advises me to forget
outlook, and just access my personal g-mail via the g-mail web site, but
I have not had the greatest luck navigating that web site with Jaws 14.
I'm not sure if such an approach would work with my work e-mail account
either.

 

Any wisdom that can be shed on this issue would be appreciated.

 

Thank  you.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] AFB Creates anAccessible Video Player and Makes It
Available As a Free Download

Just the other day I had a problem trying to listen to a video on a web
site. If I can locate the site again I shall give this a whirl.



The American Foundation for the Blind Creates an Accessible Video Player
and 
Makes It Available As a Free Download





NEW YORK (May 5, 2015)-Today, the American Foundation for the Blind
(AFB) 
made its new, accessible HTML5 embedded video player available as a free

download. The AFB Accessible Player makes it easy for people with vision

loss to play videos online, something that can be fraught with
accessibility 
challenges.







People with vision loss need equal access to online videos for school,
work 
and entertainment. People who are blind typically use only a keyboard,
but 
many current video players are designed for mouse only, with no way to 
interact with the controls via the keyboard, said Crista Earl, director
of 
AFB Web Services. Other video players have buttons with unlabeled
images, 
so people using screen readers and people with low vision can't easily
fast 
forward, pause or rewind the video.







The AFB Accessible Player leverages HTML 5 and cascading style sheets
(CSS) 
to allow low-vision users to take advantage of websites' high-contrast
color 
schemes to select the font sizes and colors they find easiest to read.
The 
controls are labeled with text, so they work with any kind of assistive 
technology, such as screen-reading software, braille displays and 
screen-magnification software, as well as a mouse. The video can be
expanded 
to full screen, which is helpful for users with low vision.  It can be
used 
either as an embedded YouTube player or as a standard player, and the
custom 
control layout supports both English and Spanish languages. The player
also 
provides fallback options for older browsers. HTML5 is the standard 
supported by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which provides
enhanced 
functionality for modern websites and helps make the Internet more 
accessible.







AFB's own websites are designed for accessibility, and AFB Tech, AFB's 
technology division, regularly helps businesses to make their online 
presence more user friendly for people with disabilities. Initially, the
AFB



Accessible Player was developed for visitors to the AFB family of
websites, 
but because so many developers are looking for specific solutions to
make 
their websites accessible, AFB made the decision to share the player
online.







This HTML5 player is unlike anything else currently available, and we
feel 
this is a big leap forward for blind and visually impaired users, added

Earl.







As an organization, we are committed to promoting accessibility for
people 
who are blind or visually impaired, said Carl R. Augusto, AFB president
and 
CEO. We encourage developers to download and use this video player.
With 
more than 20 million Americans living with vision loss, a lot of people 
could benefit from wide use of this player.







AFB's new HTML5 player is available for download free of charge at



www.afb.org/player.

tools for the professionals who serve people with vision loss; and
promoting 
independent and healthy living for people with vision loss by providing
them 
and their families with relevant and timely resources. Headquartered in
New 
York, AFB is proud to house the Helen Keller Archives and honor the more

than 40 years that Helen Keller worked tirelessly with AFB.

There is no answer to this issue. Microsoft cannot say why this happens
to some computers, nor can any other technical support group that I have
spoken to about it. The best thing that I found to help the problem is
to get an external hard drive, and move all of my media, documents,
etc., anything that is not required for the computer to operate, to the
external drive. 
This greatly increased the amount of free space on my internal drive,
and let the computer run much smoother with less freezes or other
problems. You can pick up a good external  drive on Amazon or eBay for a
good price, and a
500 GB drive would probably do for most people.

It has become so bad that I have to use another screen reader.  I would
rather use Jaws.  But, it is just too frustrating to use Jaws.

I have read all kinds of reasons for why windows Explorer can lock up.
But there doesn't really seem to be a reasonable fix for this issue.

I would hope by that time that whatever computing devices we are using

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Putting google search on the desktop

[Baracco, Andrew W]

Another way to get to the Google search quickly is to simply make it the
start page in your browser. Then just launch your browser.

Too get google search shortcut, from your desktop to open up in the edit
field, do the following:
1. Go to google.com
2. Arrow down one time from the edit field, which puts you on the google
search button.
3. Press ALT+f
4. Arrow down to send to submenu, press the right arrow one time.
5. Down arrow to short cut to desktop and press enter 6. Now, when you
press enter on this short cut from your desktop, you will be in the
search edit box, just start typing whatever you are looking for and
press enter.
I hope this helps someone...

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] Re: Jaws 16 frequently goes silent

[Baracco, Andrew W]

The 2nd step is not necessary, as when you kill JAWS with the
WIN-INSERT-F4 after the memory dump, it will automatically restart.

Carolyn, try this, if you can get it going at all.  Maneuver over to the
start menu, make sure JAWS is highlighted.  Then use the kill command (I
think it's the equivalent of Win-JAWS-F4) to really clear it out.  Then,
go the desktop (remember, you should now be focused on the JAWS start
command) and load it again.

 Kim, when Jaws goes silent, try one of two things:

 1. Restart Jaws with Insert-WindowsKey+F4 (takes a little time) 2. 
 Press WindowsKey+U; close the window that had opened, after Jaws 
 begins talking.

 Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 16 frequently goes silent

 Recently I began consistently using jaws 16 and I'm seeing some odd 
 behavior which I wonder if anyone can confirm.

 During remote sessions using VPN, jaws 16 frequently goes absolutely 
 silent for minutes at a time. Occasionally speech will return if I 
 wait long enough, but often I have to reboot the computer before I am 
 able to regain speech.

 This same behavior would sometimes occur with older versions of jaws 
 (prior to jaws 15), but then it seemed to be fixed.

 I work from home several days a week, signed on to my desktop at work 
 and these frequent silences are very disruptive, not to mention the 
 reboots. Has anyone else seen this behavior with jaws 16? I intended 
 to report it to FS, but I'm not sure even how to explain it since it 
 seems to happen randomly without regard to what application I may be 
 using at the time.

 Thanks,
 Kim

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] free accessible driver update program

[Baracco, Andrew W]

I have not tried a driver update program in a while, but the ones that I
have tried have either been inaccessible, or have not rendered the
latest driver. Many drivers can be updated from within Windows Device
Manager, or you can always be sure of getting the latest driver by going
to the manufacturer's web site. A little more work, but worth it.
Actually, my philosophy is that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. There
are times when a new driver may improve performance, but often this is
not the case, and sometimes a new driver can actually cause problems.

What's new in this release:



Enhancements in JAWS 16.0.2339 (April 2015)

The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 16 release
on April 9, 2015, and the April 29, 2015 update.

To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page.

JAWS
.For customers who use JAWS 16 and MAGic 13 together, we resolved an
issue that was discovered in the previous update where MAGic's Mouse
Echo feature was not working as expected when JAWS 16 was running.
.Worked with Smarter Balance Testing group in order to make some
adjustments in how JAWS is working with the tests being conducted in
many of the schools throughout the US.
.In addition to detecting math that is rendered using MathJax in
Internet Explorer, JAWS now detects Math content that is directly
included in the HTML of a web page in both Internet Explorer and
Firefox.
.The contents of the Math Viewer are now displayed visually on the
screen.
The Math Viewer is accessed by pressing ENTER when JAWS encounters math
content on a web page. As the equation is navigated using the ARROW
keys, each expression or partial expression is highlighted so a sighted
assistant can easily track visually, what JAWS is speaking.
.Based on customer feedback, JAWS is now much more responsive when
reading long and complex mathematical expressions rendered by MathJax.
.Resolved a reported issue where JAWS was not recognizing math content
in Internet Explorer on Wikipedia when the Wikipedia user account was
set to render math using MathJax.
.Improved how JAWS pronounces various mathematical functions so they are
spoken using more natural language.
.The Technology News from CNET Research It lookup source now works as it
did in JAWS 15, displaying as many as 20 articles.
.If both JAWS and MAGic are running, resolved an issue where pressing
the Text Viewer toggle key on the MAGic Keyboard was not working.
.Resolved reported issues using the Find feature (CTRL+F) in FSReader.
.A customer reported that if focus was in a Windows security dialog and
speech was off, braille was not working as expected and JAWS was
creating several untitled voice profiles. This is now fixed.

Microsoft Excel
.When focused in the Font edit combo box, addressed a reported issue
where the location of the cursor was not being shown in braille.
.Resolved a reported issue where JAWS was not reading the list of column
headers in the Sort dialog box.
.Addressed an issue where information was not being displayed correctly
in braille in certain spreadsheets when the braille mode was set to
Current Row.
.Addressed a reported issue with suggestions in the spell checker not
being read as expected.

Microsoft Internet Explorer
.If you are inside an application region on a web page in both Internet
Explorer and Firefox, it is now necessary to press the PC cursor command
(NUM PAD PLUS) twice quickly to turn off Forms mode and return to the
Virtual PC cursor. This change was made to keep users from inadvertently
leaving Forms mode while interacting with controls inside application
regions which require Forms mode remain active and is similar to having
to press the PC cursor command twice quickly to turn off the Touch
cursor.
.Resolved issues with JAWS reading links and other content on web pages
marked as hidden and not meant to be read by

It's an enterprise level collaboration tool. We use it extensively. It
can be used by a work group or department to say, share calendars, or it
can be used by groups working together to share documents,
presentations, etc. it would allow a work group in L. A., for example,
to collaborate on the development of a webinar with say, a work group in
NY. It is becoming popular with all kinds of large organizations, from
government to private sector companies and corporations.

Discover Technology has found a  solution for users of AT such as JAWS

My issue is the end  user  ends up paying additional monies.  It flies

At least here at the VA the Section 508 office is understaffed and

that their product complies with 508 and often does not do their own

[Baracco, Andrew W]

Isn't their product basically a collection of JAWS scripts?

Okay folks, let's keep this discussion on-topic, as it relates to Jaws.

Good Morning,

Discover Technology has also approached my Federal Department. Due to
funding, only  one of the Agencies has monies to purchase Discover 508.
I
agree it is a  good product and the usability makes life much simpler
for a
person using adaptive technology, but why should additional money be
used to
make a  product accessible?

I  believe the fix is for Microsoft to make their product accessible.

Michelle

Hi,

Our agency is moving to using SharePoint.  We have purchased Discovery
508.
This software installed on computers for staff using JAWS will change
the
interface to make it easier for screen readers. HTH

Hi all,
I never post here, but I joined this list a long time ago. I have a
question. I'm testing the accessibility of a web site on Microsoft Share
Point. I know it isn't completely accessible, but I wanted to know if
there
was anything I could do to accurately test it for accessibility using
Jaws
15. I test for accessibility according to the standards listed in
section
508 of the Federal Rehabilitation act.
I look forward to any suggestions/recommendations you can provide.
Thank you,
Tara

You don't need to type the semicolon. Just hit the ENTER key.

When I want to send an email to more than one recipient I fill in one name in 
the to field and then tab to the CC field.  I start typing in the first name of 
the person and outlook, announced by jaws, completes the entry.  I type in a 
semi-colon and start the next name.  If I don't want anyone else
to see who I'm sending the email to I put all the names in the BCC field.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Sending an email to multiple recipients in Outlook
2010

Hello list,

 

So I would like to send an email to multiple recipients, but am not having 
success with a certain method. I know I can from within a new email message go 
to the to button and look up people to add from my address book, but I find 
that to be too tedious and time consuming. 

I'm trying to add a bunch of people by first pressing the control button and 
then going down my address book with the down arrow and pressing the spacebar 
on those who I wish to email. I guess it would be the command for selecting 
noncontiguous items in a list. Anyway, After I select the people I wish to 
email, I press the control+N command but instead of an email message popping up 
with the previously selected contact emails in the to field, I get the prompt 
to create a new contact.

I've tried different versions of the same. By selecting my contacts then 
tabbing around in the ribbons to select the new mail option and so on, but no 
dice. 

I got this step by step instruction online, but so far, I've had no luck.

Am I somehow missing a step or can someone enlighten me as to how to best do 
this? This is not for distribution lists as I would like to email different 
groupings of people at different times.

 

I'm using Outlook 2010 and the latest Jaws 16.

 

Thank you,.

The TAB key will put you in the next field.

The tab key also does the same thing.
