[JAWS-Users] Jaws and google chrome!
Hi Tom, as far as I know, google chrome isn’t accessible with jaws, I’ve tried it for the hell of it before, and I’ve gotten rid of it. You’d be better off with mozilla firefox or internet explorer.

Liuda, that’s fine! use what you want, however I’m not dealing with them, as far as I’m concerned, it’s junk, because it’s not accessible for me, so therefore, I use Hitman pro, it does the same thing as SuperAntiSpyware! not only that, it’s accessible with jaws!

[JAWS-Users] ADWCleaner!
Mike B, I downloaded and ran ADWCleaner, just for the hell of it, and the website is a long website, so there’s no way I’d be able to type it in, and the nice thing about it is, that it doesn’t install as a regular program! another words, you don’t half to uninstall it under the control panel, you do it right from the executable. I tried it on my windows 7 machine, whitch is my laptop, and it works perfect. And it didn’t find any threats whatsoever. Thanks for the help! you’re a pro! I’ve got to complement you on that.

[JAWS-Users] The latest version of SuperAntiSpyware!
Hi Broe’s, do any of you guys know if the latest version of SuperAntiSpyware is accessible with jaws? I’ve wrote to them several times, and those idiots give me the run around, by telling me that it’s accessible with jaws because it’s compatible with windows 8, and I told them, that it wasn’t, because back in the year of 2008, when they had version 4.5 or earlier, I purchased a lifetime license, and they just had an update recently For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Hi Mike, thanks for the information, I just tried it out for the hell of it, and it sucks bigtime!

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] iTunes
I am using Jaws 14 and Windows 7, 64 bit and am having the accessibility problems with podcasts just reading button rather than describing the level and podcast information in the prior version. Changing the level to and from the podcast heading to individual podcasts (level 1) is also no longer working with the left and right arrow keys. When hearing button if you hit the F6 key it will read the podcast description. Shift F6 will get you back to the button list where you can up or down arrow, then use F6 again to see where you are. Tedious process at best to navigate but better than nothing. I called Apple last night and they shared that there is no way to revert to the prior version of iTunes. I have emailed accessibil...@apple.com about the problem, as someone kindly suggested and provided the link. Thank you. We'll see what feedback is received. Pending a fix by Apple, if someone could please confirm: 1) Using a prior Restore point to the Release 12 update of iTunes will NOT get one back to the more accessible version. Did I get that right Mike? 2) Blind tunes, which I have not tried, will have the same problems as shared above since it is Jaws scripts based on the resident version of iTunes on my PC Is there another recommended accessible podcast manager Thanks, Bob Boyd --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Sent: Friday, January 09, 2015 1:35 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws not reading the close window icon Hi Jason, Here is a tutorial that explains using the Windows Classic theme Windows Basic theme for Windows7: While helping Barb learn a bit more about the icons at the top right hand corner of most application Windows (Minimize Restore Close), another issue came up. Gene stated he did not have any such icons at the top right hand corner of his windows. I asked Gene if he had ever changed the desktop theme on his Windows7 computer. He stated he had not. I now feel pretty confident I have solved the mystery of the missing icons. (Smile). For any new Windows7 computer users, I strongly, strongly suggest you consider changing your desktop theme from the default to the Windows Classic. By making this change, application windows will begin to feel very much like the older Windows XP windows. I have made this modification as well as other seasoned Windows7 users problem free. No need to worry as this change is not permanent, and you can return back to the Windows7 theme if you feel compelled to do so. When testing my theory I went from Windows Classic, to the default Windows 7 desktop theme, and back to the desktop classic theme hassle free. To determine if you are using the Windows 7 theme simply launch Notepad and Wordpad. Use the Jaws hotkey to read the top of the window (Insert + Numpad 1 (End key). If you do not hear Minimize, Restore, Close or any variation of, it is very likely you too are using the Windows7 Desktop theme. I have typed up the following information to give you and idea of how the Windows Classic desktop theme can be of some benefit to you. The new Windows7 theme is a combination of pictures, colors, and sounds on your computer. It includes a desktop background, a screen saver, a window border color, and a sound scheme. Some Windows7 customized themes can include their own desktop icons and mouse pointers. A drawback of these themes to vision impaired and blind computer users is that these visually stimulating themes take up resources and do not add the same benefits as they would to sighted Windows7 users. The following tutorial will help you make changes that allow for Windows7 to take on the appearance and sounds of the familiar Windows XP classic theme. As an added benefit, these changes will also take the desktop out of the Alt + Tab sequence. We will need to go to the Personalization Dialogue box to make our change from the default Windows7 theme to the classic Windows theme. A little warning is in order. The tutorial below may make changes to your current Windows sound scheme. If you would like to continue using your current sound scheme with all its familiar sounds, make sure to save it or at the very least make a note of its name so you can restore it after the modifications below are made. Here's how to identify your current sound scheme and how to restore it in the event of any mishaps. *Identifying Your Current Sound Scheme 1. Go to the Start menu search box and enter the following: Change system sounds. 2. You will land on the sound scheme you are currently using. Make a note of this particular sound scheme. *Restoring a Sound Scheme 1. If your sound scheme is changed by the steps in the tutorial below, go to the Start menu search box and enter the following: Change system sounds. 2. You will land on a combo box consisting of all of the sound schemes on your computer. 3. Arrow up or down to select your previous sound scheme. 4. This step is very important. Press Shift + Tab twice or until you get to Apply and hit enter. 5. Press Shift + tab to Ok and hit enter. 6. Go back and repeat steps 1 and 2 to verify your sound scheme is indeed the currently running sound scheme. *To Configure the Windows Classic Theme 1. Press the windows key to open the Start menu search box, type the following words and hit enter: Change the theme. Note: you can also simply type the word Theme. 2. You will land directly on the Personalization dialogue box's Theme Gallery. 3. Press down arrow until you get to an item called Windows7 Basic. Right arrow to Windows Classic. Hit the enter key to execute the desired change. 4. Wait a few seconds or until you hear an audio sound effect confirming the completion of this process. I would wait another 2 minutes or so as your computer is making lots of changes and you want to allow lots of time for the process to complete. 5. To confirm the changes have been made correctly repeat steps 1 and 2. When you land on the Theme Gallery make sure it is indeed set to Windows Classic. 6. Press alt F4 to close
Re: [JAWS-Users] having trouble using Jaws to change folder to look in so as to attach a file
Sounds like you need to switch folders to a higher level to find your Resume file, which can be done from the Tree view. I am not sure which version of Windows you have, but in Windows 7, from the Attach File window, you are first left in the file name field. Hitting Shift tab twice puts you into the list of files in your last used directory. I believe this is your Pictures folder. Hitting Shift tab twice more should have you hearing Tree. From the Tree view you can up or down arrow, or use the first letter of the desired foler. JAWS should also announce the level of the folder. The default folder name is typically documents when you are saving from most programs, but could easily have been modified along the way. Hope this helps. I have never used Windows 8 so am not sure if the tab structure is different in that version.

I previously posted this, but it may not have gone through. So, I modified the subject line so as not to hijack the thread. I use a different piece of software than Malware Bytes which is much more effective. It as AdwCleaner and it is totally accessible with Jaws, as well as with other screen readers. I do some tech support, and it cleaned up a client's computer that was seriously infected with spyware including browser hijacks. My wife also tried it on her computer that seemed to freeze occasionally, and it resolved those issues. This is one of the recommended programs for attacking some forms of spyware and malware on BleepingComputer.com. Here is my brief tutorial on its usage: I thought I'd submit a post about an outstanding malware removal program that is extremely accessible. It is called Adwcleaner. I used version 4.106. I tried it about ten days ago on my computer and found a couple things. My wife had an issue with her computer freezing when doing downloads, and she used this program this morning and it corrected the issue. I have a client who had issues with several pieces of spyware such as global updater, groovorio, roboot, and many more that could not be nuked with MalwareBytes or a couple different anti-virus programs. This person had over sixty browser helper objects in Firefox, and these same programs that ran in Internet Explorer were listed in various places in the registry, under program folders and scheduled tasks. It identified over 155 different registry keys, and over thirty folders with malware. Adwcleaner opens with a simple screen layout. Under the actions menu, you first hit the Scan button. It will take a few minutes to scan. On the results screen, there are several tabs. These are tabs for each browser (firefox, Internet explorer, google chrome if you have it), plus tabs for files, folders, registry, scheduled tasks etc. Under each tab, you can tab into the list of items it has identified. If you don't want to clean an item, just uncheck it as you arrow down through the culprits. Once you've reviewed everything, go back to the actions area and hit the Clean button. It will warn you to make sure you've saved data from your other applications as it will close all programs. When it says it will close all programs--believe it! It means it! It closes everything, including your screen-reader. Suggestion: Make sure you have a shortcut installed so you can bring your screen reader back up about ten seconds after it closes. When you bring your screen reader up again, it will tell you it needs to reboot to finish the process. When it reboots, you will be in a notepad log file showing what it was able to remove. The log file will also be saved, along with the quarantine folder, under your root directory. You can download AdwCleaner at https://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1/ Steve Lansing, MI - Original Message - From: LeDon To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Saturday, December 27, 2014 6:15 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Malware bytes Hey there, mike, I have never used malware bytes or anything like it before.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Now Flagging My PC Status As At Risk
Your system is at risk. Maybe not a great deal now but it will be more and more so as time goes on. My favourite analogy: Think of XP as a an old ship and your anti virus as the bilge pump. You can keep upgrading the pump to remove the water coming in but if you dont upgrade the hull then the holes will just keep getting bigger. On 08/04/2014 13:53, Gerald Levy wrote: A few days ago, I posted that the Microsoft Security Essentials icon in the System Tray of my XP PC was reporting its status as potentially unprotected. This morning, after I booted up and checked the System Tray, the MSE icon is now reporting my PC status as At Risk. Here is the message that is displayed on the MSE Home tab: PC status: At risk Support for this operating system has ended, which means Microsoft Security Essentials is no longer supported and your PC is at risk. To make sure your PC stays protected, click the link below to see our end-of-support guidance for operating systems. While it is true that support for XP itself has ended, the XP version of MSE continues to function. I successfully updated the database definitions manually and ran a quick scan to verify this. So if MSE is still working, then my PC is not really At Risk, as the System Tray icon reports, and I can only conclude that this is nothing less than shameless scare mongering on the part of MS. Contrary to the message above,reliable sources claim that support for MSE will continue through July, 2015. So what is really going on? Are any other MSE users who are still running XP also getting the At Risk icon in their System Tray? Gerald ?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and Tapin
Hi Becky. I've been using tapin radio for years and love it. However, you are right about there being no documentation available. I think I saw somewhere that the creator is visually impaired, though you'd think this would encourage him to provide better documentation. In my settings there is a setting for dark mode [gag] that I think will, in some way, make it work better with a screen reader. You can press f1, and get a quick listing of shortcut keys; but you'd better pay attention because it reads them out in one big list. When tapin comes up you are in an edit box. Type something in it, say 80s rock and tab to the search button and press enter. You are presented with a list of stations that have 80s rock in their description somewhere. Hit enter on one of them and you'll be rocking the night away. There's a lot more to it than that. So, if you are interested, send me a private message at rwile...@satx.rr.com and I'll see if I can help. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 15 takes about two minutes to say... jaws for windows is ready.
Jaws sits in the queue of programs waiting to start with your pc. Try thinning out the number of programs that start up, only allow those that you use every day to start with the PC. Run a malware scan as suggested. If you use MS security essentials then uninstall and reinstall it. Do you have any network drives mapped? Windows may be trying to reconnect to these before continuing to start applications? There are lots of reasons and the individual application is rarely the cause.

If JAWS says link I have always just hit enter to access it and go their. Several links on that site now do not work that way. I know the link is active as my wife can click on it with the mouse and it is fine. What I don't understand is why JAWS works well with some links on that page and simply ignores others.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Where to put personalized scripts in JFW 13
Dan That is a cleaner way of doing it. Create your own jss file with the customisations you want then use the jsb in the default script file. You will still need to call the functions in your new file from a script in the default file but it means that recreating the customisations in a different jaws version is much easier.

Re: [JAWS-Users] information about adding to default script files
David Be careful that you do not save that file back to the same location. The safest thing to do is open the script manager then press control+shift+d to open the default script file. When you save and compile it will save to your user setting folder and leave the all user default file untouched. This way if you break something that you cannot put right you only have to delete the default files from your user settings folder and you will have full functionality returned. Overwrite the all users file by mistake and break something then you are reinstalling jaws to get it back.

Regards, Eric Safely Adding Default Scripts Starting with JAWS 12, the default script file makes use of MyExtensions.jsb. MyExtensions.jss includes standard headers, but contains only a couple of stub functions for source code. The purpose of the MyExtensions scripts is to include in the JAWS distribution a script source file that will never contain any Freedom Scientific source code, thus allowing the end user to safely add new custom scripts without the need to make any changes due to a JAWS update. For this reason, new scripts and functions added to MyExtensions and placed in the user settings folder is a safe way to add custom scripts to JAWS. You should be aware, however, that MyExtensions should not be used to overwrite existing scripts or functions. Default scripts and functions do not call down to MyExtensions, so any scripts or functions in MyExtensions that have the same name as those in default or application scripts will never run. Scripts or functions with unique names will run, which is why you can use MyExtensions for added scripts and functions. Because JAWS key map (JKM) files are layered, you can also assign key mappings to your added MyExtensions scripts in default.jkm in your user settings. You can use Keyboard Manager to locate your scripts in MyExtensions by looking under Default scripts and assign keys to your custom scripts. By adding your custom scripts to MyExtensions, and assigning keys in default, you can safely extend JAWS scripts to include your own custom scripts. If you have developed a library of custom functions in a JSB file, you can add it to MyExtensions through the Use statement and it will now be available to you. Just remember to use unique names for scripts or functions added through MyExtensions, and save your modified MyExtensions source and compiled files to your user settings, and you should be able to enjoy your own custom scripts added to JAWS without having to make changes due to JAWS updates. You can also copy your MyExtensions files to new versions of JAWS. Depending on the extent of your script coding, you may want to ensure that your scripts are up-to-date with the latest script innovations, but you won't need to modify your scripts simply because JAWS updated.

Unfortunately not without using jaws 13 and using ocr on every page.
The fact that screenreaders are unable to access the text of the book is
the reason amazon released their own accessible version.
If a screen reader could access the text it would be very easy for
another program to access the text, remove the drm and share illegally.

In particular the Google Reader page. I wanted to share what I'm experiencing and see if it may just be an issue with my machine or if others are dealing with the same problems. I have Google Reader as one of my homepages and when I launch Firefox, Jaws always behaves as though the virtual cursor is turned off. In fact, Jaws will say Application Mode On. In order to get Jaws to work properly, I have to do an insert+z keystroke command and then Jaws will say Application Mode off. I'll then be able to go around the page with no problems. This particular issue only started when upgrading the Firefox 4.0 and is still present with the latest Firefox 4.0.1 update. If while in Firefox and I go back to my Google Reader page, either by clicking on the Reader link from another Google site or through my saved bookmark at least 70% of the time, the Application Mode On issue comes up. I have noticed a marked increase of instances of Mozilla crashing with this latest Jaws release as well. Again, it happns most often while on the Google Reader page and while in Firefox in general. Either when I go to the Google Reader page, close a link that I had opened from Google Reader or simply by just having the page open or refreshing the page with the insert+escape key command. Upwards of 10 times a day. It would happen every now and then with the earlier versions of Jaws 12, but it has become a constant with the latest JFW rlease. I at first thought it was an issue with Firefox or perhaps a rogue add-on, but I have tried disabling add-ons and plug-ins and Firefox was still crashing left and right. When I use an older version of Jaws (11.0) however, Firefox not only never crashes, but the over all responsiveness of the browser and JFW feel over all snappier and better. With JFW 12, using the browser had become painfully slow either through regular navigating from page to page as well as when trying to refresh a page. Seconds would go by before Jaws would be able to speak. Not to mention the crashing problem. Jaws would outright crash much more frequently too. I don't experience the browser crashing issue in IE8, but the over all sluggishness with JFW 12 is present along with using other applications. I at first thought that I had been infected with a virus or other malware, but with the older version of 11.0, my computer is much, much more responsive. I do however experience the Application Mode On issue with JFW 11.0 as well. So maybe it's a Firefox 4.0 thing in regards to this. There are a couple of other problems, but the ones above are what are giving me the most problems. Is anyone else experiencing any of these problems or have any ideas on what may be causing it? Like I said, when using JFW 11.0, a lot of what I mentioned above doesn't happen. All my antivirus and malware stuff is up to date. I was going to shoot an email off to Freedom Scientific, but wanted to get feedback from other Jaws users as well. This is the first time a new Jaws release has given me this much trouble since I don't know when and want to be sure it's perhaps not something on my end.

I need to print a UPS return label in order to return an unwanted shipment to Overstock.com using the UPS tracking number they supplied me. But when I visit the web page from which I am supposed to print the return label, I can't find any sign of it. The page contains instructions for printing the label and returning the shipment, but no sign of the label itself. I was told by an Overstock .com customer service agent that the lable contains a bar code and Overstoc's return address as well as some other information, but even using the JAWS cursor, I can't find anything on this page, not even an unlabeled image or graphic that would suggest the presence of a return lable, which the agent insists is right there on the page. Is this one of those web pages that is simply inaccessible to JAWS? Even so, shouldn't there be some kind of graphic or image to suggest the presence of the return label? Below is the link to the web page in question.

There is a file in the shared script folder called ConfigNames.something in there you can assign various script files to different programs.

I used to use Word 2003 and if I am not wrong the wordprocessor here in Works is very much the same, any ideas? I am currently woriking with the Works database and having some success. My question is can scripts for say Access could be assigned to the works database program or say excel scripts assigned to the works spreadsheet program. I must admit the calendar feature here in works is quite good as well,once you have mastered the way to use it. I appreciate the likes of Excel cannot be compared with the works spreadsheet but if I could get jaws to at least move between cells it would be a great start. At the moment there does not appear to be a way at all for jaws to announce the cell or where you are at all when tabbing or arrowing. Hence I was wondering if Excell scripts could be assigned to the works spreadsheet? I am using Windows seven, jaws 12 and probably the latest works program that comes free with most computers.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with retaining authorisation
The Jaws activation is tied to the hardware of the machine it is installed to. If you have changed a CD/DVD drive or system memory etc this will cause the activatin to be lost. The same thing can happen if for any reason Windows reports your hardware differently, e.g. an update causes something to be recognised differently or even an item inside the computer is starting to fail and isnt detected properly. If reinitialising authorisation doesnt get it just reactivate and fingers crossed you will continue for years again without issue.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws keeps repeating
Could be your screen resolution, if the resolution is very high and the carat is overlapping the character on the screen Jaws will see it as a newly written character when the carat flashes off and repeat it to you each time.
