[JAWS-Users] JAWS and Onboard sound cards
I'm getting ready to buy a new computer. On previous machines I found it necessary to install a separate sound card to handle JAWS, since the onboard sound cards didn't seem to be adequate. I'm guessing that with the demands of newer computer games manufacturers have upgraded the onboard sound cards built into the mother boards. What is your experience with onboard sound cards? Is there something in particular I should look for in a motherboard? Thanks for your input.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how to return to your last spot in a list of documents in MS word
Another way to do it is to open documetns from Windows Explorer. When you use enter to open the file it will open in Word. If it is not the one you want, you Alt Tab back to Windows Explorer where the highlight is still on the last file you opened Blessings, Tom Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To post to this group, send email to jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [JAWS-Users] wireless earphone/headset
I am using a Bluetooth headset and audio adapter with the Pac Mate, but it would surely work with a desktop too. I'm using the Jabra brand, but I expect others would work as well. The Bluetooth audio adapter plugs into the audio out port and then pairs with the headset.

[JAWS-Users] RE Install problem
Freedom Scientific has told me in the past to uninstall the previous version of JAWS before putting a new version on my computer. This does not affect authorization because that is stored in a different place. If you have authorized a previous version, the new one will be authorized without having to connect to Freedom Scientific. Settings such as speech rate and dictionary changes will need to be reset once the new version is installed Blessings, Tom Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To post to this group, send email to jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[JAWS-Users] RE switching columns in word
There is a command for this, which I don't know, so I don't have a direct answer to your question, but a different approach. If you switch to Normal View, under the View menu, you avoid the necessity of having to switch columns. The word displays your document as if it is all one column. I think this is easier to work with. Page Layout displays the columns on screen, which works fine for sighted persns using a mouse, but there may be other ways to do it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading PDF and Adobe 8
If you are saying Adobe 8 doesn't work with JAWS, I have not found that to be true. I'm using Adobe 8 and have been reading pdf documents without a problem. It's a little difficult to sort out on the website to download Adobe 8. But once you have in downloaded and go through the installation it will offer you options to check that make it work with screen readers. In fact, when I installed it, Adobe recognized that I was using a screen reader. Each time I open a document in Adobe it goes through a process of preparing the document for reading.

[JAWS-Users] Re JAWS and Vista
I'm new to Vista but find that JAWS is working reasonably well. You must download version 8.0127 in orer to make it work. There are some new things about Vista, but many of the keyboard commands are the same, such as Windows +M closes applications and brings you to the desktop Windows +E opens Windows Explorer I'm using Vista and JAWS on a laptop too and it's working quite well so far.

[JAWS-Users] A source for Bibles and other religious stuff for the blind
Friends, My son and I have formed Optasia Ministry to provide free religious materials for blind computer users. It all started when I was looking for an NIV Bible that would run on my Freedom Scientific Pac Mate, and couldn't find a vendor who could promise me it would work. So my son created one, and it also workds well with JAWS on the desk top. We can provide you with a free NIV Bible and lots of other stuff.
