Subject: [JAWS-Users] question about shopping

Hi, all, like I was complaining about yesterday, I used Chrom and IE for a
website I wanted to purchase something and I could go through and select
things but the "add to bag" button didn't work in  either browser. It is
just maddening. Is there any other way to maybe get the button to work?
Also, is that kind of situation any better for those of you who have later
versions of Jaws? I am using 14. Thanks in advance.  Judy & Libby

I am going crazy with the new formats for websites. I'm using IE 11, win 7,
and jaws 17 latest. If I go to the family history website

Familysearch.org

I get "button menu collapsed, button menu collapsed, button menu collapsed"
ad infinitim.

I've tried enter, alt enter, control enter, left and right mouse buttons and
just arrows and cannot change anything from collapsed. I do get a context
menu with the right mouse button but, it's not helpful. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Karen

Hi to all.
I have both goldwave but not yet installed, but I do have VLC installed.
Would anyone have good step by step instructions for converting m4a files 
to mp3 files?

For we Victor Reader Stream version 2 owners.
VRS will play m4a files in the music bookshelf.
But you can not fast forward or rewind the file.
Plus, it’s looking like when I go to try to play a different audio m4a 
formatted tutorial, it plays only the one file.
So I’d like to listen to Jim’s tutorials on my small VRS unit to be easier 
to follow along.
Until I pick up a couple of USB to nine pen adaptors so that I can have my 
dec-talk express back.

Because everything coming out of the speakers will drive you nuts. SMILES.
So many many thanks.

Hi Jim,
I am leaning towards saying no.
You will know when it's installing, and you should have speech for that, 
up

to the first re-boot of the computer.
You just wait awhile, the computer may reboot several times, and then when
it has settled down, the install can be finished using Narrator.
If I were you, I would wait until some others have gone thru the process 
and


tested the waters for you. lol
I have already looked at the preview, so I probably will not install 
Windows


10 for awhile,
maybe not until Jaws 17 has been released and FS has a handle on the new
system.

It seems to me that if you have Automatic Updates set to download and
install, then Windows 10 will be downloaded.
However, this is an optional update, so you may be given the choice of
installing or not.
Because I like to know what is being installed on my systems, I have
Automatic Updates, set to notify me of updates, but let me choose when to
download and install them.
Windows 10 is a 3gb download, so I want to know when it is being 
downloaded.

For more specific information, folks should consult the Microsoft website
about Windows 10.

JAWS is not ready for windows 10 as of yet, not until 17 rolls out I would 
imagine. I found this out several months ago when I took the technical 
preview for a spin around the block. At this time NVDA works well enough, 
but then again not everything in 10 works yet so I can't say what any 
screen reader is capable of at this point.
