[JAWS-Users] can not delete messages in WLM
I hope this part of WLM works to send messages because I can not delete messages from the inbox in WLM. Either I get a windows bell tone or sometimes I get a message to update the inbox.

First, the relevant facts... I'm currently using the latest build of GoldWave and Jaws 12, and the latest GoldWave scripts from the Jaws-Users scripts page. I'm also using Windows XP home edition on a Toshiba laptop. Now the particulars of the case. The file I'm trying to split is just under 6 and a half hours long, this according to Winamp, my BookSense XT and the status line under Windows Explorer. Once loaded into GoldWave, however, GoldWave reports that the file is only 23 minutes and 17 seconds long after doing a control+A to highlight the entire file. I've even attempted to move, both the start and end markers to the end of the file, and playing on from there, but no go. I can't for the life of me understand why I can't get past the 23 minutes and 17 second mark. A few possibly irrelevant facts are that this is an Audible converted file, and though GoldWave states that there's only 23 minutes in the file, when I play the file on my BookSense XT, or in Winamp, the entire file is there at just under six hours and a half. Another possibly irrelevant fact is that when reading the status bar in Windows Explorer, the status line is reading the entire file is there at the 6 and a half hours, but it's stating that it's a quicktime format file, even though the extension is MP3. If anyone has any ideas as to why this is happening, I would appreciate your input. Thanks.

I am using JAWS 11 with XP and IE 8. I was the person who first mentioned configuration manager, html options, links. As far as I can tell, none of those options stop JAWS from saying the word link when you arrow over a link on a web page. There is a control that says, Say link type. From my investigation, this does not stop JAWS from saying link, or visited link, but does stop it from saying mailto link just saying link instead. Flor, I did look at the links list, and I see no option that pertains to the vocalization of the word link when moving over links on a web page. I see that you can choose what types of links, visited, not visited, all, that appear in the list, I see radio buttons for how you can order the links in the list. I see controls for moving to the link. I do not see any controls for saying or not saying link. Possibly I am being too hasty and not investigating closely enough, but I've been through both of those dialogues and have experimented with several controls, but have not found a way to get JAWS to stop saying link while arrowing around a web page. -- Blue skies.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Removing links
If you are using Jaws v12 a better option to avoid hearing links spoken is to invoke scheme Say all text only under say all menu in IE. Use Jaws key v and find the say all option using spacebar cycle through the options until you hear scheme say all text only. When you press enter you will no longer hear links spoken when you use the say all command, unless you read line by line on the page. -Original Message- From: Mike Barbara In Arcadia Sent: Friday, March 18, 2011 7:35 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Removing links Hi Alan; Where does one find this option to hear the click instead of, link?

It is really just a matter of finding the applicable radio button, tabbing to a list of items and selecting one and reading information about it in the next box that you tab to. On my system, I had a quarantined item and some items that were found that I had deleted, so perhaps that is why they showed in the history. I am not sure that the various controls will show if there are no items in the history. If you want to just make sure that your system is being protected then go into the system tray with JAWS key and function key 11 and use down arrow key to find the icon that gives the status for the antivirus protection. You should hear that your system is protected. If you hear that your system is potentially unprotected, it might be that the program wants you to do a scan. You can just tab three times and use the link that simulates a double left mouse button click to bring up the program. Choose to do a quick scan, which only takes a few minutes. When the scan finishes, go back into the notification area using insert and F11 and arrow down. You will likely find that your system is being protected. If by chance you find that there is no icon in your system tray then it might be that the Microsoft anti malware service needs to be allowed to interact with your desktop.

A tech talked me through this, but I am wondering if any of you have seen this. I am using Microsoft security essentials. I also saw the same thing when I had AVG installed. In the Jaws set up procedures, after the computer has restarted, the installation literally stops. I had sighted assistance and found that Windows was saying that some of the files I was trying to install were not compatible with Windows. I entered on the option to install anyway. As I said, a tech from Freedom Scientific walked me through with this, however, since I was trying to move along as quickly as possible, I didn't take note about how to do this. The tech acted as if this was rather normal and knew right away what to do.

I will publicly state why I am refusing to use JAWS. It is Freedom Scientific's attitude towards pricing and their license schemes. Some of us can't or won't afford to buy JAWS, especially if the free one is just as good as JAWS. As for the license scheme, the user is punished to license JAWS on up to three machines. With the free and even other commercial screen readers one can install on as many computers as they have so long as one machine is used at a time, no questions asked. With JAWS, once all three authorizations have been used they would then have to request FS for more keys. Eventually and I will say eventually they will refuse flat and get paranoid about people sharing authorization keys. I understand piracy and all that and I certainly don't commit to any of that stuff however at the same time FS is just asking for money and not caring about the customer. True there is a dongle option, but even they can have their fair share of problems. Now for the technical, I do find the free one to be actually more stable and even works with more applications than JAWS. You may find this shocking but this is true according to my personal experience.
