Re: [JAWS-Users] Reorder message column in thunderbird using Jaws

[matthew dyer]

Getting drag and drop to work.  I already found it.  Unfortionetly the jaws 
currser does not work.  I just get blank.  Oh well I guess this is a limitation 
of jaws 2018 and windows 10.  I was trying to rearrange the columes in 
thunderbird, could not figure out how to get the touch currser to work wihile 
the mouce button was locked.  All I got was selected and nothing more.

Hi Cuong,

I don't run Thunderbird, but I saved this note just in case.

From: adam morris
Column presentation
Go to the message list.

go to the very top of it with the home key.

enable touch cursor,

now go left until you hear select columns to display... button.

Press enter. This opens the menu allowing you to check and uncheck columns.

If you want to rearrange the columns, go left past that button and you'll find 
the header items like subject and the like. Find the one you want to move,

press the keystroke to lock mouse button, with laptop layout that would be 
shift caps lock num row 8. then left or right to the colum you'd like to place

this before and press the mouse lock toggle again. Note that the columns are 
read in the same order regardless of their actual position when using touch

cursor. You'll have to try to move it, then go back to pc cursor and navigate 
the list of messages to see if you did it. If it fails, try dragging other

columns around the one want to move instead and see if that works. It's a bit 
messy but can be done with a little time and a big dose of patients.

Once you have a folder set up, you may want to assign that folder's column view 
settings to all folders, this is available in that button that says choose

which columns to display near the bottom says something like apply to folder, 
you can apply it to your entire email account that way if you want to.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Still having problems with JAWS speaking at the log on screen

[matthew dyer]

Hi all,

I like most of you  find that jaws either comes up very late or earlier 
depending on rather or not the machine is doing system updates or not.  I guess 
I am more patient then most.  I find that usually jaws will come up how ever it 
takes its good old time.  I have my windows 10 vm set to give me the login 
sound which works but as I said before this could be more of a windows thing 
rather than jaws.  Just my take on the matter.

Hi Ted,

Officially, so to speak, you do have the latest update, but FS / VFO did come 
out with a minor update to fix a couple issues, & will be an official update 
when the next update comes out.  This so called minor / unofficial, so to 
speak, update does not appear on the released updates page, but on a technical 
support page.  Below is the explanation of the update & the download links.

Technical Support - Detail
Short Description
 JAWS(r) 2018 Reading Issues with Windows(r) 10 Universal Apps such as Windows 
Mail and Sticky Notes

Problem

Reading issues have been reported when using JAWS 2018.1712.10 (released in 
December 2017) with  Windows 10 Universal apps.  Here are some examples:

list of 2 items
1. In Windows Mail, JAWS 2018 will not speak the body of an email while 
navigating by character or word.  And JAWS may read a previously opened email 
instead of the current one.
2. In Sticky Notes, JAWS 2018 repeats the character in focus and will not speak 
the text while navigating by character or word.

Dear List:

It was mentioned on the list in one of the many "jaws version confusion"
posts, that the latest jaws version is 2018.1712.54

When I did the control-insert-v from the jaws screen, it said my jaws was
already at the latest update.  Yet, my version is a slightly different
number.  It is 2018.1712.10.400

Respected friends, I have red 5 emails regarding JAWS version confusion.
The matter of fact is that the latest version of JAWS 2018 is not on the
main page of freedomscientific’s main page.
For those of you who are saying that they are using the latest version of
JAWS 2018,
They should check if they are using JAWS 2018.1712.54 which was released on
January 4th 2018?
The latest version of JAWS 2018 which is available on the main page of
freedomscientific’s main page is JAWS 2018.1712.10 which was released on
December 12th 2017.
If you find out that you are using different version of JAWS 2018.1712.54
and if you are encountering the problem in using windows 10 mail app, then
do the following things.
1. Press INSERT+J to open the JAWS menu.
2. Select Help > About and press ENTER.
3. Navigate to “Special Update Code” and press ENTER.
4. Type in the following access code: 957395
5. Press Enter.
6. Navigate to the “OK” button and press ENTER.
7. Restart JAWS 2018.
8. Press INSERT+J to open the JAWS menu.
9. Select Help > Check for Updates.
10. When the “JAWS updates” dialog opens, press the SPACEBAR to select the
JAWS 2018.1712.54 update.
11. Navigate to the “Install” button and press ENTER to perform the update.
Remember one thing if you have repaired your JAWS 2018, then it will not
update and you will have to download the full version of JAWS 2018.1712.54.
For that purpose you need to click:
https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freedomscientific.com%2FSupport%2FTechnicalSupport%2FBulletin%2F1670=02%7C01%7C%7C57dfeb8b4bf64ac28f7308d5601b640b%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C636520593106271473=b1VlvizjSKlla2Zq0G8yRWpHXxe7Nm2a3V5xQaV4P5k%3D=0

Hi,

I think what he is asking is if there are any free email services other than 
gmail and yahoo.  I believe there is something called gmx, but have not used it 
in a while.  There is also something called poste.de, but have not looked at it 
so don’’t really know.  Doing a search for free email services should do the 
trick though and if I come acrosst any myself I will be sure to pass them on..

Re: [JAWS-Users] sign in with jaws.

[Matthew Dyer]

Hi,

Not sure if this would help or not, but here is what I sdo.  When booting up
my windows 190 vm as that is what I am using, I wait for jas to load at the
lock screen then press ctrol this brings up the pin edit box whare I type my
4 digit pin and then the system loads just fine after that.  What happens if
you just tap the control key?  You should get promped for either your
password or pin in either case you should just type in the edit box if
prompted.  If you have it set to use a pin, the last number in your pin will
dismiss the dialog and sign you in.  If you do not have a pin typing your
password should do it after you press enter.

HTH.

Hi Miriam,  The mysterious and annoying behavior you describe also happens to 
me on occasion.  Likewise, I have the latest JAWS 18 with Windows 7 and a
64 bit system.
Short of rebooting the system, applying the hot key sequence I have assigned to 
JAWS 18 will sometimes return speech but it's all guesswork and when the hot 
key fails to return speech, I am forced to restart the system.  Lastly, it 
seems to happen when tabbing away from an open web site but beyond this 
pattern, I remain puzzled by this annoyance.  Mitch

Even after this latest update, Jaws occasionally and unexpectedly goes silent 
when I change from one window to another. Jaws 18, Windows 7 . Office 365, 64

I go to the desktop and wait. Nothing happens. If I press the power  button 
lightly, just before the computer turns off, Jaws starts to talk. But I can't, 
at that point, stop the computer from turning off. It just happened to  me

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Inquiry with an Apology

Good evening everybody.

First of all, I have to apologize if this question was placed previously.
Second, I am running JAWS 17, Windows 10 on a Dell laptop. I sometimes get
messages from Microsoft wanting to check my settings to prepare my laptop
for the next Windows Update. I started to perform the check, but stopped it
to find out if anyone on the list can tell me if the latest update is
compatible with my current version of JAWS. Many thanks in appreciation.

I always have this problem on a computer where I use Windows 10 Pro Insider 
Preview 32-bit builds when I try to download through the JAWS Check for Updates 
dialog. I always have to download the installer directly from Freedom 
Scientific's website.M Moreover, sometimes the setup package does not run when 
I press ENTER on it on the Firefox download library, so I have to manually go 
to the folder in which I downloaded the installer and choose Run as 
Administrator from the context menu.
You say that you're getting this error even by downloading the package 
directly. Despite the summary of the fact that the app can't run on your PC, 
please send us the full explanation given by Windows, readable by pressing 
JAWS+B. When I try to install via Check for Updates, for example, I receive an 
error like “contact with the software publisher to see if there is a version 
for your computer,” identical to the one I get when trying to run a 64-bit 
executable on a 32-bit system or 16-bit exes on 64-bit systems.

wouldn't toggle off an on. What I did to fix it was to g in to the keyboard
manager which I believe is in the utilities menu. You could assign a

Well thanks to the Microsoft Upgrade Assistant, I'm now running:
Windows 10 Home Version 1703 OS Build 15063.13

The upgrade went pretty smoothly. Used the [Control]+[Windows 
Key]+[Enter] shortcut to bring up Narrator immediately during 
installation, so I was able to do the upgrade myself, without any 
sighted assistance.

The only problem I'm encountering has to do with JAWS.

The volume of JAWS periodically goes down then back up again while 
reading any text. It's pretty damn annoying and it's making me regret this.

I highly recommend anyone using JAWS with Windows 10 to wait on FS to 
release an update first, before upgrading to the 
Creator's
 
build. Hopefully they'll take care of the default Windows 10 mail app 
problem too.

Good afternoon Jaws Users list.
If you change your Microsoft account, you will lose your office 365
subscription. You will have to buy it again for your new account. For
example: I decided to make my computer and accounts more organized. I
was using two Microsoft accounts on my computer. Instead, I decided to
make a new Microsoft account, I made it an administrator account.
Warning: after making this new Microsoft account, I deleted the other
accounts. I chose to keep a copy of the old user folders. What
happened after I restarted my computer was the following. No office
365, I went to the Microsoft store and purchased a yearly subscription
to Office 365 this time instead of the month to month subscription for
office 365. Now this is important, when my computer restarted, I had a
brand-new desktop, which included an icon for my old user folders. So,
I had to totally customize all my Windows 10 settings again, and set
up my computer just like a new install of windows 10. With one
exception, I could copy and paste all my old user folders into the new
user folders. Also, I had nothing in my new OneDrive folders. So, I
set up OneDrive, I copied and pasted my stuff from the old OneDrive
folder into the new one. I had to sink my chosen folders to OneDrive,
I had to share a OneDrive link again with my two groups. I had to
download many apps I wanted to use. I had to set some programs back up
again. But for the most part, that was not too hard to do. The one
challenging item for me was to set up Outlook 2016 again from scratch.
No email accounts, no contacts either. The outlook.com account was
easy to do, but the Yahoo Imap account was a pain in the butt to set
up. I kept getting certificate errors. Turns out one of the server
incoming numbers was wrong, and I had a period at the end of one of
the server details. So to make a long story short, I spent several
days setting up my computer after creating a new Microsoft account,
and I had to buy the office 365 subscription again. But all and all,
Jaws is working much better now. I have everything reset to the way I
had things customized on my
W-10 computer before I made the change of my Microsoft account. So in
my opinion, I am happy that I made this change to my Microsoft account.
Everything is working better for me including Jaws. I just wanted you
all to be aware of changing your Microsoft account if you are using an
office 365 subscription. I also called Microsoft and cancelled my old
Office 365 subscription. Just wanted to let you all know what will
happen if you switch Microsoft accounts. Smiles.

When I try looking at the desktop with the Jaws cursor, it will say

What is this and why can't the Jaws cursor properly see the desktop? Oh yeah
and when you try to right click something in the system tray when the Jaws
cursor is acting up, it doesn't work. Only way I've found to fix this is to
completely restart the computer. Restarting Jaws has no effect.

Enhancements in JAWS 18.0.2530 (February 2017)

The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 18 January
2017 release and the February 2017 update.

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

New Support for ElBraille Applications

This update adds JAWS scripts for Keyboard Editor and ElNotes, applications
included specifically on the new ElBraille, a Windows 10 Notetaker from
Elita Group.

The ElBraille is a Windows 10 computer in the shape and size of a
traditional notetaker, and is designed for users who are blind or deaf-blind
and want to stay connected at school, work, or home as well as on the go.
The twenty-first century, take anywhere replacement for the dedicated
notetaker, ElBraille combines the power and flexibility of a modern
mainstream computer running the Windows 10 operating system with JAWS and a
braille display with a full braille keyboard to offer a fully accessible
compact computer. JAWS provides the best screen reader experience with
either Eloquence speech output or the highly responsive and life-like
Vocalizer Expressive Compact voices as well as full braille output. Type
text into documents or perform JAWS and Windows commands right from the
braille display's keyboard using the JAWS BrailleIn feature. Run any Windows
application such as Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Outlook. Use
FSReader to read DAISY books from sources such as Bookshare.org or browse
the internet with Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.
ElBraille also includes a set of specially designed apps for performing
popular actions such as the creation of voice or text notes, listening to
audio content, and more.

The ElNotes application developed by Elita Group is designed to create,
store, and manage text and voice notes on the ElBraille Notetaker. ElNotes
allows a user to quickly create text and voice notes using a set of special
keystrokes and then export them to TXT or MP3 files respectively, if needed.

These
files are saved to a user-specified folder and then are available to be read
and listened to using other ElBraille applications.

The ElBraille Keyboard Editor is designed for adding, modifying, and
removing keystrokes using ElBraille buttons and Focus 14 Blue keys. Users
can assign a keystroke to launch an application, simulate a QWERTY keyboard
shortcut, or perform a JAWS script.

Amazon Kindle App Support

JAWS now supports reading books in Amazon's Kindle for PC app version 1.19
and later. This enables users to access books purchased through the Amazon
Kindle store right on their Windows PC using both speech and braille. Books
can be navigated using all standard reading commands including reading by
character, word, line, paragraph, and continuously with Say All. As JAWS
reads, pages turn automatically so you can enjoy a book without
interruption.

JAWS can only access Kindle books that support Enhanced Typesetting. The
product details for the book on the Amazon web site indicates if Enhanced
Typesetting is enabled. This exposes the necessary information to screen
readers and provides access to the book content.

Tip: Pressing CTRL+HOME or CTRL+END while reading a Kindle book moves to the
top or bottom of the current page instead of the top or bottom of the
document as in other applications. To move to the beginning or end of the
book, you can use the Go to Location dialog box which is accessed using the
Kindle command
CTRL+G.

Google Docs Improvements

To improve the user experience with Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google
Drive, the Virtual Cursor is now turned off by default when focus is in any
of these applications. Since these are basically programs running inside a
browser window with their own sets of keystrokes, turning off the Virtual
Cursor makes it much easier to interact and provides an environment that
feels more like a standard application.

In some situations, the Virtual Cursor will be automatically turned on when
it is needed to review information. For example, pressing CTRL+SLASH in
Google Docs opens a page listing available Google

[matthew dyer]

An example, your jaws might be corrupted or something doesn't read 
correctly.  HTH.  I think this methed has been mentioned on here a few 
times.  Just point this out.  Perhaps thees directions could be placed 
on the jaws users site.

  why would we need to repair jaws?

Hi. I'm writing to explain the new JAWS repair method I learned today from
VFO. Previously, I'd taken the file of the currently running JAWS build, put
it in the C drive, copied the exact wording into a Windows run dialog, etc.
this procedure failed twice for me today. VFO seems to know about this
because when I called, they had me follow the procedure I'll detail below,
and it worked. I don't know why it is different, but somehow it is. So, here
goes.

First, make sure you have the .exe file on your system for the JAWS build
you're running. You can download it from the FS/VFO website.

Unlike before, it doesn't seem to matter where you keep it on your system.

Close all running apps.

Highlight the JAWS .exe file.

Press shift-F10.

Arrow up to "Copy as path." Press enter.

Open the run dialog with Windows key-r.

Press control-v, then spacebar, then / (the forward slash key), then the
word "type", spacebar, and then the word "repair."

Let me try that command line a different way. After pressing control-v
followed by the spacebar, continue with
/type repair

Then press enter.

The process went more smoothly than any JAWS repair I can remember, and it
went all the way to the end.

I hope this is useful.

Hi,

This is for all JFW 18 users, if you use build 15031 this is a problem and if I 
remember rite ms is aware and so the best thing you can do for now is to either 
use NVDA or return to an earlier build.  HTH.

As you say, it is confusing when you are trying to recall what you have done

Hello,

I am using windows 7, Outlook 2010. I have noticed that when I forward an
email, JAWS states the replied flag instead of forwarded. This makes things
confusing when going through previous emails that I have forwarded several
months back. The wrong flag is stated for all emails, not only the ones I
forwarded to my iCloud account recently.

Any way I can fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Matthew

With Outlook closed.
Open the control panel.
Navigate to mail.
After pressing enter a dialog opens.
Use, shift control, to find the data tab.
Here you tab through the buttons and options ,until you land in the list
view.
Here use the up and down arrow keys to find your file.
On my machine JAWS announces jeff.ost, at the end of the file announcement.
Now shift tab back to the delete button and use space bar.
Close this dialog as well as control panel and open Outlook.

Hello;
Not sure if this will help,
But it may be worth giving it a try.


In case you need to troubleshoot Outlook, it is a good idea to load Outlook
without loading any 3rd party Outlook add-ins. This article explains just
how to do it.

Among other culprits, Outlook add-ins are the usual suspect when Outlook
runs slow or triggers unexpected errors. To determine if the installed
add-ins are causing you problems, the easiest thing to do is to start
Outlook with no add-ins.

Outlook command line switch for add-ins

In order to load Outlook without add-ins, you have to exit Outlook and type
the following command in a RUN window or in a Windows command prompt: 

Outlook /safe:3

Please note that, while the above command will cause Outlook to load with no
add-ins, the add-ins are still going to be displayed in the Add-in Manager
window.

As you become more familiar with Windows 10, you will likely appreciate how

you

can launch them from the desktop or elsewhere.

  


Or, at least an obvious way.

  


But as it turns out, all of the applications installed on your PC, including
the universal apps that come with Windows 10 or are downloaded from Windows

Store are accessible from a hidden shell view called Applications.  Once you
open this view in File Explorer, you can create shortcuts for any of them.
Open the Run dialog (Windows+R=run), type in:

shell:AppsFolder

  


and then press enter  to view this folder.

  


apps-folder

  


Find an app you wish to create a shortcut for, right-click  (applications
key, or, shift+f10 and choose Create shortcut from the pop-up menu that
appears.

  


create-shortcut

  


You'll be prompted that the shortcut cannot be placed here, and Windows will
recommend placing it on the desktop instead. Press enter on  Yes. A shortcut
with the name App-Name  Shortcut (Mail Shortcut) will appear on the desktop.
You can leave this as-is, or rename it (I usually remove the word,
Shortcut). And you can of course move the shortcut to any folder as needed.

  


Now, just repeat for all the app shortcuts you need.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws18 beta?

[matthew dyer]

Hi,

I am using the beta and it is working here for the moment.  I have found a
problem which I guess I should report to fs on the report form in outlook
whare outlook 365 crashes once in a while when switching to another folder
and I have to close it and select restart to get the program to runnormally
again until it happens again.  Other than that it wworks fine here,.

David and list, I have been using the JAWS 18 beta for 4 weeks.  Very
snappy.
I urge anyone planning to use the version 18, see the two freedom scientific
podcasts with Jonathan Mosan and Eric Damerie. You can hear about the new
features.  
So far no problems with the beta. Final release should be in two weeks.

Either nobody is using it or nobody is having any problems. I am curious as

It works fine for me since the start. I still have a little sluggishness
going from message to message in live mail 2012, but other than that it
seems fine.

the switch, Thursday will be the day to do so. I personally have used this 
product for years with JAWS, and have never been disappointed. I just 
recently upgraded to the new 2016 version, and received an email notifying

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 17 problem

Hi,

I think that jfw 17 is pretty good.  I do find that sometimes when it cashes
it is a pain.  The only problem is that when this happens, there is no
dialog which would allow you to send an error report to fs so they can be
aware of the crashing.  I though this was the case.

Hi List,

I am new to this list, but I have been using JAWS for Windows since version
3.5.

Since I upgraded to JAWS 17, I am having a problem that I had when I first
installed JAWS 16 last year; that problem got fixed in the first revision of
JAWS 16.

The problem is that JAWS 17keeps crashing without warning when I am using
Outlook 2013, Internet Explorer 11 and Word 2013. Sometimes it comes right
back; other times I have to press Windows m to get JAWS back; still other
times, I have to unload JAWS with Insert F4 and then use my hot key, Control
alt j, to bring JAWS back.

I finally gave up last night and went back to JAWS
16 until this gets fixed.

Any help or insight will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Don

Hello, everyone.

 

I have a question that I hope will not be considered off topic for this
list.

 

I would like to purchase some sort of a Windows tablet to use when
traveling, and for when I don't want to drag my laptop computer around.

 

I am currently using Jaws 16, but plan to upgrade to Jaws 17 at some point,
probably in the next few months.

 

I assume that any windows-based tablet that I might get now will
automatically come with Windows 10 installed, which I'm ok with, since I'll
eventually need to upgrade my other computers to that operating system at
some point.

 

Can anyone give me recommendations and approximate costs of windows tablets
that would have sufficient resources to accommodate Jaws, and basic
Microsoft software such as Microsoft Office, Outlook e-mail, etc.?

 

At one point, I had considered moving to an IPad, but I am quite comfortable
with the Jaws to windows interface, so would prefer to stick with a Windows
tablet if at all possible.

 

Thank you!

Hi Neil,
Good job, I knew you could do it.
Press Windows key+X, the first item is programs and features.
Press enter.
Works the same way as it did in w-7.
Highlight the version of Jaws that you want to uninstall, press enter.
Follow the prompts, keep shared components and shared settings.
Turn narrator on after Jaws is uninstalled with Windows key+Enter.
Press the windows key, up arrow to power, press enter.
Down arrow to restart, press enter.
After a few minutes, press Windows key+enter, to turn narrator on.
Sign-in, use narrator to go to your download folder where you should have
the latest Jaws 16 or 17 already downloaded.
Press enter on the Jaws file, turn narrator off, with, Windows key+enter.
When Jaws finishes installing,
Redo your shortcut keystroke for Jaws.
Redo the Start up on the log-in screen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not kept, all other settings for
Jaws are kept.
No need to restart after the installation of Jaws is complete.
Good luck...

I know you said Alt n to fire up narraotr.
But windows key enter also will fire up narrator.
If we can fire up narrator, why go to the ease of access and then go 
to narrator?
Can't we elimate the middle man and use just the narrator with a new

I hopefully will have a new computer myself here around thanks giving

Hi Wayne,
When you boot the computer, wait a minute or two, to allow the system too
load everything,
then press the Windows key + the Letter U,  to open the "Ease of Access
Center".
Next, press Alt + the letter N, to start Narrator.
Be patient, Narrator may take a few seconds to start talking.
From this point, you should be able to navigate the pre-setup screens 
using

the tab key and arrow keys.
Once you have completed this process, Windows should load the desktop, at
which time you can install Jaws.

HTH,

I'd appreciate any help or advice here.

Hi group,
Freedom Scientific has released a final version of Jaws 16, which fixes some 
w-10 issues.
For example, when typing into the search edit box, now after typing a few 
letters it automatically populates the results list like it should do.
Here is a list of improvements to Jaws 16. 
Enhancements in JAWS 16.0.4463 (October 2015)

The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 16 July 2015 
release and the October 2015 update.

To download the latest release, visit the Downloads page.

list of 16 items
• Resolved reported issues where JAWS would not read the Start menu after 
upgrading to Windows 10.
• Improved JAWS performance with the Windows 10 Search feature which gains 
focus when the WINDOWS Key is pressed to open the Start menu.
• Improved how JAWS works with the Microsoft Dynamics CRM addin for Outlook.
• Addressed a customer reported issue where input fields inside a data table 
were being announced twice when navigated to using TAB in Firefox.
• Resolved a reported issue where JAWS was not detecting changes in content on 
certain web pages in Chrome unless INSERT+ESC was pressed first.
• Resolved an issue with live regions not being automatically read in Chrome.
• Resolved issues with the Time Search and Reuters Top News Stories Research It 
lookup sources not displaying results as expected.
• When performing a Say All in Microsoft Word, addressed a customer reported 
issue where JAWS would continuously read the same line in certain documents.
• In Excel 2013, addressed an issue where JAWS would not read as expected and 
Excel would appear to become unresponsive after moving a row.
• Addressed issues related to sluggishness in Excel.
• The scripts for Microsoft Office 2016 are now properly named so they load as 
expected with JAWS 16.
• This release includes updated drivers from Eurobraille to enable JAWS to work 
with the Esytime display.
• Resolved a customer reported issue where JAWS remote authorization was not 
working as expected when using a timed license.
• Resolved multiple issues using reports received through the Error Reporting 
feature in JAWS.
• Addressed an issue with the Spanish version of JAWS where the wrong Braille 
table was being used after updating, or the Startup Wizard was not completed 
after a full install.
• Addressed issues with JAWS not properly reading Hebrew, even when Windows is 
properly configured to display Hebrew text.

[JAWS-Users] office 2016 and jfw in particurlly outlook

[matthew dyer]

Hi all,

 

I am considering upgrading  from office 2013 to office 2016 since I have an
office 365 subscribtion.  I am using jaws 17 latest beta.  Is there anything
I should be aware of when doing so as far as accessibility goes?  Anyone
here using it with jfw and how is it working for  you?  I have not heard
anything good or bad so guessing that everything is ok.

 

Thanks.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 17 beta!

Hi.

My experience with jaws 17 have been such that I'm glad this is still a 
public beta only. Try using 17 with a touch screen on a tablet computer, 
my atom 1.8ghz quad core asus t100 is sluggish in quite a few places not 
the least of which is skype for desktop. Try moving up and down your 
contacts, if you're lucky JAWS will only be sluggish and keep talking 
and focusing new items for several seconds after you take the finger off 
the screen, but I've had plenty of jaws crash and restart, or jaws 
shutdowns happen to me, the shutdowns are nasty because I have to 
connect the keyboard dock long enough to use buttons to start jaws again.

While my t100 isn't exactly a speed demon, it does actually run pretty 
good, and it did ok with jaws 16. I think this ought to be fixable given 
that fact. I don't know if it has anything to do with extra code in use 
to play the tick sounds when touching no man's land or what.

With the touch keyboard, if you put it in numbers mode and slide a 
finger over to the number pad, you get extreme sluggishness or crash and 
hopefully restarts of jaws. I duplicated this numerous times with my 
asus t100 running windows 10 (see specs above) and my 3ghz core i7 
hozwell lenovo yoga 2 pro with 8gb ram running windows 8.1.

Also, the touch keyboard is pretty dangerous on the t100 while trying to 
type someone a skype chat, because if you accidentally touch above the 
keyboard jaws will at least freeze temporarily, if not just crash and 
again HOPEFULLY restart. I say hopefully there because it doesn't always 
start up again, it just closes and you have to connect a keyboard or go 
back into laptop mode long enough to press the buttons you need to start 
jaws again.

The touch keyboard is a lot better, but the touch screen support right 
now feels really gimmicky, 16 didn't have as many touch screen usability 
features but it is far more responsive and stable.

My last issue is with smart navigation. If you have a page that uses a 
list of links but they're all laid out horizontally on screen even 
though they are indeed an html list, jaws insists on putting them in a 
vertical layout. You can reproduce this on freedomscientific.com near 
the top of the page with the navigation menu that contains items like 
home, products, services, downloads, support, dealer locator and shop. 
According to the jaws cursor (yes I really mean the jaws cursor), this 
is a horizontal list, a bar of links that span the top of the website, 
kind of looks like a menu bar. With the virtual pc cursor while you've 
got smart navigation turned on, this appears to be a vertical list.

I have reported all of these concerns to fs via the 17 beta report form, 
but as that form is crazily short on the edit boxes limiting the input 
to too few characters to say all that I have to say, I wondered if there 
was a chance I'd get Erick's or someone's attention on here, especially 
if anyone else wants to confirm my findings, perhaps by duplicating my 
problem reports via the beta report form at least.

I think the touch screen issues are likely fixable as jaws 16 is much 
better. Oh also, is anyone else finding web browsing to be more sluggish 
in internet explorer 11? Smart navigation is of course on, for elements 
and tables.

Hi

I can't speak for Outlook 2013, but if you have a non-Gmail account, another
way to receive messages you send to an email list using the Gmail account is
to set up your Gmail account to use the outgoing server from your non-Gmail
account.  You'll have to specify the user name and password for the outgoing
non-Gmail account.  I like this method better because with the recent-colon
method, you receive a copy of every email you send via the Gmail account.

The question has arisen about configuring a Gmail account to receive your
own messages posted to a mailing list. I was under the impression the fix is
still the same as it was for several years placing the word recent with a
Colon after that before the account name on the server tab. 

I must admit that I don't have 2013 although with some stumbling around am
able to figure things out when needed. I tried the fix mentioned above but
the server would not accept the password for the account until I removed the
recent fix so to speak. 

So what is needed is somebody with greater experience with outlook 2013 to
chime in and give me some much guidance. 

It is annoying when something I know should work does not and screws up my
batting average for the lack of a better term.

Re: [JAWS-Users] need help!!! not able to get windows 10

Does anyone know how much win 10 costs if I want to get  a copy to run in a vm 
for example?  I don’t have a windows machine that is able to run it at the 
moment.

 Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] need help!!! not able to get windows 10
 
 
 here's the article I copied and pasted it
 
 
 
 
 
 Many of you have written concerned that you don’t have that little upgrade 
 icon for Windows 10 in the lower right corner of your Windows PC.
 
 windows-10-upgrade-symbol
 
 So what’s going on? There could be several possibilities, so let’s run down 
 the list.
 
 It could be that your device doesn’t have the latest Windows updates. You 
 need to have updated to Windows 8.1 and have all current updates. Windows 7 
 must have Windows 7 Service Pack 1 installed as well as the latest Microsoft 
 updates.
 
 For Windows 7 SP1:
 
 KB3035583
 
 KB2952664
 
 For Windows 8.1 Update:
 
 KB3035583
 
 KB2976978
 
 Try running both critical and optional updates and installing them. There’s 
 a good chance you’ll see the icon then.
 
 checkforupdatescharm
 
 You’ll only see an upgrade option for Windows 7 Home and Pro and Windows 8 
 Home and Pro versions. If you’re running an Enterprise edition, there won’t 
 be a free upgrade. Also, if you’re running Windows RT, there’s no upgrade.
 
 Is your device part of a school or business network that’s managed by 
 administrator? You’ll have to check with the IT administrator about upgrades.
 
 If Microsoft thinks your PC might not be able to run Windows 10, you won’t 
 see the get Windows 10 app before July 29. They’ll enable the app after that 
 date.
 
 There’s also a possibility that you aren’t running a genuine version of 
 Windows. The upgrade will only apply to genuine Windows versions.
 
 windowsactivated
 
 If none of the above apply to you, Microsoft does offer a fix, but it’s a 
 complicated one that I’m going to copy verbatim from their support site. I 
 do not suggest trying this unless you are very comfortable with technology 
 and doing something like editing your registry.
 1.Open Notepad
 2.Copy the following text and paste it into Notepad:
 
 REG QUERY “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows 
 NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\UpgradeExperienceIndicators” /v UpgEx | 
 findstr UpgEx
 
 if “%errorlevel%” == “0” GOTO RunGWX
 
 reg add “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows 
 NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Appraiser” /v UtcOnetimeSend /t REG_DWORD 
 /d 1 /f
 
 schtasks /run /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft 
 Compatibility Appraiser”
 
 :CompatCheckRunning
 
 schtasks /query /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft 
 Compatibility Appraiser”
 
 schtasks /query /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft 
 Compatibility Appraiser” | findstr Ready
 
 if NOT “%errorlevel%” == “0” ping localhost nul goto :CompatCheckRunning
 
 :RunGWX
 
 schtasks /run /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Setup\gwx\refreshgwxconfig”
 1.Click File, and then Save As
 2.In the File name box, change the file name to ReserveWin10.cmd
 3.Then click the dropdown next to Save as type, and select All files (*.*)
 4.Select the folder you would like to save the file to.  For this example, 
 let’s choose to save the file to the C:/Temp folder.  Then click Save.
 5.Open an elevated command prompt.  (From the Start screen or Start menu, 
 type Command Prompt in the search box, and then in the list of results, 
 right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as administrator.)
 6.Finally, run the file from the location you saved to in Step 6.  In this 
 example, you would type the following in the Command Prompt window and hit 
 Enter:C:/Temp/ReserveWin10.cmd
 
 The Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser can take 10 – 30 minutes to run, 
 during which the script will continuously provide status reports that it is 
 running.  Please be patient.
 
 If the script is failing in an infinite loop, then you don’t have the 
 necessary prerequisite Windows Updates.
 
 Hopefully one of these will work for you.
 
 ~ Cynthia

 Hey Dacia,

 First of all you must have either Office 2013 or Office 365 installed on 
 your computer. It could be the Home edition, the Home and Business 
 Edition, or whatever. Then hopefully, you will already have the icons for 
 Word, excel, etc on your desktop. If you don't, then we can go through the

 steps of putting them there, if you have one of these versions of Office. 
 Then, you could just go to your desktop and press enter on the icon for 
 Word and it, of course, would open. Let me know what version of Office you

 are running , and we can take it from there.

 As for more blind friendly versions of Word, I know that the web app is

 On saving, I, again, open the file tab, and arrow to Save to save changes
