Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader XI and JFW, Another Necessary Setting
I do have protected mode unchecked, but the second is still checked. Thanks. Cher -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

After opening Adobe from your desktop or start menu shortcut, go into preferences with control-k. JAWS lands on an item in a tree view. If you have been here before, it will be the item you last opened. Arrow down or, use first letter navigation to get to, Security Enhanced. Note that this is the item below "Security." Then uncheck these 2 options, the 2nd option is not necessary to uncheck but, optional: Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked. Enable Enhanced Security, does not need to be unchecked. Now, tab to, Okay, & press enter to save your change & close Adobe preferences. Note. When making changes in the Security Enhanced section, you will be told that Adobe needs to be restarted. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader XI and JFW, Another Necessary Setting
Hi Al, If it's just a definition update the settings should stick but, when the Adobe program updates from Adobe XI/ 11 to Adobe XII / 12, the settings might have to be reset like when Adobe 9 updated to 10 &, 10 updated to 11. It seems like in each change of Adobe whole numbers they find a way to screw with us! LOL, hahaha hahaha hahaha, LOL Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader XI and JFW
Mike- thanks, thanks, thanks. I appreciate very much that you read and understood the question. I had been skipping the set up assistant and doing the quick method because in the older Adobe versions that worked well. I did not know that they've hidden the open in browser option inside. I still don't understand what the browser settings under Preferences are supposed to do since they've changed the wording. I followed your directions and hope my problems will now be solved. Adobe XI has just been sitting there instead of automatically processing- seemingly waiting for someone to select the 'Start' button which is not in the tab order and not easily navigated to with JAWS. Thanks again. Cher -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Reader XI and JFW
Do you have adobe XI resident on your computer? If so, just click on the desktop icon and hit Control K. Will take you to preferences. There should be a choice of whether to show adobe pdf's in the browser. On 3/26/2014 6:52 PM, Don & Cher wrote: Using latest JFW 15 and IE11- Yep- there used to be, but it seems to have changed.
