Hi,
Can you explain to me what exactly what research it in jaws does for you
over the regular amazon search? Also can you tell me the jaws hot key for it
as my old mind has forgot again.

Thanks in advance.

I sure hope they don't drop  it.  I use  the Amazon research it several
times a week and never have a problem.  It's convenient and fast for finding
an item.  I may need to type in different wording to find different results
but I always find what I'm looking for.

Could someone explain the advantages of using the Amazon.com option in
Research It versus visiting Amazon.com directly?  Using JAWS 16 with Windows
7, I have no trouble either navigating the Amazon.com site or making
purchases.  And for those who find the regular Amazon.com site somewhat
cluttered or difficult to navigate, there is always the accessible version
which is optimized for screen readers.  The trouble with Research It is that
when a web site is modified, Research It often no longer works well with
that site, if at all.  Although the Research It feature was useful and
convenient when it was originally introduced, many users are now reporting
problems with it, and FS should considerdropping it from future releases of
JAWS.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Amazon.com not working in research it

2015-09-19 Thread DGH
The command is, insert spacebar followed by the letter R.
Type in the item you are  looking  for  and then tab one time.
Type the letter  A for Amazon and press enter.
This will bring up 5 search results for that product.
It gives you a short description and the  price.
If you want more information about one of the results or you want to
purchase it, just press enter on the name and it takes you to Amazon so you
can purchase it or see the reviews on that item and also get more
information about it.
I just find it to  be quick and easy.  Almost too easy to spend money.

Shane,
Thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately it didn't work for me.  Here is
FS's response to my report re Amazon.com and research it.

Dear Greg

Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support.

This is a known issue that our development team is aware of and working on.
It's possible Amazon is doing some work on the page that's impacting this
issue. Therefore, I recommend trying it later and it may work.

  Be sure to include all previous correspondence pertaining to this matter
when replying to this message so that we might better

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Amazon.com not working in research it

I reported the amazon issue to FS a while back. There is a work around for
it. But first, let me explain what causes this, at least what caused the
problems for me and how to fix it.
When you use the screen reader optimized version of amazon.com, I believe it
puts a cookie on your computer. The cookie tells the browser to default to
that site. This in turn screws with the research-it feature because it is
expecting the main site, not the screen reader optimized version. Hence, you
get "press escape to close results viewer"
with no results.
The fix is to delete cookies. Then, try doing the research-it function and
it should work. If you are signed into an account, I'd suggest signing out
first, close the browser, then delete the cookies.
As a side note, under advanced in internet options, I have it set to not
save encrypted pages to disk and to empty temporary internet files when the
browser is closed. Hope this information is helpful.

Shane
ps: I just tried the research-it function with amazon and it works.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Amazon.com not working in research it

2015-09-18 Thread Dave Carlson
Greg,

Yes, that's why I use it, as well. It's an easy way to drill down to one or 
two specific product offerings, especially when the search term is vague or 
all-encompassing.

For example when I put in "APC UPS"  to look for an uninterruptable power 
source, I was given a list of 5 of their models, each with a different power 
capacity, along with pricing. Cant get much better than that unless you go 
to a Tag It site or a comparison shopping site.

Gerald,
It's just a personal preference in my case.  When I am looking for a
particular product on Amazon I like the uncluttered simple interface of
research it.  It will list five products that match my search criteria along
with the price and when I see one I am interested in I click on it and it
takes me to the item on Amazon's web site.  I too use the amazon web site
often as well but it's nice to have the research option especially when I am
in a hurry to get info on a particular product.

I sure hope they don't drop  it.  I use  the Amazon research it several
times a week and never have a problem.  It's convenient and fast for finding
an item.  I may need to type in different wording to find different results
but I always find what I'm looking for.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Amazon.com not working in research it

2015-09-18 Thread Greg Washington
Shane,
Thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately it didn't work for me.  Here is
FS's response to my report re Amazon.com and research it.

Dear Greg

Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support. 

This is a known issue that our development team is aware of and working on.
It's possible Amazon is doing some work on the page that's impacting this
issue. Therefore, I recommend trying it later and it may work. 

  Be sure to include all previous correspondence pertaining to this matter
when replying to this message so that we might better
assist you.

Mr. Tracey Jackson

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Amazon.com not working in research it

I reported the amazon issue to FS a while back. There is a work around for
it. But first, let me explain what causes this, at least what caused the
problems for me and how to fix it.
When you use the screen reader optimized version of amazon.com, I believe it
puts a cookie on your computer. The cookie tells the browser to default to
that site. This in turn screws with the research-it feature because it is
expecting the main site, not the screen reader optimized version. Hence, you
get "press escape to close results viewer" 
with no results.
The fix is to delete cookies. Then, try doing the research-it function and
it should work. If you are signed into an account, I'd suggest signing out
first, close the browser, then delete the cookies.
As a side note, under advanced in internet options, I have it set to not
save encrypted pages to disk and to empty temporary internet files when the
browser is closed. Hope this information is helpful.

Shane
ps: I just tried the research-it function with amazon and it works.

Greg,

Working again today, so it was indeed a temporary change in the Amazon.com 
API.

Shane,
Thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately it didn't work for me.  Here is
FS's response to my report re Amazon.com and research it.

Dear Greg

Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support.

This is a known issue that our development team is aware of and working on.
It's possible Amazon is doing some work on the page that's impacting this
issue. Therefore, I recommend trying it later and it may work.

  Be sure to include all previous correspondence pertaining to this matter
when replying to this message so that we might better
assist you.

 Regards,
Mr. Tracey Jackson

I reported the amazon issue to FS a while back. There is a work around for
it. But first, let me explain what causes this, at least what caused the
problems for me and how to fix it.
When you use the screen reader optimized version of amazon.com, I believe it
puts a cookie on your computer. The cookie tells the browser to default to
that site. This in turn screws with the research-it feature because it is
expecting the main site, not the screen reader optimized version. Hence, you
get "press escape to close results viewer"
with no results.
The fix is to delete cookies. Then, try doing the research-it function and
it should work. If you are signed into an account, I'd suggest signing out
first, close the browser, then delete the cookies.
As a side note, under advanced in internet options, I have it set to not
save encrypted pages to disk and to empty temporary internet files when the
browser is closed. Hope this information is helpful.

Shane
ps: I just tried the research-it function with amazon and it works.

Greg,

Yes, that's why I use it, as well. It's an easy way to drill down to one 
or
two specific product offerings, especially when the search term is vague 
or

all-encompassing.

For example when I put in "APC UPS"  to look for an uninterruptable power
source, I was given a list of 5 of their models, each with a different 
power

capacity, along with pricing. Cant get much better than that unless you go
to a Tag It site or a comparison shopping site.

Gerald,
It's just a personal preference in my case.  When I am looking for a
particular product on Amazon I like the uncluttered simple interface of
research it.  It will list five products that match my search criteria 
along

with the price and when I see one I am interested in I click on it and it
takes me to the item on Amazon's web site.  I too use the amazon web site
often as well but it's nice to have the research option especially when I 
am

in a hurry to get info on a particular product.

Could someone explain the advantages of using the Amazon.com option in
Research It versus visiting Amazon.com directly?  Using JAWS 16 with 
Windows


7, I have no trouble either navigating the Amazon.com site or making
purchases.  And for those who find the regular Amazon.com site somewhat
cluttered or difficult to navigate, there is always the accessible version
which is optimized for screen readers.  The trouble with Research It is 
that


when a web site is modified, Research It often no longer works well with
that site, if at all.  Although the Research It feature was useful and
convenient when it was originally introduced, many users are now reporting
problems with it, and FS should considerdropping it from future releases 
of

JAWS.

I'm thinking that Amazon has put up some sort of flash at the beginning of

Don't blame Research It. It worked for me yesterday, and today it's not. 
I've changed nothing on my computer, neither JAWS nor Internet Explorer. I 
suspect that Amazon has changed something with their API on the web site 
that has resulted in the current problem -- just as those using MLB had 
problems some time back. It's all due to the underlying web sites changing 
something so that Research It can no longer get the information.

Don't blame Research It. It worked for me yesterday, and today it's not.
I've changed nothing on my computer, neither JAWS nor Internet Explorer. I
suspect that Amazon has changed something with their API on the web site
that has resulted in the current problem -- just as those using MLB had
problems some time back. It's all due to the underlying web sites changing
something so that Research It can no longer get the information.

Greg,

I have been having this issue sporadically for some time
now. I simply gave up on it and just go straight to the
amazon site and search from there.
Also, just tried with the JAWS 17 beta, no go.

Best,
Al

The Amazon product search item in research it is not working
on my Windows 7 computer using latest Jaws 16 with IE as my
default browser.  When I search for items that as recently
as yesterday returned the usual 5 items now Jaws reports
there is nothing to display.  I get the message "press
escape to close the results viewer.  Other choices such as
weather and Wikipedia are working fine.  I have reported
this to FS support via email and am awaiting a response.
Has anyone else experienced this problem today?
Best,
Greg Washington

If you never used it, then how do you know it is sh*t?
It is a great feature and gets used a lot here.
