Can I get start up sound back in Windows 10 and the action center with JAWS

2015-08-01 Thread Anders Boholdt-Petersen via Jfw
Hi everyone

 

1. After I have upgraded one of my computer from Windows 8,1 to Windows 10,
the operating system not longer play the start up sound.

 

On Windows 8.1 I could make a fix via the Windows registry database so the
sound came back, but the fix dont work in Windows 10.

 

Can I get the start up sound back again, so I as blind can hear when Windows
10 is ready?

 

2. What is your experience with the new build action center in Windows 10,
and can I disable the action center?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Anders

RE: Microsoft Office 365

2015-04-11 Thread Anders Boholdt-Petersen via Jfw
Hi everyone

 

1. You write below that Office 365 and JAWS 16 work exceptionally.

 

But is it possible to block updates to the desktop client, e.g. when
Microsoft release Office 2016 between your Office 365 subscription?

I ask you since I not using Office 365 at this moment, because I not can be
sure that the upcoming Office 2016 working with JAWS for the first month
after the release.

 

I will be sure that I still can use Office after the release, until Freedom
Scientific has make an update to JAWS.

 

2. What working best in connection with Office 365 and JAWS 16, the desktop
client, where you, as far as I know currently use Office 2013, or the Office
365 web app?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Anders

It works exceptionally well for me.  I also have JAWS 16, Windows 7 64-bit

and the office 365 subscription.  I have no complaints and things are

updated seamlessly in the background without my having to do anything.

Hi,

 

 

Does anyone know how MS Office 365 works with Jaws.  I currently have Jaws

16 with Windows 7 64 bit.

 

 

Any thoughts on this will be very much appreciated.

 

 

Thanks.

 

Geoff.

RE: JAWS and reading text on Wikipedia

Hi and thanks for the answer below.

I can not find the information in the Surf's up.

Has any person a directly link to the information so JAWS not longer will
say links when JAWS reading text on Wikipedia via the hotkey Insert+down
arrow?

Very thanks in advance.

Regards,
Anders

JAWS and reading text on Wikipedia

2014-10-07 Thread Anders Boholdt-Petersen via Jfw
Hi everyone

 

Every time I read information on Wikipedia with JAWS, JAWS told me when they
come to a link. This is frustrating, specially when I read the information
via the hotkey Insert+down arrow.

 

Can I configure JAWS so they not announce the links on Wikipedia, especially
when I read via Insert+down arrow?

 

I use JAWS 14 and 15, and Internet Explorer 10 as my browser.

 

Very thanks for the answer.

 

Regards,

Anders
