Re: Malware Bites with Jaws

Mike,

I wish I had warned you about purchasing the premium versions. I did exactly 
the same a couple months ago for our two computers. Same result -- Could not 
use them and requested a refund. Perhaps they will get the hint if that 
happens enough?

Hi Jim,

If you're running MalwareBytes 1.75 I would stifck with it.  I've tried the
newer versions on several occasions & although you can get it to scan &
review the scan results now, you still can't create a schedule for scanning
or updating.  I spent the better part of yesterday trying to get MWB to work
for me using 2 different screenreading programs, Jaws & NVDA, without
success.  I ended up requesting a refund for the 2 Premium licenses I
purchased.
Take care.
Mike

I may have missed something on this topic.

Is this MWB version more accessible than following versions?  If so, should
I uninstall the MWB which I now have, and install this version instead?

By the way, I had the same problem, as below, when I tried to go to the link
you provided.

Where on the site can you find the 1.75 version?  I found the changelog for
it but not the download.

Thanks

And you can easily download that earlier version from the Malware Bytes web
site.  When installing, be sure to answer no to any request to update the
version, or else you will be right back to where you started!  However, you
will receive a separate prompt about updating the definitions, and you
answer yes to that.

You can still use malwarbytes but you have togo back to version 1.75.
Anything later than that won't work, yet.  Good luck.

Re: smart navigation?

2015-11-28 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Ann,

Based on the Podcast from FS, it helps us more readily "see" the actual 
layout of a web page by revealing it's layout. Also gives additional tools 
to navigate these areas. I've not explored it much yet, but in time I'll 
likely give it a shot.

From what I can tell smart navigation is not really meant for normal
websites (despite the fact that it was enabled by default). It is
instead meant for certain types of web applications and the like where
controls of various types dominate over text.

Re: Is there any reason to not upgrade to JAWS 17?

2015-11-28 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Hello Pablo,

Thanks for the nice concise script.

One note to those not familiar with scripting, is that the first word in the
script text needs to be "script" which was left at the end of your
instructions. The first line should actually be:

script ChangeSmartNavigation ()

For all people that is using jaws 17, and would like to be able to activate
or deactivate smart navigation quickly. This script will modify the
default.jcf file every time that you press a keystroke, activating smart
navigation controls, or smart navigation controls and tables, or smart
navigation off.
So just with a keystroke you would be able to switch between all these
choices, instead going to  Startup Wizard.
Here is the script. Remember that you need to add it to the default.jss,
assign a keystroke to the script, and compile the script again. Script

Re: uninstall Jaws 16

2015-10-31 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Not sure you need to. Doesn't JAWS 16 already work with Windows 10? If you 
have access to JAWS 17, then just install it by itself. Both versions can 
coexist on the same computer.

Re: Webvisum interfering with Firefox navigation

You might have inadvertently set the Tab key to launch Webvizum help. Try 
this:

tools
Webvizum
Preferences
Key Bindings
Tab to the list

Then arrow down to Help and tab once to see what keystroke is assigned to 
it. Change as necessary.

Verizon must have the most annoying website, which is why I avoid going on

online to find out why. Now they require me to update my password to one 
they deem more secure. Unfortunately, IE11 recognizes no username or 
password fields, so I had to turn to Firefox. Here, those fields do appear. 
However, every time I tab, Webvisum help comes up. When I close out 
Webvisum, JAWS can't read anything on the page.

Any ideas?

they want to appear by name or as a manual order. How would I get to the
"View Options" dialog to fix it? I tried pressing Control+J, but nothing
happens. Also, is there a way for me to fix it so the CD appears in the
"source List", along with Music, Purchased, and all the other playlists I
have? In older versions of ITunes, Specifically ITunes 8.1 and earlier,
there was a tree view of items, the Source List, and when I inserted a CD,
the CD would appear in that source list. Now in newer versions of ITunes, I
expect it to appear in the list of Playlists, apparently the new-fangled
version of the Source List, but it's not there.

message, and I can read it as expected without first having to press the Alt

For me, this is worth the upgrade in and of itself! Good job FS! :)

Looking forward to hearing what everyone else thinks of Jaws 17.

Hi!



Is there some keystroke to select an entire table (or just a row or column

such table's row and column structure?  For example, when navigating a

Re: Can a Table be Copied from the Internet into Excel?

2015-09-10 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Here's what I do every time I need to copy a table...

First, I copy and paste into MS-Word.

Then I make sure the vertical arrangement has the same number of items and 
spaces. e.g. If there are 5 headings, then there are five lines, each 
separated by a line break, followed by the first data item. Keep the 
sequence exact, every row in the table is 5 lines of text/data separated 
with line breaks all the way to the end. This part is a bit tedious for a 
very large table. Now select that entire pile of text.

Then I create the table in MS-Word using the "Convert text to table" 
function. I tell it the number of columns and use auto-fit. I also make sure 
that the separation is paragraph marks. Then hit OK. Now there's a table in 
MS-Word that you can check for any misalignment errors. If you have some, 
note where  they are, and undo the conversion with Ctrl+Z. Go down the list 
and fix the error by inserting a blank line or removing an extra line break. 
Repeat until you have a good table.

Copy that table and paste into Excel.

Wasn't that easy? Not at first, but you get pretty good when you do it a few 
times a month.

Hi!



Is there some keystroke to select an entire table (or just a row or column
of it) on a webpage, and then be able to paste it into Excel maintaining
such table's row and column structure?  For example, when navigating a
webpage, we hear "Table with X columns and Y rows." I wish I could copy that
table and then paste it into Excel retaining the column and row structure.
Being able to do this with a particular row or column would be fantastic!

Yes, Barbara. In my process, the last step is to copy the completed table 
from MS-Word into MS-Excel. I've found this two-step process to be the most 
foolproof way to get a table (especially complicated ones with blanks) 
copied from any program into Excel.

I just went to the Internet and found a table using the letter t on a

right arrow to select the table, and then the down arrow, pressed Control
plus C, opened Excel and pasted it into Excel.  The two tables I used worked
well but the tables contained text.  I have not tried one with numbers.  My
table said table with 3 row and 11 columns.  I actually went to

FS stopped script development for MS-Access several versions ago; I think 
around JAWS 7. You might get some help with that version if you can find the 
scripts and recompile them for the current version. Another user on this

Yes, there is practically no material available for developing apps in

I'm using common windows controls and appears the properties need to be 
modified for JAWS. Some examples of issues Im having are:
- a password Textbox field, JAWS echoes the characters typed in and not 
asterisk
- radio buttons (in an Option Group) when checked, JAWS reads as Not-checked 
(and vice-versa)
- cannot Tab to the heading of a Tab control

Anyone else gone down this road?

Hi Adrian & List Members,

Steps for, Assigning A Keystroke To Adjust Punctuation On The Fly

1. Press, Insert + F2, to open the Jaws Manager.
2. Goto Keyboard Manager and press enter.
3. Navigate to Default, & then tab 1 time to get into the list of options.
4. In the Default keyboard manager list navigate to Set Punctuation Level If
it says none.  That means there has not been a keystroke assigned.
5. Press the Alt key to open the menues, & right arrow to Action. Then down
arrow to Add Keystroke, & press enter.  Or press control + A which is the
shortcut for asigning a keystroke.
6. Insert a keystroke combination like control + dash for example. If the
combination is already being used for another command jaws will tell you.
Doing this in the Default Keyboard Manager, allows this keystroke to be used
in all aplications.
7. Tab to the Okay button, press the spacebar, then a dialogue will open
asking if you are sure you want to modify the default JKM. Press the
spacebar on the Yes option.

Now, every time you press the control + dash keystroke it changes the
punctuation level.  So press the control + dash keystroke until you hear the
punctuation level you want.

If you ever want to change or remove the keystroke, simply repeat the above
steps.

Take care.

the edit field. Or you can type p in the edit field and three options

Sandra,

All I can suggest is to play around with unusual letter combinations, and 
even consider the grave accent mark or apostrophe to modify the way the 
sound comes out. Bear in mind that this would be done one way with 
Eloquence, but would be very different with some other synthesizer -- they 
vary quite a bit in their phoneme dictionaries.

Re: JAWS and Punctuation

2015-08-31 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Kimsan,

Give it a try. Creating a test paragraph is actually a mind-stimulating 
activity. As to Window-Eyes, well that is another choice, and you're welcome 
to use it, just as Narrator or the other one that starts with "N".

 appear, the second of which is punctuation. Press the spacebar to cycle 
 through the punctuation level choices, leave the one you want, tab to Okay

 I don't know if a hotkey can be created for this operation.

Pablo,

I've been confused by this thread. I've never noticed any difference in 
menus between the one brought up by the applications key and one brought up 
by shift-applications key. Actually, I hadn't tried until just now, and in 
Window Explorer and elsewhere, the menus look identical.

Am I mistaken?

If not, shift-F10 should always function the same as the applications key.

Hi Mike,
In windows explorer, if you are focused on a file and you press application
key or shift + f10, the menu is different than if you press shift +
application key. But my question is, if you don't have the application key,
how can you get the same menu as when you press shift + application key?

Hi all,
Some laptops, and some Bluetooth keyboards don't have the application key. I
understand that shift + F10 is the same thing as the application key. But
when we press shift + application key, we have different options than when
we press just application key. In the case that someone  is using a keyboard
without an application key, what is the
Thankskeystroke to replicate the function of shift application key?

there was such a thing, claiming the stuff they knew of was like an a/b

where I tried two headphones, and one busted right in half. What I tried to
do was using two pairs of earphones, with the one behind's left earpiece
pushed out of the way to get the front one to sit there.

 The Amplifier is for the phone itself.  The Amp plugs into where the
 handset
 would be, and you run the headset that way.  I've used it before, and
 they
 work Ok.

 I am surprised Plantronics never mentioned that one. Maybe there isn't a
 way
 to have a 3.5mm 4-ring plug for the phone end. I don't care at all about
 the
 play and fastforward buttons. I wonder why one needs an amplifier at all
 unless you were hearing impaired.

 Subject: dual source headsets, where to get?

 I am wondering how you go about getting a dual source headset to be able
 to
 hear JFW on one side and have a phone call on the other side. Even
 better,
 it would be nice if the microphone sent its output back to the phone. I
 tried getting quotes on a sight called Thumbtack, and I spoke with a guy
 who
 answered who does audio engineering on the side. He thinks he could make
 a
 cable where I could plug any headset mic in to do this, as long as it
 had
 the combination jack that combines the headset and mic on it. If one was
 going to use a phone that has the same kind of jack as the iPhone, which
 uses the 4-band, 3.5mm connector, does such a product exist? The closes
 thing I found years ago was a discontinued Plantronics headset, but it
 only
 had the RJ headset plug for the phone side, which may or may not be able
 to
 be adapted. Also, I'd like something less expensive than that. I spoke
 with
 Plantronics the other day, and it appeared that what they may have had
 has
 been discontinued so long ago that it isn't in their system any more.
 The
 guy told me that the only dual source headsets like that have to be

Dave:

You have more patience than I.  If JAWS does not return within a minute or
so, I do a (you should excuse the expression) blind shutdown of JAWS, go to
the DESKTOP, where I have already placed the focus, and reopened JAWS.  Mind
you, if a good pair of eyes is ready/willing/able, not to mention actually
present, I am not shy about asking for help in case something is going on -
un related to JAWS.

However, when no eyes are around, it feels like the world has been shut
off; so, I know what you mean by waiting for nothing.  I usually try to find
something else to do.

As to previous versions -- simply because the current install is running
fine, it does not mean that it will run so with all applications. I
occasionally run JAWS 15 when JAWS 16 is misbehaving in a particular
program. I delete versions older than 3 major revisions back, just to keep
things simpler. And I still have all the executables for last revisions of
all major versions going back to 3.5. Of course that's just my

John,

A very good point. I sometimes need to revert back to an older version of 
JAWS if the current one seems to misbehave. With Windows 10 we need to start 
with JAWS 16 and live with any limitations until the release of JAWS 17.

And, yes, to another lister who suggested that it would be a good move on FS

Windows 10 was installed. Why not make it a coincident upgrade program?

 Hi,

 I've been following all this Windows 10 stuff with great interest, and
 I just have a question (with a lot of background first):

 So FS says you shouldn't use Edge, you should use Firefox or IE. (I'm
 doing that now in Windows 7.) You can't use the built in mail program;
 you should use something like Thunderbird or Outlook. (I'm doing that
 now in Windows 7.) And you should use Adobe Reader for PDF documents.
 (I'm doing that now in Windows 7.) Reviews I've read all seem to
 indicate that Cortana is iffy at best.

 So why should I upgrade again? I'm not being smart; I'd really like to
 know if I'm going to gain anything other than having a new operating
 system that I have to use in the same old ways. The only benefit I can
 see is that Windows 10 will be supported beyond January of 2020, where
 Windows
 7 will not. Am I overlooking some wonderful new feature that should
 cause me to want to hurry and upgrade? Or does the old saying, If it
 ain't broke, don't fix it, apply here? I'd really honestly like to
 know if JAWS users in particular are finding anything beneficial in
 the upgrade, or if it's just something fun to do to your functioning
 computer to see if it will still function.

 P.S. Anybody on this list from Louisiana and thinking Cortana, as in
 mall?

program. I delete versions older than 3 major revisions back, just to keep
things simpler. And I still have all the executables for last revisions of
all major versions going back to 3.5. Of course that's just my
anal-retentive nature at work, having sufficient hard disk space to justify
that level of insanity.

Don't mean to be smart; but, why would you want to use previous versions
of JAWS if you have the latest version running successfully.  I'm sure that
there is a really good reason for it!  :)  :)

 Windows 10 won't be free after a year. I believe the 2020 date refers
 to the
 end up MS support. But for now, as Brad says, who has the time? I'm
 waiting
 for the first service pack (MS always comes out with one) and FS's first

 Hi,

 I've been following all this Windows 10 stuff with great interest, and
 I just have a question (with a lot of background first):

 So FS says you shouldn't use Edge, you should use Firefox or IE. (I'm
 doing that now in Windows 7.) You can't use the built in mail program;
 you should use something like Thunderbird or Outlook. (I'm doing that
 now in Windows 7.) And you should use Adobe Reader for PDF documents.
 (I'm doing that now in Windows 7.) Reviews I've read all seem to
 indicate that Cortana is iffy at best.

 So why should I upgrade again? I'm not being smart; I'd really like to
 know if I'm going to gain anything other than having a new operating
 system that I have to use in the same old ways. The only benefit I can
 see is that Windows 10 will be supported beyond January of 2020, where
 Windows
 7 will not. Am I overlooking some wonderful new feature that should
 cause me to want to hurry and upgrade? Or does the old saying, If it
 ain't broke, don't fix it, apply here? I'd really honestly like to
 know if JAWS users in particular are finding anything beneficial in
 the upgrade, or if it's just something fun to do to your functioning
 computer to see if it will still function.

 P.S. Anybody on this list from Louisiana and thinking Cortana, as in mall?

Windows 10 Clean Install vs. In-Place Upgrade

2015-08-07 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Joseph,

So in your summary, you say that using the Media Creation Tool will not keep 
your programs and settings? It would end up being a factory default install 
of Windows 10 and require installing all my programs from scratch? Does not 
sound like what I want to do.

Or are you saying that I can use the Media Creation Tool to do an  In-Place 
Upgrade and not lose all my programs? Please clarify.

Subject: RE: Installation of Windows 10


Hi,
There is no command to restart Narrator.
Speaking of installing Windows, I'll go through some FAQ's I got from this
list in this email:
* Compatible JFW release: Please use JAWS 16.0.4350 or later, or if you'd
like to wait, please hold off until JAWS 17 comes out (public beta or
official build will do).
* Clean install versus in-place upgrade: You can perform an in-place upgrade
all by yourself with a screen reader running. Your computer will restart
several times, and after some restarts, you'll hear silence from your
computer. Once this happens, press Windows+ENTER to launch Narrator, and if
your sound card is detected, Microsoft David will come up talking.
* Multiple clean install options: There are two ways of performing clean
install: bootable media or from Media Creation Tool. If using Media Creation
tool option, the steps are same as above, except none of your programs and
settings will be kept. If doing bootable media installation, then you'll
indeed need some sighted assistance for the first few prompts to choose your
language, entering your product key (don't have to enter it), choosing a
partition and others. Once your computer restarts several times, follow the
steps above to finish installing using Narrator (Windows 10 will come in
either a DVD or on a flash drive).
* Some finds with JAWS 16.0.4350: My brief testing shows the following (at
least on my computer):
1. In Start search box, JAWS does not announce search results automatically.
2. JAWS does not announce Action Center notifications, aa variation of
Windows 8.x's toast notifications. They are toasts in disguise because you
can press Windows+V to move to and interact with them, and press Windows+A
to open Action Center. These are basic issues that should have been fixed in
the first place, thus (in my opinion) disqualifying JAWS from being
compatible with Windows 10 for now (I'm sure FS is working on it).
3. You can use TAB and Shift+TAB to move among links in Microsoft Edge (no
virtual cursor, no forms mode, no support for MathML yet). There were tweets
floating around which criticized FS for not supporting Edge yet, but that's
expected (the biggest nightmare for screen reader vendors is whenever
Microsoft comes out with a new version of Windows; Windows 8.x users tasted
this, and it'll happen more frequently now that Microsoft will be updating
Windows constantly to add new features which may break accessibility).
For resident geeks here:
* In order to let your app support Windows 10, you need to modify app
manifest in your application, which is what JAWS 16.0.4350 could have done.
* UIA (User Interface Automation) is more prominent now, with universal apps
using UIA.
* Microsoft Edge is filled with UIA objects, thus you need to know how UIA
works (at least a high-level overview) when scripting for Windows 10 apps
and for supporting Edge.
If you'd like to hear Windows 10 in action, there are podcasts devoted to
this (including mine). I talked about Windows 10 (although from another
screen reader's perspective) on Tek Talk for August 3rd, which can be found
at www.accessibleworld.org.
Cheers,
Joseph
P.S. I believe we have some Windows Insiders who uses JAWS, so you can ask
them also.

Re: JAWS and Amazon

2015-07-28 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Hello T Using,

I've actually never had any problems with JAWS Technical Support. All my 
encounters have been courteous, and admittedly, when their only suggestion 
was to run JAWS in default mode and/or delete all the user settings, I've 
complained that it was an onerous thing to suggest, they still didn't treat 
me in any way a demeaning manner.

Sometimes I've found that my personal attitude at the initial call has a lot 
to do with how the responder reacts, and I try to have an open, 
non-confrontational attitude at the first encounter -- after all even though 
it's been brewing in my mind for several hours or days, it's a brand-new 
situation for the tech support person.

As to Amazon, I find it pretty good to use with any version of JAWS in the 
standard  mode. Just use all the different navigational techniques until you 
come up with a pattern that works for you. I use the navigational keys to 
move around, and in my experience, there are a number of combo lists that 
come up when you select different ship addresses, recipients, or payment 
options. Shipping method tends to be radio buttons.

Also note that if you ;purchase more than one item, and if they are shipped 
by different vendors, you will need to select shipping options for each one 
separately, since they all have different shipping options.

I see that you're using JAWS 15, but I don't think that there are any 
significant enhancements in JAWS 16 that would resolve your issues.

Hi,

Seldom if ever have I ever expressed any dissatisfaction  with Freedom
Scientific.



I  had been told  to upgrade to JAWS 15 so  finally I did it.



Well, with afriend watching my  every move, I

Found it was very difficult to buy items on amazon.com/access,

Impossible to select a different gift recipientfrom a list of

People one  lists for shipping, and impossible to change shipping options.



I was using the latest  Firefox with JAWS 15.



I  called  Freedom Scientificand explained this. I was told sarcastically to
go buy a new version of JAWS which I frankly thought was  totally out of
line-since  F S  had  been tauting the virtues of JAWS 15 for sometime!



Thinking some one cared,   I mentioned that JAWS does  not work with   the
Amazon music player-very useful for playing musicand

Downloading music.



Would you believe I was corrected  in a short manner  as the speaker from  F
S quipped why would any one

Even want to use the music player.

Why would any one asksuch astupidquestion?

I  guess we should be permitted to use some  key  Amazon features and not
others.

He  criticized me for using JAWS 15-which was what F S had been
recommending all along.



Great  sarcastic  moral support.



So  I ask this.





Are people shopping using JAWS 15 and  latest Firefox on  Amazon.com/access?



I have  watched friends use the   Amazon music player and it has a  lot of
good features.  But  F S  I guess would

Dole outaccessibilityand maybe permit us to use it 3 versions from now.  The
sarcasm

Called support hit hardas I spent a  lot of time

Trying to use the Amazon site and the  player.

Also F S  support had told me  that JAWS 15 worked with both.



Thank you and have a good day.

Re: accessible design software

2015-07-27 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Marvin,

I ran into this problem over 20 years ago. I could not make diagrams that 
required connecting shapes to show flow or correlation. I did find one 
software package that had an underlying text script that defined all the 
diagram elements, and realized that if I could understand the syntax of this 
underlying language, I could possibly just create diagrams in text and then 
import into the drawing package.

However I didn't have the time nor the necessity of having to do it, so I 
personally did not pursue this idea.

So you may want to see if these programs have any way to import and export 
the underlying data for use in other programs, and perhaps this might come 
out as text for you to learn, manipulate, and use. It may take you a 
semester just to learn how to use the software, but it could allow you to do 
the coursework.

Sorry I have no idea what software I used back then, and likely it would not 
even be around any more.

Good luck.

Hi.

Pasting an e-mail, from my lectuer.

Have to do use, case, state and other diagrams.

I am a blind it student, and this is a core subject.

Any ideas.

I use a screen reader jaws for windows from http://www.freedomscientific.com

Any ideas, any software, which will help.

Must be some software, that can design accessible diagrams.

Any ideas.

Marvin.



Marvin, that is a shame. I understand that diagrams are visual
representations, but to stop visually impaired from creating or using them
is not great.



There is a core Unit of Competency that is required to be completed for this
qualification. The important part of this unit is.

Elements and Performance Criteria


ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA


Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate
achievement of the element.


1. Derive high-level design from specification

1.1 Develop static class diagram from given set of specifications

1.2 Develop either collaboration diagram or sequence diagram from given set
of specifications

1.3 Develop either activity diagram or state diagram from given set of
specifications


2. Refine design

2.1 Investigate and refine behaviour, state of classes and collaboration
between classes

2.2 Validate correct visibility of class services and state data

2.3 Identify generalisations within classes

2.4 Identify specialisations within classes

2.5 Apply principles of aggregation and composition to refine class design


3. Document design

3.1 Create detailed uniform modelling language (UML) static class diagrams

3.2 Create detailed UML collaboration or sequence diagrams

3.3 Create detailed UML activity or state diagrams





If you have any thoughts about how you could address these requirements? May
I suggest sending these requirements to some blind colleagues and see what
they might suggest.



Unfortunately, as this is a core unit of competence I am unable to change it
to another unit.



Let me know your thoughts.

If you pres and hold the insert key and spacebar then pressing the

 Subject: Re: PDF documents

 Greg, Optacon stands for optical to tacticle converter. I use the Optacon
 R1D. It is an electronic device which is about the size of a text book. In
 back of the machine is either a charger cord or just an electrical cord,
 if
 you have one without batteries. The machine is encased in a leather case
 that snaps open and shut.

 In front of it, there is a cable on it that feels sort of like a heavy
 duty
 headset cable. At the end of this approximately 18
 inch long cable is a camera that is about the size of a pocket knife.
 There
 is a little knob at the top of the camera, so that the user can adjust it
 to

 accommodate print size.

 Inside the main body of the Optacon toward the right side, as the device
 faces you, there is a sort of metallic area that is about maybe an inch
 across by two inches in length. This is called the stimulator array, and
 it
 contains 144 pins in six rows of 24pens. These
 pins vibrate, as the shutter photographs the character where the camera is
 place. So the user has a vibrating image of a printed letter, line, as in
 a
 9 x 12 room. In such a situation, different maneuvering of the camera is
 required rather than reading across a straight line of printed material.

 The device is a life saver for reading items like utility bills, getting
 slip in window envelope correctly, checking to see if a pen writes, then
 checking signature, checking to see the number on a check, and I could go
 on
 and on.

 The Optacon is 70's technology. There is an Optacon Users' group:

 optaco...@freelists.org

 It is a good idea to place maybe a telephone book across a page that maybe
 you printed from the computer, so that you would be familiar with the
 material to start to learn to read. If you don't know the print alphabet,
 you could type it on the computer, one line in caps and one not in caps,
 as
 well as a line with numbers and then punctuations, followed by writing
 what
 the punctuation mark represents. If you know print, of course, that will
 make
 it easier. It takes some practice, which can be taxing to build the skill
 needed to use the Optacon, but it is well worth the energy investment.

 I will also give you information to where you can look into buying one,
 and
 the man will answer any questions. He is very well thought of by Optacon
 users. His name is Richard Oehm.

 Feel free to contact me further in this regard, and I would encourage you

 lately.

 Perhaps you could scan some of the archives.

Editing JAWS Special Keys List VKeyboard.jsm

2015-07-19 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Hello Soronel,

I recall that you need to edit not only the list, but change some parameters 
to define a new list length? Do you perhaps still have the process?

And if you are a masochist you can even expand the list.

You have to edit VKeyboard.jsm and then recompile VKeyboard.jss but it
is possible. I forget what symbol I added to an earlier jaws version
but I don't do that any more.

 Hi Adrian  Northstar,

 I'm not saying this to argue the ansi or ascii value of the sterling 
 pounds

 number, but when I press the, NumPad 5 key, 3 times quickly on the 
 sterling

 pounds symbol, it gives me a unicode number of 163.  But yet, if I turn 
 the

 numpad on, hold down the Alt key, press 1, 6, 3, turn the numpad off, I 
 get,

 ú.  doing what Norstar suggests  typing, 1, 5, 6 does give me the, £,
 symbol.  Whoops, I just tried typing, 0,1,6,3,  did get the, £, symbol.
 Damn, this ansi / ascii stuff can get confusing!  LOL  LOL
 Take care.

 hmmm, turn numlock and hold your alt key down and

 enter 156 and you when you release the alt key
 you should have the sterling pound sign like this: £

 of course, jaws will not say anything but the symbol is there.

Re: Editing JAWS Special Keys List VKeyboard.jsm

2015-07-19 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Soronel,

Yes, but the script formatting in the description headers is bizarre. There 
are tabs in some places, but not in others. I've not yet figured out the 
purpose of the various tabs in the Acute Capitals section to correctly 
insert more characters. If I can't figure it out, then I'll need to just 
substitute my 6 special characters in place of 6 others already in the list.

I certainly don't see anything in vkeyboard.jss that looks like a static

 My experience was quite the opposite actually. Now, let me say that for

 is Tom from the Realspeak set of voices, so it's like reading a novel
 being read by the guy who reads bulletins on your weather radio.
 Certainly it's not as good as a human narrator. Having said that, I have
 read entire books that way, and particularly with nonfiction, I didn't
 find it too bad. There are keystrokes (I can't name them right now
 because Kindle for PC is on my laptop and I am not) to allow you to go
 back to the previous page, and I think paragraph by paragraph. Also,
 when I close the book and reopen it, I'm at least at the top of the page
 where I left off. It wouldn't be my first choice for reading a book, but
 I haven't given up on it either, and I do love that I can buy a book
 like my sighted friends and start reading it in two seconds. I like it
 well enough to use it, but it's not my favorite way to read.

  Neither the regular or accessible kindle app REALLY works with jaws,
  what THE accessible version does is detect that an accessibility
  program is running (at least jaws, NVDA and window eyes are detected,
  don't know about others) and then enables self-voicing. My chief
  complaint is that the choice of voices is very limited and of even

 Several points on accessibility of printers:

 Stan, although Gerald is correct that many printers now have touchscreens,
 most functions, at least with my printer, can also be controlled with
 software on your computer. Although the printer that Adrian is talking
 about is a laser, and black and white, you seem to be in the market for
 another color inkjet. Brother makes a line of those, including the
 MFC-J870DW. As I said, my all in one came with Brother Control Center
 which reads surprisingly well with JAWS. I've not actually seen the 870,
 but older Brother inkjets came with a version of Control Center, so I
 would assume the 870 would too. I use Control Center 4 with JAWS 15, and
 it reads quite well.

 Adrian, to your point about changing the toner, you find it difficult? I
 guess I'm used to it, having worked with a ton of Brother printers going
 back to the hl-2040 for work. It's really pretty easy. That's a non-JAWS
 topic, but if I can give you any pointers, feel free to Email me off list

 Best to all,
 Brad

 Stan,

 Make sure you read Brad's very positive message from last night about his
 Brother model. I have the basic Brother laser jet printer, Brother
 HL-2270DW Compact, which I purchased from Amazon. The customer reviews
 there gave me tips that helped accessibility, even though they weren't
 directed to a visually impaired audience. The one I remember is that when
 the printer cartridge appears to be dying, press the start button seven
 times rapidly in succession to get more life out of it. I do find
 installing a new cartridge difficult without sighted assistance, but it's
 doable. With a laser printer, the need to replace cartridges is much less
 frequent than you will have found it with an ink jet model. Even though
 the price of laser cartridges is higher, they last so much longer that I
 suspect they're cheaper over time.

 Others have posted positive experiences with HP printers. I had one for
 years, and it was a workhorse. However, when it finally met its maker, I
 replaced it with an HP 1102, the newer version of my old model. This 1102
 had several problems. For one thing, the laser cartridges didn't last
 nearly as long. More important, pages printed out with defects, such as
 random lines down the middle. I called HP's customer service, but they
 required that I work with them in a process that would require sighted
 assistance. I couldn't have anyone sit with me through such a long,
 drawn-out procedure. Then I learned about HP's number for disabled
 customers. Others here have reported positive experiences with this
 department. Mine was aggravating in the extreme. I was on hold for more
 than seventy minutes before someone answered the first time I called. As
 I spoke to the rep, I became convinced I needed a replacement. I must
 have been out of warranty at that point, although I hadn't had the
 printer for the length of time I'd have expected, so I bought a new 1102.
 Almost immediately I experienced the same problems with page quality.
 Once again I called the line for disabled customers, and I was kept on
 hold for so long that I decided to say farewell to HP and hello to
 Brother.

Printing Photos Using a Kiosk

2015-06-27 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Gerald,

Many drug store type businesses have a kiosk where you can connect your 
flash drive or even your iPhone/android direct to the machine. A graphical 
display with touch pads  then allows you to browse through your folders and 
files to select the images you want printed. You select the size and finish, 
enter your name and phone number, press OK a couple times, and hit print. Go 
about your other shopping and later visit the kiosk to pick up your print 
job. Pay at the register for those you decide to keep.

I have been using Jaws since Jaws32,who knows how long ago that was?I
 do not know how many printers I have had,but I solved my printing jobs by
 going to the store and using one of their printers.I would suggest you do
 likewise.It is cheeper that way!

 Subject: printer accessibility

 It is time for me to replace my HP 3915 ink jet printer. I suspect that
 just about any wireless, color, stand alone printer out there will meet my
 modest demands for quality and speed.

 My concern is accessibility. Can I assume that HP, Epson, Brother printers
 are accessible for routine printing purposes? Should I be warned off of
 something?

 My screen reader is Jaws 16.

 Thanks for your help.

Re: Survey Monkey

2015-06-27 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Brad,

This won't help, but will affirm...I tried to set up a survey using Survey 
Monkey a couple years ago for a college course, and ended up having a work 
colleague do it for me. It was very *not* accessible to set up the survey.

Yes, in spite of it being easy to use to complete a survey, creating one is 
a very different matter. I don't know of any alternative, sorry.

Subject: Survey Monkey


I feel sure somebody's brought this topic up before, but I didn't need
the information then. I just tried to create a survey in Survey Monkey,
because everybody uses it, and I've never had any trouble taking surveys
with it. But creating a survey left me feeling like I'd just spent an
hour running in circles and not really sure where I was when I finished.
I tried Firefox and Internet Explorer 11, hoping that one or the other
would be easier to follow. I had a little better luck in Internet
Explorer, but honestly I just closed the damn thing in complete
frustration.

1. Does anybody have any tips for creating surveys in Survey Monkey that
won't leave me feeling like I want a drink.
or
2. Can anyone recommend an alternative that won't make me want a drink.

P.S. I'm not a drinking man, but if I wanted to start, Survey Monkey has
certainly provided the incentive.

Thanks in advance,
Brad

I’m not sure about scanning pictures with the Pearl. Dan is right… the Pearl 
and OpenBook do have limitations… it all depends on what you wish to do. For 
me, I mostly use my iMac with a Canon MG6200 printer/scanner combo and it 
works very well. But, when I have a lot of mail to scan, I’ll fire up my 
laptop running Windows 8.1 and use my Pearl and Openbook to scan the mail 
because it’s so fast.

I’ve had good success with inexpensive flatbed scanners on my Windows 
machine, for example, a Canon, can’t recall the model, that I paid $80 for. 
I used OmniPage Pro to do the OCR.

So there are many choices, and, if you need to scan pictures and print then 
a 3-in-1 combo may be what you need.

Thanks,

 Hi,

 If you are going with OpenBook, you might want to consider the Pearl. It’s 
 a camera on a stand, and in conjunction with OpenBook, works really well. 
 It takes a picture of the page and sends it to OpenBook for the OCR. 
 Within seconds of taking the picture you will hear the page being read to 
 you. I’m not sure what it sells for now… when I bought mine 5 years ago 
 the Pearl camera was $650… I already owned OpenBook. I think FS has a 
 combo price if you buy both together, but it’s still quite expensive.

 Carolyn,

 I am by no means an expert on scanners, but whatever you get, you need 
 to
 understand that scanning requires both hardware (the scanner) and 
 software
 (a computer program that makes use of the scanner).  OpenBook is not a
 scanner.  Instead, it is scanning and OCR software that works with many
 scanners.

 If I understand your post correctly, you are considering purchasing an
 all-in-one printer, fax, and scanner.  While such products work great 
 for
 sighted individuals, I'm not sure how many of them, if any, can be 
 operated
 nonvisually.  For example, I know that some all-in-one devices have an
 inaccessible touch screen, and it is not possible to control them from a
 computer.  That said, it may be better for you to buy two or three 
 pieces of
 equipment if, of course, you can afford it.  I also recommend scanners 
 with
 an automatic feeder.

 I hope this helps, and I'm sorry I cannot provide specific advice (e.g.
 with regards to device models).

I'd paste the picture at the top, press Enter, write the message, then send
it. The reason for this is that, if you paste the picture at the top, after
doing a tab from Subject, you can then do a shift tab back and see if your
attachment is there, before you even write your message.

understand the directions correctly; in Outlook one just pastes an

Re: a1 style versus r1c1 style in excel 2010

2015-05-22 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Mike,

I'm pretty sure that the R1C1 setting in Excel refers to how a cell is used 
within formulas, etc. JAWS does not have a setting to change how a cell is 
identified.

hi guys:

I am using excel 2010 and when I change the style from a1 to r1c1 in the 
settings, sighted persons say it does change but jaws still reads it as if 
it is a1, b1, c1, etc instead of r1c1, r1c2, r1c3 etc.

any ideas?

Re: Retriving Authorization code

2015-05-15 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Barbara,

I think Mike is correct. It will not be in the JAWS/Help/About dialog, which 
is what I think you're describing. It will be in the dialog during the 
authorization process. You can start this from JAWS/Help/Update 
Authorization and moving through a couple dialogs.

You can retrieve the Authorization code, if you go through the authorization

Re: Inquiry about the use of Jaws with Oracle database

2015-05-15 Thread Dave Carlson via Jfw
Sad to say, that in my past work experience with Oracle 11 it was a very 
difficult interface. the only way I was able to use it was if there was an 
html-based front-end overlay to the database structure. In other words, the 
actual Oracle interface was very unfriendly, in spite of all the Java 
plug-ins and access bridge. I usually tried to avoid using it whenever 
possible.

Given that everything oracle related is java based I would suspect

gone blind that I have done anything with Oracle products so can't
really say  from personal experience. Even when I could see I was not
nearly as impressed with the Oracle management tools as the equivalent
from MS.

I do know that oracle has a command line tool similar to MS' sqlcmd
and I would expect that to work fine with jaws.

Thanks, everyone.

Now here's a slightly related question. MS has their own keyboard interface
for the ribbon UI, as in Alt then H, O, I. But you can also turn on the
JAWS rinnon UI to make the ribbon feel more like a system of menus and
submenus. I can see how both might be useful, but they seem to be mutually
exclusive. When I turn on the JAWS ribbon UI, the MS ribbon keyboard
inbterface seems to stop working.

Does anyone know how to set up JAWS so that both the MS interface and the
JAWS interface to the ribbon UI are available? Then I could choose to use
one or the other interface, depending on which is most convenient, personal
preference, etc.

My guess is that this is simply not possible. I have to choose one or the
other.

Subject: HJPad

I recently saw that someone was wanting to find HJPad and couldn't do so. In 
Windows 7, this is fairly easy, but not so in Windows 8.1. I got curious, so 
I started looking around. I finally found it, and here's how I did it.

1.   Press the Windows key to get to the start screen if you aren't
already there.

2.   Tab once. You will land on a button that says apps.

3.   Press the space bar to activate this  button.

4.   You will then be presented with a very long list of everything that
is on your computer. Type jaws. It will automatically go into the search 
box.

5.   Start arrowing down. The item you want is called utilities JAWS
16. I assume if you're using a different version number you would find the 
same thing with the number of your JAWS version. I only have 16 on the 
particular machine I tested on.

6.   Press enter on this item, and you will find all of the things you
used to find in the JAWS program group in all programs on older versions of 
Windows.

Hope this helps someone out.

Subject: HJPad

I recently saw that someone was wanting to find HJPad and couldn't do so. In
Windows 7, this is fairly easy, but not so in Windows 8.1. I got curious, so
I started looking around. I finally found it, and here's how I did it.

1.   Press the Windows key to get to the start screen if you aren't
already there.

2.   Tab once. You will land on a button that says apps.

3.   Press the space bar to activate this  button.

4.   You will then be presented with a very long list of everything that
is on your computer. Type jaws. It will automatically go into the search
box.

5.   Start arrowing down. The item you want is called utilities JAWS
16. I assume if you're using a different version number you would find the
same thing with the number of your JAWS version. I only have 16 on the
particular machine I tested on.

6.   Press enter on this item, and you will find all of the things you
used to find in the JAWS program group in all programs on older versions of
Windows.

Hope this helps someone out.

Jim,

Regardless of brand, try to get one with a separate number keypad, to make 
using JAWS easier, and to facilitate switching between a full-size keyboard 
and your laptop. I have a Dell Latitude E-series with the 15-inch monitor, 
which gives ample space for that separate numeric keypad.

CTRL + L is the command you use in Firefox to type in an address.  In

Hi Guys, I can answer this one.  The other day, I gave my computer to
my sighted wife and the print was sideways on the screen, portrate
mode.  I went to control panel, and typed in landscape which is what
you want.  A link showed up right under saying display settings.  I
hit enter and there is an entire dialog telling you how the screen is
showing.  I saw, for example, that the choice was on portrate and I
used arrows and got it on landscape.  There are all kinds of choices
in that dialog box to change the display settings and JAWS reads the
state of all of them.  Many of the controls are combo boxes or check
boxes.  Well, that is how you know what your screen is looking like.
Use the search box in control panel to type in what you are thinking.
You will be amazed how easy it is to find the correct link with the
settings that you can have JAWS read to you or you can change!  Take
care all of you.

Hi Greg,
This problem is not unique to Dell laptops; I've run into this issue with
Dell desktop machines that have an Intel graphics adapter.  I think the
shortcut that caused the screen rotation is ctrl+alt+right arrow, and to set
it back to normal may be ctrl+alt+up arrow.  If that doesn't work, put focus
on the desktop and make sure that nothing is selected.  Then bring up the
context menu with the applications key or shift+f10, and look for something
related to Intel Graphics.  Open that submenu and in there you should see an
option to reorient the screen. You may also see something that will disable
screen rotation.

Hope that helps.

 Hi all.



 From time to time my screen orientation gets rotated 90 degrees.  I only
 know this because my wife happens to see my screen.  When it is brought to
 my attention, I then recollect that I have frequent cursor jumping and
 other
 minor focus issues.  Since they were only annoyances that I chalked up to
 the idiosyncrasies of JAWS I didn't know to fix the problem.



 So, here's a couple questions:



 1.   What is the shortcut to re-orientate or rotate the screen?

 2.   Is there any audio cue that can be assigned to indicate the
 screen
 has rotated?

 Not sure what the shortcut key is that rotates the screen but it must be
 similar or adjacent to one that I use since this seems to happen to me
 reasonably frequently.



 Thanks.

Trick is that when you go to the desk top using shortcut key like windows M

where I found Graphic options and could arrow to rotate to normal.

Certainly would be nice to know when/if it changes...Couldn't find the

If you're using the latest version of JAWS, that's probably due to the fact
that JAWS stops working, and then restarts itself.  It happens to me all the
time.  I understand the reasoning behind it, but you still don't have speech
during that minute or so.  You're wondering if your computer has frozen or
what's going on.  FS built that into JAWS 15 and 16.  In 15, you can control
when JAWS restarts.  In version 16, it restarts for you.

I too used the technique of employing control plus alt and a top row number

combination conflicted with Microsoft Word's shortcut for applying headings.
Control plus alt plus 1 applies heading 1; control plus alt plus 2 applies 
heading 2; and so on.  I know I can change these keys, but have been too

online recruitment tool called Taleo. The Taleo tool is designed
using the Flex screens. Hence, the JAWS is not compatible with it. Can
anyone throw light on this issue?

I use the JAWS version 12.0.1186 and I use the Internet Explorer 8 to
work on the Taleo. Can anyone of you suggest me the JAWS scripts for
Flex? I will be very grateful to you if you provide any solution for
resolving this issue.

Thanks in advance.

 Subject: Jaws question

 Hi all,

 I’ve been trying to find the answer to my question in Jaws help, but
 for the life of me, I can’t find the answer.

 How do I turn Jaws back on after turning it off?

 I thought it was alt+control+J, but that doesn’t seem to work.

 I had shut Jaws off so my sighted niece could use my computer without
 any annoyance from Jaws, but the only way I know how to get it back on
 is if I restart my computer.

 Thanks,

 Jen

iCloud is a very lousy interface for JAWS. I have had zero success with it.

Charlie,

Good suggestion - my wife's a member. I didn't know they still did that for 
you.

I also found MyWay.com, which seems to be a much easier interface to input 
two points and get driving directions.

Dave,

Have you tried triple A for trip planning?  They have a trip planning
program for all AAA members. Not only do they lay out the map by sections
you also get advise on hotels/motels, sights, gas stations, restaurants, etc
as part of the trip plan.

Not sure I have had any success with either Google Maps nor Map Quest.
Cracker Barrel? That seems to be a food store of some kind. What is the URL?

Hi Dave:
I have used Google maps though I find Mapquest easier these days.
I have also used the Crackerbarrel site to plan trips from PA to GA moving
from one of their outlets to the next.

Map Quest really sucks, and most sites I've visited are overloaded with

For the future, you might want to consider purchasing the dongle. That will 
eliminate the frustration when you run out of keys and can't get in contact

Re: Using NetFlix with Jaws

Thanks very much. I've floundered in the Netflix web site, but your

Subject: Using NetFlix with Jaws


Hey all, I wrote this little tutorial to help Jaws users effectively 
navigate NetFlix.

Hope this is helpful to some.

You can access Netflix, start and stop play, move forward and back and use 
the video play controls but it does take a little enginuity.

Let’s say we want to watch House MD.

We log into netflix, click on our profile name and then click on the “search 
link.”

Type in House MD and press enter.
Now you arrow down until you find something that says “graphic House MD.” 
Right below that is a link that says Y Player. If you click that link, the 
playback will start where you last left off. If this is the first time you 
have clicked on a movie or series, it will start with the first episode or 
at the beginning of the movie.

We’ll get to the playback options in a minute. Let’s assume that you want to 
access the list of episodes for a particular series.

Using our House MD example, arrow back up to the area that says “graphic 
House MD.” It may say something a little different on your computer but the 
idea is that you find the “graphic” for the show you’re trying to access.

Now, press home to make sure you’re on the graphic.
route Jaws to PC with insert+[, access the Jaws cursor with insert+p and 
then use insert+8 to leftclick.

This should cause a link to the show to appear further down the page. Arrow 
down through the information and go past “service code” and copyright info. 
You should reach a link to the show. Click that link.

Now you can move around and look at the episodes in the season you’ve 
reached. If this is your first time accessing the show, you’ll be on season 
1. To change seasons arrow down past “recommend to a friend” and you will 
hear season 1. Press enter on the number of the season. This will cause a 
list of seasons to come up. Press enter on the season you want.
Now just find the show you want to listen to and arrow down one time to the 
play link and press enter.

Now, press insert+z to turn virtual PC cursor off. Press the tab key and you 
should hear something like “scrubber ...

press shift+tab to go back and you’ll be in the play options area. Press the 
upp arrow to increase the volume, down arrow to decrease, spacebar to stop 
and start and left and right arrows to move through the show. If you move 
forward or backward, you may need to press the spacebar to start play 
because it will stop when you arrow through the show.

There are some other things you can do in this area. Just explore by tabbing 
through the page. Remember that your virtual cursor is turned off. When you’re 
ready to leave that page, be sure and turn it back on.

This may require a little trial and error on your part but you can quickly 
master the netflix system.
