Re: installing Chrome

[john.falter via Jfw]

I have the same configuration and I can enter settings by:
1 press alt to get into the menu.
2 arrow up to reach settings.
3 press shift plus enter.
In several seconds you will get a message saying "loading".
Then you will be able to select your settings.
Chrome seems to want shift plus enter for many links.

Stan,

That window was, I believe, a Google page where you can adjust settings. You
can go back to that page by going into the Chrome menu with the alt key,
then arrowing up to "settings" and pressing enter.

Note that on my system, I cannot get Chrome's "settings" to open ever since
I installed JAWS 17, but this doesn't appear to be a common problem. I wish
I could find a solution for myself.

OK, you have convinced me to try Chrome. When I tried to install I got a
window which jaws would not read. I found out it wanted me to input a
password to sign in to get bookmarks, favorites and settings and passwords
from (I guess) other browsers transferred to my new Chrome.I have 3
questions about this.
1. Do I want to do this?
2. If so, just what password is wanted?
3. If I do not want to do this, how do I get past this window to the rest of
the installation?

Try control plus enter for some of those.

Two tips:

I kept getting a warning about Chrome not being the default. I finally heard that JAWS 
was telling me to press alt-shift-a. When I did so, I tabbed through to "Don't ask

Control-d works to create a favorite, but initially I couldn't edit the name

•Enter 'RSS Feed Reader' in the search box (top left)


•Press your 'Enter' key


•In the results click the '+ Add to Chrome' button next to 'RSS Feed

Subject: Jaws 17 Download Links & What's New

Hi All,

Below are the direct download links for Jaws 17 for both 32 & 64 bit
systems.  Also, what's new is below the download links.

32 Bit:

http://files.freedomscientific.com/WebFiles/JAWS/J17.0.1010enu-x86.exe

64 Bit:

http://files.freedomscientific.com/WebFiles/JAWS/J17.0.1010enu-x64.exe

What's new:

JAWS 17 Features
Smart Navigation, More Efficient Interaction with Complex Web Pages and
Applications

Today and in the future, users will be faced with an increased need to work
with complex web forms, tables, and even applications that run inside of a
web browser. This will impact your day to day interactions with services
on-line such as banking and shopping, in addition to many web apps found in
both companies and government agencies. For instance, Internet Explorer can
be used to log onto a Microsoft SharePoint server to collaborate with other
co-workers and create and store documents. The new Smart NavigationT feature
is designed to make it more efficient when navigating web-based applications
with the Virtual Cursor as the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW or CTRL+LEFT and
CTRL+RIGHT ARROW commands move by control instead of character and word.
This makes navigation such as moving across toolbars, tab strips, and
navigation links more like navigating around a desktop application. Pressing
the Say Character, Say Word, or Say Line commands twice quickly changes to
the traditional navigation by character, word, line, sentence, and paragraph
so you can review the text of the control. Smart Navigation resumes when you
move to a different control by pressing UP or DOWN ARROW or TAB.
Alternatively, you can use the INSERT+X command to quickly toggle between
Smart Navigation and the more traditional character and word navigation
depending on the type of web site you are navigating.


For example, if you use the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW keys to move across a tab
strip, you might hear JAWS announce something like; "Home tab selected,"
"Insert
tab," and "Page Layout tab." If you wanted to review the items on the tab
strip character by character, press the Say Character (NUM PAD 5), Say Word
(INSERT+NUM PAD 5), or Say Line (INSERT+UP ARROW) commands twice quickly.
You can now navigate by character or word until you press DOWN ARROW to move
away from the tab strip to another control.

Smart Navigation is off by default. To turn it on, there are a few ways.

The quickest way to enable Smart Navigation is through the Startup Wizard
which automatically launches after JAWS is installed. When the wizard
starts, select the Next button until you reach the Common Options page. You
will be focused on a group of radio buttons where you can use the ARROW keys
to choose the Smart Navigation option you want to use (Controls and Tables
or Controls). Pressing TAB moves you to another group of radio buttons that
allow you to select how Forms Mode activates. For the best experience with
Smart Navigation, it is recommended that users set Forms Mode to Semi-Auto
or Manual.
This prevents JAWS from unexpectedly turning on Forms Mode while navigating
with the ARROW keys. Once you have changed the options you want, continue
selecting Next until you reach the Braille Settings page and then select
Finish to save your changes. Smart Navigation will now be enabled for any
environments that use the Virtual Cursor.

Alternatively, Smart Navigation can be configured through Settings Center or
Quick Settings. For

Hello Ann:
I frequently use Mapquest successfully:
1. Go to the Mapquest site,
2. Arrow down until you hear "GET DIRECTIONS"
(This doesn't look like a link, but it acts as a link)
3. Press enter or space bar,
4. Use quick key E twice for the start and end addresses,
5. Use the quick F to go to "GET DIRECTIONS,
6. Press enter or space bar to get the directions.
7. You can skip a lot of junk by pressing T for the table of turn by 
turn directions.

Re: key to delete messages

[john.falter via Jfw]

While you are in the message, press the delete key.
You can probably use the delete key from tree view when the message you 
want to delete is highlighted.

Re: Registry Cleaner

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hello Julie:
The registry is a database full of information determining how your PC 
should work.

Various programs write in this database.
Installing and uninstalling programs and apps change the registry.
Sometimes uninstall doesn't remove all that was originally written to 
the registry.
This makes the large registry even larger than it needs to be and leaves 
old pieces that can cause your PC to be slow or even misprocess some 
activity.
You might use a registry cleaner to remove unwanted fragments of 
uninstalled apps and programs.

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?

Re: Word 2010 has been crashing lately

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hi Adrian:
In the last three months three things could have changed:
1. Word2010--not likely.
2. JAWS16--certainly including the update for Win 10.
3. Your PC--possibly if you got an unfortunate windows update or added 
or removed some software.

Can you restore your pc to a point before the trouble started?


On 8/5/2015 8:36 AM, Adrian Spratt via Jfw wrote:

Hi. Word 2010 was always stable for me until the last few weeks. I've spoken to 
my tech guy who says none of his clients are having this problem. I'm the only 
one who has JAWS, which suggests the problem may lie with one of the recent 
JAWS updates and its interaction with Word and other programs running in the 
background.

I'll pause typing, and Word will announce it is closing. Usually it comes back 
quickly, but my focus has shifted to the top of the document. Once in a great 
while it doesn't come back, and I've lost some data this way. Fortunately, I've 
long made a practice of saving every few minutes, so this isn't a serious 
problem, but it is a distraction.

I located online instructions for running a Word 2010 repair, but my tech guy 
discourages me from taking this step because he's convinced the problem isn't 
with Word.

So, my question is whether anyone else has experienced problems along these lines in recent weeks? 
I'd like to contact FS and not have them come back with the standard, and I suppose understandable, 
We can't replicate... and We haven't received reports..., etc.

it.  I know this works because I've done it manually.

So, I want a simple script, which I've assigned to Windows down
arrow.

The first script command is the ByPass command, and I think that
works.

I'm then thinking I should send the TypeKey command followed with
the parameter (DownArrow).

So the line reads:

TypeKey (DownArrow)

Well, I get a compile error on the TypeKey command.

I think I am overlooking something pretty simple.

as the parameter.

 You could try random keys and hope you find it but you might
 accidentally mute your sound or disable the network or something

Re: doing a jaws repair

[john.falter via Jfw]

Re: JAWS Repair David Whitehead 12/23/2013 9:33… xpc

The steps below are the best, most in depth, and most thorough way of
repairing Jaws according to Freedom Scientific Tech Support.
Note; jaws11 is the example, however, this will work for 12 13 14 15.
1. Place a copy of the Jaws executible version that you want to repair into
the main root of the  C  drive.  For example; If you are running Jaws11
most recent you would paste a copy of  J11.0.1430-32bit.exe  into the main
root of the  C  drive.  To open the main  root of the  C  drive, go to
the desktop, press enter on My Computer, press enter on Local disk C, and
now you have the main root of the  C  drive open.
2. With the Jaws  .exe  pasted into the C drive, highlight the  .exe ,
and press F2 as if you were going to edit this line of text.  now press
control + C to copy this Jaws executible, press escape to close the edit
field, and press Alt + F4 to close the C drive.
What you want to do is place just the title of the Jaws version into the
Windows Run Dialogue box and not the file.  If you were to place the Jaws
executable into the Run box without copying as you did as per the
instructions above you would have pasted the whole file into the Run Box
instead of just the title.
3. Now that you have just the title copied to the clipboard, press Windows
key + R to open the Run Dialogue Box.  Type, remember to type a capitalC ,
C:\  without the quotes or
spaces and press control + V to paste the Jaws title, press your end key to
take the cursor to the end of the title and type in the following  /type
repair without the quotes but, with the spaces .  Below is what your line
of text should look / read like.

C:\J15.0.5056ENU-64bit.exe /type repair

Read character by character to make sure you have put in the proper spaces,
Forward  back slashes and text.  press the home key to go to the front of
the title and press enter to start the repair.

Subject: PlaceMarkers and JAWS

With so much good Internet advice flying around on this list lately,
I thought I would raise a question that has been bugging me.

I use PlaceMarkers frequently, especially with Web applications that
I use all the time, including a document management Web App that I
access (keep loaded all the time) daily.

I'm wondering if there is a strategy to ensure that PlaceMarkers
always work.  Frankly, the PlaceMarkers I have set tend to remain,
but the k key, which is supposed serially to jump from placeMarker to
PlaceMarker often skips PlaceMarkers that I know are there.
Sometimes, after JAWS has skipped over a PlaceMarker I can hit shift
K to go backwards, and sometimes JAWS will find the shy PlaceMarker.
Sometimes it does not.

Years ago, I had the same problem with WindowEyes, and have been
assuming that PlaceMarkers are just flakey and not terribly reliable
because of the peculiarities of the Net.

No one has told me that, and it occurred to me that I perhaps am
doing something wrong.

Here is what I do:

1.  Press  Control plus windows plus K

2.  Choose Add PlaceMarker

3.  accept the default name, link to text, use the default text (if I
know it is going to be constant), and choose domain only if I know
the element will always be on screen within the application.

Linking to text seems like it ought to increase the reliability of
the PlaceMarker, but I do not think that is true.  Is it possible
that the opposite is true?

I think I'm making the right choice in indicating when it should be
linked to the domain instead of the specific page, but perhaps my
thinking is backwards.

If everyone else has the same reliability issues, then I'll continue
with my thought that PlaceMarkers are just flakey.

Hi everyone:
Thanks for the helpful remarks.
It turns out that the book in question has densly packed tiny print thus

The cursor inconsistancy stems from the fact that zoom was set to 200.
My wife agrees.

Re: Simple Web-Based Driving Directions, Please

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hi Brad:
It seems to me that the user interface for Google Maps and Mapquest 
changes from time to time forcing us to constantly adapt to whatever 
those companies think their users will like.

Honestly, if you can get Google Maps to use the classic mode, it works 
well. Here are some instructions, which I can't get to work, because, 
after all, it's Google. But you may have better luck. One time I got 
it to work, and it was great. I just tried and failed. Good luck; it's 
a crap shoot:

https://support.google.com/maps/answer/3045828?hl=en

I'm using MapQuest these days myself, and I don't know if I did 
something to put it into an easier to use mode or if the way I have it 
is just the default, but it works well for me.

Re: JAWS cursor with Firefox

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hi Bill:
I tried the same procedure and got no good results.
For several releases those changes we were advised to make were already 
made and still no joy.

The JAWS cursor seemsto work well in Thunderbird, but not in Firefox.
Some Firefox links don't work for JAWS or NVDA.


On 3/6/2015 12:06 PM, Bill White via Jfw wrote:

Does anyone know how to allow reading web pages with the JAWS cursor in the

I tried doing what someone advised in the following manner:


Going to the about:config in Firefox,
Change the
gfx.direct2d.disabled with a default value of False.
to true
Change the
layers.acceleration.disabled with a default value of False.
to true.

However this still only gives me a couple of graphic symbols when trying to 
read with the JAWS cursor.

Is there something else which needs to be changed in the newest versions of 
Firefox to allow reading with the JAWS cursor, or is it now an impossibility?

Thank you.

With JAWS15 and Thunderbird 31.4 the pc cursor seems to work properly, 
but I get nothing from the JAWS cursor.

something off to make it read nicely with JAWS, or if it's just a new 
feature of Thunderbird 31. Is anybody having problems navigating the 
new Thunderbird versions? On a side note, I'm having some issues using 
automated batch files to compose messages in Thunderbird 31, and I'm 
not sure if this is related to JAWS or not. That is, I can't tell if 
text just isn't being read to me, or if it really isn't there.  So in 
short, is Thunderbird 31 funky with JAWS 15, or is it me?

Re: Can't access web pages

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hello Gezim:
I have no idea why you can't open some websites, but one thing you can 
do is to restore your system to before the windows update.

First try to determine how far back to restore.
press the windows key
type check
arrow down to check for updates and press enter.
Tab to Update history and find the date of the last update.
Then restore your system.
press the windows key.
type restore.
Follow the directions.
If you've never done this before, find a friend to walk you through the 
process or get your pc to a repair shop.

Re: Temporary FireFox hang

Here's a follow-up to my May question about Firefox hangs:

No explanation.
I rarely use Webvisum so will leave it out of my Firefox for now.

Re: status line

Hello:
JAWSKEY plus 3 (the 3 above the letter e on the keyboard) allows keys 
that react with JAWS to be passed to the active program without reacting 
to JAWS.
A not very useful example would be JAWSKEY plus 3 followed by JAWSKEY 
plus 1 generates a one rather that entering the keyboard help function.

Good morning everyone I am having problems with Firefox and I have windows 8.1 
Jaws 15 and the latest Firefox.

First I yesterday had some help from a friend to help set up Firefox and Google 
Advance search and we got a message it couldn’t find it so we went to internet 
Explore and did the same thing and we were able to add it. I am at the point of 
wanting to learn to do searches and Firefox is my main user for the net but it 
seems to be giving me problems.

If you know a setting please give steps in an easy way for me to follow.

Does others find that Firefox repeat things like when you open it. Echo is off 
my friend checked and turned that off. Is there anything in Jaws to help with 
this? If I haven’t written this for you to understand please ask questions and 
I will answer Louise and Hawk

I've noticed that ever since upgrading to FF 29. It happens every time I
open a new session of Firefox. It is annoying chatter, but the webpage does

I too would like to know how to get rid of this message.

Re: Internet Explorer To Firefox

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hi JAWS users:
While the major IE security breechwas recently patched, it's worth 
remembering that FireFox allows use of WebVisum for solving CAPTCHAs as 
well as other visual functions.

Firefox and Internet Explorer are virtually interoperable with JAWS.

The bigger question is, on what operating system are you running IE that
your university suspects security problems? In fact, Microsoft just released
some security-fix patches this past week for IE version
11 on Windows 7, which makes me think your college is still on XP, or an
older version (perhaps 9?) of Internet Explorer.

Hello, everyone.

The University where I teach is very strongly urging all of us to
switch from Internet Explorer to another internet browser such as
Firefox, in light of recent Internet Explorer security issues.

I'm seriously considering making the switch to firefox, and would like
to know how much of a transition this will be in terms of basic
internet navigation.

Does Jaws operate in basically the same way with Firefox as it does
with Internet Explorer?

In other words, to the same basic Jaws key strokes and commands work
with Firefox?

I'm using Windows 7 and Jaws 14 here.

Thank you!

Re: Attributes

[john.falter via Jfw]

Hi Adrian:
There are two ways to change the behavior, and they are not consistent:
The first way is to use the space bar to cycle between 21 different schemes.
The other is to modify an existing scheme by pressing the space bar. 
That'sthe method I didn't want to try.

I did try the cycling approach, and the default is CLASSIC.


On 5/16/2014 8:36 AM, Adrian Spratt via Jfw wrote:

John,

Thank you for looking into this, and I'm glad you didn't take the risk of 
opening the classic scheme.

The behavior on my system seems different. For example, pressing the right arrow on 
speech and sounds in the settings center does nothing. However, pressing 
either enter or spacebar activates it, one way or the other. I'm having difficulty 
establishing consistency.

So, I've just downloaded FS's training module on speech and sounds. I'm long 
overdue in figuring out this aspect of JAWS.

Hi Adrian:
How were you experimenting with sounds?
If you open settings center, and press s until you reach speech and
sounds, arrow to the right to open, you will see three sub-selections.
the first selection lets you select one of 21 speech settings.
The third selection lets you modify one of those 21 speech settings.
As to clickable and mouseover, try the JAWS dictionary. You could
substitute a sound or blank for those words.
I looked into settings center, but I didn't want to risk accidentally
changing any of my schemes.

Any suggestions for how I can stop these verbalizations?

My object was to stop JAWS saying clickable and mouseover without cutting

Re: Tab key and other crap

[john.falter via Jfw]

Jean:
I'm using JAWS 15.9023 and can center text in Word 2007, and my tab key 
works as it should.

Go figure!

Replying to my own message here.

I just reverted to Jaws 15.0.7023. Now Control-E works in Word to 
center text, and the tab key works properly. Changing the tab key like 
that would be like saying the spacebar is now the bacspace key. You 
just don't mess with normal keyboard function keys like that. Is this 
change in version 923 intentional? And how did they break control-E 
for centering? It just does nothing now with that version of Jaws loaded.


Thank God for older versions.

Subject: Tab key and other crap

Just got back from a holiday, found there was a Jaws update and 
stupidly did it. Using latest Jaws, Word 2013 as well.


Why on earth does the tab key not work now? I am on a work deadline, 
and spent endless time only to discover that a normal tab is now done 
with shift-tab. Who would have dreamed that one up? Very backward.


In Word, control-E to center text no longer works for me. Is this a 
Word change or a Jaws screw-up? I also find I can no longer use the 
normal tab or shift-tab in dialogue boxes. If I want to recheck a 
field, I have to cycle around again with the very frustrrating shift-tab.


Sorry, I’m way behind on list messages as I’ve been away. Sorry if 
this has been talked about already. Is there something I can do to fix 
this other than going back to a previous Jaws version and registering 
my dissatisfaction with FS?
