Subject: Totally OT! How to get a new iPhone talking out of the box?

I've got a new iPhone coming tomorrow and assume Siri won't work out of
the box and the triple button press isn't on by default. Any way to get
it talking or do I have to wait for eyes?
Thanks,
Tom

Re: file explorer in win 10

2018-02-04 Thread Carol and Roger via Talk

Hi Peter,

I don't know that this will help, but if I get that problem, I do a 
shift-tab and then it seems to work properly.  If you listen carefully, 
you will probably hear something like "name closed" which means you are 
not directly in the list of files and folders.  A shift-tab will put you 
in the correct place for arrowing up and down through files.

Hello Rod and All,

I have managed to arrange my folders under  my  user name in a list

I like it. However, I still hear extraneous speech such as "a-h", "i-p",
"q-z". How do I stop this?

My machine has Windows 8.1 which I believe is very similar to Windows 10.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Subject: RE: file explorer in win 10

Hi Butch,

I assume you have not, as yet, configured your system to display all 
folders

in list view or detailed view rather than what is set by default on a new
installation, namely, icons, and I can't remember whether they are 
small or

medium or large.
Anyway, regardless how they are set, you will neeed to configure this by
opening any folder on your system, set it up the way you like it, and 
then

make it global.
This is done by opening any folder on your system, in the View tab, 
opened
with Alt-V, L, and then you'll will get a drop-down with the display 
options

arranged, in typical confusing Windows 10 fashion, as a grid of options.
Arrowing left and right, up and down, find detailed view, and press 
Enter.

Okay, after doing this, you'll want to return to the View tab by pressing
Alt-V, and then tabbing through other options for customizing your View,
namely, whether you want your files and folders sorted ascending or
descending, etc, by name, date, and the latter is what I prefer, in 
contrast

to the Windows default on all systems, but it's your choice.
Again, once you pick each setting, you press Enter to activate it, and 
this

often closes the tab;
If not, however, you can always Escape out.
Finally, you can set the settings to apply to your whole system by 
finding

the traditional Folder options dialog which you'll recall from Windows 7.
This is also in the View tab and the shortcut is Alt-V, Y, and press 
Enter.
As in the old days, once the Folder options dialog is open, Ctrl-tab 
brings
the View tab to focus, and you can tab to the Apply button to 
globalize your

settings.
As a rule, everything that was in Windows 7 in present in Windows 10;
They're just in the ribbons of the application you're using, including
Explorer.
I hope this was helpful.

Good luck,

Rod

Subject: file explorer in win 10

Hello, using win 10 and Jaws, when I open a folder in file explorer, the
highlight is in the middle of the list instead of at the top. Then as I
am arrowing through the list, the highlight will jump around on me. I
have never experienced anything like this. Is there a setting I need to
change? Is there a tutorial on how to use this win 10 file explorer. All
help is appreciated.

Hello all,

I hope someone can help me with a strange problem I have when on the
internet. I am using Window-Eyes on a Windows8.1 machine and I normally use
IE to get to web pages. I used to be able to get the url of the page I am on
by pressing F6 when I can read the url with my arrow keys and copy it to my
clipboard. About a month ago, this suddenly changed. Now when I press F6 I
can no longer read the url with my arrow keys to copy it to my clipboard,
though I can read it with  my mouse when I route mouse to cursor.  How can I
regain this capability?

I hope what I have described makes sense and I hope someone can help me out.

Thanks in advance.
