Re: work updating from windows 7 to windows 10

Actually, make sure WE does not start on the login screen or when 
Windows starts up.  I got into that loop with it.  In any case you may 
need to reinstall it.

Good morning.  Sometimes memory does kick in.  A number of years ago I 
played around with a program called autohotkey.  It may very well be 
what you want.  It's a free open source project which is still being 
worked on.  Here's the download link for an installer and zip of the 
program.  The dates are very recent.

Re: from window eyes to jaws to NVDA

2018-02-23 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
I guess that depends on what you use.  It's just down right terrible 
with Thunderbird.  NVDA at this point is the best screen reader with TB. 
 Tom has already commented about the UI.  It still amazes me that FS's 
stupid installation program overwrites the shortcut every time forcing 
us to reset the shortcut hotkey.  I have WE, JFW and NVDA on this 
machine with none of them starting automatically.  At this point in time 
I use NVDA the most which does surprise me some.


It seems reasonable to me to receive some support for costly programs. 
I decided to put Jaws on my laptop.  I'd forgotten that I needed the 
code instead of my serial number to activate Jaws on the laptop.  The 
email with the code came from a different address from the order so I 
was having difficulty finding it so I thought I'd try to call for help. 
I chose activation help from the menu.  They had wait times so theyir 
system gave the option for them to call me back.  Guess what, they never 
called me back and I finally found the code.  It looks like their was a 
bit of a support honeymoon period once they dropped WE but it seems to 
be over already.  VFO doesn't seem to be any better than FS.  They could 
have learned from GW and AI since they bought them out but they just 
don't seem to be interested in any ideas that don't come from their old 
group.

jaws can be unloaded with insert or capslock and f4 keys
you can change the jaws key from the insert key to the capslock key

I realize that you can't speak for others, and that each of us has
different needs, priorities, and biases, but I wonder why why some find
Jaws to be clunky while others (such as you) are quite satisfied.  I
wonder if using "outdated" software (such as Windows-7) contributes to
the problem.

That said, while I took advantage of the Jaws offer, I have yet to
migrate to Jaws and have yet to download Windows-10.  Things are running
smoothly and I hate to rock the boat.  The other issue which makes me
hesitate is Jaws' reliance on the insert key.  I use a left-handed
keyboard with the microsoft feature Sticky Keys and have never really
understood how to incorporate the insert feature with the caps lock key,
but I digress.

Good morning.  Hit the escape key and you'll be in a dialog where you 
can find the sign in button.  Chances are you'll be on it already.  You 
can keep the machine from going to sleep by going into power options. 
It's one of the choices in the windows-x menu.  Once in power options 
you can also change things like the action of the power button.  I like 
to make sure the press of the power button performs a shutdown.  This is 
good when speech goes nuts.  Good luck.

Re: Upgrading to win10

2018-01-01 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Hi.  This isn't Rod but I have an answer.  Your files stay where they 
are.  All my Thunderbird folders, desktop items, data folders, etc are 
exactly where they were before the upgrade.  Note that if you have the 
computer item on desktop it will be renamed to "this pc."  The only 
problem I had that took a long time to fix was Window-eyes being in 
startup programs.  I did not have it start after going into Windows but 
it would come up on the login screen.  The WE sound kept crashing my 
machine.  The MS answer desk rep helped fix it once I figured out that 
it was the WE sound that was crashing the system.  Good luck.

Re: Starting Window Eyes/JAWS ey

2017-12-06 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Good morning.  You do not need to restart the computer to switch screen 
readers.  However, you'll want to close one before starting the other. 
The exit Window-Eyes key is ctrl-insert-F4.  The exit jaws is insert-f4.


Do you have your shortcut keys set for each screen reader?  Window-Eyes 
does this for you while JFW does not.

Re: typing passwords with jaws

2017-11-18 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Sorry to be a bit of a crab but a novel idea might be to practice typing 
until you get good enough to type passwords accurately.  I've been 
working with blind students for over 10 years.  They know from the 
beginning that they need to get good enough with the keyboard to 
correctly type passwords.  They do the work to get better which pays off 
for them in doing all of their computer work.  The copy and paste method 
of enterring passwords is interesting. However, if people have enough 
skills to do that they may be close to being able to type them in.

Re: window-eyes open source?

2017-09-11 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Hi.  What you said makes sense.  For me there are things that actually 
work better in NVDA than they do in Jaws which surprises me quite a bit. 
 If you use Thunderbird's message list  NVDA does a far better job than 
Jaws does.  If you delete an unread message from the list Jaws rereads 
the information from the message you deleted.  I tried using the Jaws 
convoluted UI to try to fix this but gave up after close to an hour. 
NVDA does not do this and also tells you how many messages there are in 
a TB folder.  I so far haven't found a web page in Firefox that works 
better with Jaws than it does with NVDA.  I'm still hoping for pleasant 
surprises from Jaws but I'm not holding my breath.  I believe in having 
a commercial screen reader because those companies have more resources 
to keep up with Microsoft.  However, at this time I'd find it hard to 
recommend the purchase of Jaws to a friend or student who has limitted 
financial resources.


On 9/11/2017 2:09 AM, David via Talk wrote:

You know, I too am tempted to believe, NVDA will take over some screen
reader users. For one thing, as NVDA becomes yet more powerful, and
widely known, it might happen that paying authorities or cherities, will
refuse to pay hundreds (or in translated version thousands) of dollars
for Jaws. And due to the dominance VFO currently has on the asistive
market, they can raise the price as they desire.

No. NVDA is far from good enough for a professional run, in a work
position where effeciency counts. It does come short when comes to
certain pieces of software, and it takes some modification and
scripting, to have it up running. Jaws is, like it or not, a
full-fledged screen reader, in many cases working somehow right out of
the box. Sure, I did say somehow. Not even WinEyes did always work right
out of the box; or why did we get the app feature of WinEyes, do you think?

But for the general home user, who wants to write and read emails, who
has already invested in a scanner and OCR software, and who needs to
perform general activities on the net (paying bills, checking the weekly
offer of their favorite store, and lookup something on Yahoo or
Google)... For those users, I am ready to say NVDA already will be close
to good enough. I don't really see too much that Jaws performs, or does
better, than NVDA on that front.


VFO bought AISquared, and in effect GWMicro. Since the agreement of the
merge is not publicly known, we do not know how that all came around, or
what was the thought behind. Who initiated and so forth.

<    IF

the intension was to grow bigger, they really managed; for the time
being. Was the idea of it all to control the market? Well, somehow maybe
they have currently managed. But there is something about being the
biggest and only one in town. You also will have to deal with ALL the
queries. And, though the world map looks far more International today
than two decades ago, many customers are facing ecconomic issues that
might affect their chances of buying a wildly priced product. Somehow,
we could think this to be some of the consequences of the WEForOffice
program, which did open up for even the less bolstered wallet to provide
the needy one with a full-fledged screen reader. Now that this program
eventually will be obsolete, NVDA might be the choice -even the ONLY
choice - for many a private user. Or, they might - if their activity
does not rely solely on Windows - leave the whole computer world
together, and go mobile.


The somehow dominant position VFO has taken at the moment, might hence
not be the fact we see tomorrow. That will all depend much on what
happens in the electronic world all generally. A decade ago, prior to
the first IPhone, everyone would have claimed that Windows was here to
stay. Then came the first IPhone, then the IPad, and today many a user
does not even own a computer any longer. Recently, I did see a
relatively up-to-date Android device, straight from the store shelf,
with all warrantees intact, advertised well under 100 dollars. Turn it
on, hold two fingers anywhere on the screen, and your device is fully
loaded with a screen reader, in less than five minutes. Just HOW well
will Jaws face that figure? Buy yourself a computer for anything from
300 to 1500 dollars, invest another 1200 dollars of software, add on
1200 for the screen reader; spend an hour or two in installing,
licensing and updating your brand new pet. Guess you see my point. You
do all of this, should you need to. But for the user who doesn't need to?


Further, keep in mind, that many who turns blind today, already are
quite familiar with Android and Phone/Ipad products. Being the kind of
equipment many - even school kids - now aday are acquainted with, they
might not even have the skills needed for starting out with a computer.

Big surprise!  You've clearly demonstrated over time that you want 
something for nothing.  Harping on WE becoming open source has as much 
chance of being successful as all of us getting sight.  This nagging 
behavior sometimes works for children with exhausted parents but this 
case is much larger than that.  Demonstrate support for the open source 
concept by supporting projects that use that model.  I'm also not happy 
about what has happened to WE but the sun still comes up every day.  I 
didn't get my way with this situation so it's time to move on.

I can't speak for Tunein on a PC, but the iPhone version has regular season

week, but it wasn't archived, at least not yet.  I like Tunein on my iPhone,
because for $10 per month I get all the major pro sports in the U.S., and
MLB games are archived, and I think this is true for other pro sports.  Just
recently I listened to last year's Dallas Green Bay playoff game.  As I

Re: Reciprocal Idea

2017-06-12 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
You've made a good point here.  In WE it was quite easy to use the mouse 
move by clip commands to find the graphics to label yourself.  It also 
has a feature to pass the mouse over graphics to pop up tool tips to 
auto label those graphics.  You can label graphics in Jaws but I have no 
clue how to go about doing it.  Since VFO now owns WE it would be nice 
to think that they would look at it carefully to find some of the good 
Ideas that went into WE.  However as of now there seems to be no 
evidence that this might happen.  It seems that in the FS world that 
only good ideas come from inside the bubble.  Over time I'd love to be 
proven wrong.  I'm not holding my breath.  There's really nothing 
reciprocal about this situation.


It's up to us to figure things out.  I've found that Jaws and 
Thunderbird don't work well for me.  I have tried to adjust some Jaws 
settings to make it work better without success.  I'd like to figure out 
what I need to do to use Jaws with TB.  WE crashes TB on my system while 
NVDA seems to work like a champ.  Try NVDA with WLM and see if you can 
get it to work more to your liking.  For me it's easier to work with all 
three screen readers than it is to figure out some things in Jaws.  We 
all need to do what we have to do because it's really up to us to get 
what we want done.

Hi.  I don't know of a way to do this.  WE and NVDA do this without 
making changes but Jaws just doesn't seem to handle this list in the 
same way.  I've actually stopped using Jaws with TB because there are 
also other issues that are there.  At this point in time it seems to me 
that NVDA works the best with TB since on my system WE crashes NVDA if 
you go too fast with key presses.  For me WE is still better with TB 
than Jaws even with WE's instability with it.

Re: move to jaws

I'll have to agree here.  Using JFW with Thunderbird is quite 
disappointing to me.  JFW can't give message counts or indexes in 
message folders.  NVDA does this very well.  WE in my opinion works 
better with TB than JFW does except for the fact that TB often crashes 
when using WE.  For me the commercial screen readers have problems with 
TB that NVDA overcomes.  I'm glad I now have all three screen readers to 
use since each of them has deficiencies for some programs.

Re: Jaws hot key undefined after update

2017-05-26 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
That's how they do!  It's always been that way so why should they adjust 
what they do?  Their installation rewrites the shortcut even if one 
already exists.  In my opinion this is just lazy on the JFW's team's 
part.  How hard would it be for them to check for an existing shortcut 
and at least keep the existing one?  When you install NVDA there's a 
checkbox where you can decide to keep the existing shortcut or have a 
new one created.  It's not hard for us to reset the hotkey but it's a 
little annoying to have to do it when all other screen readers handle 
this in a much more convenient way.

Re: Migration of Features?

2017-05-16 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
We'll have to see if pieces of WE find there way into JFW.  Don't hold 
your breath.  In the first place there would have to be some recognition 
that WE has some things that may be better than they are in JFW.  I'm 
not convinced that there's such recognition.  They didn't buy AI Squared 
to pick up WE features or ways of doing things, they wanted ZT, WE was 
just there.  I hope they'll consider changing things like their page 
navigation scheme.  As we know in WE the insert-tab brings up the list 
of elements but we can shift-tab to a list of elements to change to.  In 
JFW you use insert-f7 for links, insert-f5 and insert-f6 for different 
elements.  Even NVDA has used the WE logic in this.  We'll just have to 
see if they have any intention to really look at WE features and 
implement them.  I won't be surprised at all if they just follow their 
existing course.

in making the Window-Eyes customers feel more like giving JAWS a try. I
think most of us feel like strangers to JAWS and that would go along way in
feeling at home with JAWS assuming they want to keep the customer database
as satisfied customers. Afterall, Window-Eyes already has a Jaws keyboard
layout. How difficult is it for VFO to have created a Window-Eyes keyboard
layout which would make learning Jaws and getting up to speed with it a
whole lpot easier?



I don't think a company should be too arogant just because they appear to be

take the game to a whole new level.

Re: Opening a website from Google

2017-03-20 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Hi.  The browser matters here.  In IE the ctrl-o should work.  In FF 
this will not, ctrl-l works.  Here's a way that works in IE and FF.  Use 
alt-d to go to the address bar.  You also can search from there as well. 
 We teach IE and FF at Second Sense in Chicago.  We teach the use of 
alt-d because it works in both.  This also gets rid of the confusion 
between ctrl-e in IE and ctrl-k in FF for search.

Dennis,

You can defer updates on Windows 10 Pro.
You can disable the search box.
I've yet to hear of anyone actually having a program uninstalled by
Microsoft. And they only do it for pirated programs, which pirates
deserve. But yes, in principle I agree with you. Then again, I was
sickened by Apple's stance on privacy and refusing not to open a dead
terrorist's phone, which he did not even own. So principles have their
limitations.
Virtually all of the privacy issues can be disabled.

I'm not a fan of what Microsoft has done. But in many ways they're
really only catching up with Apple, Google, and other providers who
track every move we make, scan our email, and so on. Conversely, Windows
10 is more secure and fine-tuned for new processors, solid state drives,
etc.

This is not in any way meant as a criticism, but as has already been
pointed
out, I think people's fear of Windows 10 is based on misinformation.
There's so much of that floating around, despite resources on
Bookshare and
Google.  There are many people on this List who are successfully, and
happily, using Windows 10.  It's not as if Microsoft is making us pay
for
the upgrade!  It's free for Heaven's sake!  IE11, Firefox and Chrome are
still there, so access to the internet will stay the same, as will word
processors and e-mail programs.   "My Computer" or "Computer" is now
called
"This PC".  So?  There are so many options that allow a person to
configure
settings, the Start screen and menu, the Search box, the Taskbar, This
PC...
The Desktop is still there. Privacy settings and Cortana can be turned
off,
indeed, Cortana is not available with all the privacy settings turned
off so
that Microsoft cannot get its eyes, ears and fingers into the computer..
I had sighted help for the actual upgrade, and I did ask my tech to
take off
all the stuff on the right side of the Start screen, only because he
could
do it far faster with the mouse than I could with the keyboard.  When I
called the Microsoft Disability Desk with a question about something,
the
guy commented that my screen looked exactly like Windows 7, which is
how I
want it.  If I have to tab or arrow around five times to get to
something on
the right side of the screen, that's not an efficient use of my time.
Get
it off my screen!  Smile.
If someone does not know where something is, or what it's called
precisely,
the Search box is a wonderful resource.
Google is still my Home Page, and Google is still my Search Engine.
And the
Search box on the Start Menu in Windows 10 can be set to exclude the
internet, so do I care if Microsoft uses Bing to bring up internet
results.
If I want the Internet, I go to my Google Home Page and ask Google.
Smile.
A sighted person may want Cortana, but Window-Eyes already talks to me!
Edge is not yet accessible, but as someone pointed out, there are three
other Browsers to choose from.
JMO.  Smile.

You're going to have a hard time getting WE 5.0 to work with any modern

WE 9.1 or later.  The web has changed so much since your WE version was

very frustrated because the screen reader is just too old.  Again, 
Chrome is out for sure.

Re: The latest on my apps issues

2016-02-22 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Good morning.  You may have a problem in your wineyes.ini file.  Rather 
than renaming your profile folder or removing WE totally try the following.

1.  Go to the WE control panel with ctrl-backslash.
2.  alt-f for file.
3.  Go to explore profile folder.
4.  Locate your wineyes.ini file.  If you have details checked in the 
view menu your machine may say it's a configuration file.

5.  Press f2 to rename it.
6.  Type in wineyes.ini.save (or any name you want to use.
7.  Restart WE.  WE will recreate your .ini file.  See if your apps 
return.  Good luck.

OK Rod, I just took a look at my last message, and believe me, I wont do
anything quite so drastic as to simply delete the folder, I will simply
rename it first if I can locate it. I guess I will have to use Narrator

I really do appreciate your help, and if this is what the doctor

Subject: The latest on my apps issues

OK Folks, here are the crazy and confusing latest details on my app
issue.

While trying to get to the bottom of my issues, I managed to figure out
that my GWToolkit app was apparently out of date when trying to run the
Winamp script within the apps management dialog box, or was it in what
is supposed to be the apps menu? I Don't even remember, I am so raddled
by this whole sudden thing, I cannot for the life of me keep it all
straight. But the latest is, that since I downloaded and installed the
latest toolkit, Weather or Not now runs. But here is where things get
very frustrating.

When I go to the apps menu, I only see apps that are running, not the
ones that aren't. Now, that is probably the way that it is supposed to
be, I'm not sure because I hardly consult the apps menu unless I
need to
make a change to either Winamp, or Weather or Not. After all I, like
many of us WE users like to set and forget. But the point is, that I
only see apps for four programs, Weather, Toolkit, Winamp, and Tb
enhance. And yes, now I actually hear the Thunderbird logo when
starting
the program. However, I do not have Windows enhance, or any number of
apps that were listed.

I guess all I want to know now, is just what to do next. I'm
thinking of
just uninstalling WE, and doing a completely clean install. surely that
will set things aright. But then again, I really want to avoid this if
at all possible.

I really can't figure out just what I did, that is if I did
anything, to
make this happen. My toolkit was up to date, because I have WE to
notify
me when updates are available, and I'm very good about that. But
obviously something just went haywire round here. Hopefully things can
finally return to normal with all of your kind help.

If all of the above makes very little sense, please check the time
stamp
on this message . I really did feel a kind of elation when at
least the weather app actually started to work, but WE sure seems a bit
lame without the full functionality that it has with all apps and
engines working on all Cylinders. But I'm sure that we can and will get
to the bottom of all of this.

With gratitude for all of your kind and patient help and suggestions
so far,

Larry

Re: Windows 10 is working better than I expected

2015-07-31 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Here's a thought.  Did you ever consider that it really is more prudent 
to put out support when it's much more ready for prime time?  AI Squared 
really can't and shouldn't release leading edge experimental code to 
customers.  The open source community needs more users to test out what 
they're doing while software vendors will do the preliminary work in 
house.

Gary,

Before starting untrue rumors, please make sure you have the facts
correct.  No screen reader makes Edge usable.  NVDA is saying the following:

Windows 10 introduces a new web browser and browsing engine called
Microsoft Edge. Some experimental support is available in NVDA master
snapshots and will be included in NVDA 2015.3, but there are major
problems and this is far from ready for everyday web browsing. These
issues are due to deficiencies in Edge's accessibility support. We are
working with Microsoft to ensure that these issues are rectified in
future Windows updates.

So I wouldn't accept that as a statement saying Edge is working.

Re: Opinion on moving from paid version of WE to free version

2015-07-29 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Hi.  Actually you would need to purchase a license for Dectalk. 
Actually you've already made the large investment by buying WE in the 
first place.  For me the cost of an SMA is worth it for the tech support 
and the delivery of cds for upgrades that use an SMA count.  You also 
can get your licensed upgrade quickly.  Ok, the servers got hammered at 
first but you've had WE for a while and probably have had quite a few 
upgrades while you've had your SMA.  I would rather have an agreement 
with GW/AI for my screen reader.  MS has nothing to do with it this way. 
 The free option is really fantastic for people who can't make the 
initial investment in their screen reader but in my opinion its value 
decreases for those of us who are working with the licensed full copy.


On 7/29/2015 10:28 AM, Van Lant, Robin via Talk wrote:

My last SMA is done, so I'm debating whether to buy a new one or move to the

consider in this switch, but I also want to know if others who made the switch

Re: crashing

2015-07-28 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
For any of you who just want to access your bookmarks in FF the alt-b 
works as expected.  You'll see it in the menu if you forget it.  If you 
really need the functions of ctrl-i you can jump through the hoops 
explained, however, for navigating throughgh your list, using first 
letter navigation and pressing enter on a book mark/favorite this will 
do the trick.  Hopefully GW/AI can fix the problem with ctrl-i at some 
point but until then you are absolutely not locked out of your bookmark 
list without adjusting auto-load or popping BM off.

Subject: Repetitive lines on Web pages drive me nuts!, how bout you?

Listers,

I have been intending to post this question for a very long time, but
just never managed to do it. Maybe having a rather out of date system
With WE 7.2, and somewhat bound to IE 6, if I remember precisely, I
thought this might have been attributed to some new quirk, or an
Inadequate aspect of the old browser, but I ran into this issue this
morning on the following URL.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3069645/Jimi-Hendrix-s-drum-kit-memo
rabilia-sold-pittance-repossessed-lock-wife-didn-t-pay-fees.html

The issue is constantly repetitive lines throughout the reading of the
page. I also gave some consideration to the idea that WE was at fault
here, but after taking a look around, it turns out not to be so.

Therefore, I guess my question is as follows. Have any of you found a
way to filter out these instances of repetitiveness, or do you, like me,
just grit your teeth and suffer through them?

These kinds of pages aren't the kind I find myself visiting all that
often, but some times a story catches my ear, and like everyone else on
the Web, one link can so easily lead to another - you get the picture.
But this is not all that unusual in my experience. And it doesn't matter
all that much what news service you might look at, this issue pops up
periodically.

If anyone could shed some light, or give me some kind of work-around for
this issue, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Larry

Good morning.  The WE hotkeys have not changed.  However you must have 
an Intel display adapter with its hotkeys enabled.  Prior to WE 9 the 
Intel keys override the WE hotkeys.  If you upgrade to WE 9.1 your 
ctrl-alt-arrow keys should work in WE.  If you stay at 8.4 you'll need 
to disable the Intel hotkeys.  There is an article in the knowledge base 
explaining how to do this.

Re: bluetooth issue.

2015-03-16 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
Hi.  Another thing to try is to activate the backup synthesizer.  You 
can do this without speech with the following key strokes.

1. ctrl-backslash to go to the WE control panel.
2.  alt-h for the help menu.
3. s for speech and braille recovery
4.  a for activate backup synthesizer.
I can't try this with a bluetooth dongle because I don't have one.  The 
only possible problem could be that Windows forces the bluetooth dongle 
to be the default sound card.  If this happens the only way to use this 
thing is to pair it with headphones or a speaker.  Good luck.

Re: firefox v34.5

2015-02-24 Thread Marvin Commerford via Talk
There's no trick.  Have you opened different pages with similar results? 
 Are you loading a page where you're automatically put into a search 
box so bm is turned off like the default FF start page?  Make sure bm is 
on and your arrows should work fine.

Hi.  Not a staff member but you are correct.

I think I remember that insert backslash will redraw the screen and
re-initialize speech.
Maybe the staff can tell us if this still works?

Subject: Re-initializing synthesizer

Hi list:



Back in the day, before the WE tree view, there used to be a quick way to
re-initialize a synthesizer, just by opening the WE control panel and
pressing i.



Of course, if you have WE 9, you can just do the control+alt+w shortcut and
it will re-initialize WE.  But, is there still a shortcut key for this,
just
in case anyone is using WE 8.4 or earlier?



Thanks!
