Can we assume, for example, that your computer is booting up and that speech is starting? Did the monitor work all right at some point in Windows 10? I assume it must have worked for the person who helped you be certain that the upgrade completed. Is this a desktop computer so that there is only one display connected, that being your monitor? Is there some kind of light on the monitor indicating for certain that it is receiving power and is turned on? Of course, checking the cable as has already been suggested makes good sense. If all of these assumptions are true, then it is probably worth rebooting a few times with the monitor on to make sure it is correctly detected. Possibly some part of the upgrade didn't complete regarding the detection of your monitor. Is there any chance that you have a s eparate video output for a projector and that your monitor is connected to that output? I am running Windows 10 and I have an LCD monitor that I routinely leave off but turn on when needed and that is working for me, so there isn't anything about Windows 10 that would prevent that from happening unless it is related to your specific setup. I am sorry if this seems vague or unresponsive, but we could be assuming things that are not the case in our answers.

RE: A big problem with Winamp, help please!
Hi, I am looking for an MP3 player. I used to use WinAmp and loved it. But I recently tried to download it and couldn’t get a copy to work.

Rod, I am not using Station Playlist, at least not to my knowledge , only Winamp. The only audio program of any significant that I am using regularly is Total Recorder, and that still handles .mp3 files both from without and within. Same with Groove Music and WMP. They each will bring up both file formats from File Explorer without problems . While tabbing through the long file extensions list yesterday, I noticed that there were other extensions with the URL file handler designation as well. There was one with a numeric extension that I had never heard of as well as a couple of og* like extensions. But I found it curious that .ogg itself was nowhere to be foun in that listd. I did also try playing an .ogg file from a list presented via Cortana, and also got the strange designation, and it, like .mp3 would not play through Explorer. You can bet that there is nobody whom I would trust more than you concerning these issues. Please send me the folder and I will give it a perusal before I take the step toward restoration .

I have reinstalled, and fiddled around with things in the control panel, but to no avail. The thing is, it works with both Chromium Edge (latest stable build) as well as Thunderbird, as both will allow the use of WE in browse mode, but not IE. If someone could please give me any pointers, it would be greatly appreciated. Oh yes, as a post script, IE is still important to me because apparently Edge is still not able to work with DAISY text books from Bookshare. I have to say that this thing really kinda creeps me out. IE is practically a dead zone. OK, Enough of the drama, any help again would really be appreciated.

Hi, The thing here that I see is that in order for us using adaptive technology, being able touse an email program means we have to pay for it, when the rest of the “sighted” world uses dozens of them for free.

This was the second email client which did this to me. The previous one was Windows Live Mail. Since I switched to Office 365 Outlook, this has not happened. I know that Office 365 costs money on an ongoing basis, but Microsoft regularly improves its accessibility, and so staying with it gives you the best opportunity to use accessible email software on Windows and the Apple Mac.

I am also a subscriber to Bookshare, and find that IE will work with their DAISY formatted books quite adaquitly. The last, but not least thing I also have to consider is Eloquence, still my favorite speech voice. IE though is really becoming a bit problematic on more and more pages, so I am going to have to do something soon I'm afraid. I don't really want to go the Code Factory rout due to their validation scheme, and if I reluctantly move to JAWS, that will be one hassle I wont have to face. Oh the joys of blindness.

I know there is a steep learning curve, but I must say that there is a lot of support available. For example, every Apple store is supposed to have on site training on all Apple devices for people with disabilities, including blind people. I know that the store here in Louisville has such training. The Apple Care for people with disabilities is available over the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. That is more than there regular Apple Care. The Apple Mac has a built in screen reader with different voices at no extra cost installed on each device they make. There is also a short tutorial for how to use Voice Over, the Apple voice and it's software, also at no extra cost, included on each device. I know that it has nothing to do with how it works, but the outer case of the laptop is metal and has an apple, complete with 2 leaves and a bite taken from the apple, as the logo which I can touch easily.

Re: `news about jws
Hi, II 'm not sure about now, but back in 2003 or so there was no diffference in the pro and home version of jaws other than they charged more for the authorization. I had a copy of Jaws and decided to do the pro thing because I got a pc that had windows XP pro on it, all they did was give me a different auth key which allowed Jaws to run in full mode on the pro pc instead of in demo mode. It was just another way to take more money. -Original Message- From: Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2018 9:31 PM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Cc: Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc.

Subject: RE: `news about jws B J wrote in part: "When we bought a copy of Office that copy lasted and will last for years. I'm still using a 2007 copy of office on my windows 7 machine. If I had paid a monthly subscription for that length of time. I could have bought at least 8 copied of office." I'm in your boat, brother! I won't ever purchase any app that's subscription based even if the cost is 50 cents a year! Sounds horrible but I can live with it. Like B J, I have been using Office 2007; even though I received a note from Microsoft that support for Office 2007 has ended, it is still serving me well and I am yet to find a need for an upgrade to the latest Office bell and whistle. I read about folks struggling with something called Back Stage and how to disable it. Yikes, make an app better if necessary, just don't make it too complicated in order to get this done. I'm interested in knowing whether or not the laws in the books can be invoked when it comes to dealing with adaptive app and equipment companies. Look at Humanware; it created the BrailleNote Touch and deployed a deprecated copy of the Android OS on it; it still sells for more than $5,000! How about HIMS? It claims to run on Android 5.1.1 which will soon become deprecated as well. And it sells for $6,000! In both situations, no path for an upgrade and, worst still, the freedom Android offers is nonexistent. Example: In Android Land, you can install and use your own preferred TTS engine. What nonsense if I dare say so! For as long as is possible, I shall continue to look at products in the mainstream. As I slowly KISS WINDOWS goodbye, I won't have to worry about the shenanigans of screen reader developers for this OS! I will not pay one cent for any type of Jaws subscription. Until my WINDOWS machines all die naturally, I'll STICK WITH WINDOW-EYES which still PUTS SOME GREAT FOOD on my wee, small table!

Re: `news about jws
If you think the price is going to decrease, you are living in a dream world. The whole reason of getting rid of WE was to have a "choke-hold" on screen reader users. -Original Message- From: bj colt via Talk Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2018 4:03 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: bj colt Subject: Re: `news about jws Hi Lynn, My apologies if the names I called those at the top of the tree in VFO offended you. My sheer anger and frustration has overwhelmed me. It is rarely I make such statements and more so on this list. I've never been so angry or upset at a situation where blind people will be forced to pay much more than they are just now. Please believe me it won't be the same price as now. That I can guarantee. Just look at the price of Microsoft windows 365 office. Remember, that is not just for one or two years. that is for life. When we bought a copy of Office that copy lasted and will last for years. I'm still using a 2007 copy of office on my windows 7 machine. If I had paid a monthly subscription for that length of time. I could have bought at least 8 copied of office. I could say a lot more Lynn regarding the merger and subsequent demise of Window-eyes. Call it conspiracy theory or not. Had this happened in the up they would have been referred to the Monopolies commission. I don't apologies for using those names because that is how I feel towards them. Them meaning those at the top. Not the employees. I am not normally this way about things and don't easily get annoyed. People that know me would agree with that. I hate to see blind or disabled people getting ripped off and treated the way we are. I recently learned that companies who produce adaptive technology for the disabled and blind get government grants. How much I have no idea. I have a copy of jws and will continue to use window-eyes till I can't use it any more.

Is there a way that I can control if podcasts are downloaded or just saved? For example. if someone sends me a link to a podcast and I click on the link, I would like to be able to choose if I want to save the podcast or just listen to it. Currently, Google Chrome just gives me the dialog about where I want to save the podcast. Firefox, for example, will ask me if I want to open it or save it A good example of what I am talking about is the Eyes On Success newsletter, www.eyesonsuccess.net. Find a link to one of the episodes and press Enter on it. Firefox will ask me whether I want to open it or save it, whereas Google Chrome will just assume that I want to save it.

I will paste my text tutorial on the Google Chrome browser right below this message. You can read it here right in the email. I take you through everything, and all of the settings. Here is the tutorial right below! Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18, JAWS 2018, and NVDA 2017.4 for this tutorial, because they all work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. Section One: Launching Chrome: One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say Chrome. However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut icon on your desktop. So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to open Chrome. The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press Alt+F. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu.

Re: Window-eyes and Jaws, thoughts
Hi, Yes, I know. I do believe however that since they killed WE, they really need to focus hard on making Jaws work with alll the different programs that WE did/does. There's a few things that Jaws does better than WE, but there's quite a bit that WE does better than Jaws. I'm getting used to Jaws, but I still find myself going back to WE for a lot of things. I'm gonna be sad when WE no longer works. -Original Message- From: Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2017 4:14 PM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Cc: Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc.

GW Micro went through that once, and I don't believe Doug wants to come out of hiding to try again.

Re: DECtalk USB Question
Hi, That may be true, I don't think external synths will be around much longer either. I'm using a software synth and I can send my audio through the HDMI that's hooked to my HD tv and send WE and Jaws through my wireless head set or suround sound speakers, or any combination of that configuration. -Original Message- From: Joseph Norton via Talk Sent: Tuesday, July 4, 2017 11:18 AM To: 'Russ Kiehne' ; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Subject: RE: DECtalk USB Question I wonder if FS has really worried about external synths for a while now.

OT, but a tech question
Hi all, For some of the more tech savy people. I recently purchased an Aris cable modem, and a Net Gear router. Since that time my data usage has gone up quite a bit. I orginally had the modem/router combo from my provider. My question is: With me having a separate router if the router is on even when no one is using wireless, is there still a bit of data transfer between the router and modem, thuse causing my data useage to go up a bit? I changed my router’s login password from the generic one that was default and my useage did seem to go down.. Any help thanks Tony C ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Re: Announcement: Brian Hartgen Training Course, Over Easy:The Switch from window-Eyes to JAWS! Being HeldOnline6/1/17 at 2pm Eastern, 7pm UK Time
Hi, Then thing I see is that while there are some differences in WE and Jaws, the windows stuff is the same. There are some different keystrokes for some things, but quite a few are the same. There's really not too much to learn other than just remembering some new key combinations. Some of you are acting like your having to learn some completely new out of this world program.

Being HeldOnline6/1/17 at 2pm Eastern, 7pm UK Time I agree. I think people areacting because they are mad about the fate of Window-Eyes, not just the cost of the tutorial. Furthermore, we don't have any proof that Mr. Hartgen had anything to do with the demise of Window-Eyes. While I am not familiar with his tutorials, I have purchased others in the past. I admit, some I have found very helpful and others not so much. While I don't intend to purchase one at this time, I think the tutorial should be evaluated on its own merits. -Original Message- From: CJ MAY via Talk Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2017 3:40 AM To: 'Scott Wheat' ; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Subject: RE: Announcement: Brian Hartgen Training Course,Over Easy:The Switch from window-Eyes to JAWS! Being Held Online6/1/17 at 2pm Eastern, 7pm UK Time I really don't understand people's annoyance at having to purchase a tutorial. There is free material already available, which they can use, but why shouldn't someone be recompensed for their time and effort in creating a tutorial. When I purchased my Iphone, I didn't think twice about purchasing Anna Dresner's tutorial and it was money really worth spending. In the past I have used some of Brian Hartgen's tutorials and they were always of a high standard. There is free learning materials available for those who don't want to splash out extra money but they really can't expect people to undertake such a big piece of work and receive no reward.

Re: New and confusedBjaws user needing help please
Hi, Why did you uninstall WE? You can have both on your PC at the same time. As far as the keyboard layout, go to the Jaws menus by using insert J, then I think under options, or basics is the option to choose what keyboard layout you wish to use.

I have to admit that while I've been connected with Rehab Services in several states. They have always pushed Jaws. I didn't learn much about WE until myself and a friend were building a website back in 2004. There were several things that I just could not do with Jaws, but he was able to do with WE. So I became a WE user in 2004 and haven't used Jaws again untill now. -Original Message- From: Sky Mundell via Talk Sent: Monday, May 29, 2017 3:07 PM To: 'Darrell Bowles' ; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Subject: RE: Announcement: Brian Hartgen Training Course,Over Easy:The Switch from window-Eyes to JAWS! BeingHeld Online 6/1/17 at 2pm Eastern, 7pm UK Time OK. The real truth is that we have been shafted by the company who made JAWS, pluss the blind organizations. The true reason why organizations favored JAWS above Window-Eyes was because it brought them more profit. The venders who sold Window-Eyes, supernova etc. always put JAWS at the top of their lists. Plus the venders deliberately lied about Window-Eyes too. As an example, their was a girlfriend of a list member, named Carol who was on the list, and one of her relatives was blind, and he used Window-Eyes so he recommended it over JAWS. She got Window-Eyes no problems. Then, she went and got a new computer and a new copy of Window-Eyes, and the assessor that she met told her that Window-Eyes was going bust and that there was no point in going with it. This guy worked at the blind school in Brantford, Ontario. Carol told him that she was under no circumstances taking JAWS and that she had a Window-Eyes expert as a boyfriend and she eventually got Window-Eyes with two SMA's. Also, venders for the blind would also lie about the free version of Window-Eyes for office. They would say things like the free version doesn't work with office, it only works as a demo, it only lasts 6 months, it only lasts for 90 days, etc. These were regular lies told by the venders. It was the profit factor, not the product. The venders favored JAWS because it brought them more profit. That is the true story of why Window-Eyes never made it up to the top. gbow...@msn.com] Sent: Monday, May 29, 2017 8:45 AM To: Sky Mundell; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: RE: Announcement: Brian Hartgen Training Course, Over Easy:The Switch from window-Eyes to JAWS!
