[JAWS-Users] Amazon ResearchIt No Longer Working

As of Saturday evening, it is no longer functioning with Amazon.com searches. I've tried JAWS 16, 17, and JAWS 18 with the same result. Any others able to confirm this? Dave Oregonian, woodworker, Engineer, Musician, and Pioneer For answers to frequently asked questions about this list

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Hi Tom, It is a good idea to keep at least 1 earlier version of Jaws installed. Personally I have J15 thru J18 on all my computers. The trick is to always make sure that the version of Jaws you want to use as the default is correctly configured to do so after updating. Also, I only keep the

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Tom, You mentioned that you were in a different version of JAWS at one point. If you installed a newer version, it will usually take over the logon, even if you don't set it up. Dave Oregonian, woodworker, Engineer, Musician, and Pioneer - Original Message - From: "Tom Behler"

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

This particular computer is a Dell Lattitude 6540 laptop, running Windows 7. I always thought it wise to keep an earlier version of Jaws on a computer, should the most recent version get corrupted, but now, I'm not sure that is a good idea. Anyway, may try to upgrade to Jaws 18 soon, and will

Something similar used to happen to me on an old laptop. Never could figure out why, but it hasn't happened on any of my subsequent machines. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Tom Behler Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2017

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Dave: I just did what you suggested, and made sure the option to automatically start Jjaws at the log-on screen was checked. I also checked the other option to always start Jaws for myself as the main user. Things now seem to be working properly again. Not sure how things got changed, so I'll

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Tom, Insert+J when you have JAWS 17 running. Then Options/Basics. Go through all the checkboxes in the "Automatically Start JAWS" section. It's likely that something got unchecked. Dave Oregonian, woodworker, Engineer, Musician, and Pioneer - Original Message - From: "Tom Behler"

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Mike: It turns out that, for reasons I can't explain, my computer reverted back to jaws 16, which I also have on the machine. Now that I'm back in Jaws 17, Outlook is performing as it should. I still need to trouble-shoot the log-on screen startup issue, but these steps you gave me should help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Major computer issue after updating Jaws

Hi Cristóbal, Sorry for that last question. I should have realized that Microsoft Accessibility had no way of trying a system restore via safe mode with all the problems you were experiencing since they didn't have a snow balls chance of logging onto your computer! That is surely 1 hell of a

Re: [JAWS-Users] Major computer issue after updating Jaws

The wife and I tried, but we couldn't get past a certain point. Error messages to check the eventlog, volume shadow copy error, windows center protection disabled and as the Internet wasn't working either, the tech couldn't try to remote into the machine. Alls well that ends well I

Re: [JAWS-Users] Major computer issue after updating Jaws

Hi Cristóbal, By any chance, did Microsoft Accessibility attempt a system restore? I'm just curious to know if this could have gotten you back-up & running again. Sure glad you got it figured out though. Take care. Mike Sent from my iBarstool. - Original Message - From: Cristóbal To:

Re: [JAWS-Users] Major computer issue after updating Jaws

A final follow up to this issue. I reached out to Microsoft Accessibility. After going over everything, they suggested that it was most likely a Windows update that for whatever reason went bad. We tried going into the update section of settings and it kept on closing on me with all sorts of error

Hi Tom, You can try the following for your 1st issue, but I can't help with your 2nd issue: Note: The steps below were performed running Windows 7 & JAWS versions 15 thru 18. These steps won't work with Windows 8 or 10, & why they won't is below my steps. For those of you that have Jaws set

[JAWS-Users] Need Help With Two Jaws Issues

Hello, everyone. Today, I suddenly have been experiencing two Jaws issues. Any help with either of them would be appreciated. I am using Jaws 17 professional, and Windows 7 here. 1. When I re-boot my computer after a shut-down, Jaws no longer speaks at the log-in screen. I seem to

Re: [JAWS-Users] network

Hello Pattie, For some reason, I think you have to burp the routor. First unplug the routor and wait 5 minutes, plug it back in and restart the routor. Open I E and type 191.168.1.1 and press enter. The routor should open up, arrow down and brows around and look for a firmwear update button, press
