Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding out column width in excel
Are you sure it's not just Insert F1? I think you'll find that Insert F1 pressed twice quickly will open the help topic associated with the application. Hope that helps.

The problem is that the version of Yahoo pops up on the web site until an hour ago or so was out of date. I've gone and retrieved the newest version put it up on the site already and of course took it around the block for a test drive so to speak. So download the version that is up there right now and again follow the steps in my audio tutorial for configuring it and everything should be back to normal.

The problem is that the version of Yahoo pops up on the web site until an hour ago or so was out of date. I've gone and retrieved the newest version put it up on the site already and of course took it around the block for a test drive so to speak. So download the version that is up there right now and again follow the steps in my audio tutorial for configuring it and everything should be back to normal. It might interest you to know that I listened to my own tutorial because it's been quite a long time since I had to setup a Yahoo pops installation.

I had know problems using the XP burning utility to burn Wal-Mart songs on to CD for play back on a standard CD player.

You heard me. And depending on what program you subscribe to it can be less. Check out the following: 1. $9.99 for 30 songs for about $.33 a song 2. $14.99 for 60 songs for about $.30 a song 3. $19.99 for 75 songs for about $.27 a song You download a download manager. I use Windows Media Player 11 to play,burn CD's, and sync to a Creative Zen M. So far so go. I've included a link below for you to visit and get the details. It is Jaws compatible. Good luck.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hello Listers: I am one of those who joined the list after reading Dean Martineau's newsletter last week and I like what I have read so far. At present I am using JAWS 7.500 and on inquiring about how Vista works from a number of sources I am getting mixed signals, e.g., leave it alone for a while as there are a number of bugs which need to be fixed. Another comment I got was that when installing Vista sometimes the installation is aborted and the process needs to be restarted. The latest version of JAWS is 8.0.2317 (or is it 71? and as your list appears to have quite a number of experts, please let me have the benefit of your advice and comments. Another thing: I hear that JAWS 9 is due some time this month. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you all.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Accessabillity of Online Music Services
Emusic.com is quite thoroughly reputable. It has a number of advantages over other music services. It has no DRM to interfere with players. The track quality is high, I think I recall they encode at 192 kbps, but I may have that wrong. There are no restrictions on what you can do with the track once you purchase it i.e. burn it, give it to someone, transfer to a player, etcd. The downside, if it be one, is that they do know, by in large, feature mainstream artists. If you want Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Madona, Linda Rhonstadt, James Taylor, you will not find them there except for maybe an obscure cut or two. However they do feature a wide variety of world music, independent rock, jazz, folk and other styles by somewhat less well known artists or those who are wanting to thumb their noses at the recording establishment.

I have spent some time researching music services and finally chose this one for the following reasons: - it has over 2 million songs from 13000 labels in the MP3 format - you get 25 free downloads during the 2 week trial period that are yours to keep regardless what you decide to do after the trial - how's $.33 a song sound? You heard me. And depending on what program you subscribe to it can be less. Check out the following: 1. $9.99 for 30 songs for about $.33 a song 2. $14.99 for 60 songs for about $.30 a song 3. $19.99 for 75 songs for about $.27 a song You download a download manager. I use Windows Media Player 11 to play,burn CD's, and sync to a Creative Zen M. So far so go. I've included a link below for you to visit and get the details. It is Jaws compatible. Good luck.

I know there are scripts for iTunes but I rather dislike having to pay for the scripts unless the program is the best out there.

A broadcand card is for a mobile device, such as Cingular and Verizon. They require a sym card from your mobile provider to work. A wireless card is what you would use to connect to your network, provided you have a wireless router. Jaws works with the broadband mobile card from Cingular, but not sure about any other provider.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading Text in Word
Placemarkers can't be used in Word, but you can use bookmarks. To insert a bookmark, first place your cursor where you want the bookmark. Next do an alt t for tools, then the letter K for bookmarks. This will bring up a dialogue for you to enter a bookmark name. Type in the name of the bookmark, don't use spaces in the bookmark name. Tab to, add and press enter. To find the bookmark, do a control g for go to. Shift tab one time and arrow down to, bookmark and press enter. Arrow down to the bookmark you want and press enter.

Hi Jerry, If you are going to buy a new computer off-the-shelf, then expect to buy it with Vista already loaded. There may still be some XP machines out there, but they will be hard to find.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, I bought a laptop running Vista and haven't had any real problems. Sure, it requires some configuration and some getting used to, but that's true with anything new in technology. I'd say don't be afraid to upgrade...I tried to make my XP laptop hold out as long as possible for fear of upgrading to Vista because of the problems you described...And so far, I haven't had any real problems. Please let me know if I can be of any further help to you! Hope this helps, Michael Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Francis E.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Question about wireless cards, and broad band access cards.
Hello David andDenny: I would very much like to extend to the both of you my thanks in answering the questions that I asked, about wireless cards, and wify cards. Now, one more question to the both of you if you please. If I use my laptop in a place that has wify capability, can my wireless card take the signal from the wify signal and allow me to use my laptop? or will I have to obtain another device in order for me too use it. - Original Message - From: David Ferrin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Monday, September 10, 2007 11:39 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Question about wireless cards,and broad band access cards.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Michael: About Vista: I hear that there is Vista Ultimate and a number of other other names that cropped up.

It has a number of advantages over other music services. It has no DRM to interfere with players. The track quality is high, I think I recall they encode at 192 kbps, but I may have that wrong. There are no restrictions on what you can do with the track once you purchase it i.e. burn it, give it to someone, transfer to a player, etcd. The downside, if it be one, is that they do know, by in large, feature mainstream artists. If you want Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Madona, Linda Rhonstadt, James Taylor, you will not find them there except for maybe an obscure cut or two. However they do feature a wide variety of world music, independent rock, jazz, folk and other styles by somewhat less well known artists or those who are wanting to thumb their noses at the recording establishment. However, you're not going to get a nasty-gram from the RIAA or a prosecutor over your use of the site. It is probably best to use Emusic.com along with a more mainstream site to meet all your music needs.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, I have Windows Vista Home Premium, and a 120 GB hard drive with 1 GB of memory. I don't know about my processer, or whether a USB keypad will work for using JAWS keystrokes. However, I tend to think you could hook a USB keypad up...Although, in all honesty, I have JAWS set to desktop keystrokes and really haven't had any problems with navigating with the PC and JAWS cursors, etc. As far as what laptop to buy, I'd stay away from HP. I have had problems with the DC connector coming loose inside the computer when I have the computer plugged in to an outlet. Right now, I have a Sony Vyo VGN-N365...Or something like that...And it works great.

Hi Francis, If my memory serves me correctly, I think someone on the list was saying they ad trouble with the USB Keypad working with jaws sometime earlier this year. May be one of the other moderators might remember better. As to using the laptop key strokes, truthfully I work with botha laptop (my personal system) and a desktop at work.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, There are technically six versions of Vista: Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate (which I have on my system). For RAM, I would say that 1 GB should be fine. I recommend at least 60 GB hard disk (Vista installation is larger than previous Windows versions). 2 GB RAM is useful if you are going to do extensive gaming and multimedia tasas on your system.

Will do. - Original Message - From: Joseph Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Monday, September 10, 2007 11:10 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista Hi Francis, There are technically six versions of Vista: Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate (which I have on my system). For RAM, I would say that 1 GB should be fine. I recommend at least 60 GB hard disk (Vista installation is larger than previous Windows versions). 2 GB RAM is useful if you are going to do extensive gaming and multimedia tasas on your system.

My computer has 2 GB of memory and the processor is supposed to be 3.6 Ghz so if I upgrade to Vista what should I buy. I am also supposed to get a laptop when I do my teaching assignments and, here again, I would like some suggestions. Some people recommend a minimum of 1 GB of memory and some people tell me that that is not good enough. And what about the size of the hard drive. And also what is a good brand of lap top I should purchase. I have always used a desktop version and I am wondering whether I can buy a USB keypad to use instead of having to learn the laptop keystrokes. Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

Sure, it requires some configuration and some getting used to, but that's true with anything new in technology. I'd say don't be afraid to upgrade...I tried to make my XP laptop hold out as long as possible for fear of upgrading to Vista because of the problems you described...And so far, I haven't had any real problems. Please let me know if I can be of any further help to you! Hope this helps, Michael Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Francis E.
