[JAWS-Users] How Do I Access Add-ons Residing as a FireFox Toolbar?

Hello, I’m using the beta of JAWS v18 under Windows 10 64 bit Home Edition. I like to first say how much I’m enjoying using the new Echo Mouse feature of JAWS v18. Amazing how many buttons and actionable icons JAWS v17 and earlier wasn’t reading at all do to window restrictions. One such

Re: [JAWS-Users] In Windows 10, how can I truly make Internet Explorer the default web browser?

This happens to me too. I just press the spacebar on ok. Patti Hi Thank you for the response. Unfortunately, the results were the same when I attempted to make Internet Explorer the default browser using the control panel as when I had used the Default Programs app. I also tried changing the

Re: [JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

My apologies. Of course the forms mode options are in the insert-6 settings center. But now that I've gone through the process, one more thought. Did you press the spacebar on the apply button? You don't mention doing so in your message. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Re: [JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

[JAWS-Users] 1 keyboard and 2 computers

I am using W10, outlook 2010 and latest jaws and I would like to know if it is possible to run two computers using one keyboard. I am using two computers and two keyboards from my desk now and it would be much easier if I could run both computers using one keyboard. Thanks much, FRED C. ADAMS

Re: [JAWS-Users] 1 keyboard and 2 computers

Hi Fred, I have a KVM switch which allows me to use one mouse, one key board, one monitor, and one set of speakers and have them connected to two computers. All I have to do is push one button to switch from one computer to the other one. I have had it for many years and it workds very well. I

Re: [JAWS-Users] 1 keyboard and 2 computers

The device you want is called a KVM switch. KVM stands for keyboard, video and mouse switch, and it will allow you to control two computers using one of each of those devices. Hope this helps. Scorpio -Original Message- From: Lenny McHugh Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2016 11:12

Re: [JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

Hi Judy, depends on the application you are on when you press insert 6, the settings open for that application, and your changes only affect that specific application; i.e if you are on the desktop, it will only applies to the window OS settings. To make it a default change, press Alt control D

Re: [JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

Thank you both, I did the shift control D after opening the settings center and it worked! As you both said I didn't realize it would just stop it for that one application I was on. Thanks so much. It was driving me crazy. (smile) Judy & Libby -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Re: [JAWS-Users] 1 keyboard and 2 computers

It is doable if the keyboards are hard wired. For years I controlled two computers with the same keyboard mouse and monitor. There was a switch that the cables went to each computer and the keyboard etc was also connected. There was an a/b switch to select what computer you wanted to access.

[JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

Hi, I sent this two days ago and have gotten no response and I am really baffled by this one. Like I said I have to turn off the form fields and going to the usual setting of insert 6, then arrowing down and checking manual turning off the auto and entering on okay like I did before isn't working.

Re: [JAWS-Users] turning off form fields

Hi, Judy. Two things occur to me. First, in which application do you want forms fields turned off? IE? Firefox/ All? Assuming you want the setting for all, make sure you press control-shift-d after opening the settings center. Second, using JAWS 17, I don't find the option in the settings
