Re: [JAWS-Users] problem with chrome
Hello Lenny, Here is something you can try to stop that recurring message. This worked for me on the web site you gave a link for in your message. Go into the settings center with JAWS key 6 and in the search box type the word Verbosity. Use down arrow and use enter key on the Configure Verbosity levels choice. Use right arrow key to open a level. Arrow down to the verbosity level you are using. In my case I used down arrow to the Advanced item. Press spacebar. Press S to go to Screen Message and then use spacebar to uncheck it. Tab to OK and use spacebar. Tab to Apply and use spacebar. Tab to OK and use spacebar. Each verbosity level has Screen Message as an item you can check or uncheck. Here is what the JAWS help says about screen messages: Screen Messages This type refers to text that is written on the screen, but may not be attached to a particular control or read automatically by JAWS. For example, in a dialog box, you may find radio buttons that have additional or related information found in another nearby window. Take care. I hope this works for you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] browsers
Hi Tim, Same here! I use Chrome more than the other browsers for the same reasons you said. I stream a lot of TV and other media, and Chrome does not lock up or crash like IE or even Firefox for me anyway. I am so happy you are using chrome. I like that that everything is under one menu, the Chrome menu. The settings page is navigated just like a web page. CTRL+J let’s you go to your favorites. I am just letting the rest of you know this, if you haven’t switched to Chrome yet. My pages that are full of media and many links load so much faster for me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] browsers
Google Chrome tends to work better with later versions of JAWS. Nonetheless, which browser is best is rather an individual site use case, depending on each Web site you visit. Thus, it is a good idea to at least install other useful Web browsers, of which Firefox and Google Chrome are two, and try to give each of them a brief spin before deciding whether or not to change your efault browser. If you don't want to change, you don't have to. It is also a good idea to try to have a demo version of a later JAWS if you';re using an earlier edition, or to have an alternative screen reader. -Original Message- From: Judy Sent: Saturday, May 13, 2017 5:55 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] browsers Hi, I neglected to tell in my first post that I am still using Jaws 14, with no current plans to upgrade.

Hi John, In my opinion, you are better off just using the security software that is built-in to Windows 10. It is the equivalent of Microsoft Security Essentials. This is the only security software, along with Malwarebytes, that I have used on my and my clients computers for the past seven years--with no problems. On my computers, I still use the old, accessible version of Malwarebytes. I am even beginning to question the necessity for Malwarebytes--and not even from the standpoint that they just can't seem to get accessibility right.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016, Reading Messages
Hello to the list. On two different computers running the latest Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016, I have noticed that when pressing enter to open a message, jaws will begin to prematurely read the message, and then interrupt itself with "Message has 13 links", and then either continue to read the message, or, start back at the beginning. This seems to happen about 70% of the time. I have turned off all panes, the reading pane, preview pane, all other panes that I can find in Outlook. This behavior does not seem to occur in Outlook 2013, but is very distracting in outlook 2016. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this same behavior? Thanks a lot.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creating a CSV file
Hi Jorge, Below are 2 ways of copying your contacts over : From: Adrien Collins Just copy the pst files, in windows 7, go to c drive, uncheck hide hidden files and folders, then go to users, then to your user account, app data, Microsoft, outlook, you should find at least one pst file in here, copy this to both pc's, they should be compatible, the only thing is that the message rules are stored in the pst file, they may not work on both pc's. good luck. Don't forget to hide hidden files and folders again after. It would pay you to create a shortcut to the outlook forder as it will make it easier to copy the pst files without having to go round the houses. Regards Adrien From: DANIEL MALONE Under import and export, in the file menu, choose export to a file. Then arrow once to, comma separated values and press enter. Then arrow up to contacts and press enter. Type in the file name, keeping the .csv extension. This file will probably be found in documents. Take this .csv file to the new computer to import it. On the new computer, choose, import from another program or file. Then choose comma separated windows again. When it asks for file name, you can browse for it to pick it, from the thumb drive is you want. After choosing, it will prompt you where it is to go, choose contacts and follow the prompts.

[JAWS-Users] Playing dvd's with power dvd version 12
Good afternoon, folks, Brian Zolo here in Gahanna, Ohio on a beautiful day. I just got a new movie on dvd and wanted to view the movie. I inserted the dvd and power dvd came up and this machine is windows 7 64-bit and I was asked whether I wanted to play the dvd using power dvd version 12. I chose play with power dvd and the dvd started playing but it constantly keeps going back to playing the music at the beginning of the movie. I ejected the dvd but wondered what the keyboard shortcuts are in power dvd or whether there are more navigable solutions ou there to playing dvd's. I do have vlc media player but I haven't installed it yet. I confess that I'm new to handling dvd's as I do have lots of dvd's with old western tv series that I'd love to be able to play but have been hesitant because I wanted the best and accessible player to play dvd's.

Re: [JAWS-Users] turn in line adds off
It stops the nuisance ad (or it did for me) on the Page Lenny brought up in Google Chrome. The links also appeared to read better. There may be other ways within Google Chrome to tackle the problem, like reducing text size; but this one is in JAWS. -Original Message- From: Justin Williams Sent: Saturday, May 13, 2017 4:15 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] turn in line adds off How does that help us read?

[JAWS-Users] IF NOT AVAST, THEN WHAT?
Hi group, I have found that the latest version of Avast Free is completely inaccessible. When I go onto the main screen, Jaws 18 reads as if there is no data there. I was reading the post indicating that removing Avast is a real issue. If I do get help in removing the program, what alternative anti-virus programs are available which are genuinely accessible when using Windows 10 and Jaws 18?
