Skipping was fun when I was but a girl but now that I am an old lady 
when JAWS skips I don't like it.
I had this issue previously and here it is again. Last time the 
solution was do nothing and after a few weeks it went away. Not this time!
Issue: Suddenly JAWS is not reading line by line in word, notepad and 
occasionally in thunderbird. I have maximized and tried a few other 
tricks but alas...nothing!
F/S doesn't have the answer (who is surprised?) and I don't know what to 
to do.
Please advise!

Re: [JAWS-Users] skipping

2018-06-24 Thread DGH
I'm glad to hear that someone else  is having this  problem also.  I thought it 
was my computer or the video card.
It is  very frustrating to be arrowing down to read line by  line only to 
discover that you  have  skipped a line as you were arrowing down..
This happens in Word, Outlook, Facebook and actually, all applications that has 
text to read.
While I am at it, I am also experiencing double characters  while typing.  
Frequently happening when I press the spacebar, I will get two spaces.  Is  
anyone else experiencing  this problem?
If someone has a solution, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi all.

 

I have a windows 10 machine and a windows 7 machine, both of which have
Excel 2016 and the latest JAWS 2018 update.  Here's my problem/question:
When I exit a file without saving on the windows 10 machine, nothing happens
and all is good.  If I do the same thing on my windows 7 machine, JAWS
restarts and I'm asked if I want to send information about the problem to
Microsoft; and when I try to exit I'm taken to the backstage view.

 

Is there any way to fix this?

 

Thanks in advance.

Miriam,

It sounds as though someone created a "message rule" for your email so that
it goes to that defective folder. You can delete that rule. Try the
following:

Place focus in a message list next to a message where your name is in the
"To" line.

Press the applications key, which is between the right-hand Windows and
control keys.

Arrow down to "Rules submenu." Press enter.

Tab until you hear "Manage rules and alerts..." Press the spacebar here.

Tab again until you hear "Delete." Once again, press the spacebar.

I just went through these steps to make sure they work. However, since I
don't want to remove any of my existing rules, I couldn't go further. I
suggest you keep tabbing from there in case there's an "Apply" button. If
there is, press the spacebar on it. either way, resume tabbing to the Okay
button.

I hope you can follow these steps and that they solve this part of your
email problem.

[JAWS-Users] PDF and OCR With Jaws

One of the best recent features  in Jaws is  the ability to convert  PDF
files with the OCR.  Thanks Freedom for doing that!  It's great!

Would it be possible to do that for JPG files also?  I can use Openbook or
Kurzweil to read the JPG files but using the OCR feature in  Jaws would be
the bestest.

Hi,

Outlook is not free, but a part of Office editions higher than home ones. It 
works on any Windows version in which you can install an Office version 
compatible with the running Windows version.
Outlook Express was the e-mail and newsgroup client included with IE in 
Windows XP and earlier. It was free. It is available for downloads in some 
websites, but be aware that running this client on Windows later than XP is 
not officially supported by Microsoft.
Windows 10 includes a free client called Mail, but it is very basic even 
compared with the old Microsoft free alternatives Outlook Express, Windows 
Mail included in Vista and Windows Live Mail included with the Windows Live 
Essentials suite, together with other stuff like Windows Live Messenger, 
Writter, SkyDrive (currently OneDrive), etc.
I strongly recommend you to install Office and use Microsoft Outlook, which 
is full featured, customizable and very accessible.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Copying and pasting on the new job

Hey there everyone.

The new job is freaking amazing!

I say that, because I have yet to come across any “in accessible“ tool.

I am learning more about flexible web, to make my job a hell of a lot easier, 
and eventually I’ll be substantially faster than any other agent on the floor.

But, we have a slight issue!


Good job consists of a lot of copying and pasting, while switching between 
windows.

Which is OK, except yesterday we noticed that when I selected text in chrome, 
and pressed control seat, that text was not copied to the clipboard.

The trainer sitting next to me said that she saw me highlight the text, but 
when we posted in notepad, the last object prior to meet selecting the text 
from the webpage and copying it was what was posted.

We are running the latest version of windows 10 (I think now I need to look). 
And jars version 2018. (Again today I’m going to check for update).

Has anyone came crossed the control see keystroke not copying text, and if so, 
how did you fix it?

IT is open to doing whatever I need them to do in order to make me successful, 
it helps that there are people on my team that I work with seven years ago 
while taking calls for sprint and the software was not even 25 percent as 
accessible as the software as were using now. Oh, and the kind of might have 
chatted our team lead up, and said once I’m set in my ways I’ll be as 
productive if not more productive than any other team member. Also sidenote, 
live person the chat client “live engage” (a product produced by the company 
live person called live in gauge) is I would say 90 percent accessible on 
chrome.

There are a few arrows that don’t have alternative text for them, and I’m 
working my way through them.

And yesterday I couldn’t and a chat, but I think that was due to my lack of 
jaws keystrokes in later versions.

Last night me and the help files became familiar with each other again..

The end chat button is found under VE Arrow next to your email address or 
username if your organization doesn’t use email addresses for Simon.

It is possible to click the button, because somehow I accidentally ended a chat 
yesterday, so when I figure that out I’ll write up a quick guide for anyone who 
needs it.

Hope everyone’s having a great Friday.

Oh yeah, and I reminded myself about frames, and I’m excited to implement them 
within the chat program. That’s going to save a lot of headache too. 
Especially, since I think I read I can copy the text within a frame… Which is 
information that I need for my Notes anyways…


With my best regards

Re: [JAWS-Users] More Efficient Way to Use FaceBook?

2017-04-19 Thread DGH
Here is a tip that will most likely make reading posts on FB a little
quicker if you are using the m.facebook.com site. 
First of all create a placemarker. This placemarker will be used in
conjunction with, see more stories. See more stories is located toward the
bottom of the screen and once you are focused on it do a control shift k.
This will bring up the placemarker diolog and it should say, . placemarker
list or something similar. Tab one time to, add and press  your spacebar.
Since you are on, see more stories that is what you should hear. Now tab to,
add to all pages on domain and press your  spacebar to check it. Tab again
to, anchor to text and press your spacebar to check it. Tab again and it
will want to know the text.  It should say, see more stories. Tab to OK and
press enter. Now do a control home and go to the top of the FB page. To
start navigating the page you can press the H key for headings.  This will
take you to each post an d read the main caption of that post.  If you want
to hear what that person said just use your down arrow.  If you don't want
to hear it just type the lett h again to go to the next post. When you get
to the end of the page and you type the letter h it will take you back to
the first heading. Here is where you can type the letter K for your
placemarker, see more headings. When you tipe the letter K it will jump to
see more headings and  you can press enter and this will take you to the
next page on FB. Now you can continue to type the letter H to go to the next
heading and the the letter K for the placemarker, see more stories on that
page. You can continue to do this for all pages on FB.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS crashing

Hi all.

Recently, whilst using JAWS at work, the program has been crashing 
unpredictably.  Is anyone aware of an issue which could be causing this to 
happen?  I am currently using JAWS 18.0.2530 and windows 10.

Thanks,

Adam.

Good evening Jaws users group. I have been working today, on the next lesson
for the W-10 and Jaws group called, The Control and ALT keys, your best
friend. I learned a new keystroke myself today. If you are like me, there
may be times where you have six or more windows opened at the same time on
your computer. If you press, Ctrl + Alt + Tab, and then use the right and
left Arrow keys to see all the open windows on your computer, press Enter on
the window you want to have focus, you will land in that window. This is
fantastic, of course, you can ALT+Tab to the window you want as well. I like
learning new keystrokes for different situations. I am not sure if this will
work on prior versions of Windows, let me know. Happy learning! Smiles. Jim

Re: [JAWS-Users] Trouble assigning a hot key for jaws 17

2016-04-12 Thread DGH
Just a suggestion is to assign your Jaws hotkey according  to the version
you have.
For example I have 3 different  versions of Jaws on my PC. Jaws 15, 16 and
17.
I have  a hotkey for Jaws 15 as alt control 5, Jaws 16 as alt control 6 and
so on.

Not sure why you would be having a problem assigning a hotkey for Jaws 17
but remember that a hotkey can be  assigned to the icon on the desk top and
to the properties of Jaws in your start menu.  Both places need to have the
hotkey deleted.

You should have a Dropbox folder on your PC's hard drive.
Open your hard drive, then go to users, next select  your user name and open

Now go to your Dropbox folder.
You can create folders and copy files into it and they are uploaded to

Hi Neil,

You can stop the announcement of "new paragraph" but the only way I
know to do it is from within Word itself.

Press alt F for the file tab. Jaws will not announce anything, but
never mind that, you are in the correct place. Arrow up two or three
times to options then press the spacebar. You will be placed in a
selection of categories. Arrow down once to display. Tab through the
options until you reach a checkbox for paragraph marks and uncheck it
with the spacebar.

Now you will no longer hear the announcement of new line and new paragraph.

I hope this helps.

The command is, insert spacebar followed by the letter R.
Type in the item you are  looking  for  and then tab one time.
Type the letter  A for Amazon and press enter.
This will bring up 5 search results for that product.
It gives you a short description and the  price.
If you want more information about one of the results or you want to
purchase it, just press enter on the name and it takes you to Amazon so you
can purchase it or see the reviews on that item and also get more

Could someone explain the advantages of using the Amazon.com option in
Research It versus visiting Amazon.com directly?  Using JAWS 16 with Windows
7, I have no trouble either navigating the Amazon.com site or making
purchases.  And for those who find the regular Amazon.com site somewhat
cluttered or difficult to navigate, there is always the accessible version
which is optimized for screen readers.  The trouble with Research It is that
when a web site is modified, Research It often no longer works well with
that site, if at all.  Although the Research It feature was useful and
convenient when it was originally introduced, many users are now reporting
problems with it, and FS should considerdropping it from future releases of
JAWS.

I sure hope they don't drop  it.  I use  the Amazon research it several
times a week and never have a problem.  It's convenient and fast for finding
an item.  I may need to type in different wording to find different results
but I always find what I'm looking for.

Hi,

How do you make outlook always search for new email?  I have to tell mine to
search for new email.  When it open it seems to  get stuck on only showing
the messages it pulled up during its last update?  I'm using jaws 16 and
windows 8.1

thanks,

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading by paragraph in Word with Jaws 16

2015-08-28 Thread DGH
Vicky,

If you turn on your navigation keys, insert V, type an N until you hear,
navigation keys, not checked, press your spacebar to check it and then press
enter, you can use the letter p to jump from paragraph to paragraph.

Hi Carolyn, Control Page Down will go to the next page, if there is a next 
page.

Since my little test document, only was 1 page, this command went back to 
the top.  It surprised me as well.

From Carolyn - WOW, THANKS for that tip. I went over, initiated it, and from
paragraph to paragraph I could jump. I would have been quite discouraged
doing what I'm used to doing. What if I want to go to the previous
paragraph, is it Shift P?
