Re: [JAWS-Users] monitoring credit

[David Casanave]

Hi Gerald,

The FICO score is one overall credit score that accounts for your individual
scores across the three Credit Bureaus and is used by lenders most often to
evaluate your credit worthiness.  If you have one, most major bank credit
cards like Citi, Barclays, Chase, etc. have your FICO score as of the last
time they checked. It's usually accessible via your online statement sight,
call customer service if access is not obvious. Some check monthly with each
statement period and others update every 2 or 3 months.  

To your success,
David

Hi,

Does anyone here know of a site where I can monitor my credit score that is
jaws accessible? I don't care paid or free, but if I pay, I would want it to
be jaws accessible.

Re: [JAWS-Users] linked in

[David Casanave]

Hi Justin,

What are you wanting to do on LinkedIn?
I use it all the time and admit the learning curve can be significant but
that's true of most tools new to us. The more powerful the more complex and
more to learn. The bright spot is that once the profile was set up, I tend
to regularly use only a handful of functions. So, mastery of a  few of the
most useful functions is doable. Use "H' to move the mostly self-explanatory
headings and familiarize yourself with the content under those that you
think you want to use.
Write back if you want some more specific tips.

To your success,
David

Re: [JAWS-Users] how do you create an Outlook folder?

The process described below is an option within the "move to folder"
function and really does create new folders. Try it, it's very straight
forward to use and has worked every time for me in organizing business and
personal emails for many years.

Hi Ken,

The way that works for me is when your in your list of emails, arrow down to
the email you want to put in the new folder, then press control + shift +v,
this brings up the move to folder prompts. Select  the name of the file zero
folder, then  press shift + tab one time up to the "new folder" button and
press enter. Now you're in the edit box to type the name of the new folder
you're creating, after entering the name hit enter and the folder is
created. Now hit enter again to place the email you initially selected into
the newly created folder. From now on, the new folder should appear
alphabetically under your "folder zero." 
The key with this series of actions in the "move to folder" prompts is to
always start with the folder that you want the new folder to appear under,
otherwise you'll have to hunt for the newly created folder if you don't pay
attention to this detail.

To your success,
David

You land on an edit field. Type the desired name.
Now tab twice to the list of folders. 
In order to place a new folder at level 1, press the home key to move focus

preferences screen is reading properly with JAWS. The advanced preferences
now show as a tree view, and so far I no longer have to hit space on a

Hello,

Even though I do like how well JAWS v17 works with the default Mail app for
Windows 10, I still gave the Windows Live Mail application a try. It seems
to work even better with JAWS, and offers a whole lot more bells and
whistles (News reader, Podcast and RSS feeds etc.).

Are there any FS (Or user) tutorials out there giving tips on how to
interact with WLM using JAWS? Maybe a list of all available keyboard
shortcuts.

One of the things I did like with the default mail app is that it gave you
the number of replies for a particular thread in the subject line. WLM doesn’t
seem to do that. Is there a way of enabling this?

Also does WLM offer a message view pain. Meaning as you arrow through the
list of message subjects, a portion of the associated message body will be
shown in a view window pain. If WLM does offer such a feature, how do I turn
it on.

I’m very surprised that MS stop development on WLM for it seems to be much
more advanced then the new Mail app they’ve replaced it with.

Thanks for any help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Using GoToMeeting

[David Casanave]

Hi Daniel,
I assume that GTM operates similarly to Go To Webinar by the same company.
I've attended numerous GTW sessions and the sound automatically appeared
when the code to join the event was entered on the first screen. The
features that I have not been able to access are the message box, in which
you can type a question or comment to the webinar moderator; and , the
polling feature, in which the moderator asks you to respond to questions
visible on the screen. 
If anyone has the keys to total access to this widely used business and
learning tool, I'd love to hear them too.

Hello,

Does anyone know how well GoToMeeting works on a Windows 7 machine using
JAWS 16?

I got some training for work and the school uses GTM for online courses and
I've never used GTM before, so I thought I would ask.

I really just need to get the sound working, as you can imagine, the video
is not really a must have, but as long as I can hear the presenter and
class, it should be fine.

Thanks for the dialog on Citrix guys and the lead to WebEx George, if you
have any breakthroughs please let us know and I'll do the same. 
I know it's time consuming but whenever possible , let the service provider
know when their products are not accessible... otherwise we are guaranteed
to remain unable to participate in what are now common tools and innovations
if they never hear our voices.

Sounds like a plan.
My webinars are through WebEx which is a Citrix trade name and their techs
have remoted in and worked in my machine a couple of times to resolve issues
like this.
It took them a while to understand about my lack of vision and it was a
little bit of a bear to get them connected but if you have better JAWS
skills than I that should help.  They set up a webinar room and you log into
it just like a live webinar.
They use Techs with too few vowels in their names but all speak pretty good

Re: [JAWS-Users] JFW and balance of sound for headsets

Hi Brent,
Check with your VR Counselor to see if it's possible to send an Assistive
Technology Specialist to your new workplace when you start the new job. They
will help you to evaluate, select and integrate available tech (including
jaws and phone systems) for you to most effectively do the work. Their
mission is to facilitate the best chance for your employment success.

The only one Plantronics made I heard of is the SMH1783-11. The issue is
that it has this quick disconnect plug that is designed to work with desk
phones, but only the ones they support. I have a job prospect that might
come through where I'd need to take calls, and if they use a software phone
instead, I'm not sure what one would need to adapt a desk phone connection
as on this thing to a sound card connection computers use. One guy at
Plantronics suggested it might work, but because the amp part couldn't be
used doing it this way, one might get weak mic audio or none at all because
the mic in it needs adequate power. Since custom order stuff is usually
unreturnable, what would I tell VR to get so I don't waste their money on
something that has a chance of not working?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem completing a privacy agreement screen on an HR portal commonly used in job applications

[David Casanave]

Hi folks,

It was a good approach to try multiple browsers to give Jaws a chance to
work. sometimes that solves it.  I consult with job applicants and companies
on challenges regarding access to employment and commerce . As far as online
job applications go, you have nothing to lose by bringing it to the
organization's attention and requesting a reasonable accommodation that
will make it possible for you to apply and test for the position..   

If companies or government entities are not adequately responsive to your
access needs  the US Dept. of Justice recently launched a new online
complaint form, see announcement and link below:

The Department of Justice is pleased to announce that, as of today,
individuals wishing to file ADA complaints with the Department will be able
to fill out the form and submit it completely electronically. Filers will
also immediately receive a reference number that can be used whenever
contacting the Department about that complaint. Please visit www.ada.gov

Ally Bank has both checkboxes and radio buttons that behave like this. I
managed to get one of them to work with NVDA once. I was lucky enough to not
have switched everything over as I was hoping to do, and you could probably
transfer money in to get it at a machine later with the fee reimbursements,
but the online access became not worth the trouble.

 This is not specifically related to your problem, but it is similar
 enough. I feel your pain. The ISP in my area has a site where you can make
 updates to your account, change payment information, and so on. The
 problem with the site is that at the bottom of the page where the changes
 are made, there is a check box that says I accept the terms and
 conditions. Only one problem, Jaws does not see this as a check box.
 Hitting space bar or enter does absolutely nothing. I spent 20 minutes
 using IE and Firefox trying to check that stupid box after updating credit
 card information. It took using the OCR function and making a guess as to
 where to click to finally get that box checked. I had to take a trip to
 the cable company today to turn in a couple boxes, and I let them have it.
 I wasn't rude, but flat out told them that their site was a pain to work
 with. All that to say it might be worth contacting the people who run the
 site and see what they can do. Now whether it will do any good is another
 story, but it can't hurt to try.

[JAWS-Users] What database or Contact Mgt program works well with Jaws?

Hi everyone,

I'm desperately looking for a good affordable database for my Career
Coaching   Access Consulting business. Tracking contacts, clients, and

configuration and/or expensive monthly subscription fees. Ideally it would
reside on my local computers for security but I'll consider online systems
as well..
