Here is my tutorial on using the Chrome browser pasted right below this line. Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. Section One: Launching Chrome: One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say Chrome. However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut icon on your desktop. So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to open Chrome. The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press the Alt key. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices. Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved bookmarks, and enter on the desired one. To save a web site as a bookmark, Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved. I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu! I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we entered by just pressing alt. The next few are very self explanatory. The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu. I will press right arrow on this. I

This should turn on and off the reader view. I have a CTRL Alt R shortcut key assigned to a Remote Incident Manager program and so when in Firefox I just use the view menu. For anyone interested in getting reader view to work in Chrome, it works quite well but needs some setting up. Here are some steps to follow for anyone wanting to use the reader view feature in Chrome: 1. Locate your shortcut for opening Chrome, whether it's on your taskbar, desktop or within the Start menu. Right-click it or use the application key and open Properties from the contextual menu. 2. Tab until focus is in the Target edit box. the file path for the Chrome application is shown in this field. 3. Add a space after the path text and then the following: --enable-dom-distiller 4. Tab to the Apply button and use spacebar or click Apply with the mouse. 5. Close down all instances of Chrome. Icons in the system tray such as Hangouts or Google Now will need to be closed. 6. Test out the Distill mode by opening Chrome from the shortcut you edited. Go to a page containing an article. Use the Alt key and up or down arrow to the “Distill page” menu item and press enter key. If using the mouse click the icon with three lines in the top right-hand corner and choose Distill page. To go out of Distill mode you can use Alt with left arrow key. This will load the page again in the usual manner. Take care.

It's certainly worth checking out. Let me know if I can be of further assistance. I'm also using windows 7 right now. I'll eventually be upgrading to windows ten but will probably end up getting a new laptop as my experience at work with windows ten has shown me that there's far less problems with the caviat that I'm having to use a proprietary version of windows ten developed for the Department of Defense. I've just found that there isn't enough attention paid to sound and video drivers when the department of defense just upgrades machines from windows 7 to windows ten. That's my $0.02 worth, grin! My windows 7 lapotp here is an HP Zbook z17 which is a business laptop but I'm far more able to do driver updates successfully with Dell as once you have your dell service tag you can then just go to support.dell.com and put in your service tag and the operating system you're using and get any drivers you need.

However, it's just happened again. I haven't decided what to do. In the past, MS Accessibility was going to solve another problem by reinstalling windows, which seemed to me much to dramatic. In that case, too, I turned instead to an expert who made the fix without trauma to my system, although some to my bank account. I wish I had more confidence in MS Accessibility. For certain relatively minor things, I'm guessing they're fine, but for anything complex, you really need to monitor what they're up to.

Hi Marie and all! I use www.freebaseballradio.com To listen to all baseball games. You just enter on the team, then a list of radio stations come up for that team. Try every station by entering on it until you find one that plays the game. You can look up the other team in the game, and find the game on a radio station for the other team. It is the same with football: www.freefootballradio.com Basketball: www.freebasketballradio.com and so on. I always find a radio station on these web sites to listen to a game on. Sometimes, you might have to try entering on five or more stations before you find one that plays the game, but I have never missed a game.

Hello all! I installed the new JAWS 2018 update on both of my laptops, and many issues in windows 10 are fixed. The mail app is almost working perfectly. I get no repeats of words, and the new message I bring up reads right away. JAWS works great now, in the One note app. Also, in Edge, JAWS can now list the form fields, headings, and links. That helps a lot with Edge. You still cannot select text with the virtual PC cursor in Edge. JAWS 2018, with this update, works very well in the Windows Defender security center window. It is very snappy and it reads the information concerning the scan. I have noticed that action center works much better with JAWS as well, with this update. If you have any questions, please ask. Yes, I almost forgot. JAWS now works the best in Google Docs in Google Chrome browser. You do not need to use Firefox anymore to use Google Docs, sheets, and so on.

Re: [JAWS-Users] google chrome guide
Hi all. Here is my tutorial on using the Chrome browser pasted right below this line. Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. Section One: Launching Chrome: One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say Chrome. However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut icon on your desktop. So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to open Chrome. The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press the Alt key. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices. Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved bookmarks, and enter on the desired one. To save a web site as a bookmark, Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved. I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu! I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we entered by just pressing alt. The next few are very self explanatory. The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu. I will press right arrow on this. I hear Save Page as, and the command, CTRL+S. Next, Save to desktop. This allows you to save the favorite of the page right to your desktop. This is how you do this in Chrome, instead of doing this in the file menu in IE. It is hidden under this more tools submenu. Clear Browsing data, and there is the key command, CTRL+Shift+Delete key. Extentions, In here, you can add extentions, delete extentions and so on. These are the same as add ons, in IE. I will press left arrow, to close the More Tools sub menu, and we are back to the virticle Chrome menu. The last two that I will mention, are settings, and the help sub menu. If you press the left arrow

I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices. Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved bookmarks, and enter on the desired one. To save a web site as a bookmark, Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved. I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu! I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we entered by just pressing alt. The next few are very self explanatory. The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu. I will press right arrow on this. I hear Save Page as, and the command, CTRL+S. Next, Save to desktop
Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and ITunes
Hi Andy! If I remember correctly, they are for iTunes 12.1, or close to that. When he did these tutorials, you could still simply press CTRL+9 to listen to thousands of radio stations. That is gone in iTunes 12.7. It probably has changed, since he did them. You cannot use iTunes 12.7 to download media to your iPhone anymore either, I believe. I am not sure how good the tutorials would be except to introduce people to iTunes, and to set it up.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype and Jaws 2018
Hi, I am doing everything that you can do with Skype and JAWS by using the Skype Win10 app. You can tab to the dial pad, press enter, and type in the number, for example. I am making a lot of skype calls, and answering them. JAWS is a little sluggish in the Skype app, but I use it. You just have to be a little patient, and tab more than in a traditional desktop program. There are key commands for skype app as well.

I know the Skype topic has come up recently in the past and how there are some accessibility challenges with it. But it looks like theres a nasty Skype for desktop exploit out there and since I dont use the chat features, but rather just the phone aspect, thus my inquiry. I saw that Brian Hartgen commented on Twitter that hes been using the Windows 10 app and is pleased with it. I know Brians probably considered an advanced power user, so maybe he knows how to work around stuff maybe more than the average computer user. Microsoft accessibility has acknowledged the accessibility difficulties with the latest Skype updates, but as of yet, nothings been done about it. IN any event, Im still on Skype for desktop 7.4 and using the latest Jaws 2018. Again, Im mainly interested in the telephone aspect of the program and if its still workable with Jaws. Be it the dedicated desktop app or the universal Windows 10 app. Thanks, Cristobal For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] Touch cursors
There are archived Webinars on the freedom Scientific Web site, that go over using the touch cursor in JAWS to use Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, and it just allows you to press the arrow keys to simulate a flick or swipe in the direction of the arrow key. You do not need a touch screen for the touch cursor to work in JAWS. You need JAWS 16, I believe, or maybe 15, to have the touch cursor built into JAWS. You can use the touch cursor in apps, just like using a phone. For example, you can use the touch cursor to flick through the Windows 10 news universal app. David Moore Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: JM Casey Sent: Saturday, February 10, 2018 6:31 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Touch cursors Hey.

I will just paste the tutorial right here for all to copy and paste in their word document or notepad or what ever. Here is my entire text tutorial below right now Here it is: Here is the start of the tutorial. Tutorial on Using the Mail, People, and Calendar Apps. By David Moore All key commands for all three apps, Mail, People, and Calendar, are at the end of this tutorial. Intruduction: I will Let you know this first. When you import your email accounts into the win10 Mail app, your contacts are automatically imported into the People app. All calendar information, is imported into the Calendar app. So, if you want to work with your contacts, you have to do so in the people app and not the mail app. Think of it like this. Three apps work together to give you that MS outlook client experience. The people app has all of your contacts. The mail app is where you work with and send your email messages. The Calendar app has all of your appointments and much more. Now, while you are in the win10 mail app, you can switch to the Calendar app or the People app. Many of the commands are the same as in WLM. Mail for Windows 10 supports most types of email services. You can add any of these Microsoft accounts: Exchange, Office 365, Outlook.com, Hotmail, Live.com, and MSN.com. You can also add any of these accounts: Gmail, Yahoo Mail, iCloud, or an account with a POP or IMAP server. Section One Launching the Windows 10 Mail App So, let us consider how you can launch the mail app for the first time. The way I did it, was to press the windows key or CTRL+Escape and type mail. I heard windows mail app trusted windows store app. Now, press enter, and the mail app will open. There you go, you have launched the mail app for the first time. The first time you open Mail, you'll land on the Welcome screen. Press Enter on Get Started. Now, you are ready to start using the Win10 Mail App. If you have a Microsoft Account, your MS email account should already be imported into the mail app. Section Two: Putting the Mail, Calendar, and People apps on your Desktop, or pinning them to your taskbar: Finally, let us begin to learn how to use these three apps. You may want to pin all three apps, Mail, Calendar, and People, to your taskbar, or put them on your desktop as short cuts. To put them as short cuts on your Desktop, press Windows key+R to open the run dialog. just type: shell:appsfolder In a second, all of your apps will be in a list. Just press the first letter of the one you want until you hear, Mail, for example. Now, press your applications key or Shift+F10. Now, press the up arrow key once to hear: Create short cut. Enter on that, and you will hear: Short cut cannot be created here, do you want to put it on the desktop instead? Just press enter, and the Mail app will be on your Desktop. To pen it to the taskbar, just press the Windows Key or CTRL+Escape and type Mail, for example. When you hear Mail, just press the appllications key or Shift+F10 and arrow down to: Pin to taskbar and press enter. The Mail app will be on your Taskbar. You can do the same for the Calendar and People apps. Section Three A Few Key Commands to get started: Here are a few commands to use the mail app. Tab key: The tab key will get you anywhere you need to go in the mail app. Also, F6 will take you to different sections of the app. These three apps, mail, people, and calendar apps have been made so accessible, that you can use the PC cursor with JAWS. Also, no object navigation needs to be done in these three apps with NVDA. Narrator works great as well. When you read messages with Narrator, Scan mode needs to be activated by pressing: Caps Lock

When a message is opened with JAWS, you are put in a virtual viewer so you can use the virtual cursor, just like in a web page. Now, to work with messages: to send your message, press alt+S. To reply to a message: press ctrl+R. to forward a message: press CTRL+F. to create a new message: press CTRL+N. As you type the email address, choices will populate to choose from. To insert an attachment, press Alt+I. You can then brows for the file you want to attach. All other key commands for all three of these apps, will be put at the end of this tutorial.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Internet Explorer or Jaws?
Hi! I have the same results. If you really need to use IE 11, you can use an earlier version of JAWS. I use Google Chrome with JAWS 2018, and Windows 10, and it works like a charm as well. However, when I get my old computer out that has Windows 7 and JAWS 15, IE does work like a charm. If any of you would like my Google Chrome Browser tutorial, I can paste it into a message and put it on here. Even Edge works better with JAWS 2018 better than IE 11. As we know, to use Firefox, version 57 does not work with JAWS hardly at all. Take care, guys!

Hi Mary! It is called, just read! Just press the Alt to open the virticle menu, go to more sub menu, and go to extensions. You can go to the store on that page, and just type in Just Read, and that extension will come right up. Just have that install to Chrome, go back to the extensions page, and make sure that is activated in your list of extensions that you have on Chrome! It does indeed work great with CTRL+Shift+L!

Hi! If you delete a message in the Win10 Mail app, it is deleted from the server.

I’m using the above named program with Jaws 2018. On my old Windows xp machine with its equally old email client, this account was set to pop3. That’s all the old email program supported. There was a setting in that email client that allowed me to delete messages from the server once they had been downloaded. I know that with gmail on my phone, I have the option of archiving deleted messages or permanently deleting them after, I think it is 30 days. I can’t find anything like that in the windows 10 mail app, which, I guess, means that deleted messages are going to stay on the server forever, which is not at all what I want. If there is a setting like what I have described in this app, where is it and how do I get to it? Also, I am seeing all of the emails I sent showing up in my messages list in the inbox in the mail app. That never happened on my xp machine, and it does not happen in any mail account I have on my phone, and it is not something I want. I don’t mind a separate sent mail folder, but I sure don’t want to see what I send in my inbox. How can I make this stop? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi all, I have just joined this list with a new copy of JAWS 2018 installed on a Windows 10 64-bit pc. It has been years since I used JAWS, so I'm the next thing to a newby. I'm interested in the use of the Windows 10 mail client with JAWS. Because of issues with the Edge browser, and the fact that this mail app is apparently based on that engine, I am thinking that it might not be all that great with JAWS until the underlying Edge issues are fully solved. Is that true? I'd like to be wrong, as I really don't think I need a mail app as complex as Outlook, which I don't own in any case. Advice, please?

Re: [JAWS-Users] google chrome
Hi Kimsan! On the settings page, you creat a home page and a start up page. The start up page or pages, do not have to be the same as the home page, but it can be. There is not a save or Okay button for either. I just set my home and start page to: www.Google.com However, you can set them to any URL. Just type in the URL for your start page and home page, and press enter. I hope that helps. When you start Chrome, you need a start page for Chrome to go to. That is different than your home page that you go to when you press Alt+Home. Have a great one!

[JAWS-Users] Tutorial on Using the Microsoft Edge Browser
Hi all. I will paste, right here in this message, the same kind of text tutorial on Using the Microsoft Edge Browser. It will be laid out just like the Chrome tutorial. I take you, step by step, through how to set up Edge, and I take you through all settings and tell you how to customise Edge to your liking. The Edge tutorial is right below. Here it is: Tutorial for Using Microsoft Edge By David Moore I am using the latest public build of Windows 10 Creators update. If you are using anything different than that, you might get different results. When you can press spacebar or enter, I will list them both. If I only list enter, that means that you can only use enter. If I only list Spacebar, that means that you can only press spacebar to toggle something, for example. I have a list of all key commands for Edge at the end of this tutorial. Through the tutorial, I will point out many key commands as well, as I go. Section Number One Opening the Edge Browser: Press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape, to open the start area. Next, type Edge and enter when Narrator announces it. Press enter, and the Edge browser should open. Section Number Two Opening the Freedom Scientific Web Site: I pressed CTRL+L (alt+D works as well) and entered: www.freedomscientific.com That is the site for Freedom Scientific. The web site came up very quickly. I can use all navigation keys, like H for heading, C for Combo Box, E for edit area, , for example, just like other browsers, and they all work. Section Three Pressing alt+X to get a large Virticle Menu: Now, I will now press ALT+X to open the settings and more menu! This is to the right of the address bar, but Alt+X opens this same menu. We have a lot in this virticle menu.a large virticle menu of choices. When I down arrow, I here the following: New Window (CTRL+N), New InPrivate Window (CTRL+SHIFT+P), Zoom out, Zoom in, Cast media to device, Find on page, Print, Pin this page to Start, F12 Developer Tools, Open with Internet Explorer, Send feedback, Extensions, What's new and Tips, and finally, Settings. Extensions and Settings are the main two choices we are interested in with this menu. Key commands will do the rest. Next, I will talk about settings. Section Four: Navigating settings and Advance settings: Press alt+X again, and up arrow once to settings, because that is the last choice. Press enter on settings. You will hear: Choose a Theme light. Don't worry about that! Tab once, and you will hear: Open Microsoft Edge with a page or set of pages combo box. This is how you choose how you want Microsoft Edge to open. I have mine set to a specific page or pages. Now, Tab again, and you have an edit field where you can type in your pages that you want opened When Microsoft Edge is launched. I just entered: www.google.com Therefore, when I start Edge, the Google home page opens for me. Tabbing again: I hear delete button, where you can press spacebar or enter to delete your page or pages. Tabbing again, I hear Add Button, where you can press spacebar or enter and add another page that you want to open when Edge is started. Tabbing again, I hear: Open new tabs with combo box. I have this set to a blank page. Tab again, and you will hear: Import from another browser button. You can press spacebar or enter here to import all favorites and settings from other browsers you use, like IE 11 or Chrome, or Firefox. Tab again, and you will hear: Show the favorites bar toggle. I have this unchecked, because I do not want everyone to see my favorites on a bar right on the Edge Window. Press spacebar to check or uncheck.. Tab again, and you hear: Choose what to clear. If you press spacebar on this, you can tab and check or uncheck what is cleared when you delete your history. You can also choose whether this should be cleared every time you close the Edge browser. Tab, and you will either hear Account Settings or your MSA account link, depending on your account setting. Tabbing again, I hear: Sync your favorites and reading list unchecked. You definitely want to check this by pressing spacebar, so all of your Edge data will be synced between all of your devices. If you do not want this, then uncheck it with spacebar. Tab again, and you hear: Sync device settings link. Tab again, and you hear: View Advanced settings button. This is important, and I will cover that in a bit. Tab again, and you hear: Terms of use link. Tab again, and you hear: Privacy statement link. Tab again, and you hear: Pin this pane button. Tab again, and you hear: Change my default button. We are back to the beginning of settings. Now, let us go through the advanced settings. Next, press Alt+X, and up arrow once to settings, and press enter. Now, Shift tab to Advanced settings, since that was almost at the end of what we tabbed through. Go ahead and enter on the advanced settings. There is a lot you can customise here. Let’s tab through this menu. Press enter on Advanced Settings, and you hear

The tutorial will be pasted right into this message below. You can read the tutorial right below. Here is the tutorial on using Chrome! Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18, JAWS 2018, and NVDA 2017.4for this tutorial, because they all work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. Section One: Launching Chrome: One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say Chrome. However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut icon on your desktop. So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to open Chrome. The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press Alt+F. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices

The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press Alt+F. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices. Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved bookmarks, and enter on the desired one. To save a web site as a bookmark, Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved. I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu! I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we entered by just pressing alt. The next few are very self explanatory. The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu. I will press right arrow on this. I hear Save Page as, and the command, CTRL+S. Next, Save to desktop. This allows you to save the favorite of the page right to your desktop. This is how you do this in Chrome, instead of doing this in the file menu in IE. It is hidden under this more tools submenu
Re: [JAWS-Users] An Updated Text Tutorial on Using the GoogleChromeBrowser with JAWS or NVDA
Sure, Judy! I understand. That is why it is good to keep using IE and get to know Chrome better and better over time. IE is not going to last much longer, and Chrome is an excellent alternative. You do not have to leave IE cold turkey LOL! That is the best way to get to know a new program. When you get used to Chrome, it will really be great and fast for you. Pretty, soon, we will be able to learn Edge with JAWS. I am already using it with NVDA. Take care, Judy, and email me privately at: jesusloves1...@gmail.com If you need any help!

Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. First, I will launch Chrome. We will not create a home page until we get to the Chrome settings web page. This is a lot like the Options page in Firefox, or the Options dialog in IE. Pressing the Alt key, opens the one and only, Chrome menu, with many choices that I will arrow down through. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window.

This is a lot like the Options page in Firefox, but it is easier to navigate. I hope this really helps you get started with Chrome, because it works so well for me. Here is the tutorial right below! Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. First, I will launch Chrome. We will not create a home page until we get to the Chrome settings web page. This is a lot like the Options page in Firefox, or the Options dialog in IE.

It only costs $179.00. It has a SSD drive, and I use my small External Drive for more space. I love them both, but I would go for the Asus, because it is so powerful for the price.

I currently have a Lenovo that I like very much. I would *strongly* disagree with the comment that a macbook is the best Windows laptop. Apple hardware is *way* overpriced. You could probably buy 2 Windows laptops for the price of a macBook. I think more importantly than the brand is what is inside. I prefer Intel over AMD. This Lenovo laptop has 8 GB of ram and a 250 GB SSD. I really, really like having an SSD. Everything is so fast. I just plug in an external 1 TB drive for additional data storage. It's all very fast. I also use an external wireless USB keyboard, so I didn't mind that the laptop keyboard didn't include a keypad. My laptop also has bluetooth, so that would be an option, but I've not used a bluetooth keyboard with my laptop. I have connected bluetooth headphones, though. As far as getting rid of bloatware is concerned, I understand the next version of Windows will have an option to install a fresh copy of Windows built right in. If I recall correctly, it's called Windows Refresh or something like that. It downloads a fresh copy of Windows and does a complete reinstall, keeping only some of the built-in Windows apps. All other apps and programs are removed, getting rid of all bloatware. I think this is the best idea Microsoft has had since they launched Windows. I know if I were buying a new computer, the first thing I'd do is bring it home and run a Windows Refresh, giving me a nice clean Windows to begin setting up. Hope this helps.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creators update, The applications key, your best friend
Hi Jim, Thanks a lot. I can always use a review. When I read your updated stuff, I realize that there are a few very powerful key commands that I have forgotten. Also, I realize that I have been doing tasks the long way, and you give a much shorter way to save time. Even for the advanced computer user, what you put together reminds me of stuff. For the beginner, I really encourage you to read everything Jim puts on here. You will be a power user before you know it. We are so blessed to have all of this information in one place. For example, on other lists, people are in a panic, because they do not know how to put a short cut on their desktop with Windows 10. There are many people who are really lost when using Windows 10, and they do not have access to this information. Tell everyone about this list. When I run into a Windows 10 question, I tell people about this list. I am so glad that you and Joseph have done so much to make Windows 10 the best OS for the blind yet. Have a great one, guys!

Smiles. Creators update, The application key, your best friend This is a text tutorial, provided freely by The W-10 and Jaws group, all may freely share this text tutorial. Author: Jim Flusche This text file had now been Updated to the Creators update, new material had been added. The applications key is your best friend in using W-10 with Jaws. As you have read my complete guide, we use the applications key and its context menu to do many things in W-10. For example: *After pressing Windows key+T, takes you to the taskbar and its pinned items. Use your right arrow to move to each pinned item on the Taskbar. *If you wish to remove a pinned item from the Taskbar. Highlight the item, Press the applications key, up arrow to unpin from Taskbar, press enter. *If you wish to start over with the list of pinned items on the Taskbar. Highlight them one by one, press the applications key, arrow up to unpin from the Taskbar, press enter. *Now use the All apps list box, in the start button area, pin all items back to the Taskbar in the order you wish to have them. How do I do this? *Press the windows key or press enter on the start button, either press up or Down arrow or tab two times to, All Apps list box. Use first letter navigation to jump through your list of all the apps and all the programs on your computer. *Tip, you must have an app or program installed starting with a certain letter to use first letter navigation in the All Apps list box. When you find a app or find a program you wish to pin to the Taskbar. Highlight it, Press the applications key, down arrow to, more submenu, right arrow to, pin to the Taskbar, press enter. Do this for all the items you wish to pin to the Taskbar. I use the Taskbar pinned items a lot. For example: After you have pinned your items to the Taskbar, you now have shortcuts for all the pinned items on your Taskbar. Just press the windows key with the number of the pinned item on the Taskbar to open that App or program. For example, on my computer: Pressing Windows key+1, opens Internet Explorer. Pressing Windows key+2, opens Word 2016. Pressing Windows key+3, opens Notepad. Pressing Windows key+4, opens Outlook 2016. Pressing Windows key+5, opens Control Panel. Pressing Windows key+6, opens Windows defender security center. Pressing Windows key+7, opens Jaws 17. Pressing Windows key+8, opens Jaws 18. Pressing Windows key+9, opens iTunes. These are very handy shortcuts for opening your pinned apps or programs that you have pinned to the Taskbar. *Using Quick access, pinned items. *Now you can also use the Windows key+E, to bring up a list of items you have pinned to quick access. Remember in W-10, we now have what is called, File explorer, desktop App. You can set file explorer to open in Quick access or open in This PC. I show you in the complete guide and in the audio lessons, why I use the file explorer to open in quick access. How do I pin items to quick access? The easiest way to do them at one time is to do the following. Press enter on your This PC icon on the desktop. Arrow down and highlight your C: drive. Press Shift+Tab, you are in a tree view of all the stuff on your computer. Use the right arrow to open any closed folder, use the left arrow to close any open folder. *Press the applications key on any folder, file, drive, or location you wish to pin to quick access. Arrow down to, pin to quick access, press enter. Now where ever you are on your computer, when you press Windows key+E, you will open a list of pinned items that you have pinned to quick

Re: [JAWS-Users] setting up sam encoder with Jaws on a laptop with nonumpad
Yes, I use the laptop layout with JAWS all the time. We need to know which numpad commands you need to use, and then I can give you the laptop equivalent commands. For example, numpad enter is the same as regular enter. With the laptop layout turned on, you can use the caps lock as well as insert. You can use both. Caps lock+comma reads the current character. Caps lock+K reads the current word and so on. David Moore Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Mike B.

Wow, Jim, That sounds like a great computer. I have never heard of a Hard drive and a SSD drive working together. Is Windows on the harddrive, but then the SSD drive allows Windows to load faster? Does anything permantly stay on the SSD drive, or is it just a dump drive to allow processes to occur faster? Wow, sounds great. I have just a SSD drive on this little HP laptop I use, and I love it. When I use my other laptop with the Regular Hard drive, I get so impatient, because it takes so much longer for processes to occur. I am so happy for you!

I have a new computer I wanted to let you know about. At first, I was not sure how Jaws would work with a hybrid drive. But Jaws 18 works fantastic with one. I finally upgraded the new computer today to the creators update. Read the computer information below, before now I always used an Acer computer. But this Lenovo start fast. After pressing the power button in about 4 or 5 seconds, Jaws comes up talking on the pin log-in screen. I bought this desktop on sale at best buy for $579, this was a bargan. Name: Lenovo-710-25ISH Desktop (ideacentre) System Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.71 GHz Installed memory (RAM): 8.00 GB System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor This has a one TB of storage, regular Sodda drive. This also has a 8 GB's SSD drive. They call it a hybred drive. Having the SSD drive allows for fast start up, very fast. They work together, when doing a big task, information is dumped to the SSD drive, and than converted back to the regular drive. This is the best way I can explain it. The computer works fantastic and the computer is very quick. I highly recommend this computer to anyone who is looking for a new computer. Smiles. >From your humble Pinhead!

[JAWS-Users] Official JAWS version 18 coming out at 10:00 A.M. this morning
Hi all, I wanted to let you know that the official JAWS version 18 is coming out for download at 10:00 A.M. this morning. It is ready, because the beta versions have been so good. We will have the audio ducking, where all noises get quieter so you can hear JAWS. Also, the mail app works very well with JAWS 18. I can help you guys with the mail app, and all other win10 apps. Get ready, and be by your computers at 10:00 A.M. Here we go, a new version of JAWS is on the way. Also, by winter, there will be a JAWS update to 18 that will make Edge totally accessible. Have a great one. David Moore For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Any Tips for Using Windows Live Mail with JAWS v17?
Hi Sherrie, The default app for win10 is just the mail app. Just press the windows key and type mail in the search edit, and press enter and the mail app will open. You can go to settings by tabbing, and set up your account by just typing in the email and password. For WLM, it works great with JAWS 17. You must now, at this point, import the MS email accounts like Outlook, and Hotmail, for example, into WLM as IMAP accounts. You can still use these MS accounts in WLM if you import them into WLM as IMAP accounts by putting in the right port information and such. I have a tutorial about doing that if anyone would like it.

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] JAWS 18 Public Beta
Hi all, With the mouse echo feature, it is best if you go to the ease of access settings group in the settings app and go to mouse. In the mouse settings there, you can check two check boxes. The first, is to use the numb pad to move the mouse pointer. The other important setting you want to check, is the one that says to move the mouse pointer when the numb lock is turned on. That way, you can still turn the numb pad lock off and use it with JAWS commands like always. Just turn the numb lock on, to move the mouse up, down, right and left with the arrow keys on the numb pad. If you hold down one of the numb pad arrow keys, JAWS will speak what the mouse pointer goes over. The mouse pad is not working that well for me either. To be able to have the mouse pointer move and speak what is under it, will be very huge once the kinks are out of it. That will really help, though, if you turn the numb lock on, and move the mouse that way after making the changes in the mouse settings in the ease of access settings. Take care, all, and I really like version 18 already, and this is just beta one.

Re: [JAWS-Users] web site that converts youtube videos
Hi all, If you mean converting Youtube videos into an audio MP3 file, here are two great web sites. The first URL is much better. URL one: www.convert2mp3.net It might be in German, so arrow down the page until you hear a link that sounds like english and press enter on that, and you can use it in English. It will convert 90 minute videos into MP3. URL Two: www.youtube-mp3.org That one will convert 20 minute videos. For longer videos, you will need a program like free-make video which is free.

Then just download the file. I am currently downloading a file over 1.6 GB in size so I figure it is safe to say they don’t seem to impose a limit on length of the video.

[JAWS-Users] Facebook used with JAWS, will now describe pictures people post with alt text!
Hi all, Listen to this. I was just on Facebook with JAWS, and I noticed that the pictures people post were being described a bit with alt text. You do not get a lot of description, but I heard something like: may contain two people smiling clos up, or Two people standing in nature and one is smiling. I think this is so great that this alt text can now do this in Facebook. Check it out. I use the mobile web site of Facebook.

Re: [JAWS-Users] online backup services
Hi, One Drive and Google Drive are both very accessible. Google Drive gives you 15 gig of storage. One Drive, only gives you 5 gig of storage. Of course, this is if you do not want to pay money. There are small fees to get much more storage with both One Drive and Google Drive. The same thing holds for Drop Box. Take care.
