[JAWS-Users] internet explorer download problem

2011-06-01 Thread Fanus
Hello List
I don't know if the below described problem is a jfw or 
internet explorer problem. All of a sudden when I enter on a 
download link I hear a click through the PC speaker but the 
link does not start the download or open a new page.
Can anyone please assist?
Regards
Fanus

hi, sometimes when things refuse to download for me, I usually do a force 
activate link. Like when I go to the links list dialog and locate the link 
that I want, such as a download link, I will hit tab until it says activate 
link.



If it still doesn't work, you can try hitting the applications key and 
choosing save target as. That's still the same as downloading a file that 
you want.


These techneques usually work for me.

But I don't use IE anymore, so I never get that problem as much.

Hope I helped.

I seem to be having a similar problem. Are you using IE 8 or 9? when you 
download, are you prompted with a sound or message? are you hitting alt-n to 
open the prompt to run or save the file?
 
Unfortunately, when I try to reinstall JFW latest build for 12, I get a windows 
message stating the program has already been installed and aborts the operation 
all together. True, the program is installed on my system, but not working 
correctly.
 
not to get off topic, but try the above for the information bar or as someone 
suggested, save to target to see if that rememdies the problem.
 
HTH!

Best Regards, Cornell
