Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws & Speak Dropbox
Hi, I know it confused me at first I wasn't sure if it meant it'd speak updates to drop box itself or whether it meant it was checking for updates to the scripts themselves. I'm glad it helped and a joyous Christmas and holiday season to all as well. Robin -Original Message- From: Mike B.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws & Speak Dropbox
Hi All, Running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit & Jaws 16. After uninstalling CCleaner Speak Dropbox quit using the Jaws voice to tell me that Dropbox is connecting & is up to date. Also pressing the, Alt, Windows key, + D, keystroke 1 time to hear Dropbox status doesn't work, but, pressing it twice does open the Dropbox menu. The, Alt, Windows key, + M, keystrokes works as well. I do hear sounds for files being downloaded & connecting but, like I said, I'm just not getting Jaws telling me that the Dropbox has been found, it's connecting, & is up to date. All my settings are correct so, can someone how I can get the status keystroke back & how I can get Jaws to audibly report Dropbox status, connecting, up to date, & found the Dropbox icon? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care. Mike FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION! It comes bundled with the software. Go Dodgers!

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS with Dropbox
The only way I've been using DB is whit shared folders. I open DB through the programs menu. When DB is launched, it goes to my systems tray. From there I open DB as I said, find the folder I want, copy files into it and close. Try looking for the program through the all programs menu, rather than your possibly broken shortcut. DB seems to be working fine for me using W7 and JAWS 17.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS with Dropbox
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 it. Now go to your Dropbox folder. You can create folders and copy files into it and they are uploaded to Dropbox. On 2/24/2016 6:23 PM, wayne smith wrote: > I am still not clear about what this means.
