I am new to this conversation but, it sounds like a video issue.
Have you run the we diag reinstall options from the window-eyes apps menu?
Cheers

and you tab to go to the next edit feild if there is more then one. not arrow
up or down.
some of this is because of how web pages are programmed. some forms will only
read what you have typed in them after you turn browse mod back on and tab away

I just hang up. I don't tell them I don't have one, or any of that jazz.
The only time I said anything was when they asked for my husband by name,
and I told them that he was dead. Pam.

Did you do any of the following: restart WE, reboot the computer,
reregister the accessibility libraries from the WE diagnostics menu?

This is a very long video, but well worth the info and
entertainment. I'm passing this along.
If you are concerned about these calls, I urge you to watch this.

Hi and thank you. I thought I had asked all the right questions when I bought
my Zen book. I guess not. So, I'm stuck with narrator until I can get some help

Hi guys and ladies. this is a good listen to someone who definitely

I love that, the computer was serviced by the computer. That should
keep the average human being thinking for about 30 seconds.
Seriously, i've done a bit of research on this. Earlier on the llist,
people had said that the phone calls arrived right when they turned
their pc on, or when they
Hello Everyone:
Both my sister-in-law and brother received phone calls about their computer.
They told the caller that they did not own one. My brother also told them
that he even does not know how to turn one on.
One time when I received such a call, I responded that my computers had just

I wonder if anyone has ever talked to one of those people who do this.
They sound like they're in a big room full of other people doing similar
things. I wonder who is the mastermind behind this if they're all
together.. Someone has to pay for their headsets, internet, working
space, etc.
Not true. None of this has to do with persons who use adaptive technology.
I have blind and sighted friends and family who have received such calls.
By the way I did use the site to setup robocall forwarding to the service
and I smile everytime my phone just rings one time!

No, they happen to everybody: even sighted people. Pam.

I think it's probably just a coincidence that you are not getting them now.
They seem to come in spirts. You get a lot, then you don't get them for a
while, then you get them again for a while. Pam.

Unfortunately, key describer doesn't describe all the keys; just the main
keys. I found that out with this Lenovo laptop. Pam.

I think that the calls being discussed here are the calls purporting to come
from Microsoft, not Talks.
These so-called Microsoft Technical Department calls have been happening for
a number of years now.
If, indeed, you are now getting calls purporting to be from Talks then that
is a new scam.
A lot of my sighted friends complain about this as well, so I don't think there
is a reason to speculate that it is coming from any of our blind lists. Our
local consumer reporter on TV had a segment on the news recently about this
warning consumers to be aware of this scam.

Wel here is my thought,
I got a few of these calls and I just figured it out the other day. The
caller said he was calling from talks tech support and my computer called
them. Well I think since the merge of g I squared and f v o there has been
a breech of information in theprocess and this
Hi Jo and All,
I also have an Asus laptop. I was very surprised to discover the lack of the
keys you mention. I have set my caps lock key to act as the insert key. The
page-up, page-down, and other functions have to be performed using the
function key combined with the control and shift keys.
Hi Dave:
These calls have nothing to do with your system.
They pick random phonenumbers and they call them.
I used to get quite a few calls from them, but not any more.
I am not sure why, but it may have something to do with the last
caller. He had been calling our number for days and we would
If it's a matter of finding the keys on your keyboard, use the Key Describer
which is insert plus 1 or ins-1 and you may be surprised where you find
certain keys. I have a couple of logitek keyboards and the Insert and
delete keys are to the right of F12.

Hi Don,
There are several web sites which contain family info. Most all are
accessible but the layouts are somewhat different. I find the list links,
