Edge

2017-03-11 Thread Ivan Cribb via Talk
Every time I go on to the internet,Edge keeps coming up and renders access
impossible. Can I delete the wretched program or is there some other means
of blocking it? I am running Windows 10 anniversary addition and I think
Window-Eyes 9.5.

Hello all,

I use Window-Eyes 9.5.4 with WLM without too much trouble except that I 
can't get the spell check to work. No matter what I do, it still says 
"disabled" and I can't find a way to enable it. Any suggesttions? My other 
problem is that sometimes, and for no apparent reason, accelerator 
keystrokes like control+shift+v for moving a file temporarily don't work.

Re: A time to have another look at Google Chrome

2017-03-11 Thread Bernie Perella via Talk
Hi Vaughan,  Several months ago, I had become so discussed with IE 11 
and WE that I also gave Chrome a look.  IE 11 just kept crashing with WE 
and on many sites it just didn't read info in fields that needed input. 
So, Because I was also on the market for a new phone and was giving 
Android phones real consideration, I tried Chrome on my toshiba Laptop. 
Well, after just a couple of hours, I got the hang of it and quickly 
realized that mahy of the IE keyboard shortcuts were the same, and so I 
felt quite comfortable in a short time.  I have not gone back to IE.  I 
should also tell you that I have used the Chase bank site to pay credit 
cards and Chrome did very well.  HOwever, for some unknown reason, Chase 
feels as though they must continue to change there webbsite and in doing 
so, they have it a bit more difficult to use.  But, I did manage to get 
the job done.  By the way, I have procured a new Android phone and 
within just a few hours I was very comfortable  with the Talkback 
screenreader that comes with Android which supports a full touch 
interface.  I have had it only a couple of weeks but I think I have 
nastered much of it.  So, I suggest you stick with Chrome because it is 
much more stable with WE than is IE 11.

Hi all.

The current discussion regarding instability between Window-Eyes and
Internet Explorer prompted me to take another look at Google's Chrome
browser.

The last time I did this was at least six months ago, and I was not then
prepared to become a convert.

Now: i'm having strong new impressions which encourage me to stay with
Chrome for more than half an hour.

I've not yet taken it to a truly challenging site - looking at the Mosen
Consulting site at present.

I plan shortly to do some banking, newspaper reading and possibly other
stuff.

Worth a look if people have not yet done so.

Re: program that will allow you to restore your volume configurations

2017-03-11 Thread Larry Higgins via Talk
Hey Tom, sorry I didn't respond sooner. Your reply got lost until now 
I'm afraid,  .


I will do a bit of experimentation with your suggestions as soon as 
either I have the time or the guts, depending on which I have the most 
of .


I really don't understand why the monitor's output audio device would 
react so negatively to muting anyway, and who knows, it might not ever 
happen that way again. Maybe I'll have my sighted daughter over here to 
give me some assistance in figuring this out. But it can't hurt I'm sure 
to play around a bit either, at least I don't think I can get 
irretrievably lost. It might not happen with two good eyes, but I might 
get stuck otherwise. Do I sound irresolute enough?


Oh well Tom, I'll letcha know what happens.

Thank you so much,

Larry

Larry,

In your case there is a solution. Set another synthesizer to use your
onboard card and check the check box: Use this synthesizer as the backup
synthesizer. If you have speech going out your monitor and mute it,
reload Window-Eyes and hold down the left Shift key while doing so. You
have to be quick on the draw with this, or you can reboot and hold down
that key. It will tell Window-Eyes to use your backup synth. It will
also turn apps off.
So you have to remember to turn them back on, or, get things
straightened out and then reload Window-Eyes with your usual default
settings.

Otherwise, most laptops or desktop keyboards have volume or mute
controls on them today. Some are on the F-keys and you have to know how
to toggle them between F-keys and shortcut keys. For example, on my
Microsoft Natural keyboard I have what you would think were 13 F-keys.
that thirteenth one is the toggle key. But I know most aren't this simple.

Hth,
Tom

Dennis, I'm actually hoping that someone can provide an affirmative
answer to your question due to an issue I ran into the other day.

My sound card is an on board Realtek on a Dell machine, but my hi def
monitor has an output device that WE will use, but it seems that if I go
to mute the thing that I lose speak altogether, and have to grope and
hope in relocating my settings for my default card if I have need to
return to my default card.

I just thought it would be convenient to go this rout whenever I might
wish to record using stereo mix so that I wouldn't be recording WE
output at the same time.

I guess this wouldn't be a problem as long as I can remember not to ever
mute the thing, but if either I accidentally do mute the card, or if
some other unknown issue should crop up, I would like to have a quick
and sure solution toward regaining speech.

So, if anybody has a possible solution to this one, at least two of us
would definitely appreciate it.

Thanks,

A time to have another look at Google Chrome

2017-03-11 Thread Vaughan Dodd via Talk

Hi all.

The current discussion regarding instability between Window-Eyes and 
Internet Explorer prompted me to take another look at Google's Chrome 
browser.


The last time I did this was at least six months ago, and I was not then 
prepared to become a convert.


Now: i'm having strong new impressions which encourage me to stay with 
Chrome for more than half an hour.


I've not yet taken it to a truly challenging site - looking at the Mosen 
Consulting site at present.


I plan shortly to do some banking, newspaper reading and possibly other 
stuff.


Worth a look if people have not yet done so.

Vaughan.

Re: program that will allow you to restore your volume configurations

2017-03-11 Thread Portia Scott via Talk
Yes, you are right, that is a feature of Window-eyes. However, I think this 
only pertains to external sound cards if you unplug them. I do not think this 
would work with external monitors, as I do not have one to Tess with… But maybe 
I am wrong.

Blessed be,

Portia.

Re: program that will allow you to restore your volume configurations

2017-03-11 Thread Tom Kingston via Talk

Larry,

In your case there is a solution. Set another synthesizer to use your 
onboard card and check the check box: Use this synthesizer as the backup 
synthesizer. If you have speech going out your monitor and mute it, 
reload Window-Eyes and hold down the left Shift key while doing so. You 
have to be quick on the draw with this, or you can reboot and hold down 
that key. It will tell Window-Eyes to use your backup synth. It will 
also turn apps off.
So you have to remember to turn them back on, or, get things 
straightened out and then reload Window-Eyes with your usual default 
settings.


Otherwise, most laptops or desktop keyboards have volume or mute 
controls on them today. Some are on the F-keys and you have to know how 
to toggle them between F-keys and shortcut keys. For example, on my 
Microsoft Natural keyboard I have what you would think were 13 F-keys. 
that thirteenth one is the toggle key. But I know most aren't this simple.


Hth,
Tom

answer to your question due to an issue I ran into the other day.

My sound card is an on board Realtek on a Dell machine, but my hi def
monitor has an output device that WE will use, but it seems that if I go
to mute the thing that I lose speak altogether, and have to grope and
hope in relocating my settings for my default card if I have need to
return to my default card.

I just thought it would be convenient to go this rout whenever I might
wish to record using stereo mix so that I wouldn't be recording WE
output at the same time.

I guess this wouldn't be a problem as long as I can remember not to ever
mute the thing, but if either I accidentally do mute the card, or if
some other unknown issue should crop up, I would like to have a quick
and sure solution toward regaining speech.

So, if anybody has a possible solution to this one, at least two of us
would definitely appreciate it.

Thanks,

Larry

Re: program that will allow you to restore your volume configurations

2017-03-11 Thread David via Talk
Please correct me, should I be wrong. And maybe I do not understand your 
issue totally.


Far as I know, Win-Eyes always will fall back to your default sound 
card. Meaning, if you unplug your USB card, the built-in, onboard card 
will be the one used for output.


Furthermore, a handful of versions back, it occurs to me, that WinEyes 
got a new feature implemented. Whenever you restart the screen reader 
will automatically attempt to unmute your sound card. Have not tested 
it, but that is what I have been under the impression would be the case.


Again, with all chances of being wrong, I will be glad to be corrected 
on this, should anyone have different information on the matter.
