Hi, Some thoughts. 1. Have the user go to the apps menu, diagnostics and refresh accessibility libraries. Reboot the computer. 2. Make sure you have general/other/enable support for UI automation turned on. 3. If the user wants, make sure verbosity/common/activated/read entire dialogs is set to yes. 4. Make sure the window is maximized. You can do that by pressing alt-space then X or just windows-up arrow.

If there is more or some clarification, I will send another post on the topic. This problem is with 9.4 on a 64-bit Windows 7 desktop and the browser being used is the latest Firefox. Window Eyes is not reading the contents of edit boxes and other objects into which one enters text. Also, according to the description, some message boxes and other pop-up items Windows uses to give a user information are not being read. Since I use the same OS, the same version of WE and mostly use Firefox as my browser, I find it interesting that I have not experienced any of this. The person experiencing the problem has been using out of date software across the board, only recently moving from XP and older versions of WE and Firefox, so I am thinking that the problem might be with settings. I have kept up to date, and thus my settings have evolved along with new versions of all of the software. I just don’t know what settings might need changing from the default to fix such problems and was hoping that some list members might have a better idea of what needs to be done in a case where there has been a recent jump of several versions.
