Thanks Victor, No I don't have scripts, didn't know they were really needed. Most things seem to work fairly well but I do notice that arrowing down say in the options can be sluggish, hit the arrow and the selection doesn't change so you hit again and sometimes again and again. Doubt scripts would help that much though.
I seem to have resolved one issue, getting rid of the default to message rather than call when a name is selected. There are some really odd settings though, like setting you to unavailable when inactive for so many minutes or away. My computer sits sometimes for hours unattended on the corner of the kitchen table but I am still willing to accept a call.are enabled in Options on the bottom of the Tools menu. What is odd is that I have selected the keys to use including CTRL-PAUSE to mute the microphone and the Enable The Shortcut Keys is checked and of course must be saved because those selections persist when I close Skype and return. Both computers behave equally badly. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Victor Gouveia" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2008 9:35 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and Skype > Hi Dale, > > Have you enabled the shortcut keys in Skype's preferences? > > You have to do this before you can use those hotkeys to answer and hang up > a > call. > > I'm assuming you have the scripts for Skype, as you mentioned going into > the > keyboard manager to set that up, but just in case you didn't, you should. > > Like I said, go into the preferences, and make sure the hotkey use is on. > I > think it says something like use global hotkeys or something like that. > > > Victor > Co-moderator > Blind Movie Buffs List > Guidedogs List > > > Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: > http://www.jaws-users.com > Visit the Blind Computing home page at: > http://www.blind-computing.com > Address for the list archives: > http://www.mail-archive.com/jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com > To post to this group, send email to > jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject > or body of a blank message to: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Use the following address in order to contact the management team > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the > following address: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Visit the Blind Computing home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To post to this group, send email to jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following address in order to contact the management team [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
