make sure the screen is maximized. if your using windows 7 or 8, you can, function key plus up arrow, or, you can alt+spacebar then the letter x, or, up arrow enter on maximize. if you hear maximized is unavailable, then something else needs to be considered.

Try closing Outlook and reopen it and if that doesn't help try a reboot. This generally fixes the problem for me.

I have always set my JAWS in Outlook (which is where I get my email) to read messages automatically when I open them. It's always worked, until today. Now I have to manually get it to read the message. I did check my settings in JAWS, and read messages automatically is definitely checked. Any ideas about what the problem might be, or what I can do about it?
