Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows Media Player

2010-12-04 Thread Mike Wagoner
The only thing I can suggest is to uninstall and reinstall windows media 
player 11.  It shouldn't rip if the box is unchecked but it may be a 
flaw in the program.

Well I'm guessing that no one can help me.
Sad smile
No matter what I do when I put in a CD it starts ripping.
Yes the box in the ripp tab is unchecked.

Hey Gang,
I'm running XP pack 3, Jaws 10, and Windows Media Player 11.057.
Here is my problem.
Everytime I put in a CD it goes to rip CD automatically.
I made sure the box to automatic rips CD is not check, but it still 
does

this.
How can I stop ripping CD'S, because I don't want to keep on ripping 
CD'S

all the time.'
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows 7 Start Menu

From: "Brandon Misch" the subject.  If you think of windows, that's one way, if you think of Jaws, 
then that's the other approach.  Personally, I have gotten some great 
suggestions that help me with my new computer, windows 7, and Jaws 12.0.

i think he said that because it isn't jaws related but windows related in 
general. I may be wrong wiht that but I think that's where his thinking is 
in regarding the startmenu thread.

In Windows XP and earlier, you could down arrow, or up arrow thru the
start
menu.
In Windows 7, it is my understanding that the search box is at the top 
of

the start menu,
if this is true, why can't I down arrow in the start menu?
It would appear to me that down arrowing would move to the next item in
the
list.

Thanks in advance,

Mike,

The biggest thing you need to know is that the Num lock key acts as 
your

JAWS key.  Also, the Jaws/numlock+8 is your left mouse, and 9 is right
mouse.

I'm sure others will provide additional help.

Some local taxes can be a real trip.  I lived in a small community that 
required a local form and no one there ever  knew how to do it.  They 
said " we just put it in the computer and it does the form".

About three years ago we came close!  That was why I stopped trying to 
make
TaxAct work each year using old scripts.  The program changes every 
year,
but FS has never updated their original scripts.  My wife hates 
computers
and has no patience!  Now we go to H & R Block and the frustration is 
gone!
I just have to forfeit a little of the refund!  At least the household 
is

peaceful!

I ended up scanning in all of the documents this year anyway.  I 
wonder if I
could manage to get all of the needed data off the W2s to directly 
fill out
the forms on the IRS site.  The nice part about H & R Block is they 
also
fill out the PA state and local taxes.  There is no way otherwise to 
fill

out the local taxes electronically.

There is no such thing as importing information if you use IRS forms.
You keep your own records, and start out from scratch each year.
You have to know how to fill out the tax forms on your own, to use 
this

method, or be willing to read enough to learn.

Now whenever I type a punctuation, such as a slash or a number sign,

Perhaps this should be brought to the attention of Freedom Scientific. 
I in fact did state that the languages option was removed since FS 
started to use Windows Installer technology to deploy JAWS, which 
started with JAWS 7.1. It's never been reinstated since.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] am sorry everybody



good morning everybody:
am so  sorry  that i posted an emty message.
so: i'll type it again.
it was about certain point of JAWS installation.
after checked the checkbox of freedomscientific license agreement,
JAWS has two choices of installation type.
first: typical installation.
second: custom installation.
according to the  rules of managing my own settings,  am choosing the
custome as usually.
the problem in this particular point.
while am going to toggle between several features and options,
including browse button if would like to install  JAWS in a diffrent
folder, the most necessary issue doesn't existed
toggle between languages synthesized speach.
it the same eloquencespeach synthesizer, but it only used when 
the

customer speak another language: such as french, jyrmen,spanish,
italian etc.
there is ten languages located in the synthesizer language submenu.
but actually,: i've nevered used one of those.
am only using american english speach synthesizer and that's enough 
for me.

unfortunately: i couldn't remove  another languages wich stored in
location that has been mentioned at the moment.
any suggest for that issue, would be appreciated.
mostafa almahdy
friendly person.

Hello all,
JAWS has a feature to improve support in edit and rich edit controls. 
This
can be found in Configuration Manager, in the text processing 
dialogue. By

default it is unchecked, and I think FS should have this turned on by
default in default.jcf. What do you think? Do check this feature out 
as you

may find that edit controls will be more responsive and accurate.

We now have another nice choice for this.  Jamal Mazrui has developed

and it can also scan image pdf's using Google's Tesseract technology. 
There
is more info about it at the site I have given.  Once downloaded, you 
then
install it, and can read the documentation included.  the program is 
about
24 mB in total.  Some of us will kinow that jamal has also developed

Hi Listers,
I am using a fantastic conversion program which makes those graphical

accurate.  It in ternally does a scan and converts the graphical

to Ascii format readable by Jaws. The fully functional program is 
quite
inexpensive (about thirteen dollars). The free version demonstrates 
its many

> Creating Accessible Forms in MS Word
>
> Introduction
> With the instructions below, you will be able to develop easy-to-use 
> forms. There are several advantages to developing your forms using the 
> Forms tool provided
> by Word:
> List of 4 items
> . You will develop the forms once, but they will be usable over and 
> over again.
> . If you ever need to change/add/remove anything from a form you've 
> already developed, you can make that change in moments without having 
> to re-create the
> whole form.
> . Since the forms will be protected, people filling them out will only 
> be able to type in the appropriate fields, ensuring that the forms 
> will print out
> properly every time.
> . The Add-Help Text that appears each time you tab onto a field makes 
> these forms readily accessible by a blind person using JAWS.
> list end
>
> Set-up
>
> To create a form in Word, you use the Forms toolbar. Since this is not 
> among the standard toolbars visible when you first launch Word, you 
> need to bring
> up the Forms toolbar. To do this go to the View menu on the standard 
> menu bar, then choose the Toolbars submenu, and down arrow to Forms. 
> Press ENTER on
> this item to check it and close the menus.
>
> Laying out the Form Content
>
> Your form may have a lot of text that is not directly related to 
> entering data. This may include instructions on how to fill out the 
> form, headings, disclaimers,
> etc. Type in or copy/paste all of the text that needs to appear on the 
> printed form, formatting it as appropriate. The edit fields that 
> people move to
> in order to fill in data will be put onto the form for you when you 
> use the options on the Forms toolbar. This will ensure that users only 
> type in the
> right places on the form. (The sample below shows the form context 
> without the edit areas and checkboxes.)
>
> Sample form 1
> Personal Contact Information
> First Name: Last Name:
> Street address:
> City: State: Zip:
> Personal Information
> SSN: DOB: Sex: Male Female
> U.S. citizen: Yes No
>
> Creating an Accessible Text Edit field
>
> A form field is the space a person filling out the form uses to type 
> in text or response to a question on the form. Usually, a highlighted 
> area provides
> a visual marker to show where to fill in this text. To create an 
> accessible text edit field, do the following:
> List of 8 items
> 1. Place your cursor at the beginning of the space where you expect a 
> person to start filling in text. This is usually, but not always, just 
> to the right
> of the question on the form.
> 2. Press ALT to move to the menu bar item "File."
> 3. Press CTRL+TAB until you move to the forms toolbar. JAWS will say 
> "Edit box button."
> 4. Press ENTER. An edit box appears at your cursor location. (Mouse 
> users, point and click on the first button of the toolbar.)
> 5. Go back to the forms toolbar and choose the Form Fields Options 
> button. (JAWS says "Properties button.") This brings up a dialog that 
> lets you change
> various aspects of the edit box you just created. For example, you can 
> set default text to appear in a field or you can limit the number of 
> characters
> users can type in the edit field. In fact, if you do this, it 
> guarantees that users won't type more than you need them to type. For 
> example, limit the
> edit field for State to 2 characters so that users can only fill in a 
> two-letter state abbreviation. If your cursor is at the beginning of 
> or in the middle
> of the edit field you can also press your Applications key to open a 
> context menu. Then you can choose Properties from that menu.
> 6. Press ALT+T (or click on it) to activate the Add Help Text button. 
> This brings up a multi page dialog that lets you add a meaningful 
> prompt or tool tip
> for the person filling out the form. You land on the Status Bar page 
> tab.
> 7. Press ALT+T or TAB three times to move to the edit area for adding 
> your own text, the third radio button called "Type Your Own Text." The 
> text you enter
> on here will be visible on the Word status bar and will also be read 
> to a blind person using JAWS. In most cases, simply type in the same 
> question

I have never used open book but I hear from others it works well.  My personal 
experience with Kurzweil is that it does very well.  While nothing is perfect 
version 11.1 is considerably improved over earlier versions.  Either one should 
serve you well.I have used Kurzweil to read mail, instructions from frozen food 
boxes, and hundreds of typed or printed correspondence snail mail with 
relatively good results.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Seeking Tips for Using JAWS with a Braille Display

2008-03-03 Thread Mike Wagoner
Hi,
I can't answer all your questions about Braille displays but I use one 
at work in combination with speech.  I use it primarily to read to 
people on the phone, and input information that needs to be specifically 
entered in to certain boxes on the screen.  It is critical when 
inputting information to place the data in the correct space for the 
computer program to except it as correct.  I occasionally use the 
buttons on the handy-tech star Braille 80 as a mouse click because it is 
much quicker and more convenient.  I don't use it as a separate 
notetaker because for me it is not quick enough to switch modes while 
dealing with the public.  I look at the Braille display as a very 
helpful addition to speech but rarely use it independently.  Hope this 
helps.

Hi all,
I used AVG for a long time on the other computer with much success.  It 
actually removed a virus that Norton would not.  I think Karen somed it up 
well.  It works well for me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] games as application

2007-09-21 Thread Mike Wagoner
In order to run the kitchens inc games you must install winkit first 
then install any other games you have downloaded.  If you install any 
others first, they will not run correctly.  Once you install winkit 
install the other games.  I play the football, baseball, life, Simon, 
and concentration successfully.

[JAWS-Users] control and shift keys problem

2007-10-02 Thread Mike Wagoner
Hi all,
I am using jaws 8.0 at work with windows xp pro and at times the computer 
functions like the control or shift keys or alt key is locked down when they 
haven't been touched.  usually I can ctrl tab to another application and hit 
the keys on the laptop move up and down with the arrow keys and it will 
function normally again until next time.  no rhyme or reason for when it 
happens.  I use jaws 8.0 and xp home at home with no problem.  any ideas?
