Re: [Blind-Computing] Large icons?
Hi If the mail client you want is not available in the weather program you do have one other alternative. You can create a weather sig and copy and paste it in to your E-Mail. To do this, use jaws key plus f 11. Arrow to the weather icon and tab to right click. Press enter. Now, down arrow to copy sig to clip board and press enter. Next press escape to close weather sig. You can then paste the weather and joke in your E-mail. Personally, I enjoy the weather icon in the system tray. It is a quick way to check the temperature. I hope this helps.

[Blind-Computing] trying to remove the google tool bar
Hi, everyone, I've been trying to remove the google tool bar but with no luck. I went to the control panel and went to the add and remove programs menu. Then when I arrowed down to the google tool bar, I couldn't get rid of it. I got a message that said "manager dialog" or something like that. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm even being asked to send an error report but I don't want to keep doing that. Is there a way to disable the tool bar so I can remove it more easily? Any help with this would be very much appreciated. Many thanks in advance. Rosemarie For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

On top of the unit is the earphone jack into which you plug the included earbuds. The front panel has 5 discrete buttons arranged in a vertical column. From top to bottom, the buttons are skip forward, play/pause/power, skip backward, volume up and volume down. Pressing and holding the second button from the top for 5 seconds turns the unit on, and pressing and holding it again for 5 seconds turns it off. That's all there is to it. The bottom of the unit has a USB connector that plugs directly into a USB port, although a separate USB cable is also included. You just plug it into your PC and copy and paste the MP3 files you want to download. Just install the included AAA battery and you're good to go. The sound quality is surprisingly good, at least using a better pair of earbuds than the included ones. There is absolutely no learning curve, and no sighted assistance is required to use it. The included software, which I have not tried yet, is fully JAWS accessible. With 2gb of memory, it can hold up to 1,000 songs. This is probably the best blind accessible MP3 deal ever. It is still available from J&R for $10 with free shipping, but they probably won't last much longer at that price. They make wonderful stocking stuffers. The hardest part of using this gizmo is getting it out of the plastic blister pack which requires a heavy duty scissors to cut open. http://www.jr.com/coby/pe/CBY_MP2002G/ Gerald For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [Blind-Computing] putting Bible on $10 MP3 Player
Hi Lou, Was just thinking, can you get a copy of the Bible on CD? I purchased my audio Bible on CD years ago and then ripped it to my computer. Yes, it does take some time, but it was well worth it. I just copy the MP3's that I want to listen to, when I'm done with that, I delete those and then copy the next ones onto my MP3 player. However, giving the size of the Bible, I'm not sure the whole thing would fit on a 2gb drive. It may, I've just never tried it.

On top of the unit is the earphone jack into which you plug the included earbuds. The front panel has 5 discrete buttons arranged in a vertical column. From top to bottom, the buttons are skip forward, play/pause/power, skip backward, volume up and volume down. Pressing and holding the second button from the top for 5 seconds turns the unit on, and pressing and holding it again for 5 seconds turns it off. That's all there is to it.

You just plug it into your PC and copy and paste the MP3 files you want to download. Just install the included AAA battery and you're good to go. The sound quality is surprisingly good, at least using a better pair of earbuds than the included ones. There is absolutely no learning curve, and no sighted assistance is required to use it. The included software, which I have not tried yet, is fully JAWS accessible. With 2gb of memory, it can hold up to 1,000 songs. This is probably the best blind accessible MP3 deal ever. It is still available from J&R for $10 with free shipping, but they probably won't last much longer at that price. They make wonderful stocking stuffers.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Large icons?
Hi blindguy, I downloaded and installed the software from: http://www.weathersig.com Then a person needs to set it up by locating ones local weather station, if you want metric measurements or not, and more. The easiest way to do this is to write click on the weather icon in the system tray. There is an entire menu that appears. Next I edited the cookies.txt file to remove all the offensive jokes. After that it works great. Personally, I would love to see more people using the program. It would be fun to see the weather around the world.

The keys are smaller than that of a laptop but think they have models closer to the laptop style. you can of course install jfw or window eyes whichever you prefer. You can even get a USB keyboard for it. I have a friend who has one that rolls up even. If you have any more questions feel free to email me off list at mcare...@optonline.net.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Laptops verses notebooks
Hello Ken. a netbook is a perfect thing for what you want. It can still be purchased with windows xp pre installed which is a big plus. They usually come with a 1 gig or bigger processor and one gig of ram. it can usually be updated also. The keys are smaller than that of a laptop but think they have models closer to the laptop style. you can of course install jfw or window eyes whichever you prefer. You can even get a USB keyboard for it. I have a friend who has one that rolls up even. If you have any more questions feel free to email me off list at mcare...@optonline.net. It is my other email address. I would also recommend that you go into a store and look at netbooks to get a better feel. You can even start up narrator like I did and get some kind of a better feel for it. -- From: "DoubleLegal" Sent: Tuesday, December 01, 2009 12:21 PM To: "Blind Computer Users" Subject: [Blind-Computing] Laptops versis notebooks Hello everyone, My wife and I really need to get something we can use on the road.

I have had no luck in figuring out to get help from creative labs and don't know where to look for this in knowledge base. The headset won't work one foot away from the unit. They sound awesome and I would love to be able to use them wirelessly.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Wow! $10 MP3 Player Really Is Accessible
Not true. I just checked the J&R web site, and the Coby MP200 is still available for $9.99 with free shipping. I have been using mine for two days now and am very satisfied with it. But don't wait too long, because at this price they probably will sell out soon. I have seen a few other good MP3 player deals like the 4gb Centon Movex at Newegg.com for $12.99, but they all seem to have display screens which make them inaccessible. http://www.jr.com/coby/pe/CBY_MP2002G/ Gerald - Original Message - From: "Linda Parent" To: Sent: Tuesday, December 01, 2009 1:44 AM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Wow! $10 MP3 Player Really Is Accessible Hi, This item is sold out and they are not getting any more of them.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Google is really getting to me!!!!
There is no longer a link for Preferences on Google. Instead it is called Search Settings. The page that opens is easy to navigate by headings. I usually just go to the heading for Number of results. I like 50 results since I don't like having to going to lots of pages and getting my bearings each time. I also like each result to open in a new window which is the next topic in that heading. Be sure to save your settings. For some reason these settings become erased now and then and I have to go back to reset them. Hope this helps.
