[Blind-Computing] List Guidelines Reminder
Welcome to the Blind Computing mailing list. This list has been created for the purpose of discussing any and all aspects of computing with the blind user in mind. List Guidelines: The following are guidelines set forth by the list management team and every member is expected to abide by them. 1. Profanity and ethnic or racial slurs will not be tolerated. 2. Flaming of individuals or groups or organizations of any kind will not be tolerated. 3. Advertising is not permitted. 4. Political or religious inferences or discussions are not permitted. 5. Forwarded messages and attachments are not permitted. If you have an article or message of interest which relates to the nature of this list send it to the list owner and if it is appropriate, it will be posted to the list. Additionally if you want to make an announcement about another list send it to the list owner for consideration. Do not post it to the list before obtaining approval. 6. No off-topic posts! Simply placing off topic in the subject line does not make it all right. Off-topic posts include but are not limited to discussions of Blind advocacy groups, products for the blind that are not computer-related items, Transportation for the blind, and Job opportunities or concerns. If you are not sure whether or not your topic is appropriate contact the list owner for approval before posting. 7. Cross-posting is not permitted, and members should only post in the following manner: Using the TO: field with only one list address. The reason for this is that in cases where people setup their message rules to go by the To: field often times such rules get fowled up and in effect do not work properly. Also cross posting might allow you to reach many lists at the same time but the fact is such a post might not be on topic for each and every list. This practice does nothing ut clutter up such lists with unwanted off topic messages along with annoying the list moderators. 8. On topic posts may include but are not limited to discussions of Screen readers and magnifiers, computer peripherals, (scanners printers Braille devices etc) Computer operation, Computer maintenance and Computer building. 9. Subject lines should be clear and to the point! Subject lines such as I Need help or Does anyone know are not descriptive and might be ignored by the very person who might otherwise have answered your query. Also do not include any member names in the subject line. 10. Keep the message content relative to the topic being discussed! If the conversation starts to drift from the original topic initiate a new conversation message with a new subject line to reflect the new topic. 11. No auto responders are to be used on this list! Those who use auto responders for vacations and so forth must make sure that this list is not included. Any person who sends an auto response message will be removed! 12. The discussion of anything illegal is absolutely forbidden, along with flirting or other such inappropriate activities. this is not a high tech swap shop or anything of that nature at all. This means that goods and or services will not be bought or sold using this forum. No message headers please! Nobody wants to read an irrelevant message before reading your post. If you want to plug your business church or whatever do it somewhere else not on this list! If you want to include contact information and a tag line at the bottom of your messages feel free to do so but do not make another message out of it. Remember that there are people of different walks of life origin age groups and levels of computer experience on the list. Individuals with more knowledge and experience should be patient with those who are trying to become more proficient. If you have comments, questions or concerns about how the list is being run do not post them to the list contact the list management team. It is not the place for any individual list member to admonish another member for an improper post let the management Team do their job. Hopefully everyone will benefit from this list and it will allow all of us to be more comfortable and productive using these machines that help us get thru this thing called life! * By joining this list you accept the guidelines as outlined above, and agree to abide by them. If you don't agree, then you should unsubscribe.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Easiest way to get music on a psp
Hello Joshua; well; I've never used a PSP gaming system; however if your only wanting to rip a audio cd, using Windows media player, so you can transfer to the PSP system audio player; try the following; 1. Open the start menu, type in some or all of windows media player and press enter. or, you could just go to start menu/all programs and find and enter on windows media player. 2. Place the CD in the drive. 3. The CD will probably start playing, if your using windows media player as your default player. If you want to stop it playing, press ctrl+s. 4. Press alt+i to rip. Ripping will start, and will eject at the end if you've set the option. Note that if when you press alt+i you hear a warning beep, this means that the rip button on the toolbar is not visible. Press windows key+up arrow to maximize the window, and then press alt+i again. - Original Message - From: Joshua Klander joshklan...@gmail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Friday, December 31, 2010 9:02 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Easiest way to get music on a psp I am using Windows 7.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Avast
You might want to consider switching to Microsoft Security Essentials which is totally JAWS accessible and was just selected as the best freeware product of 2010 by the popular Gizmo's Freeware site. I have never used Avast myself, but apparently, Avast has been getting less and less JAWS friendly with each successive release. Why put up with this aggravation when there is a better alternative? Even if they respond to your email complaint, it could take weeks for them to address the JAWS compatibility issue.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Web page to plain tex help please
Hi Niamh; First, never feel like you are asking a stupid question. The only stupid question, is the question that is not asked. This computer crap can drive us all up a wall! LOL Below are a couple of ways of doing what you want, if I'm understanding your question correctly. One thing you can do is to select and copy information from a web site as text only. This use to be the default in earlier versions of JAWS. When on a web page bring up JAWS verbosity with Insert_V and use down arrow to move to the virtual cursor settings choice. Expand the group if it is closed by using right arrow. Use down arrow to move to the choice select and copy full content using on screen highlight. Press the spacebar until JAWS says select and copy using virtual cursor and then press the enter key. When you select the information and copy or append it to the clipboard, the formatting and HTML element information won't be included. Take care. Brian Lee I am working on a sales training manual and find that the following removes html formatting from source material copied from web based resources. 1. Highlight the text/Email you want to copy. 2. Copy it to the windows clipboard with CTRL+C. 3. Return to, or open a new document. 4. If you are copying text into an existing document, When you get to the place you want to insert your copied material press alt+E. Just press Alt + E if you are pasting text into a new document. 5. Up-arrow until you hear Jaws say paste special 6. Press enter and up-arrow until you hear Jaws say paste as unformatted text and press enter. This will remove all of the HTML formatting from your copied material and insert it into your document. Be advised that your cursor will be at the bottom of the inserted material and you will need to use the appropriate reading commands to get to the beginning of your text. HTH Larry Stansifer Hope the above steps have helped. Take care.

[Blind-Computing] jaws echo feedback update
hi about a week or two ago [give or take a bit] i wrote to the list referring to an ongoing problem that i have had for several months with no sensible or even logical answer. the problem was as the subject box describes. that was that whenever i chat to anyone on skype they can hear jaws echoing back through the loudspeakers. i am unable to hear theirs. this brought me to thinking that something was not quite right here. so i set about the mammoth task of asking everyone i could think of for any possible solution to what was causing this to happen and how it could be rectified. amongst the people i asked was the r n i b computer volunteer chap and Wally Harding a technition in computing at the r n i b in Peterborough UK. unfortunately with all of these possible people that could shed some light on to the subject sadly no one was able to comply and fulfil my request. i went through the settings in sound manager and could find nothing untoward. i spoke to someone on skype last night and it was decided that between us we would see what the setting were for the both of us. i then discovered one of them was set at 95. much to high i am sure. so it was brought down to 50 percent. this made a huge difference although there was still some more work to do. another problem i had of which i did not mention to the list was that my speech/modulation sounded like i was underwater. nothing like the way i sounded when we first spoke to each other on skype. my learned friend was still able to hear the screen reader over the speakers but it was at a much improved audio level and was hardly hearable. a far cry on previous evenings when the screen reader was louder than me. another suggestion that my learned friend spoke about was moving the microphone from the cack of the computer and place it in the front of the tower casing. oh well nothing to lose here i suppose so with great difficulty i managed to pull the microphone jack plug out of the sound card on the back of the computer and place it at the front. there is a flap which contains 2 u s b sockets and 2 3.5 jack plug sockets. as soon as i spoke i heard the other person say much better. he said i sound just like i did when we first spoke on skype with no harmonic feedback and modulation was perfectly clear and very understandable. not quiet and not loud or over powering.and most importantly no underwater sound effects. i then proceeded to move along the screen using the screen reader and this was much better. i could do with just one more adjustment perhaps but that would only be to change microphones over to a uni directional one. so i am i would say 85 percent of the way to correcting this rather long winded and ongoing problem. but 85 percent from yesterday is much better than no percent or even minus 10 of which i was before yesterday i can live with that. so a small adjustment in sounds and audio devices and moving the microphone from the back to the front of the computer provided the solution to the mystery that no one was able to solve but many thanks to all who did suggest possible things that may help and of course apologized for conducting a biography rather than a quick answer to inform all the list that i am now back up and running thank you Yvonne For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ Send any questions regarding list management to: blind-computing-ow...@jaws-users.com

Well, I feel odd taking credit for another's efforts, so I guess you should thank the W7Starter's list as this is where I learned this after hours of struggling myself.
