Don, Did your steps here, so far they are behaving today, all in the system's tray. - Original Message - From: Don Marang donald.mar...@gmail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 5:25 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] System Tray Items No. sorry if I wrote the directions to imply that. Make a selection for each notification icon. When you hit Tab and it has finished with all the items it has a few buttons and checkboxes and cycles back to the OK button. When you reach this activate it with Space or Enter to close the dialog. You will then need to hit Tab a few times more to reach the OK button for the Task bar Properties dialog. Use Space or Enter to close that dialog. *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ On 1/18/2012 5:31 PM, Trish wrote: Don, Are you saying to tab to ok button after making a selection for each item? - Original Message - From: Don Marang donald.mar...@gmail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 4:22 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] System Tray Items You need to select which icons you want to show in the Notification Area. 1. Press the Windows Key, followed by the Escape key. This places focus on the Start button. 2. Press Alt + Enter to bring up the Taskbar Properties dialog. 3. Hit Tab until you hear Notification Area. If there is a checkbox for Always show all Notifications and icons on the Task bar uncheck it. 4. Hit Tab again to get to the Customize button. Press Space to activate. 5. Hit Tab to get to the list of Notification items. Each has a combo box on the right side. Simply use the up and down arrows for the different hide and show options. If you want it to always show up when pressing JAWS + F11, select Show icon and notification. 6. Press Tab to get to the next item. When done, continue to press Tab to the OK button. Again, press Tab to the OK button. Now the notifications should work as expected! Additionally, you should not be bothered by notifications you do not want. Note, this does not disable or stop them from working. *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ On 1/18/2012 4:37 PM, Trish wrote: yep - Original Message - From: Pam Mahuika pmahu...@xtra.co.nz To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 2:56 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] System Tray Items I have also found that sometimes not all items appear in the system tray and a reboot seems to bring them back, most annoying.

Why do those 6 items like to play hide and seek all the time, some showing up others not? I have to say...this is one case where XP is ruling over Win/7, never had these issues before. I have been going to that notification on the task bar, then doing the applications key to change it again and again... I tried checking the box to show all notifications, I think that was not an improvement. When I tab to the stuff already listed as being in the sys-tray, when I like down arrow, then up arrow back to show up, I hear this item is not active but will be when I reboot*well it doesn't say that reboot part, I just know that's what I do to get them back in their list where they are to be. Is this like one of those win/7 quirks?

[Blind-Computing] Sharing Folders in Drop Box
I did the steps below, it didn't work, wonder why?? Do the following to put a folder with the name of this person you are sharing the folder with in the Dropgbox folder. 1. Open the System Tray using the keystroke, Insert / Jaws key + F11. 2. Arrow down to the Dropbox entry press enter. 3. Press the letter O, to open the Dropbox folder. 4. Now, we need to create a new folder. Press Alt + F, for the file menu, press the letter W, for folder, press the letter F, for new folder. You are now in an edit field. Type in the name of the person that you are sharing this folder with press enter, to close the edit field. You now have a new folder in your Dropbox folder that you will use to share with the other person. 5. While focused on the folder you have just created hit your applications key and arrow to the Drop Box submenu. 6. Right arrow in there and hit enter on share this folder. 7. You will be taken to the Drop Box web page where you enter the email address of the person or persons you want to share your new folder. 8. Hit the space bar on the share folder button and wait for the other person to accept your invitation. **did not do these steps** a quick note. If yu do say put a file in the public folder and send the link something strange may happen when someone goes to download it. Some browsers, and this is directly from the drop box help, may just try to open it. If this does occur just either add ?dl=1 at the end of address that is on the clipboard or tell the person to do that before opening it.

I have 10 other shared folders, so I'm not like a dummy here, just old I guess,lol - Original Message - From: Trish pzoell...@tx.rr.com To: BCL blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2012 12:49 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Sharing Folders in Drop Box I did the steps below, it didn't work, wonder why?? Do the following to put a folder with the name of this person you are sharing the folder with in the Dropgbox folder. 1. Open the System Tray using the keystroke, Insert / Jaws key + F11. 2. Arrow down to the Dropbox entry press enter. 3. Press the letter O, to open the Dropbox folder. 4. Now, we need to create a new folder. Press Alt + F, for the file menu, press the letter W, for folder, press the letter F, for new folder. You are now in an edit field. Type in the name of the person that you are sharing this folder with press enter, to close the edit field. You now have a new folder in your Dropbox folder that you will use to share with the other person. 5. While focused on the folder you have just created hit your applications key and arrow to the Drop Box submenu. 6. Right arrow in there and hit enter on share this folder. 7. You will be taken to the Drop Box web page where you enter the email address of the person or persons you want to share your new folder. 8. Hit the space bar on the share folder button and wait for the other person to accept your invitation. **did not do these steps** a quick note. If yu do say put a file in the public folder and send the link something strange may happen when someone goes to download it. Some browsers, and this is directly from the drop box help, may just try to open it. If this does occur just either add ?dl=1 at the end of address that is on the clipboard or tell the person to do that before opening it.

Make a selection for each notification icon. When you hit Tab and it has finished with all the items it has a few buttons and checkboxes and cycles back to the OK button. When you reach this activate it with Space or Enter to close the dialog. You will then need to hit Tab a few times more to reach the OK button for the Task bar Properties dialog. Use Space or Enter to close that dialog. *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ On 1/18/2012 5:31 PM, Trish wrote: Don, Are you saying to tab to ok button after making a selection for each item? - Original Message - From: Don Marang donald.mar...@gmail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 4:22 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] System Tray Items You need to select which icons you want to show in the Notification Area. 1. Press the Windows Key, followed by the Escape key. This places focus on the Start button. 2. Press Alt + Enter to bring up the Taskbar Properties dialog. 3. Hit Tab until you hear Notification Area. If there is a checkbox for Always show all Notifications and icons on the Task bar uncheck it. 4. Hit Tab again to get to the Customize button. Press Space to activate. 5. Hit Tab to get to the list of Notification items. Each has a combo box on the right side. Simply use the up and down arrows for the different hide and show options. If you want it to always show up when pressing JAWS + F11, select Show icon and notification. 6. Press Tab to get to the next item. When done, continue to press Tab to the OK button. Again, press Tab to the OK button. Now the notifications should work as expected! Additionally, you should not be bothered by notifications you do not want. Note, this does not disable or stop them from working. *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ On 1/18/2012 4:37 PM, Trish wrote: yep - Original Message - From: Pam Mahuika pmahu...@xtra.co.nz To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 2:56 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] System Tray Items I have also found that sometimes not all items appear in the system tray and a reboot seems to bring them back, most annoying.

Why do those 6 items like to play hide and seek all the time, some showing up others not? I have to say...this is one case where XP is ruling over Win/7, never had these issues before. I have been going to that notification on the task bar, then doing the applications key to change it again and again... I tried checking the box to show all notifications, I think that was not an improvement. When I tab to the stuff already listed as being in the sys-tray, when I like down arrow, then up arrow back to show up, I hear this item is not active but will be when I reboot*well it doesn't say that reboot part, I just know that's what I do to get them back in their list where they are to be. Is this like one of those win/7 quirks?
