Hi Madison,

I agree with you but, yet disagree!  As I stated earlier, people like 
getting advice / help from others who have experienced the same or similar 
problems.  Too many times doing searches gives you so many options that it 
can leave you with your head spinning!  As for dragging others into help 
related questions, everyone offers their help, noone is dragged in!  As for 
the question I originally posted to the list, this person needed the help & 
I didn't have an answer for them, not ever having experienced this problem 
or similar problems & I didn't have the time to search for it at the moment 
so, I was guilty of using the list to help another!  As it turned out, when 
I had the time I Tandemed up with the person & got the problem resolved. 
Take care.
Mike

  I'm sorry Mike. I guess you're right in this instance. Its just that I 
find
  it a bit selfish that very often listers offer to help their friends then
  come post questions on these lists essentially turning everyone into their
  tech support department when he list never offered to help that unknown
  family member. Its one thing when a lister nees help, but its an entirely
  different thing when list members volunteer this list to fix their 
friend's
  computers. Also, even though your friend is not very knowledgeable about
  computers or Google searches, you are, so if you offer to help it isn't 
fair
  we all get dragged into this. I do agree with you on your point that if 
all
  knew how to use Google we would not need these less. These lists seem to 
be
  essential in the blind community because for the vast number of questions,
  they can indeed be answered very quickly with a Google search. It appears
  that blind folk like the notion of being a part of a group, so they spend
  los of time on these lists. I signed up thinking I was an average computer
  user and hoping to learn some new stuff, but it appears I'm answering more
  questions than increasing my computer related knowledge. Just my thoughts.

Hi Madison,

That is not true!  Google is not always someone's friend & in this case not! 
This person doesn't need the added hassle of the extra pressure of trying to 
figure this thing out.  I agree with you that Google has it's place but, 
like most people, this person would rather have people inter-action.  After 
all, if everyone depended on Google, we wouldn't need these lists', would 
we?!  I hope this message doesn't sound harsh, because I don't mean it that

with searching the internet & prefer communicating with others who have 
experience or knowledge of the problems they are having at the moment.  Take 
care.

Re: [Blind-Computing] SelectingContinuous&Non-ContinuousFilesUsingA Mouse

2012-03-09 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi Scorpio,

Let me see if I understand you correctly.  Are you saying, for selecting 
continuous files;

1. Highlight the first file & press the left moust button 1 time, then  hold 
down the shift key.

2. While keeping the shift key depressed, arrow down to the last file you 
would like selected, do a single left mouse clickk on the last file, & by 
doing single left mouse clicks on the first & last file in the list, all 
files between the first and the last will be highlighted / selected.

Yes, these are personally created files and not system files.  I would like 
to thank you for your patience & understanding.  Hell, if I had known this 
mouse Bulls**t was this much of a pain, I could have hired a tutor for 30 
minutes & been done with this crap 2 days ago!  hahaha hahaha hahaha

In all seriousness, I have learned a great deal from the replies this thread 
generated & truly thank everyone that got involved.  I'm also sure other 
list members learned crap they will never use as well!  hahaha hahaha hahaha

Thanks again, take care.
Mike

SelectingContinuous&Non-ContinuousFilesUsingA Mouse


  Hi Mike,

  This one was a bit perplexing when I thought about it and thinking back to
  my sighted days, in order to select contiguous files, one would single 
click
  on the first file in the list of files, hold down the shift key, then 
click
  on the list file in the list one wants to include in the list of files.
  This will, in turn, select all the files between those two files.
  Additionally, should one wish to select further files to include in the
  list, one simply need hold down the control key, and continue selecting 
the
  files in the noncontiguous format until all files are selected.

  I should mention that I am assuming that the files being selected are user
  created files like MP3 or word processing documents and not system files.
  I'm sure I don't have to tell you that the process for selecting system
  files are far more different than selecting user created files as system
  files are normally hidden, and so will not show up in a regular window, 
and
  so folder options must be changed in order to reflect the showing of those
  files.

  Either way, the continuous and non-contiguous format of selecting files 
are
  as I have outlined above.

  Hope this helps you in some way.

  Scorpio

Re: [Blind-Computing] Selecting Continuous &Non-ContinuousFilesUsingA Mouse

2012-03-09 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi Scorpio,

I re-wrote your prior steps to reflect the single clicking. Would you or any 
other list member please review the re-written steps to see if they are 
correct?  Also, if a person wanted to select continuous files, would they 
hold down the shift key, like I do with Jaws, & arrow / scroll down ?

Here are the re-written steps;


For selecting non-continuous files the person has to press and hold down the 
control key, then left click 1 time on each  file they want to select as 
they move down the list.

  Once all the files are selected, they can press the applications key, or
  press the right mouse button 1 time on any of the files, to get the
  context menu, or, if they're copying or moving the files, press the
  keystrokes as needed.

  Hope this helps.

  Scorpio

Thank you very much for taking the time to look at this.  Take care.
Mike

David & Madison have suggested.  Press the F6 key, after you press the F6 
key the URL will be highlighted so, just press control + C to copy the URL, 
& press shift + F6, to take you back to the video screen or, after the file 
starts, press Alt + D & control + C to copy the URL.  After copying the URL

NetApp The Latest To Increase Hard Drive Prices Due To Thailand Floods

Source:
http://www.crn.com/news/storage/232301388/netapp-the-latest-to-increase-hard-drive-prices-due-to-thailand-floods.htm;jsessionid=nwbKTBYOe6xe0ztiPvfYvA**.ecappj02

By
Joseph F. Kovar,
CRN
January 06, 2012 10:28 AM ET

NetApp Thursday became the latest major storage vendor to officially raise
hard drive prices in the wake of the Thailand floods.

NetApp Thursday night
posted a notice on its Web site
saying it is temporarily raising hard drive list prices by between 5 percent
and 15 percent effective Feb. 6.

The move, according to NetApp, was necessary due to increased hard drive
costs in the wake of
severe floods in Thailand
that wiped out
nearly one-third
of the world's hard drive manufacturing capacity.

NetApp's planned price increases follows similar moves by rivals EMC (NYSE:
EMC)
and Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:
HPQ),
both of which said in December that they plan to raise hard drive prices by
up to 15 percent, according to multiple news reports,
including Computer Business Review.

In its statement, NetApp said it empathizes with Thailand citizens who are
trying to recover from the floods and that it is working with hard drive
suppliers
to secure the drives to meet its needs.

"However, similar to other vendors we have seen a negative impact to our
drive costs. While we initially absorbed the cost increases to protect our
partners
and customers, we are no longer able to do so. Effective February 6, 2012,
we will be temporarily increasing HDD list prices 5 -15% over current
pricing.
We will continue to monitor the situation as it evolves and will provide
updates as appropriate. Thank you for your continued partnership," NetApp
said
in the statement.

HP declined to offer specific information on its hard drive pricing plans.
However, in a statement e-mailed to CRN, HP wrote, "Given the uncertainty
associated
with the situation, HP expects there to be continued headwinds related to

Re: [Blind-Computing] Installing MSE

HI Pete,

What I would do is, download MSSE but do not install / run it, this way MSSE 
will be ready to install after uninstalling McAfee.  To uninstall McAfee, 
make sure it is turned off / exited.  Whaat you can do is go into, msconfig, 
control + tab to start-up, uncheck the McAfee  box & reboot the computer. 
This way you know that McAfee didn't start with Windows.  Check the System 
Tray to be sure.  Now you can uninstall it, do a disk clean-up, & defrag, 
reboot & install MSSE.  Take care.

Re: [Blind-Computing] mal whare bytes problem

2012-02-21 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi Angelina,

The error message you are referring to only comes up when Jaws is running. 
I had someone sighted check this message on 3 computers running 3 different 
operating systems & it only came up when Jaws was running on all 3 
computers.  Freedom Scientific could not re-create this problem because I 
only get this error message  running the Pro / pay for version, & Fs only 
runs the free version.  So, whenever this message comes up , just press the 
spacebar on the okay button to get rid of it.  In closing, just close the 
message, it is only a conflict between Jaws & Malware Bytes. & does not pose 
any problems.  Hope this helps, somewhat anyways.  Take care.

Re: [Blind-Computing] about outlook express for windows 7

2012-02-19 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi David,

There is a program that allows you to use identities in Windows Mail.  The 
information is below.

http://www.oehelp.com/WMIDs/Default.aspx


WMIDs (Windows Mail Identities) is a program that replaces the Outlook 
Express Identities feature, which was removed when Outlook Express was 
renamed and
updated to Windows Mail in Windows Vista. The program allows Windows Mail 
users to have different Identities that impersonate users, while being 
logged
onto the same user space in Vista. This program will only run in Windows 
Vista and is only for Windows Mail.
Such a feature is useful for separating business from personal messages, as 
well as for allowing different individuals to be able to segregate their 
message
store and settings from other users, while being logged on to Vista as a 
single user.

This capability is achieved by allowing each Identity to have its own 
settings and message location. By switching between Identities, the user can 
maintain
segregation of these settings and messages relevant to the particular 
Identity.

The program allows the user to manage various Identities, so that Windows 
Mail settings can be the same or different between Identities. Similarly the 
user
can specify the same or different message store locations on a per Identity 
basis.

If the user runs the program with command line parameters then it will start 
Windows Mail with the designated Identity, allowing the user to create 
shortcuts
to open Windows Mail under each Identity.

You can get the rest of the info about this program from the link above. 
Hope this helps.  Take care.
Mike

  Probably my client of choice would be some sort of collection between

  You can't setup identities in windows mail or in windows live mail 
although
  live mail creates separate inboxes for each email account you configure. 
The
  status line in live mail is something I can't seem to find at all which is
  quite strange.

  Identities are quite easy in outlook express but you can do them in 
outlook

  Some systems have developed problems after enabling windows mail on 7 but

Re: [Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs

2012-02-18 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi Brad,

I just installed Office 2010 so, this is all new to me. See if the below
makes any sense to you.

To specify your own line spacing, type the spacing amount that you want in
the At box. For example, enter 1.25 for an extra quarter line of space
between
lines, or click the up or down arrow to increase or decrease the amount in
half-line increments. When you finish, click OK.
. Press one of the shortcut key combinations:
list of 4 items nesting level 1
Ctrl+l - Single-spacing
Ctrl+5 - 1.5-line spacing
Ctrl+2 - Double-spacing
Ctrl+0(zero) - Add or remove 12 points of space before a paragraph.
list end nesting level 1

Line Spacing in Word 2010
. Choose Paragraph... from the shortcut menu to open the Paragraph dialog
box. On the Indentation and Spacing tab, in the Line Spacing list box,
choose
one of the options:
list of 6 items nesting level 1
Single - Single-line spacing. (Line height automatically adjusts to
accommodate the size of the font and any graphics or formulas in a line.)
1.5 Lines - Line-and-one-half spacing (an extra half-line of space between
lines).
Double - Double-spacing (an extra full line of space between lines).
At Least - At least the spacing that you specify in the At box-the line
won't be shorter than what you specify, but it may be taller because Word
will add
extra spacing for tall characters, big graphics, and superscript or
subscript text.
Exactly - The exact spacing that you specify in the At box. All lines are
exactly the same height, regardless of the size of the characters in the
line;
Word doesn't add extra spacing. Note that some text may be cut off if enough
space is not available.
Multiple - Multiples of single-line spacing, such as triple (3) or quadruple
(4), as specified in the At box.

The information above was copied from;

Hi Michael,

The only way you will get them back into your Outlook Express Inbox, is 
email them to yourself.  At least, that's the only way that I know of.  Take 
care.

[Blind-Computing] New Information On Transporting Office Settings

2012-01-27 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi All,

Out of curiosity I checked the MS Office folder in All Programs & there was 
a save my settings wizard.  I ran a search, and below is what I found.

SUMMARY
This step-by-step guide describes how to back up user settings for an Office 
XP installation to a secure Web site or to a file by using the Save My 
Settings
Wizard.

The Save My Settings Wizard stores information about program options and 
preferences, custom templates and dictionaries, and AutoCorrect lists to a 
secure
location on the Internet or to a file. You can also use the Save My Settings 
Wizard to restore settings to an Office XP installation.
Back Up Office XP Settings
NOTE: When you start the Save My Settings Wizard, you will be prompted to 
quit any Office XP programs that may be running. Quit all Office XP programs 
before
you perform this procedure.

To back up Office XP settings by using the Save My Settings Wizard, follow 
these steps:

list of 5 items
1. Start the Save My Settings Wizard. To do this, click Start, point to 
Programs, point to Microsoft Office Tools, and then click Save My Settings 
Wizard.
2. On the first page of the wizard, click Next.
3. Click the Save the settings from this machine option, and then click 
Next.
4. Click one of the following options:

list of 2 items nesting level 1
• Save the settings to the Web
• Save the settings to a File
list end nesting level 1
NOTE: If you choose the Save the settings to a File option, the settings are 
stored in an Office Profile Settings (OPS) file on your computer's hard disk
when you click Next, and the wizard will finish. If you choose the Save the 
settings to the Web option, you will be prompted to type a Microsoft 
Passport
ID when you click Next.

Click Next.
5. Type your Passport sign-in name and password, and then click OK.

Microsoft stores your settings on the Web for three months. If you want to 
receive e-mail notification before the expiration date, type your e-mail 
address,
and then click Next. If you do not want to receive this notification, leave 
the E-mail address box blank, and then click Finish.
list end

Back to the top

REFERENCES
For additional information about the Save My Settings Wizard, please see the 
following Microsoft Office XP Resource Kit Web site:
http://www.microsoft.com/Office/ORK/xp/FIVE/wgtb05.htm

Hope this helps others besides me.  Take care.

[Blind-Computing] Transporting Office Settings

2012-01-27 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi All,

I just installed Office 2002 onto a new computer running XP Pro & Jaws13. 
Is there a way to transport the settings from another computer running 
Office 2002, to this 1?  Mainly I would like to transfer the Word settings 
from the other computer to this one so I don't have to configure all that 
crap again!  LOL  LOL

All help will be greatly appreciated & graciously accepted.  Thanks much, 
take care.

[Blind-Computing] Update On Converting .EML files to .TXT

2012-01-16 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi All,

  Well, I finally got the 1 folder with its sub-folders converted from 
approximately85% .EML files to roughly90% .TXT files.  The size of the 
original folder before the conversion was 9.40GB, & after converting & 
placing the new files in a new folder with the same folder structure, 1.75 
GB!  I used a program called Potal Mail Converter from;

www.coolutils.com

I used the trial version so, I couldn't do anything with the attachments. 
The Pro version has several options for dealing with attachments.  I thought 
I would give y'all an update on the conversion process.  This Total Mail 
Converter program is a kick in the a**!  Take care.

  Start with player off, then press rewind+sleep+tone down then press and 
hold
  the power button for about 2 seconds then release the power button. This
  will bring up a menu then use either the rewind or fast forward arrow to 
get
  to battery then press play. That takes you to statistics then press fast
  forward arrow once and that goes to initiate battery recharge. Press play
  here. If you get the battery recharge initiated message go ahead and turn

  It is still called Device Manager, in Windows 7,

  In Windows 7, you can simply type the following in the search box on the

  device manager
  Alternatively,

  What I think Trish is asking for is how to go into the "Device Manager" 
and
  discover exactly what hardware components are configured for her system.
  For example, I can do this by:

  1) Opening the "SETTINGS" item on the main menu and selecting "Control
  Panel"

  2)  Selecting "Device Manager" (or selecting "System" and then finding the
  "Device Manager" tab)

  3)  Once the "Device Manager" is open, browsing (and opening closed
  elements - the component list.

  One needs to be careful not to modify any of those settings once in Device
  Manager unless they are certain of what they are doing, but this isn't
  really very risky since cancelling out is fairly obvious.  This procedure
  gives one an exhaustive list of exactly what his/her PC is comprised of
  concerning hardware.

  Does not Windows 7 provide a "Device Manager" interface; perhaps it isn't
  called that in that OS?

  I followed the steps and I must've not done something right because I do

  see the recycle bin in the sendto option.
  After creating the sendto shortcut, do I just copy and paste the recycle

  I will look at the program you [provided in an earlier message if this

  Three Tricks to Make the Windows "Send To" Feature Even More Useful.

  http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/three-tricks-make-windows-send-featu
  re-even-more-useful.htm

  Updated 19. September 2011 - 6:34 by v.laurie.

  It's been part of Windows for years and may be old hat to some but the 
"Send
  To" function in the right-click context menu doesn't get the use that it
  ought to.  Also, it has some tricks that most people don't know. A 
previous
  tip described a very useful app that adds features to "Send To" but this
  time I will give you three little-known tricks that help make this 
function
  more powerful without requiring the addition of any program.

  How to move a file or folder instead of copying it

  The default action of "Send To" is to copy a file or folder to the target
  destination. To change this so that the file is moved instead of copied,
  hold down the Shift key when you click the desired destination. This works
  when standard folders are the target destination but the special folder 
(My)
  Documents only seems to accept the copy action.

  The copy or move function is especially useful when you have added folders
  of your own to the default list of Send To destinations. How to add 
folders
  was described in a previous tip  and the third tip below gives another
  method.

  How to send a shortcut of a file or folder

  Hold down the keyboard combination Ctrl+Shift and the "Send To" action
  becomes the creation of a shortcut in the destination folder.

  Put SendTo in the "Send To" menu

  Adding the SendTo folder itself to the menu provides a quick way to add a
  shortcut from a desired program or folder to the "Send To" menu. With the
  SendTo folder itself as a destination you can do the tongue-twisting
  operation of sending to "Send To". Here is the procedure to set this up in
  Windows Vista/7:
   1. Open the Start menu and enter "shell:sendto" in the Start search bar
  (without quotes and with a colon but no spaces).
   2. The SendTo folder will open. Note that the folder name is written as 
one
  word.
   3. Go up one level to the parent Windows folder of SendTo with the 
keyboard
  shortcut  Alt+Up Arrow. Alternatively, click "Windows" in the address bar
  breadcrumb list.
   4. Find the folder SendTo in the new window and right-click drag it to 
the
  desktop.
   5. Choose "Create shortcuts here" from the context menu to place a 
shortcut
  on the desktop.
   6. Drag the new shortcut back to the SendTo folder icon in the open 
window
  and move it there.
   7. Close the window.

  The procedure for Windows XP is somewhat different:
   1.SendTo is a Hidden folder in Windows XP. If necessary, change the
  settings to make Hidden folders visible as given at this link.
   2. Open the Start menu and enter "%userprofile%" in the Run line (without
  quotes but with the percent signs).  Alternatively, enter "sendto" in the
  Run line and go up one level to the parent folder.

  Then follow steps 4-7 given for Windows Vista/7.

  Now you will have a quick way to place folders and programs of your choice
  in the list of target destinations in the Send To function.

This is because the tones could help me raise and lower the volume on my

[Blind-Computing] Does Using an SSD Make a Difference?

2011-12-10 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi All,

Below is an article I received from Auslogics that I thought y'all might 
like to read.

Does Using an SSD Make a Difference?

Hi,

Liz Cornwell here. Recently we’ve started receiving a lot of questions about 
SSDs. Does using an SSD make a difference? How to deal with SSDs? Should 
they be defragged? So, as per your request, I’m going to shed some light on 
SSDs in this newsletter.

First of all, I’d like to remind you what SSDs are. Basically, a solid-state 
drive (SSD) is a data storage device, just like your hard drive. Unlike hard 
drives, SSDs use NAND flash memory to store data, which makes them a lot 
faster.

Does using an SSD make a difference?

Absolutely! SSDs are electronic devices and don’t have any mechanical parts. 
This means that there is literally nothing to slow them down. Once you have 
an SSD, you’ll be rid of the worst performance bottleneck. When you install 
an SSD, everything else you did to boost performance will seem 
insignificant. And there is more good news – file fragmentation doesn’t 
affect SSDs because they can grab fragmented files just as quickly as 
non-fragmented files. In addition to that, using an SSD is a lot more 
pleasant than using a hard drive because SSDs are quieter and don’t suffer 
from physical shock as much as HDDs do.

Sounds great, doesn’t it? But there are a few things you need to keep in 
mind when you are using an SSD. The most important thing to remember is that 
SSD flash memory can only endure a certain number of writes. It’s a pretty 
large number, but still. That’s why it’s good to do everything you can to 
reduce the number of writes and thus prolong the lifetime of your SSD.

Should you defragment an SSD?

This is another common question and the answer is “No”. As I said before, 
conventional defragmentation doesn’t improve the performance of an SSD in 
any noticeable ways.

You might argue and say that there are articles recommending to defrag SSDs 
and various software that supports SSD defrag. Well, all I can say is that 
these articles are written by people who choose an insignificant performance 
gain over stability and reliability. Remember I said that you need to reduce 
the number of writes? Well, conventional defrag performs plenty of writes, 
doing your SSD no good. As for the SSD defrag software, reputable programs 
don’t actually attempt to defrag SSDs – all they do is apply file placement 
optimization algorithms.

By the way, even Microsoft recognizes that SSDs don’t need to be defragged. 
If you have a system with an SSD, scheduled defragmentation in Windows 7 is 
disabled by default when the operating system is installed on an SSD from 
scratch.

Re: [Blind-Computing] looking for pdf to word converter

Hi Iqbal,

It's possible that the PDF files you are talking about contain graphics, & 
therefore Jaws won't be able to read them.  This is only a guess without 
having the document to read for myself.  There are other reasons that Jaws 
won't read PDF files, & hopefully others will join this conversation to 
mention other examples .  Take care.

2011-12-05 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi Iqbal,

You need to disable protected view first to get it to work well with Jaws.



 Do the following:



 1. From either your desktop or start menu, press enter on Adobe.  The Adobe 
window is now open, press control + K, to open preferences.  Another way to

get to preferences is after pressing enter on the Adobe shortcut, press Alt 
+ E, for the edit menu, arrow up to preferences, & press enter.



3. When preferences opens you will be in a tree view and should be on the 
General page, if  not arrow up or down until you have General highlighted. 
It

is #4 of 29.  Tab until you find a checkbox called enable protected mode at

[Blind-Computing] Windows7 Pro Equalizer

2011-12-05 Thread Mike & Barbara

Hi All,

I have been trying to adjust the equalizer sliders in Windows7 Pro but, 
after I get the sliders to where I want them, & try to save my settings I 
don't get an apply button.  If I route the Jaws cursor to the PC cursor Jaws 
reads apply not available.  How do I save my settings?  All help will be 
greatly appreciated.  Thanks much, take care.

correctly.  Take care.
