Re: [Blind-Computing] NVDA not saying attachment
Hi, Mike, I haven't tried to find an attachment in NVDA but I can play with it and see what gives. Hope this helps a little bit.

For example; When I am arrowing through my In Box Jaws tells me attachment if the message has an attachment, and NVDA doesn't. Does anyone know of a way to make NVDA speak when there is an attachment? All help will be gratefully accepted. Take care.

Re: [Blind-Computing] why am I getting prompted for a password for thispersonalityz?
Hi, Randy, I know what you mean about your head starting to split because that's how I'm feeling about windows messenger. I'm so tired of it coming up every time I try to do email messages, go on the internet or even just go on the desktop. I wish I was able to help you with eudora but I haven't used that program before. One of the reasons I uninstalled thunderbird was it kept asking me for my password--plus it was more complicated than I thought it would be.

Hi, Randy, Glad you're getting the hang of using eudora. Wish I could say I'm doing well in trying to get rid of windows messenger. I'm still practically tearing out my hair with that program.

Re: [Blind-Computing] I'm very fed up with this thunderbirdversion 3
Hello, Yvonn, When you type in your password, it says star star star. That's so nobody can get a hold of it and try to hack your computer. When I first set up my account, I didn't put the password in a folder of outlook express. I just remembered it. It's actually the password for your email address. If you forgot your password, you could call your provider and have them set you up with a new one. You could also have a sighted friend help you set it up to. Hope this helps some.

Re: [Blind-Computing] setting outlook express to plain text format
Hi, Chris, I tried that setting but the messages didn't read out automatically. The problem I'm having is that when I first load outlook express, NVDA will read a line or two and then it stops talking. I thought maybe setting OE to plain text format that would solve the problem but I don't think it will make a difference.

It's called cdex. all you do is put your CD in, start CDEX, it goes out to an internet site and gets all the information about the CD including Artist, Track Titles, year, etc. Then you just hit either F8 to rip it in .wav files to your computer, or F9 to rip them as .mp3 files. It puts the CD in your My Music folder under your My Documents folder. I love it! It's so easy.

[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 JR 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/ No virus found in this incoming message.

[Blind-Computing] downloading the kitchens inc games

Re: [Blind-Computing] Fw: External Hard Drive
Hi, George. Yes, all the Circuit City stores are closed now. Maybe Best Buys might sell external hard drives too but I don't know for sure. I have a nephew who runs a computer shop and I could ask him how much those drives run for as far as price. I don't know enough about that where I could give correct information.

It all depends how much you are going to put on it. It has an USB cable and AC adapter. I haven't put it together yet, but I soon will. The only two things I wonder about is that there doesn't seem to be an on/off switch on it, and it came pre formatted but doesn't say what the format is. I guess I'll have to connect it to find out the format. Also, the instructions that came with it in the box aren't in English. :) Thanks to the list for the discussion about the Windows Backup utility. I didn't know that it existed until I read about it on here. I now have it downloaded an installed.

Hi, Don. Glad you got the new home page working. Sorry the old URL wouldn't delete. Did you try selecting it and then hitting the delete key? That's what you have to do.

Hit enter on it. 3. The first field will show the current home page. Select the address and delete it. Then type the address of the site you want to be your home page. 4.
