Season greeting!

my screen is showing upside down.
I tried to fix it by the keyboard shortcut pressing Ctrl+Alt+the up arrow 
key all at the same time.
However, still its the same. Is there any other solution to correct the 
problem?

Thanks in advance.

It is my understanding, to make the pearl reader a portable, ocr you have to 
use a lap top or some type of note book I was told  pearl reader is compatible 
with mac note book pro.

Hi All:

I would like to know whether Ctrl + Shift + 7 keyboard shortcut is
used with Jaws or any other screen reader in combination with IE7 or
IE8 or any other browser.

I would be grateful if I come to know whether Ctrl + Shift + 0 / 1 / 2
/ 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 are also used as keyboard shortcuts.

Thanks and regards,
Silpa.

I  am not sure I understand exactly what you are attempting to do in your 
situation.  Are you wanting to make backups of essential CDs, such as 
Windows XP?  If so, I think you want a utility that will make an ISO file 
copy of the CD.  It will make an exact image of the CD into one container 
file.  It will even capture the boot information if the disk is bootable. 
It will not directly let you look at individual files without a special 
archive style program.  It will also not work with most copy protected CDs, 
such as games.  An ISO file can be burnt back to a blank disk at any time 
or some programs can be used to mount the file just as if you inserted the 
disk.


There are many utilities to work with ISO files.  My favorite is called 
ISO Recorder.  It provides simple wizard style dialogs to rip (copy from 
disk to file) and burn (copy from file to disk).  It will also work with 
DVD data disks, which can contain 4.7 GB of storage, on Vista and Windows 
7.

Hello, I am new at this so forgive me if it comes off as a stupid 
question! I am trying to put all my programs that are on cd on my 
extneral drive.  Do I need to use nero to do this or can I simplely copy 
all the folders that are on the cd to the drive renameing it with the 
program title?  Someone said something about virtualizing the program 
first. thank you Heather

Don't know if this helps, but it looks like you have to do the following:
1. Unlock the computer by pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE.
2. Type in the logon information of the last logged in user (in this case 
your user name).

3. Click OK.
4. The dialog will disappear and press CTRL+ALT+DELETE again and you will 
log in normally.


Hope this helps,

I hope this helps this is my first attempt at this.

If your settings match the ISP information, contact your ISP to verify that

[Blind-Computing] pearl reader

2010-07-09 Thread ernestquick
The Pearl Reader looks like a white cane when it is folded up.  It is compact 
and portable.  You just unfold it, and it is positioned like a letter C with 
squared off corners when in position.  It plugs into the computer via USB, and 
uses Open Book that way.  Because of the position of the sections of the 
"cane", one can place the document beneath the camera and tell Open Book to 
take a picture and read it.  It has to use Open Book Version 9, which has not 
been released yet but will be soon, hopefully!  It is about $2,200. by the time 
one buys the Pearl plus the Open Book application.  Presently, Freedom 
Scientific is running a promotion where one can upgrade his present OpenBook 
for $150., and purchase the Pearl hardware for about $600.  I think that 
promotion runs through July 15.  It is made for  portability
