Re: [JAWS-Users] is information mb ram accessible using jaws
A quick way to get this info. hold down your windows key and the pause key at same time and let go. The pause key is the last key on right of the pack of three keys above the num pad. This will bring up the system properties. now just route jaws to pc and arrow down to read ram and a lot more info.

[JAWS-Users] Repeated Messages and the jaws 10 update
It appears that since the latest update Jaws is often reading things more than once...for example in Windows mail, Jaws will say "15 messages 10 unread," over and over, two or three times consecutively. Or in writing a message and tabbing through the to, cc, and bcc fields it will read who the message is to in all 3 fields even when the cc, and bcc are blank it is reading the to field information in those empty fields. Using Windows Vista and Jaws 10.0.1139 Another example is that when I just went in to get the version number from the About box, Jaws read the bottom line of this box more than once...is this a setting or a bug?

[JAWS-Users] Repeating Words and Characters
After installing the new Jaws 10 upgrade I am having a problem reading email messages and documents. I am using Vista and Office 2007 and when I try and read a message in Outlook or a document in Word using the control right or left arrow each word is repeated twice. I also get double characters when just using the left and right arrow. I went to the Jaws manage applications and unchecked Outlook 2007 and Word 2007 and the problem was corrected. But when I rebooted the problem came back and those items were still unchecked. I don't have this problem using Windows Mail or Word Pad, just Office 2007 applications. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Repeating Words and Characters
Hello Denny, As you know the "manage application settings" dialog is for letting a user use customized settings made either through the Configuration Manager or by a script. When you remove the checkmark then JAWS uses the default settings rather than the customized settings. If JAWS worked when you removed the checkmark then that would indicate that JAWS is having a problem with the custom settings. There is also a remove choice in the "Manage application settings" dialog. Use the tab key to move to it. You might consider removing the customized settings for Outlook 2007 and for Word 2007 to see if the problem gets resolved when you reboot. If not then check in the "Manage applications settings" dialog again to make sure the entries were removed. If removing the checkmark worked until you rebooted the system then I think removing the entries might well work for you. Take care. This list box is a directory of applications in which the default configuration values were changed using either Configuration Manager or a script. A check box appears before each modified application. If the check box is checked, JAWS uses the customized settings. If the check box is unchecked, JAWS will not use the customized settings.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Repeating Words and Characters
Hello again Denny, I am not sure if what I mentioned in the last message will work. It might be that using the remove function from the "Manage applications settings" dialog will just remove the entries from the list. I don't know if JAWS will stop using the custom settings when you reboot. You might consider removing entries for Outlook and Word 2007 in the "my settings" folder. You can open that folder by navigating to the JAWS 10 program group and opening the "explore JAWS" menu. Choose the "explore my settings" and you can find any customized configurations or scripts in that folder. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] C Cleaner
It's always a good idea to upgrade to the latest version of a utility like CCleaner, because it may contain enhancements that improve its performance.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
What program are you having trouble with? If the Applications Context Sen To submenu does not already contain an option for desktop (create shortcut), there is no easy way to add it. Instead, you can use the alternate method to create a desktop icon for the program in question. Press Win key-M to launch the deskttop, then hit F5. Then hit the Applications key, arrow down to New submenu and select Shortcut. Either type in the address patth to the program if you know it (not likely), or use the browse option to build the pathway to the program. Use the right arrow to open each branch of the path and left arrow to close it. Use first letter navigation to select an item from each list of folders and files. This may take some trial and error, but you should be able to locate the program you want to create a desktop icon for.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
Hi Gerald & RJ, When she presses enter on the "Send To" selection under Applications menu there are no choices for Desktop create shortcut or Mail Recipient. We are trying to find out how to add these 2 choices to the "Send To" submenu. I just found out before typing this reply that she doesn't have a Microsoft Office/Word program on her computer. Could this be the reason that these 2 choices are not included in the "Send To" submenu? As far as what program, with any program that she presses the application key and presses enter on "Send To" these 2 choices are not there. Thanks a lot for your patience with us on trying to resolve this problem. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
Hello Mike, The "mail recipient" menu item should have been added by default to the SendTo menu in XP. You might check to see if it is in the SendTo folder under "default user" or another account on the system and just copy it from the folder under the other user account to the folder in your friend's user account. Navigate into "documents and settings" on the local drive and open a different user account. Press "S" until you find the SendTo folder and press enter to open it. Find the "mail recipient" choice if available and copy it to the clipboard. You can then go back to the user account where the "mail recipient" menu choice was missing and open it. Open the SendTo folder and paste the file from the clipboard. To add "desktop" and "mail recipient" to the SendTo Menu you can do the following 1. Press Windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box. 2. Type "Shell:SendTo" (without the quotes) and press the enter key. 3. Make sure that nothing is selected. Bring up the "file" menu and go into the "new" submenu. Use down arrow to the "shortcut" choice and press enter key. . 4. Use tab key to move to the "browse" button and press spacebar. In the tree structure that appears use up arrow to the top and you should find "desktop." Use tab key to the "OK button and press enter key. 5. Use tab key to the "next" button and press enter. 6. Name the new item with the name you want to have used for the item in the SendTo menu, use tab key to move to the "finish" button and press enter key. A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on the Send To menu. If you can not copy the "mail recipient" choice from any other user account then you can create the menu choice as follows: 1. use windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box. 2. Type in "Shell:SendTo" without the quotes and then press enter key. 3. Go into the File menu and then into the "new" submenu and use down arrow to the "text document" choice. Press enter key on that choice. 4. Rename the text file to Mail Recipient.MAPIMail 5. Answer "yes" when you are told that changing a file extension might make the file unusable . After renaming the file the .MAPIMail extension might be hidden but the "Mail recipient" entry should now be in the SendTo menu. Again, if you can find the "mail recipient" file in another user's "SendTo" folder, copying and pasting it would probably be faster. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
hello; When you point to Send To on the File menu, or you right-click a file and then point to Send To, the Mail Recipient command may be missing. This behavior can occur if the "Mail Recipient.MAPIMail" file is missing from the SendTo folder. For Microsoft Outlook Express 5.0 and Microsoft Outlook Express 6.0, follow these steps. When the .MAPIMail file does not exist in the Disk:/Documents and Settings/username/SendTo folder, the Mail Recipient command is not shown when you point to Send To on the File menu. 1. Start-menu, type r=Run, type: regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\sendmail.dll and then press OK. 2. Type the following command to reregister, and then click OK: regsvr32 %windir%\system32\sendmail.dll hope this helps your friend. - Original Message - From: "Brian Lee" To: Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 5:55 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To Hello Mike, The "mail recipient" menu item should have been added by default to the SendTo menu in XP.

[JAWS-Users] Problem Updating JAWS
Hi all, obviously, I have JAWS update working now, but it took some creativity. I would like to describe my steps, and have someone tell me, if they can, why I had the problems I did. I like to troubleshoot in case this comes up in the future. Anyway, I used the update feature on JAWS. I received an error message just like everyone else. As suggested, I went to FS website to do a download of the 32-bit version. It said there was a version of JAWS on my hard drive and that I must delete it. Well, I deleted the JAWS 10 on my computer -- yes, a mistake on my part. Then I got out my JAWS 9 and 10 CDs to try and load JAWS and nothing happened. I thought JAWS was always supposed to load from the CD -- yes, I had the correct CD. Anyway, I then loaded Narrator, went to the FS website and downloaded current JAWS. I just tried it, my CD drive is working. My question is, why wasn't I able to load either JAWS 9 or 10 from my CD? Sorry for the long post!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
Hi Brian & David, We would like to thank you both for your excellent yet easy to follow instructions on this issue. We did find both Desktop "create shortcut" & Mail Recipient in the Send To subfolder in the Default folder in Documents & Settings on the "C" Drive. I had her copy the "Mail Recipient" choice and we then pasted it into the Send To folder in her name "Janet" folder. Being that the Desktop create shortcut choice is also in the Default/Send To folder, can we copy it and paste it like we did with the Mail Recipient choice? I hope that I didn't just confuse the hell out of all of you with what I just typed, because it certainly confused the hell out of me. Again, Brian & David thankyou very much for the easy to read directions. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To
Hello Mike, Copying the desktop (as shortcut) choice from a different user's SendTo folder and pasting it in the SendTo folder of the user's account where you want it should work. Otherwise, I am quite sure that when you use the regsvr32 sendmail.dll command to register the MAPIMail DLL that the "desktop (as shortcut) will also be restored. Also, in my last message I mentioned about adding "desktop" as a location in the SendTo menu. When you do it using the method I mentioned, you can name the shortcut "desktop (as shortcut)" (without the quotes) if you want to. However, when you browse to the desktop choice in the tree structure you are choosing it as the destination for the shortcut and when you send a file using that choice in the SendTo menu, the item will go to the desktop. Take care.

We did find both Desktop "create shortcut" & Mail Recipient in the Send To subfolder in the Default folder in Documents & Settings on the "C" Drive. I had her copy the "Mail Recipient" choice and we then pasted it into the Send To folder in her name "Janet" folder. Being that the Desktop create shortcut choice is also in the Default/Send To folder, can we copy it and paste it like we did with the Mail Recipient choice? I hope that I didn't just confuse the hell out of all of you with what I just typed, because it certainly confused the hell out of me. Again, Brian & David thankyou very much for the easy to read directions. Take care. Mike - Original Message - From: "Brian Lee" To: Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 2:55 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Adding to Send To Hello Mike, The "mail recipient" menu item should have been added by default to the SendTo menu in XP. You might check to see if it is in the SendTo folder under "default user" or another account on the system and just copy it from the folder under the other user account to the folder in your friend's user account. Navigate into "documents and settings" on the local drive and open a different user account. Press "S" until you find the SendTo folder and press enter to open it. Find the "mail recipient" choice if available and copy it to the clipboard. You can then go back to the user account where the "mail recipient" menu choice was missing and open it. Open the SendTo folder and paste the file from the clipboard. To add "desktop" and "mail recipient" to the SendTo Menu you can do the following 1. Press Windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box. 2. Type "Shell:SendTo" (without the quotes) and press the enter key. 3. Make sure that nothing is selected. Bring up the "file" menu and go into the "new" submenu. Use down arrow to the "shortcut" choice and press enter key. . 4. Use tab key to move to the "browse" button and press spacebar. In the tree structure that appears use up arrow to the top and you should find "desktop." Use tab key to the "OK button and press enter key. 5. Use tab key to the "next" button and press enter. 6. Name the new item with the name you want to have used for the item in the SendTo menu, use tab key to move to the "finish" button and press enter key. A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on the Send To menu. If you can not copy the "mail recipient" choice from any other user account then you can create the menu choice as follows: 1. use windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box. 2. Type in "Shell:SendTo" without the quotes and then press enter key. 3. Go into the File menu and then into the "new" submenu and use down arrow to the "text document" choice. Press enter key on that choice. 4. Rename the text file to Mail Recipient.MAPIMail 5. Answer "yes" when you are told that changing a file extension might make the file unusable . After renaming the file the .MAPIMail extension might be hidden but the "Mail recipient" entry should now be in the SendTo menu. Again, if you can find the "mail recipient" file in another user's "SendTo" folder, copying and pasting it would probably be faster. Take care.
