Hello Simon,

You can create groups in Windows Contacts.  Bring Windows Contacts into 
focus by choosing it from the tools menu in Windows Mail.


The first thing you need to do is to go under the view menu in Windows 
contacts and press enter on the customize this folder choice.  Move to 
the customize page tab in the dialog box.  In the what kind of folder do 
you want list of choices use up or down arrow keys and choose contacts. 
Use tab to apply button and then OK.
This will bring up the toolbar with the choice for creating a group.  From 
the list of contact names use tab key four times until you hear the 
organize button announced.  Use right arrow key three times to the new 
contact group button and press spacebar.
In the resulting dialog box there are two pages.  Contact group tab and 
group details.  Focus should be in the contact group page.  You can use 
tab key to the controls in this dialog box and use the edit boxes for 
entering names and E-mail addresses of contacts to add to the group, or 
you can use tab key to the add to contact group button and press 
spacebar. You can then use tab or shift+tab to move to the list of 
contacts and use normal Windows selecting keystrokes to select names and 
then use tab to the ad button and press spacebar.  Once names are added 
just leave dialogs by tabbing to the OK button and pressing spacebar.


Take care.

When in the control panel, go to programs and features. now when the 
list comes up. Just arrow to the one you want to remove and hit enter 
on it. it may come up with choices but tabbing through them will let 
you pick what you want to do. if no choice then it will just remove it.
Most of the vista commands are links, because all vista is just one

I can see the advantages of combining the two list, but to be honest, I 
hope that you will keep them separate.


I think that the Jaws Users site should be used only for Jaws related 
questions while the Blind Computing site should be used for helping us 
blind folks with general computer questions.


Just my opinion. Thanks for you and the management team for the fine work.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how to see the titles of a song in Windows mediaplayer

2009-05-16 Thread Brian Lee

Hello Andres,

I do not use classic menus.  You might try turning off the classic menus but 
leaving Windows Media Player in full mode view.  After turning off classic 
menus then try using the info I sent in my previous post.  I have pasted the 
info below.  The list view choice from the now playing menu works for 
playlists, but I am not sure about for a live stream from the Internet. 
Also, the info shown below is for Windows Media Player 11.


Hello Andres,

One way to get a list of songs being played in Windows Media Player is to
turn on the list pane.  When in Windows Media Player use tab key to move
to the Now playing menu button and use enter key or spacebar.  Use down
arrow in the resulting menu to find the choice for showing the list pane and
press enter key.  You can then use tab key to the list of songs being
played.  Use up and down arrow keys through the list.  JAWS will say if the
song that you move on to with the arrow keys is the currently or now playing
song.

Take care.

Greetings all.  I would like to create a backup copy of my C drive and
save it to an external hard drive (preferably a USB-powered portable
hard
drive) so that I would be able to perform a complete system restore in
the event of a catastrophic computer failure.  Can this be accomplished
using the Windows Backup utility that comes with XP Pro?  Or are there
any other free, JAWS-friendly programs that would be better suited for
this purpose?  And are there any tutorials that explain how to perform 
a

complete system backup and restore using one of these programs?  Thanks

He explains step by step how to make a backup and how to restore from 
it.

Exellent job.

Greetings all.  I would like to create a backup copy of my C drive and
save it to an external hard drive (preferably a USB-powered portable
hard
drive) so that I would be able to perform a complete system restore in
the event of a catastrophic computer failure.  Can this be 
accomplished

using the Windows Backup utility that comes with XP Pro?  Or are there
any other free, JAWS-friendly programs that would be better suited for
this purpose?  And are there any tutorials that explain how to perform 
a
complete system backup and restore using one of these programs? 
Thanks

for any advice or suggestions.

Before investing in OCR programs for this rather simple image conversion
job, try out the free program pdf2txt, downloadable from

which is now at version 3.3 and was (and is being) developed by Jamal

Hi all,

We received an attachment in the form of a PDF file from our CPA.  There 
are

no graphics.  It is just a straight letter but, when I try to convert it
with Adobe it says, Alert, Empty document.  Is there something that I 
can
do so Jaws will read this letter?  I also tried to copy it but, when I 
try
to select all I get this message, This is a secure document. Selection 
is
not allowed.  I had my better half look at the attachment and that is 
how I
know that the letter contains only text.  I am running XP/SP3 Home, 
Office

Home 2002, Adobe 9.1,  Jaws 10 latest.  All help will be greatly
appreciated.  Thanks much, take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scroll keystrokes

2009-05-16 Thread Flor Lynch
Hi Mike,

What in particular, or how, do you want to 'scroll'?  Normally, we' just 
read or use the arrow or page movement keys in the thing that needs to be 
scrolled until we get to the point of interest.  I also once or twice had to 
use (hold down) the left-mouse button for an extended period, say, 30 
seconds, and I think one also had to have routed the JAWS cursor to PC in 
that instance.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Scroll keystrokes

2009-05-16 Thread Mike Barbara
Hi Flor,

I use a sound card by Creative Labs, the Sound Blaster Audigy.  It has a 
sound selection page where you can select different ways your sounds will 
come through the speakers.  You can basically make the sounds have more or 
less reverberation.  For example; Ball Park, Cathedral, Living Room, etc. 
On this page you have to route the PC cursor to the Jaws cursor to actually 
read the list.  When you route the Jaws cursor to PC cursor and arrow up  
down you can only arrow up or down 2 or 3 choices and you hear  scroll down 
symbol or scroll up symbol.  My question pertains to when you come across 
the scroll up or down symbol are there keystrokes that will achieve this 
task?  Jaws says scroll up or down symbol but, if you try to arrow where 
jaws says this Jaws just says blank like it is actually reading a symbol and 
not words.  I am truly sorry if my explanation sucks but, I am not very good 
at explaining these things.  I just hope that I haven't totally confused the 
hell out of you or anybody else on the list!  This is probably one of those 
things that there isn't a real answer for but, I will never know unless I 
ask.  Thanks much, take care.
Mike

[JAWS-Users] JAWS Sleep Mode

2009-05-16 Thread Jenny Dawson
Hi Listers

I have downloaded some games from Games for the Blind recently.  When I
first play the games I followed the instructions to silence JAWS. Se Below.
Now when I go into the start menu Jaws won't speak.  It works everywhere
else though.

Can anyone help?

Instructions I followed:
1. Open the JFW Configuration manager: 
Press and hold down the insert key, and press the F2 function key. 
Usually, the Configuration Manager is the first option in the window that
appears. 
Press the enter key on Configuration Manager, and it will open in a new
window. 

2. The Configuration Manager window has a menu bar, and we want to open the
Set Options menu. 
Do this by pressing the alt key and the letter s. 

3. If you press the up arrow key when the Set Options menu opens, you will
find a menu item titled: 
Advanced Options... 
Locate the Advanced Options menu item and press the enter key to open it. 

4. When the Advanced Options window opens, you will find a check box titled:

Sleep Mode Enabled 
Press the space bar to check this box, and press the tab key. 

5. You will now find a check box titled: 
Unload Synthasizer 
Press the space bar to check this box, and you are done. 

Now, just press the enter key to close the Advanced Options window, Press
Control S to save these new settings, and close the Configuration Manager
window by pressing the alt key and the F4 function key. 

Kind regards

Jenny Dawson
