Re: [JAWS-Users] Merging settings
ok, sense no one has answered this. i will at last. you can merge from lower versions to higher, but not the other way around. This is, because the higher version may have a element or function that is not recognized by the lower version. Witch would give you script errors. At 08:33 PM 7/17/2009, you wrote: Hi All, I have never merged settings before. Is it possible to merge settings from a newer version to an older version? I have installed Jaws 7 latest and want to merge the settings from Jaws 8 latest into the earlier version. If this is possible, what are the steps in doing so? I am running XP/SP3 Home. All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook express.
Correct Kimmie. When you use "Restore" from the Recycle Bin, the folders go back exactly where they were before. There are no alternatives. I'd recommend restoring everything, then starting all over again. Somewhere on here, one of our list members sent along a very extensive set of instructions for servicing Outlook Express. I'm not sure, but they might be on the list's home page. John Justice - Original Message - From: "ChB" To: Sent: Monday, July 20, 2009 2:46 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook express.

TAB to the JAWS Key radio buttons and select the key you want to use as the modifier key for the active keyboard layout. Note: MAGic allows you to select which key is used as the MAGic Key. Since JAWS now provides the same flexibility for the JAWS Key, when the two products are used together, it is important that the MAGic Key and the JAWS key are not assigned to the same key.

Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook express.
If you are going that route: If you aren't happy with the results, there is the option to undo your last restore, which does just that and brings you back to where you were before you did the system restore.

Hi Jason, After IE loads, hit control plus i to close the favorites tree view, it's a toggle.

For example, whenever I launch Internet Explorer. Jaws announces "favorites". I don't think I remember it ever doing this before. In addition, when I open a webpage. I usually use insert numpad 3 to read the status line. This lets me know how many items on the page are left to download. However, what Jaws tends to do now, is read out a couple of my favorites. However, if I do in fact want to access my favorites. I still need to use control I to bring up my favorites list. Has anyone else experienced this? I am using XP home, IE7 and Jaws 10. Would upgrading to IE8 be of any help? It is sitting in my system tray. But I have been cautious about installing it.
