Re: [JAWS-Users] Talking Digital TV
I've been going through a lot of email, so I can't remember if it was you, who said he gets accessibility with his satellite disk? If that is a viable option, first I want to try it, and second, it could be a prod to get cable interested. What about the "Access To Information" act? Do you think we could use it in some kind of suit? If we got ACB and NFB and may be WGBH of Boston, who produces description Video Services all in on such a mition, do you think we could accomplish anything?

Good luck in your effort in trying to contact your cable company, to tell them about this technology regarding accessability too on screen menus. Unfortunately, I have tried for many years either through letters and phone calls, to talk too them about this problem that we as blind people have, and have met with more resistants then I care too tell you about. Even our local chapter of the a c b here in New your city, wrote them a letter asking them if they could send a representative from the company, too discuss this on going problem, and as yet, we never hurd from them at all. I even took it upon myself at one point, too write a letter, as well as making a few phone calls, and have had no success for my efforts. This is what happens, when companies put profit, before customers concerns, and feel that they are so large, that they don't have too account too anyone for there actions. - Original Message - From: "Victoria Vaughan" To: Sent: Monday, September 07, 2009 2:39 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Talking Digital TV Here here!

Re: [JAWS-Users] I have a question
Hi Fina, on the FS website, there is a tutorial on using Jaws with the internet called "surfs up"(not sure if that should be one word and if there is an apostrophe for the word surf's". I also don't remember if it is a text file or a podcast? I could do with a refresher myself, and so might hunt it down too smile. Hope that helps.

If your JFw runs in the system tray press JawsKeyPlusJ followed by h, then k. If not: Alt plus tab to the Jaws Window, alt plus h followed by K. From there you select the book you want in the tree view (expanding the books with the right arrow or collapsing them with left arrow). press enter on the book you choose and then F6. This brings you to a web page containing lists of keystrokes which you can copy to your clipboard. You press F6 again to get back to the tree view where you can pick another book of commands to print out. You can append subsequent lists to the clipboard with WindowsKeyPlusC and build yourself quite a nice reference sheet of keyboard commands.

[JAWS-Users] Problem With Outlook 2007 and JAWS 11
Hello everyone, I am having a bit of a problem with Outlook 2007 and JAWS. Over the last couple of days, whenever I arrow up and down through the Outlook message list, JAWS says "Not selected" before reading the rest of the message info. This did not happen by default when I installed Outlook 2007 earlier this week (I had to reinstall Windows) and I'm wondering if this is a JAWS problem or if I made some change (the only things I've done is to turn off all of the reading and navigation paigns, etc.) that may have prompted this?
