Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to Access Web Site Log In Page
Hello Gerald; yes, to be clear, 1, I go to the page you posted, 2, I find the "My Account link", 3, I now press the left mouse button on the Numpad, which is the NumpadSlash. 4, I then press the letter "e", for the first edit field. or, you can press the letter "f", again, to the first edit field, - Original Message - From: "Gerald Levy" To: Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 6:17 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to Access Web Site Log In Page Okay, let's be clear about this. When you say "left click", do you mean that you r pressing the left button on your physical desktop mouse? Are you pressing any other keys before or after you left click on "My Account"? I tried the left click technique again with JAWS 10 and IE 8, but no luck. However, I did discover a work around. On the site map, there is a link to the Account Verification page which contains the user ID and Password fields as well as a field to enter a verification code, which, fortunately, I saved. So as long as I enter this verification code along with my user ID and password, I can access my account information.

Have you tried re-installing or repairing this? What other programs did it come with? I'm assuming Power POint, Xcel, and perhaps Outlook? Also, what O.S. are you running it on.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problems with student word 2007
Thank you for your continued interest; yes all of those programs were included along with the e-mail and a notebook organizer type of program. No, I have not tried to reinstall or remedy at all. Once the word program has opened a word pad file, it works fine. It simply has a long fight before being able to open the word pad file. Frankly, I prefer to have access to the word pad files without interference from word 2007 because it is so much easier for me until I get a better grasp of the 2007 commands; I have not used word for more than ten years and am very rusty. You mention 'default' possibilities; that would be fine by me if I can direct 2007 not to be the default for some time while I am engaged in the learning curve. Melissa, I am eighty years of age, and getting up to speed with 2007 may be a while. It has been my experience that settings often can be fixed to make programs more compatible with Jaws and wonder about any such possibility with 2007. I also mentioned a possibility of finding a tutorial which might help me understand the 'ribbon' and other features. I do have the Reference on 2007 from the Printing House but could appreciate a little more verbiage in its approach. Sorry to have so much to say and ask.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problems with student word 2007
You have my genuine respect for giving it a go sir. I'll be as much help as I can, I am a single mom and full time student going through finals, so please be patient with any time lapses that may occurr. It isn't because I don't want to help. Now, What operating system are you using? I ask because that will tell me where to direct you to find your default programs setting. In XP, I believe it is in the All Programs menu, or it is in the control pannel. I have not used XP for several years, so don't remember where things are exactly. Do a little exploring, and see if you can find it. As far as the ribbons are concerned, they are frustrating for everyone who comes to them from the classic menu style, sighted or not. They are merely icons in a string, so many sighted people are frustrated by them grately. We are at somewhat of an advantage, because at least JAWS tells us what we're looking at, it's not just some abstract picture of say, a pair of binoculars for zooming. They are completely usable though, and many of the old hotkeys are still functional, so finding a list of hotkeys may be of use. I use them frequently, such as control shift P to control and minnipulate my fonts and style.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problems with student word 2007
Yes, Melissa, I have XP as my OS and am using Jaws 11. My CPU is an old HP desk model which has served well for some years and is an old friend. Patience, I have learned that in practicing law for 37 years and in getting old. I will be happy for any help when you are able; of course, I recognize the priority of fun that you will have with finals. I hope I have answered y;our questions and perhaps I shoould simply apply myself more to learning and less to complaining.

I'll be as much help as I can, I am a single mom and full time student going through finals, so please be patient with any time lapses that may occurr. It isn't because I don't want to help. Now, What operating system are you using? I ask because that will tell me where to direct you to find your default programs setting. In XP, I believe it is in the All Programs menu, or it is in the control pannel. I have not used XP for several years, so don't remember where things are exactly. Do a little exploring, and see if you can find it. As far as the ribbons are concerned, they are frustrating for everyone who comes to them from the classic menu style, sighted or not. They are merely icons in a string, so many sighted people are frustrated by them grately. We are at somewhat of an advantage, because at least JAWS tells us what we're looking at, it's not just some abstract picture of say, a pair of binoculars for zooming. They are completely usable though, and many of the old hotkeys are still functional, so finding a list of hotkeys may be of use.

Re: [JAWS-Users] problems with student word 2007
Well, if nothing else you've made me smile. Ok, as I said, the setting should be in the control pannel, which can be found both in the start menu as well as the all-programs menu. Once there you should be able to set WordPad as your default Word-Processor/editor. I am still baffled by Word trying to open your TXT files, but perhaps if your system is quite old and a bit sluggish in general, that may be the Occam's Razor, so to speak. Let me know what you find my friend, and we'll go from there.
