Re: [JAWS-Users] Keyboard navigation on a Flash based website
Well, this probably won't be popular on this list. Jaws doesn't work very well with many flash sites. It's hit or miss. Try using the System Access screen reader. You can run it for free by going to http://www.satogo.com YOu need to enter that link from the run dialog without another screen reader running. Just follow the prompts which will be to press alt-r to run the install program. You should get prompted for that twice. It does a much better job of identifying flash content. If you land on any edit boxes, be advised that it doesn't have "forms mode" like Jaws, it acts as Jaws 11 does if you have it turn forms mode on immediately. When you land in an edit box, any keystroke will be typed there unless you navigate away with an arrow key. Hopefully, the folks at F.S. will improve flash access with Jaws. But, it might be an issue of video hooks, because Win-Eyes has the same degree of difficulty with flash content. System Access doesn't use the video intercepts. Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Keyboard navigation on a Flash based website
Press b for 'button'. that might give you some reference points in the Flash. Also, the Flash has to be written with accessibility in mind for it to be of use to us. - Original Message - From: "Hina Keval" To: Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2010 4:16 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Keyboard navigation on a Flash based website Does anyone know how I can use the keyboard alone to navigate a Flash website (in IE and/or Firefox).

Re: [JAWS-Users] Keyboard navigation on a Flash based website
sorry but for most part we are out of luck and Flash base sites are pretty much inaccessible. there are exceptions of course where sometimes with some tedious navigation of the flash page or the flash window on an otherwise accessible page you can read the buttons titles /labels and understand them as well as click them to activate them. But for most part flash is a deal breaker.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem Reading All Messages in Windows Live Mail
Actually although I am almost converted to Windows Live this does happen to me also although only in the last couple of weeks and I don't think it coincided wit the latest JAWS update. Mandy. From: wild.flower Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2010 8:04 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Problem Reading All Messages in Windows Live Mail I am running Windows 7, 64 bit, and the Latest version of JAWS 11. The problem that I'm having is that I can't read all of my messages in Windows Live Mail. Some messages are read correctly and in their entirety but, some messages don't read anything at all. In order to read these messages I have to hit forward or reply and then read through the message and then just cancel actually sending the message. So, it's not that I can't read the message but, I have to go through these extra steps to read it and it is very unnecessary and annoying. Is any one else having this problem and does anyone know what I might be able to do to fix it. It's confusing to me since it does not do it on all of my messages. Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows mail and jaws hanging in contacts!
Hi Paul, The following text is taken from a jaws guide to windows mail available at: http://bit.ly/9b1QZX Hiding the Preview pane so that Windows Explorer doesn't freeze When Windows Explorer is displaying the Contacts folder, if the Preview pane is shown, then there's a bug in Jaws which causes Windows Explorer to hang/freeze when you move through the contacts in the Folder view. There are two ways of hiding the preview pane. The first is to hide the preview pane and the details pane for all folders: 1. Choose Folder Options on the Tools menu. 2. The Folder Options dialog opens on the General page, and first control is a Tasks group of radio buttons. Select the Use Windows classic folders radio button, and then press Enter to press the default OK button. The second way is to hide the preview pane just for folders which contain contacts: 1. Tab to the Organize button, which is the first control on the toolbar, and press it. 2. The Organize menu opens. Open the Layout sub-menu, and move to Preview Pane. If this is checked, then press Enter which changes it to unchecked and closes the Organise menu. David. original message: Hi all, Has anyone here using Vista with jaws 11 come across a situation where upon entering into the contacts in Windows Mail the program just hangs. I just wondered if anyone had any solutions for this they could share. Many thanks, Paul. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
