Re: [JAWS-Users] IE 8 and menu bar problem
Gerald, I suggest you pass your information to tech support at Freedom Scientific. When I contacted them a few months ago, they said Jaws 9 does not support I.E. 8. It's fine to have your anecdotal information, but I don't think you're in a position to make a claim different of that of F.S.

IE 8 will not work with earlier builds of JAWS 9. Maybe the folks who claim that IE 8 doesn't work with JAWS 9 did not have the latest build installed. The only JAWS feature that does not work is read Address Bar (JAWS key-A), which is really no big deal. I have been using JAWS 9 with IE 8 every day for over two years and have yet to encounter any serious compatibility issues. Gerald - Original Message - From: "Norma A.

Re: [JAWS-Users] un able to click on linkes in OE6 with IE 8.
There is no "OE2003". there is an Outlook 2003. Which is it? If it's Outlook Express, from the message list go to the Tools | Options | Read tab control, ctrl+tab, press tab key, come to checkbox "read all messages in plain text" and, if checked, uncheck it by pressing spacebar. If it's not OE6, then change the subject line. - Original Message - From: "Mich" To: "jaws-users-list @jaws-users.com" Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2011 1:16 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] un able to click on linkes in OE2003 with IE 8.

[JAWS-Users] Using JAWS 12 with Word 2003
Hi all. I've read through the JAWS helpful hints for Word, but am using Office two thousand three here on this computer. I work with Office 2003 in some cases. JAWS by default still seems slow in Word 2003, and I haven't tried to customize Word itself. What changes do you folks suggest making in Word2003 with JAWS? Upgrading to the latest version of Word is not an option at the moment-so I need to know what Word-specific as well as any possible JAWS-specific changes you folks recommend if at all possible. Remember it's Word2003 we're talking about. Also, I'm running the latest build of JAWS12.0 here on Windows7 if that helps.

Re: [JAWS-Users] a problem with jaws 12 and outlook 2007.
Garry, look up your settings please and maybe I will find out what my problem is. If I leave jaws set to intermediate it says one read, or two read, etc., but on advanced, it says nothing.

Jim, When I navigate down the folder list, JAWS tells me how many messages are unread and perhaps the total. When I tap the space bar, I usually am put in the list of messages for that folder. If you need, I could lookup my settings. I don't think my usage of Outlook 2010 has anything to do with processing the folders and messages since I have always have been using Outlook for some good long time. Perhaps I used Outlook 2007; history becomes a fog after a while.
