Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe flash player for 64 bit system with IE9

2011-05-17 Thread Russ Hubley
Hans Pauli,
Thank you for your reply.
I went to this site and found the newest version of Adobe Flash Player. I
found a couple of things that were puzzling.
First, there was a warning about the newest version being a beta version and
caution was recommended for those who wanted to install it.
There was also something about just installing the 32 bit, working just fine
for 64 bit, IE9.
Secondly, it said that if someone wanted to update, they had to remove their
previous version, and would have to do this everytime a newer version came
out.
I wanted to write you again to get your opinions about this.
Thanks much again, there is no real hurry with this for me.
Russ

Hi.

Go to this page: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html

Emne: [JAWS-Users] Adobe flash player for 64 bit system with IE9

Hi everyone,

I wanted to listen to a U Tube video for its music. I received a warning
about the new Adobe flash player. I did further research and found that you
could install the 32 bit on this 64 bit system. I am a little confused.



I wonder if anyone has installed this on their 64 bit operating system with
IE9. If you know anything about this, or have a link, I would sure
appreciate your help.



Thank you,

Russ

[JAWS-Users] Wich jaws version for Old laptop?

2011-05-17 Thread Doris and Chris
we have an old laptop here running win 95 A on a 100 mhz cpu wiht 40 
megs of RAM.


We bought that laptop before i lost my sight and I did use it with 
speech once upon a time. However, I do not remember what jaws version 
I used at the time.


Does anyone know the system requirements of the jaws 3.x generation 
still? I have a hardware synthesizer I can use and the first version 
of jaws I used was 3.0.


I found that jaws 3.7.x worked best with win 9x at the time but am 
wondering if the above laptop would  be good enough to run jaws 3.7U or 3.7.1.


Any recommendation is much appreciated.

Thanks much,

Doris

[JAWS-Users] annoying jaws issue in outlook 2007.

2011-05-17 Thread jim rawls
Hi all, 

I am running jaws 12, latest update, windows 7, home premium, outlook 2007
on a 64 bit machine. This morning, when I try to read a message in outlook,
every message says not selected. I have to hit the space bar to select it to
read it. I never had this happen before. How do I fix jaws so that, when I
focus on a message, it starts to read it automatically? Automatic read is on
by the way. Jim

jaws 3.0 is an option but I'd like to try if a version that already

Re: [JAWS-Users] Adobe flash player for 64 bit system with IE9

2011-05-17 Thread Hans Pauli Sundstein

Hi again.

If all your needs on the internet can be resolved by using the 32 bit 
browser, than it is not necesary to install the 64 bit version.


That is correct, that this pre release which is in beta at the moment, not 
will update automatically, and later updates reqquires, that the previous 
one first are beeing uninstalled manually, so it gives a bit more work to 
do.


Hope you find out, what you're need's precisely are, so you can take the 
right decition.

Hello David and Friends,
I still have my Gateway Windows 98  First Edition set up and loaded with 
JAWS 5.0
I ran JAWS 3.3, and indeed 3.7 was great, 4 was horrible, but 4.5 and 
version 5 was great also!


Never had a problem with any of the JAWS versions except JAWS 4.0,
So even way back then, HJ or Freedom Scientific made mistakes!

Yes, the Windows 98 machine is still working like it did the day I took it 
out of the  carton back in February 1999.


I just fired it up today, because I am going to put Office 2007 on my Dell 
XP-Home, and if I get sick of trying to learn those stupid Ribbons, I can 
kick on my 98 machine and do some work with the Word 2000 that is on the 
machine!
