Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws accessibility with Google talk
although it may sound I am trying to under-estimate you but trust me, that's not the case at all. when you extracted the scripts, did you copy the scripts themselves or the extracted folder? because, they did work for me for sometime till I upgraded to the latest builds of jaws 12. now the scripts no more work with jaws in the chat window at all, while they still work in the messenger window, telling you who all are online & what are their status messages. I was hoping I would be able to find some way to recreate the jss file for the scripts, so as to be able to modify & add the necessary things in them but unfortunately, jaws has no documentation around retrieving the lost jss files. writing across to some honchos for the same at fs also yielded no positive results for the same. I am sorry, I have no experience with using AIM. have never used it. -- From: "harshil ved" Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2011 10:03 AM To: Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws accessability with google talk Hi Bharat, I did download the scriptsw and pasted it on the enu folder but still it does not help.

[JAWS-Users] jaws 9.0 with Thunderbird and Firefox
I'm helping a friend with getting her computer set up. she has jaws 9.0 on her 2k box. Before anyone suggests upgrading, this is not an option.Her computer won't run anything newer than 2k and jaws 9.0 is the latest jaws version to run on win 2k anyway and she can't afford upgrading jaws either. She is trying to use Thunderbird 3.1 and Firefox 3.6 on her machine. I made sure that she is running the latest jaws 9.0 build available from Fs's website. Are there scripts for Thunderbird that wil work with jaws 9.0? Firefox is working fairly well with jaws 9.0. However, the Firefox scripts are not being called so that some of the Firefox specific keystrokes are not available when running firefox 3.x. I vaguely remember reading some time ago that there was a fix for this by which jaws could be made to load the firefox scripts properly when encoutering a firefox 3.x version. Could someone please refresh my memory on how to do this? Thanks much. Doris For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Thanks for all of this - I now have my emails saying who they are from etc but now although both email accounts are shown, the only way to see all of my messages is to have all inboxes showing because otherwise I don't think read messages show up. I will definitely listen to the MP3's but currently trying to sort out my laptop after a total hard-drive crash. So this bit more info would be highly appreciated : how do I get the two folders to show up one beneath the other with all of the folders within each, inbox, sent items etc. I had the problem like the example you showed where it said columns unavailable.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Issue with IE8 Jaws9 & Windows XP
jaws 9.0 only marginally supports ie 8.0. Make sure you are using the very latest build of jaws 9.0 available for download from fs's website and not the initial relese you got on cd or a subsequent earlier update. If this menu problem only occurs in IE, you may also want to consider using Firefox as an alternative browser. If using jaws 9.0, use Firefox 3.6, which is currently still being maintained and updated. You may also want to download and install the latest jaws 12 build and run it in 40-minute demo mode to see if the problem with ie 8.0 persists when you run the latest version of jaws. jaws 12 should coexist peacefully with your earlier version and be available in demo mode when needed. Make sure you have all the latest updates and patches for Windows installed and that your video card drivers are up to date and that you have your windows color depth and screen resolution set up appropriately. the problem you describe with the menu bar sound a bit like what i have seen in some programs where I needed to define custom background colors to get the menu bar to read but this should not be an issue in Internet Explorer. also, you may want to give nvda a try it is very good for web browsing and a lot of other everyday tasks and a good alternative or backup screenreader especially when you cannot afford running the latest and greatest of the comercial offerings. hth Doris At 03:51 AM 8/28/2011, you wrote: Hello all & thank you very much for taking your time to read this correspondence.
