Hi all listers, i am using the latest version of qwitter 5 and i'm facing a problem. each time i receive a new tweet, it says "about 15 hours ago" though it was received just a minute ago.

Hi All, I now have jaws 12 and13 on my computer. I want 13 to start, not 12. I went into basic options on 12, and unchecked everything in the placed that gives you choices to check or uncheck how jaws starts. When I went to jaws 13, the same boxes that I unchecked in 12, were also unchecked in jaws 13. I rechecked them in 13, and they appear the same in 12 also. How do I keep 12 from starting?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype, JAWS and Audacity
Hi Vicki, it's difficult to work out what the problem is without further details of what settings your friend tried. Both vista and windows 7 have similar dialogs for sound settings. As someone has already said, it depends on the capabilities of the sound chip and its driver, as to whether he can do what he wants to do, but I think there's a fair chance that he can with most laptops. My assumption is that he wants to following set up: 1. The inputs of both audacity and skype are set to "stereo mix" or similar, so that the inputs are the audio which is going to the output device. This means that the inputs pick up jaws directly, rather than through speaker and then mic. 2. The output device is set so that it passes through the mic input, so that the audio going to the output device also includes the mic input. This is set on the levels page of the properties dialog of the output device. Note this assumes the use of a mic with a jack plug, rather than a usb mic. best wishes, David. original message: I have a question regarding JAWS and recording conversations on Skype using Audacity. My friend needs a laptop that will record conversations using the Audacity program which will also pick up, not only the voice of the other person, but JAWS as well. He not only needs JAWS picked up during a recording, but picked up during a conversation with someone else that is not being recorded. Right now he is using a Toshiba laptop with Vista that does just this. There is no problem recording conversations with others and JAWS using Audacity and picking up everything and no problem for the person he is speaking with outside of a recording hearing JAWS clearly while on Skype with him. Because he needs to replace this laptop, he is looking for a laptop that will do the same thing as he is taking a class that needs these functions. He has tried several Toshiba laptops, an Asus and an HP. All use Windows 7. The HP worked just the same as his Vista, however, there were other problems with this laptop and he needed to return it. Toshiba is telling him that there is no problem with their product and that it is a Windows 7 or Skype issue, however, as I explained, it worked fine with the HP which also used Windows 7. He uses the latest version of Skype and he used the version of Audacity which works with Windows 7. Here are my questions. 1. Does anyone use a laptop with Windows 7 that will pick up a recorded conversation, both voices and JAWS using Audacity? A desktop computer is not an option and another recording program is not an option. It must be a laptop with Windows 7 and Audacity. 2. If anyone has used such a computer and found it to be something that they didn't like, was there a setting in Skype, Audacity or Windows 7 that they changed to stop it from occurring. If so, where can that setting be found and can it be easily reversed? 3. If there is a laptop that will work, I need both the brand and model. Thank you.

[JAWS-Users] size of omnipage file with jaws 13
Hi Listers Does anyone know what the size of the omnipage file is that gets downloaded when installing jaws 13. I am asking this because I have a download cap and if I exceed it it becomes quite expensive. If one therefore wants to install jaws 13 on a PC and a laptop it can become a problem. It would have been nice if one could download the omnipage file separately (just as the j13 file) and run it on various platforms according to the number of activations that one has.

That is the OCR piece. When you install JAWS 13, it will look to see if the OCR engine we are providing with this version, is installed. If it has not yet, we look at the User Temporary Folder where will store it in the invent you need to reinstall later, if it is found in one of these locations, the install proceeds without the need to download it. Since this is the first time you have installed JAWS 13, it is having to reach out and download it. The file is about 70 MB.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS Options Tree
Using Excel 2007, I do have that option available. However, mine isn't reading properly. When I tell it to overwrite either for all files or for the specific worksheet, when I go down to the third option to tell it to read either row, column, or both, it keeps saying things like "Off 1 of 4", "off, 2 of 4", "off, 3 of 4", instead of reading the specific option that is selected. I can't get the title column to hold. It does work in Jaws 12, but it won't work in my installation of Jaws 13.

[JAWS-Users] Update on merging over your JFW12 settigns to JFW13 beta
Hello all. Based on my offline communication with FS tech support as well as Eric's post earlier to this list you can try the following. the official word from FS rightfully is to do so at your own risk. So they are not to blame or held accountable if u do this and things act funky. having put FS off the hook here I will share with you that I've done the below steps to quickly move over all my JFW 12 settings to JFW13 with no issues so far. 1. Via the programs list on Windows go to JFW12 or JFW13 and further into the list there containing 'explore my settings', explore program files' and explore shared settings'. 2. On the side an FS bulletin on their website at URL below they say to ensure that the original JFW13 .jss, .jsm and .jsh files are held on to and not replaced by the .jss, .jsm and .jsh files of JFW12. http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_support/BulletinView.asp?QC=1458 3. Well going back to step 1 above, you will find that the only place with all files for a huge list of applications with the above 3 extensions are all only to be found under the folder that comes up when u hit 'explore shared settings'. So don't mess with this at all. 4. So what I did was go to the folder with my JFW12 ENu folder via 'explore my settings' and simply copied it over to totally replace the JFW 13 ENU folder which again u get to via 'explore my settings'. With this process I didn't at all mess with the .jss,.jsm and .jsh files of JFW13 and yet immediately merged my JFW12 settings to JFW13. Give a a shot if you cant stand tedium like me and share your experiences. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] Update on merging over your JFW12 settings to JFW13beta
I believe that is the case. They have rewritten some of the scripts. As an example Microsoft Word I think now interacts with the document model directly and if you have a modified word script from an earlier version in your personal folder you will lose the new functionality or it may not work at all. So they can't give you a merge utility because it would break a lot of stuff.

On the side an FS bulletin on their website at URL below they say to ensure that the original JFW13 .jss, .jsm and .jsh files are held on to and not replaced by the .jss, .jsm and .jsh files of JFW12. http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_support/BulletinView.asp ?QC=1458 3. Well going back to step 1 above, you will find that the only place with all files for a huge list of applications with the above 3 extensions are all only to be found under the folder that comes up when u hit 'explore shared settings'. So don't mess with this at all. 4. So what I did was go to the folder with my JFW12 ENu folder via 'explore my settings' and simply copied it over to totally replace the JFW 13 ENU folder which again u get to via 'explore my settings'. With this process I didn't at all mess with the .jss,.jsm and .jsh files of JFW13 and yet immediately merged my JFW12 settings to JFW13.

Dujari, Please zip up the ENU folder from 12 that you moved to 13 and send it to me. While it might appear to be working for you, I'm guessing that you will in fact, be blocking something in JAWS 13 from working as expected. I can only tell this by looking at the folder.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS Options Tree
Hi You can get around this issue by adding the following line to your Microsoft Excel.jkm or Microsoft Outlook 2000.jkm file in your user settings folder. Control+Alt+v=AdjustJAWSOptions You'll need to edit the existing jkm file in your user settings folder since it cannot be added with the Keyboard Manager. If you do not have a jkm file in your user settings folder, you can create a new one that contains the following. [Common] Control+Alt+v=AdjustJAWSOptions You can assign whatever key you like, but should avoid any key that is used by the application or JAWS, such as JAWSkey+v or control+shift+v. This will bring up the old JAWS options menu where the application specific options can be found. I would only change the options that are specific to the application and not change any of the JAWS options. Something could break since JAWS options are now changed with the Quick Settings key JAWSKey+v.

Hi all, I installed the beta of jaws 13, and had some not pleasant experience. First of all, Windows media player 12 quit working. I'm using Windows 7 home premium. I thought it was of course WMP messing up. So, I figured I better find out how to repair it. On a whim, I went back to jaws 12, and found out that it wouldn't work either. So, I uninstalled jaws beta 13, and... reinstalled jaws 12, and all is fine now, including the fact that WMP12 works again.

Re: [JAWS-Users] winamp with jaws 13
Hello Ming, Please make sure that you are in the right Winamp pane when you're adjusting the volume. The volume up and down keys only work in the Winamp main window. Try control+tab to go around the Winamp panes until you get to the Winamp main window. The easiest way to figure out which is the Winamp main window if Jaws isn't telling you is to try to turn up the volume or turn it down after each press of control+tab. Once you hear that the volume has changed, you know you're in the Winamp main window. Scorpio For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
