Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and amazon

[Don Marang]

The only complaint about the main site I have is, I wish they would have
the product titles in search results as a HTML heading.  Making each
title as a heading level 4, would not need to change the look of the
page, but would make it easier to go through results.  I have requested
this.  Since they already provide a segregated, limited view through a
separate accessible site, they probably do not think this is a valid
request.

Re: [JAWS-Users] importing csv address book woes continues

[Steve]

Leonard,

I'm pasting this because it is comprehensive, and you don't say whether you 
are using WLM for Xp, which I assume because of your reference to Outlook 
EXpress, or Vista/Win 7.



Export Contacts from Windows Live Mail for Windows XP

list of 7 items
1. Select the Contacts button in the left bottom section or press 
CTRL+SHIFT+C to bring up the Windows Live Contacts window.

2. File-> Export-> Comma Separated Values (.CSV)
3. Select a location to store the export in and name you export file.
This can be on your Desktop folder for easy access. You can remove the file 
once everything has been imported into Outlook.

4. Press the Next button.
5. Select all the fields (make sure you scroll down to see all fields).
6. Press Finish. You'll get notified when the export is done.
7. Close the remaining open dialogs and continue to the
Import Contacts
section.
list end

Export Contact from Windows Live Mail for Windows Vista and Windows 7

list of 7 items
1. Select the Contacts button in the left bottom section or press CTRL+3 to 
bring up the Windows Live Contacts window.

2. From the Home tab, click on the Export button and select;
Comma separated values (.CSV)
3. Select a location to store the export in and name you export file.
This can be on your Desktop folder for easy access. You can remove the file 
once everything has been imported into Outlook.

4. Press the Next button.
5. Select all the fields (make sure you scroll down to see all fields).
6. Press Finish.
7. Continue to the
Import Contacts in Outlook
section.
list end

Windows Live Mail 2011 - Export Contacts
In WLM 2011, the Export button can be found on the
Home tab of the Contacts section.

Import Contacts in Outlook

list of 10 items
1. Start the Import and Export Wizard in Outlook;
list of 2 items nesting level 1
. Outlook 2007 and previous
File-> Import and Export.
. Outlook 2010
File-> Open-> Import
list end nesting level 1
2. Select; Import from another program or file.
3. Press the Next button.
4. Select; Comma Separated Values (Windows).
5. Press the Next button.
6. Browse to the location of the previously exported csv-file.
7. Press the Next button.
8. Select your Contacts folder as the destination folder.
9. Press the Next button.
10. Press Finish.

Re: [JAWS-Users] DecTalk USB not working in Vista

[Arianna]

I had a very weird experience with the DecTalk USB as the default profile. 
All of a sudden, out of the blue, the voice came from my speakers as high 
pitched and as fast as possible.  No matter what I tried, I could not get 
the DecTalk to function, so I uninstalled JAWS 11 totally and then 
reinstalled it.


I had DecTalk working beautifully and guess what?  The voice did the same 
thing, coming through my speakers as rapidly and as high pitched as 
possible.


Now I have removed the DecTalk and am using SAPI DecTalk, so I'll see how 
things go from here.  I like the external synthesizer because I do not like 
JAWS coming from the same speakers music or movies come from.


Has anyone experienced anything like this?  If so, were you able to get 
DecTalk USB to function without this nonsense happening?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] duxbury translation tables in jaws



Hi folks



Somewhat of a technical thing I have been wondering about over the 
years.




According to  the about dialog of jaws, t seems as if the program uses
conversion tables from Duxbury to do the translations in braille for 
use

with a braille display.



My question is now whether one could then add other tables from 
Duxbury for
use with a braille display?  Are they the normal tables found in 
Duxbury or

are they modified braille tables?



In my situation I would not mind adding the Afrikaans braille table to 
the

list in Jaws.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] problem with Windows media player



Hi everyone,
Am hoping someone can help with this. I finally upgraded to a new PC
with Windows 7 running JAWS 12, WMP 12 and the latest version of
Winamp. I attempted to set Winamp as my default player for all audio
files and playing CDs. This seemed to work initially but now Windows
Media has begun grabbing files and I have been unable to find the
preferences dialog to change it. At this poingt I not only can't play
anything in Winamp but JAWS seems to lose focus whenever I try to go
into the file dialog and I can't access the preferences either. I'm
pretty sure I'm still on the classic skin but it's almost acting like
that is messed up as well. Any thoughts on fixing this much
appreciated. I'm not very comfortable with WMPand am new to current
JAWS as well as Windows 7, so the more detailed the instructions the
better. Would also like to know how MSSE compares to the paid
antivirus programs like Nod32 and whether anybody is using the user
account control without going insane. All help appreciated.

Susan

No. the accessible site is a streamlined version, just the basics. Actually
not even that. It really is nice to use if you have already used the regular
site and know what you want, just going back to Amazon to order. The regular
site has much more detail, plus all the consumer reviews, which are helpful.
Only takes a while to learn how to get around in regular site.

Hi group:

I finally got brave enough to try Amazon and I love it.

Most of you probablly already use the Accessible Amazon site.
I just wanted to let the rest of you know how easy the site is to use.
Just go to amazon.com, down arrow one time to the accessible link and press
enter.
You can save this site in your favorite list and you can put a shortcut key
for it on your desktop if you want to for easy access.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and amazon

[Lisa belville]

it doesn't.  You don't see any of the recommendations based on your shopping 
preferences, product reviews, list mainia stuff or what other people 
searched for and eventually bought.  Plus you can't download MP3 music from 
the access site.


if I'm in a hurry and know I'll be distracted, I'll use the access site for 
a quick search and price check.  Otherwise, the main site works well for me 
because I just avoid the other lists and recommendations.

I don't know now, but at one time I know it didn't.  Furthermore, even now,

[JAWS-Users] problem with Windows media player

[Susan Wojtecki]

Hi everyone,
Am hoping someone can help with this. I finally upgraded to a new PC
with Windows 7 running JAWS 12, WMP 12 and the latest version of
Winamp. I attempted to set Winamp as my default player for all audio
files and playing CDs. This seemed to work initially but now Windows
Media has begun grabbing files and I have been unable to find the
preferences dialog to change it. At this poingt I not only can't play
anything in Winamp but JAWS seems to lose focus whenever I try to go
into the file dialog and I can't access the preferences either. I'm
pretty sure I'm still on the classic skin but it's almost acting like
that is messed up as well. Any thoughts on fixing this much
appreciated. I'm not very comfortable with WMPand am new to current
JAWS as well as Windows 7, so the more detailed the instructions the
better. Would also like to know how MSSE compares to the paid
antivirus programs like Nod32 and whether anybody is using the user
account control without going insane. All help appreciated.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How to selectively stop auto spell check on an outgoing email in MS Outlook 2007?

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

I don't think you can completely bypass the spell check.  But when it finds
the first error, I just press escape which brings up a message saying that
the spell check has been stopped and do  you want to send anyway? Press
enter for yes and the message is on its way.  This works in Outlook 2000 and
2010, so it should also be the same in Outlook 2007.

Hello crew,

I have purposely set my outlook 07 settings so that when I hit ctrl enter to
send an email I've written it automatically starts spell check. I want this
to remain this way.

however sometimes I use the English kbd to type out emails in my language to
my peeps back in India and you can imagine every single word in the email is
prompted by the spell check.

is there any quick way to selectively disable auto spell check for any email
sending out without having to change my default auto spell check setting via
the Outlook menu?

KBD shortcuts or hot key combos?

Yes, Jaws and Amazon.com/access are a great marriage.  Just be sure not to
get suckered into paying standard shipping when your total order is $25. or
more.  They make you arrow right to find the super saver shipping option.
But it is well worth finding.  They tried to, by default, sucker me into
$20. standard shipping for $60 worth of stuff.  I caught it and made sure it
was changed to super saver.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and amazon

[Don Marang]

I have been doing almost all of my Christmas shopping from the main
Amazon site for years.  I spent a lot of money on Monday.  I had almost
all gifts wrapped since I only have one finger left on my right hand.  I
am now trying to figure out what to send my parents and sisters, who are
scattered all over the country. 

I love the Prime membership free two day shipping!  However, so far I
have not paid for the service.  In November I joined the Mom's club,
designed for new Mothers.  It does not provide all of the benefits such
as free video streaming.  It does provide the free 2 day shipping and a
30% discount on diapers and large discounts in their baby section.  My
youngest is 19, so I don't need these products, so I may not be able to
keep extending the initial 3 month membership by spending at least $25 a
month on baby supplies. 

The Mom's club sign up is at

[JAWS-Users] duxbury translation tables in jaws

[André van Deventer]

Hi folks

 

Somewhat of a technical thing I have been wondering about over the years.

 

According to  the about dialog of jaws, t seems as if the program uses
conversion tables from Duxbury to do the translations in braille for use
with a braille display.

 

My question is now whether one could then add other tables from Duxbury for
use with a braille display?  Are they the normal tables found in Duxbury or
are they modified braille tables?

 

In my situation I would not mind adding the Afrikaans braille table to the
list in Jaws.

 

Regards

 

Andre

[JAWS-Users] Jaws and amazon

[jim]

Hi group:

I finally got brave enough to try Amazon and I love it.

Most of you probablly already use the Accessible Amazon site.
I just wanted to let the rest of you know how easy the site is to use.
Just go to amazon.com, down arrow one time to the accessible link and press 
enter.
You can save this site in your favorite list and you can put a shortcut key for 
it on your desktop if you want to for easy access.
Amazon makes Christmas shopping much easier and more fun.
I just bought my wife a pearl set and gave them to her today, she loves the set.
Happy shopping...buy lots of gifts...lollol...ahahahah...lol
One question I have, luckily I selected and copied this message.
For when I went to press f-7 to spell check my email in WLM, WLM froze and 
restarted making me loose the message.
This must have something to do with the update, this has always worked fine.
Any suggestions.
Using the latest Jaws 13 on a windows 7 32 bit machine.
Thanks, god bless, and merry Christmas...Jim

Re: [JAWS-Users] Need hotkey to adjust voice

First I would tried Control Alt key and Page Down to slow down Desk Top then
go to Jaws then Voices and change the rate then select ok.  This is what I
would do.

Jerry,
I assume you want to use mail merge to insert data from a database
If you want just a page of all the same labels, you can use Alt M, then l 
to

get into the labels dialogue box and check the appropriate radio button.
If you want to mail merge, here is an outline for that.

Mail Merge in Word 2007
Choose Alt M for the mailings tab.
Then tab to mail merge.

Start Mail merge
Choose labels

Alt M
Select Recipients
Choose the  source for the information.
Under that option you need to find the file that contains your records. 
In

my situation, that is an Access database.

Then go back to the menu and find the option for, Edit recipient list
Here I tab down to the filter link.  When I enter on that I get a table 
like
I was used to using inWord 2000, where I can enter the record number and 
the

range that I want to print.

Alt M
Go to the, Insert merge fields group box
As name, address, city, state and zip are selected, they appear in the 
main

document below.
User needs to use enter to move down a line, add the comma after the city
and the space before the zip
No key command, so use Alt M, and tab through to the insert merge fields
group box each time.

Then go to the Update labels button
Hit enter and all the labels fill in.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to Select or Change Options On Google Search SettingsPage

[Gerald Levy]

Turning off browser mode seems to work with JAWS 9, although it is still 
somewhat awkward to navigate the Search Settings page this way. But at least 
I can adjust the sliders and activate the Save button.  Thanks.

Hi Gerald,
with browser mode switched off (insert + z), you should be able to tab to 
both the check box for opening results in a new window and the save button. 
You can interact with them using the normal keystrokes (spacebar for the 
check box, and spacebar or enter for the button).
I've checked this is the case using Jaws 10 and IE8, but don't have Jaws 9 
to check there, so I'd be grateful if you could let me know whether the 
above method works with Jaws 9.


David.

This is a handy tip for people who use the same keyword often when searching
with Microsoft Office Outlook 2010's Instant Search feature. Click the
Instant Search field and then find the Options group in the Search Tools tab
(which appears in the Ribbon only when the Instant Search field is active).
Now, click the Recent Searches button and then select the keyword from your
10 most recent keyword searches.

A term borrowed from print media that indicates the portion of the screen
the user sees first. On Web sites, important information should go in this
space, but it's also expensive advertising real estate. In order to be above
the fold, the information should be visible without having to scroll
vertically or horizontally. Since users can have various screen resolutions
that affect whether something is positioned above the fold or not, it is
important to know the resolution used by most visitors to the site.
