Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS on Mac
On my bootcamp set up using jaws and the mac I had that same problem but remapped the keys so the windows and alt will be where they should be. -- Kimsan Song Access Technology Trainer Phone: 1-877-774-7670 www.BlindAccessTraining.com -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Phil Halton Sent: Friday, November 16, 2012 7:36 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS on Mac I'm running Windows7 with jaws 12, 13, 14 on an iMac in bootcamp. It's working just fine. The only problem I encounter is remembering the different keyboard arrangement between the Mac and Windows. The Apple keyboard has the key arrangement (from left to right) , control, option, command , spacebar, command, option, control. Command key maps to the windows key and option maps to the alt key, so the position of the Windows and Alt keys are reversed from what I'm used to on normal windows keyboards.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Chrome; mostly works, But a Combo Box Issue
Actually, I did attempt that, and it seems to make no difference. Though, that wouldn't work so well because I probably have 12 or so playlists to choose from. So, if I'm adding stuff to, say, active rock, that might work… But if I'm adding it to outlaw country, since that's so far down, not going to work. Not sure if I mentioned it, but first letter navigation doesn't work since all of the options start with the word "ad two". So, I just can't just hit P for pop rock or r for regular rock.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Chrome; mostly works, But a Combo Box Issue
Just try it and se if itt works. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Wes Derby Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2012 11:40 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Chrome; mostly works, But a Combo Box Issue Hey, all. Haven't posted in a long time; been finding I get most of my answers by tinkering around, or by posting to Twitter. Anyhow, I have one that's a bit long and has me a little stumped. Hoping someone can help. I am presently running JFW 14, latest build. Normally, I use Internet Explorer or Firefox. However, I have run into a site that only seems to work for me with Google Chrome. However, with that site, I am having a minor issue. Anyone who knows me knows that I am the co-owner of Mojo radio, an Internet radio station. The automation system we use, live web DJ, currently only runs on Firefox or chrome. Where's the problem with this? Well, when I try to run it in Firefox, Firefox completely crashes about 90% of the time. It is the only site that does this to me On a consistent basis. For this purpose, I installed, and decided to test, Google Chrome. My cited relatives use it, and absolutely love it. I have been very resistant. On the site, when I am managing the media library in particular, there are combo boxes. One box is for exploring particular playlists; the other is for performing actions with the songs I have checked off. Deleting, or adding to one of my many playlists. The problem I am running into is that Unlike every other browser, I cannot simply scroll through the combo box to select the option I want. It simply selects the first option I get to when I down arrow. Yes, I have tried alt plus down arrow to open the box, thinking that that might allow me to read it. Works in every program accept this one. In Firefox, I can scroll through, once I find the option I want, I simply hit the tab key and it adds it to the specified playlist or asks me if I really want to delete it Other than that, Chrome works flawlessly with live web DJ. It doesn't crash, it doesn't hang or freeze… So, anyone know how I can easily work around this combo box issue? Running the latest builds of both JFW and Google Chrome as of yesterday. Thanks.
