Re: [JAWS-Users] Will jfw work on an ultra book?
Yes, I switched to a ssd on my laptop a little while ago, I bought a 64gb drive. I was a little concerned at the time on if it would be large enough or not but it seems to suit my needs, if you just keep the basics on it as has been said already, you would be fine but to be double sure, a 128gb drive would be the option, I have one of these in my desktop and it is sufficient. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Eric Damery Sent: 23 November 2012 14:41 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Will jfw work on an ultra book?

In addition to thinner and the reduced weight from a regular laptop, there are other advantages. It has a solid state drive rather than the traditional hard drives. SSD is quite a bit faster and it is very obvious on start up time, especially starting up after the lid is opened. And battery life is better than any laptop I ever owned. The marketing material tell you about 8 hours. It is not that much but I can get 4 or 5 hours of use no problem. Usually I just charge at night. I chose this particular model because of the keyboard. The arrow keys, Home, End, Page up/down all work without the need for the FN modifier key. It is very comfortable and unlike the netbooks, the spacing of keys is the same as a normal keyboard. Netbooks were about 15% smaller which made it difficult for me to switch back and forth with my other computer.

Re: [JAWS-Users] accessibility on gotomeeting and citrix online
I've had similar experiences with GoToMeeting. One caveat though. I worked with a conference organizer, and some how, we are not sure how, and we weren't able to reproduce it, but at some point, I was able to actually converse with him through the interface. The issue was that there is a bunch of controls on the screen, but JAWS refused to see them. Then, at some point, I was able to see all of the controls and interact with them, but was unable to do that during the actual live meeting. The conference organizer had done something along the lines of set my preferences differently during our test, and that put me in a different area when the our test conference started, which enabled me to see all the controls. However, when we tried that in the live conference, it didn't seem to work the same way. So, I will say that yes, in general it is mostly inaccessible, but it seems promising that it can be made to work. I think that should be a priority for Freedom Scientific since so many business related meetings are now being conducted via this platform. -- Blue skies.

[JAWS-Users] Using A DOS Application
Hi, I Wonder if any of you can help? I am currently using the latest build of JAWS 14 with Vocaliser voices. At work, I need to access and support an old MS DOS application and am having trouble getting JAWS to speak menus, forms, fields etc., within the application. I used to run a DOS Screen Reader many years ago, however, it was dependent upon a hardware speech synthesizer. Is it possible to run a package like JAWS For DOS on a PC, alongside JAWS 14 and, if so, how might I go about this? Would JAWS for DOS work with a software synthesizer? Alternatively, how might I configure JAWS 14 to work better with a DOS application (DataEase Database Software), or are there any scripts out there which might help? I know that JAWS works fine with the Command Prompt in WINDOWS XP, however, this is pretty rudimentary. I contacted Freedom Scientific but they cannot offer any support. They suggested contacting some of the user forums for advice. I look forward to hearing your thoughts, realising that some of the younger community on the list may not even know what MS DOS was. With Kind Regards, Charlie Nicol. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] accessibility on gotomeeting and citrix online
Not sure if this is still accurate but when using JAWS with Citrix, you must purchase an additional add-in for JAWS to work with Citrix and it must be installed on your employer's main frame. I tried this at my job a few years back and couldn't ever get JAWS to work correctly. - Original Message - From: Dan Rossi d...@andrew.cmu.edu To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2012 10:27 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] accessibility on gotomeeting and citrix online I've had similar experiences with GoToMeeting. One caveat though. I worked with a conference organizer, and some how, we are not sure how, and we weren't able to reproduce it, but at some point, I was able to actually converse with him through the interface. The issue was that there is a bunch of controls on the screen, but JAWS refused to see them. Then, at some point, I was able to see all of the controls and interact with them, but was unable to do that during the actual live meeting. The conference organizer had done something along the lines of set my preferences differently during our test, and that put me in a different area when the our test conference started, which enabled me to see all the controls. However, when we tried that in the live conference, it didn't seem to work the same way. So, I will say that yes, in general it is mostly inaccessible, but it seems promising that it can be made to work. I think that should be a priority for Freedom Scientific since so many business related meetings are now being conducted via this platform. -- Blue skies.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Using A DOS Application
If jaws for dos worked better with the program, I'd suggest finding an old computer and speech synthesizer. An xp machine could work with a serial synthesizer if it had a serial port (many did) but a serial port on a more modern machine is a rare thing. It is even more rare to find usb to serial drivers that don't put the port on some number no dos program will touch. I'm afraid that dos programs are pretty near their end, you can't run them on 64 bit systems without some sort of emulator, and that is where everything is going.
