When I first started using it, it was very clunky, somethings just wouldn't load, and sometimes you had to reboot for better results. Now that jaws 14 has an update, most things work. The main thing that doesn't work is when you go to type a signature, it doesn't read you the text, but it is there. When you try to switch between accounts it won't tell you witch account is highlighted. Spell check does the same thing, it will tell you there is a miss spelled word, but not read you the suggestions. Your suppose to be able to sign in to your sky drive account, and have your word documents saved there, but mine always tells me to look because there were arrows discovered. That's all I have found so far. FS knows, so we will see if they address it in the next update. As for activating office, now you go through an automated system, that walks you through and asks questions about how many pc's you have activated there product on, say 1, and it will give you a knew one.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable To Send Emails
Change to the outbox and check to see if there is an email stuck in there. If so take computer off line or pull the lan cable from back of your PC then delete that email from your out box. You may have to shut down outlook and turnit back on with the lan cable out or set outlook to work offline. This way you can delete the email that likely has to large of a file in your out box. Once done close outlook and plug in your lan cable then open it up again. Just a guess based on behavour.

I told them that if any of you were better than me you wouldn't be sitting there and I would not be sitting up here. I must admit that the teachers chair was more comfortable but I didn't get to stay in it very much.

So a up-date and not so correct sentences. First off I found a person, not on this group that was willing to work with myself and this computer. A: First off with all virus protection, which three they are all paid Pro programs. B: Still using Outlook Office as work for home and e-mail but will in time go to Outlook Office 2010 after finishing training in it. Just to busy training for up grades for AAA call center. C: I use Quicken 10 thinking and that runs my home entirely. That said. This is a Windows 7 and the owner on this list knows what it all has in it. Which Jaws 13 latest was working grand on it. When Internet 9 was installed, I decided to go with Jaws 14 that I have a license for. First stripping all of Jaws 13 and all associated to it. Then installed Jaws 14 February release. This proven to be a frustration as it would freeze up. I did report and to this date not heard from FS Tech that is looking at the dump files that was told on HIGH Priority. That said, I asked questions here and because of sentence and language barriers.. Well, I contacted a friend that uses Jaws here and there. He uses another screen reader but this is Jaws group. First off he noted that this machine was more or less set up for gamers. Thus noted go to the web site and see what recommendations and then to the Microsoft site and see the optional up dates see if related to the cards and bingo so down loaded them. Also installed with this gentleman's Help the newest of Java for windows 7 and 64 bit and installed. Unlike some comments on the list. It is a valued tool here and there. FS, Tech, also advised that one should have the latest of Java as noted on their site. Because of the Jaws not coming back and well just turn the power off on four different times. So Friday I did a complete disc clean up, left over night to do it's thing, the last step 7 hours. then After work did a defrag. To this point Jaws 14 seems by all accounts working and no disappearance of Jaws 14 to this point. I am going to leave it on all day today to see if Jaws 14 will still be there anytime during the day and evening. If so the ideas that my friend in Louisiana, who has a heart of Gold, willing to work with me knowing I am scared as heck of the guts of this computer. Slowly walk me through VIA Skype to complete the project at hand. Compared to the cold reception on the Jaws Users Group. Yet, There is some valued information with Blind Computing and Jaws users group so I don't mind donating to the keeping David's group site going. As in the business of Call Receiving at AAA, Presentation, compassion, understanding and tone of delivery which is highly recommended, demanded, that it could be used here. So quick to judge. There is myself and others that are scared as heck of the insides of the computer. Others here are A walk in the park on the insides of a computer. So how about cutting a break and understand all are not near the level as those of you that are on a higher level or experts. I can see why people are afraid
