Re: [JAWS-Users] Introduction and a very annoying JAWS Error
If the talking installer isn’t talking then this points to some more fundamental issue with the laptop. Have you checked to see if Narrator talks? I have seen issues before where certain sound drivers disturb the speech in both narrator and eloquence. Go to device manager and uninstall your sound card, reboot your machine and then try uninstalling and installing jaws again.

Hi Chela, Please take note, I changed the subject line to reflect the topic being discussed, since the introduction has already been made.

Re: [JAWS-Users] no add or remove programs
Hmm, well. Let me think. What version of windows do you have. You don't know it. Ok, a easy way is if you can get a description of your windows. For example, when you press the windo key, you heard something like Start menu, to navigate up or down arrow? then you have windows xp. but if you heard something like Start menu, search box edit. . type text in this edit box or up or down arrow... then you have windows 7. Now, if you have windows xp, you will have on the start menu, the control panel, or you will have something called settings, and inside will be control panel. Then when you have control panel open, you should press tab, until you heard something like clasic view. Press enter here, and you will get the icon of add and remove programs. The clasic view shows the most part of the settings available in windows xp. If you have windows 7, is not very different, when is open control panel, you should press tab until you heard clasic view. - Original Message - From: t. conley n4the...@live.com To: jul jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, October 13, 2013 7:57 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] no add or remove programs when I go to my laptop’s control panel, there is no add or remove programs listed on the page. how can I open the list, and add this heading to the control panel? not sure if I use win 7 or xp For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] Editing Word DOC When Using JAWS
Hello All, I am looking for recommendations for how a JAWS 12 or 14 user can provide feedback and recommended edits to a MS-Word 2010 document. Everyone on the team provides their input to the document through track changes or by making pen marks on the hardcopy. The business need of the task flow will determine the order in which each team member receives the document for their input. The second person gets to see the first person's feedback, and the third person gets to see the feedback from both the first and second person. This is to eliminate duplication, making it easier for the final person to make decisions about what will be changed. It is clear to everyone that the hardcopy method needs to be eliminated and everyone needs to provide their feedback electronically, or a human reader needs to be provided as an accommodation. If electronic is the path taken, here are my questions. 1.Is there a viable way for a JAWS user to gain valuable information from track changes. I have not figured out how, so any feedback, suggestions, and/or recommended resources to learn how to do this will be appreciated. 2. Is there any improvements in the use of MS-Words Comment feature with JAWS 14? For me it appears that the access to the Comments feature in MS-Word 2010 by JAWS 12 has been broken. I used to use it in Office 2003. I would highlight the character, word, phrase, etc. and insert a comment containing my suggested changes, question, recommendations, etc. Is it possible to use the comments feature in MS-Word 2010 and some version of JAWS? 3. If anyone has a suggestion for a different way of accomplishing this task, your feedback will be appreciated.

[JAWS-Users] how to learn how to use WLM 2012.
Hi all, ok I am behind the times, but I don’t know how to use WLM 2012. One thing is, I don’t understand how to use the ribbon, and I don’t know how to set up my BCC field and set up my rules in this thing. So, what to do? I am using jaws 15, latest beta, and WLM 2012 on a windows 7 home premium computer. Jim For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to install Jaws
Hello All, I think I'm finally getting somewhere, but you can kindly input whether or not I'm on the right track of thinking seeing as is I'm still waking up and have already gotten ready for church, so here is what I was able to do and here is what I'm thinking.

Should I delete this folder since I'm going to do a fresh install of JAWS since I already uninstalled JAWS and the Freedom Scientific folders in both C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (x86) folders now it is seen in the app data roaming folder under my username so was just wondering if I should delete it? -- Teachers have a sacred task: It is to give children the skills to understand the world and an expectation that the world is a trustworthy place; that it is full of light, and love, and music and that each student deserves--and will have--their own place in it and the chance to play their own song.

if you have more than jaws installed, just delete the folder called jaws that is inside freedom. But, is very important that you 1. uninstalled jaws. 2.

Everyone on the team provides their input to the document through track changes or by making pen marks on the hardcopy. The business need of the task flow will determine the order in which each team member receives the document for their input. The second person gets to see the first person's feedback, and the third person gets to see the feedback from both the first and second person. This is to eliminate duplication, making it easier for the final person to make decisions about what will be changed. It is clear to everyone that the hardcopy method needs to be eliminated and everyone needs to provide their feedback electronically, or a human reader needs to be provided as an accommodation. If electronic is the path taken, here are my questions. 1.Is there a viable way for a JAWS user to gain valuable information from track changes. I have not figured out how, so any feedback, suggestions, and/or recommended resources to learn how to do this will be appreciated. 2. Is there any improvements in the use of MS-Words Comment feature with JAWS 14? For me it appears that the access to the Comments feature in MS-Word 2010 by JAWS 12 has been broken. I used to use it in Office 2003. I would highlight the character, word, phrase, etc. and insert a comment containing my suggested changes, question, recommendations, etc. Is it possible to use the comments feature in MS-Word 2010 and some version of JAWS? 3. If anyone has a suggestion for a different way of accomplishing this task, your feedback will be appreciated.

If I had a Windows 7 disk to do the fresh install, I'd do it myself with sighted assistance, unless this new talking installation of Windows installation I just heard about from Top Tech Tidbits would help, but in that case I'd still have to have the Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installer disks and that might as well be expensive...so, JAWS has come to a stalemate with me, and I don't think the FS team will be able to help me, but I guess it will be worth the call on Monday...and if nothing changes then, I'm just going to have to use NVDA until I get my computer Rehab will purchase for me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Editing Word DOC When Using JAWS
Hi George, Yes, we are using a network and I do not have a question about how to get the document from person to person. Rather, I want to know how, if possible to use JAWS with the Track Changes or Comments feature in MS-Word 2010. When Track Changes are on, JAWS reads everything that it comes across and it ends up making little to know sense. When using the Comments feature you can barely create a comment, and forget about reviewing what you just typed into a comment, or reading a previously created comment. I am hoping that my negative experiences just described above are the result of my limited knowledge and that there is a way to utilize either one or both of these MS-Word features when using JAWS.

Everyone on the team provides their input to the document through track changes or by making pen marks on the hardcopy. The business need of the task flow will determine the order in which each team member receives the document for their input. The second person gets to see the first person's feedback, and the third person gets to see the feedback from both the first and second person. This is to eliminate duplication, making it easier for the final person to make decisions about what will be changed. It is clear to everyone that the hardcopy method needs to be eliminated and everyone needs to provide their feedback electronically, or a human reader needs to be provided as an accommodation. If electronic is the path taken, here are my questions. 1.Is there a viable way for a JAWS user to gain valuable information from track changes. I have not figured out how, so any feedback, suggestions, and/or recommended resources to learn how to do this will be appreciated. 2. Is there any improvements in the use of MS-Words Comment feature with JAWS 14? For me it appears that the access to the Comments feature in MS-Word 2010 by JAWS 12 has been broken. I used to use it in Office 2003. I would highlight the character, word, phrase, etc. and insert a comment containing my suggested changes, question, recommendations, etc. Is it possible to use the comments feature in MS-Word 2010 and some version of JAWS? 3. If anyone has a suggestion for a different way of accomplishing this task, your feedback will be appreciated.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Editing Word DOC When Using JAWS
Hello Annette, Here are a few things you might be able to use. I had some notes that I created some time ago that I am pasting below. Take care. TRACKING REVISIONS USING JAWS AND WORD 2010 Turn tracking on by using CTRL+shift+E. If using insert+v to bring up JAWS verbosity, press the letter T until the track changes choice is found. Use spacebar to cycle between the choices JAWS gives for what is spoken when revisions are found and then press enter key to accept a choice. Choices include type, type and author, type, author and date, as well as others. You can use Windows key with semicolon in Word 2010 to bring up a virtual window with options for viewing comments, footnotes, endnotes or revisions. The virtual window will have links to the comments, revisions, etc. Use enter key on any link to move to the targeted reference. If a change has been made in a document and the document has been saved you can use the Windows key with semicolon and press enter on the revision choice. If you follow the link to a revision you can read the revision. You can then use the application key and the accept and reject revision choices will be present. Press enter key on the appropriate choice. You can create a comment using the hotkey CTRL with Alt and M. If that hotkey has been used by you for a different purpose then the New Comment choice is under the review tab. You can list all comments in the document by using CTRL with Shift and apostrophe. This will list all reviewer's comments and you can arrow to the one you want to move to and press enter key. Alt with Shift and apostrophe will read a comment at the cursor position. You can list the comments and move to one and then delete either that one or all in the document by choosing the review tab and tabbing to the delete menu, which contains those choices. You can also use Windows key with semicolon and use the Footnote choice to move to a footnote. Focus will go into the footnote pane but you can use shift with function key 5 to move to your previous position in the document. If you do any coauthoring you can set the status bar to show such things as number of authors editing, track changes, and document updates available. When you move to a revision the contextual menu accessed by using the application key gives choices for accepting or rejecting the revision. If you use the Accept and Reject options frequently for revisions, you might want to consider setting those options to hotkeys. The following steps can be followed to set a hotkey for the accept and move to next action found on the lower part of the ribbon under the review tab. 1. Press Alt followed by R followed by A to move focus to the Accept and Move to Next option. 2. Press the Application key or Shift+f10. (Right click with the mouse). 3. Use up arrow key a couple times and press enter key on the Customize the Ribbon menu item. 4. Use tab key a couple of times to a list of commands and make sure that the selected command is Accept and Move to Next. 5. Use tab key one more time to move to the Customize button and use the spacebar. 6. In the category list make sure you select the Review option. Press R in the list of categories until that option is selected. 7. Use tab key to the Commands list box. 8. The first three options in the list have to do with accepting changes. Use up or down arrow key to select the one you want to use with a hotkey. 9. Use tab key one time to find out if there is a current key combination applied to the command. If not, use tab key again to the edit box for the new hotkey. 10. Type in the hotkey combination. You might consider using Alt+CTRL+Shift+A. Be sure to actually use the hotkey when entering what you want to use in the edit box. In other words, hold down all three modifier keys, press A and then release all keys. 11. Use tab key one more time and choose if you want to use this key combination in the normal template so it will be available in all new documents based on the normal template. Arrow down one time in the Save In combo box if you want your changes to only be for the current document. 12. Use tab key and find the Assign button. Use spacebar on that button. The new hotkey combination should appear in the list of currently assigned keys. I have found that it sometimes takes a few seconds before showing in the list. 13. Use tab key to the Close button and use spacebar. 14. Use tab key to the OK button and use spacebar.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to install Jaws
The version of Eloquence with JAWS is locked into JAWS, and it as such has NO EFFECT on any other program. . Can you uninstall your Eloquence (for NVDA) and then try the JAWS install? Then afterwards, if you like, once JAWS has been successfully ins talled, try reinstalling the Eloquence you use with NVDA. I have the K1000 Eloquence and it doesn't affect JAWS use with Eloquence. - Original Message - From: Chela Robles cdrobles...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Monday, October 14, 2013 12:48 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Unable to install Jaws Well this Eloquence dilemma is getting worse because I tried to see if it would load for another program, knowing it works well with NVDA and not JAWS, it also is not working with Kurzweil 1000, because I tried to switch engines and voices, and I think the same file or files required by JAWS would also make it work with other TTS programs like K1000, but strangely it works with NVDA but I just realize the reason why it works with NVDA is because it is a plugin.
