Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with key stucking on laptop
Hi, When, you hear the studdering change the window . The only way to fix that is to run a jaws repair or live with it. Mine stutters like it's stuck in third gear, Holy Jesus! Jorge -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Joseph FreeTech Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2014 11:15 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with key stucking on laptop Hopefully others will chime in, but not being there to troubleshoot, off the top of my head, I'm going to assume the following possible fix(s)... . 1. You might have something running in the background or within MSConfig startup making the computer use lots of processing power when booting up. I suggest going into MSConfig and unloading what is not essential. I can help you with this if it is something you would like to try. 2. you might have an issue with your sound card drivers, and this may have been caused if you have your Windows Updates set to install automatically. You or someone else may have also accidentally manually installed something having to do with your soundcard which seemed important. If you have a USB headset try attaching and booting up your computer. The computer will push the audio through the USB rather than your speakers--hopefully you won't hear the stuttering anymore. 3. You might have some dirt and junk making the key stick resulting in the sending and resending of the signal. The following can cause keys to stick: ice cream, coffee, soda, etc. You will have to remove the key caps and clean them out with soap and water. This is simple to do, but can cause a bit of anxiety since you'll essentially have to forcefully pull the key caps off. . 4. If this is a new computer, sometimes manufacturers install additional sound card driver "features" which are suppose to give you this great audio experience, but it often causes problems such as echoing for screenreader users. You will want to check for this too. Feel free to write me off-list for free help with absolutely any computer related problem!

Use Alt+F followed by Alt+T to go into options. Use down arrow key to the Mail options category. Use Shift+Tab a few times and you will find the "After moving or deleting an open item" combo box. Press down arrow key until you find the "open the next item" choice. Tab to OK button and press spacebar. After setting that option the next message in the list should open after you close the current message or delete it. If you are reading a message and you just want to read the next one use CTRL with the period to open the next message or CTRL with comma to open the previous one. I think that will work okay in Outlook 2010. In Outlook 2013 the next and previous messages open but JAWS doesn't seem to focus right all the time. Take care.

After all, you all are far more knowledgeable than I, so let me explain. Until I got this computer, which my computer guru pre-loaded for me (with legally licensed software) I used Outlook express, and liked it. One of the things I really liked was that I could go into a folder, start with the first message, open and read it, hit delete, and the next message would automatically open and JAWS would read it. This made clearing a folder easy and relatively effort free. I can't do that with my Outlook 2007. I have to open the message, let JAWS read it, then close the message, delete the read message, go to the next message and repeat. I know I could probably find OE again somewhere, but there are features in Outlook I really do like, and, well, it's here, so I'm willing to keep it, and if there is no way to set it to do what I described above, I can live with that, too ... but is there a way?
