Re: [JAWS-Users] problem with alt key on the right
I don't have Windows8, so can't tell you exactly where it is there. It'll be in the equivalent of Control Panel, Keyboards, settings, layout tab control. Unless it was changed radically in Windows8, Easier to just play with the left alt+shift keys, and see what comes on. . Thus you would press left alt+shift keys, repeatedly if necessary, and when it says, "setting keyboard layout to US" leave it there. If you don't know how this setting got changed, accidentally pressing those keys together is the most likely way it happened. - Original Message - From: "diane giannetti" To: Sent: Saturday, November 15, 2014 1:10 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] problem with alt key on the right Hi Flora and Mike.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: problem with alt key on the right
Hi Diane, I encounter the same problem on a daily basis with JFW 15 on different PCs running Windows 7. I brought this problem to the attention of technical support at Freedom Scientific on several occasions during the last year. The technical support folks diagnosed the problem as a sticky control key. It has nothing to do with your keyboard layout. And as Mike says below, the only way to resolve the problem is to reboot your computer. It would be great if you and others encountering this problem would report it to FS technical support so they can resolve the problem.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: problem with alt key on the right
Hi Robert, Does it occur on both of your alt keys? On Diane's, it doesn't. (if it were a sticky key issue it should occur on both left and right sides.) Rebooting did not solve the problem for her, and it only started happening that day. So your symptoms may not be the same. If I may say so,your symptoms are like the reocurrence of an old, old, problem in JAWS that used to happen quite regularly way back in the days of JAWS3x, and that mysteriously vanished with no known cause or solution. Rebooting fixed the issue then. Another possible fix is to hit the alt, shift, and ctrl keys multiple times in quick succession (this sometimes restores the status quo ante). - Original Message - From: "Robert Arrabito" To: Sent: Saturday, November 15, 2014 3:01 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: problem with alt key on the right Hi Diane, I encounter the same problem on a daily basis with JFW 15 on different PCs running Windows 7.

Hi Artur, Thank you very very much! Is it safe to assume that Excel will also be reverse compatible? I'm just trying to be sure before I purchase an Office suite that won't be compatible with much older formats. This is going to be a gift so Thanks again. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Document Accessibility With Office 2013
Mike, Word 2013 on my PC, by default, when saving as a "Word Document" in the Save As feature, saves the documents as .doc files, reading as Word 97-2003 in the Type column in File Explorer. So I guess the answer is yes. Mike blindb...@comcast.net -Original Message- From: Mike B.

Re: [JAWS-Users] need some help with saving attachments
Hi, Open the mail Then, shift tab. Then, right arrow on the message heading. Use the right arrow, until you locate the first attachment. Press F 12 and the save menu option will read. Next, tab through the menu until you hear the save button, which is next to the tools You can also rename it and change the format, before you save it. You will have to save each attachment. OR press control + shift + right arrow to select I believe it's easier saving one at atime HTH, Jorge -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Kathy Pingstock Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2014 3:00 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] need some help with saving attachments I am using Ms Outlook, how do I save 3 different attachments from an e-mail?
