You might try using the following shortcut keys for the various controls in this dialog box: Alt+N New entry.

Alt+s followed by tab moves to a combo box for choosing how the list is sorted. Use up or down arrow key. The top of the list is author. If you arrow down and JAWS doesn't speak the change in the combo box you can use Alt+r to move to the master list or Alt+u to move to the current Alt+document list to check the sort order being used. Alt+B browse. Allows you to browse for the source file. Alt+R Master list. Alt+u Current document list. Alt+C copy. You can copy from master list and paste to current list. CTRL+V Paste Alt+D to delete a selected entry. Alt+e for the edit button to edit the selected entry. Alt to bring up the system menu and choose close to close the box.

If I am writing an e-mail, and find the need to leave my computer before sending the message, I often like to save my message in the drafts folder. My usual way of doing this is to hit the escape key, at which time I will be asked whether I want the message to be saved. Of course, I respond by answering yes, thinking that all should be well.

Re: [JAWS-Users] reccording to computer from tapes
Hi Theresa, Many questions again. Okay...here goes. 1. Cassette tapes are in an analog format. To be saved on the computer, they must be converted to a digital format. Since your laptop has no audio inputs, you'll have to digitize the audio before transferring it to the computer via the USB port. Therefore: a.) You can buy an interface which has the ADC (analog to digital converter) built in. Or, b.) you can as you said, use a digital recorder, then simply transfer the files. 2. Either way, you'll end up with a recording where 2 of the 4 tracks will be present in the right and left stereo channels. If this happens, there's no way to separate them. However, if you transfer one side of the cassette at a time, you can then select either the right or left channels and make each into a separate audio track (i.e. saved as a separate file). Again, using either Audacity or Goldwave (Goldwave is better for this task), you can easily separate out the tracks. Again, I'm presuming that you're attempting to copy Library of Congress audio book format cassettes. For normal stereo (i.e. music) cassettes, the job is a bit easier. Best Buy and DAK Electronics both sell little plug-in audio interfaces for laptops. They typically feature a male USB connector to put into the computer on one end, and a 1/8 (3.5 millimeter) female audio port of the other side. Again, Goldwave is the best solution for software, both in terms of accessibility and functionality. However, you might want to search the Internet to find other applications that might be cheaper and/or easier. But Goldwave is what I use. Hope this helps, Paul --- - Original Message - From: Teresa Arroyo tarroyoll...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, December 28, 2014 1:20 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] reccording to computer from tapes Hi Paul, Thanks for your repply. Would it be possible to record a four-track tape with Audacity, wihich is free? If the old cable that conected old tape recorders doesn't work, I wonder if I could do the recording without conecting the recorder to the computer. Like in the old days when those cables were not around. I was also thinking about using a digital recorder and then transfering the content to the computer form there, but is it posible to do the four-track?

First off, see if you can find a USB to audio adaptor. I've seen a couple that use the 3.5 m.m. (1/8 inch) connector, but I haven't seen one that uses the same RCA phono connectors that were used on old tape decks. You might need an adaptor cable as well. Yes, using Goldwave you could record each side of the tape to digital, then cut/copy the left track or right track to a new sound file. If you don't have crosstalk between the channels, this will work fine. Same thing goes for Library of Congress format tapes, which are at half normal cassette speed; just record them into Goldwave, select the Pitch option from the Effects menu, then select (down one octave) to normalize the speed. A larger problem I have had with interfaces is that they fight over the ACEO drivers with JAWS, and JAWS usually loses. So, you might find yourself without speech. I don't know if any of this helps; I bought a $79.00 cheap direct-to-digital tape player that connects directly into a USB port. I'ts made by a company called Ion.

Re: [JAWS-Users] reccording to computer from tapes
Thanks a lot, Paul. I have some music recorded from radio and school concerts. I have a mixture of things in those four-track tapes. Teresa -Mensaje original- From: Paul Shallbetter Sent: Monday, December 29, 2014 11:51 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] reccording to computer from tapes Hi Theresa, Many questions again. Okay...here goes. 1. Cassette tapes are in an analog format. To be saved on the computer, they must be converted to a digital format. Since your laptop has no audio inputs, you'll have to digitize the audio before transferring it to the computer via the USB port. Therefore: a.) You can buy an interface which has the ADC (analog to digital converter) built in. Or, b.) you can as you said, use a digital recorder, then simply transfer the files. 2. Either way, you'll end up with a recording where 2 of the 4 tracks will be present in the right and left stereo channels. If this happens, there's no way to separate them. However, if you transfer one side of the cassette at a time, you can then select either the right or left channels and make each into a separate audio track (i.e. saved as a separate file). Again, using either Audacity or Goldwave (Goldwave is better for this task), you can easily separate out the tracks. Again, I'm presuming that you're attempting to copy Library of Congress audio book format cassettes. For normal stereo (i.e. music) cassettes, the job is a bit easier. Best Buy and DAK Electronics both sell little plug-in audio interfaces for laptops. They typically feature a male USB connector to put into the computer on one end, and a 1/8 (3.5 millimeter) female audio port of the other side. Again, Goldwave is the best solution for software, both in terms of accessibility and functionality. However, you might want to search the Internet to find other applications that might be cheaper and/or easier. But Goldwave is what I use.

Like in the old days when those cables were not around.

First off, see if you can find a USB to audio adaptor. I've seen a couple that use the 3.5 m.m. (1/8 inch) connector, but I haven't seen one that uses the same RCA phono connectors that were used on old tape decks. You might need an adaptor cable as well. Yes, using Goldwave you could record each side of the tape to digital, then cut/copy the left track or right track to a new sound file. If you don't have crosstalk between the channels, this will work fine. Same thing goes for Library of Congress format tapes, which are at half normal cassette speed; just record them into Goldwave, select the Pitch option from the Effects menu, then select (down one octave) to normalize the speed. A larger problem I have had with interfaces is that they fight over the ACEO drivers with JAWS, and JAWS usually loses. So, you might find yourself without speech. I don't know if any of this helps; I bought a $79.00 cheap direct-to-digital tape player that connects directly into a USB port. I'ts made by a company called Ion.

Re: [JAWS-Users] formatting with windows 7 and jaws 16
I am still using JAWS 14, but am currently on the same Word and Windows programs as you. There are a wealth of formatting options, just as in Word 2003, but the quickest way to get to the most frequently changed parameters from Word is to highlight the portion you wish to modify (or all of it with Ctrl A) then use Alt O then P to get to the Paragraph formatting options.. That paragraph should work the same as in the XP and 2003 version.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Regarding Adwcleaner
Mauricio, It might be safe to proceed with all items checked. But, it is a good idea to try to look over the list. Periodically, some programs are incorrectly identified as malware that aren't; I remember a while ago, the System Access screen reader had some components that were identified by Malware Bytes version 2 as malware. Obviously, if that happens, you could have some issues. So, to the extent you can, it is a good practice to look over the list. Obviously, you probably won't be able to know what the alphanumeric strings are that it might find in registry keys, but you can see what files, processes, browser help objects and toolbars it finds, and you can use a search engine to see if they are regarded as harmful. My experience with this program as been good on the five computers I've run it on so far. But, it isn't all-inclusive and I can't guarantee that it wouldn't hose something you might use.

However, in your instructions for using Adwcleaner, you mention having to check items we would like to have purged from our computers: What I would like to know is how will we know which items are necessary to remove and which should remain? Can the casual computer user cause harm if they choose to check all items without actually knowing what each item refers to, or is every item found by Adwcleaner fair game?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Regarding Adwcleaner
Hi Steve Mauricio, If you use the Send Space Wizard make sure to uncheck it! LOL LOL I left it checked just to see what would happen yes, I had to reinstall it. LOL However, the AdwCleaner creates a folder on the root of the C drive , is it safe to delete it's contents? The contents seem to tell you what has been removed I assume, am I correct / safe in my assumption? I do like the ease in which the program can be navigated with Jaws. Thank you very much for letting the list know about it. Take care.

I've tested this again (JAWS 16, MS-Word 2013), but with the same result. reviewing with the JAWS cursor shows that the dialog is present, but I can't move focus among the controls with tab and shift-tab as I should be able to do.
