Hi Tim, Everyone having a problem with Jaws should contact Freedom Scientific independently, whether it is by phone or e-mail, that shows a more accurate representation of the problem.

You shouldn't have to re-boot the computer to get Jaws to read correctly, especially if you have just started the machine for the first time of the day. I am experiencing similar problems with Jaws 16, If I open a folder that contains more than several hundred sub-folders, it does not report the list view correctly. I have a folder with 1875 sub-folders, and when I open it, Jaws will report the name of a sub-folder, and report it's location in the list view as 1 of 403, when in fact it is 530 in the list. Jaws will not report the list view from the top of the list. Having said that, if I use "Insert + Escape" to refresh the screen, and have Jaws read the current line, it will then report the number correctly.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Word tables: JAWS 16 Labeling/ Reading column headings
You can also go to insert on the ribbon and insert a bookmark where the rows and columns meet. Type the word "Title" when you add a bookmark and it will then read the titles for rows and columns when you maneuver around. This should also work when you share the file. If this is not correct, someone please correct me. HTH!

[JAWS-Users] Tabbing Through Fields in Outlook Address Book
Greetings I am not able to get JFW 15 to read the names automatically when tabbing through the areas of the address book. Specifically when creating an appointment, selecting attendees where some are required while others are optional, JFW doesn't read out the names when I tab to the areas where they should be listed. All I hear is semi colon for each entry. If I use the Jaws cursor to review the screen they are there. Is there a setting I've overlooked? As for a bit of information, this is on Windows 7 running Outlook 2010 to access an Exchange server. JFW reads the entries once I've closed the address book. The issue is only when the address book is open and in the fields for required, optional and resources.

You shouldn't have to re-boot the computer to get Jaws to read correctly, especially if you have just started the machine for the first time of the day. I am experiencing similar problems with Jaws 16, If I open a folder that contains more than several hundred sub-folders, it does not report the list view correctly. I have a folder with 1875 sub-folders, and when I open it, Jaws will report the name of a sub-folder, and report it's location in the list view as 1 of 403, when in fact it is 530 in the list. Jaws will not report the list view from the top of the list. Having said that, if I use "Insert + Escape" to refresh the screen, and have Jaws read the current line, it will then report the number correctly. Yes, I too would like an answer to this as well, an e-mail to FS tech support is no doubt in order.

[JAWS-Users] J16.0.1925 Update Direct Download Links & What's New
Hi All, Below are direct download links for the latest Jaws 16.0.1925 update & what's new in this release: 32 Bit: http://files.freedomscientific.com/WebFiles/JAWS/J16.0.1925ENU-32bit.exe 64 Bit: http://files.freedomscientific.com/WebFiles/JAWS/J16.0.1925ENU-64bit.exe The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 16 December 2014 release and the January 2015 update. JAWS list of 12 items • In response to reports from the Veterans Administration as well as other federal agencies in the United States and Europe, resolved issues with using JAWS 16 with Microsoft Lync 2010 and 2013. • Addressed an issue reported by several customers where the virtual buffer would suddenly appear blank while navigating a Web page in Internet Explorer. • Firefox users can now use Contracted Braille input when typing text into edit fields on Web pages. This is especially beneficial in academic testing environments, such as Smarter Balance Testing, that only use Firefox as their testing platform. • Addressed numerous issues that were submitted to Freedom Scientific through the JAWS Error Reporting feature. • Resolved an issue with the People Search Research It lookup source not returning any results. • A customer reported issues when attempting to modify the voice profile for the DECTalk USB synthesizer. This has been resolved. • Addressed issues with the JAWS Command Search not locating certain commands as expected. For example, Read Speaker's Notes (CTRL+SHIFT+N) in PowerPoint, and List Spelling Errors (ALT+SHIFT+L) in Word. • A customer reported that if the Table Layer (INSERT+SPACEBAR, T) is active, pressing CTRL+P to play or stop audio in FSReader was exiting the layer. Now, pressing CTRL+P to play and stop audio, as well as CTRL+COMMA and CTRL+PERIOD to rewind or fast forward, will no longer exit the Table Layer. • Resolved an issue where JAWS would say "read-only edit" each time the ARROW keys were pressed to move by character or word in certain types of read-only edit fields. • Addressed an issue where Convenient OCR was not working as expected when JAWS 16 was installed on a system with a Spanish version of OpenBook. • An issue was resolved where attempting to install a French Canadian update for JAWS using Check for Updates was not working. French Canadian users can now use Check for Updates to install the JAWS 16 January update. • Addressed an issue with the virtual ribbon not being spoken in the Polish version of Microsoft Office. list end Microsoft Excel list of 1 items • Addressed an issue with the current cell coordinates not being displayed correctly in braille Structured Mode when a column or row is hidden. list end Microsoft Internet Explorer list of 3 items • Resolved an issue where JAWS would become sluggish while typing in the Search edit field on Google.com. • An issue was reported where Internet Explorer would intermittently stop working unexpectedly on Web pages with JAWS running. This has been addressed. • Resolved an issue with Google Docs searchable menus where JAWS was not reading newly selected items. This was observed with Internet Explorer 10 and later. list end Microsoft Outlook list of 3 items • If INSERT+ESC was pressed to refresh the screen while focused in a message folder in Outlook 2010, resolved an issue where you could no longer move to items in the message list using standard navigation commands. • Resolved issues navigating the Phone view of the Contacts list in Outlook 2010. • Resolved an issue where you could not use the ARROW keys to review a link inserted in the body of a new message. list end Microsoft Word list of 4 items • Resolved an issue where JAWS was reading cross reference fields in a document as a series of numbers instead of the actual text of the cross reference. • Resolved an issue where Word was closing unexpectedly in some instances when typing in a form field that was moved to using the F11 keystroke. • Addressed a customer reported issue where JAWS was reading extraneous text when encountering a citation in Word 2013. • If Typing Echo is set to Characters, addressed a reported issue with the HOME and END keys not being announced when pressed. list end Mozilla Firefox list of 2 items • Improved JAWS performance with tables that use ARIA. • Addressed an issue with JAWS not always reading ARIA labels on menus. list end Quicken Intuit’s Quicken team has been working to increase the accessibility of Quicken 15 for Windows. You will find many improvements in keyboard functionality and object identification in this latest version. During this process, Intuit also updated the existing JAWS scripts for Quicken to further increase functionality. While these script updates were made for Quicken 15, they should work with prior versions as well. These updated scripts offer the following improvements: list of 3 items • When focused on the Account list, Bills and Income reminders, or Account register screens,

Hi Tom, You can also move the folder out of the In box and onto the main tree. That is one of the options available if you go to the Ribbon and then to the Folder tab. Yes, you can delete folders from within the In box but I don't think you can delete the In box itself.

Hello. No matter what I tried that was suggested here, I could not delete the 2 folders in question. Out of frustration, I called the Handicapped Help desk at MS. The fellow told me what to do and still nothing. Finally he did a tandem session. He took Outlook 2010 off line. I am not exactly sure what went on after that but he actually was back on-line when both folders were deleted with the delete key alone. He made it look so easy. So, if anybody needs to do this and absolutely cannot, MS Handicapped Desk can help.

Hi Trish, I am not sure how your default save location got changed, and I have not used Windows 7 in a while, but try the following: Press WinKey+E, select Libraries, right click on the Documents folder, and select Properties. On one of the tabs here, you can include some folders and Set the default save location , so the Save as dialog box for document files should show that selected folder. You can do this for pictures, music and videos as well. I hope this works for you. As I said, I haven't used Win 7 in quite a while, and I am going off of my poor, poor memory.
