[JAWS-Users] ocr failed to start
I'm using Windows 7 home premium 64 bit with the latest build of Jaws 16. When I tried to do an OCR on a pdf document that appeared to be empty, it says "OCR failed to start". How do you fix that? I had several versions of Freedom Scientific OCR so removed all those plus Freedom Scientific Fine Reader and FS Omnipage, then reinstalled from the file I downloaded from FS's web site. Still problem persists. Shane For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] Transferring a PDF?
Hi List, When I find a PDF of some form of information on the internet, if I just copy that file name how do I import it into either my Open Book 8 or 9? I have both of them and am using Jaws 14. I do have, but have not yet installed Jaws 16. I am using either Internet Explorer 11 or the latest Fire Fox browser. Any help will be gratefully received!!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Guide for Uninstalling Jaws
Use the Windows key, search for Jaws, open the folder arrow down until you hear uninstall jaws and follow the prompts, do not say yes to remove shared components unless FS has suggested you do so. Alternatively go into the control panel to remove programs arrow down to Jaws and press the context key to and press enter on uninstall, this sometimes suggests you go uninstall from the Jaws menu. It is easy, really it is, I usually keep two versions on my main computer, just in case, but this one any the laptop I will be using for work just have 16 on them. You can't learn how to do stuff with your computer if you won't take small chances with good directions. This one is basically a simple thing to accomplish. I have been doing uninstalls since 1998 with various versions with only one time having a problem it took longer to fix than I anticipated, when I deleted shared components. That was a very long time ago, and eventually I had to install a version from disk then upgrade to fix the problem. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Trish Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 12:04 PM To: Jaws Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] Guide for Uninstalling Jaws I think it would be a good idea if it's not a lot of trouble to put on your web site David, a file explaining to us nervous types how and what to uninstall of a prior version of Jaws.

Re: [JAWS-Users] regarding iTunes update of 12.1.1.4
It is usable somewhat but certainly not as easy as 11. Why they took so much accessibility out of it is what I do not understand. I'd much rather work where I have a real keyboard to type on where a touch on the screen does not send you off to nowhere land sometimes no matter how careful you are but have to admit since 12, I have used my phone more, but the iPad mini, it is just too sensitive, even with the setting changed to slow it down, I think I can blow on it and it will go bouncing around. I appreciate voiceover on my phone and the iPad, so why can't they make iTunes work without having to tab all over the place, sometimes the control and a number works, sometimes not. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Kimber Gardner Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 11:23 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] regarding iTunes update of 12.1.1.4 iTunes drives me nuts especially version 12.

[JAWS-Users] Finding and locating Text within a PDF using Adobe Reader
Hi Group, Using Windows 7 and JAWS 16 with Adobe PDF Reader. I have a question regarding searching for text within a large PDF document. When I need to locate a word or text string within a PDF document, the only way to do this is by using the search dialog box within Adobe Reader by using the Control+F key combination. Using the JAWS search tool won't work because it will only find text on the current page. If the search is successful, Adobe Reader will present the page within the document with the search text highlighted. I then need to press the Escape key to exit the Adobe Reader search dialog box. The question now becomes, how do you get JAWS to locate on that highlighted text? If you just start reading with JAWS, it will either start at the top of the page or where you were reading from if you had previously visited that page. I know I can then do a JAWS search on that page to find that same text but it would be nice if JAWS would automatically locate itself on that highlighted text so you could just start reading from there when you escaped from the Adobe search tool. For another potential work around, is there some function within JAWS scripting that will locate a highlighted block of text on the current page? That way, a small script could be written to move JAWS to that text position with a single keystroke. Surely others must do this as well and know how to automatically link the found text to JAWS.

[JAWS-Users] Guide for Uninstalling Jaws
I think it would be a good idea if it's not a lot of trouble to put on your web site David, a file explaining to us nervous types how and what to uninstall of a prior version of Jaws.

Re: [JAWS-Users] regarding iTunes update of 12.1.1.4
No, just pressing enter isn't enough to select the song for that doesn't select it for sync-ing. I believe the keystroke is control enter. Then when arrowing up and down in the list jaws should tell whether a given song is checked or not. On 2/25/15, Kimsan wrote: > As far as checking the boxes, I did that and that did not work.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Uninstalling Jaws
Trish, I do not believe it really makes a difference. The important thing is whether you want to uninstall the shared components.

Even if you get it from, Piriform, the people that make CCleaner that's going to happen. When you install CCleaner it's necessary to read all the screens thoroughly using the Jaws cursor & if you do this on the, Install button, you would see checkboxes that need to be unchecked so Chrome & the Google toolbar don't get installed. But, there is a great work around for this, a program called Unchecky! Information is below: Anyone who is concerned about unintentionally installing promotional software may be interested in trying Unchecky. http://unchecky.com/ It runs in the background as a service and monitors for recognized installers. It then automatically unchecks any checkboxes related to installing toolbars, browsers, and similar unwanted products. I have not thoroughly tested the program and it is not guaranteed to catch everything, but there have already been several updates since the initial release so I'm sure it's detection rate will improve. I've been using the program described above for quite awhile now & I've never had a problem with the Chrome or the Google toolbar since I installed it. HTH Take care.

I do not remember having this problem in the past, so it looks like Puriform is now forcing Chrome down your throat whether you want it or not. Chrome is still not especially JAWS accessible, and removing it is a real pain. Therefore, I suggest that a warning be added to the CCleaner download link that downloading and installing CCleaner will also result in the installation of Google Chrome, which is nothing but unwanted crapware for most JAWS users.

[JAWS-Users] Excel 10 & Windows 8.1
I thought I saw this discussed a while back but I can’t find it so... Using Excel 10 on my Windows 8.1 laptop... When I use F2 to open and edit a cell, Jaws does not say the character when I use the left/right arrows. It will say the entire contents when I hit the up/down arrows. I know the arrows are moving the cursor because It will tell me the name of the character if I backspace/erase it. I do not have this problem when using Excel on my Window 7 machine. I do however have arrow problems on both laptops when using OneNote but no problem on either when using Word. Any ideas?

Re: [JAWS-Users] regarding iTunes update of 12.1.1.4
Hi Kimsan, Try this and see if it helps. In your music library you will find an iTunes folder. Open that, and arrow down one time. You should find a folder named iTunes Media. Open that, and find Automatically add to iTunes. Open that folder, and place your selected songs in that folder.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Warning About Downloading CCleaner From JAWSUsers Programs Page
Hi Ted, It doesn't matter where you get CCleaner from. Even if you get it from, Piriform, the people that make CCleaner that's going to happen. When you install CCleaner it's necessary to read all the screens thoroughly using the Jaws cursor & if you do this on the, Install button, you would see checkboxes that need to be unchecked so Chrome & the Google toolbar don't get installed. But, there is a great work around for this, a program called Unchecky! Information is below: Anyone who is concerned about unintentionally installing promotional software may be interested in trying Unchecky. http://unchecky.com/ It runs in the background as a service and monitors for recognized installers. It then automatically unchecks any checkboxes related to installing toolbars, browsers, and similar unwanted products. I have not thoroughly tested the program and it is not guaranteed to catch everything, but there have already been several updates since the initial release so I'm sure it's detection rate will improve. I've been using the program described above for quite awhile now & I've never had a problem with the Chrome or the Google toolbar since I installed it. HTH Take care.
