[JAWS-Users] File Manager Not Available Message with JAWS 16
Hi All, Can anyone help me with this problem? I have a new Toshiba laptop, and using JAWS 16 and repeatedly get a message saying File Manager Not Available. This often begins with closing a file using Alt, F followed by X. After several file managers not being able to shut, I am unable to access any further documents, the desktop or folders. I have to shutdown the computer and begin again. Any thoughts?

Do you think it will be possible to upgrade to win 10 without sighted

Hi Dave,
If you upgrade your current version of Windows, (Windows 7, 8 or 8.1),
within one (1) year from the release of Windows 10,
the upgrade is free.
After that period, Windows 10 will have to be purchased either by download
from Microsoft, or by purchasing a new computer with Windows 10 already
installed.
You would have to consult the Microsoft website for their pricing
schedule.
From what I understand, this will be the last version of Windows,any
updates
to it will be mandatory unless you have a premium version installed.
It appears that they are following the model of Apple.
Pay close attention to what I said earlier, this is an upgrade for Windows
users, not an update, there is a big difference.
Now having said that,also keep in mind that any of this info is subject to
change since Windows 10 has not
made it to public release yet.

I can't seem to do this on my Windows 7 work laptop using Jaws 16. I guess my problem is determining where the Jaws key is on the laptop.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Accessible Google Search
A Google search functions just fine for me. I type in the search criteria after I've logged into my Google account, press enter, then press the letter H to go directly to the headings of the search results. Each hit is a heading, so you can simply press H all the way down the page, at which point, if one wants more information on a particular hit, one simply arrows down from that particular heading. Just so I don't lose my place in the hit list, I have my search results to display on a separate tab or page when I enter on one of the hits I want to view, that way, once I've seen if that hit yielded the desired results, I can either choose to save it for off-line viewing, add it to my favourites, or do what ever I need with it. I am assured however, that whether I have gleaned the information I needed from the viewed page, that I'll be returned to my place in the hit list to keep looking for results. This setting comes in handy as I have my results set to display 100 hit per page. Either way, I've never had any problems that I can think of when doing a Google search on the regular site of http://www.google.com/ I even have my homepage set to it, which is kind of redundant, I know, as my default search engine is set as Google, and I can actually search from the address bar, but old habits die hard. LOL. Either way, I am also using Windows 7 home edition, with Jaws 16, and Internet Explorer 11. Perhaps that could be your problem? Not updating to the newest version of Internet Explorer?

You have a year to install it for free, so, hold off, until FS has a
version of jaws that is compatible with it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] dectalk usb and my pc's sleep mode.
Hello Adam, I don't use a USB DecTalk synthesizer but if you find that other USB connected devices do the same then you might want to disable the USB suspension mode under the advanced power options. Here are the steps to follow if you want to see if turning off the suspend mode makes a difference for the DecTalk USB synthesizer. 1. type power options into the Windows search box. 2. Use down arrow to the Change power-saving options choice and press enter key. 3. Tab to the change plan settings link for the plan you are using and press the spacebar. 4. Tab to the Advance Power Settings link and use spacebar. Focus should be in the combo box where you choose the plan. 5. Tab to the Settings tree view and use down arrow key until you get to the USB settings item. 6. Use right arrow key to open a level in this tree view if JAWS says it is closed. 7. Use down arrow to the USB selective suspend setting and then use right arrow to expand this level. 8. Arrow down to the Setting item and use right arrow key to find a combo box where you can disable the suspend mode. 9. If the setting is enabled just arrow down to the Disabled option. 10. Press enter key to make your change. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws updates
It's probably better to install JAWS updates from the Freedom Scientific web site http://www.freedomscientific.com/JAWSHQ/JAWSHeadquarters01than it is to download the patch that you get when you download updates from the notices. Downloading from the FS site takes longer, but you get a completely new version rather than a patch grafted on to your resident version. Once you get to the main site, hit the downloads link and follow instructions to your particular product - be careful to select either 32 bit or 64 bit as appropriate - or perhaps like adobe the site can tell what you have resident on your computer. At the end of the download you will not get a set up wizard like you get when you first download a new version. From my experience, the download will maintain all of your JAWS settings.

Do you get speech from the DecTalk USB then? Also, I notice that capital letters are announced at a higher pitch when one backspaces verses when you write a capital letter. Have you noticed this?

Hi Petras, When you get down to a certain percentage of battery power (ten percent or so), Jaws should announce Low Battery and advise you to save your work and plug into an outlet.

Re: [JAWS-Users] changing startup and shut down sound
Hello, There is a small utility, a portable app, which gives a person the ability to change the Windows 7 startup sound. It apparently also works on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 but I haven't tested it on those versions of Windows. It is called WinAeroTweaker. The developer has made this portable app available for download but not for distribution without his consent. The download is in a zipped file. When you open the zipped file and run the WinAeroTweaker.EXE file you will be told it needs to be uncompressed. Do this and when unzipping is done a folder is created in the same folder you have the downloaded file, which is usually your downloads folder. When you open the folder there is a subfolder for Windows 7 and a WinAeroTweaker.EXE file on the same level. If using Windows 7 you should open that folder and use the WinAeroTweaker.EXE file in it. It is possible that the WinAeroTweaker file on the same level as the Windows 7 folder is for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 but I haven't tried it. When you use the WinAeroTweaker.EXE file in the Windows 7 folder, run it, and agree to security prompts, you are in a list of things the program will do. If you read the current line JAWS might say information one of one. Use down arrow key because there are several options. When you get to the Startup sound item use tab key until you get to the Replace startup sound option and use spacebar. You can then browse for the sound you want to use and use the open button to choose it. You will get a reboot button, which you need to use for the change to be completed. The same window that has the option for replacing the startup sound also has a button for restoring back to the default Windows startup sound. The link you can use to download this utility is below: http://winaero.com/download.php?view.1796 When you get to the site find the link Download WinAeroTweaker and press enter key. Use Alt with N to move to the information bar. Tab to the Save split button and down arrow to find the Save as option. Press enter and save the .zip file where you want it. The file you use for the startup sound needs to be a .WAV file. Take care.

This is unbelievable to me that this message needs to be written, but for as often as I am hearing about it I can't imagine how much it is going around. While it is true that a very few members on here have spoken to me directly on the phone, the fact is for the vast majority this is simply not true. The reason I am saying this is because Bob Edenhofer is going around telling people he does not have to listen to their constructive criticism or suggestions because they aren't moderators or have anything to do with running the list. He is also saying that we are buddies ETC where in fact I have never spoken with the man or ever had any contact with him other than over email. Maybe it is wishful thinking on his part I have no idea at all. I didn't start this list to make friends although that in some cases has happened, my goal is to contribute to the benefit of the world in which we all on here have to live. I am so very sorry that the format of this list has to be used for such a purpose but I see no other way around the problem.

Hi, I also have had this happen. Like you, it has been happening since I downloaded Jaws 16. The connection between the two and the remedy for this problem eludes me. The best I can do is to have as few applications running as possible. Then, when it happens, use the Control Alt and delete and then Tab to Shutdown... This will give me the chance to find the Reboot. It's not a great solution, but it's the best I've come up with. At least, it's better than just pushing the Power Off button.

Re: [JAWS-Users] prblem with apple software update
But it installs then gives me an error that there was a problem installing the update. Then I have to hold down the power button for 10 seconds. Then I get this error: Windows did not shut down correctly, would you like to turn it on in safe mode? I hit enter. It started up and I was able to do the update correctly. - Original Message - From: TheHangMan jorgethehang...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Date sent: Sun, 21 Jun 2015 15:41:55 -0400 Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] prblem with apple software update Hi, After you entered on the Apple update. Tab to the install button, Select the updates by arrowing and pressing the spacebar. There could be a couple pending. I believe you have to type in your password for your ID. Then, the install option will appear again. After all that, let iTunes install all. Wait for the finish button and most likely a restart is needed for the updates to save and work correctly.

Re: [JAWS-Users] windows 10
Hello Petras, Windows 10 won't be released until the end of July. If you are a JAWS user, my opinion is that you should not install Windows 10 until there are first-hand reports on it's functionality specifically with JAWS, and in general with accessibility.
