Re: [JAWS-Users] WLM it was RE: JAWS and a new computer

2015-11-11 Thread Mike

Hi LeDon,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Honestly, I do not know how to 
make WLM autofill the To field. There very well may  be a setting for this, 
but thus far, I have not run a cross it. Typically, if I want to put the 
receipients address into the To field without having to type them, I will 
shift tab up to the "Select Contacts" button, find the contact in my list, 
and press enter to put that address in my To field. I then scroll up or down 
to find the next contact if I am sending to more than one receipient.

Hello Mike. I was able to get WLM to read as I wanted it to by following
your instructions. The only thing was after finding the view tab, I had to
tab down to, Message list View dropdown". Instead of what you told me to
look for. After pressing the space bar to open it, wow, there was my choice.
I selected it. I didn't have to tab to OK or save to make it take effect. I
want to thank you for your help. Without it I would never have found it.

May I ask you another question? When using outlook when I start a new email
and I type a letter outlook tries to fill in the to box automatically. If
that is not the one that I want then I use the arrow key to hunt for it. How
do you get WLM to automatically fill in the email address in the to field.
Is this clear or have I just flubbed up my description as usual? Thank you
so much for your help. LeDon.

Hi LeDon,

The latest version of Windows Live Mail is 2012. If Jaws is not reading what
is showing on the screen, then I suspect that this is a Jaws problem, not a
WLM problem. Did you change the view of your reading pane as I outlined for
you in an earlier message? If not, then you should check these settings. 1.
Open the View tab on the ribbon tab in WLM 2012. 2. tab down to the item
that reads "Message Line View". 3. Press the space bar to activate this
item. 4. Arrow down to the "One Line View" item and press enter to check
this choice. 5. Tab down to Apply and then around to OK, pressing enter on
both of these. 6. This should change the view so that each email you receive
tells you the sender, the subject, and the time and date that the message
was sent.

Let me know if this works for you or not. If it doesn't, then you should go
ahead and ask Freedom Scientific about the problem.

Sorry, I need to change the subject. When looking at my in box in WLM jaws
speaks only the subject of the emails in the in box. I would like for jaws
to tell me who the email is from, the subject, and the date the email was
sent.

My wife tells me that all that information is showing on the monitor. But
Jaws does not speak it. How do I get jaws to speak all of that information
when I am in the inbox?

One more thing, what is the latest revision of windows live mail? Thank you,

If we can fire up narrator, why go to the ease of access and then go

Can't we elimate the middle man and use just the narrator with a new

No LeDon, you are not wrong. Most people use the ALT + F4 command from the 
desktop to shut down or restart their computers, you can also do such things 
as switch users, and simply sign out without shutting down from here. 
Another option would be to use the shutdown option from the start menu. In 
over 30 years of using computers, I do not ever remember using the run 
dialogue box to shut down my computer.

Ever since XP hit the streets the command for shutting down a Windows system
is as easy as opening the run dialog and entering the following command:

Shutdown -s -f -t 00

The 00 is for immediate shutdown. If you want it to turn off in 30 seconds
then just enter 30 instead of 00. The rest should be obvious.

Hi Neil,
Good job, I knew you could do it.
Press Windows key+X, the first item is programs and features.
Press enter.
Works the same way as it did in w-7.
Highlight the version of Jaws that you want to uninstall, press enter.
Follow the prompts, keep shared components and shared settings.
Turn narrator on after Jaws is uninstalled with Windows key+Enter.
Press the windows key, up arrow to power, press enter.
Down arrow to restart, press enter.
After a few minutes, press Windows key+enter, to turn narrator on.
Sign-in, use narrator to go to your download folder where you should
have the latest Jaws 16 or 17 already downloaded.
Press enter on the Jaws file, turn narrator off, with, Windows key+enter.
When Jaws finishes installing,
Redo your shortcut keystroke for Jaws.
Redo the Start up on the log-in screen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not kept, all other
settings for Jaws are kept.
No need to restart after the installation of Jaws is complete.
Good luck...

Re: [JAWS-Users] WLM it was RE: JAWS and a new computer

Hi LeDon,
As long as a contact is saved to your contact list.
Just type four letters of the beginning of their email address into the Too 
field.
Tab and Shift+tab, and WLM will fill the rest of the person's, email in for 
you.

This has been a little bug in WLM, for a long time.
Good luck.

Hi LeDon,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Honestly, I do not know how to
make WLM autofill the To field. There very well may  be a setting for this,
but thus far, I have not run a cross it. Typically, if I want to put the
receipients address into the To field without having to type them, I will
shift tab up to the "Select Contacts" button, find the contact in my list,
and press enter to put that address in my To field. I then scroll up or down

Hello Mike. I was able to get WLM to read as I wanted it to by following
your instructions. The only thing was after finding the view tab, I had to
tab down to, Message list View dropdown". Instead of what you told me to
look for. After pressing the space bar to open it, wow, there was my choice.
I selected it. I didn't have to tab to OK or save to make it take effect. I
want to thank you for your help. Without it I would never have found it.

May I ask you another question? When using outlook when I start a new email
and I type a letter outlook tries to fill in the to box automatically. If
that is not the one that I want then I use the arrow key to hunt for it. How
do you get WLM to automatically fill in the email address in the to field.
Is this clear or have I just flubbed up my description as usual? Thank you

Hi LeDon,

The latest version of Windows Live Mail is 2012. If Jaws is not reading what
is showing on the screen, then I suspect that this is a Jaws problem, not a
WLM problem. Did you change the view of your reading pane as I outlined for
you in an earlier message? If not, then you should check these settings. 1.
Open the View tab on the ribbon tab in WLM 2012. 2. tab down to the item
that reads "Message Line View". 3. Press the space bar to activate this
item. 4. Arrow down to the "One Line View" item and press enter to check
this choice. 5. Tab down to Apply and then around to OK, pressing enter on
both of these. 6. This should change the view so that each email you receive
tells you the sender, the subject, and the time and date that the message
was sent.

Let me know if this works for you or not. If it doesn't, then you should go
ahead and ask Freedom Scientific about the problem.

Yes, you can do it that way.
Just make sure you have the latest Jaws 17 already downloaded to your 
download folder.

Then when your sited friend returns your computer.
Turn on narrator to sign and go to your download folder and press enter on 
your Jaws installation file.

You should be just fine.
Good luck.

Yes, you are correct.
This person wanted to know how to make the shortcuts to their programs

There are usually many different ways in Windows to accomplish the same
thing.
I love the option of choosing what works the best for me.
Good luck in playing around and customizing your computer.

4. Down arrow to, Excel.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Upgrading to Windows 10, Microsoft Accessibility; Says sighted assistance necessary

I have a question.

I updated to Windows 10 and am currently using Jaws 16 and will be 
installing 17.  But, I won't do that until this problem is solved.


I was one of those who gost a cumulative update from Microsoft that 
didn't go through properly.


Every day just four in the afternoon, my PC restarts because Windows is 
still trying to get the update.  I understand that this won't be fixed 
until Microsoft comes up with a fix for this.  Is there a way to push 
the time to say, 2 in the morning?


I need to do something so that my programs that run on my station don't 
get interrupted.  Any help is definitely welcomed and appreciated.

Hi all,
I just wanted you to know that you can up grade to Windows 10 with JAWS
16.0.4350 or JAWS 16.0.4463. You do not have to wait until you receive JAWS
17 to up grade. I up graded with JAWS 16.0.4350 and the experience couldn't
have been better. You can use Narrator to do the last couple of steps and
JAWS will come back talking. When it does, just remember to uninstall JAWS
and Reinstall JAWS even if you upgraded from Windows 8.1. It makes things
work so much better in Win 10 if you do. Take care.

Hello Gang:

I tried to upgrade an older Dell laptop to Windows 10, yesterday, through
the MS Accessibility Help Desk. But, was unsuccessful, because I had so many
Windows 7 updates to download and install. Still having to download some
today.

However, here is my point. While talking to one of the MS helpers, he told
me, "Well, Sir, you know that when we do the download for Windows 10, there
will be a time, when there is no connection with us, and sighted assistance
will be necessary." I replied, "Well, I understand at that point, I can turn
on the narrator and complete it without sighted assistance."

He said, "I don't think that is really the case. You need sighted
assistance."

Well, according to the notes from Jim Flusche, The narrator is totally
useable, after the 10 install. Or did I misunderstand Jim's instructions?

Two final questions:

1. Does FS send out CDs for the JAWS 17, for those of us with a SMA?

2. Would a CD be a good thing to have for starting a new Windows 10
computer, or can that be done via narrator, as well.

Thanks. Have a great Sunday!

Neil

What a long and interesting call with Microsoft support. I was having a problem 
with I.e. so called the accessibility support. After that was corrected I 
mentioned that I could not install windows 10. He was willing to try and help. 
After he made many driver updates and started the update, an error popped up. 
It was something with the processor. He did a lot of looking around and ran a 
utility. There is a flag not set in the processor that needs to be on. This can 
only be changed in the bios. He told me that if he lived next door he could 
make all necessary changes. With a little discussion we agreed that it be best 
just to run win 7 32 bit on this machine and later upgrade the computer.

Hi Lenny,

You want to copy your .JCF, Jaws Configuration File,  files from 1 version 
of Jaws  to the other.  You'll more than likely have several of these 
depending on how many programs you assigned personal settings to.  Try the 
following:
Note: This works with Windows 7 & XP, these are the only 2 systems I have to 
try it with.  You can also type, %appdata%, into the Run dialogue to be put 
into your app data folder.
Press, Windows + R, to open the Run dialogue, type, a single period, *just 
like you would at the end of a sentence*, &
press enter.  This will put you in your name folder in the Users folder.  If 
you type, 2 periods, you will be taken to your Users folder of your 
operating system drive.

1. Press, Windows + R, to open the Run dialogue, type, a single period, 
*just like you would at the end of a sentence*, &
press enter.  This should take you to your name folder in the Users folder
of your operating system drive.
2. Press enter on, APPData, arrow down to, Roaming, & press enter.
3. Press the letter, F, until you land on Freedom Scientific, & press enter.
4. Press the letter, J, & with Jaws highlighted press enter.
5. You will now be in a list of the installed versions of Jaws.  Highlight
the version you want to copy the, .JCF files out of & press enter.
6. Press the spacebar on, Settings, press enter, press the spacebar on, ENU, 
press enter, & you are there.

Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Upgraded to Win 10; Accessibility desk great help; Narrator good in Win 10

2015-11-11 Thread Neil Towery
Hello Gang: 

 I got an old laptop computer upgraded to Win 10, with some great help from
the MS Accessibility desk. I used them, because I had so many updates, 161,
that had not been installed. Not sure why, because I had selected automatic.
Anyway, they spent a very long time with me over the course of two days. 

 I have customized the computer according to Jim Flusche's instructions.
They are spot on!! 

 I, also, wanted to tell folks that my fear of Win 10 was unwarranted. After
it was installed, all my desktop items from Win 10 were on the new desktop.
Nice. I was dreading the thought of having to do that. 

 I may be wrong, but I think the old thing has been "juiced up." Seems
faster and smoother. This is an impression, not a scientific fact. 

 I am very happy that I did it. A re-furbished desktop is next. May not even
need help from the accessibility desk, since I have the excellent
instructions from Jim Flusche. He is a tremendous resource.  

 Have a great week. Neil

Hi all.
I want to tell you all the procedure to set a short cut to open a program that 
is not on the desktop or pinned to the start area. You can create a short cut 
to any program on your computer. Here is what you do. 
First, press the Windows key to open the start area. up arrow once and press 
enter on all apps. Arrow to the program that you want to set the short cut for. 
If it says collapsed, press enter to open it. Now, arrow down to the program 
and press the applications key. Next, arrow down to open file location and 
press enter. Press the applications key. Now, up arrow once and enter on 
properties. Next, tab to the shortcut field and put in a letter. The alt and 
ctrl are automatically added to the short cut. Just tab to okay and press 
enter. Now, you can open that program with alt + ctrl + the letter without that 
program pinned anywhere. If the program is just on your computer, this way to 
create a short cut will work. Take care and I hope you enjoy this.

2015-11-11 Thread anna vimini
I finally found all the updates that I had downloaded yesterday I had to 
go through the list of installed updates one by one .
usually they are listed according to the date but for some reason they 
were mixed up in the list.
so my question is , Is there some way I can arrange the windows updates 
in the installed updates so they are listed according to the date, so 
the most resent date is at the top of the list?

thanks in advance

[JAWS-Users] bookmarks in firefox

2015-11-11 Thread Kevin
for those that are confused about how to use bookmarks with firefox as I was.  
I found out how to use them.  I actually remembered and jotted down the steps.

using bookmarks in firefox

ctrl+i brings up the bookmark toolbar
press tab once to preview
arrow down to bookmark menu
arrow right to recently bookmarked
arrow down saved webpages are there
choose one of the saved webpages press enter and you will be transfered to that 
page
the bookmark toolbar automatically goes out of focus  after entering on a saved 
bookmark

there are more headings in the bookmark menu and each can be opened by 
selecting the heading and arrowing right.  but what I did was just delete all 
but recently bookmarked.

Email is golden!!!

Re: [JAWS-Users] WLM it was RE: JAWS and a new computer

2015-11-11 Thread Sharon Gosling
I have entered nicknames for most of the contacts I use most often and I 
just have to type the nicknames into the TO field separated by commas and 
WLM puts in the actual email address. I usually have to tab and shift tab to 
have the addresses read out.
I find it much easier to remember the nicknames than the beginning of the 
actual email addresses.

Hi LeDon,
As long as a contact is saved to your contact list.
Just type four letters of the beginning of their email address into the Too
field.
Tab and Shift+tab, and WLM will fill the rest of the person's, email in for
you.
This has been a little bug in WLM, for a long time.
Good luck.

Hi LeDon,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Honestly, I do not know how to
make WLM autofill the To field. There very well may  be a setting for this,
but thus far, I have not run a cross it. Typically, if I want to put the
receipients address into the To field without having to type them, I will
shift tab up to the "Select Contacts" button, find the contact in my list,
and press enter to put that address in my To field. I then scroll up or down
to find the next contact if I am sending to more than one receipient.

Hello Mike. I was able to get WLM to read as I wanted it to by following
your instructions. The only thing was after finding the view tab, I had to
tab down to, Message list View dropdown". Instead of what you told me to
look for. After pressing the space bar to open it, wow, there was my choice.
I selected it. I didn't have to tab to OK or save to make it take effect. I
want to thank you for your help. Without it I would never have found it.

May I ask you another question? When using outlook when I start a new email
and I type a letter outlook tries to fill in the to box automatically. If
that is not the one that I want then I use the arrow key to hunt for it. How
do you get WLM to automatically fill in the email address in the to field.
Is this clear or have I just flubbed up my description as usual? Thank you
so much for your help. LeDon.

Hi LeDon,

The latest version of Windows Live Mail is 2012. If Jaws is not reading what
is showing on the screen, then I suspect that this is a Jaws problem, not a
WLM problem. Did you change the view of your reading pane as I outlined for
you in an earlier message? If not, then you should check these settings. 1.
Open the View tab on the ribbon tab in WLM 2012. 2. tab down to the item
that reads "Message Line View". 3. Press the space bar to activate this
item. 4. Arrow down to the "One Line View" item and press enter to check
this choice. 5. Tab down to Apply and then around to OK, pressing enter on
both of these. 6. This should change the view so that each email you receive
tells you the sender, the subject, and the time and date that the message
was sent.

Let me know if this works for you or not. If it doesn't, then you should go
ahead and ask Freedom Scientific about the problem.

Hi Lenny,

You want to copy your .JCF, Jaws Configuration File,  files from 1 version
of Jaws  to the other.  You'll more than likely have several of these
depending on how many programs you assigned personal settings to.  Try the
following:
Note: This works with Windows 7 & XP, these are the only 2 systems I have to
try it with.  You can also type, %appdata%, into the Run dialogue to be put
into your app data folder.
Press, Windows + R, to open the Run dialogue, type, a single period, *just
like you would at the end of a sentence*, &
press enter.  This will put you in your name folder in the Users folder.  If
you type, 2 periods, you will be taken to your Users folder of your
operating system drive.

1. Press, Windows + R, to open the Run dialogue, type, a single period,
*just like you would at the end of a sentence*, &
press enter.  This should take you to your name folder in the Users folder
of your operating system drive.
2. Press enter on, APPData, arrow down to, Roaming, & press enter.
3. Press the letter, F, until you land on Freedom Scientific, & press enter.
4. Press the letter, J, & with Jaws highlighted press enter.
5. You will now be in a list of the installed versions of Jaws.  Highlight
the version you want to copy the, .JCF files out of & press enter.
6. Press the spacebar on, Settings, press enter, press the spacebar on, ENU,
press enter, & you are there.

Take care.

So, here is how you do it in w-10.

1. Press the Windows key.
2. Up arrow to, all Apps, press enter.
3. Down arrow to, for example, Microsoft folder collapsed, press enter to
expand.
4. Down arrow to, Excel.
5. Press the application key.
6. Go down to, Open file location, press enter.
7. Press the application key.
8. Up arrow to properties, press enter.
9. Tab one time to, Shortcut keystroke edit.
10. Type your letter, your shortcut will be, ALT+Control+your letter to open
the program.
I hope this helps...

Hi Jim,

They might like to know that as well as opening the properties to assign a
shortcut key, they can also go to the Send To item in the Context menu to
create a short cut on their desktop. This way, all can have two   options
for starting their applications.

Hi I also use my book marks in Firefox and I do it a different way.

Open Firefox then hit alt and the letter B and it will open them. I then hit
first letter for the web sight. If there are two or more that start with
that letter I will 
keep hitting the letter until I hear the sight I want and hit entre and on
the page I want. Louise and princess Kiara

Subject: [JAWS-Users] bookmarks in firefox

for those that are confused about how to use bookmarks with firefox as I
was.  I found out how to use them.  I actually remembered and jotted down
the steps.

using bookmarks in firefox

ctrl+i brings up the bookmark toolbar
press tab once to preview
arrow down to bookmark menu
arrow right to recently bookmarked
arrow down saved webpages are there
choose one of the saved webpages press enter and you will be transfered to
that page the bookmark toolbar automatically goes out of focus  after
entering on a saved bookmark

there are more headings in the bookmark menu and each can be opened by
selecting the heading and arrowing right.  but what I did was just delete
all but recently bookmarked.

Email is golden!!!

I don't know what to say to that, this comment of yours bothers me.
I cut out all my information at the bottom of my email except for my poem
and one line about the buckeyes.
I can not cut out any lines of the poem, it would not make since.LOL
What would you have me do, have no signature line for your list emails.
If so, I have never read about you criticizing anyone else for their
signature lines on this list.
Lord knows, their have been some long ones, a lot longer than mine...
So, I ask you, what's up!.



Consider the snow flakes

Consider the snow flakes, as they fall, bright and beautiful one and all.
Watch the snowflakes as they fall, all are different, large and small
Look at the snowflakes as they fall, they are One of God's treasures,
created for all.
Consider Him, as the blizzard blows, let Him warm your heart, and give Him
your soul.
Take a walk with Him daily in the snow, pray and meditate on Him whenever
you go.
Remember, God loves you and I, trust in His salvation before you die.

Hi Mike,
Yes, you are correct.
This person wanted to know how to make the shortcuts to their programs
without putting them on the Desktop.
There are usually many different ways in Windows to accomplish the same
thing.
I love the option of choosing what works the best for me.
Good luck in playing around and customizing your computer.
