Re: [JAWS-Users] upgrading to VIS 2016
Hi Mario, I believe that the correct version should be 9.0.1.4 for the 2016 version. If you had other anti virus or anti malware packages installed on your computer, Vipre would remove them during the installation of it. Some of thesse, like Malware Bytes, can be reinstalled after Vipre is installed, and they will run together without problems, but Vipre will not install itself with another security product installed on your computer, so it is advised to uninstall any of these before attempting to run the Vipre set up. In the Vipre folder in Program Files (X86), there is a Reinstallation application that can be used to do just that if something goes wrong with the software, but I have never had to make use of this because the product has always installed correctly. Were I you, I would "Check for Updates" in the old Vipre version to see if it will offer to install the new v ersion for you. If this does not happen, then I would suggest uninstalling the older version and doing a clean install of the 2016 version. If needed, I will be happy to walk through the set up with you after the software is installed. There really is not that much to it. The biggest thing is setting up the schedules that you want the software to run its scans on. Let me know what you decide to do, then we can take it from there. If you are unprotected right now, then I would enable Windows Defender to get you through until Vipre is installed properly.

Re: [JAWS-Users] making jaws cursor work in thunderbird?
these changes affect FF's or TB's interface to be more accessible, so the version of JAWS or any other screen reader, I don't think, has any baring. so... no, it shouldn't be necessary. once the changes are made, they should persist, even when upgrading FF or TB. but it would be good to check after uninstalling/reinstalling FF or TB for whatever reason. btw, to start the config editor in Firefox, you'd type about:config in the address bar.

I know a couple smart people like Londa and Dave could help me with this small problem. So, I hope I haven’t lost all of that mail. Many Many Thanks. Also, one weird thing that I am still receiving even on the newer computer. When I go to type a address in the to field. Even those I only type in the address once, and it could be because some times I type in the address by the address and other times via the nickname for that pers. But, it doesn’t matter how I do the address in the to field, it still comes up two copies of the address. The first address is fine, but then without a space at the end of the first copy of the first address I get a greater than sign then the second copy of the address then a lesser than sign then a colon. Then I usually have to cut the entire line out of the to box and place it into the cc box or where ever. Go to the greater than sign and space it once so it isn’t near the original copy of the email address that I want and then deleete the greater than and crap out, and then cut the original copy of the email address that I want and place it back into the to field once again, then double check it to make sure there’s no colons or spaces at the end of the address. Then only then can I ship out the letter. Also, To the left of the body of the letter it states that I have a personal business card. I never put it into any of my out going mail. So how can I kill that as well? I thank anyone who can help me out in advance. Now I can read all of that back log of mail from about the last week from being down getting the new window ten computer.

I am not going to say that my experience should be true for everybody, because likes are different for everybody. I am totally blind, and by experience, if I work in a small tablet, for me is very easy to search something on the screen with my fingers if I am not able to find it with the keyboard. It happen some times when the accessibility is not the best in some kind of web pages or programs. Probably for a person using magnification, a large screen is better because their degree of sight is going to be better due to the large screen. Both tablets that I have are 10.8 inches, they are not the smaller tablets in the market. But they are the smaller with good processors. My Microsoft tablet has an i5 processor with 8 Gb of ram, it has just 10.8 inches. It is not the newer tablet in the market now, it is a surface pro 2, around 2 years old, but still the surface pro 3 and surface pro 4 are with i5 processors and 8 gb of ram. So I paid half part of the current price of those Microsoft surface pro 3 or 4, but I have a surface pro 2 with the same hardware. Again, the size for me is important because is easier to find things on the screen, and also is easy to carry a tablet of 10.8 inches than other of 13.6 inches. But I don't want to create discussions about which tablet is better. It is my experience. Only my experience. In my work, I use another tablet dell venue pro 11, it has 10.8 inches, and it has a atom 2.3ghz processor, with only 8gb of ram. It is a tablet very limited if I compare with my personal tablet, but it still is very fast and I am able to work with office 2013, and inside a intranet. My Dell tablet has a keyboard very nice, that is metal as the tablet, and the keyboard and the tablet are attached. When I close the keyboard and the tablet, they looks like a mini laptop, very comfortable and nice. Also the keyboard provide extra battery to the tablet. It looks very professional.

when 2015 came out, it was recommended not to upgrade because of (JAWS) accessibility issues;, I had applied the reg file from Roger Cusson not to get prompted to upgrade, but since I'm convinced it's time to upgrade to 2016: how do I upgrade my vipre internet security 2014 to 2016, do I uninstall 2014 and then install 2015, or can I go directly to 2016? if so, I will need an offline installer for 2016 and directions to make any necessary changes after installation completes, because I think the offline installers need some tweaking, such as enabling protection, etc. btw, I have applied the reg file to get prompted again, but haven't gotten any prompt yet.

I have a question that I hope will not be considered off topic for this list. I would like to purchase some sort of a Windows tablet to use when traveling, and for when I don't want to drag my laptop computer around. I am currently using Jaws 16, but plan to upgrade to Jaws 17 at some point, probably in the next few months. I assume that any windows-based tablet that I might get now will automatically come with Windows 10 installed, which I'm ok with, since I'll eventually need to upgrade my other computers to that operating system at some point. Can anyone give me recommendations and approximate costs of windows tablets that would have sufficient resources to accommodate Jaws, and basic Microsoft software such as Microsoft Office, Outlook e-mail, etc.? At one point, I had considered moving to an IPad, but I am quite comfortable with the Jaws to windows interface, so would prefer to stick with a Windows tablet if at all possible. Thank you!

[JAWS-Users] jaws 17 not speaking headers correctly in outlook 2013 and outlook 2016
Hi, This is a jaws 17 specific issue as I am not facing any problems with jaws 16. In outlook 2013 and 2016, when navigating through the messagelist jaws is far too chatty i.e it reads out the columns so I hear *from* paul, *subject* today's meeting. In jaws 16 I solved this by using jaws + f2 and and adjusted the outlook options as what and not to read out. However, in jaws 17 these outlook options are missing. Any advice? Cheers For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
