Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and word 2013 sluggish problems

[Mike B]

Hi Al,

Below is a note I've saved that might help.  This helped me in Word 2010:

From: Jean Menzies via Jfw
Just thought I'd share this for those who want to try it.

The symptom. I've often found sluggish performance in Word when searching, 
or when opening a second document. Jaws seems to either not be able to read 
a screen without refreshing, or, in searching, it would sometimes take two 
tries to get to the results. Just plain sluggish.

In going through settings, I came across an option to "Disable Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration". I checked that and things seem to be much more 
responsive now. I'll see how the day goes. But if anyone wants to do this, 
go into Options, Advanced, and the item is in there.  If you use the, Alt + 
G keystroke, you'll get to it much quicker.  From what I read on Google, if 
you change it in one MS program, it should affect all of them. Hey, I don't 
need graphics anyway. haha.
Hope this works.
Jean
Note From Mike B.: My settings wouldn't stick until I checked the, prompt to 
update style, checkbox.  To get to this checkbox the keystroke is, Alt + Y.

Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

Microsoft Office 2013 is great software for Windows 8 and I am guessing that 
quite a few of you may be using it on your system. This productivity suite
contains many technologies in-built inside it and sometimes due to them an 
average computer has to suffer. If your facing this issues like crashing of
Office components or not running properly and freezing every now and then or 
if they only works in Safe Mode of Office, then technology named Hardware
Graphics Acceleration may be the culprit behind this.

 Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

I found that many users having issues with working of Office 2013 on your 
system are often advised to disable hardware graphics acceleration. Almost 
in
all of the cases, disabling the hardware acceleration for graphics does the 
trick and solves issues for many. In this article, I'll show you how to 
disable
hardware acceleration of graphics using the UI and of course, using my 
favorite Registry Editor.

Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

Using UI

1. Open any Office 2013 component for example Word, and create a blank 
document, click FILE.

How To Disable Hardware Acceleration In Office 2013 Turn off Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

2. Next, click Options in the following screen:

How To Disable Hardware Acceleration In Office 2013 1 Turn off Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

3. Moving on, in the below shown window, select Advanced in the left pane. 
Then in the right pane, scroll down and look Disable hardware graphics 
acceleration
under the section Display. Check this option and click OK.

How To Disable Hardware Acceleration In Office 2013 3 Turn off Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

You may now close Office (Word) 2013 and reboot the machine. After 
restarting the system, you'll find the issues you were facing in Office is 
resolved now.

Using Registry Editor

1. Press Windows Key + R combination, type put regedit in Run dialog box and 
hit Enter to open the Registry Editor.

 Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

2. In the left pane, navigate here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common

How To Disable Hardware Acceleration In Office 2013 4 Turn off Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

3. Firstly create a subkey to Common by right click over it and select 
New -> Key. Name this subkey as Graphics. In the right pane of Graphics 
subkey, create
a new DWORD by right click on blank space and select New -> DWORD Value. 
Name the newly created DWORD as DisableHardwareAcceleration and double click 
on
it to get this:

How To Disable Hardware Acceleration In Office 2013 5 Turn off Hardware

4. In the above shown box, change the Value data from 0 to 1. Click OK. 
Close the Registry Editor and reboot the machine to make changes effective.

Hello list,

 

Well I just got off the phone with   a senior Jaws
escalation specialist. He called to get additional
information on the Jaws crashing and/or pausing issues some
of us are having with Jaws 16 and/or 17 and Windows 7 and/or
10. I know we have had several folks speaking of some or all
of the above. Unfortunately only myself and one other person
has reported this to Freedom Scientific as far as he knows
of.

The purpose of this post is to urge anyone having this issue
(all or part) to contact Freedom Scientific by phone or
email to report this issue. This will generate a case number
and the team can then try to get at some similarities to
begin to debug the issue. Again, and this has been said many
times, if you don't report issues to freedom scientific and
only do so on the list, remedies will not be made. So, you
can let me know on list or off if you report. 

 

Best,

Al

The purpose of the fn key is to change the command that you are using with the 
f keys across the top. With a laptop your volume controls and your play and 
stop and next track and so on are used there also. No you can't change the fn

I am running Jaws 17.0.1214 on a 64-bit 3.2MHZ windows 7 ultimate system
with 12 GB of ram.

I am also running Word 2013.

When I am typing for a period of time in word, suddenly without warning,
Jaws  will stop speaking. If I wait for  bout ten seconds, , jaws will say
the last key pressed. If I press another key, I have to wait another 10
seconds or so before that key is echoed.

Eventually all the keys pressed will show up in my document.

I am just wondering if this might be a jaws problem, or if there might be a
setting within word that might have to be changed, possibly something to do
with recovery?



Also, if I attempt to save a large document first as a doc, and then as a
text file, Jaws will crash and sometimes restart. Even after it restarts,
sometimes Jaws will not respond and I must use narrator to finish saving my
text file within word.

This seems to happen with Jaws 17 and 16.

Any clues would be great fully appreciated.



Phil

Re: [JAWS-Users] WIN 10 upgrade advice from our computer people

[Steve]

Merv,

Don't know where you come up with your info here...
Unless you are using really intensive video or graphics editing programs, 16GB 
memory is overkill.  I don't see any reason why one would need that kind of 
memory with Win 10 which is quite an efficient operating system.

Second, your reference to Dell and HP techs recommending people not upgrade to 
Win 10?  There was a major update to Win 10 a couple weeks ago, so even if that 
were valid after it was rolled out at the end of July, I rather doubt that is 
applicable nowadays.
In looking at the article that seems to have precipitated this
http://www.laptopmag.com/articles/support-reps-diss-windows-10
it woould appear that many of them aren't knowledgeable about some of the 
Windows 10 support features.

Much of the advice PC Phoneline support techs give is not correct or current. 
Examples are in that article.

Also in my experience, there may be some driver issues; but I have yet to run 
across anything that would work in Windows 8 and not in Windows 10.

break what is not already broken. I have very successfully helped install
Windows 10 as both upgrades and as clean installs on new machines and while
it is a good Operating Machine there is issues of accessibility that both
Microsoft and all the major screen readers are continuing to work out. That
is not a negative on any company it is a fact based on a very deep
understanding of computers as an instructor, programmer, and writer of
tutorials since  1984.
Never mind the fact that many people are upgrading only to find that they
have printers, scanners, external hard drives, and other peripherals that
will no longer be supported under Windows 10. Not everyone learns at the
same level. And not everyone can afford to replace outdated hardware just to
scan their electric bill after they get a nasty surprise from an upgrade.
I have my machines working just great on Windows 10 and for the record I
used Windows 10 the Missing Manual via bookshare. I even got my windows 7
sound scheme working on a machine I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10
with a little bit of geeking and tweaking.
And I highly recommend that if you do not need to upgrade this minute, wait
a few months to upgrade to Windows 10. Unless you are buying a new machine.
Then by all means get a Windows 10 machine with at least 16 GB of ram and
run Jaws 17 and it will rock your world.

The symptom. I've often found sluggish performance in Word when searching, 
or when opening a second document. Jaws seems to either not be able to read 
a screen without refreshing, or, in searching, it would sometimes take two 
tries to get to the results. Just plain sluggish.

In going through settings, I came across an option to "Disable Hardware 
Graphics Acceleration". I checked that and things seem to be much more 
responsive now. I'll see how the day goes. But if anyone wants to do this, 
go into Options, Advanced, and the item is in there.  If you use the, Alt + 
G keystroke, you'll get to it much quicker.  From what I read on Google, if 
you change it in one MS program, it should affect all of them. Hey, I don't 
need graphics anyway. haha.
Hope this works.
Jean
Note From Mike B.: My settings wouldn't stick until I checked the, prompt to

update style, checkbox.  To get to this checkbox the keystroke is, Alt + Y.

Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

Microsoft Office 2013 is great software for Windows 8 and I am guessing that

quite a few of you may be using it on your system. This productivity suite
contains many technologies in-built inside it and sometimes due to them an 
average computer has to suffer. If your facing this issues like crashing of
Office components or not running properly and freezing every now and then or

if they only works in Safe Mode of Office, then technology named Hardware
Graphics Acceleration may be the culprit behind this.

 Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

I found that many users having issues with working of Office 2013 on your 
system are often advised to disable hardware graphics acceleration. Almost 
in
all of the cases, disabling the hardware acceleration for graphics does the 
trick and solves issues for many. In this article, I'll show you how to 
disable
hardware acceleration of graphics using the UI and of course, using my 
favorite Registry Editor.

Turn off Hardware Graphics Acceleration in Office 2013

Using UI

1. Open any Office 2013 component for example Word, and create a blank 
document, click FILE.

under the section Display. Check this option and click OK.

restarting the system, you'll find the issues you were facing in Office is 
resolved now.

hit Enter to open the Registry Editor.

subkey, create
a new DWORD by right click on blank space and select New -> DWORD Value. 
Name the newly created DWORD as DisableHardwareAcceleration and double click

on
it to get this:

Hi Kurt.

Download the Windows Live Essensials package from
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/download-windows-essentials and
install it.
If there is program's in the package that you don't want to install, then
uncheck the box'es before pressing the Install button.

Open Windows Live Mail, and follow the guid to set up your account, by
typing your Name, your email address, and selecting the gmail.
Than adwise the user name and password, and you should be done.

Good luck.

[JAWS-Users] jaws and word 2013 sluggish problems

[Philip Hall]

I am running Jaws 17.0.1214 on a 64-bit 3.2MHZ windows 7 ultimate system
with 12 GB of ram.

I am also running Word 2013.

When I am typing for a period of time in word, suddenly without warning,
Jaws  will stop speaking. If I wait for  bout ten seconds, , jaws will say
the last key pressed. If I press another key, I have to wait another 10
seconds or so before that key is echoed.

Eventually all the keys pressed will show up in my document.

I am just wondering if this might be a jaws problem, or if there might be a
setting within word that might have to be changed, possibly something to do
with recovery?

 

Also, if I attempt to save a large document first as a doc, and then as a
text file, Jaws will crash and sometimes restart. Even after it restarts,
sometimes Jaws will not respond and I must use narrator to finish saving my
text file within word.

This seems to happen with Jaws 17 and 16.

Any clues would be great fully appreciated.

Phillip,

Sounds to me like part of the pause issue with jaws some of
us are experiencing. I would suggest submitting a report to
Freedom Scientific at:
supp...@freedomscientific.com
They are closed today or you could call, but if you prefer
to talk by phone you could call Monday. 
Personally, I like the email route for paper and
documentation trail as the issue gets kicked up the ladder.
They do want to hear about these issue to adequately fix.

open your start menu by pressing win key arrow to all apps and open it arrow

windows live mail you need to reinstall here's a link for it
http://www.filehippo.com/download_windows_live_mail/rss/
when you install it  make sure to only check windows live mail because I
think microsoft retired all the other apps when you first open wlm it'll ask
you for an email type your gmail address enter type your pass check remember
pass enter don't check manually configure email server enter on gmail email
help wait until gmail configures gmail on wlm to get wlm onto windows 10

Hi all,

I have had Win 10 on a desktop now for almost 2 months. I have tried every
way possible that I can think of to get Live mail on it with my  g mail
account attached to it. This computer was freshly cleaned out before 10 and
I am trying to get it all put together like my laptop so that I can start
learning 10 but can't get mail on it.

If someone could give directions before I throw this thing out the window it
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Kurt

It is sometime in 2020.

Right now, you can still buy systems with Windows 7 Pro, but this option is the 
only thing available for new systems with Windows 7 now.  That ends in October 
of 2016.  But, support goes until January 14, 2020 officially.

Joanne, I have run into the same problems with web sites too especially
banking.  I have windows 10 and when that does happen to me, I have to
switch to narrator and then switch back to jaws.  It is a pain in the butt.
However, I can do it and hopefully soon, this will be able to be rectified.

I try routing cursors, turning off virtual cursor, left clicking, just about
everything I can think of but the keystroke won't work to get me to the next

Due to the configuration of some newer websites with maybe too many

[JAWS-Users] A Letter for Carolyn.

[Ron Kolesar]

   Hi Carolyn from Ron Kolesar and current Leader Dog Boz.
What I'd like to see in jaws especially for reading money is this.
Currently what is nice if you have a dollar amount it will read it as
example.
$55.
Example two.
If you also have something like
$3.25
It only reads as three point two five.
Instead of reading $23.25.
Example threee
I also would like to see the following.
For just something smaller than a full dollar.
We currently have to use the following format.
$0.25
And it read zero point two five.
I'd like to see twienty-five cents.
Wouldn't you?
It is something to think about.

If your asking about the person who helped me it did it for free.
He is the local sight center's computer person and I got lucky that he was 
workin glast Tuesday when I called all over for help.

He is a cool guy and he told us to call him anytime for free help.
So hope that answers your question.
Or where you asking about the PC deal.
That was at Office max and the item number again is 722401 for $599.

Hi to all.
Or should I say good morning.
I ust couldn't sleep, so while trying to find time to get everything set up 
for the new pc, I thought that I'd also try to keep up with all of my mail 
as well. SMILES.

I think Ihave about fifteenmailboxes now. SMILES.
I just recently pick up a HPNT win10 pc.
It has a a 10 processor.
But we were told that the A 10 processer is equal to a intel 7 processor.
So it has some kick up and go der the hud. SMILES.
It has a two trick hd in it.
I would looking for a little larger hd. Maybe around a three or a five trig 
hd.
But my dad spotted this awsome deal and he was the one that picked it up for 
me.

My brother was with him and he got himself a new win 10 laptop.
I don't know what all the stats are on the laptop.
I have ten USB ports and I have twelve gigs of memory.
My dad told me that he can uninstall my older vid card from my older unit.
Because I use Microsoft flight simulator and you need a high end vid card to 
use that simulator.
But I will see if the vid card that came with the unit will give me any 
problems first.

One thing I have to tell everyone about.
The USB wireless keyboard that comes with the unit.
Sell it to the first sucker that comes across your path. SMILES.
Even the It guy who came and inported my older mailboxes and mail for me 
couldn't belive this stupid keyboard.

For example.
The insert key was on the top roll and you had to count seven over from 
right to left tofind it.
There was now spacing like there normally is in a computer or even from 
those olden days of large print a typewriter keyboard has keys spaces apart 
and grouped together.

Please for give me for the A915Felling errors.
I do have two major medical issues, and it is now starting to effect my 
hands and fingers while I trying to type.
The i.d.number once again is 722401 and it was the computer itself ws on 
sell for $599.

So a awsome deal.
Pluse, I got a nice email letter from the saleman and also a second letter 
from the team for with the extra $120 or in that neighborhood on the extra 
insurance.

So, that is what is up from here.
I almost forgot.
The I.T tech who did my mail for me is a new employee at our local sight 
center and he keeps their pc's running for them and for others as well.
HE only works on Thursdays, and since this thursday is thanks giving he 
worked yesterday and I got lucky to catch him at work.
Plus he only lives down the street from us and said to call him for any 
problems.
But he's running win 10 and he's only runnning defender that comes with win 
10.
HE's saying that he would pick up vipre or any other program and don't know 
what one would with defender running.

So that was his two cents when I had asked him about it.
Because the first to rules on computers is safety and to back up back up 
back up. SMILES.

So that's my adventure since about the 18 or 19th of November.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS Pronunciation of Monetary Amounts


On my old XP computer running JAWS 9, monetary amounts were announced
correctly.  For instance $86.75 was announced by JAWS as “Eighty six dollars
and seventy five cents”.  But on my refurbed Windows 7 machine running JAWS
15, this amount is announced as “Dollar eighty six point seven five”.  How
can I adjust JAWS 15 to announce monetary amounts in the latter format
rather than as a string of characters?  I could not find anysettings in the
Settings Center to accomplish this.  Thanks.

On some websites I run across buttons I can't click on with space or enter.
I try routing cursors, turning off virtual cursor, left clicking, just about
everything I can think of but the keystroke won't work to get me to the next
page.  I see it a lot on banking sites and on submit or continue buttons.
Due to the configuration of some newer websites with maybe too many
graphics--just making a guess--is there just no way to be able to use
buttons and therefore the inability to complete tasks on these sites without
sighted help?  I truly hope there's an answer and that it's not impossible
to use these sites independently.

Thanks.

Hi Carolyn from Ron Kolesar and current Leader Dog Boz.
What I'd like to see in jaws especially for reading money is this.
Currently what is nice if you have a dollar amount it will read it as
example.
$55.
Example two.
If you also have something like
$3.25
It only reads as three point two five.
Instead of reading $23.25.
Example threee
I also would like to see the following.
For just something smaller than a full dollar.
We currently have to use the following format.
$0.25
And it read zero point two five.
I'd like to see twienty-five cents.
Wouldn't you?
It is something to think about.

Text settings is where to go to gew that. If you have problem, write again.
I'll go through it, then tell you, but I know it is in Text Settings, which
probably is in Configuration Manager. Otherwise, you might go into JAWS and
search for Text Settings. I don't know why, for the life of me, that speak
dollar after digits is not a default. I guess it makes sense to somebody,
especially, since the thing has that capability. I could understand if they
had not developed that yet, but for ten years, I've had to set one, if I get
a new update or something that makes me lose settings.

No you sshould be able to upgrade without contacting fs. however 
regarding your outlook contacts I can't help you as I've never upgraded 
to windows10. However it ought to work, after all I would have thought 
that Microsoft would want Outlook to continue to work after the upgrade.

If you have any of the older playlists- you can add the songs to a new

That's the only way I'm getting by right now.
