IMO, the only reliable way to deal with web cam security is to place a 
piece of electricians (plastic) tape across the camera.

Re: [JAWS-Users] webcam

Good question. Likely there will be a dialog on your screen telling you that 
it is. Otherwise like someone suggested, put a post-it note over the lens.

Re: [JAWS-Users] issue with Internet explorer11 on Windows10 when wanting to add a website to a folder other than favorites JAWS 17.0.1806

[Pinky]

Hi "Shai,
I went into the add favorites box and tab to folders. The new Jaws update
does not announce when you enter the create in folder combo  box.  If you
arrow down then it will announce the folder name. If you tab away and tab
back to the combo box it will not announce unless you arrow   down or up
again. Look to me like this is a Jaws issue.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] issue with Internet explorer11 on Windows10 when
wanting to add a website to a folder other than favorites JAWS 17.0.1806

Hello,
When trying to add a website to a folder other than favorites in the
latest JAWS17 update with Windows10 and Internet Explorer11,   I
notice that JAWS does not announce folder name combo box when tabbing across
the add to favorites area.
To duplicate this issue try the following: when on a web page press alt a to
add to favorites and press enter. Next, tab across. The first item that you
should land on is a combo box with a list of folders which JAWS does not
seem to announce. The user however, can arrow down this combo box and add
the website to the chosen folder.  Is anybody else encountering this issue?
All other items in that area such as the new folder button ok and cancel
seem to announce normally.
Thank you in advance for any responses

[JAWS-Users] Is the following a JAWS 17 issue or a windows 10 issue?

[Ron Kolesar]

Hi to all. 
Anyone have the following problem when down loading a program or what ever, or 
transvering a folder or file from one drive or folder to another or what ever? 
I am seeing the following. 
You would start the transfer and or down load and you would see the following 
message 
Get less details checked. 
So you would tap your spacebar to uncheck that and the get more details would 
pop up which is what you want but it tells you that the get more details is’' 
not actually checked. 
So to get the get more details to be checked to get more details you tap your 
spacebar. 
But when you do tap your spacebar thinking that you’ll check the get more 
details the get less details pops up and it states that it is checked once 
again. 
So which is giving you the accurate info. 
Are you getting the more details when you have the less details checked or are 
you getting the more details when the get more details is checked like it 
should be checked? 
See my issue that I’m having? 
Many Many thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Changing fonts in an existing documents

[Adrian Spratt]

Hi. Before pressing shift-control-f, or control-d (both do the same thing), you 
need to select the text whose font you want to change. It's easiest when you 
wish to do this for the entire document: control-a. Otherwise, use the usual 
selection suspects, such as shift-control-paragraph for a paragraph, etc. 

Once text is selected, press either shift-control-f or control-d to enter the 
font dialog. 

You land right away on a list of fonts. This list is navigable by first letter. 
Press the first letter or two of the desired font to go right to or close to 
the one you want. 

If all you want to do is change the font, just press enter here to exit the 
document and save your change.

If you also want to change font size, keep focus at the desire font, then tab 
twice. Once again you land in a list. Arrow down to the size you want. 

Here again, if you want only to save the font and size changes, press enter to 
exit the dialog and save your changes.

Color is a little more complicated, so please post again if you also want to 
make that change. Line spacing is done in a different dialog, which can also be 
explained.

Hi Everyone,

 

I am using Windows 7, Word 2010, and JAWS 13, on a laptop.  I have an
existing five page document in Word that I would like to change it to a
different font style♣.  I have placed the cursor at the beginning of the

[Mike B]

Hi Al,

Okay this is what I did to change the font in only the current open 
document:
1. First make a copy of the document before you make any changes in case 
something screws up.  This way you will still have your default / original 
document.
2. Open the document, & select all text with the, Control + A, keystroke.
3. Press, Control, Shift, + F, for the font dialogue, & tab through making 
your font style & size settings changes.
4. Tab to the, Okay button, & press enter.  Do not choose the, Default 
button.
5. Press, Alt + F4, to close the document, & you will get a dialogue asking 
if you want to save the changes, spacebar the, Yes, button.  You have now 
changed the font style & size for this particular document only.
HTH
Take care.

Hi Al. This is Helga. Howa reyou? For fonts, try to do controld D, adn that 
will take you to the fonts and so n. Just use the arrows keys to find the font 
you want and letter navigation. For instance, if you want Times New Roman, prss 
t and go down an dyou iwll find it,and then for size of th efont just tab and 
for tab an d follow the prompts and just do ok button and selcect it. You are 
done! For double spacing that is different steps! You can go top o ffile and 
slect the entire document and then do the font shortcut that I told you above. 
Hope this helps you! I look forward in hearing from you soon! :)

then press enter and on the page that comes up enter on releases

[JAWS-Users] Searching in an Excel

[Pinky]

Hi Group,

I have a group name list in an Excel spread sheet. I want to search for a
name in the group list. I have used the keystroke ctrl+f for the find and
replace box. I then put a name in and press find. It finds the name I want.
But say I want to search again with the same name is there a keystroke I can
hit to make it search for the next name again. I hit the F3 and that did not
do anything. Does anyone have any ideas.

David,

Are you actually running JAWS from the dongle, or are you only authorizing 
JAWS from it?  At work we only authorize from the dongle, and I'm trying to 
anticipate if we will have trouble as this week we are updating our users 
from JAWS16 to JAWS17.

A strange but certainly inconvenient problem with this update is that it 
won't authorize on either of my systems running a hardware dongle. I have a 
lap top with an ILM key on it and it is not having any problems at all, but 
my towers both a 32 and 64 bit systems lost their license. I removed the 
update and put the version from last month back on and the dongle works 
again on the 64 bit. After lunch I'll take a crack at the 32 bit which my 
wife uses. I just told her over the phone that I plan on getting her system 
back on its' feet so to speak.

Has anybody else encountered this issue? Possibly an email to tech support 
is in order, not sure right now exactly what course of action to embark.

Enhancements in JAWS 17.0.1806 (April 2016)

The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 17 March 2016 
release and the April 2016 update.

To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page.

JAWS
•Added an "Explore Utilities Folder" item to the Utilities menu located in 
the JAWS window. In Windows 10, this enables you to quickly open the folder 
where you can explore various JAWS settings folders, launch the Synthesizer 
and Braille Manager to add or remove speech synthesizers or braille 
displays, remove product activation, and more. Previously, you would have to 
search for "utilities" in the Start menu to locate this folder. This menu 
item is also available in Windows 7.
•In Windows 10, resolved an issue where JAWS would unexpectedly become 
unresponsive for several seconds when switching between apps.
•Addressed a reported issue where text in the Virtual Viewer could not be 
copied with MAGic running.
•Resolved a customer reported issue encountered on certain computers where 
the HJPad spell checker was not loading the dictionary.
•In response to requests from customers who are creating domain specific 
scripts, added a new function, GetElementXML, which returns the XML for the 
element at the Virtual Cursor.
•When using the Windows touch keyboard, resolved an issue encountered with 
some international versions of Windows where Touch Typing was not working as 
expected. With Touch Typing, a key is typed when the finger is lifted from 
any of the keyboard buttons. In addition, if a triple tap is performed on a 
keyboard button, the panel of alternative characters now opens as expected.

Braille
•In response to customer feedback, if you type "girlfriend", "boyfriend", 
"girlfriends", and "boyfriends" using contracted braille, these are now 
properly translated.
•Resolved an issue where JAWS would sometimes not detect a Focus Blue 
braille display after bringing the computer out of hibernation.
•Resolved a customer reported issue where the contents of the Windows Secure 
Desktop or the Windows Lock screen were not being shown in braille.
•Resolved an issue where the Placement of Status Cells option in the Startup 
Wizard would become unavailable if it was changed to None. This option 
should only be unavailable if a braille display that does not offer status 
cells is connected.

Microsoft Outlook
•Addressed a reported issue where the checked or unchecked status of shared 
calendars was not being shown in braille.
•When pressing INSERT+H from a message list, resolved an issue where Outlook 
specific hot keys were not being displayed.

Microsoft Word
•If the data in a table cell contains line breaks, JAWS now shows the first

[JAWS-Users] Using and sharing your OneDrive

[Jim]

Good morning Jaws Users group,
Many of my group members wanted to know how to use OneDrive.
I decided to share these notes with you.
Below is the way I do it in w-10 with Jaws.
How to set up and use the OneDrive back up for yourself and how to share a 
folder with others.
Open your personal folder link under the start area if you have it set up that 
way, go down to OneDrive, press enter.
Or, type OneDrive into the search edit box, press enter on OneDrive desktop app.
Or, if OneDrive is on your Taskbar, press enter on it there, or press  its 
shortcut keystroke windows key+the number of its order on the Taskbar.
Or, press the windows key, up arrow to, All apps, press enter.
Down arrow to the A's, tab one time, down arrow to the O, press enter twice, 
you will be in the programs and apps starting with O, press enter on OneDrive.
Now you will be in a list of default OneDrive folders, that you can use, or you 
can create your own folders in OneDrive.
In this example, I will create my own folder under the main default folder list 
of OneDrive.
While you are in the list of default folders under the main OneDrive folder 
list.
1. Press Control+shift+N, for new folder.
2. In this example, I will type the name, "Jaws users", then press enter to 
create this new folder.
3. Copy the files or folders you wish to back-up, and paste them into this new 
Jaws Users folder.
Do the same thing if you wish to share this folder with others by a OneDrive 
link , copy and paste any files into this new folder.
Now we need to sink our OneDrive folders if you wish too, you do not have to 
sink your OneDrive folders if you do not want too.
4. Highlight the new folder, in my case, Jaws users, do not press enter.
5. Press the applications key, down arrow to, Choose OneDrive folders to sink, 
press enter.
6. Now, you can choose a check-box to sink all folders.
Or, uncheck this, tab to the list view of folders, only check the folders you 
wish to sink to your computer by pressing the Spacebar.
After checking all the folders you wish to sink, tab to OK, press enter.
Now, How to share this new OneDrive folder and its contents, with others 
through a OneDrive link.
7. Now, highlight your new folder, in my case, Jaws users, do not press enter.
8. Press the Applications key, go down to, Share a OneDrive link, press enter.
By pressing Enter, This automatically pastes, a OneDrive link to this folder, 
that you can share with others, into the clipboard.
9. Now, open an email to the person you wish to give access to this OneDrive 
folder and all its content, in my case the Jaws users list.
10. Paste the OneDrive link into the email, this will give that person a link 
to access the folder you are sharing with them.
What does it mean to sink your OneDrive folders?
When you choose to sink your OneDrive folders on your computer.
You have a copy of these files online, on your OneDrive page.
You also place a copy of these files in your OneDrive folder.
Now, the advantage of doing it this way is:
When you are inside the OneDrive folder and inside a text file in one of your 
shared folders, for example.
Whatever changes you make to that text document, are automatically changed in 
the text document stored in OneDrive.
Can I use the default folders of OneDrive, to place my audio or text files into 
for back up, or for sharing with others?
Yes, you can use them the same way, as I explained above.
OneDrive is a cool and easy way, to share large audio or text files with others.
Microsoft gives each person a free 15 GB's of storage space on OneDrive.
I am currently sharing three OneDrive links to three different folders on my 
OneDrive on my computer, with no issues.
If any of you still have questions about using OneDrive, please let me know.
Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching 
His goal.
Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good 
health.
Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually 
balanced with wealth.
Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where 
God sits.
Jim

the easiest way. With express burn I could probably make a cd and have it

Subject: [JAWS-Users] equalizing volume for mp3 files


I have quite a few mp3 files and noticed that they do not all play at the
same volume. I looked around gold wave but not sure if It can make all of
them at the same level. I also  have express burn. I am wondering what is
the easiest way. With express burn I could probably make a cd and have it
normalize the tracks. I would then have to extract and copy them to a thumb
drive. Probably would have to convert them back to mp3. I would prefer to
use gold wave.

Re: [JAWS-Users] equalizing volume for mp3 files

[Rick Justice]

Hi Lenny,
You will need to go into the properties of each file, and uncheck the box 
for "Read only".
To get to the properties, just select a file, then press Alt + Enter to open 
the properties, and then use the tab key to navigate.

HTH,
Rick Justice

A strange but certainly inconvenient problem with this update is that it
won't authorize on either of my systems running a hardware dongle. I have

a

lap top with an ILM key on it and it is not having any problems at all,

but

my towers both a 32 and 64 bit systems lost their license. I removed the
update and put the version from last month back on and the dongle works
again on the 64 bit. After lunch I'll take a crack at the 32 bit which my



wife uses. I just told her over the phone that I plan on getting her

system

back on its' feet so to speak.

Has anybody else encountered this issue? Possibly an email to tech

support

is in order, not sure right now exactly what course of action to embark.

Enhancements in JAWS 17.0.1806 (April 2016)

The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 17 March

2016

release and the April 2016 update.

To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page.

JAWS
•Added an "Explore Utilities Folder" item to the Utilities menu located

in

the JAWS window. In Windows 10, this enables you to quickly open the

folder

where you can explore various JAWS settings folders, launch the

Synthesizer

and Braille Manager to add or remove speech synthesizers or braille
displays, remove product activation, and more. Previously, you would have
to search for "utilities" in the Start menu to locate this folder. This
menu item is also available in Windows 7.
•In Windows 10, resolved an issue where JAWS would unexpectedly become
unresponsive for several seconds when switching between apps.
•Addressed a reported issue where text in the Virtual Viewer could not be
copied with MAGic running.
•Resolved a customer reported issue encountered on certain computers

where

the HJPad spell checker was not loading the dictionary.
•In response to requests from customers who are creating domain specific
scripts, added a new function, GetElementXML, which returns the XML for

the

element at the Virtual Cursor.
•When using the Windows touch keyboard, resolved an issue encountered

with

some international versions of Windows where Touch Typing was not working
as expected. With Touch Typing, a key is typed when the finger is lifted
from any of the keyboard buttons. In addition, if a triple tap is

performed

on a keyboard button, the panel of alternative characters now opens as
expected.

Braille
•In response to customer feedback, if you type "girlfriend", "boyfriend",
"girlfriends", and "boyfriends" using contracted braille, these are now
properly translated.
•Resolved an issue where JAWS would sometimes not detect a Focus Blue
braille display after bringing the computer out of hibernation.
•Resolved a customer reported issue where the contents of the Windows
Secure Desktop or the Windows Lock screen were not being shown in

braille.

•Resolved an issue where the Placement of Status Cells option in the
Startup Wizard would become unavailable if it was changed to None. This
option should only be unavailable if a braille display that does not

offer

status cells is connected.

Microsoft Outlook
•Addressed a reported issue where the checked or unchecked status of

shared

calendars was not being shown in braille.
•When pressing INSERT+H from a message list, resolved an issue where
Outlook specific hot keys were not being displayed.

Microsoft Word
•If the data in a table cell contains line breaks, JAWS now shows the

first

line of data up to the first line break on the braille display. To review
the rest of the line in braille, users can press the Next Braille Line or
Previous Braille Line commands or pan through the text.

Web Browsers
•In response to customer feedback,
