[JAWS-Users] Using the jaws curser with fire fox

2016-09-23 Thread Angel238
I have lost the ability to use the Jaws curser with fire fox.  I learned how, 
and saved the e-mail.  But my computer was stolen with the e-mail instructions 
on it, and I don't know how any longer to configure fire fox to read using Jaws 
10 and fire fox.  Please send me the instructions again, and I shall do my best 
to save the information perhaps in a safer place this time.  Thank you in 
advance for your cooperation in this matter.  As I am unable to properly access 
my banks site.

Thanks, Hans.

This is very helpful!

Will give these steps a try the next time I need them.  Will also save for
future reference.

Hi Tom.

Press Windows-key+e and select the drive you want to search on.
Press f3 and type the part of the filename that you know, and press 
shift+tab twize or possible 3 times to the listview.
Arrow down to the file that you are searching for, and press the Application
key, and arrow down to "Open filefolder" and press enter.

Now you are located at the filefolder where the file is stored.

Hope this helps.

Hi.


press f3 when you're at the location from which you want the search to
begin. Focus goes to the search box, type your search keyword(s) and I
believe press enter, not sure if you have to or not. The results come up in
the traditional style your list view is set to. Tab out of the edit box to
find them when there are any. Caps lock page down may possibly tell you
something about the progress of the search attempt. Backspace to go back to
the folder you searched from.

Yes it is Sherri. It is one of several apps (Groove Music, Windows Defender,

tries to make their OS user friendly immediately after installation, so it 
provides these apps free of charge to address common end-user tasks (Checking

Hello,

Even though I do like how well JAWS v17 works with the default Mail app for
Windows 10, I still gave the Windows Live Mail application a try. It seems
to work even better with JAWS, and offers a whole lot more bells and
whistles (News reader, Podcast and RSS feeds etc.).

Are there any FS (Or user) tutorials out there giving tips on how to
interact with WLM using JAWS? Maybe a list of all available keyboard
shortcuts.

One of the things I did like with the default mail app is that it gave you
the number of replies for a particular thread in the subject line. WLM doesn’t
seem to do that. Is there a way of enabling this?

Also does WLM offer a message view pain. Meaning as you arrow through the
list of message subjects, a portion of the associated message body will be
shown in a view window pain. If WLM does offer such a feature, how do I turn
it on.

I’m very surprised that MS stop development on WLM for it seems to be much
more advanced then the new Mail app they’ve replaced it with.

Thanks for any help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Any Tips for Using Windows Live Mail with JAWS v17?

2016-09-23 Thread David Moore

Hi Sherrie,
The default app for win10 is just the mail app. Just press the windows key 
and type mail in the search edit, and press enter and the mail app will 
open. You can go to settings by tabbing, and set up your account by just 
typing in the email and password. For WLM, it works great with JAWS 17. You 
must now, at this point, import the MS email accounts like Outlook, and 
Hotmail, for example, into WLM as IMAP accounts. You can still use these MS 
accounts in WLM if you import them into WLM as IMAP accounts by putting in 
the right port information and such. I have a tutorial about doing that if 
anyone would like it.

Hi.


For the record, in case there's not some specific reason to use a
microsoft mail client as your fallback that i'm unaware of, Thunderbird
might be suitable. It gets very sluggish if you have lots of emails
being synced while you're trying to read messages, but the sluggishness
goes away once it is synced up. You can do threaded conversation view,
and are able with JAWS's drag and drop feature most of the time to move
the columns around to get a really efficient order of information in the
message list so you can quickly perhaps even more quickly than the
microsoft clients review and delete unwanted conversations and the like.
I can most likely help you set up thunderbird if you want to try it and
could use help. If you're interested let me know the best way to contact
you. Can you use skype chat? I'm profoundly deaf, I'm generally most
comfortable using instant messages.

Hi.


For the record, in case there's not some specific reason to use a
microsoft mail client as your fallback that i'm unaware of, Thunderbird
might be suitable. It gets very sluggish if you have lots of emails
being synced while you're trying to read messages, but the sluggishness
goes away once it is synced up. You can do threaded conversation view,
and are able with JAWS's drag and drop feature most of the time to move
the columns around to get a really efficient order of information in the
message list so you can quickly perhaps even more quickly than the
microsoft clients review and delete unwanted conversations and the like.
I can most likely help you set up thunderbird if you want to try it and
could use help. If you're interested let me know the best way to contact
you. Can you use skype chat? I'm profoundly deaf, I'm generally most
comfortable using instant messages.

[JAWS-Users] Problems When Searching For A Lost File On The Computer

2016-09-23 Thread Tom Behler
Hello, everyone.

 

I am having a problem when trying to search for a lost file on my computer.

 

What I used to do was to go to my computer, and then the drive I thought the
file was saved in.  I'd then hit control F, and the search would proceed.

 

I'd be notified when the search was completed, and I could then tab to get
the results, usually telling me where the lost file was located.

 

I can't seem to get this to work any longer.

 

I'm using Jaws 17 on a Windows 7 laptop here.

 

Dr.  Tom Behler from Michigan

Hi.

Another solution is if your computers both have decent bluetooth to use a
bluetooth keyboard that has multiple connection support like the logitech
k760. I believe there are other logitech keyboards that can do this also. Of
interest, if you wanted just one set of speakers it might be possible if one
of your computer has line in, to have a patch cable going from the speaker
out jack on one computer to the line in jack on the other, then on the one
that has the line in, set it to listen to the line in jack through that
computer's output sound card. Then use speakers connected to the computer
with the line in jack and you should be able to hear both computers through
the same set of speakers, at the same time so you'll know if the one you're
not using right now is up to something if it has speech or is playing
sounds. Of course, if you use two sets of speakers moot point. The speaker
discussion might be worth thinking about even if you go for kvm switch,
especially if it does have no audio support.

Good luck. I use USB speakers on my desktop computers USB powered speakers
that is so very low power usage, and I just leave them be so all my
computers can be heard any time they're up to something that makes noise.

[JAWS-Users] Windows 10 mail;

2016-09-23 Thread David Whitehead
Good afternoon to all;

 

One of my client's would like to setup the windows 10 mail client.

 

I would like to just verify some information,

 

1, to setup the email account,

I need to go to,

 

Settings, windows-key+i

 

2, tab to the list of items, and right arrow and enter on,

Accounts,

 

3, then I need to again tab once,

Now, arrow down and enter on,

Email accounts,

 

4, again I need to tab and here I see, add email account,

Here I would add enter.

 

Now the type of account is Gmail,

So, I assume I choose google?

 

Now, when I go through the setup,

Will my client just receive all new messages from the Gmail account?

Or, can my client receive all previous mail.

 

Just want to make sure I will do this right.

In advance, thank you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Any Tips for Using Windows Live Mail with JAWS v17?

2016-09-23 Thread valiant8086

Hi.


It's a universal style app, sometimes refered to as a metro app, called, 
most imaginatively, mail. As of the latest jaws 17 update or perhaps the 
second latest, it is said to be accessible with JAWS. I personally find 
the extra verbiage and inconsistent reading in the message list plus 
unreliability of actually being able to read the messages when I open 
them to leave that a subjective matter though. I like the app's 
simplicity and speed though and very much intend to switch once 
accessibility issues are resolved. As it is now thunderbird remains 
vastly more efficient for my personal needs.

Hello,

Even though I do like how well JAWS v17 works with the default Mail app for
Windows 10, I still gave the Windows Live Mail application a try. It seems
to work even better with JAWS, and offers a whole lot more bells and
whistles (News reader, Podcast and RSS feeds etc.).

Are there any FS (Or user) tutorials out there giving tips on how to
interact with WLM using JAWS? Maybe a list of all available keyboard
shortcuts.

One of the things I did like with the default mail app is that it gave you
the number of replies for a particular thread in the subject line. WLM doesn’t
seem to do that. Is there a way of enabling this?

Also does WLM offer a message view pain. Meaning as you arrow through the
list of message subjects, a portion of the associated message body will be
shown in a view window pain. If WLM does offer such a feature, how do I turn
it on.

I’m very surprised that MS stop development on WLM for it seems to be much
more advanced then the new Mail app they’ve replaced it with.

Thanks for any help.
