Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freezing
I don't want to overwhelm this serious issue with inherently worthless responses. However, technicians at VFO have told me that the issue is "under the hood" so to speak. Apparently, the newer versions of Jaws have been redesigned in such a way that their headroom can be inundated by software which requires more than normal functionality. In other words, the more complex the software, the higher degree of probability that Jaws might freeze or even crash under certain conditions. On the other hand, I have noticed that with jaws 18, the program will often recover itself without any prompting. The freezing is annoying but if we can be reassured that Jaws will recover, it might be something we'll just have to put up with until the designers find a way to deal with it. Personally, I think that Jaws had made some amazing progress recently. I have no reason to think that the designers won't continue to make it a better program.

JAWS does not work well with new iTunes. When in the store, and you do search JAWS is unable to read the links. iTunes works well with new NVDA.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freezing
JAWS freezing, or just being intolerably slow, has been something that's been a thorn in my side for many years. I appreciate your optimism and supportive words, but I also believe that we, as computer users, require the same speed and flexibility as everyone else. It's an unpleasant experience when you know something that should take only a matter of a few seconds takes you five minutes to accomplish just because of your screen-reader. I personally think that it's much more important to fix these problems than it is to introduce new features. That said, I'm relatively happy with JAWS 18 on my Windows 10 machine. At least I can reload it quickly if it crashes. There's also NVDA, which is, in some aspects (not all mind you), more robust. So, the situation is tolerable, just. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of John Justice Sent: January 28, 2018 11:34 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and freezing I don't want to overwhelm this serious issue with inherently worthless responses.

I would personally just use another media player, like Winamp, Foobar or VlC. I don't see the point in messing around with your user account or restore points just to be able to play a bloody mp3. Still, you don't seem to be alone with this problem, so do some more investigating online if you feel it's worth the effort. I know that's not much help. I never liked Windows media Player and don't know why Microsoft feels the need to connect to its silly network every time you want to play something. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Kimsan Sent: January 28, 2018 2:40 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] error message.

Yes. More specifically, .tif stands for "text image". Do you have a scanner? Your OCR software might make .tif images before rendering them as readable documents.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Clicking on hyperlink in Outlook.
Hi Judy. This is not an issue I have with Windows 10. Are you using outlook? If so, these steps may be helpful: 1. Click Home. 2. In the Delete group, click Junk, and then click Junk Email options. 3. On the Options tab, clear the Disable links and other functionality in phishing messages (recommended) check box. I copied that from the web, hence the non-screen-reader-specific terminology, but you probably get the idea. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: January 27, 2018 2:19 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Clicking on hyperlink in Outlook.

[JAWS-Users] jaws 18 and firefox 53 developer tools
Hi, I need to use firefox to edit the html of a webpage on the fly. According to the firefox support site I should use the page inspector to do this. My challenge is to add a new option into a combobox. I can locate the combobox in the html by searching for the word option. If I right-click on the first option node and select duplicate from the context menu, I get a new entry in the lis (good so far). My problem comes in when I want to edit the value of the option. I select edit as html friom the context menu, and am placed in presumably an edit field, but I cannot see anything in the edit box. I have explored with the pc and jaws cursors but can't find the html tags to edit. Does anyone have any experience with this tool or know how to get it to work with jaws?

Re: [JAWS-Users] error message. Windows media player.
This is definitely way off topic for this list, so we should probably stop after this. Basically it's taking control of your phone and becoming the "superuser". You can delete things that your phone came with which you don't want around. You can even change the operating system if you want to. When you root your phone though, you are on your own; good luck getting any kind of tech support from your provider. However, it's worth doing, if, for example, you can't get rid of that pesky bloatware Metro PCS or AT&T put on your phone, or if you have an SD card and for some reason the apps you have downloaded refuse to allow themselves to be moved to it. It works with Android devices, but I don't know if you can do anything equivalent with an iPhone. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of wayne smith Sent: January 28, 2018 4:35 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] error message.

Sure. I have been using NVDA too. nVDA works great with both new Firefox, and, I guess, Edge too (though I haven't used that). But I'm not sure that NVDA vs JAWS topics are welcome on this list. I made a thread when I first started using NVDA asking about opinions and all was pretty quiet. I guess that what we have here is some sort of rivalry.

I believe the scripts were called JTunes but never bought them myself. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of JM Casey Sent: Sunday, January 28, 2018 6:45 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 2018 and new iTunes Not sure what the status is nowadays, but there was someone who wrote scripts for iTunes.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 2018 and new iTunes
They were call blind Tunes by Do It Blind. I have them but didn’t seem to be working very well with jaws 18 or jaws 2018 either. Every country has an identity, history, custom, and culture. It’s a unique landscape in determining how its people Live, work, and play.

[JAWS-Users] missing folder
I've just moved to a new location and everything is a bit confused. But I thought all was well with my computer until I discovered a missing folder. In Documents, I had a folder called Books. Humanware companion is set to find books in that folder from BARD and Bookshare, and I can easily open and transfer books to my NLS player or my stream. But the folder, Books, is gone. I have Win7 64 bit computer, Jaws 18, and IE 11. Can someone please tell me how to set up that folder again?

Re: [JAWS-Users] missing folder
Miriam, I think this will work: Go to your "documents" folder and press enter. Listen to what JAWS says. It should say the name of a document and "Not selected." If you hear "Selected," press control-spacebar together and, if need be, repeat until you hear "Not selected" along with that file name. Press shift-control-n together. You should hear "Edit" and possibly "New folder." Type the name you want, "Books." And press enter. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Miriam Vieni Sent: Sunday, January 28, 2018 10:12 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] missing folder I've just moved to a new location and everything is a bit confused.
