I did it and named it, creatively enough, volume, and assigned control+alt+v, which gets you to the master volume control on my Windows 10 Home system. Then, alt+x gets you to the mixer controls where you can adjust programs separately, supposedly. Here is what I found: Yes,you can create a Master Volume Shortcut and also assign a Shortcut Key. Right click on a empty area on desktop, and click on New and Shortcut. Paste the following in to the location of the item area:- %windir%\System32\SndVol.exe -f 49825268 Click Next button and give a name to the Shortcut and click Finish.

I have not been able to use the drag and drop capability in MS Word, and I think it would require some sight to be able to do this. Have you considered looking for a program that allows you to input the data in text format, and then have it create the org chart? Many years ago I was trying to find such a program, and I think a couple did exist.

[JAWS-Users] fast copy
I started to take a closer look at this program and it does have some important advantages over some older comparable programs for backing up files ETC. For example it is much faster than Karen's’ replicator which for me has been the gold standard for many years already. The rub is its’ help file is roughly as useful as a screen door in a submarine. Specifically where it comes to creating multiple jobs is my current stumbling block along with another item or so, but I like to tackle one thing at a time. So if anybody out there has some pointers or better documentation I would appreciate having a look myself. Thanks in advance.

Press enter. This opens the menu allowing you to check and uncheck columns. If you want to rearrange the columns, go left past that button and you'll find the header items like subject and the like. Find the one you want to move, press the keystroke to lock mouse button, with laptop layout that would be shift caps lock num row 8. then left or right to the colum you'd like to place this before and press the mouse lock toggle again. Note that the columns are read in the same order regardless of their actual position when using touch cursor. You'll have to try to move it, then go back to pc cursor and navigate the list of messages to see if you did it. If it fails, try dragging other columns around the one want to move instead and see if that works. It's a bit messy but can be done with a little time and a big dose of patients. Once you have a folder set up, you may want to assign that folder's column view settings to all folders, this is available in that button that says choose which columns to display near the bottom says something like apply to folder, you can apply it to your entire email account that way if you want to.

[JAWS-Users] blind tunes scripts for Itunes
I'm using jaws 2018 and windows 7. I've yet to figure out how to delete the Jaws scripts called BlindTunes for Itunes. These scripts have not been updated in quite a while. Itunes is constantly updating their program which is probably the reason the developer has discontinued them. I'm wondering if I deleted and reinstalled Itunes would this get rid of the scripts?

Re: [JAWS-Users] word 2016 protected mode
Hi Mr. Ed, This command goes to the Backstage view or File tab and there, in the Info tab, presses the Enable Editing button. Regarding why many documents open in Protected View by default, this is the case for files saved with the Office 97-2003 formats whose file extensions hadn't a final x or m. Since these files could contain macros with no way to know at a glance if this was the case, and because macros may be an important security risk as this is executable code inside the document, by default Office 2010 and latter open files from e-mail, Internet or potentially unsafe locations like removable drives in Protected View, which disables any macros and other similar technologies until you expressly authorize to work with the file at its full. This is not the case for the new file types whose extensions have a final x or m, because files ending with x, unlike those ending with m, cannot contain macros. You can, of course, disable this for all documents in the Trust Center Settings dialog for each Office program separately. Hope it helps! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List On Behalf Of Mr. Ed Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2018 8:20 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] word 2016 protected mode Hi, Could you please tell me what each of these key commands do? key command is alt f I then e to get out of protective mode I would like to know what each of these key commands do when I press them so I can understand what menu button I am selecting.

Re: [JAWS-Users] reading pdf's in Edge?
What I did to read a PDF was saved it to the desktop giving it an unordinary name. I chose Weird. Then launching Open Book, I went to Open Document and selected the PDF option. Next I looked on the desktop and found the file named Weird. After I pressed Enter, Open Book started reading it. I also tried turning on Narrator in Edge, but I wasn't able to stop Narrator from reading the whole document. In other words, I wasn't able to read word by word nor line by line. Hopefully this'll work for you. Or better yet, maybe someone will share a bit of JAWS magic with us to make it easier to read PDF's.
