I have never used NVDA before but I did manage to get the copy and re-install it on my system. But I had no way of knowing how to turn off NVDA so that was an interesting time with both systems talking simultaneously. As an emergency alternative, NVDA isn't bad. There are some things about it that are quite useful, especially the tone which goes up in steps and keeps you informed as to how far the progress bar has gone. But that voice! Good Heavens!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Sorry, but I need to rant about v12 of JAWS!

Dear Becky Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support. Try taking the steps below and see if the issue persist. 1. Activate the run dialog Windows key+r 2.

Good morning, I've been a supporter of JAWS since version 2.x. Always have stayed up-to-date on my SMA. Never have I been totally dismayed with a major update until version 12.x. This has got to be the worst release of JAWS I've ever tried. First graphics it use to read as so, it now recognizes them as buttons. Quite irritating when you use quick navigation keys to jump to certain elements of a web page to read it faster. And it is quite the memory hog! JAWS 12.x crashes so much on my high-end Windows 7 machine, I've gone back to using 11.x. Think it has something to do with the Virtual Ribbon or new fangled Config manager, who knows. Anycase, it is very irritating to be reading a web page, only to have it go silent for 3 minutes, and then JAWS comes back. Sorry HJ, but I hate v12 of JAWS and have gone back to using v11.x perminantly. It's more stable and doesn't crash every 5 minutes. Wish you allowed us to switch the config manager back to the old one. Do away with using this new Virtual Ribbon. Give us a choice to switch them on and off. If I get booted for expressing my feelings on this list, so be it. Never done this before, until now. Feel better getting this off my chest. Thanks for listening.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS stopping speech in an edit field
Hi all. Quite often when I am writing in an edit field and then go back to the top to proof what I have typed, JAWS will read down three or four lines and then stop. I cannot arrow down any father. I can do control-end and it will read the bottom line, but that's it. Any ideas why this is happening? I'm using JAWS 11. Thanks for any help.

Those things are nice and all, but wouldn't it be great if it would work the way it should in standard applications?

It has been my experience that programs that do only one thing, tend to do it better and more consistently than programs that try to cover a broad range of tasks. And this is just the nature of the beast. The thing that people need to realize is, software developers don't make money on fixes, they make their money on new features. This is true of all, not just FS. We keep asking for more and more things to be added to Jaws, and this adds to the complexity of the program. So, here's a thought: How about if we stop asking for the bells and whistles, and ask for more stability from one version to the next. This is not a complaint, only a statement.

In OE it usually reads messages ok, but too frequently when you delete a message it doesn't start reading the next message automatically. I do not have this problem with JFW 10. I think something has to be done about the focus problem. Although 11 has some nice features, I'm not sure it is worth the annoying focus problem to use it. I find myself going back to 10. And yes, I have filled out the FS form.

Yes, it's not one specific thing per say, but just a general slowness when trying to read something or navigating around a page and so on. Going up and down the list box of e-mails messages in outlook 2003, pages with lots of links in IE etc. JFW 10 just feels snappier and over all more responsive. That's why I thought I'd ask around first to get an idea if it just might be my machine and set up.

Hello list, Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a slight sluggishness when using jaws 11 as opposed to jfw 10? I've been switching back and forth between both versions since somethings like firefox and outlook I'm finding work better with 10.0 and when I'm using 11, it's as though there's a little hesitation with the reading commands. Especially in IE8 and in any sort of word processing app. I'm usually running between 23 and 31 processes at any given time with both versions. I'm running xp pro and office 2003. Nothing out of the ordinary. It's nothing drastic, but enough to be noticeable. I'm just curious if it may just be me.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 11 Public Beta Update posted September 8th
If someone has the direct link to the beta, please post it. For some reason, I can't seem to get to anything but 10. Thanks. - Original Message - From: Eric Damery edam...@freedomscientific.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 4:02 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 11 Public Beta Update posted September 8th All, We have just gone live with the first update to the public beta version of JAWS 11. You can get this update two ways. 1. Use your check for update feature in the Help Menu of JAWS 11 Public Beta version. 2. Go to the Download link for JAWS 11.0..536 and download the full build to your machine and install it. Note, you can install it right over top of the first one or you can install it on a machine without having ever installed the first public beta. Makes no difference. The full list of enhancements will be posted to the What's New page on September 9th. Below is the changes to the Research It feature which we hope you will all look at and try out with the new build. Regards, Eric Damery Freedom Scientific Research It Note: For a demonstration of Research It, listen to the August 2009 FSCast. Features such as Web Slices in Internet Explorer 8 and gadgets saved in your Windows Sidebar are intended to make it easy for you to quickly obtain information. This material is presented in a format that is quick to scan visually. However, when using assistive technology tools, there is often extra information presented that is easier to ignore visually than when listening or reading with braille. Research It is a new feature that provides quick access to information while also making it easy to return to your primary task. Use just a few keystrokes to look up information and display salient data in the Virtual Viewer. When you have finished researching, press another keystroke to return to the task you were performing before the research started. All that is required to use Research It is an Internet connection. There are multiple ways to launch and use Research It. By default, Wiktionary is the primary look up source. This means that while the cursor is on a word in a document or Web page, you can press the default keystroke, INSERT+WINDOWS Key+R, to quickly lookup the Wiktionary description for that word. You can always change the primary lookup source at any time using the JAWS Configuration Manager, which lets you select which lookup source to use as the JAWS default or as the default for individual applications. As you become more familiar with Research It, and as more lookup modules are created and made available to you, you will want to change the default look up source used by JAWS, or just use a different look up source on the fly. The most efficient way to search for a term is to use the new layered keystroke, INSERT+SPACEBAR, R. By pressing and releasing INSERT+SPACEBAR, and then pressing R, you can open the Research It edit field to type a word or expression of interest. This can be a zip code, or city and state, or city and country that can be used with the Weather look up tool to read a forecast, or a date that is used to view baseball or football schedules and scores, or a word to use with the Wikipedia search query to view its meaning or description. After viewing these results, press ESC to close the Virtual Viewer window and return to your original focus point. If you are a software developer or script developer, you can create and customize your own lookup module DLL and tailor it to your organization's needs. For example, if your company specializes in medical equipment, you can create a lookup source that is essentially a glossary of medical and industry terms. A developer's guide that outlines formatting for rule sets and debugging techniques is available at Research It Developer's Guide. The next section provides examples of how to use Research It. If you need more information, refer to the Research It topic in the JAWS help file. Research It Examples The following shows how you can use the Weather, Wikipedia, NFL Scores, and Reuters Top News Stories search options in Research It to look up specific information. Use the Weather lookup source to receive the current weather forecast for any location based on city name, airport code, or zip code. The following example uses the INSERT+SPACEBAR, R keystroke. Press INSERT+SPACEBAR, R to open the Research It edit field. In the edit field, type your current location, for example, St. Petersburg, Florida, or your local airport code, for example, TPA, or your local zip code, for example, 33771, and then press ENTER. The Research It dialog box opens with a list of available resource items. The primary search item always appears first in the list. Use the UP and DOWN ARROWS or first letter navigation to select Weather and then press ENTER. After a few seconds, the Virtual Viewer window opens and displays the weather forecast for the entered location. After reading the information,

I am not sure of his age, whether he is old enough to drive, drink, or retire, but being a member of the Moderator's Union we know that retirement is out of the picture since their benefit package basically sucks. Would you all rise from your keyboards, place one hand on your keyboard, one hand on your screen reading program of choice, and please join me in singing Happy Birthday to Rick. We all know what an invaluable asset he is to the lists' and this would be a nice thank you to him. Thanks much, take care.
