Re: [JAWS-Users] question how to import favorites from windows xp to windows 7?
I know that Windows 7 has some sort of file transfer program, but for favorites, I just used the export feature under the file menu from within IE to generate a file with all my favorites and moved it from my old XP Pro machine to my new Windows 7 laptop via DropBox and imported them to IE 9 with the import option again under the file menu. Pretty straight forward and really nothing to it. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mich Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2012 9:04 PM To: jaws-users-list @jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] question how to import favorites from windows xp to windows 7?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows 8 Consumer Preview and JAWS 13?
Considering that JFW 14 and Windows 8 will be rolling out around the same time later this year, the new JFW release is most likely going to be Windows 8 centric which makes sense, but a bummer since that means that probably a lot of issues with current bugs having to do with Office applications and whatnot won't be given their proper attention or passed on to another JFW release which just means another used SmA. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Grant Hardy Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2012 5:45 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows 8 Consumer Preview and JAWS 13?

[JAWS-Users] Office classic menu add-ons
Hello list, Yesterday I read a blurb in the Wall Street Journal regarding the ribbons in the newer versions of Office and how even though there isn't an option to bring them back from within Office itself, there are apparently companies that provide add-ons that will make them appear again. My question is, has anyone tried out any of these add-ons on their computers and if so, is there any issue either during the installation process and or interaction with the add-on with Jaws? I guess I'm somewhat getting used to the ribbons, but if there is a means to get back the old menus, it would make it a lot easier. If it matters, I am using Office 2010 and JFW 13.

Have you maybe had a pare of eyes put the computer through its paces to see if it's not something isolated to just screen reading issues? If it's been less than a year since you got it, then it may be worth it to check whatever warrantee that came with either the machine itself or perhaps with whatever credit card or method of payment you used to buy it. That or pay for some sort of tech support to take a look at it. It would most likely be cheaper than junking the entire computer.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws Dictionary manager always crashing when adding a new word or phrase
Hello list, Having upgraded from a 32 bit XP Pro system to a 64 bit Windows 7 set up, I have had to reenter my various dictionary entries since my understanding is that 32 bit Jaws files won't work on 64 bit machines. I even called FS about this and they confirmed as much. In any event, I've been slowly doing this and since I often work in Spanish language and sometimes german, I make heavy use of this feature. I've been noticing though, every single time I enter in a new word or phrase and close the dictionary manager, It always crashes. Below is what I get: JDiction MFC Application JDiction MFC Application has stopped working Windows can check online for a solution to the problem. Check online for a solution and close the program Close the program View problem details When I click on the view problem details button I get the following information: Problem signature: Problem Event Name:APPCRASH Application Name: JDiction.EXE Application Version: 13.0.718.400 Application Timestamp:4f2b0e2d Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll Fault Module Version:6.1.7601.17725 Fault Module Timestamp: 4ec4aa8e Exception Code: c015000f Exception Offset:0006fd5c OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 4e1f Additional Information 2: 4e1f86a5fd3f48dff973c0326f8d5990 Additional Information 3: ab2b Additional Information 4: ab2b209e08203f4f7c64ae4a80dc7cf3 Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288 http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288clcid=0x0409 clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt This crashing however doesn't seem to affect Jaws or the dictionary manager as every entry I add always takes and there's no loss of Speech or anything else on behalf of Jaws. I get the first error message for every single entry though. It doesn't matter if I'm entering it into the default file, the Internet Explorer, Outlook, changing the languange the word or phrase is to be spoken in or if I'm just correcting the English language pronunciation, it will always crash. Since I've only had this machine for going on three weeks and have only used the latest JFW release on it, I can't say if this would have been an issue on earlier versions of Jaws with this type of set up. On my old XP Pro machine, I didn't have this problem and am also running the latest Jaws build. Does anyone have any ideas of what this issue may be or how to fix it? I'll write FS later about this, but since they're already closed for the day, I thought I'd send it to the list as well.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws slower in responding with imap accounts than pop with Outlook 2010?
Hello list, I've been working with Outlook 2010 and have set up a few email accounts. One thing I'm noticing though, is that jaws is noticeably slower when working with my imap emails as opposed to the ones I have set up as pop. With the pop emails, when I press the delete button or arrow through the list view of messages, Jaws works fine and as it always done, but when working with the imap messages and again, deleting or arrowing through them, Jaws gets sluggish and speech is delayed or I sometimes have to just press the say line command to get Jaws to speak the next message's information. I am using the latest JFW 13 release and am working with Outlook 2010 on a Win7 Dell. The only difference between these email accounts is the pop and imap configuration. Are others experiencing this issue or might they have an idea of how to better improve the JFW slow performance?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws slower in responding with imap accounts than pop with Outlook 2010?
Yes, thank you. I am fully aware of how both pop and imap work. As this was my first time setting up the imap on my new machine, I was unsure as to why the quite noticeable delay with Jaws speech was occurring. I'll play with the header settings and whatnot and see if that helps at all. It works perfectly fine on my iPhone. Just Jaws seems to slow down. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Don Marang Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2012 10:55 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws slower in responding with imap accounts than pop with Outlook 2010? Post Office Protocol (POP3) has a much simpler interface with your email server on the web than Interactive Mail Access Access Protocol (IMAP). POP3 just retreives everything in your Inbox on the server at regular intervals. By default, it then deletes the messages from the Invox on the server. The message is only on your PC at this point. IMAP synchronizes folders on your email server with the folders on your PC email client. The messages remain on the server until they are deleted. This is what makes IMAP better for use when reading email from different computers and devices. Each device is synchronized to have the latest, will not miss messages read on another device, or need to delete the same messages on different devices. These are problems you will likely encounter reading POP3 email on a computer and a smart phone. IMAP synchronizes several folders, like Drafts, Sent Mail, Junk Mail, and Trash. It might also synchronize other archive or labels in Gmail. If it is working slower than expected, perhaps it is synchronizing more folders or details than necessary for you. Most clients have ways, usually through using the Applications key on the folder, to set which folders should be synchronized, or hidden. It is also possible to indicate that for this folder, just synchronize the headers rather than the entire messages. Reducing the amount of work the client needs to perform to keep up with your email will make it snappier! *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org http://www.vinuxproject.org/ On 2/21/2012 12:01 PM, CM54 wrote: Hello list, I've been working with Outlook 2010 and have set up a few email accounts.
