[JAWS-Users] Going to give a Day-runner type program a chance again. Any recs for ease of use w/Jaws?
Hi folks, In the past, I've tried a program or two to replace my Day Runner, but never been satisfied with their performance or the ease of use. Anyone got a recommendation for a program that's simple to use, and will give me the basics? Primarily, I want to set my To do list, have the current day's list open up when I launch, and check off tasks as they're completed so they move into a "done" list or are marked as completed so I can still reference them for that day. I know there are all sorts of bells and whistles available now, but I'm pretty much a luddite when it comes to this, so the simpler, the better. Also, I want to avoid a program that does this sort of thing through my e-mail(since I'm clinging onto Outlook Express until I can no longer run it), and would like to keep my scheduling and e-mail totally separate. Thanks in advance for any tips!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Update: Jaws speaking Heading Level 1 (issue resolved, thanks!)
Hi Don, After some trial & error last night, I called Freedom Scientific today and had my wife (sighted) on hand to pretty much go thru the steps you outlined below. Thanks to everybody who responded (or who might later when they catch up), much appreciated. Thanks too to Cory (Corey?) at FS, he had me running headings-free in a whopping three minutes. Only thing the wife and I missed last night was actually starting out with the Insert V keystroke in the application (WORD) I was particularly interested in. We started from there today, and then I believe followed the steps you detailed for other apps. Situation resolved, things runnin' great. Jaws 11 mini-review?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws speaking: Heading Level 1 question
I'm a luddite and would probably still be using Jaws 6 if I didn't need to run some newer stuff. Skipped 10 entirely, and my biggest problem has been the need to update I.E. So far, everything seems to be working fine w/version 11, and this Heading Level 1 problem initially disappeared after a reboot, popped up again briefly, and after a restart of WORD hasn't reared it's ugly head again. If I continue having problems I may call FS about it, but so far, the evening's gotten a heckuva lot better. Best, Joe Monks Every day you haven't written is a day you've written off...

[JAWS-Users] Word error keeps spellcheck from working, suggestions?
Hi folks, Just upgraded (yeah, I know, little behind the times...) to WORD 2003 for XP. I'm running Jaws 9.05.01. Here's the issue. When I try to spellcheck a document, I get the following problem when I try using the arrow key to see what is actually in the spellcheck window: Unknown function call to: isdocprotected Jaws spells this out exactly as above, with the isdocprotected all one word. My recent problem was getting Jaws to speak in the spellcheck window, could never get that fixed, so we uninstalled my old copy of WORD and installed the newer version my wife owns since this one has been more stable for her. Any ideas? This potentially a WORD problem, or a Jaws problem? For five years, Jaws and WORD worked pretty seamlessly, until the WORD dictionary and spellcheck started getting glitchy, before failing to work entirely. Any help is greatly appreciated, hope all had a good new year's.

[JAWS-Users] Outlook Express rec?
Hi folks, Been having a bit of an issue lately with my Outlook Express. When I first boot up, the first time I open the program, JAWS does not read out if mail is read/unread, when I open a mail it automatically starts reading it like a web page (i.e. Page has 18 links... instead of beginning with the text of the message), and when I try to shift from identity to identity, in the Switch Identity menu, the arrow up or down keys are met with Jaws telling me: "No Selected Item." Now, I can still change identities because I know which is which by heart, but on the next identity, there is the same problems, and Outlook Express quickly gets glitchier and glitchier until I restart. If, however, when I boot up, this problem occurs, if I shut down(full shut down, not restart), on the second or third boot, the problem is gone. My wife has run through a number of updates, I've Googled around to see if I can find any patch for this problem, and nada. Anybody have any ideas about a fix, or if not, has anybody moved on to MS Mail who can tell me if the Switch Identity function works the same? I rather dislike the full blown version of Outlook and like the simple means of switching identities in the file menu. I have four very active business e-mail accounts, and I don't want any confusion with them, so OE has always offered me a pretty foolproof means of switching back and forth. Any suggestions/recommendations are greatly appreciated. Oh, and the Jaws version is 9.0. Thanks.

[JAWS-Users] Is anybody using Cloudmark?
Hi folks, Anybody out there using Cloudmark as a SPAM screener? My wife says it's the most effective program she's ever run, but I haven't been able to find out about its ease of use with Jaws. Has anybody tried it? Thanks in advance.

I thought there was a keystroke to launch JAWS, but after searching around, I haven't been able to find it.

I've heard people talk about a means of blogging where you simply e-mail your blog to an address you set in the software, so your subject line becomes your blog header/title, and your blog appears as what is contained in the body of the e-mail. Does anybody know if WordPress is capable of this, or another blogging software program that is friendly with JAWS? Thanks much for any suggestions.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Question about working offline (for no reason)
Thanks much, Mark. Follow-up: if I make this change, when traveling, would my laptop automatically recognize if I used the dial-up or I'd continue to have to switch back and forth? Up until this problem first began, if I were traveling and used a dial-up, the computer automatically recognized that port was being used and brought up my Connect Using... box so I could type in the number. It isn't a dealbreaker if I need to switch the settings every time I travel, but sure be nicer to have the box automatically figure out which means of connecting I was using, as it used to until recently. Thanks! Best, Joe Monks Every day you haven't written is a day you've written off...

[JAWS-Users] Question about working offline (for no reason)
Well, no good reason, at least. I am not sure why, but for the past several weeks, if I tab into the address bar to type in a web site, google.com for example, if I mistype the address, I am instantly shuttled to a screen offering me connection options since I have been declared to be working offline. This never happened before, and I have typed plenty of wrong URLs in the past. Anybody know why this might be happening? Since it seems my computer's default setting for the internet is a dial-up connection (though I am on DSL), I have to shut down the browser and relaunch it every time this occurs. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks. I am running Internet Explorer with Jaws 7 on one laptop, Jaws 8 with IE on the other.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Suggestion
Hi Chris, Maybe it's just me, but I've rarely felt that this list's traffic has gotten to the point that even some non-informative posts (thank yous, etc.) has created any significant problems, even when I was on dial-up. I do know that while it would certainly cut down on list traffic to do as you suggest, I know I catch info about programs and functionality that I never even thought to ask about; a quick keystroke or tip; information about issues that I hadn't encountered in JAWS yet, that have been invaluable to me, which I have only stumbled upon by reading the group posts. That's my .02 cents. Plus, wouldn't the suspense get to you if you saw a really good question and nobody on-list answered it? 8() Best, Joe Monks Every day you haven't written is a day you've written off...

Re: [JAWS-Users] thunderbird
I pitched Thunderbird for the ex-western thing. The program itself is very accessible, it's supposed to be more stable than Outlook Express, it has better archiving features, but the ex-western after every paragraph and whenever I opened a new message was a dealbreaker after about four days. I'm back on OE until either something better comes along, or somebody figures out how to configure T-bird and JAWS not to read ex-western in message bodies.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Dell and Demo programs
I just got a new DELL laptop, and one of the things I learned from the rep I spoke to was that if you look at their small business models, the machines come with nothing installed on them but the operating system (and you can still get XP if you want), and that at any given time there are just as many small biz machines on sale at the same price as the home/personal use machines. Goes for almost all their desktop models, too. The next time anybody upgrades, if you're looking into a DELL, see about their Dell Deals in the small business section and you'll find sturdier machines without most, if not all, bonus programs. My first DELL laptop more than 5 years ago was an Inspiron, and it's still running great, despite me having toted it around the country a number of times and it running an average of 14-16 hours a day. The DELL rep was surprised the thing was still alive. Now I upgraded to a Latitude model, and it came totally clean. DELL gets paid to put all the giveaway programs on their home use systems (or so the guy at DELL told me), which keeps the prices down. Now that I know this, I'm going to stick with the small biz tier of computers. I think the biggest price difference I saw in the two models I was interested in was $79 bucks, and to get a machine without all the software I never plan to use that would have to be uninstalled, the few extra bucks was well worth it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] new JAWS keystroke
I hadn't even heard about a new keystroke, and this is one that on my older laptop I would need to have. Is there a master list of all current keystrokes available somewhere? I'd love to put together my own keystroke cheat sheet for the ones that I don't use as frequently so eventually I could memorize them all.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Thunderbird questions
I think my wife posted something on a Thunderbird message board, if I hear anything back, I will definitely post it. I like the stability of T Bird so far, but if I can't figure out how to get rid of all that extra speech and the delay every time I send a mail while it reads me out the progress bar, etc., I'm going back to Outlook Express.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Thunderbird questions
Yeah, that ex western is really annoying. Am hoping to find a solution to that ASAP. Insofar as sending my mail, I do believe it is sending it out quick, it is just that every time I send something it reads through the whole line about sending, progress percentage, etc. I am wondering if that might be more a JAWS setting than T Bird, as OE doesn't do this while sending, only while receiving.

Re: [JAWS-Users] scripts for thunderbird
Ditto the thanks for the scripts, hopefully I will have them in this afternoon and can test them out. Has anybody had an issue with their e-mail client (OE or T Bird) reading out odd stuff in the blank lines between paragraphs or headers? For instance, I get a new mail on my new laptop, and in the first double space, JAWS says: Ex Western. This happens between all paragraphs. It did not happen on my older laptop in OE, but now it is happening in both T Bird and OE. I'm not quite sure even what Ex Western refers to. The text itself of those two words does not appear in the body of the mail, only where OE used to say simply, 'Blank.' If anybody knows if this is JAWS related or e-mail program related, much thanks.

[JAWS-Users] Thunderbird questions
Hi folks, I remember a few months ago (I think it was David), jumped to Thunderbird and was playing around in it. Well, ditto here, and if anybody can help me out on the following two items, I'll be grateful. 1) Is there a menu that enables you to determine which fields TBird reads first in the Incoming Mail pane? In Outlook Express, it read out a new mail this way to me: Unread, From, Bugs Bunny, subject colon left bracket Jaws dash users right bracket, Joe is lost, Six slash thirteen slash zero six, twelve thirty two p.m. T-Bird is reading out the subject line, then the sender, then me for some reason, and then the time, and then all sorts of other stuff that I would prefer not to hear at all. Anybody know what menu I have to get to to change this? My wife has workin' eyeballs, she hasn't found it yet, either. 2) When I hit SEND, in OE, the message used to disappear instantly, and the list would be back up of new messages. Now, every time I hit SEND, Thunderbird tells me (and this takes several seconds) that it is sending, progress, etc. It is quite time consuming to wait around for four to five seconds with every mail I reply to or generate. Anybody know if there is a way to change that? This laptop is smoking fast, I can't imagine that my older system, 5+ years old, was faster at sending out a message than this system is. Thanks, as always, for any help.
