Re: [JAWS-Users] a list of programs that work on w-10
hi jim: thanks for the info. but I really do not need the steps on reinstalling jaws. I've does this so many times, I can do it in my sleep, so to speak. I'm not naïve. so just because I asked a question or told about my experience, do not assume I'm a newbie. have a nice day. howard wolcott -- From: "jim" Sent: Wednesday, August 05, 2015 1:28 PM To: Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a list of programs that work on w-10 yes, you should reinstall Jaws 16, here is why. yes, you are correct, it does come up talking and you can access the start button correctly. but I noticed while playing around with all apps region, and the live tile area, jaws was very sluggish. After removing and reinstalling, the apps area and the tile area worked much smoother. Microsoft also recommends a fresh install of Jaws 16 after installing windows 10 from either w-7 or w-8.1. It is not that difficult to do. After uninstalling jaws 16, turn on Narrator with windows key+enter, to close the programs and features window, and go to restart your computer, press enter. Wait for a reasonable time until you know that the sign in screen is up, type your password and press enter. Again, wait for a reasonable time, press windows key+enter to start Narrator. go to your download folder where you will have put the jaws 16 program file, down arrow to the jaws file. press caps lock key+escape to exit narrator, or skip this step and wait until the installation of jaws has started to close narrator. , now press enter on the Jaws 16 program file to start installation. Depending on your computer you will either have to press enter again for the Jaws instillation, or the ALT+y, for the users account dialog which will pop up. finish installing Jaws, Important, if you chose to keep your share settings, which I would and did do on my computer. jaws 16 will install and after you hit finish, it will come on speaking, no restart. Make sure you reset your short cut start up key for jaws. Make sure you check the setting and check the box for jaws to come on at the log on screen before restarting. Every other setting should be retained. -Original Message- From: Howard Sent: Wednesday, August 05, 2015 6:21 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a list of programs that work on w-10 hi jim: just to let you know. in windows 8.1, when updating to win10, you don't have to uninstall and then reinstall jaws16. it came right up talking. just clarifying your blanket statement about this. howard wolcott -- From: "jim" Sent: Tuesday, August 04, 2015 2:54 PM To: Subject: [JAWS-Users] a list of programs that work on w-10 this is by no means a complete list of working programs in windows 10, just ones that I have tested. email clients: Windows live mail 2012, works excellent.

Re: [JAWS-Users] issue with JAWS 14 Beta 2 and the Research It Weatherlook-up source
hi josh: you are absolutely right. first time I've ever seen this. unfortunately it won't be fixed until either the next beta build, if there is one, or the first release of the actual jaws 14 release. howard wolcott -- From: "Josh Eubank" Sent: Friday, October 05, 2012 5:05 PM To: Subject: [JAWS-Users] issue with JAWS 14 Beta 2 and the Research It Weatherlook-up source List, When I attempt to look up the weather, JAWS 14 Beta 2 is only reading the current condition, temperature, etc, for that day. It will not read anything passed that. I.E. When you go to the summaries for the days of the week, all you will hear JAWS read is Friday, Friday night, Saturday, etc. It completely skips the summaries underneath the listing of the days. I just finished testing this with the latest build of 13, and it works as expected, just as it did in Beta one. Let me know if you're able to produce this by looking up the weather for your own area. I'd be interested to find out if anyone else is experiencing this.

Hi all, There may be an easier way to calculate but... I downloaded DB-Burnett, Carol-One More Time- A Memoir-DB25096 from USA Bard library and it states that book is 10 hours 31 minutes. I went into properties and book is Size: 110 MB (115,449,182 bytes) My friend has a 1 GB cartridge and he asked me how many books could fit on a cartridge. 1 GB = 1000 MB I used the 110 mb but I needed to round the bytes to 116 to get a good rounded number without truncation. so 1000 divided by 116 = 8.6 So approximately 8 complete books that are 10 hours and 31 minutes long could fit on 1 GB cartridge. Or approximately 84 / 85 hours can fit on a 1 GBB cartridge if downloaded from Bard site. What I did is that I copied the book to cartridge and then renamed it 1 to 9 and copied to cartridge and on the ninth time Windows stated disk is full. At first I divided 1000 by 110 but I need to take the byte size and round up to get an approximation. of this 10.5 hours could fit on a 1 GB cartridge.

JAWS *Resolved issues with the Research It sports scores lookup sources where the expected results were not being returned whether you entered a specific date or not. *Addressed an issue with the Wiktionary lookup source not returning a definition if searching for a word containing uppercase letters. *Resolved an issue with the Time Search lookup source for Research It only returning the list of time formats you can use, however no actual results for your search were returned. *Updated the JAWS Help system to make it easier for users to locate firewall and ILM multi-user network authorization information. These topics can be found under Network JAWS and in the Index. *JAWS no longer says "selected" when using SHIFT+LEFT ARROW or SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW in ribbons to move between groups. *When performing a Say All using a setting other than the default Line without pauses, addressed an issue where JAWS would read the last line, sentence, or paragraph continuously until CTRL was pressed to silence speech. *JAWS is now less verbose when announcing the start or end of ARIA regions on Web pages. *When using Convenient OCR, the resulting text now remains available if you switch between the JAWS and Invisible Cursor. The text is removed when you activate the PC Cursor. *Addressed an issue where JAWS was not properly speaking the Username edit field on the Talking Communities Webinar client login screen. *Resolved a customer reported issue where JAWS would speak part of the word just typed when pressing BACKSPACE and Typing Echo is set to Characters and Words.

Microsoft Internet Explorer *When on the last line of a multi-line edit field and Forms Mode is not active, resolved an issue where pressing the END key would jump to the beginning of the field instead of the end of the line as expected. *Pressing INSERT+SHIFT+V no longer opens the Personalized Web Settings dialog box. You can configure personalized Web settings using Quick Settings (INSERT+V). *Resolved an issue where alt text in links was not being spoken when hi: yep. the Text Links Show option in Quick Settings was set to Title. *After using SHIFT+ENTER to open a link in a new window, when you close the window, focus now returns to the link you opened. Previously, JAWS would place you back at the top of the page. *Resolved an issue with the Page Refresh option in Quick Settings. Microsoft Outlook *JAWS is now much more responsive when navigating messages in Outlook 2010 that contain graphics. *Resolved an issue where pressing ENTER on a button in the spell checker would not work unless you first used INSERT+3 to pass the keystroke through. Activating buttons with the SPACEBAR worked correctly. *Resolved reported issues of JAWS not reading reliably while navigating in the Calendar using the Day View. *When navigating text you are editing in the Signatures and Stationary dialog box in Outlook 2007 and 2010, addressed an issue where JAWS would not speak the phonetic or ASCII value when navigating by cha

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 13 Public Beta 3 scheduled for 2 PM eastern, October 13
hi eric: thank you! thank you! thank you! researchit for sports info works like a charm once again. hopefully it will work for a long time. if it does break once again in the future and you find out about it before we do, please let us know and that you are aware of it. it will save you from a lot of frustration emails and not clutter up the list needlessly. thanks once again. from a formerly complaining jaws user: howard wolcott -- From: "Eric Damery" Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 12:45 PM To: Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 13 Public Beta 3 scheduled for 2 PM eastern,October 13 All, At 2 PM Eastern, you should find an update to JAWS 13 Public Beta 3. The new version will be 13.0.241 and you will get alerted the next time JAWS starts, after it is released. I have included the list of changes coming in this new build for you to review. Thanks again to everyone for the great feedback over the past weeks. Eric Damery Enhancements in JAWS 13.0.241 (October 13, 2011) The following is a list of improvements made between JAWS 13.0.171, public beta 2, and 13.0.241, public beta 3. Note that while many customer reported enhancements are included in this release, the following is a list of more notable changes. JAWS * Resolved an issue with all of the sports scores look up sources for Research It not returning any results. * Resolved issues with the Stock Quotes Research It look up source. * Resolved an issue selecting Mark Colors in Braille from the Run JAWS Manager dialog box where JAWS would use the Custom Highlight Assign instead. Selecting Mark Colors in Braille now works as expected. * You can now perform commands that include the SPACEBAR directly from a Focus braille display. For example, ALT+SPACEBAR to open the System menu, or INSERT+SPACEBAR to activate the JAWS keystrokes layer. * Updated the INSERT+W help message for the Webinar training room plug-in to remove references to keystrokes that are no longer supported. * If Quick Settings is open in another window, resolved an issue where pressing INSERT+V while in the JAWS window, the title of the Quick Settings dialog box was not getting announced as it gained focus. * Added long Keyboard Help messages for the list of onMouseOvers (INSERT+WINDOWS KEY+SEMICOLON), next clickable element (SLASH), prior clickable element (SHIFT+SLASH), and list of clickable elements (INSERT+CTRL+SLASH) keystrokes. To hear the long description for a command, press the keystroke twice quickly. * Added an Include Dimensions option to the General Options group in Quick Settings. When selected, JAWS will announce dimensions for graphics embedded in documents or Outlook messages where Word is the editor. * Resolved an intermittent issue saving default settings in Settings Center. * Resolved an issue where bullets were not displaying correctly in braille with certain documents opened in WordPad. * Addressed an issue with the Reuters Research It lookup source where only five stories were listed even though the results page says top 10 stories. Research It now lists all 10 stories. * When pressing BACKSPACE in an edit field of a Java application, JAWS now reads the character being deleted. * When opening the Select a Voice Profile dialog box (INSERT+CTRL+S), resolved an issue where the currently selected profile was not displayed on the screen. IBM Lotus Notes * Addressed an issue of JAWS not reading section titles while navigating in a note. Microsoft Excel * The help messages that are spoken when entering or editing a formula are now also shown on the braille display as flash messages. * Addressed an issue with the Input message edit field in the Data Validation dialog box not being spoken and brailled correctly. * Resolved issues changing between manually defined column and row titles to automatically defined column and row titles determined in the Excel spreadsheet. * Resolved an issue in Excel 2007 and 2010 where the content of text boxes was not being displayed in the Virtual Viewer. There were only blank lines where the text in the box should have appeared. * When navigating the list of functions for inserting into a spreadsheet, addressed an issue where JAWS was not speaking or displaying in braille the function description. * Addressed an issue with editing the contents of a text box. * If you want to manually set column and row title reading, you no longer have to open the Quick Settings dialog box multiple times to configure these options. * If you add a hyperlink to another worksheet in the same spreadsheet, resolved an issue where JAWS would not announce the hyperlink if it was in a merged cell. Microsoft Internet Explorer * Improved navigating frames on a Web page that contain a Long Description attribute. This was addressed for both Internet Explorer and Firefox. * Resolved issues creating a word list (CTRL+INSERT+W) on Web pages in both Internet Explorer and Firefox. * Addres

I pleased to let you know that we have found a solution and in the 3rd Public Beta of JAWS 13, due out soon. The new solution, and the ability to alt tab back to results for the ResearchIt lookup, is a great improvement I think you will appreciate. It is not clear yet what the effort will be to get this into a JAWS 12 hotfix after 13 is released. We will have to determine the effort and risk in porting this new solution back to 12.

Constantly issuing fixes for Research It every time a web page layout changes is counter-productive, and detracts from the time FS's software development team can devote to more important issues. To be perfectly blunt, Research It does not enhance the basic functionality of JAWS and only makes it more bloated and prone to problems.

Apparently, for 32 bit users, the latest patch works just fine. But it doesn't for 64 bit people, or at least it didn't for me. Please see details below. 1. Tried automated download and received a message: "DOWNLOAD ERROR. Cannot install the Jaws Patch. Recommend perform a repair and try again. Okay." 2. Went to the site and downloaded an entire new Jaws 12. Received the same message. 3. Uninstalled Jaws and re-installed from my original disk. Did not receive a warning but the system wouldn't work at all. Couldn't open e-mail messages. Couldn't read documents. All cursors locked in position and not moveable. 4. THE FINAL SOLUTION! Got this idea from David Ferrin. Performed a System Restore and took the time back a couple of days before the problem event. Jaws went back to normal operation but started pestering me every time about downloading the latest updates. Finally, checked the box indicating I don't want to be notified of any updates. 5. Reported the problem in detail to Freedom Scientific in an e-mail message. I received the automated confirmation so I know that the message was received. CONCLUSION: It appears that Freedom fixed the issues with the 32 bit version but there is still a problem with the 64 bit patch.
