Hi David, The only problem with this is that the link for the converter takes you to a page of German. Jon -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Griffith Sent: Wednesday, November 25, 2009 3:35 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Using FS Reader to read mp3 Audio Books Dear list I offer this tip. Experimenting with the full version of FSReader that comes with Jaws 11 I have found that it is very good at reading mp3 audio books. In particular the capacity to increase reading rate with control page up is better than any other software that I have come across for this feature. Unlike other solutions for accelerating playback the distortion level is low. It seems a bit like having the Victor Reader Stream reading capacity on your PC. As I understand it, even if you download and install only the demo version of Jaws 11 you will get the full version of FSReader. Of course FSReader will not normally read mp3 audio books as it looks only for daisy content. However I have found an easy way to convert a folder of mp3 files into a Daisy book that FSReader will open and read. The first step is to copy the folder of mp3 files you want to convert into an easy place to find on your PC. I copied a book onto my C drive and renamed the folder daisy. Now download the free Daisy book Generator from http://jaapvanlelieveld.xs4all.nl/daisy.htm Install the Daisy Book Generator and run the program from your programs menu. The program is a very simple command line program. There are no menus or buttons. Simply type in the path of the folder you want to become a Daisy Book and then press enter. In my case this is C:\daisy It seems impossible to copy and paste a long path into the program which is why I suggest you copy the folder you want to convert into an easy to type location. Press enter if you get any warning messages from the program about the filenames you have in your folder. The program will then start converting your folder of mp3 files into a daisy book. The program will prompt you when this is completed and then pressing enter again will close the program. Now you will find that FS Reader will recognise this folder as a daisy book and play the contents.

Hi, Here's an idea I have had for some time. I am one who sometimes navigates by paragraph - ctrl+DownArrow to read next paragraph; ctrl+UpArrow to read previous paragraph. However, say I want to read the current paragraph, which is not the same thing as reading line by line. (think of this as if you were reading a news story: and you want to 'read that again', something that flagged your attention in the paragraph you are reading but before you proceed onward, you have to repeat to make sure you apprehend it right.) Currently, there is no single keystroke for 'reading current paragraph' or going to the beginning of the paragraph and scrolling it - in Windows terms. I know that the ctrl and arrow keys are Windows movement keys. But people move by paragraph because that's how they want to read or view the writing. perhaps something - a script - could be done with JAWS to make this 'read current paragraph' possible? I hope that makes sense. This lack in Windows is something I've noticed for a long, long time; and something I now think should - and quite easily could - be corrected.

However, you can have both realspeak sapi 5 and solo direct installed on one computer, as I use the sapi 5 with Kurzweil and can also now access the solo direct via jaws. But the solo direct is proprietary, so you cannot use that with e.g. Kurzweil or narrator.

I was able to update from the first to the current build of JAWS 10 with no problems. The other features are working great, particularly autoforms mode. I do, however, have a slight issue, but I think this is because I have the RealSpeak SAPI5 synthesizers installed. Basically, although I installed RealSpeak Solo Direct I can't see them in my list of voice profiles. I restarted JAWS, and even my PC, and they're still not there. Do I need to remove the SAPI5 version first before I can see them? Please advise. Otherwise all is well.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 10 & notepad
Hi Gary, Actually, the settings are for Notepad, not for mail. I say this because and I quote you message below: "You suggested that I should make sure Word Wrap is checked while in an open message> Also, I know it's probably the first suggestion you got but have you made sure the Notepad application is running maximized with alt plus space followed by X? If all of these things don't work then I lean toward something display-related such as background and the like.

I made sure Word Wrap is checked. You also said that I should go to the configuration manager under the Text option and make sure enhanced is unchecked. I went to the JAWS Configuration Manager and found "Enhanced Edit Support" in the Text Processing Dialog. I made sure that it was unchecked. Is this the setting you mentioned? I'm new to JAWS and I could have easily misunderstood you. I get stuttering when I try to read by line or character. Maybe I should keep playing with other settings along with the ones you mentioned. Regardless, I appreciate your help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Muting JFW
Hi, You can certainly mute JFW by: 1. Bringing up the Jaws Verbosity Dialog with Jawskey plus V. 2. Hit the "End" key to go to the bottom of the list or tree. 3. You will hear: "Synthesizer Speech On". Pressing the spacebar hear mutes your synth. Pressing the spacebar again brings speech back. This is certainly worth a look if someone has already looked at the volume control sliders and mute check boxes.

Hi Mike, Notice the "no" in the code, it turns off all balloon notifications.

Save it where you wish to. If you have Vista you can route JAWS to PC, do a page up, and arrow down to the line where the save to location is found to know where the file is being saved. Turn on PC cursor and then tab to the save button and press spacebar. 9. The dialog box that appears will show the first problem found. You can route JAWS to PC, do a page up and then arrow down a line at a time to hear the problem. After putting on PC cursor you can then tab to the "fix issue" button to resolve the problem being shown, or use tab key to move to the "fix all selected issues" button and press spacebar. 10. A dialog will appear asking if you are sure you want to fix either the issue or all selected issues. Press spacebar on OK. 11. If you chose to fix all issues then in the resultant dialog you will be shown how many issues were fixed. Use JAWS cursor to read the information. Turn on PC cursor and use tab key to the close button and press spacebar. 12. You can then close CCleaner. If it doesn't close with Alt-F4 or through a system menu then close it with the JAWS cursor. Route JAWS to PC, do a page Up to the top of the window, arrow down once and press home key. use CTRL-left arrow to move to the last graphic on the first line of the window and do a left mouse button click simulation (slash on the number pad if using a desktop configuration or caps lock with the number 8 on a laptop configuration). You might run the scan again and find additional items. Take care.

Hi, One more thing for the person with the slow Jaws startup, try getting a copy of bootvis, you'll have to Google for it. It's a Microsoft program for perking up your PC's startup. Run it and on the Trace menu, choose optimize system and press enter. This will reboot your pc and organize the files for faster startup. You've done everything else I can think of other than to disabling something you've recently added that runs at startup if any.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Computer with broken fan
Hi, You're talking about the chip fan and they too can beoiled in the same way. There is however another one, in the power supply. Again you should have some basic knowledge about electrical things and a fair bit of mechanical aptitude. The power supply dismounts from the case with 4 screws, the cover of the supply comes off with 4 flat-head Phillips screws, the fan is mounted to the back of the supply behind the grill with 4 plastic-tapping screws of a fairly large diameter. Taking out a supply means disconnecting the 40-pin motherboard connector, probably a 4-pin p4 connector, all power cables to your hard drive and floppy, and well make sure you know what you are doing before trying this at home. Once you've done it a couple of times it's cake.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Computer with broken fan
Hi, If you are into fixing things, many of these fans just need a drop of lubricant. There is usually a sticker on the back side of the middle of the fan under which is either the backend of the motor shaft or a small rubber plug covering the former. Removing the plug, oiling appropriately and putting the sticker back on should get you a couple more years of fan life. Purists wil say "buy a new one", they are cheap online. It has worked for me in many an emergency.

Re: [JAWS-Users] microsoft word question
Hi, If you reread her original email you will see that you missed part of her description of the problem. Jaws is announcing file position as she downarrows through the list and is skipping in increments of three. If she was only showing one file type, Jfw would still number them correctly i.e. "1 of 2", "2 of 2" and so on. One of the first responses explained that this is either a grid or icon view being displayed and that right arrowing would show the rest of the files. In other words,3 files per line are displaying with 1 through 3 on the top line, 4 through 6 on the next line and so on. So naturally, downarrowing on file one will bring you to file 4, and then seven with the view set up this way.

That is no longer possible with version 10. I'm assuming that FS has replaced this keystroke with another one, and so I'm wondering what it is. As of now, I'm forced to use my Jaws cursor to go to the top of the window and click on the maximize button, which, needless to say, is a pain the royal backside. Is there a keystroke that will maximize the window or allow me to access the system menu on a window in order to perform what I want to do? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 7
Hi Fina, Just booted up the 98 machine to make sure where all these things live because it has been a long time. Go into ControlPanel, then display. On the first tab, the backgrounds tab set the wallpaper to none by hitting the home key in the list. You probably want to press control plus tab to go to the next tab which is screensaver and do the same there. Next go on over to the web tab with a couple more "control plus tabs" and make sure "view my desktop as a web page" is unchecked. That should silence the chatter.

[JAWS-Users] My Alva woes solved
Hi, This is rather long but since it may help someone else, I'll explain what I did with this display. It turned out to be an Alva Delphi 40 cell after all. The German in the menue doesn't seem to matter as it works perfectly fine with Jaws10 after some tinkering. I didn't have a serial cable with both female ends so I tried a parallel cable but Jaws only offered com ports when adding a display. I modified the jfw.ini file replacing auto (which I tried first) with lpt1. That did the trick. I do get "the selected port is invalid" message if I look under advanced braille display options but since I don't want to change the port, I just continued setting options for the display. Maybe this will help someone with a similar situation.

[JAWS-Users] USB blocks boot
Hi, I've actually got a couple pc's around here on which I must shut off the external drive or unplug the usb cable before I am allowed to reboot successfully.

OK, this sounds serious enough that I'd get someone to look at your screen when you're starting your computer and see what kind of message pops up. An external drive should not interfere with the booting up of a computer. And if it is the boot order as others have suggested, you'll need to have someone who really knows computers fix this for you. I've just never heard of a USB port being first in line in the boot, or startup sequence. But anything is possible.

Re: [JAWS-Users] WinAmp and Value.
Hi, If you select "Direct sound output" as your driver (control p for Winamp preferences,, o until you hear output, and tab through the dialog), you can get better independent control of volumes. In other words, this separates your Jaws and Winamp playback volumes so that what you do in Winamp does not affect JFW's volume level. You can always boost the Winamp volume in the EQ with ~ and decrease it again with the tab key, assuming the EQ is active (toggle the EQ's on/off state with n from the EQ window, alt plus g to toggle the EQ window open or closed). Control plus tab will cycle among open Winamp windows. I hope this helps a bit.

That is not the problem. I did so already. I even did it using the value in the speaker and the only thing went up was jaws.
