None of the other navigational techniques I know work either - tab, etc. I enabled the JAWS ribbon menu for ease of access. Any ideas how to unlock the dropdown grid's secrets? More generally..I see where not using the JAWS ribbon menu feature can be advantageous to one who can first letter navigate. Is the ribbon menu feature just the equivalent of training wheels?

Bottom line, I don't like extensive tabbing or arrowing so maybe going cold turkey to the pure ribbon view may work

Is there a way to get an announcement if messages are collapsed in WLM? And, after opening all of the messages that now have been expanded how do you collapse them again? Thanks.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS install problem.
I just received a new computer with Win 7. I tried to install JAWS by putting the disc in the tray and I got no response. Usually, it would start running. My sighted wife could not get the disc to run either. So, she went on to the Freedom Scientific web page to downloads. She clicked on 14 demo and it came up JAWS 15 She clicked on it and hit save When she tried to run it, a voice came up and said that this program could not run on this platform and I should contact Freedom Scientific.

I'm looking for any tips on how to configure/negotiate/use Win 7 and JAWS. Thanks again. Rich For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] What works with Win 7?
Please forgive me for bombarding you all with all of these questions. I have many questions and I am trying to have separate subject lines for each question instead of a list on one message. With Win 7, which version of Internet Explorer works best? Google Chrome or no Chrome. What about Firefox versions? If I purchase Outlook, is there anything I need to be aware of? Thank you.

Thanks so much! - Original Message - From: Scorpio scorpio...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Saturday, October 19, 2013 9:58 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling NVDA Hi Rich, there are various ways to accomplish this task. The temporary way is to bring up the application manager using control+shift+escape, ensure that you are in the processes tab by using control+tab to move through the tabs, tab to the list of processes currently running on your computer, and, press the letter N to move directly to NVDA. The good thing is that Windows 7 offers a simple view of your processes, so you'll know exactly what they are. NVDA is labeled as NVDA, so, when you land on it, press alt+E to stop the process. A dialog box will ask you to confirm your descision, so simply press enter on the yes button, and the process will shut down. In any case, whether it's NVDA or Narrator, the press of the N key will identify the culprit. One thing you should beware of is that you end the process on the correct NVDA. This may be trivial to you, but I'll sometimes get mistaken when my screen reader reads out NVDA and NVDIA, as my speech for functionality is quite high, so I tend to overlook small things like the I inserted just before the A in NVDA. This process you should leave alone, as this is your graphics card process, and your computer, and possibly Jaws may need it to run. In any case, if it is NVDA, make sure that your screen reader actually says NVDA, and not NVDIA. Once it's shut down, press your Windows key+R to bring up the run dialog box, and type the word msconfig in the edit field and press enter. In the resulting dialog box, press control+tab to go to the services tab. Once there, tab to the list of programs, though this may not be necessary as your screen reader should place you directly on the services tab. Once there, arrow through the services looking for the application, NVDA or Narrator and uncheck the box accompanying it. Again, make sure you uncheck the box for NVDA and not NVDIA. Once this is done, press control+tab again to go to the start-up tab, and see if you find the program in that tab as well. You shouldn't, but better safe than sorry. If you do find it there, simply uncheck the box that corresponds to it and tab to the apply key. Press the spacebar, then shift+tab to the ok button and press the spacebar once more. At this point, you may or may not be presented with a dialog box asking you to re-start your computer. Regardless of whether you are presented with one or not, re-start your computer to make sure the change took effect. Once your computer comes back up, you'll be presented with a dialog box letting you know that you're currently running your computer in selective start-up mode, simply tab to the checkbox that says, don't show me this dialog box, or start the configuration manager when I boot into Windows, check this box, than tab to the ok button and press the spacebar to make it go away. Good luck, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Internet Download Manager (IDM) is an easy to use tool to increase download speeds by up to 500 percent, resume and schedule downloads. According to the opinions of IDM users Internet Download Manager is a perfect accelerator program to download your favorite software, games, cd, dvd and mp3 music, movies, shareware and freeware programs much faster! Internet Download Manager has a built-in download logic accelerator that features intelligent dynamic file segmentation and safe multipart downloading technology to accelerate your downloads. Unlike other download accelerators and managers that segment files before downloading starts, Internet Download Manager segments downloaded files dynamically during download process. Internet Download Manager also reuses available connections without additional connect and login stages to achieve better acceleration performance. Comprehensive error recovery and resume capability will also restart broken or interrupted downloads due to lost connections, network problems, computer shutdowns, or unexpected power outages. Simple graphic user interface makes IDM user friendly and easy to use. Internet Download Manager has wide customization capabilities, downloadable skins, visual XP styles, multilingual interface, and supports proxy servers, FTP, HTTP and HTTPS protocols, firewalls, file redirects, cookies, directories with authorization, ZIP preview, categories, MP3 audio and MPEG video content processing and a large number of server platforms. IDM integrates seamlessly into Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape, AOL, MSN Explorer, Opera, and Mozilla browsers to automatically handle your downloads. You can also drag and drop files or use Internet Download Manager from command line. Internet Download Manager can dial your modem at the set time, download the files you want, then hang up or even shut down your computer when it's done. The site grabber feature of Internet Download Manager not only lets you download required files that are specified with filters, for example all pictures from a web site, or all audio files from a web site, but it also lets you download subsets of web sites, or complete web sites for mirroring or offline browsing. It's possible to schedule multiple grabber projects to run them once at a specified time, stop them at a specified time, or run periodically to synchronize changes. Actually, A Jaws-script has written for IDM but I think It's not necessary. For more information and download IDM You can visit www.internetdownloadmanager.com.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Quotes, Stopping Jaws From Reading Them
I think you could also go in to dictionary manager and replace quotes with silence, by using the space bar as the replacement word.

In your case insert quotes for apostrophy. You can change how Jaws speaks the apostrophy in the Settings Centter default all applications by doing the following: 1. Press Insert + 6, on the number row above the main keyboard to open the Settings Center, press, Control, shift, + D, to open default all applications. 2. Arrow down to, Punctuation closed press right arrow to open. 3. Arrow down to customize punctuation press the spacebar to open. Don't press enter here, if you press enter instad of the spacebar, the Settings Center will close. 4.A. When making changes in the customize punctuation list, if you do not want Jaws to speak/recognize a particular punctuation mark you want to choose the all selection. You will have 4 radio buttons to arrow up or down through. They are none, some, most, all. In these selections they work backwards than what you would think. For example; If you choose none for the dollar sign, Jaws will speak / recognize every dollar sign in whatever you are reading. On the other hand, if you choose the all radio button, Jaws will not speak / recognize any dollar signs. 4.B. After you pressed the spacebar on customize punctuation, you are now in a list of punctuation marks. Arrow down the list and when you have the punctuation mark you want to change highlighted, tab 1 time to the radio buttons that I mentioned earlier. 5. Keeping in mind what I mentioned earlier about these choices working backwards, select the box in this list, in your case not wanting any apostrophy's spoken, choose the all button. 6. Now, if you want to make a change to another punctuation mark, shift tab back to the list and highlight a different punctuation mark, tab back to the radio buttons and select the box you prefer. 7. After you are done making your changes tab to okay and press the spacebar. 8. Tab to apply, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar to save your changes close the Settings Center. Now, I hope that you are not as confused as I am after typing all of this. LOL Hope this has helped. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

Rich,
I save emails first to my docs, then after the flash drive is inserted in
it's port*USB* usually, I then find that email I saved, I then press Alt
N,R
if it's the sea gate, if it's the thumb drive it's L for name of the thing
which is a Lexor or however it's spelled.
This copies it to that drive.
The alt N is shortcut key for send to, the R is removable drive F for my
computer, note this might be different on yours, but the process should be
the same.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Copy to flash drive
Hi Rich,
Below are steps on saving from OE to your My Documents / Recipes folder.
I
am only using the Recipes folder as an example but, if you're going to
save
emails from different folders in OE it would be easier to make folders
with
the same titles in My Documents to keep them in the same order, so to
speak.
Here are the steps:
Using Outlook Express below is 1 set of steps on how to save an email to
the
Recipe folder in your My Documents folder.
1. With the email you want to save highlighted / selected, press Alt + F,
for the file menu, arrow down to save as, press enter. Or press Alt +
F,
then press the letter, A.
2. A dialogue opens you can change the name of the message here, if you
want.
3.A. Tab 1 time to the save as combobox right here this is where you
choose which format you want to save the email as. Your choices are Mail
*.eml, Text file *.txt, Unicode Text File *.txt. Personally I save
email
in both .EML .TXT formats but, you can't save them in both formats at
the
same time so, you have to save the email 2 times, once in each format.
3.B. We will use the .EML format for now. So, you are in the save as
combobox, arrow down to Mail *.eml, tab 3 times to the save in combobox,
arrow up or down to the My Documents folder, with the My documents folder
highlighted, tab 3 more times to, folder view list view. This is a list
of
folders in your My Documents folder.
4. Arrow down to your Recipe folder press enter to open the folder, now
tab to the save button, press the spacebar. Your recipe has now been
saved in your Recipe folder. If you want to save this same email as a
text
file, your Recipe folder has already been selected so, you don't have to
navigate to the Recipe folder.
5. Press Alt + F, then press the letter, A, tab 1 time to the save as
combobox, press the letter T, for text file or arrow down to the Text File
*.txt option, tab 1 time to save, press the spacebar or enter. When you
are in the save as combobox you can use first letter navigation instead of
arrowing to your format of choice.
Go look in your recipe folder to see if your messages have been saved the
way you want them saved. Saving email outside of your email client takes
some practice getting used to but, it is well worth the extra work. If
your email client was to become corrupted for whatever reason, having your
email saved outside you won't lose your emails. Personally I don't have
any
emails saved in Outlook Express.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
Mike

I am only using the Recipes folder as an example but, if you're going to save emails from different folders in OE it would be easier to make folders with the same titles in My Documents to keep them in the same order, so to speak. Here are the steps: Using Outlook Express below is 1 set of steps on how to save an email to the Recipe folder in your My Documents folder. 1. With the email you want to save highlighted / selected, press Alt + F, for the file menu, arrow down to save as, press enter. Or press Alt + F, then press the letter, A. 2. A dialogue opens you can change the name of the message here, if you want. 3.A. Tab 1 time to the save as combobox right here this is where you choose which format you want to save the email as. Your choices are Mail *.eml, Text file *.txt, Unicode Text File *.txt. Personally I save email in both .EML .TXT formats but, you can't save them in both formats at the same time so, you have to save the email 2 times, once in each format. 3.B. We will use the .EML format for now. So, you are in the save as combobox, arrow down to Mail *.eml, tab 3 times to the save in combobox, arrow up or down to the My Documents folder, with the My documents folder highlighted, tab 3 more times to, folder view list view. This is a list of folders in your My Documents folder. 4. Arrow down to your Recipe folder press enter to open the folder, now tab to the save button, press the spacebar. Your recipe has now been saved in your Recipe folder. If you want to save this same email as a text file, your Recipe folder has already been selected so, you don't have to navigate to the Recipe folder. 5. Press Alt + F, then press the letter, A, tab 1 time to the save as combobox, press the letter T, for text file or arrow down to the Text File *.txt option, tab 1 time to save, press the spacebar or enter. When you are in the save as combobox you can use first letter navigation instead of arrowing to your format of choice. Go look in your recipe folder to see if your messages have been saved the way you want them saved. Saving email outside of your email client takes some practice getting used to but, it is well worth the extra work. If your email client was to become corrupted for whatever reason, having your email saved outside you won't lose your emails. Personally I don't have any emails saved in Outlook Express. Hope this helped. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

[JAWS-Users] Copy to flash drive
Hi all,
I have XP and 14.0 and Outlook Express.
I want to copy around 100 e mails that I have in various folders in Outlook
Express and paste them on to a flash drive/thumb drive. {same thing?}.
Do I just put the flash in to the USB port go to e mail, select all of the
desired messages, then paste them in to the appropriate drive/device in My
Computer?
This seems easier than trying tocopy them in to My documents.
Thanks for any help.

Use up arrow key to the options menu item and press enter key. Use CTRL+Tab until focus moves to the View tab of the dialog box.

Also confirm that the checkbox for Show All or Show All formatting isn't checked. (I am not at a system with a version of Word earlier than 2007 on it so I am trying this from memory). Tab to the Apply button if there is one and use spacebar on it. Tab to the OK button and use spacebar. If there is no Apply button then just use the OK button. If you are using Word 2007 or later then use Alt+F and then use up arrow to the Options item and press enter key. Use down arrow key to the Display tab.

If you have any messages from them in your Deleted items, restore them to your message list.) Tangentially - although it may not be, have you got some additional message rule in place that might be deleting or removing their messages - before they are downloaded? Almost finally, it may be that your OE is corrupted in some way, although I've never heard before of this problem being due to such. Now, Google is your friend here, as in many other hard cases, so you might want to think a bit and come up with a suitable search for your problem to do on Google - like: blocked sender removed but still on blocked senders list - something like that.

The name is removed from that list but when I restart the computer, the sender name has returned. Plus, I get a mail demon something when I am trying to e mail JAWS, and get a message the e mail can not go through. I am now trying from another computer. I got the e mail address from the JAWS site and clicked on it there as well as trying in my address book. Thanks.

I did press the remove button then OK. After the reboot, the sender reappeared. Thanks.

On the Blocked Sender, Do you press the Remove BUTTON? You press this before you press OK. The sender might have more than one email address, each of which you would remove if you want to completely remove [unblock] the sender from your Blocked Senders List. - Original Message - From: Rich Hamel rcha...@bellsouth.net To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2013 1:03 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Changing block sender in O E.
