[JAWS-Users] very basic Q about how to adjust jaws reading rate while in another app TIA!

2012-11-09 Thread Ronnie B202
Using jaws 8, how can I control the speed of jaws reading, while in
another program like notepad? Plus I'm trying to help someone with the
same problem,  with a higher version of jaws (she doesnt know
version), and jaws is not on her task bar or system tray like in my
version, so I can't even get into the jaws app window.

We're both using desktops, mine xp hers win 7. I can get the verbosity
menu by pushing jaws V, but I can't find anything RE speech rate
there.

Thanks in advance for any help here.

Ronnie

[JAWS-Users] I need help with jaws scripts for skype 3.8, please

2012-04-17 Thread Ronnie B202
I need help with jaws scripts for skype: I installed 'jaws Revision
653b', which is supposed

to support skype ? up to 3X with jaws 7 to 10, and I'm running skype
3.8, with Jaws 8.0, and

Win XP

So it compiled fine, but when I try to access the most important
function the 'jaws Skype

script manual', as instructed by pressing jawskey twice + F1 I get a
clearly unconfigured

window
text below

***

JAWS may not recognize this control.
To show JAWS what type of control it is, press JAWSKey+7.
To see more technical information on the control, press Control+JAWSKey+F1.

*when I press JAWSKey+7 I get

skype.jcf jaws configuration manager classes

new class assign classes
*edit field*
TMainUserList
***

I recompiled with no luck...

Please does anybody know what went wrong here? And or where I can get
a text copy of the

'jaws Skype script manual' 'jaws Revision 653b', or even some tutorial
on how to use the

script features?

Any solutions welcomed...Thanks in Advance!

[JAWS-Users] IE 6, driving me crazy...

2011-03-30 Thread Ronnie B202
Hi my IE 6 just stopped funtioning as a browser anymore, it won't load
URL's, and just tells

me to upgrade to IE 8.

I'm running JFW 8, on an XP. I heard Jaws 8 doesnt work well with IE
8, but I may not have

an option anymore. I'd like to avoid spending a grand to upgrade Jaws
if I can get IE

functional, as a browser, once again. Preferably not using a system
roll back, if possible,

as I just installed about 5 new apps, and wouldnt want to open that can of

worms..suggestions are welcome. I'd upgrade to IE 8, if it's as
functional as firefox, which

is my only way I can brows right now, however, Firefox has its
limitations, it doesnt play

youtube for me, where IE 6 would, or at least the audio...

Would i get much access at all using JFW 8, with IE 8?

[JAWS-Users] Winamp is giving me the silent treatment...

2011-03-30 Thread Ronnie B202
Hi listers,
I'm having a problem with Winamp, I can't find the version, as usual
menus have been removed, or hidden. It seems like it's been updated
without my agreement. The main problem is out of the blue, it stopped
outputting audio, as if it is in mute mode, or something similar. I
was just browsing through a folder listening to a few mp3's, and it
just stopped playing the audio, though, it is playing the track, but
no audio is produced.

Jaws reads the track times, so I know it's playing, and I played the
same tracks in Windows Media Player, with no problem. I wasn't even in
winamp when this problem happened, I was in a folder, and winamp was
minamized, so I don't know how I changed any settings.

I'm running JFW 8, and Xp, and I generally avoid app updates, as my
old version of Jaws makes more things less accessible.

Please let me know how to 'unmute', or undo what I did, or what the PC
did without my permition. TIA!
Ron
