Re: [JAWS-Users] iTunes 12.4 my observations so far
Don't hold your breath! Then again, why do we as customers to Apple products always have to wait weeks to months for updates to make something work that should work immediately! I don't end up where you do when iTunes opens either.

The newly designed iTunes store is awesome, the page's load very fast, no waiting or hesitation, same when you press the backspace key to go back to the previous page, works great. The only thing that needs to be fixed by Freedom Scientific is to make Jaws see the visited links. I was able to buy several albums with no issues, they downloaded a lot faster as well. So I give iTunes an A-minus for the store, would have been an A+, if Jaws announced the visited links. Now when you first open iTunes, for example on my computer, iTunes opens to the Artists list. As I use the down arrow key, Jaws reads what seems to be some kind of a code before the name of the artist, Jaws reads: "Description L1." As I down arrow through the list of artist, sometimes I must press the down arrow two times and then up arrow one time, and then down arrow again to show the next artist, or when I use first letter navigation, I must do the same thing to get Jaws to read the next artist, so they get a C-minus. As you press the F6 key to jump across the interface, they have changed things as well. I personally think when Freedom Scientific makes the necessary changes to Jaws for the new iTunes interface, I think we will like it much better than any previous version of iTunes. I am still playing around with iTunes 12.4; I am going to leave it on my computer. I am looking forward to the corrections from Freedom Scientific to the Jaws 17 program that will allow us to take advantage of this new interface.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Internet security
The tech who did my hard drive installation put Trent Micro Security on this computer.

Re: [JAWS-Users] some help with outlook please?
Before my computer crash I had Outlook 2010 doing exactly what you want, however, since Windows 10 installation and new hard drive I can't get this working again. It is frustrating, either it won't work, or I have missed something. I'd love to have it back but am not holding my breath.

Hi everyone, hope you guys are all having a great day. So I was going to install windows live mail on my windows 10 laptop running jaws 17 (not latest version), but I was told for it to work correctly I have to have reading pain turned off. My problem is this and I'm sure a lot of you can relate to this. I belong to 10 or so mailing lists, and that means hundreds of messages per day. The mail client I'll be using needs to provide the following workable feature with jaws. I need jaws to read the senders name, subject, and then to proceed to read a couple of lines of the body of the email, so I can decide weather to delete the message or to open it for further reading. Right now I'm using outlook on windows 7 laptop with jaws 15 and this feature works great. As I'm scrolling through the messages in my imbox, I here for example message unread, from mike, subject help with ie11, and then the date. Then I hear jaws say for example hi guys I'm a beginner with ie11. At that point I can decide weather to just hit my delete key or enter to open it. This makes it easy to go through hundreds of messages per day. I'm sure a lot of you know where I'm coming from. So my problem is this windows laptop doesn't have outlook and I've visited the office.com website and either I'm having a brain fart, or the website is screwed up, or it's just not offered. I want to buy outlook email client and nothing else. I don't want the office 365 subscription but I can't figure it out. Can anyone help? Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

Below is a complete list of my group's tutorials. Yes, I will help any way that I can on this list, but I have to preserve my OneDrive group download page for my group members.

My group is a teaching and learning group along with answering questions and troubleshooting problems that people are having with w-10 and Jaws. You don't understand, my audio files are 30 to 60 minutes long. David said they are too big to put on his Jaws users web site. I also devote a small section of my group to poetry and Christian writings, written by me and my members.

Like, this WLM tutorial. I don't know what happened to make you stop sharing all your great tutorials with this list, but you used to post the link to your Google Drive for everyone to view, but not anymore.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Wavy line under the word in MS word
Text analyzer does not detect spelling errors. Under quick settings type in search term spelling, there should be choices as to whether you want to see errors, errors and word count etc. Personally I turn these all off and use F7 to spell check at the end of a document, for me at least this is less distracting allowing the thought process to continue uninterrupted.

You are correct that it does not look for squiggle lines, but the purpose of it is to detect errors and inconsistencies in the text, so maybe it addresses spelling errors. The other thing to look into is the track changes and proof reading features in Word, as well as the JAWS setting that might make using these features tolerable.

Text Analyzer is a tool that notifies you of these errors in your document by using a spoken message or WAV file. You can configure JAWS to announce discrepancies by count, by description, or by sound while proofreading the document by line, sentence, paragraph, or Say All command. Braille users will benefit from this since a sound can be emitted before the user has time to read the entire line looking for errors. Turning On Text Analyzer Text Analyzer is off by default. To turn it on, do one of the following: a.. Use the layered keystroke, INSERT+SPACEBAR, A. By pressing and releasing INSERT+SPACEBAR, and then pressing A, the Text Analyzer can be toggled on or off. b.. Open Settings Center (INSERT+F2). In the Search edit box type "text analyzer" without the quotes. Press DOWN ARROW to move to Text Analyzer in the filtered results. Press SPACEBAR to select an alert notification. c.. Use Quick Settings (INSERT+V). The process for selecting an alert notification is the same as the Settings Center procedure described above. Keystrokes If multiple issues are identified in the document, press ALT+WINDOWS Key+I to move to the next item, or ALT+SHIFT+WINDOWS Key+I to move to the previous item. Note that these keystrokes can still be used even if Text Analyzer is off. Text Analyzer Options Use the radio buttons in this group to determine the type of alert used to indicate errors when editing or proofreading a document by line, sentence, paragraph, or Say All command. Select Indicate with Sound to play a WAV file when a formatting error is detected. Select Speak Count to announce the number of inconsistencies in the current text. Select Describe Inconsistencies for a description of the error. The default setting is off. Indicate Mismatched Symbols Select this check box to enable the detection of mismatched symbols such as parenthesis, braces, brackets, angle brackets, and quotes. If this check box is cleared, the items in the Symbols to Check group are not available. Symbols to Check Select one or more check boxes to search for mismatched parentheses, braces, brackets, angle brackets, or quotes where the equivalent opening or closing symbol is missing.

Do it the way you want but to insist others do it your way is not helping. If Freedom meant for everyone to grab the executable they would never have given us the update option.

Size: 124mm length, 80.5mm width, and 12.9mm girth, is roughly the size of a smartphone. It comes with a removable base unit, which has an HDMI port, one USB 2.0 port, one USB 3.0 port, and a DC power port. The device weighs just 200 grams (without adapter and power cord), and even features a Windows Hello fingerprint sensor it is powered by a quad-core Intel 'Cherrytrail' Atom x5-Z8500 processor clocked at 1.44GHz, with a Burst frequency of 2.24GHz. Other features include 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM, and a 32GB of eMMC storage, which you can expand via microSDXC card (up to 128GB) should you need more storage. The battery is suggested to last four hours under "casual use", the portable PC also has a Micro-USB port for charging. I think one can use this port for a headset if your headset is adapted with an adapter female 3.5 to male MicroUSB the Kangaroo runs Windows 10. The mini-PC features Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless connectivity. About a hundred US dollars or 144Canadian including shipping and taxes. I have put JAWS 17 on this and it seems to be pretty peppy. I will be testing it more this weekend to see how it works with docking station and usb keyboard and headset as well as without the docking station using Bluetooth keyboard and Bluetooth headset. Curious I am and so far it seems to be what I was looking for. There is no screen so one has to use the HDMI to connect to screen or IPad. Voice comes through when connected to screen using the HDMI port. However, I just need speakers ( no headphone jack) thus the use of the micro USB port for wired headset may be useful) and a keyboard. Voice commands will be of interest using Microsoft's answer to Apples SIRI. Most important is how jaws will work in this small unit. I suspect for simple applications all will be fine but if one opens up to much then unit may become very sluggish due to the limited 2 gig of RAM. robin -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Ferrin Sent: December 31, 2015 8:39 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17 I've only been monitoring this thread enough to make sure it is on topic, but I must admit it has got my attention.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 16 Language Changes
That is a matter of opinion! I have tried most of them for my language, US English, and in certain circumstances they work great, for everyday use, Eloquence is still my favorite, it reads punctuation I wish, raises and lowers pitch for capitalization and after 17 years of using JAWS the cadence is something I have gotten used to hearing. I have used other voices but I go back to Eloquence and probably will do so until it disappears from the program. I hated Tom years ago, Samantha is horrible, some of the others also sound like smokers, or Grandpa in Eloquence. I use Paul from Voice ware in another screen reader and he is fine except for some mispronunciations on some words. I used Paul then I had K1000 but it never worked right with Windows 7, the voices in Open Book drive me crazy after reading with hem for an hour or more. However, Eloquence in Open Book also drives me crazy if I have to read for more than a few minutes, the cadence is not the same as with JAWS, the phrasing is off, pitch seems less stable,. I used it to read a PDF converted for a church project, 288 pages more or less and I was amused by how it pronounced bible names, annoyed by the constant higher pitch for some items, have no clue why it could change pitch in the middle of a sentence, found it very distracting to be frank. With each chapter of the book taking approximately an hour to read at a high rate of speed, I wanted to scream by the time I was finished. Unfortunately, I thought that since I had premium voices from Jaws 16, that I could remove the ones Open Book used, discovered that is not the case, but I don't think I would have been any more please by Tom or Samantha which as I recall were to two main OB choices, since the program has not been updated since about 2012, I doubt that there would be choices I'd like any better. If I were to use Vocalizer Premium voices regularly in Jaws 17, it would probably be Allison or Eva, but the few days I spent with each of them sent me back to Eloquence.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: Drag and drop ...
It is obvious they don't care about accessibility of iTunes for Windows! Every upgrade creates more problems. I loved my trial with Lesey for iTunes alone it would have been worth the price but PayPal and I have a hate-hate relationship so after the trial I am back to spending way more time doing something I want to do darn it! PayPal and iTunes both pretty much are more trouble than they are worth. Even trying to open a new account to solve my issues did not work, after I read numerous pages of liability stuff I never could find the place to say I read the legalese and to continue. Might work since one shopping site I used did not work right until I actually removed Silverlight but after months of struggling I decided to wait a long time before I try the site again. Unfortunately I occasionally nee iTunes for backups and it is my preference for updating, or it was until recently when the progress I used to hear disappeared. Last update of 9.1 I did over the air because iTunes was being stubborn. The iPad is still on 9.0.2 I think and I have not updated that because I don't use it all that much these days. It is one of the original mini iPads, and on 16 GB. I keep having to remove things for an update to happen and just have not been ready to do it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Taking Jaws with me for a day
Yes, we are getting a little old, I watched the show also, along with a lot of other 1960's westerns or reruns. Now, JAWS was not even an embryo than, could you imagine for those totals out there having description for those shows when we were actually kids, whether it be some mechanism in JAWS that could describe them or the typical DVS tracts one can get today. I drove my family crazy during silences, or music asking what happened, did he shoot him, did he get shot. Sometimes I got an answer but many times I was left to figure it out or imagine it the way I wanted it to be. You can't watch a DVS on an old 1950s black a white TV, you can't stay stuck in the 20th century for software upgrades either. OK, tried to keep it somewhat JAWS related but, not successful.

I don't know the answer except that if I get the cursor on the link, using the cursor keys on a braille display will open those links.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JFW and balance of sound for headsets
I worked for 26 years after having surgery for a tumor in left ear, with reconstruction so I can hear some. I was a medical transcriptionist and I tried many things to put JAWS to my left ear so I could hear and my dictation on the right. Nothing was overly successful and required two headphones at once which was uncomfortable. The only thing that did not was trying an audible mixer, however, I got a lot of static and hum, only wore one set but it was clunky and after a couple of days I went back to having Jaws often blast me out if the dictation was low volume. I was annoyed by it, often got headaches due to it but I stayed in the job until outsourced in March this year. I even went to outsourced company but there I had more than just volume problems, everything they tried to assure me worked may have somewhat or not at all and the rest is history ... retired, bored, but not ready to jump into the medical transcription field at this point because every platform, 90% of the other activities such as payroll, filling in needed forms, being docked test scores on HIPA because they had images one needed to select and no way of knowing what they were, having to call third cousin to get into TeamViewer to assist me on more than one occasion in a six week period left me emotionally and physically ill. Husband passed in May 2014, received outsource plan in November 2014, struggled with getting applications and other issues with pre-employment solved with minimal assistance and on their time, not mine, then six weeks of always being found wanting because aspect of software just did not work put me in a very bad place. Anyone who has had a pile-up in a several month period should understand. So, I wish there was a successful way to use one headphone set and keep Jaws to one side at a volume needed not to distract but be there when needed did exist. However, I had one device that I had to hook two different earphones in, both of which needed their own volume controls, worked except for wearing two earphone at the same time for a while, until the headaches became truly unbearable. Inventors out there Dream up something with one headset, not too heavy, noise canceling with ability to control different items at their own volumes and ear and you could probably have several customers, not me so much now that I retired earlier than my original plan, but there are others who could use such a device, not Gerry rigged, packaged nicely internal mechanics, digitalization etc. to work with cord in back to plug in or connect to battery, plug in front for one earphone plug and maybe buttons or knobs for control of sides, volume, maybe tone for each side and I know some MTs who would jump for it. Keep price down, of course. Takers? Not me, I know nothing about electronics other than to plug in, connect and turn on, LOL.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws activating wrong link why?
I have noted this behavior since Jaws 16, very annoying especially if one is using arrows while reading display, I read left-handed, long story, and am a very dominant right-handed person. Tab key is on the left and that hand, especially if trying to order something is often on the display. Jaws 17 can occasionally drive me mad when I hear "edit" and then start to type and hear no ... present. Just have to get used to pressing enter first, or using the tab key, or changing a setting which could make other things not work as intended. However, I have thought I was on an order link, display shows I am as well as Eloquence, press enter and find myself in a totally different place, sometimes unable to go page back, either get JAWS lockup and can't do anything, or get a webpage error, and have to try to exit everything or just turn off the computer. Annoying to say the least, although in 17 I note the wrong link is less of a problem than it was in 16.

Accessible it may be, but it has not been so for me and I am not a computer novice. So, because it comes up so often I tried Amazon search this morning, it worked to show me sales on Kleenex Now next time I want to check local weather, it will probably give me an error since I am so used to having my zip code there that I will probably press enter without thinking!

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws SMA info
You do not take into account updates to Windows 10, or future enhancements of JAWS. Both could be minor or significant. For example, Windows 10 Edge is not really usable and why they released without accessibility in mind when it is supposedly the default browser makes no sense to me. However, in the future Microsoft may actually understand how to make accessibility work in every product they make and include it just as they include all the eye candy. Notice, I say May there. If say in a year they have actually found a way for screen readers to hook into Edge and by doing so they can offer us great accessibility, far better even that we have in IE 11, updating JAWS would be essential to those in the workforce for example. If you are going to play in technology, you need to stay at least moderately up-to-date. That said, I have not updated to Windows 10 because I am here alone with no eyes to help if I get in trouble and trust me, lately I find trouble easily. I will eventually get there but, I don't need to do that right now, so it will wait until either I have more confidence in my ability, eyes to assist, or I have no choice. It isn't happening today, probably not even before the New Year but eventually it will. I held onto Windows 98 for a couple of years after XP mainly because it was easy to fix if I had problems being able to reinstall or correct from the disks I had. I held off on Vista until I had to get a new computer. I deliberately bought a new computer about 3 months after Windows 7, but I have not touched 8, in fact, I gave away a Windows 8 computer days after my late husband passed. I bought a laptop for work last spring but, it had to have 7 on it. Right now it is totally messed up from the job I could not keep due to much inaccessible software I had been told would work, some in Silverlight, web forms that hung ... and they truly messed up the laptop. If I upgrade to 10 it will be the first one since I seldom use it, and, in fact, can only use it to a limited degree right now. One reason I don't use it is the keyboard, too flat, large trackpad in front and my arms are short. I have a cordless keyboard also but discovered that often it misinterpreted things. Anyway, I know one cannot stand still, technology moves on, I started with JAWS FOR WINDOWS Thanksgiving weekend in 1998 and I think it was version 2.0 or 3.0. The internet, JAWS itself, programs needed to communicate, work, even play have come a long way in the past 17 years, I can't imagine myself still using that first version of JAWS today. I am only recently retired, but, for me at least keeping my main screen reader up-to-date will remain a part of my toolbox for as long as I can use a computer.

Therefore, if your SMA will allow you to obtain the JAWS 17.0 release and the JAWS 18.0 release if this is the following release after JAWS 17.0. If you have a SMA for the nenxt release that enable you to get JAWS 17, you can’t not use JAWS 17 and use JAWS 18.0 for your SMA. so I guess there are many types of SMAs that can be purchased, you need to ask about which one is best for your needs!

But, was unsuccessful, because I had so many Windows 7 updates to download and install. Still having to download some today. However, here is my point. While talking to one of the MS helpers, he told me, "Well, Sir, you know that when we do the download for Windows 10, there will be a time, when there is no connection with us, and sighted assistance will be necessary." I replied, "Well, I understand at that point, I can turn on the narrator and complete it without sighted assistance." He said, "I don't think that is really the case. You need sighted assistance." Well, according to the notes from Jim Flusche, The narrator is totally useable, after the 10 install. Or did I misunderstand Jim's instructions? Two final questions: 1. Does FS send out CDs for the JAWS 17, for those of us with a SMA? 2. Would a CD be a good thing to have for starting a new Windows 10 computer, or can that be done via narrator, as well. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] I will pay someone to help me with face book with jaws
I have to be frank here, it works no better than the regular page, still cannot edit my profile to correct info, been incorrect since 2013 when it seemed to pull info from other friends. I do not live in Flagstaff, never been to either of the Dakotas, Every time I try to fix this it never works on iPhone or computer. If family did not occasionally post more than a photo here, I'd stop using it completely. Everyone seems to post photos of people they do not know for no good reason I can see, but it seems to be the only way I can communicate with some family who won't do e-mail or call. If they cannot answer with a photo or a one answer they don't communicate but then when we have a real time something they wonder why I don't post anything or yell if I have not in a while. I actually would drop it if only they would communicate in some other fashion. My profile is my biggest concern, since I can't fix errors and make them stay corrected. Stupid service if you ask me especially since there can be about 1000 photos to one actually useful message.

Re: [JAWS-Users] captcha and Firefox and internet explorer
I have it but no way to use it since I never received a code name or password, so anything I enter tells me it is incorrect. Besides, I doubt that I'd know how to use it if I could get in, I would have a year ago maybe but lately nothing here works like it should. My laptop still has stuff I can't remove from a job that we agreed was not working for me, I removed all programs but. My desktop has been sort of mixed up since my late husband passed and a cousin tried to fix it, files never seem to be where they should be, searches work or they do not. So have two computers and neither are quite like the one I had in 2013 that died. I truly am afraid to do Windows 10 with no one here, I can do most of what I need, e-mail most websites, except PayPal where I don't remember the password since it made me try about 20 times before I got one, none of what I have tried works and to change it requires a CAPTCHA which I have not been able to hear or remember long enough to get it put where it should be. I hate PayPal, CAPTCHAS and I am not particularly fond of Firefox either, it does not follow the usual conventions, book marks are often not accessible, it freezes usually when I am trying to do something important like looking at my bank stuff or just as I am checking out of a shopping site. Life sucks, my computers suck some days. Retirement is not all it was cracked up to be, especially alone. So unless you can say something truly helpful that is not call someone, sit on hold listing to music that literally makes my good ear ache after a time, or tell me about an ad in that has been totally uncooperative, please just forget I ever asked a question. Written instructions would be most appreciated, I never give out my phone numbers on an e-mail list so privately ask or tell me what you can offer, still written would be most helpful for me.

Now, whatever you have set for the current web site should only be applied when any pages on this site are open and have focus.

Read and let me know how much have you understood! Smart Navigation, More Efficient Interaction with Complex Web Pages and Applications Today and in the future, users will be faced with an increased need to work with complex web forms, tables, and even applications that run inside of a web browser. This will impact your day to day interactions with services on-line such as banking and shopping, in addition to many web apps found in both companies and government agencies. For instance, Internet Explorer can be used to log onto a Microsoft SharePoint server to collaborate with other co-workers and create and store documents. The new Smart Navigation feature is designed to make it more efficient when navigating web-based applications with the Virtual Cursor as the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW or CTRL+LEFT and CTRL+RIGHT ARROW commands move by control instead of character and word. This makes navigation such as moving across toolbars, tab strips, and navigation links more like navigating around a desktop application. Pressing the Say Character, Say Word, or Say Line commands twice quickly changes to the traditional navigation by character, word, line, sentence, and paragraph so you can review the text of the control. Smart Navigation resumes when you press ESC, or move to a different control by pressing UP or DOWN ARROW or TAB. For example, if you use the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW keys to move across a tab strip, you might hear JAWS announce something like; "Home tab selected," "Insert tab," and "Page Layout tab." If you wanted to review the items on the tab strip character by character, press the Say Character (NUM PAD 5), Say Word (INSERT+NUM PAD 5), or Say Line (INSERT+UP ARROW) commands twice quickly. You can now navigate by character or word until you press DOWN ARROW to move away from the tab strip to another control. Smart Navigation is off by default. To turn it on, do the following: Press INSERT+F2, select Settings Center, and press ENTER. Press CTRL+SHIFT+D to open the default settings file if you want to use Smart Navigation in all web browsers, or open the Internet Explorer or Firefox settings file. Type "smart navigation" without the quotes into the Search edit box. Press DOWN ARROW to move to Smart Navigation in the filtered results of the Settings Center tree view. Press the SPACEBAR to choose the Smart Navigation option you want to use. Press TAB to move to the OK button and activate it with the SPACEBAR. The changes are made and saved. Settings Center closes. Alternatively, Smart Navigation can be enabled for all web browsers through the Startup Wizard, or through Quick Settings (INSERT+V). For instance, you may want to use Smart Navigation in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. Smart Navigation offers two modes, Controls, and Controls and Tables. When set to Controls, most web-based controls, including, but not limited to, buttons, links, edit fields, list boxes, tree views, and headings, are treated as single units when navigating by character or word. Performing a Say Character, Say Word, and Say Line command twice quickly while focused on a control will switch to character and word Navigation so you can use the traditional navigation by character, word, line, sentence, and paragraph to review a control, such as the text of a button or link, in greater detail. Smart Navigation by controls automatically resumes when you press ESC, or move to another control using TAB or UP or DOWN ARROW. If you encounter a table, you will still use the table reading commands (CTRL+ALT+ARROW keys) or the Tabl

Re: [JAWS-Users] how long to do a JAWS repair?
You know, it would be easier to uninstall Jaws, download the version you want and reinstall. Has worked for me multiple times, just leave shared components alone. I deleted them once and what a mess.

I've been using Open Book's speech and the JAWS Braille driver. The problem is that Open book no longer will read continuously. Do you find that you lose any information by having JAWS read instead of using Open Book's self voicing feature? Just curious how different it will really be. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B. Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2015 7:13 PM To: Jaws-Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] Sleep Mode, Turning It Off So Jaws Can Be Used In Openbook These are steps on how you can turn sleep mode off or make any other changes in the Settings Center for any program installed on your computer without the particular / target program running. Below are steps using Openbook & turning off sleep mode as an example. When you shift + tab into the application list & find the application you want, you need to tab 1 time into the Settings Center for that application. Pressing enter on the application closes the Settings Center. So, here is how I accessed the Openbook Settings Center: 1. While in Outlook Express I pressed Insert key + 6, on the number row above the main keyboard to open the Outlook Express Settings Center. 2. I invoked the keystroke, shift + tab, to get into the application list. 3. I pressed the letter O, until I had Openbook highlighted. 4. I tabbed 1 time into the Openbook Settings Center. 5. I Typed, sleep, into the search edit field & waited a few seconds for the list to populate & arrowed down to Sleep Mode . miscellaneous, & pressed enter. 6. Now, right here the spacebar needs to be pressed to toggle the options until Jaws reports, sleep mode Disable. 7. Tab to apply, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar to save your changes & close. 8. Now start, Openbook, & press, Control + F5 to temporarily ttoggle speech off in Openbook. The, Control + F5, keystroke is a toggle, so you can invoke this keystroke to turn speech back on. With speech off Jaws will now be your screenreading program. If you want to make your change permanent, you need to go into Openbook's settings with the keystroke, Alt + G, arrow up / down to, Save the Settings, press enter, tab to the, Okay button, press enter, & press enter on the, Yes, option of the dialogue that comes up. If you don't save the settings, your prior Openbook's default settings will be used the next time you start Openbook, but Jaws will also be enabled. So, you need to put Jaws back into Sleep Mode by following steps 1 thru 7 from above, but the following option in step #6, needs to be changed to, Sleep Mode Enabled & Unload the Synthesizer. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool. Go Dodgers!

You may believe it is perfect, I never expected iTunes to cook my

occasionally.
I'd like to see what I wish to see when I open the program instead of
having to tab through a ton of places that I will never use on the
computer, I listen to music using my iPhone and speakers, not the
computer. I do, however, wish to get most updates on the computer, and
I do wish to have backups in iCloud and on my computer, occasionally,
usually weekly at least and I did prefer to remove applications I was no
longer using the computer, which is now more convoluted than it was.
If it were not for the syncing capability and the backups, I'd probably
never connect the phone to a computer.
As to the search capability, it seems broken to me and any time I can
use a real keyboard to type something in I am more satisfied, I can use
the phone but I still prefer a keyboard with good key travel and size.

I have a suggestion which might work if you are using ITunes on a computer. There is a company which has developed a set of scripts that make it easier to navigate ITunes. The web site is below. It costs $10 but it's worth every penny in my opinion. www.blindtunes.net I use ITunes only for music and many of our other members do much more with it. But some of these scripts do things like creating a list of options, navigating directly to the Search Window or to the ITunes store and so on. It's certainly worth a try. The good thing is that once you buy the original software, any future updates are free and the company definitely does try to keep up with the changes in ITunes.

Re: [JAWS-Users] WINDOWS 10, IS IT WORTH UPGRADING NOW?
Well, I am still holding off for a while, I have no one here to assist if something does go wrong, and if I ever find another job, 7 seems to be the preferred operating system, last job made me install Acrobat 9 and IE 9 also, talk about being behind. For now, Windows 7, Office 2010 and IE 11 work for my needs. Maybe in the fall or winter I may find a compelling reason to upgrade. If my late husband were here, I might have already endorsed the update. Not taking chances on losing my computer, and since I bought it last year, May 2014, not interested in buying a new one just yet. My Lenovo laptop which I bought in February does not have the power to do much with so far as I can tell, it was the one I was using for work and slower than molasses. I have disks for Windows 8, had to use 7 so have not even considered putting those on.

John, Here's my take on your questions, after having updated 2 of my computers to Windows 10 in the past week. 1 of these computers was a Windows 7 machine, and the other was an 8.1 machine. 1.We know that Jaws doesn't work with the Edge browser or with the e-mail client at this time. 2. There is a solution since Internet Explorer is also an option with Windows 10 and apparently, Windows Live Mail and Outlook do work with the new operating system. Answer for #s 1 & 2: You are right in what you are saying, but Internet Explorer does work very well with Windows 10, and so does Windows Live Mail, which I have used for years, and I have heard many saying that Outlook is working well too, so this should not be a hold back from updating. 3. Is there enough of a difference between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 to make the change worth the transition? Answer: I say yes, there is a huge difference. First, if you have had the opportunity to use both Windows 7 and 8.1, then you know the differences there, and as well, you know what you liked and disliked about both of them, this being said, imagine an operating system that takes the best from each, and combines them into one major upgrade, then, Microsoft gives it to you for free! What's not to like? Secondly, I have not found very much in Windows 10 that just does not work. Everything that I have tried so far, except for Edge and the Mail app have worked well, even Cortana workkes well, and "she" always seems to give me the information that I ask for, or perform the task that I ask her to. . 4. Will Jaws be able to work with Edge and the e-mail client later on? Answer: I say yes again. I believe that Microsoft and/or Freedom Scientific, will do what ever it takes to make both of these applications work with JAWS in the near future. It is true, that right now, they are both in an unusable state, but this was mentioned up front, and the decisions to update have still been in record breaking numbers. Mostly, I have heard only good reviews of the program to this point, and yes, there have been some who have experienced some problems trying to install the update, but many times, I believe it has been because Microsoft's recommendations were not followed during the process. I have installed the thing onto 2 of my computers so far, one of which I am about to give uto someone else to use, and I am about to install Windows 10 onto my last computer, a Lenovo desktop which I recently purchased. So far, I have not experienced any problems with updating either of my computers, and the whole process takes only about 2 hours to perform. I used narrator during both of my installations to select the "Typical installation" option, and shortly after, my computers rebooted and JAWS began speaking again. Nothing was lost in the process, just as promised. Having used Windows 10 for a little while now, I don't think that I would want to go back to 7 or 8.1. Both are great operating systems, but both are lacking in some areas that I believe are made up for in Windows 10. At any rate, this is my opinion, and I believe it counts for something, if not to anyone but me. I say to you, "Update man, you won't regret it".

Re: [JAWS-Users] New iTunes and jaws 16.
There is still difficulty in searching for apps in iTunes, would prefer to do it from computer due to real keyboard, but lately have resorted to using the virtual keyboard on phone.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Getting Stuck in Recently Visited Site List with IE 10 and 11
Yes, it is horrible, I see it almost daily! Jaws 16 and IE 11 and Windows 7 here, the whole internet experience has slowed down, lots of pages hang, sometimes one has to wait for over a minute to get it to load, sometimes it is blank and refresh will help, and it can be a page one has visited many times. I find myself cursing the slowness and my speed seems to be normal when tested. I truly dislike having to wait for several minutes to move from one spot to another, especially when trying to make a purchase. I had to reload amazon about 8 times yesterday, and trust me, I have been there a lot over the years, it only gets worse with each update in my humble opinion, and not on just one computer but my laptop also where it is actually slower, and Jaws sound vacillates between audible and sounding like I have earphones in almost from the speaker when I do not. I do not plan to upgrade to 10 immediately, eventually, probably next year some time, which means I will be on IE 11 for a long time, I note that if someone is here and Jaws is not loaded they don't get stuck, hung up, or have to start completely over, with shutdown and restart of the computer from beginning and making sure no other app is open, even then it exhibits the same behavior. I need to expand my cursing category of words to keep from boring myself throughout this clunky process. Same with Firefox I might add. I am paying for top speed DSL, tired of spending hours, many starts and restarts to find information or shop for what I need. Using the phone, as I have said previously is my very last resort and often I will decide then to not even bother. I don't understand NVDA well enough to see if it works or Window Eyes, although I have both on my computer to learn, play with. So far have not done much with either on the net, Com on JAWS, I pay really good money to keep up to date, I pay nothing for the other two, so I understand that they may not be current or that they may be slower, or that keystrokes I have used since 1998 may not be intuitive for me on other screen reading programs. Frustrated with this particular situation, computer is a year old with mega memory more than 8 Gb, a terabyte hard drive, Windows 7, IE 11, Jaws 16 latest build released, use IE and Outlook 2010 many times a day, other programs occasionally, up-to-date virus and malware protection. If this is something I need to fix in registry, I need to know, in step fashion, what to look for and what I need to change. I don't like regedit all that much, but I do feel that given proper directions I could fix a problem or delete a key, I have been there a couple of times, mostly in Windows XP years ago.

Before answering, please read my View settings after the questions because turning off the toolbars doesn't fix this: Sometimes I get stuck in the list of recently visited websites. This list begins with Address and Search using Bing (edit). Sometimes I can shift-tab or control-left-arrow out of this list and back to the webpage, but sometimes I can't. When I can't get out of this list, I try every possible arrow or tab key combination that I can think of, and I am still stuck in the list. Sometimes I can navigate out of this list to the Internet Explorer tabs, and can't get back to the actual web page from its tab. I have looked for Jaws or Internet Explorer keystrokes to get off a website tab and into the page, with no luck. In my View menu: Toolbars: the only check is by Lock the Toolbars. No other toolbar is checked, so I assume they should not be present, but it appears that the list of recent sites is definitely onscreen because I can get stuck in it. Nothing is checked under Explorer Bars. Zoom is 100% Carrot Browsing is on. I have this exact same thing happen on my home computer, also running Windows 7 64 bit.

Re: [JAWS-Users] trying to return an item to Amazon
I could find the phone number if I wanted it, I still say, it should all be accessible, even returns which I am sure they do not like.

They will often respond quickly with replacement as well as without mailing charges so as to avoid Amazon's mandates and negative reviews.Of course this will vary with the vendor and cost of the defective item. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf of Michael B.

I want to return it. I got on The site, looked up my order, went to the return portion. It asked "Why are You returning this?" Then it said there is a pop-up menu. I cannot get Jaws to read the menu; thus, I cannot fill out the form. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] modes of communications (returning item)
I have a phone can't get rid of it without dumping my internet, and I have a cell phone, however, I dislike trying to get customer service to do anything. I watch my cousin and her husband grab a phone call and spend more than 30 minutes just getting directed to the correct person, I could do a lot of things in that same period of time, read a book, clean, walk, write 20 or more e-mail, shop and buy on the internet. It absolutely annoys me to listen to someone telling the same story to five different people listen to that horrid stuff they call music and it isn't in my book, and then maybe get your issue solved to your satisfaction. I avoid it whenever possible and sit here tense and ready to toss anything at anything else when I must do it. Due to a hearing problem, hard to listen to something else while waiting. I feel like I am wasting time, even though I am now no longer working, and can waste time, I dislike doing it on something I dislike so much. Friends may call me, I may talk for hours on the phone, not all that often, but, I hate customer service phone calls.My time is as valuable as theirs. Sorry, this is definitely a hot button for me. I have had to make some of these calls since my husband passed last year to change utilities to my name ... and I usually end up angry or depressed after I have had to sit for hours and, some phone conversations have lasted more than an hour and a half trying to accomplish something that should have taken no more than 15 minutes. People tell me it is the way it is, but it does not make me like it.

Some of us don't want to spend time sitting on hold, slogging through menus and spend an hour doing something they should be able to do in minutes. I happen to be one of those persons, I hate sitting on hold, dislike the music and the advertisements, hate being transferred multiple times to finally get the right person. I'd love to have a person around who would do that kind of stuff for me, my late husband did mainly over the last years because I was working. I am not now but I want to just give up entirely after spending hours on such detritus. I want to order from the computer, communicate and walk away for a while. Given any choice at all I will use the computer over the phone for anything dealing with supposed customer support. Cousin loves the phone, thinks she gets something accomplished, I let her do it if at all possible and I spend time in another room. Customer service is, in my humble opinion usually so frustrating that I am tempted to have the phone taken out. Nothing worse than waiting and waiting for the correct person to assist and it happens all the time. Point being made is every part of a purchase or return should be accessible to everyone!
