Re: [JAWS-Users] Linked In With Jaws
It is reasonably accessible and usable with Jaws. You will need to spend some time to familiarise yourself with its lay out. I must however admit that I do not get the opportunity to spend a great deal of time there. You can navigate between headings by pressing h Features such as sending invites, messages and accepting invitations work fine with Jaws. Also, you can set up e-mail alerts to notify you when someone sends you a message or wishes to connect with you.

I know it's probably settings that need to be changed, but I don't know which ones. In control panel, I've never had luck with changing my theme. I do what I think should be done which is to be set to classic, but every time I check it, it seems to be on another theme or unsaved theme. Where can I uninstall IE 10 so my life can return to what I feel is normal for me? I've always welcomed changes in technology, but Windows7 and I have just never gotten along for some reason. This situation happened too with IE 9, but I was able to revert to 8, but I don't remember what I did because I tried so many different things. I went to the control panel and checked to have updates downloaded, but let me choose when to install, but even that didn't make much difference to Microsoft. I'm running windows7 with JAWS14 latest build. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I would like to work with IE 10 if I had a step-by-step instructional explanation regarding all necessary changes, but for now, I need to go back to IE 8. Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Computer restriction!
I had a similar issue sometime ago in Windows Vista and Outlook 2003. From memory, I had to search and install a fix from Microsoft's website. The explanation was that one can loose that registry key for a number of reasons including if you install Google Chrome by mistake which unfortunately I did.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 11 and IE 9
Yes, I have tried it without luck. The issue is not necessarily of any clutter but Jaws not recognizing the edit box at all. I have now downgraded to IE 8 and Google is working as it ought to be. Many thanks to all who very kindly replied to my query. One list member has suggested upgrading to Jaws 12 in order to fix the problem with IE 9. If this is the case, I must share my disappointment in Freedom Scientific for sinking so low by not fixing such a basic issue for Jaws 11 users. I have remained a faithful Jaws customer ever since I first used Jaws 4 in 2003 and would of course be upgrading to the latest Jaws version when we upgrade to Windows 7 in the new year but...

Depending on where you live in the world, you may be able to get a previous version of the software at a much reduced price. If you want to buy Finereader, you want to get the Professional version.

Alternatively, and Sorry, I beg to differ from Keith, as Kurzweil could do this Provided that one has set the file association for Kurzweil to open certain files, it is possible to open the file directly with Kurzweill, which then automatically sends the scanned image via it's OCR facility and prints it via the virtual printer into a file, which is then treated as a document one scans. It takes a while, as every page of the document is being OCR'D but it does work. If a file association already exists and it's not the first time on a pc that kurzweil is being used, one can open the file as follows: Select file, still using jaws, in windows explorer and go down via the applications menu to the open with, option. Go down and if kurzweil is not specifically listed, choose the other, option under that submenu. There will be more programs, but if Kurzweil is still not listed there, you'd have to set the file association via the folder/file association option via the control panel. I cannot offhand recall the exact prompts and cannot check via this pc, but where one has to set the program to open the particular type of file with, and one also has the option to set it as default or not, you have to type in the full path of the executable program as per the destination installed on your particular pc, as for some reason it doesn't recognize it if one only put in the program name as such.

If it is a scanned pdf file, jaws will in any event not be able to read it, without converting it to text, for which you will need a scanning program. If it is a pdf file, not created from graphics, you could open it with any of the later jaws versions and read it with jaws in the adobe pdf program.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Is there JAWS for XP Professional and JAWS for XP Homeor just 1 JAWS for all?
Hi Siew, As far as I know, the pro version of Jaws would work with the home edition but not the other way around or at least, this was the case when I purchased Jaws. So, if your Jaws work with XP pro you'll be just fine with the home edition. And yes, you can install Jaws without sighted assistance, when you will insert the CD into the machine it would ask you if you wish to install with the help of voice prompts or something like that. Just choose yes or press enter to use voice prompts.

Hello Perry, I am using JAWS 10 and Excel 2007. The methods might be a little different for earlier versions of Excel and/or JAWS. To hear the formula spoken use JAWS key with CTRL and function key 2. JAWS key is the big zero key on the number pad when number lock is off. If using the laptop configuration then use the caps lock key with CTRL and F2 to hear the formula spoken. If you hold down the JAWS key with CTRL key and press F2 twice, the formula will be shown in a dialog box. You can use JAWS key B to read the box or use the JAWS cursor to read it. Use escape key to dismiss the dialog. Another way to read the formula is to move to the cell that contains the formula and press function key 2 to move into edit mode. Press home key to move to the beginning of the formula and then use right arrow key if you want to read it character by character. use escape key to move out of the edit mode. If I remember correctly, in earlier versions of Excel and JAWS the command to hear the formula was just CTRL with function key 2. Holding down CTRL and pressing function key 2 twice would bring focus to the formula bar where you could use arrow keys to review the formula. Take care.

I had to buy a new pc couple days ago because my xp machine crashed. So was left with two choices, buy a new computer with vista and get on with it, or don't have a computer. might as well chop my arms off than have no computer. *smiles* I figured might as well get used to vista since I had to purchase a new machine any way. yes, I'll agree vista is different to xp, but in a lot of ways, exactly the same. you still have a desktop, you still have email, you still have menues. windows mail was outlook express, but honestly if you could use the latter then you sure can use the former. I.E is version 7 so that the same as XP. I would strongly recommend anyone wishing to go for vista, takes a look at the daisy files from freedom scientific. it does explain a lot and how to manage the new layout of the desktop, what the vista gadgets are etc. so meaning no di respect to anyone, I totally disagree with people when they say don't upgrade, it's not accessible load of rubbish and gives a total wrong impression. what is good for one might not work for another, but I would say try it out as you might find it is easier to use than what you currently have. and, you might like it. I'm sorry if this upset anyone, this was not my intention.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Outlook Send and Receive.
Hi Mandy, Try the following if you are using Outlook 2000, 2002 or 2003: 1. Open a new message in Outlook and then, bring up the view menu and arrow down to the BCC field and hit enter. Press escape to come out of the new message. Now, when you will open up a new message the BCC field would be there, after the CC field. 2. In order to automatically set your Outlook to send/receive messages, check it under tools and send and receive that it is checked to do it automatically. There is another setting which you will find under tools, options, preferences, e-mail settings, advanced settings and then check the tick box to automatically send and receive e-mails. The next tab will land you in a combo box where you can use your arrow keys to choose the interval i.e. mine is set to 1 minute.

While in Microsoft Word, use insert+V to bring up the JAWS verbosity dialog, press the letter n to move to the new lines and paragraphs indication choice and if it is not set to off then use spacebar until you get that setting. Also, you might check in the configuration manager. Use JAWS key 6 to open Word's configuration manager. Use Alt+S to bring up the settings menu. use down arrow to the text processing choice and press enter key. Use shift-tab past the OK button and there should be three or four checkboxes shown that control the indication of new lines. If any are checked then remove the checkmarks from all relevant checkboxes by using spacebar. Use the tab key to move to the OK button and press enter key. Use CTRL+S to save changes and close the configuration manager. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Maximizing a Window
Hi Victor, Don't know if you are using Vista but I have the same issue with Vista Business where the system keeps minimising the application window. Jaws 10 keeps saying no window is active, press windows key and m to go to the desktop if the window is minimised and the alt + space keystroke don't seem to work in this situation. Regards Waqas -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Victor Sent: 10 February 2009 3:42 To: Jaws Users List Subject: [JAWS-Users] Maximizing a Window Hi Folks, In previous versions of Jaws, one could press alt+spacebar to get to the system menu, where one could simply press the letter X to maximize the window. 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] Hello Waqas Chauhdry, Getting rid of greater signs in a message
Hi there, My point was that the greater than signs are there for a purpose i.e. to help a sighted reader. Now, it doesn't take long for screen reader users to make the appropriate change in the dictionary but of course, if the correspondence in question is purely aimed at vi people than it makes sense to take them out. It is my view that accessibility works both ways and sometime some vi friends forget this important principle.

Now as I am using jaws 10, I cannot go straight to the first level 3 heading on the page if there are other level one or level two headings before the level 3 heading. Why is this? It's not as much a hastle on google as I only have to hit the number 1, then the number two then the number three to get to the first search result, but it's still less efficient. It's even more complicated on other websites such as on my blog website. Just to get to my blog, which is at a level 2 heading, I have to hit a 1 and then a 2 just to get past some other preliminary stuff on my page, and then because there's another level one heading that appears before my blog begins, I have to hit the number one again and then number two again before arriving at the area of my blog. With Jaws 9 I only ever had to hit the number 2 twice and then I was at the blog. On another frequently visited website, there's about six level one headings before I come to the only heading level 2 is on the page. I cannot simply start at the top of the page and press the number to to find my place easily and quickly. I have to either use the insert f6 key and scroll through everything or i have to hit the number one six times before it will even acknowledge that the level two heading even exists. As I continue around the web, this problem keeps slowing me down every time. I've tried repairing jaws and nothing is helping the problem.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Question too the list, about the two sansom notebook computers.
You may like to consider the Samsung Q45 as well. It is only 1.8 kg in weight and comes with a 5.5 hours battery life with Intel 2.4 ghz duo core processor, 3 gig RAM and a massive 300 GB hard disk and the keypad is fantastic. I paid around £750 plus £100 for an optional three year cover here in UK for this great machine a few months ago.

The support from Jaws 10 is really great. I am using Jaws 9 but installed the demo of Jaws 10 so the support for iTunes was there. I was thinking of putting together a little tutorial for new users of iTunes but don't know if any are already available that go into the details. Anyway here is how I add songs (and books) to the iPod manually: Adding files manually to iPod Use control comma to go to the preferences in iTunes or choose it from the Edit menu. When you are on the General tab use the right arrow to move across the tabs. Jaws says use control tab but that does not work. After you get to Apple TV it seems like you are at the end but do another right arrow and after a time the Devices tab will appear. Tab to Automatically sync iPod and uncheck it so you can do it manually. Then tab to oK. To add songs or books do the following: Focus on the name of your iPod in the source list after you have connected it. Create a new playlist and call it whatever you like (You can delete the playlist later if you wish after the songs appear in your Music folder on the iPod.) . Go down your source list and make sure it shows right in the list following the name of your iPod so you know you created it on the iPod and not in the iTunes library. Now it is a matter of choosing the music you want to add and copying it to the clipboard. If you are starting out and want to add a whole playlist just go to the name of the playlist and tab twice to put you in the list of songs and choose Select all from the Edit menu or Control A. Then I choose Copy from the Edit menu or the Applications menu just to be sure. I think using the Control A checks all the items but to be sure press the applications key and see if Uncheck selection is listed. It took me a while before I discovered the many things that can be done by using the choices in the Applications menu so check it out carefully. Now go to the empty playlist you made on your iPod. Tab twice so you are in the empty list area. Choose Paste from the Edit menu. The songs should be copied into the playlist and onto the iPod. Some people have luck focusing on the Music folder or the name of the playlist and doing the paste but it has never worked for me. I have very good luck pasting into an empty playlist. Adding the songs takes time. I think you can check on the progress by using the Jaws cursor to read the info at the top of the window. I can also hear the computer working. After it has pasted all the songs into the empty playlist on the iPod you can go to the music folder of the iPod and tab to the search box to search for one of the titles just to be sure it got there. When you do the syncing manually you need to use the Remove hardware Safely feature on your computer or I think an eject command appears in one of the menus. Anyway you need to be sure not to disconnect while it is still adding music. One trick I noticed when adding a book in mp3 format was that after I copied the files to the regular clipboard (not in iTunes) I just created a playlist on the iPod and pasted the files directly there instead of pasting them into iTunes and then onto the iPod. It was a good shortcut since I don't need those files in iTunes anyway.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws freezing sometimes in vista?
Yes Kerie, I am having the same issue both with Vista Home Premium and Business. Furthermore, it is not just IE but in other applications such as Outlook 2003 as well. Jaws suddenly stop talking in Outlook Calendar and when I forward an e-mail message it get stuck in the from field of the original message. I don't think it is a memory issue as I have 2 gb ram installed on both machines and they are running Intel 2.4 ghz duo core processors. The only solution I have found is to unload and reload Jaws but it doesn't always work - would love to hear if there is some other solution.

When I try to delete the folder and add another it always gives me an error message. But it is really simple. I read about it on Fred's Head Companion. Here is the info from that source: One of the most frustrating things that still remains for Windows XP is that you can't burn data directly to a DVD. This is very unfortunate because of the amount of storage space on a DVD. Well, the folks at MiniDVDSoft.com are out to change this with a FREE program. Free DVD Burner is an ideal tool to burn data DVD/CDs. It can easily burn files onto most DVD/CD discs such as CD-R,CD-RW,DVD-R,DVD+R, DVD-RW and DVD+RW.

Free DVD Burner allows you to burn data DVD/CDs in a few minutes and it's completely FREE.

Re: [JAWS-Users] my questions: about Jaws and the computer:
Hi Eric, And I am certainly one of those thousands who are benefiting both professionally and personally from computers and Jaws. I remember I had just started to learn computing and Jaws when I met you at the Sight Village in Birmingham in the summer of 2002 and as a 22 year old law graduate my life was stuck as I was left with no useful sight. Whatever I have achieved over the last six years is largely due to Jaws and computers and no doubt one has to be patient in developing these new skills just like any other field.

The short answer to your question is Yes, it would save the changes just for that particular document. If you wish to make 12 point the new default setting, try the following steps: 1. From an open document press shift control and P to open the font dialogue box. 2. Quickly type 12 or use your arrow keys to choose the desired font size. 3. Now, press alt and D or tab across to the default option and press space bar to check this box. 4. Tab across to the OK button and hit enter. 5.
