[JAWS-Users] please help with language for jaws 15
Hi listers, I have joined this list a while now, and being a little shy never introduced my self but now that I've come across a problem it's my chance to say hello to all. Glad to be part of your community. I really hope some one can help. I installed the vocalizer expressive voices, up until here everything ok. I found the Greek voice Melina and Alexandros and ok, but when I switch to these voices they speak punctuation in Greek, and any minimized items in my task bar that are in the Greek language. When I go into my documents and there are folders and files in Greek it doesn't speak them, but if I choose one of these files and open it and then minimize it and tab around when jaws gets to the task bar it speaks the proper Greek. I did try to find away to add the Greek language to the jaws menus, where it says languages, but can't figure it out. Jaws says language submenu not available. This sounds like a lot and I hope I didn't confuse you guys too much. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it so very very much. Sincerely Zoe from Canada.

[JAWS-Users] strange noise and now no sounds on my keyboard.
Hey all, hope everyone is doing well. Yesterday while on the internet, using IE11, jaws 17 latest version, and windows 10 latest version, in the middle of filling out fields on a web site, jaws stopped speaking, and a loud buzzing noise occurred. If I had to describe it, I would say it was a loud dial tone noise. My laptop seemed to freeze but I clicked alt f4 to get out of the internet, I did this a few times. The noise didn't stop, jaws wouldn't speak, and then the laptop restarted it self. When windows booted up again jaws came on like always, all seemed normal. This morning I noticed when I press the caps lock key it doesn't beep, also when I press the num lock key to turn it on and off it also doesn't beep. Also I noticed when I'm in my inbox and scrolling through my emails, when I would reach the bottom or top of the list I would here a chime sort of sound, now that also no longer seems to be working. It seems like sounds are not working correctly. Any idea what has happened and how I can fix it? Thank you to anyone who can help in advanced. Regards Zoe by the intersessions of the holy Theotokos, Lord have mercy on us. Jesus said when I return will I find the faith, not will I find faith, but the faith. So many will be shocked when he comes again in all his glory. My only hope is that it won't be too late..

[JAWS-Users] can blind people create logos?
Hi all can blind people create logos using jaws and windows? Is there anything accessible to us for creating such a thing. I fooled around a little with word and paint but I could not figure it out.

[JAWS-Users] navigation in windows settings help
Hi everyone, so a few days I posted about this strange thing I was hearing with jaws and windows 10. Something that sounds like rezzar resources 104 dll, I finally figured out that it has something to do with amazon string or something to that effect. The window gives me an option to continue or cancel by clicking the yes or no button but jaws does nothing when I tab to the buttons. I went into windows settings by clicking windows key I and I went to programs and in there I found a list of programs and apps on my computer. In there I see something called amazon assistant I click enter to select it but nothing happens I tried spacebar but nothing happends. Even if I manage to select it I try clicking application key to find the uninstall but nothing happends. Does anyone know how to navigate in this list and can give me tips on how to uninstall this amazon assistant? Thanks for any help.

Amazon Assistant is a browser add on that is specifically for use on the Amazon web site. Usually you have to specifically ask for it to be installed. To uninstall it, you need to go into Windows settings, then to the Programs and Features applet, in there you'll find a list of all the programs currently installed on your computer in alphabetical order. Step trough the list until you land on Amazon Assistant, then press Enter to start the uninstall. Note that I don't use and am not all that familiar with Windows 10, so some of my terms may be slightly different that what Windows 10 presents to you. hth Cheers!

Sounds like you have a corrupted Amazon Assistant install. What I'd recommend is to reinstall the assistant, then try uninstalling it. The theory here is that the reinstall will repair the installation, so that you can successfuly uninstall it. Here is a link to the Amazon Assistant web page where you can install it for Internet Explorer, if you use a different browser, there are links on the page to assistant installs for those. hth Cheers!

Re: [JAWS-Users] navigation in windows settings help
Actually the problem seems to be solved. I thank you so much for your help. Joseph said something about control panel and that triggered my brain into drive. I opened the start menu and typed in control panel and clicked enter. In the control panel I clicked programs and then I clicked uninstall programs. The list popped up with all the programs I have on my computer, I found amazon assistant and I right clicked on it by pressing the applications key and nothing happened so I clicked enter on the amazon assistant and a wizard popped up. The wizard gave me the choice to remove it so it did. I restarted the laptop and success this stupid thing is gone. Thanks to all of you guys helping me and triggering my brain.

Hi guys, I wrote about this a few days ago and I thought the problem was solved. I go to control panel. I click uninstall a program. It shows me a list of programs. I find amazon assistant. I select it and click enter. A wizard pops up and asks me if I want to change or remove the program. I hit enter on the remove button. I get a amazon assistant was successfully removed, finish button. I click finish button and restart my laptop. I look in the control panel uninstall program list and it's gone. A few hours later it's back. Any ideas how to get rid of this thing perminantly? Thanks for any help. Regards Zoe by the intersessions of the holy Theotokos, Lord have mercy on us.

Hi guys, so no matter what I do, it just won't go away. I went into internet explorer and disabled the toolbars amazon search bar, I went into processes and disabled it from running, I went into control panel and removed it and still nothing. It won't go away. Please I'm so frustrated. Even amazon says to remove it from the control panel, but it goes away for a day and then comes back. There must be a way. What am I missing?

Re: [JAWS-Users] remove amazon assistant
Hi jean and all, even though I disabled the toolbar and search engines in internet explorer, it still came back. Now that I disabled the same add on using jean's method through the control panel, it seems to have perminantly gone away. I should have waited a few days before replying just in case it comes back again. But I was so happy that it's gone and even after a shutdown it seems to finally be dead, I couldn't control my self from telling you all. Thank you so much for all the help. I am curious why when I opened internet explorer and went to internet options, manage add ons, and disabled it, it didn't go away, but when I went to control panel, internet options, programs, manage add ons, it disappeared. Why would all most the same thing work one way but not the other? In a way I don't care I'm just glad it's gone, but then my curiosity gets the better of me.

In the manager, locate the Amazon Assistant in the list of add ons, and disable it, then exit out of the manager and internet options. Then try uninstalling it.

But from the control panel, those components aren't in use so your choice to disable the add on doesn't get over written. For that reason I always go through the control panel when I need to set any internet options. Anyway, I hope that that assistant is finally dead in your system. Cheers!

But from the control panel, those components aren't in use so your choice to disable the add on doesn't get over written. For that reason I always go through the control panel when I need to set any internet options. Anyway, I hope that that assistant is finally dead in your system. Cheers!

[JAWS-Users] sorry off topic prayers and unsubscribe soon
Hi my fellow elf's and Mrs. Clause. Hope you are all doing ok. Unfortunately I have no choice, I have to unsubscribe from all the email groups I belong to. I haven't been able to check email and be online for a long time and it seems I will be out of things for much longer. When I turned on my laptop this morning I had over fifteen thousand emails waiting for me. Given my situation I just can't keep up anymore. I pray that one day I recover and are able to join my favourite groups again. My family is against me telling people what's wrong but I feel in writing this email I'm also helping myself to come to grips with my illness. I will remain subscribed a few more days so that I may read your thoughts in hopes that your words might help me to continue to fight this awful illness. Again I'm sorry for the off topic post and I hope the moderators can find it in their hearts to forgive me, and if one day I recover I hope they will remember me and let me back in to my favourite mailing groups. Before I tell you all my story, I would like to thank each and every one of you for either your help on various topics, or your individual private help through the phone or private email, or your messages of getting to know me, or your words of encouragement when it came to the mac, jaws, NVDA, windows 10, household tips, cooking instructions, prayers, and harmless chit chat. If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive me. Here's my unbelievable story. Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I was on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping my property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have such a lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. The result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in Canada, and I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with fighting weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last summer was the first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be over. I was exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer except pulling weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, summer, and fall. In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black underneath. I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy again. Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much gardening. In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and spent two nights in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away. I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I love so I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I have always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I have been taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try and if you fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find something you are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and husband and they both backed me as they always do. My mother who adores me spent over six thousand dollars to buy my supplies, and encouraged me on a daily bases. My husband turned half of my computer room into a work space with special lighting, magnifying contraptions, shelving, etc. My husband and mom bought me bins with dividers and I spent months sorting beads and other supplies by color, size, and type. I got help from someone on one of these mailing lists and he helped me to create labels to label all these bins. Everything was going great, or so I thought. I spent hours teaching myself how to make these beautiful bracelets, I finally got the hang of it after much trial and error and I was ready to go. I registered on etsy.com and opened up a Facebook small business page. I bought more supplies to host a launching party with food, drinks, and gifts for my guests to introduce them to my creations and my new business. While all this was happening, I noticed in October that the mosquito bites were not going away. They had become scabby and even more itchier. I showed my mom and she justified it just like I had done in my mind. Due to my type two diabetes they were taking a long time to heal as many things do when you have diabetes. At the beginning of November as some of you already know, I started to have problems with my right eye. Long story short for those who don't know, I suffer from a cornea disease. My cornea was trying to break. This had happened before but this time it was persistent and my doctor had to try different medications to stop the cornea from breaking. While I was battling this cornea problem I noticed my right arm becoming very itchy and the two mosquito bites had now

[JAWS-Users] using jaws and NVDA simultaniously help
Hi jaws list, here's a mind bogler that I hope someone can help with. I asked this question on the NVDA list and there were a few suggestions that unfortunately didn't work, so I thought I would ask you guys to see if anyone here might have an idea. Here's the situation. I like using both jaws and NVDA simoltaniously but I've run into a little problem. Let's say for example I'm on the internet and I'm reading something with jaws and I come across some Greek text, I usually press insert spacebar and then s to turn off speech on jaws, I press control alt n to turn NVDA on and I read the Greek. Up until this point fantastic, everything works great. When I'm done reading the Greek I try to press insert spacebar and s to turn speech on jaws back on, but it doesn't work. I tried using the NVDA sleep mode but still no cigar. I actually half to totally exit NVDA for jaws speech command to work. I was hoping I could find away to turn speech in jaws back on without having to exit NVDA. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can accomplish this? Regards Zoe For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] would a solution to my problem be
Hey guys would a solution to my problem be to change the speech on off key strokes to something else? If yes how would I go about assigning a different key stroke to speech on off in jaws? So for example instead of insert spacebar s maybe insert spacebar f? maybe NVDA might accept that and let me do what I want, any ideas? Of course you guys mentioned the pass through keystroke but I'm unfamiliar if NVDA has such a keystroke and what it is. Maybe I'll ask there and see what they say.

[JAWS-Users] problem solved but new problem arises JAWS & NVDA simoltaniously
Hi guys, so in solving one problem another one arose. I would like to pick your brains with this one. Jaws is running. I press insert spacebar s and jaws announces speech off. I press control alt n and NVDA starts. I turn off speech on NVDA using insert s, NVDA announces speech mode off. I press the pass through command for NVDA wich is insert f2. Then I press insert spacebar s and jaws announces speech on. Fantastic I figured this one out but things can never be easy a new problem arises. I can't at this point use my up and down arrow keys to read in a word document or email jaws absolutely says nothing. If I try arrowing up and down on the desk top jaws reads everything on my desktop as usual. Any ideas how to solve this one?

Thanks to all for all your suggestions. You were all a great help to me. I played around with this issue all day and finally figured it out.

Very helpful. I'm not sure I can be equally helpful. By turning off NVDA's speech, you haven't unloaded it, and so it's still running in the background. It makes sense in light of what you want to accomplish, which is to move swiftly between speech programs. However, it appears they conflict even when NVDA speech is off. Still, I wonder if closing and reopening Word might be a workaround. Maybe JAWS would somehow reset itself. Even less likely, I wonder if maximizing the window with alt-space, then x, might help. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Zoe Fiogkos Sent: Monday, March 07, 2016 2:06 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] problem solved but new problem arises JAWS & NVDA simoltaniously Hi guys, so in solving one problem another one arose.

[JAWS-Users] Greek voices in jawsRE: [Bulk] Re: problem solved but new problem arises JAWS & NVDA simoltaniously
Hi Jonathon, along time ago someone had installed the Greek synths for jaws and it didn't work properly on that computer.

[JAWS-Users] some help with outlook please?
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?

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: some help with outlook please?
Unfortunately someone set this computer windows 7 up for me a long time ago, and that person is no longer around. I have no cd, and don't even know if the copy is legal. I now would like to do this my self and make sure it's legal, this is why I'm asking for help with the website. I looked at it and office.com keeps trying to sell me a 365 subscription and that's not what I want. The only thing I want is outlook for email and maybe word but that's it.

Hi Zoe, If you already have Outlook installed on your w-7 computer. Just take your disk from microsoft and install Outlook on your w-10 laptop. You also can go to your Microsoft account page, if you have purchased Outlook in the past, you can download a copy to your w-10 computer. In WLM, the reading pain does not work and play well with Jaws. I go by the subject line myself, I go through many emails in a day as well. Good luck... Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching His goal. Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good health.

[JAWS-Users] defending myself hope this is ok
Sorry everyone, but I feel like I have to defend myself. I made an innocent comment on this list that obviously was misinterpreted by someone. I want the owners of this list to know I am not an advocator of illegal software. I asked for help using outlook on a windows 10 laptop and someone suggested I use my old outlook cd from my windows 7 laptop to install it now on my windows 10 laptop. I stated that someone installed it for me a long time ago and I don't have a cd and don't know if it's a legal copy. We all have been there, being new to technology and letting one or more people help us with something we have no idea about. I remember being so new at computers that when I got my first one, it just sat there for months on a desk, because I had no idea even how to turn it on. I remember hearing the terminology desktop, task bar, etc. and me scratching my head and saying to myself huh? If my outlook copy is legal or not, I have no idea. I certainly can't be held responsible for what people did to help me over 7 years ago. I sent emails to this group asking for help on how to navigate the office.com website so that I may purchase Microsoft word and or outlook. Apparently I was kicked off another list without warning because supposedly I use illegal software. For the record this is not true. My family just spent this Christmas 850 dollars to buy me a new laptop, I continued to spend 300 dollars to upgrade my jaws licence, I spent 100 dollars to by the code factory vocalizer expressive voices for NVDA, and if I need to I will spend money to buy outlook and word. I hope this clears up to anyone on this list who I am, and my intentions. People shouldn't be so quick to judge and accuse. If people use illegal software that's their choice, I am choosing not to go that route, and for someone to refuse me help and label me that way is unfair and unjust. This topic maybe irrelevant to the list and I'm sorry for that but I wanted to clear my name so that I don't get kicked off anymore lists unfairly.

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. The truth of the matter is that I was a little nervous about telling my story because I didn't know how people would see it. You know I live in Canada, and in the province I live in blind people are entitled to free software, computers, cctv's, brail equipment, etc. for free every 5 years, so if I really can't afford something I have the option to wait until my 5 years is up and get everything for free. So this so called expert who claims to want to help blind people so much should get his facts straight before he so easily accuses people.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: defending myself hope this is ok
I live in Ontario, as for email clients I'm still trying to figure out wich one I'm going to go with. I have used wlm in the past, maybe 7 years ago, not sure it's been so long. I'm going to have a look on the weekend at the stores to see how much the Microsoft bundles go for. I have literally thousands of save documents in the word format so I'm thinking I may go for the office bundle for that reason. I'm still debating it. Regardless of the debate going on about the reading/preview pain I guess I'm one of those who uses it and I love it. I've never had a problem with viruses or jaws and I want to continue using it so outlook looks like the way I'm going to go. I know it sounds like I've made up my mind, but it really will depend on the prices at the store. From what I gathered my husband has no problem spending the money if it's going to make my life easier. Another reason why i'm considering the Microsoft package is because I guess I will half to spend more money but I use word in another language and I have the Greek spell check etc. I do a lot of writing in Greek and having a spell check is essential.

The Alt-Shift is used to switch the keyboard from one language to another; in my case, the default language is English, but I also have Spanish installed and when I press Shift-Alt it toggles to Spanish and back to English. I suggest you go to the Control Panel, to Clock, language and Region and see if you can make English your default language and keyboard.

[JAWS-Users] language packs for office 2013

Any ideas how maybe I could do it through the settings in Microsoft word? I did find my old cd for 2010 and a long with that a thumb drive of an old 2010 language pack. Even though this is office 2013 would I be able to install the 2010 language pack? p.s. How funny is it that I got kicked off Jim's list and a week later I found the cd for office 2010.

Hi Brian I tried all of that but word would not recognize the Greek, after some lengthy research on the internet and a call to Microsoft accessibility it turns out that the file I have to run is proofing tools_el-gr_86.exe. It does work now however it's not the greatest spell check. I think I'm going to invest in getting a whole language pack I think it's 24 bucks, and that isn't to bad.

Use Alt key followed by R to get to the review tab of the ribbon. Tab to Language submenu and press enter key. Set Proofing Language is one of the two items in this submenu. Choose the Set Proofing Language. In the dialog box that appears there is a checkbox for detecting language automatically and a Set as Default button. Make sure that English United States is selected in the list of languages before using the Set as Default button.

[JAWS-Users] strange sound with jaws
Hello everyone, Something very strange happened today. I was sorting my documents folder. Cutting and pasting various word and text documents into various folders. All of a sudden jaws started speaking with a lot of static. Think of listening to the radio and all of a sudden you hear all this statacky interference. I unloaded jaws and restarted it and now jaws is speaking properly and clearly again. Has this happened to anyone before, any ideas what would cause this?

No it did it today for the first time. And it hasn't done it since. I'm writing this email and jaws is reading what I'm writing, and windows media player is playing music in the background.

[JAWS-Users] before i contact fs support does anyone have any idea?
Hi listers, Has anyone had this issue, or knows how to fix it. My issue is this, I'm using windows 10 and latest jaws 17. I updated jaws a few days ago and today I sat down to sort some music on my laptop. I opened file explorer through a shortcut I have on my desktop which is my music folder. I hear jaws say music multiview list box not selected Michael Jackson 1 of 4. I arrow up and down through the folder and jaws announces the different files. I hear the file I want for example Michael Jackson and I hit enter on my keyboard, and jaws opens it. And then I hear jaws say Michael Jackson multi view list box track 1 not selected, and then here's the problem. I can't up and down through the files with the arrow keys jaws announces absalutley nothing. No matter what I do with the arrow keys no response, I alt tab back into the window but nothing. My laptop is a touch screen, so if I put my finger on the screen and move it around jaws announces the file names for example track 1 or track 2, and if I double tap with my finger on the screen it opens the file as expected. Does anyone know how to fix this? Could one of my jaws settings have gotten screwed up with the update? Or maybe windows update screwed up something with jaws? Any ideas on how to fix this?i want to be able to use my keyboard to go through my files and open them like before, I don't want to use the touch screen. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: before i contact fs support does anyone have any idea?
Hey there, thank you for your input. So here is what happends. If I shift tab I hear tree view, if I arrow down to music and I hear jaws say music closed, I arrow left, and I hear jaws say Michael Jackson closed, and of course I arrow left and it opens the folder Then Itab and it takes me to the tracks. So a different way of doing it but I guess a work around. I do like hitting the enter key much better, this new way gives me a few more keystrokes that would be nice to avoid. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of valiant8086 Sent: May 16, 2016 8:11 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [Bulk] Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: before i contact fs support does anyone have any idea? Hi. Could be you're somehow winding up with keyboard focus somewhere besides the list box. This is a relatively common issue for me, you might try shift+tabbing a couple of times and see if you can land focus back on the list view. Btw, I'm guessing you know this already but just in case, when you hit enter on folders, JAWS isn't opening them, that's just Windows behaving as it should to your keyboard input, and JAWS is just there to let you know what's on screen. Sorry if this seems extraneous. I feel drawn to point these things out though because knowing these things can really help make efficient use of one's computer in situations where there is no screen reader and one is trying to get something done with no speech, or using a completely different screen reader and you can benefit from knowing what functionality will be consistent as it wasn't a screen reader thing to begin with.

Hi. I didn't intend to have you using the tree view to browse, what happens to me is I get thrown into some no man's land and shift+tab twice places me back in the folder view thing. I'm not sure what to suggest as an attempt to fix your issue. Is this something that has like 3 or 4 items in it, and they're in a horrizontal layout aka icon view? In that case, right and left arrow would go to those. You can tab once or twice from the folder view to a header thing and use left arrow on where it might say icon view and it'll say detail, which will allow up and down arrowing.

[JAWS-Users] help with internet explorer on task bar
Hi everyone I need some help please. Using windows 10 and latest build of jaws 17 I have internet explorer on my task bar. I opened internet explorer and went to a website I frequent and I clicked to download a file. I click alt n and save my file. I click alt n and I click view downloads. I alt tab and click control w to close the website which I originally visited to download my file. I minimize the window that shows the download and it's progress. I brouse through email and I decide to go back to the internet to search for something. Here's the problem. I go to the task bar and now internet explorer isn't there, it's replaced by the window that's downloading, how can I open a new tab in internet explorer? I tried to access some sort of file tab to find an option to open a new tab but no such luck. Any ideas? I hope I've explained my situation properly, and I hope I haven't confused you guys too much. Thanks for any help provided in advanced. Regards Zoe For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: help with internet explorer on task bar
Hi guys, when I'm downloading from a website, I usually close the internet page after I have chosen view and track your downloads. I only do this when I no longer want to surf the net and I'm just waiting for my download to finish. Regardless of my reasons, isn't it strange that I can't open internet explorer if the view and track your download page is running? In windows 7 I did not have this problem, I could have 10 tabs open including the above mentioned window and they were all individual and the shortcut on the desk top remained internet explorer and I could access it at any time. Having said that with windows 10 I don't have a shortcut on the desk top, it's located in the task bar. If I have a page open such as google.com I can bring that page up from the task bar and hit the shortcut to open a new tab, but as I said above that isn't possible with the view and track your download page. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Kimsan Sent: June 9, 2016 12:31 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [Bulk] Re: [JAWS-Users] help with internet explorer on task bar Ok, I just tested it lol, sorry.

It includes an improved Narrator, Cortana improvements, Edge extensions among other things. As far as accessibility is concerned, it includes a bit more responsive UI Automation. See this post from Win10 group: https://win10.groups.io/g/win10/thread/anniversary_update_updates/1997384?p= ,,,20,0,0,0::RecentPostDate%2FSticky,,anniversary+update,20,2,0,1997384 An item of note is Edge and UAC (User Account Control) dialog changes: Microsoft has changed certain technical information about Edge that'll take a while for Freedom Scientific (now part of VFO) to implement, and UAC is now powered by the same platform that powers universal apps. JAWS compatibility: I recommend waiting until at least 18 beta comes out this fall. Although Insiders who uses JFW report it is working to some extent, crashes were observed with Anniversary update preview builds for some, and upcoming JFW 18 would have resolved them by now (unfortunately, toasts are not announced in Windows 10 despite the fact that help balloon notification is checked under verbosity settings for each level). As far as universal apps are concerned, it's a mixed bag of accessibility, and use of touch cursor is a must. //JL -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Shane Hecker Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2016 9:39 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] windows 10 redstone I'm guessing that'll be the anniversary update that is supposed to come out in July.

Hi Mike, I have never updated jaws from a download link, I have always updated from the pop up that jaws gives you when starting up your computer. >From reading conversations on this list and other lists, I have been convinced it's better to download and update.

JAWS list of 8 items . We have been working with Microsoft to improve the accessibility of the Mail app included in Windows 10. After installing this update, read-only messages you open are now read using the Virtual Cursor, similar to Outlook. Additionally, just like in Word or Outlook, JAWS now announces when you turn on or off the bold, italic, and underline attributes in editable messages using the CTRL+B, CTRL+I, and CTRL+U commands. While users should notice improved performance with the currently released Mail app, Microsoft has made a number of changes as well to improve the experience which will be included in a Windows 10 update that will be available in the coming weeks. . Due to issues with obtaining results from 411.com, the People Search Research It lookup source has been updated to use the web site 10digits.us. To search, you now only need to enter the person's first and last name. If you receive too many results, you can narrow the search further by typing the person's first and last name followed by a comma, and then the city and state, or zip code. For example, John Smith, Saint Petersburg FL, or John Smith, 33716. . Addressed an issue where the INSERT+4 keystroke could not be found using the JAWS Command Search feature. This command opens a dialog box where you can select from a list of items such as Euro, Yen, Pounds, Trademark, Copyright, bullet, plus or minus, etc. and the symbol for that item will be inserted at the cursor position in the currently open document. If you know of any other keystrokes that are missing from the JAWS Command Search, or are not easily found, please provide us with the name of the keystroke and the search terms you are using to locate it so we can update the command descriptions with this information to make them easier to find. . When entering text in contracted braille using the APH Refreshabraille display, addressed a reported issue where contracted words beginning with dots 4-5-6 were not being correctly translated. . This update contains new scripts from Corel to add JAWS support for the X8 versions of WordPerfect, Quatro Pro, and Presentations. . Dictionary pronunciation rules have been added so that JAWS now correctly speaks the name "Ai Squared". . Resolved an issue with the Weather Research It lookup source in the German version of JAWS not displaying the temperature. . In response to customer requests, you can now configure braille input when the braille language is set to English - United Kingdom. list end Microsoft Excel list of 3 items . Resolved an issue where JAWS was not reporting background color changes in Excel after turning on "Font, color, and attribute changes indication" in Quick Settings. . Addressed issues with opening drop-down lists contained in cells. . Addressed an issue where structured braille stopped working correctly if focus moved to a menu and then back to the spreadsheet. list end Web Browsers list of 3 items . Addressed certain instances where combo boxes on a web page were not being shown in the virtual buffer. . In addition to announcing "has pop up" on aria menu buttons, JAWS now also says "has pop up" for any element that includes the aria-haspopup property. .

Thanks mike sounds easy enough but I find that jaws isn't reading all the fields, but because I've done it many years ago, I put my mind to work and did some guess work and I was able to get it done. It's a little sad that jaws wasn't reading everything properly but oh well that's technology for you. I'm sure freedom scientific will take care of this problem eventually. Thanks again so much. by the intersessions of the holy Theotokos, Lord have mercy on us. Jesus said when I return will I find the faith, not will I find faith, but the faith. So many will be shocked when he comes again in all his glory. My only hope is that it won't be too late.. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.
