Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016

David:

Thanks for posting these instructions for eliminating the back stage view in
Word 2016.

Like others on the list, I had to do this when I first installed Office 365
on my current  Windows 7 laptop, but couldn't remember enough about how to
do it to send instructions to Miriam.

I'm going to save these instructions for future reference, because I plan to
purchase a new computer shortly with the Windows 10 operating system, and
will have to install Office 365 from Scratch.

And now I discovered a new issue which is a result of Microsoft reinstalling

automatically. Instead, I am presented with something called, backstage

Miriam,

It sounds as though someone created a "message rule" for your email so that
it goes to that defective folder. You can delete that rule. Try the
following:

Place focus in a message list next to a message where your name is in the
"To" line.

Press the applications key, which is between the right-hand Windows and
control keys.

Arrow down to "Rules submenu." Press enter.

Tab until you hear "Manage rules and alerts..." Press the spacebar here.

Tab again until you hear "Delete." Once again, press the spacebar.

I just went through these steps to make sure they work. However, since I
don't want to remove any of my existing rules, I couldn't go further. I
suggest you keep tabbing from there in case there's an "Apply" button. If
there is, press the spacebar on it. either way, resume tabbing to the Okay
button.

I hope you can follow these steps and that they solve this part of your
email problem.

George,

Someone set up the "to Miriam" folder for me. The new emails sent directly
to me are all going there directly. But emails coming to me through email
lists that I'm on, are arriving in the inbox. This has always been the setup
I've had. The problem is that the "to Miriam" folder won't work. When I go
to it, it closes Outlook. Before Microsoft Disabilities worked on the
problem, the inbox didn't work either.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016

[Miriam Vieni]

David,

I would certainly appreciate some help. Let me first explain where I am at
this point.

There are 2 messages in my inbox that would have ordinarily have gone to my
, to Miriam, folder. So perhaps I solved that problem. I'm not sure.

When I attempted to follow your directions for getting directly to a word
document, the file menu would not open with alt F. I did eventually get a
new document to open, but just by tabbing around. I didn't even get to
anything that said, "open new document". 

I can't access all of the emails that are still in my "to Miriam" folder.

I would appreciate your help. I live on Long Island. I'm 80 years old. My
hearing isn't that great and I'm not good at this stuff. But I would be
happy to call you, or you can call me, if that's convenient.  If you send me
your email address, I'll send you my phone number. My email address is

miriamvi...@optonline.net

Miriam, I solved this problem, which I also encountered on installing Office 
2016. However, I need to check my notes and right now I'm headed out for lunch. 
I'll follow up as soon as I can.

And now I discovered a new issue which is a result of Microsoft reinstalling 
office 365. When I try to open a word document now, it doesn't open 
automatically. Instead, I am presented with something called, backstage view. 
If I tab around, I get to, open new document. The person who set this up for me 
a year ago February, set it up so the document just opened automatically.

Miriam,

It sounds as though someone created a "message rule" for your email so that it 
goes to that defective folder. You can delete that rule. Try the
following:

Place focus in a message list next to a message where your name is in the "To" 
line.

Press the applications key, which is between the right-hand Windows and control 
keys.

Arrow down to "Rules submenu." Press enter.

Tab until you hear "Manage rules and alerts..." Press the spacebar here.

Tab again until you hear "Delete." Once again, press the spacebar.

I just went through these steps to make sure they work. However, since I don't 
want to remove any of my existing rules, I couldn't go further. I suggest you 
keep tabbing from there in case there's an "Apply" button. If there is, press 
the spacebar on it. either way, resume tabbing to the Okay button.

I hope you can follow these steps and that they solve this part of your email 
problem.

George,

Someone set up the "to Miriam" folder for me. The new emails sent directly to 
me are all going there directly. But emails coming to me through email lists 
that I'm on, are arriving in the inbox. This has always been the setup I've 
had. The problem is that the "to Miriam" folder won't work. When I go to it, it 
closes Outlook. Before Microsoft Disabilities worked on the problem, the inbox 
didn't work either.

That is something happening with your email provider.  I would call their tech

Hi Miriam,
Not sure about your many issues but the multiple copies of emails is not
Outlook's fault.  
That is something happening with your email provider.  I would call their
tech support and ask them to help with your receiving multiple copies of
emails.
Also, do you know the difference between your email being set up as iMap or
POP3?  By default Outlook likes to set up nowadays as iMap and if you do not
have your email on a cell phone you should be using POP3.  Ask your email
provider about that as well.  Also ask them to help you set your Outlook to
delete messages off their server once downloaded.

And now I discovered a new issue which is a result of Microsoft reinstalling
office 365. When I try to open a word document now, it doesn't open
automatically. Instead, I am presented with something called, backstage
view. If I tab around, I get to, open new document. The person who set this
up for me a year ago February, set it up so the document just opened
automatically.

Miriam,

It sounds as though someone created a "message rule" for your email so that
it goes to that defective folder. You can delete that rule. Try the
following:

Place focus in a message list next to a message where your name is in the
"To" line.

Press the applications key, which is between the right-hand Windows and
control keys.

Arrow down to "Rules submenu." Press enter.

Tab until you hear "Manage rules and alerts..." Press the spacebar here.

Tab again until you hear "Delete." Once again, press the spacebar.

I just went through these steps to make sure they work. However, since I
don't want to remove any of my existing rules, I couldn't go further. I
suggest you keep tabbing from there in case there's an "Apply" button. If
there is, press the spacebar on it. either way, resume tabbing to the Okay
button.

I hope you can follow these steps and that they solve this part of your
email problem.

Hi Miriam,
Not sure about your many issues but the multiple copies of emails is not
Outlook's fault.  
That is something happening with your email provider.  I would call their
tech support and ask them to help with your receiving multiple copies of
emails.
Also, do you know the difference between your email being set up as iMap or
POP3?  By default Outlook likes to set up nowadays as iMap and if you do not
have your email on a cell phone you should be using POP3.  Ask your email
provider about that as well.  Also ask them to help you set your Outlook to
delete messages off their server once downloaded.

George,

Someone set up the "to Miriam" folder for me. The new emails sent directly
to me are all going there directly. But emails coming to me through email
lists that I'm on, are arriving in the inbox. This has always been the setup
I've had. The problem is that the "to Miriam" folder won't work. When I go
to it, it closes Outlook. Before Microsoft Disabilities worked on the
problem, the inbox didn't work either.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016

[Miriam Vieni]

I was listening to Jaws while the disabilities tech was setting things up
and I'm sure I heard pop 3. As for my internet service provider, that is
Optimum and they are infamously unhelpful. But I will say that the last time
I had multiple copies, I was using Outlook 2003, which I loved, and the
multiple copies were a sign that it was corrupted. Since Microsoft no longer
supported office 2003, I had to change to office 365. I would have stayed
with 2003 forever if I could have.

Miriam, no, the problem isn't with JAWS 18, at least none of the ones you
identify. I'm also using Outlook 2016, along with Windows 7. 
I have bad experiences with Microsoft Disability support, unless the problem
turns out to be really simple, in which case I don't need them! I'll only
call them as a last resort, and even then I've had to find someone else to
fix the damage they do.

I'm wondering if there is a problem with Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016 because
the Microsoft disabilities tech person thought that this might be causing my
difficulty. Outlook stopped functioning. When I called, the first person set
up a new profile in Outlook, whatever that is. But then the problem
actdually persisted. Outlook would open, begin to work, and then stop
functioning. I called again. The second tech person replaced all of office
365, promising that all the settings would remain the same. They didn't. But
the other problem is that everything worked except the, "to Miriam", folder
to which all my important emails go. That one continues to close. I asked
him to remove that folder for me and set things up so that everything goes
to the inbox, but he refused. Also, I can't address emails. Auto complete
doesn't work properly and unrelated email addresses appear, even if I just
try to write in an address. I managed to get to the address book one time,
but couldn't use it to address  an email. I'm sending this because I can
read emails from my inbox and use one of the email addresses  from that.
Microsoft is having someone from a higher level call back on Monday. Before
that happens, I want to know if anyone who is still using Jaws 18 and is
using Outlook 2016   has had a similar problem.

Hi Miriam,
Not sure about your many issues but the multiple copies of emails is not
Outlook's fault.  
That is something happening with your email provider.  I would call their
tech support and ask them to help with your receiving multiple copies of
emails.
Also, do you know the difference between your email being set up as iMap or
POP3?  By default Outlook likes to set up nowadays as iMap and if you do not
have your email on a cell phone you should be using POP3.  Ask your email
provider about that as well.  Also ask them to help you set your Outlook to
delete messages off their server once downloaded.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016

[George Martinez Sr]

Hi Miriam,
I am using Windows 10, Office 365 and JAWS18.
I had a somewhat similar issue but it was caused by the fact that I had a
new computer and ended up on Dell's 90day free trial of Office Suite.  It
was terrible until I discovered that my Office 365 was not installed.  Once
we got that fixed things are working "normal" in my Outlook 2016.
BTW-When I called Microsoft Accessibility line the tech solved HALF of my
problem but not the rest.  That is not altogether uncommon there.  Then I
called COX, my ISP provider where I pay for tech help, and that guy though
willing solved nothing.  Finally my son and I figured out the remaining
issues and now all is well.

Hi,

 

I need to use firefox to edit the html of a webpage on the fly.  According
to the firefox support site I should use the page inspector to do this.

 

My challenge is to add a new option into a combobox.  I can locate the
combobox in the html by searching for the word option.

If I right-click on the first option node and select duplicate from the
context menu, I get a new entry in the lis (good so far).

My problem comes in when I want to edit the value of the option.  I select
edit as html friom the context menu, and am placed in presumably an edit
field, but I cannot see anything in the edit box.  I have explored with the
pc and jaws cursors but can't find the html tags to edit.

 

Does anyone have any experience with this tool or know how to get it to work
with jaws?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Don

I assume that when I reboot my computer, this problem will disappear, but
just late this afternoon, Jaws would not read individual letters in word if
I arrowed through a line, letter by letter. Then I wrote a business letter
and put an envelope into the printer and went to the envelopes page with alt
1. Jaws acted as if the address wasn't there. I could tell it was there only
because I'm using Magic at 22X and I arrowed around and saw it. I then put
in my return address with alt R and again, Jaws said nothing at all, but I
could see that it was there. I'll see what happens when I reboot, but I'm

Please tell me again, in detail, what to do when Jaws 18 disappears. I wrote
down to press Jaws key plus windows key plus F4 and this turns off Jaws. And
if I press these keys again, they act as a toggle. Am I supposed to press
them simultaneously? When I press them the first time, I can see with my
hugely magnified Magic that the screen changes. But I haven't gotten Jaws to
restart with those keys or with any others. I am having to resort to turning
the computer off with the button and then turning it on again. Even though I
can see that I've moved to the screen that says, "Shut Down", the key
strokes don't work. But, after I press the button, just before the screen
changes, Jaws says something, but then the computer shuts down. I have a 64
bit windows 7 computer. I'd sell my soul for a key stroke that would just
get Jaws working again without having to shut down the computer and wait for
it to start and load.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18

[net bat66]

one thing. if you had to re install or upgrade jaws the shortcut key in the 
desktop will be replaced and that shortcut would also be erased and you would 
have to re create it again.;
open a context menu on the jaws 18 icon. click on properties then tab to the 
shortcut edit box. if it is blank no shortcut has been defined. or maybe the 
person that set it up used other keys.

if it is blank press j and it will fill it in with control alt j.
tab to the o k button and save the changes. it might ask for your administrator 
password that you use to log on with before it will save it.
if the keys are already there press the escape key to close the settings 
without saveing anything.

***
there are a few ways to shut down jaws
jaws windows f4  does not work without generating a error report most of the 
time.

shift windows f4 doesn't do anything.
if jaws has not crashed you can shut down with jaws f4 and press enter on the 
dialog. it defaults to the yes button.
you can press jaws j to open a dialog and arrow up once to wrap to the exit 
button and press enter.
if the desktop icon shortcut key is working you could press control alt j and 
it would open the same dialog screen and arrow up once to wrap to the exit 
button and press enter on it.

most of the time if i press jaws windows f4  keys it will take a long time for 
speech to come back then it will generate a error report.;
the shut down keys are jaws f4. and the shortcut keys that you have to create 
in the desktop icon is used to reload jaws.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18

[Mike B.]

Hi Miriam,

Selling your soul won't be necessary, hopefully!  LOL
Here's an explanation of the Jaws key, Windows key, + F4, keystroke, it is 
not a toggle.  Also, steps for creating a shortcut keystroke::
From: "Paul Magill" <
In some situations, when Jaws has crashed, or another process has crashed 
Jaws, you can use WindowsKey+JawsKey+F4 to shut down Jaws and all its
associated processes, thus allowing it to be restarted in the usual way
without rebooting.

Note, it does not always work, but saves a lot of time when it does.  This
method also causes an error reporting file to be created, and if asked by FS
support, can be emailed to them to assist in analysing the initial problem.
Regards,
Paul from Aust

If you don't have a shortcut keystroke to restart Jaws once you have invoked 
the above keystroke, try the following to create one:
1. Go  to the Desktop by pressing, Windows key + D, or Windows key + M.
2. Press the letter, J, until you have the  JAWS icon highlighted.
3. Press, Alt + Enter, to open the JAWS icon Properties. When the JAWS icon 
properties opens you should be on the shortcut page.
4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination 
of your choice, like Alt, Control, + J, or whatever other combination you 
prefer.
5. Tab to the, Apply, button, press the spacebar, tab around again to the, 
Okay, button, and press, Enter, to save the change & close.

Now, when you press, Alt, Control, + J, or whatever shortcut key you 
assigned, JAWS should restart.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Please tell me again, in detail, what to do when Jaws 18 disappears. I wrote
down to press Jaws key plus windows key plus F4 and this turns off Jaws. And
if I press these keys again, they act as a toggle. Am I supposed to press
them simultaneously? When I press them the first time, I can see with my
hugely magnified Magic that the screen changes. But I haven't gotten Jaws to
restart with those keys or with any others. I am having to resort to turning
the computer off with the button and then turning it on again. Even though I
can see that I've moved to the screen that says, "Shut Down", the key
strokes don't work. But, after I press the button, just before the screen
changes, Jaws says something, but then the computer shuts down. I have a 64
bit windows 7 computer. I'd sell my soul for a key stroke that would just
get Jaws working again without having to shut down the computer and wait for
it to start and load.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18

the keys are jaws f4 to unload it.
you have to make sure there is a shortcut in the jaws 18.0 desktop icon before 
you can reload jaws. the shortcut keys are not there by default after jaws has 
been installed.
oepn a context menu on the icon, click properties and in the shortcut edit box 
press j and it will be filled with control alt j by default. save the change. 
then you can reload jaws with these keys.

control alt j

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[Humberto Rodriguez]

Hello Michele,

After you open the PDF document, press Insert-Spacebar, you will hear a
click, then press the letter O and after that letter D to scan the entire
document.  It will open another windows into which, dependeng on the size of
the document, soon will appear the test.  From there you can copy it and
paste into a text editor or word processor.

Open Book will open PDF documents directly, just open the program, go to the
File menu to open a d ocument or press Control-O and open it from there.

Regards,


Humberto

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[Jim Pursley]

If you have Open Book you'll find that you'll seldom use Convenient 
OCR.  You can read scanned and secure pdf's in Open Book as well as any 
other scanned material larger than a banner (convenient OCR may be 
better for small scans).  You might want to make a short cut  key for 
Open Book (I use O).   To access scanned material just hit Control P and 
your printers will pop up..Open Book is your Freedom printer.  Just 
click on the name and your doc will open in Open Book.  JAWS will now 
work in Open Book, so you don't need to suppress JAWS.  Open Book has a 
really good help section. Just use F6 to toggle.  You may need no 
training to use it.


Mike B. did a marvelous job of listing the preparations JAWS users need 
to make for Adobe DC (latest).  You will need to use the accessibility 
wizard and to uncheck some items in the preferences tree.  In adobe, 
just hit control K and the list will pop up.  Go to enhanced scecurity 
and uncheck protected view.  In the accessibility wizard you will also 
want to uncheck opening the pdf's in the browser.  I particularly like 
reading a whole document, not page by page - even long documents.  Most 
newer computers are fast enough to load even a 70 or so page pdf with 
some ease.


Tehre are of course more detailed instructions to give but you may be 
aable to complete your pdf orientation with the above suggestions.)

Hi, Vicky. I'll answer with a qualified yes. I'm assuming that JAWS 16 doesn't 
have the Convenient OCR feature, but I could be wrong. With convenient OCR, 
JAWS makes it easy to convert PDF files. The typical sequence of keystrokes is 
JAWS key+spacebar, then o for OCR, then d for document. You wait a while, not 
long at all for short documents and maybe a few minutes for longer ones, and 
then the text of the PDF file is displayed in a new window.

If you can live with those steps, the Convenient OCR feature is well 
worthwhile. I use it all the time.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[Kevin]

not sure if it has changed because I had version 8, but if you saved the pdf 
to your computer.   and with the pdf document opened, just activate the 
print command then choose print with freedom import printer and after 
printing is finished  the document will showup in OpenBook.

I would assume it is the same if the document is on the web!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[Fernando Gregoire]

The Convenient OCR feature is available since JAWS 13, and capability of 
recognizing PDF documents independently of screen resolution was added in JAWS 
15. I don't remember, however, if Freedom Scientific release the update for 
fixing this functionality in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (not to be confused with 
Adobe Reader nor the even older Adobe Acrobat Reader) for JAWS 16 too.

Hi, Vicky. I'll answer with a qualified yes. I'm assuming that JAWS 16 doesn't 
have the Convenient OCR feature, but I could be wrong. With convenient OCR, 
JAWS makes it easy to convert PDF files. The typical sequence of keystrokes is 
JAWS key+spacebar, then o for OCR, then d for document. You wait a while, not 
long at all for short documents and maybe a few minutes for longer ones, and 
then the text of the PDF file is displayed in a new window. 

If you can live with those steps, the Convenient OCR feature is well 
worthwhile. I use it all the time.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[Fernando Gregoire]

Hi agree with you, George. When a document is a book or is a bit longer than a 
single short article, I prefer to use more advanced OCR programs like 
FineReader.
In addition to copying text to Word, in Windows 10 from the Results Viewer 
window you can press CTRL+P and, in the Print dialog, select the Microsoft 
Print to PDF printer. Unlike PDFs created by Word this built-in printer does 
not include structuring tags for accessibility, but actually documents are very 
accessible anyway.

Hi Vicki,
I receive PDF documents many times a week and my JAWS 18 has an excellent OCR 
feature to read them virtually perfectly. 
Also, once JAWS has run it through the OCR and it is on my screen I can arrow 
up and down to read lines as many times as I want.
I can also then capture the readable document and place it into a text or Word 
document.  Very handy.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and PDF?

[miketmote73]

Generally speaking, JAWS reads PDF files, provided they are created
properly.  The structure of the document has to include proper tags and
other accessibility considerations, so that screen readers are able to read
the information.  Scanned images are most likely not going to be read by a
screen reader, unless you perform some type of OCR, (Optical Character
Recognition). This functionality is already built into JAWS.  Certainly, in
some cases, this works well, but in others, it is not ideal.  For example,
if you're trying to fill out paperwork that was sent to you as a scanned
image, chances are, this will not work for you very well at all.  While JAWS
may read to you the information, you probably won't be able to determine
where you should put requested informationlike your name, phone number etc.
onto the document, if you can edit it at all.  
I have seen JAWS read documents that were not properly tagged for
accessibility, and other times it doesn't read the file at all.  It really
depends on the type of file you're trying to read with Adobe, and what type
of accessibility considerations were included by the author of said file.

Hello to the list.

 

On two different computers running the latest Jaws 18 and Outlook 2016, I
have noticed that when pressing enter to open a message,  jaws will begin to
prematurely read the message, and then interrupt itself with "Message has 13
links", and then either continue to read the message, or, start back at the
beginning.

This seems to happen about 70% of the time.

I have turned off all panes, the reading pane, preview pane, all other panes
that I can find in Outlook.

 

This behavior does not seem to occur in Outlook 2013, but is very
distracting in outlook 2016.

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this same behavior?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

This is for all JFW 18 users, if you use build 15031 this is a problem and if I 
remember rite ms is aware and so the best thing you can do for now is to either 
use NVDA or return to an earlier build.  HTH.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18, windows 10, all crash!

Hi to all,
I'm Germano from Italy.
I've windows 10 pro insider, build 15031, and jaws 18, the last build.
Ok, until yesterday, all worked fine. I installed some update for visual
studio 2015, to build universal app.
I restarted system and jaws crash continuously.
I press start, and it returns to desktop. I attempt to start my computer,
and it returns to desktop. The only applications working are internet
explorer and few others. But, all windows apps, such as mail, store, groove
music, it won't open.
I tried to open apps with NVDA, and all works fine. Start menu works, my
computer works  etc... with jaws all crash.
I tried to reinstall jaws 18, but nothing changes.
Can someone help me?
Thanks!

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 18 and outlook 2016 not getting along.

[Rose]

So, what kind of add-ins would Outlook have?  To my knowledge I have never
added anything to Outlook 2010.  I have considered upgrading to 365 2016 but
based on some things I read hesitate to do so, including the fact that I
might lose all my contacts, completions etc.  I would like to add my Google
account but, Google tells me my e-mail client is too old, had it on until my
disk drive died and everything was reconfigured by repair person.  I get
that mail via my iPhone but would prefer to be able to answer any of it on
the computer.

Hello;
Not sure if this will help,
But it may be worth giving it a try.


In case you need to troubleshoot Outlook, it is a good idea to load Outlook
without loading any 3rd party Outlook add-ins. This article explains just
how to do it.

Among other culprits, Outlook add-ins are the usual suspect when Outlook
runs slow or triggers unexpected errors. To determine if the installed
add-ins are causing you problems, the easiest thing to do is to start
Outlook with no add-ins.

Outlook command line switch for add-ins

In order to load Outlook without add-ins, you have to exit Outlook and type
the following command in a RUN window or in a Windows command prompt: 

Outlook /safe:3

Please note that, while the above command will cause Outlook to load with no
add-ins, the add-ins are still going to be displayed in the Add-in Manager
window.

office 365.  I do not have 2013 and never did.

Might I ponder here on your situation, Matthew, Please. I did not up-grade
from within Windows 07, instead bought new, no big deal. The big deal was
transferring and then Outlook-Complete office Word and E-mail. Confirming
was a issue as the person forgot to get the key. Forced to get Microsoft
Outlook 2016 Complete with Office with Word and e-mail. They laid over-top
of 2013 Outlook.. I had, would  not say major issues but for sure issues.
Anything from Jaws not talking to dying. I went to the Microsoft Handicap,
explained and they removed all traces of outlook that of 2013 and 2016. Then
after making sure all was removed, reinstalled my License copy of 2016 and
since then I have had no issues. Might this be a issue with you? All three
folders of mine work just fine!

Hello;
Not sure if this will help,
But it may be worth giving it a try.


In case you need to troubleshoot Outlook, it is a good idea to load Outlook
without loading any 3rd party Outlook add-ins. This article explains just
how to do it.

Among other culprits, Outlook add-ins are the usual suspect when Outlook
runs slow or triggers unexpected errors. To determine if the installed
add-ins are causing you problems, the easiest thing to do is to start
Outlook with no add-ins.

Outlook command line switch for add-ins

In order to load Outlook without add-ins, you have to exit Outlook and type
the following command in a RUN window or in a Windows command prompt: 

Outlook /safe:3

Please note that, while the above command will cause Outlook to load with no
add-ins, the add-ins are still going to be displayed in the Add-in Manager
window.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and MS Word 2016 document focus problem

What I've been doing is closing the document focus returns to.  Then focus
goes to the newly opened document.

Try alt space then the letter n to cminimize the current windoe and see if

Hi,

I am running JFW 18, Windows 10, and MS Word 2016.

When I open a document when another document is already open I have a lot of
trouble getting Jaws to focus on the newly opened document.  Jaws+T says
that I am in the new document.  However, Jaws will not read the document and
focus returns to the previous document.  

Sometimes I can move the Jaws cursor to text in the newly opened document
and route the PC cursor to the Jaws cursor.  However, this only works part
of the time.  

Sometimes I can resolve the problem by alt-tabbing to another program and
then alt-tabbing back to the newly opened document.  But, again, this works
only part of the time.

Sometimes I can resolve the problem by restarting Jaws.

I have tried going back to the default user settings (control+spacebar, Z).
That does not resolve the problem.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Do you have maximized the document window?

If you have created a desktop icon for your Microsoft Word, open the

Hope this can solve your problem.

Try alt space then the letter n to cminimize the current windoe and see if
yours comes up.  If not, then just alt tab until you get to the new

Hi,

I am running JFW 18, Windows 10, and MS Word 2016.

When I open a document when another document is already open I have a lot of
trouble getting Jaws to focus on the newly opened document.  Jaws+T says
that I am in the new document.  However, Jaws will not read the document and
focus returns to the previous document.  

Sometimes I can move the Jaws cursor to text in the newly opened document
and route the PC cursor to the Jaws cursor.  However, this only works part
of the time.  

Sometimes I can resolve the problem by alt-tabbing to another program and
then alt-tabbing back to the newly opened document.  But, again, this works
only part of the time.

Sometimes I can resolve the problem by restarting Jaws.

I have tried going back to the default user settings (control+spacebar, Z).
That does not resolve the problem.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and MS Word 2016 document focus problem

[Jason White]

I just tested this scenario under JAWS 18, Microsoft Office 2016 with latest
updates, under windows  10 Pro. I am unable to reproduce the problem you
describe. However, I am experiencing other difficulties with JAWS and
Microsoft Word, especially if I try to insert comments into documents that I
receive from colleagues at work. That issue is currently before VFO's support
department. A few suggestions:

1. Make sure your copy of Microsoft Office is up to date, and that you're
running the latest version of JAWS 18.

2. Switch JAWS to default configuration mode with Insert+Space, z. Once you've
finished testing, switch this mode off with the same command. If the problem
still occurs when you're in this mode, it shows that nothing in your JAWS
settings is responsible.

3. Running a JAWS repair actually may be  worth it. Sometimes, it eliminates
problems.

There's something that differs between your system and mine, and which
explains why you're seeing the issue but I'm not.

Hello,

I have noticed recently some focus problem also in Skype; when I am in
conversation in Skype, Jaws keeps saying at intervals that it lost focus; I
am not sure if it is a JAWS problem or a Windows problem, due to a recent
update of one or the other.

Those are all but identical to the standard repair instructions that FS sends

Hi Jaws list. Just curious, what's wrong with repairing Jaws 18 the following 
way?

Make sure a copy of the Jaws 18 executable file is copied to your main root of 
your C: drive.

Press windows key+r, for the run dialog.

Type the following line into the run dialog edit box, press enter.

 

C:\J18.0.2118ENU-x64.EXE /type repair

 

Press enter on the OK button, to restart your computer, when the Jaws 18 repair

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 shortcut on desktop

[Adrian Spratt]

Louise, first decide whether you want to keep both versions of JAWS. If you do, 
and if you decide to use the control-alt-j shortcut for 18, you will first need 
to remove it from 17. Or else keep the j shortcut with 17 and create a new one 
for 18. To remove a shortcut, follow the same steps, except when you get to 
"j," just press the delete key. Escape to get out of the dialog and you should 
be fine.

Hi Fred,

Here's another approach.
1. Go to the Desktop with, Windows key + M.
2. Highlight the JAWS icon.
3. Press, Alt + Enter, to open the JAWS Properties.
4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination of 
your choice, like Alt-Control-J or whatever other combination you prefer.
5. Tab to Apply button, hit Space, then tab around again to the Okay button and 
press Enter.
I have always had the best luck by 1st, Applying then Okaying in making 
shortcut keys stick.
Take care.

Fred,

This JAWS shortcut is notoriously fickle. Try this, which works on my system. 
Follow Ed's steps exactly up to and including where you confirm that your 
choice of shortcut has been accepted. Then, instead of going to the okay button 
and pressing enter, press escape to get out of the dialog. Ed is correct, but 
I've found that taking that extra step to the Okay button often undoes the 
shortcut. I have no idea why this is, but I recall others reporting a similar 
experience.

A couple of points just to be sure. Note that Ed said just to type "j." 
Control and alt are assumed unless you type some other key. So adding the 
control and alt keys would risk sending the shortcut dialog into a tantrum.

Also, Ed suggested using insert-tab to confirm the shortcut has been entered. 
I'm sure he's right, but that isn't the key combination I use. In my case, it's 
JAWS key+8 on the numpad.

I automatically reboot after pressing escape.

Hi Fred,
I assumed you went to the Jaws 18 icon on the desktop and pressed the 
application key and went to properties.
Then you tab to short cut and press the letter J. Then do the insert + tab key 
to hear that the shortcut key is ctrl + alt+ J. Then tab to ok. Then I am not

I am using W10, outlook 2010 and jaws 18 and I cannot get jaws to work using 
the control alt "J" keystroke.  I have changed to different letters and numbers 
but no luck.  I even went as far as to unstall and reinstall jaws 18.  I will 
appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks much,

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 shortcut on desktop

[Gene Warner]

You might have to first go into the properties of the JAWS 117 icon and 
delete the existing shortcut key there, then add the shortcut key to the 
JAWS 18 icon.


I don't know if Windows is smart enough to remove it for you when you 
add it to the JAWS 18 icon.


Cheers!

Hi Fred,

Here's another approach.
1. Go to the Desktop with, Windows key + M.
2. Highlight the JAWS icon.
3. Press, Alt + Enter, to open the JAWS Properties.
4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination
of your choice, like Alt-Control-J or whatever other combination you prefer.
5. Tab to Apply button, hit Space, then tab around again to the Okay button
and press Enter.
I have always had the best luck by 1st, Applying then Okaying in making
shortcut keys stick.
Take care.

Fred,

This JAWS shortcut is notoriously fickle. Try this, which works on my
system. Follow Ed's steps exactly up to and including where you confirm that
your choice of shortcut has been accepted. Then, instead of going to the
okay button and pressing enter, press escape to get out of the dialog. Ed is
correct, but I've found that taking that extra step to the Okay button often
undoes the shortcut. I have no idea why this is, but I recall others
reporting a similar experience.

A couple of points just to be sure. Note that Ed said just to type "j."
Control and alt are assumed unless you type some other key. So adding the
control and alt keys would risk sending the shortcut dialog into a tantrum.

Also, Ed suggested using insert-tab to confirm the shortcut has been
entered. I'm sure he's right, but that isn't the key combination I use. In
my case, it's JAWS key+8 on the numpad.

I automatically reboot after pressing escape.

Hi Fred,
I assumed you went to the Jaws 18 icon on the desktop and pressed the
application key and went to properties.
Then you tab to short cut and press the letter J. Then do the insert + tab
key to hear that the shortcut key is ctrl + alt+ J. Then tab to ok. Then I
am not sure on this but you might have to reboot your pc for this change to
take place. I guess you can try it first then if it does not work reboot
your pc.

It worked correctly, on the first attempt, under Windows 10 Pro here too.
