An issue with Word Pad
Does anybody else have this problem, and if so, how do I solve it? For some reason when using Word Pad, WE will not announce the character being deleted when backspacing. This is just a bit disconcerting. Another issue is that WE doesn't announce what text is being selected. Any solutions for this one as well? I don't use Word Pad all that often, but when I just want to take care of a small editing job, I would far rather load a small program to do that rather than bringing out the big gun. Kind of like not wanting to use an axe to swat a fly. Anyway, any help with this one will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Banks,
If you are using the ribbon, when you tab to the various font attributes, WE
does announce edit or rich edit (and you could type into these controls the
name or size you want), but they are also comboboxes, and all you have to do in
order to see your choices is to open them with the standard alt-down arrow key
stroke. You should then find yourself in the list of choices.
I believe there are several e-books published on the topic of using Office 2010
and Window-Eyes, and they range in the $75 to $100 price range, but they are
really worth it, as you can't really learn to use Word by asking one question
at a time here on the list.
The one I prefer is from Kathyann Murtha (under either the business name of
Access Technology Institute or Blind Training). Hers gives you the book in
various electronic formats (text, Word, HTML) along with various audio
tutorials. I cannot remember if she did an update for Word 2013.
You may have to write to her to arrange a payment method, as her online payment
engine had some issue; so if you don't see a way to order what you want, drop
her an email and ask how to do it.

changing font properties on office word 2013? I am using a windows 7 pro
addition and I have insured that all of my set files for office where properly
installed and I am still not able to make any changes. When I try all I will
get is a edit box instead of a combo box that will enable me to rotate through
the choices. I have also insured that all of my set files for office where
installed, yet still nothing. Is there anyone that may have knowledge about
addressing this issue?

I know I could have used an external keyboard, but having have this defeats the purpose for me of the laptop. The only annoyance I have with the Toshiba, and I heard this is not unique to this brand is that the Function keys do what there were designed to do straight away, meaning pressing say F3 and F4 changges screen brightness. So, in order to use a function key with Window Eyes or do do things like switch window panes or close a program, you have to hit the FN key and the function key.

Re: casperski antivirus
Hi where do you get the program that you are using? Also how well does it work for you with window-eyes? And what all protection does it offer you? And can you put it on more then one computer and can you pay only once a year for it? On 8/6/2015 2:24 PM, David Goldfield via Talk wrote: I have never used Kaspersky with Window-Eyes. However, it may offer some degree of accessibility and it is the antimalware program I chose to use as of a few months ago, after Microsoft Security Essentials failed to protect me against a rather crippling virus. I use it because it is one of the top-rated antivirus packages on the market and I refuse to compromise my computer's security in the name of accessibility. I am, as some people may know, extremely passionate and a bit militant about this issue and I apologize if I come off too strong about this. However, blind people need to consider that we need to use the security software which is highly-rated, rather than choosing the package that works best with a screen reader but which may not offer an acceptable level of protection. I am trying to dialog with Kaspersky regarding these issues and I plan to continue to do so until accessibility is improved. I would like to strongly urge all of you to do the same. If one person contacts a company, they may be less inclined to act. If many of us contact them with the same concerns, particularly if we're paying customers, perhaps we'll get results which will be more favorable to us. So many of us, myself included, find it easier to choose a security program because it works best with whatever screen reader we happen to be using. When it comes to the security of my computer, that is no longer acceptable to me. For years, I relied upon MSE because it was speech-friendly. I'm also an extremely cautious, responsible and security-conscious user but these traits are no longer enough to keep you safe. I now insist on using security software which is highly-rated, meaning that it gets excellent scores with independent lab tests. If it's not accessible, I am willing to engage in constructive dialog with the company and I will go to incredible lengths to do this but, in the end my goal is to make it accessible.

I wanted a separate number pad and so many of the keyboards I felt in various stores had all the keys squished together so that I couldn't quickly distinguish the arrow keys and function keys. I know I could have used an external keyboard, but having have this defeats the purpose for me of the laptop. The only annoyance I have with the Toshiba, and I heard this is not unique to this brand is that the Function keys do what there were designed to do straight away, meaning pressing say F3 and F4 changges screen brightness. So, in order to use a function key with Window Eyes or do do things like switch window panes or close a program, you have to hit the FN key and the function key. I really dislike this, but haven't found a setting to completely turn it off and back to how it used to work in prior laptops. My HP laptop at work still functions the way I would expect with function keys. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+robin_van_lant=key@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Robert Ringwald via Talk Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2015 2:51 PM To: Talk Subject: I want Opinions On New Lap Top I’m going to get a new lap top.

RE: Synthesizer or Speech Card Behavior on Asus Zenbook
I understand disabling speech enhancements should solve this. I spoke to Microsoft's accessibility line this afternoon. The person I spoke to said the Disable all enhancements option is no longer available in Windows 10. He did escalate my issue, so I may know more in the next four or five days. It would be interesting to know if anyone does find the disable enhancements option in Windows 10. -Original Message- From: Richard Petty [mailto:richard.pe...@earthlink.net] Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2015 8:59 AM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List'; 'Marc Solomon'; 'Christopher-Mark Gilland'; 'William Vandervest' Subject: Synthesizer or Speech Card Behavior on Asus Zenbook I've just purchased a Asus Zenbook notebook, installed Windows 10 and WE 9.2.

running applications when pressing alt-tab

I know: with the exception dictionary or with the extended dictionary this can be done, but is there a better solution?

RE: WINDOWS 10
Hi. Since it sounds like your upgrade to Windows 10 has started, and since you mentioned that you are still hearing Window-eyes 9.2 speaking, all you can do is wait. The process can take up to perhaps five hours. Window-eyes will eventually stop speaking and eventually you'll hear Window-eyes announce a message asking you if you wish to keep your settings as you have them or if you only want to keep certain files. Choose to leave things as they are. Once you do that you'll hear a message that your computer will restart several times and that this could take a while. Then Window-eyes won't talk anymore. Since Window-eyes will no longer be speaking, periodically press the Windows key and the enter key together to launch Narrator. Once you can launch narrator, follow the instructions you hear, and eventually your computer will launch Windows 10 and Window-eyes will speak again.

Re: casperski antivirus
So, I have a question for you: How do you use it in the meantime? I purchased Trend Micro, and it was totally unusable. Because of that, it reeked havoc on my old computer. I think it would have been very good if I could have used it correctly, but I couldn't even tell it not to block window eyes. Pam. -Original Message- From: David Goldfield via Talk Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2015 3:24 PM To: Brice Mijares ; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: casperski antivirus I have never used Kaspersky with Window-Eyes. However, it may offer some degree of accessibility and it is the antimalware program I chose to use as of a few months ago, after Microsoft Security Essentials failed to protect me against a rather crippling virus. I use it because it is one of the top-rated antivirus packages on the market and I refuse to compromise my computer's security in the name of accessibility. I am, as some people may know, extremely passionate and a bit militant about this issue and I apologize if I come off too strong about this. However, blind people need to consider that we need to use the security software which is highly-rated, rather than choosing the package that works best with a screen reader but which may not offer an acceptable level of protection. I am trying to dialog with Kaspersky regarding these issues and I plan to continue to do so until accessibility is improved. I would like to strongly urge all of you to do the same. If one person contacts a company, they may be less inclined to act. If many of us contact them with the same concerns, particularly if we're paying customers, perhaps we'll get results which will be more favorable to us. So many of us, myself included, find it easier to choose a security program because it works best with whatever screen reader we happen to be using. When it comes to the security of my computer, that is no longer acceptable to me. For years, I relied upon MSE because it was speech-friendly. I'm also an extremely cautious, responsible and security-conscious user but these traits are no longer enough to keep you safe. I now insist on using security software which is highly-rated, meaning that it gets excellent scores with independent lab tests. If it's not accessible, I am willing to engage in constructive dialog with the company and I will go to incredible lengths to do this but, in the end my goal is to make it accessible.

RE: {BULK} Can't change font properties office word 2013
Hello Banks,
If you are using the ribbon, when you tab to the various font attributes, WE
does announce edit or rich edit (and you could type into these controls the
name or size you want), but they are also comboboxes, and all you have to do in
order to see your choices is to open them with the standard alt-down arrow key
stroke. You should then find yourself in the list of choices.
I believe there are several e-books published on the topic of using Office 2010
and Window-Eyes, and they range in the $75 to $100 price range, but they are
really worth it, as you can't really learn to use Word by asking one question
at a time here on the list.
The one I prefer is from Kathyann Murtha (under either the business name of
Access Technology Institute or Blind Training). Hers gives you the book in
various electronic formats (text, Word, HTML) along with various audio
tutorials. I cannot remember if she did an update for Word 2013.
You may have to write to her to arrange a payment method, as her online payment
engine had some issue; so if you don't see a way to order what you want, drop
her an email and ask how to do it.

Re: casperski antivirus
I have never used Kaspersky with Window-Eyes. However, it may offer some degree of accessibility and it is the antimalware program I chose to use as of a few months ago, after Microsoft Security Essentials failed to protect me against a rather crippling virus. I use it because it is one of the top-rated antivirus packages on the market and I refuse to compromise my computer's security in the name of accessibility. I am, as some people may know, extremely passionate and a bit militant about this issue and I apologize if I come off too strong about this. However, blind people need to consider that we need to use the security software which is highly-rated, rather than choosing the package that works best with a screen reader but which may not offer an acceptable level of protection. I am trying to dialog with Kaspersky regarding these issues and I plan to continue to do so until accessibility is improved. I would like to strongly urge all of you to do the same. If one person contacts a company, they may be less inclined to act. If many of us contact them with the same concerns, particularly if we're paying customers, perhaps we'll get results which will be more favorable to us. So many of us, myself included, find it easier to choose a security program because it works best with whatever screen reader we happen to be using. When it comes to the security of my computer, that is no longer acceptable to me. For years, I relied upon MSE because it was speech-friendly. I'm also an extremely cautious, responsible and security-conscious user but these traits are no longer enough to keep you safe. I now insist on using security software which is highly-rated, meaning that it gets excellent scores with independent lab tests. If it's not accessible, I am willing to engage in constructive dialog with the company and I will go to incredible lengths to do this but, in the end my goal is to make it accessible.

Re: Observations using Windows 10 and Window-eyes 9.2
Do you have the phone number for Microsoft assibily desk? -Original Message- From: Michael Massey via Talk Sent: Tuesday, August 4, 2015 4:12 AM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Subject: Observations using Windows 10 and Window-eyes 9.2 Hi. The information I'm about to pass along to the list members are not complaints. They are observations. I reserved my copies of Windows 10 to install on my Dell Xps-8500 desktop computer running Windows 8.1, and for my Dell Xps-501-L laptop running Windows 7 home 64 bit. On Sunday morning I heard Window-eyes 9.2 begin to speak as if something was being installed on my desktop computer, but didn't pay close attention, and I didn't think much of it. Yesterday I happened to check Windows updates and found at least a dozen download failed updates of Windows 10 home upgrade. With the help of the Microsoft accessibility answer desk I was able to download and install Windows 10. I am now hearing what sounds like the Window-eyes startup sound twice. The sound is also very distorted, so I have to turn the sound bars volume down a bit. Later yesterday I had to have the Microsoft Accessibility answer desk representative help me get Windows 10 downloaded so I could install it for a similar issue. There were only two failed updates and I didn't hear Window-eyes speak when the updates were being downloaded. The Window-eyes sound is also distorted. I tried to redownload and run the Window-eyes 9.2 upgrade and install it, but the progress reached 80 percent and generated a Windows error I believe. I now cannot find my downloads folder after upgrading the Windows 7 computer to Windows 10. I tried searching for downloads and nothing would come up. How do I find my downloads folder Thanks. ?

Hi, Guest networks can have passwords. The idea of a guest network is you allow the user on the guest network and they can browse the internet but are isolated from your local area network, IE they can't browse your files. You would password protect your guest network so your neighbors can't get on the guest network sucking down your bandwidth.

issues with windows 10
OK so I have tried twice to install Windows 10 on my HP Envy laptop. I have been unable to resolve the issue that file explorer is very sluggish and gets even more sluggish as times goes by. If I do a restart the sluggishness gets better but again gets worse as I use the computer. Doug at AiSquared has been working closely with me including remoting into my laptop and observed the problem first hand. I contacted the Microsoft Accessibility hotline and although they indicated that they have had numerous callers about sluggishness in file explorer they had no solution. The only last suggestion that Doug has is to do a clean install of Win 10 which means a lot of effort with the high possibility that it still won't work well. AiSquared is aware of the overall lag issue in file explorer but not like in my case where it gets more sluggish as time goes by. Is anyone else seeing this building sluggishness? Again I thank Doug and all the staff at AiSquared for all their time and only wished a easy solution was at hand. ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

RE: downgrading to window-eyes 9.1
Agree with all of this. I do note that although File Explorer is sluggish, it is still faster for me than with 8.1 or Seven (Windows) and I think we will see a flurry of updates from Microsoft soon. I do believe that support for Windows seven must diminish, and I encourage Windows Seven users to perhaps wait a while but eventually upgrade. Going back to Window-Eyes 9.1. really isn't sensible, as it locks those who do down-grade into a legacy trap. Vaughan.
