Re: jaws authorizations for home addition.

2017-06-22 Thread john pitts via Talk
hi, once you get your authorisation number, you can put it on 3 computers, 
once you have used all of the authorisations, you have to ring freedom 
scientific, or your dealer, and they will restore an authorisation for you, 
hope that helps, all the best, john.

Subject: jaws authorizations for home addition.

 Hello. I was wondering about the jaws licenses. If I want to get the
home addition of jaws how many computers can I put jaws on to and will I
get a different authorization number for each one? I have not migrated
yet, but am going to on July 7 since for me I am all up to date with
everything on the Window eyes side. I tried looking it up but could not
find anything about the authorization numbers or how many computers can
I put the home addition on. As far as the pro side am not going to get
it cause I don't work in a commercial environment. So if anyone has any
info please email me. Thank you.

This is getting really old and quite boring. All that is happening here is
rampant speculation and scare mongering by a few people who either work for
JAWS or have so little to do with their lives, they find this amusing. It
looks like a full on campaign to undermine Window -Eyes with nothing in the
way of evidence to support the conjectures. And FYI, developers age and
retire. People move on to other jobs, get promoted and sometimes leave the
industry altogether. It doesn't mean they can't be replaced by equally
talented individuals.

If you want to talk about rationality, don't make assertions unless you have
proof to back it up. Sorry but comments like some unknown person said so in
a forum or where particular links may or may not lead isn't evidence. Now if
you have a press release or company statement, I'll be happy to listen
further.

Finally, it is quite telling that these rumours all come from the same few
people. What does this suggest?

people will still use it no matter what you say.

It always amazes me when smart folks (like on this list) prefer a

Window-Eyes to continue and compete with JFW.  Why would they do that?

There are 3 options to check out: Narrator on Windows 10, NVDA, and
VoiceOver. So, get real and get to work.

I suppose those of you who believe that Window-Eyes will stay around
also believe that the health care bill that passed the House last

everybody as promised by Trump instead of leaving 24 million folks
without any health care.

I found very little about either podcast to give me even the smallest twinge

seem to be the revolutionary new idea for which I will be expected to give
eternal thanks for. The software engineers must have lost a lot of sleep in
order to come up with that 21st century break through. Good enough idea and
useful, but come on chaps, not really worth the price of an SMA
 
To be fair, there was also mention of further development in the support of

Hello Window-Eyes users.  Sky here.  I wanted to update you guys on What's
been happening at VFO Group, Particuarly in regards to Zoomtext, and
Window-eyes. In September, 2 editions of FSCast came out regarding JAWS 18.
One of the features that will be in JAWS 18 will be a talking mouse support.
The guys at VFO group has said that They have plans to put the talking mouse
support in Zoomtext, and make JAWS work with it. This made me laugh, as
first of all, Zoomtext already has Window-eyes in it, called Fusion,
secondly, Zoomtext, from my understanding, already has built in mouse
support already with Fusion. No menschen of Window-eyes or even Fusion.  In
the next FSCast, VFO went into more details on JAWS 18 and Zoomtext. What is
going to happen is that in Zoomtext 11, JAWS and Zoomtext will be working
together. I can honestly tell you that they also plan to put in a talking
mouse support for MAGic, which will be released in 2017. This is not a good
sign, and besides, Zoomtext and JAWS, would cost a lot more to buy, than it
would cost to buy Zoomtext Fusion. At no point in the two FSCasts do they
menschen what's going to happen with Window-eyes.

 

If you guys would like to take a look at the two FSCasts, go to

Ain't this simply just too funny.

Go pay a thousand dollars for a screen reader, and then you have to use 
a freeware one to get things installed. No, guys, this time I am not 
here to complain, simply just think it to be a smiler.

One thing the makers of the paid-for screen readers now aday may want to 
consider, is if it would not have been an idea to have a somehow light 
version of the screen reader, that would kick in when installing things. 
Let us have all the jingles and bells, when we need it, but let us have 
a screen reader that helps us out when all we need is speech.

To tell the user to go and get another screen reader, so as to have 
their paid-for product up running; well, to a less trained new user, may 
seem not just strange, but directly get them worried.

Just thought to throw the idea on the board, even if we have had it 
there before. But relying on the amount of messages seen on the list the 
last few days, in this regard, tells me something might be wanted to be 
a bit more smooth running in the future. BTW, has NVDA been translated 
into all the languages supported by Jaws and Window-Eyes? Or, would we 
end up with a user in a foreign language, having to pay for his screen 
reader in his language, but use a non-translated version of NVDA for his 
installation tweaking? That at least, from many years of training 
non-English users, I could say would throw a multitude off the wagon.

Subject: Introducing Window-Eyes 9.3.1

Get Built-in Optical Character Recognition and a Faster User Experience with 
Window-Eyes 9.3

Window-Eyes 9.3 is now available providing customers with the ability to 
recognize text from files or the screen with built in Optical Character 
Recognition. This version also offers a more reliable and stable user 
experience that will help maximize your productivity at work, home, and school.
Keep reading to learn more about the features and enhancements in Window-Eyes 
9.3:

Extract Text from Files, Images and the Screen Quickly and Easily

*Recognize text in inaccessible scanned PDF files.

*Recognize text from images in .bmp, .jpg, .png, and .tiff formats.

*Choose from several different kinds of file types to recognize, 
including .txt, .html, .xml, and .zip.

*If Office is installed, you can also OCR documents ending in .docx, 
.pptx, and .xlsx.

*Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files can be recognized, including text 
found in WordArt to ensure readability.
All-New Read to End

*Read-to-end has been completely rewritten to provide the most 
responsive and accurate reading experience.

*When read-to-end is stopped, it will start again from the word that 
was last spoken to help save time and increase efficiency.

*If a Braille display is connected, Braille output will remain in sync 
with speech as documents are read aloud.

*Hot keys used to increase or decrease speech are much more responsive, 
enabling users to more easily read documents in the manner they prefer.
Microsoft Office

*Improved reading of all spell check dialogs in Office 2010, 2013, and 
2016.

*Responsiveness of the Outlook 2010, 2013, and 2016 inbox under Windows 
10 has been improved to make reading email faster.

*Outlook's conversation view in 2010, 2013, and 2016 is now supported 
so that users can group messages with the same subject enabling reading of all 
messages within a thread quickly and easily.

*If Window-Eyes was restarted while Outlook was open, message 
virtualization would stop functioning until Outlook was restarted. This issue 
has been fixed.

*When a PowerPoint slideshow started, and Window-Eyes was set to 
automatically read the entire document, only the content of the first slide 
would be spoken. This has been fixed.

*If the version of Window-Eyes for users of Microsoft Office was in 
use, and the Office 365 sign-in window was closed without first entering any 
text, Window-Eyes would crash. This has been resolved.

*Other miscellaneous fixes.
Mouse Improvements

*The physical mouse now reads UIA and IA2 programs, which improves the 
reading experience in programs such as web browsers and modern Windows apps.

*A hot key to continue a mouse search in reverse has been added.

*Window-Eyes can now read an entire line or only a word under the 
pointer as the physical mouse moves across the screen.

*The mouse can now be set to read instant, hover, or no echo when 
moving the mouse around the screen. If the user sets it to hover, the amount of 
time can be adjusted before the information under the mouse is spoken. This 
allows low vision users better control over what they hear when the mouse moves 
around the screen.

*Other miscellaneous fixes.
Other Fixes

*Responsiveness in the Windows 10 File Explorer has been improved.

*Quickly check the status of wireless network connections with a single 
hot key.

*Responsiveness for Eloquence, eSpeak, RealSpeak, Vocalizer, and 
Vocalizer Expressive synthesizers has been significantly improved.

*The WE cursor (which allows you to explore the screen without moving 
the mouse pointer) has been renamed to the invisible cursor to better reflect 
its functionality.

*The QuickStart Wizard has been replaced with a new app called Setup 
Wizard providing a new visual interface and more options to help users get 
started using Window-Eyes.

*The app update notification options that are displayed when updates 
are available have been expanded to include a tone, dialog box, tooltip, or any 
combination of the three.  This enables users to select how they want to be 
notified of app updates.

*Support has been added for the Handy Tech Active Star, Handy Tech 
Modular, and BAUM VarioUltra displays.

*Numerous stability fixes and performance enhancements have been added.

Now, I can get the download started from the Upgrade option in the Help menu.  
However, after the "install new braille displays screen", I am told that I 
can't upgrade the currently installed version, which is the latest 9.2 version.

Re: Red Hot News from Ai Squared!

i totally agree.

Subject: Re: Red Hot News from Ai Squared!

Only thing I don't get, is why you would like to put any kind of teaser 
out like this. Seems your screen reader needs more attention, and things 
need a brush. Then to flush the market with a ton of teasers, "look what 
we may bring soon", "Just wait till next year", and so forth, seems no 
less than frustrating.

besides, If this was meant to be a non-textual teaser, with only some 
kind of iconic or even grapical appearance, why post it to a list that 
mainly is trafficated by more or less blind people. Instead of teasing, 
all you accomplished was to frustrate. Honestly, that is no beneficial 
business approach.

I do second the request, that you please keep this list freed from any 
more of such stuff. We have enough complaints about people posting 
Off-Topic matters here, let alone that we now have to deal with even the 
list-managers themselves putting out mails that are nothing but useless. 
You know, that is actually another version of what in the computer world 
is named SPAM. Unwanted, non-requested and often useless emails that 
float into your mailbox. If the owners of this list find there is a bit 
too little traffic on the list, why not put out something readable, 
informative, and REAL. Stop all that "Stay tuned and we may happen to 
show you what we can do" stuff. Get back to your customers, when you 
have things ready, and when you are willing to share it in a manner that 
your customers actually know to read. You, AISquared if any, should know 
what your screen reader can perform. You would have absolutely no excuse 
for throwing out mails like this, then telling the market "oh, sorry, we 
did not make it accessible". Please, abstain from any more of this stuff.

Among others, I did let the synth chatter away, for a minute or two, 
trying to figure what it all was about. I immediately recognized it as 
html-code, but sometimes you can figure a thing or two, from the few 
pieces of text in between the code. This time, a clear waiste of time, 
and afterwards, a long line of complaints. And when you come back with 
further info on the matter, I really still am scratching my hair off, to 
figure what it all was about, or meant to say. Your explanation, Jeremy, 
simply gave NO meaning whatsoever. What was the whole message trying to 
convey? That you had too much leasure time at work, or is it possible we 
are to take this teaser seriously, and hope for an anouncement in the 
near future about some exciting news from the screen reader front? If 
the latter, why did you not just tell us so, in plain readable text? 
even when you were to explain the flaw? Just wondering.

Time to get back to what this list - the way I understand it - is 
purposed for. Anyone else have some meaningful questions on how to 
operate the screen reader?

Re: For those with speech loss and crash issues

2015-06-29 Thread john pitts via Talk
well all i can say, is that if you pay good money for a program, you expect it 
to work properly, that’s why  i have stopped using it, i for 1 don’t like the 
new copy and paste feature, that comes with the latest window eyes, and of 
course the fact that it crashes when ever an email comes in when you are in 
windows live mail, doesn’t help matters, just my 2 pence worth, all the best, 
john.

Subject: For those with speech loss and crash issues

The crashing problem has been a topic for discussion on the list for 
quite a while now but I can not remember anyone from Ai Squared making 
any constructive comment on the subject.   i.e. Can they duplicate the 
problem? Has the problem been solved for the next release?

In my case, the loss of speech or crashing happens mainly when using IE 
11 and FF.

Hello Everyone

This morning when I booted up my desktop, I got the following:

Browse mode enhanced does not support the version of Window-eyes you 
are running.  For more information on up grading please visit www.aisquared.com
I am running WE 9.1 on a win7  machine.  Does anyone know what this 
is about?  Has 9.2 been released on the quiet?

Mike.
