It is with deep regret, as Managing Director, I have to announce the ceasing of trading of T&T Consultancy Ltd. T&T, a UK owned company funded exclusively by Tracey and Terry Clasper and Tracey Corfield, have been involved in the assistive technology arena since March 1999. As well as providing a broad range of services to people with Assistive Technology needs within the UK, the company has also been responsible for developing a range of products, the most well known of which is J-Say, technology which without doubt makes a huge difference to the lives of many individuals with a challenging mix of needs.! This work we could not of achieved without having a dedicated team of UK based employees, past and current, a terrific US commercial partner in the shape of Next Generation Technologies, and a group of highly dedicated unpaid individuals the world over who have been involved in the testing of our products. However over the past year it has become more difficult, primarily due to the challenges placed upon us by the UK economy, to sustain our operation, and it is for this reason, and this reason alone, that a decision has been made to call it a day! On behalf of everyone involved in our company over the past 13 years, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every person who has been a customer of T&T. We thank you for allowing us to be of service to you in whatever way we have been, and we hope we have, in some small way, made a difference to the way you use and interact with assistive technology in your life! However whilst on the one hand I feel saddened by this announcement , it is not all bad news! Two staff members who fully embrace the goals and objectives that T&T Consultancy held so highly, and who have been working with us for many years, are, I'm delighted to say, intending to take forward many aspects of the business. Under the name of Astec Assistive Technology Solutions limited, Simon and Catherine Pool have begun trading in their own right within the assistive technology arena. Building on their relationships with customers and clients of T&T Consultancy, the company is now, with immediate effect, providing training, software, hardware and support for many individuals and businesses. Astec will take forward and continue to develop the many products which T&T Consultancy created, such as J-Say, J-Tools and many others and will strive to train and support existing and new customers alike. For more information regarding Astec, please contact them at enquiries@astec-at.co.uk I wish Catherine and Simon all the very best in this new venture, and urge you, should you feel the new company can assist you in any way, to contact them.

Hi Mike:

Many thanks for that last info especially, as it immediately got Jaws to announce the words "The Jaws for Windows Support List" straight after the Sender's Name, Subject, Date and Time in both of your recent emails! Interestingly, my other Lists have always announced an abbreviated version of the Names of their respective Lists. That still applies, but there is now an additional longer form of those Lists Names in the Header, as a consequence of the options that your suggestion has given me. However, it now gives me a clue to find out from just where the abbreviated form of the respective List Names is initiated. Thanks again, Colin Fell (New Zealand)

Adobe digital edition 1.8 preview 4 May 30
Emily Beckstein <nbeck18@...>
I'm new to the list. I'm trying to use JAWS 12.0 with what I am told is
Adobe digital edition 1.8 preview 4 May 30, and am having issues with navigation commands. For example when I hit control while JAWS is in say-all mode the cursor goes back to the beginning of the page. It also won't let me use the commands to move by sentence or paragraph. Could somebody tell me if there is an alternate set of navigation commands, do I need to use a different version of JAWS and/or Adobe digital edition, or is there anything that would make it more user friendly?

Re: JFW and Bullet Announcements
Mike B. <mb69mach1@...>
Hi Darran,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Before when I helped you it was for Jaws10. These steps are for Jaws13. In the default Settings Center in punctuation I show 9 different kinds of bullits using Jaws 13.0.924. In this list of punctuation marks, numbers 114 throu 122, are the different types of bullits. When making changes in Customize Punctuation, if you do not want Jaws to speak/recognize a particular punctuation mark you want to choose the " all " selection. You will have 4 radio buttons to arrow up or down through. They are none, some, most, & all. In these selections they work backwards than what you would think. For example; If you choose " none " for the dollar sign, Jaws will speak / recognize every dollar sign in whatever you are reading. On the other hand, if you choose the " all " radio button, Jaws will not speak / recognize any dollar signs. To make a change to a particular punctuation sign follow the steps below. 1. Press Jaws/insert key + 6 on the number row for the Settings Center. 2. Press control,shift, +D , to open the default Settings Center. 3. Arrow down to Puntuation & press right arrow to open, & arrow down 1 time to Customize Punctuation & press the spacebar to open. Or type Punctuation into the search box, & wait a couple of seconds for the list to populate. Arrow down to Customize Punctuation... & press the spacebar to open. Do not press enter on Customize Punctuation... because this will close the Settings Center. 4. You are now in a list of punctuation marks. Arrow down the list and when you have the punctuation mark you want to change highlighted, tab 1 time to the radio buttons that I mentioned earlier. 5. Keeping in mind what I mentioned earlier about these choices working backwards, check the box in this list, in your case not wanting any bullits spoken, choose the all button. 6. Now, if you want to make a change to another punctuation mark, shift tab back to the list and highlight a different punctuation mark, tab back to the radio buttons and check the box you prefer. 7. After you are done making your changes tab to okay and press enter to save your changes & close the Settings Center. Now, I hope that you are not as confused as I am after typing all of this. LOL Hope this has helped. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my iLazyBoy.

From: Darran Ross To: jfw@lists.the-jdh.com Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2012 9:24 AM Subject: JFW and Bullet Announcements Hi List. In the past, I was greatly helped by another list member to resolve this issue, but I've checked and checked and I can't turn up his list of instructions. So I'm back again! I don't like hearing all the bullet announcements when reading on the web or in emails etc, and I know there's somewhere in the settings I can go to alter this type of thing. The options are to hear all, some most and none. But I've looked and I simply can't seem to find the correct section. And this is using the latest version of JAWS. To hear no bullet announcements, I think I have to select "all", is this correct? Does seem rather counter-intuitive though! Anyway, can anyone help me resolve this? Many thanks in advance.

Re: Firefox and Crashes
douglas richard dexheimer
Recently I started having problems changing the about:config file to make Firefox more responsive on sites that use Flash content. Once I type in the URL and select the "I'll be careful" button, my system sort of locks where it is, and I can't tab to the filter editfield, or it takes a long struggle to get there. There's a warning message saying changing these settings could harm my computer or affect my privacy. I should be sure of what I'm doing before continuing. As I'm tabbing through the fields I hear "search bookmarks and history," "search using ask," "about:config tab," etc., like the site is trying to load and not responding. Anyone have an idea how to fix this whenever I need to change the configurations in my browser? Thanks.

By the way, I've been having to change Firefox versions from time to time to listen to certain audio streaming sites that don't work on a newer version of FF, and have to check the config file to make sure it's set to false. Regarding trying to install the Adobe Flash Player I was having trouble with, my brother did it remotely with a software program called LogMeIn; he clicked on the appropriate button using a mouse and got the player downloaded successfully for me. It looks like the plugin finder or Flash installer is totally inaccessible for the blind user. Thanks one and all for your feedback and suggestions for making things more accessible to people using the keyboard and a screenreader. God bless.

I went to Ninite, checked the appropriate boxes and ran the installer two or three times, but when I went to the station I was looking at, I wound up in the same mess I described last night. The installer showed Flash as being up to date, but when I go to the site for the station I'm still prompted to install the missing plugin. In the Ninite program I found Flash but not Adobe Flash Player. What am I missing? Is it a compatibility issue with the version of Firefox I'm using at the moment? I went to Desktop but didn't find the player there, then I went to , Start Menu, Run and typed in the name of the Adobe Flash Player, but my entry was rejected. I tried the Search feature in Start, but it didn't find the program on my system. Thanks for any further input.

P.S. Last night when I first tried installing the Adobe Flash upgrade from the Adobe website, the installation was slow and eventually interrupted, after which I got an error message saying the installation failed because the application was already running. Before that I was prompted to close all other Firefox links and then retry, and upon retrying I got that error. Any further help appreciated.

JFW and Bullet Announcements
Darran Ross <darran.ross@...>
Hi List.
In the past, I was greatly helped by another list member to resolve this issue, but I've checked and checked and I can't turn up his list of instructions. So I'm back again! I don't like hearing all the bullet announcements when reading on the web or in emails etc, and I know there's somewhere in the settings I can go to alter this type of thing. The options are to hear all, some most and none. But I've looked and I simply can't seem to find the correct section. And this is using the latest version of JAWS. To hear no bullet announcements, I think I have to select "all", is this correct? Does seem rather counter-intuitive though! Anyway, can anyone help me resolve this? Many thanks in advance.
