I will never uninstall the shared components of JAWS, based on a recent experience. It is my thought that as long as you use any updates of JAWS, you do not want to ever uninstall the full version.
Recently, I was going to disconnect an old computer, so thought that I needed to uninstall the full version of Openbook. I wanted to still leave JAWS as I had other files to delete etc. When I uninstalled Openbook, I ended up with no speech, so, couldn't finish deleting files. I thought JAWS would still be okay, but not the case.

right. even if you have version 10 and want to install version 11, for example. the structure of the video intercept driver was upgraded in version 11, but there are components that are shared /used by 10 and 11.

JAWS 15 not detecting autocomplete on Excel 2013
Hi, using Windows 8, Microsoft Excel 2013 with JAWS 15 is not detecting autocomplete as I type the letter/s found on the rows above on the same column. I have turned off JAWS, restarted the computer, used default JAWS settings and no luck. This seems to be a JAWS 15 problem. Is anyone else having this problem with Excel 2013 and JAWS 15? I know it’s autocompleting because it’s there when I do the say current line keystroke and I have confirmed it with a sighted person. JAWS 15 is just not detecting the autocomplete therefore, it’s not reading it. This is slowing down my workflow. If anyone is having this problem or can check if there version of JAWS 15 and Excel 2013 is doing this please reply back. I spoke with Freedom scientific and they suggested I speak with Microsoft when it’s apparently a JAWS problem from what it seems. Thanks

Nicely put. Yes, you've answered your own question. When removing an older version, you need to retain shared components if you intend to keep an existing later version on your system.
However, if you're having problems with the later version, you may end up removing all existing versions and reinstalling the one, or ones, you wish to keep using. But it doesn't sound as though that's the problem. If it were, you'd remove all shared components as part of your effort to get rid of all traces of JAWS before starting over.

Re: Peachtree vs. quickBooks vs. PM Checkbook vs. Other Applications
I agree. Using QuickBooks, Peachtree or other similar programs for the most common task of check writing is unnecessary. QuickBooks is not a real, double-entry accounting program, is not widely used in school to teach real accounting, is not used for professional CPA level accounting services and is only used for mom-and-pop businesses. Using PM Checkbook for personal bookkeeping is just fine.

Hi,

Hello Nicole, and all. Speaking for those who haven't used an accounting software, or is using accounting software for the first time what program would suggest? I training many students on Jaws and windoweyes, and most of my clients are managing their home finances. Some use Excel, however, some just go on line at their bank. The question is, knowing client's needs and what they can afford what would you or anyone suggest on this list that is Affordable and useful to get your taxes done and if you're running a small business? Are there only two choices on what software to use? I made a comment on the prices after going to the web site for quickbooks, but I wasn't nocking the price. Depending on how much the actual Quickbooks software cost, then there are the scrips that goes with the software that Jaws or WindowEyes work with the software. Adaptive software is always going to be on the high end of the price scale. It has been for years. However, everyone on this list and others must know their limitations on what they can afford. This is just food for thought.

Subject: RE: quickBooks accessibility has arrived!
The two programs are built for different target markets, which is where the difference comes in. Quickbooks is targeted for folks that have little actual accounting training. It's a bookkeeping program. Peachtree is geared more towards folks with more accounting knowledge, so it does some higher level stuff accountants use for the more advanced tasks of an accounting job. This is why CPA's tend to like Peachtree over Quickbooks. But both will get bookkeeping done in their own individual way, so they're both worth scripting. As blind folks we face an uphill battle with getting accessibility, and the feeling I see is one of "thank the gods there's an option for us now." That's not accessibility, it's accommodation, and there's no reason in a fair world why all blind folks should be forced to use only one product while the rest of the world can use any one of several. Multiple products survive because people are different and have different ways of doing things and different ways of thinking. There is great value in allowing blind folks to have the same option instead of forcing them into using the same thing. When we have the same choice that a sighted person has in software products then we achieve parity with the sighted world and are no longer marginalized.

If you can develop this level of accessibility, John, -- and it truly is great what you have done here, then shouldn't Quick Books be mandated to provide this level of accessibility as part of their accounting package?
Once again, the blind are left having to pay extra to use a product that, for a few extra dollars in development cost could have and indeed, should have been included by the developer. Shame on Quicken.

If you can develop this level of accessibility, John, -- and it truly is great what you have done here, then shouldn't Quick Books be mandated to provide this level of accessibility as part of their accounting package?
Once again, the blind are left having to pay extra to use a product that, for a few extra dollars in development cost could have and indeed, should have been included by the developer. Shame on Quicken. Here is another task for advocacy groups both in the U. S. and Canada.

Re: free accessible data recovery software works with jaws
I would vouch for Recuba. I used it on my Dell drive that gave up the ghost on me and was able to extract the files I needed. I hadn't formatted it or anything though. The drive just went bad on me. Recuva is completely Jaws accessible and easy to use.

Re: quickBooks accessibility has arrived!
Anyone know if Quickbooks will print checks using pre-printed check blank stock? To me, that's pretty important for paying some bills.

Quickbooks is targeted for folks that have little actual accounting training. It's a bookkeeping program.

This is why CPA's tend to like Peachtree over Quickbooks. But both will get bookkeeping done in their own individual way, so they're both worth scripting. As blind folks we face an uphill battle with getting accessibility, and the feeling I see is one of "thank the gods there's an option for us now." That's not accessibility, it's accommodation, and there's no reason in a fair world why all blind folks should be forced to use only one product while the rest of the world can use any one of several. Multiple products survive because people are different and have different ways of doing things and different ways of thinking. There is great value in allowing blind folks to have the same option instead of forcing them into using the same thing.

We purchased it from Office Depot a couple of months ago. Despite the fact that it is a touch screen printer, all of the functions can be accessed through the HP software that you install. You can scan documents into a PDF format, and then read that PDF using your Open Book software. Or you can simply use Open Book to do this. This printer gives you a lot of flexibility, and for the money, it's a good printer. You can send faxes with it too.

I hope this question meets the criteria for this list. I use jaws, and also have openbook scanning software, latest version. My all-in-one scanner/printer is no longer working. Do any of you have any suggestions as to the best compatible all-in-one printer that will work with openbook. I am also using windows 8.0 on my laptop computer. I have been looking on the page at Freedom Scientific regarding recommended scanners, however; there seems to be very few options for the 4-in-one scanners and only one that is wireless. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Barbara Hansen --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
