Re: JAWS startup after logging in under Windows 10
Chris Chaffin
This is exactly what started happening to me at my work on a Windows 7 machine.

The only way I was able to get Jaws to start after logging in was to put the executable file in the startup folder as suggested. Chris

Re: mouse pad and jaws
David Moore
Hi Mark,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
With JAWS, nothing will be spoken when you trace around the touch pad. With Narrator, If you press Caps Lock+num Lock, you will toggel the function. You can hear what is spoken under your finger as you trace the touch pad if you turn that on in Narrator, and you can turn it back off with the same command. With NVDA, you get a lot of information when you trace your finger around the touch pad. Take care.

Re: Open office
David Moore
Hi,
I use Open Office with JAWS, and it is as good and accessible with JAWS,
for what I want to do, as MS Office since I am not in school anymore LOL!
Also Google results say that it is now accessible for screen readers. I'm
assuming that includes jaws. :-)

Re: Open office
It's been repeatedly stated on this particular forum that Open Office is accessible via JAWS. I can't say how "fully" qualifies as "fully" to any given user, but there are lots of folks here who are using Open Office as their suite of choice. Brian

Re: Deleting an account in Outlook 2013
James Homuth
You
need to be actually looking at the contents of your second account before you
can delete your first one. Deleting your first account will not be an option as
long as your first account is the one Outlook considers
active.

I have 2 accounts. I can read them with Jaws when Outlook first opens in the tree view. However, when I go to account settings, the account I wish to delete, which may have been my first one created, does not appear.

Lauren, I suspect that this is the account whose inbox is currently open. You cannot delete any account when any one of its folders is the one that has active focus. If you have only one account, this means that you cannot delete it until you have created a second account and have focus on that account in the tree view of messages before trying to delete the first one.

policy, the network admins would have to make changes. Your best bet would be to add the JAWS executeable to the start-up folder in windows. Here is how to do this: 1. Go to your Desktop, and copy the JAWS Icon to your clipboard. 2. Go to the Windows Run dialog, by pressing Windows plus the letter R. 3. In the run dialogue box, type the following minus the quotes: "Shell:Startup" 4. Paste the JAWS shortcut into the folder. 5. Restart your computer, and see if JAWS will start then. Good luck!

I'm currently running Jaws Professional 17.0.2007. I went to the page to If you're on the correct page, you'll find two combo boxes, one to select the voices (you want Vocalizer Expressive) and another to choose the language. Once you've done this, you should be able to navigate through the page to find the download links. The next step is to download the installer, run it, and follow the prompts to complete the installation. Finally, restart JAWS and select the new voice in your voice profile. I hope something in the above explanation helps you to move beyond whatever the problem might be.
