Re: How To Stop Narrator And Magnifier From Automatically Starting When Booting Up Computer
Tom Behler
Sieghard:
Since this is my own personal computer, I do not have a pin.
At the log-on screen, after the Windows 7 start-up sound, I just click on my profile name, and, after a few seconds, I get the second startup sound.
At this point, Jaws does not consistently launch, either at the log-on screen, or at the beginning screen after I’ve clicked on my profile.

Tom, do you use a Microsoft Id and password to sign in or did you set up a PIN? Have you tried to press enter after giving your computer a bit of time to boot up? On my Windows 10 laptop Jaws also does not usually speak at the logon screen until I press enter, then it asks me for my PIN.

Thanks very much.
I'm still seeing the magnifier automatically come up though, and don't know how to eliminate that issue.
Also, I have now upgraded to the latest build of Jaws 18, and am finding that my failure to re-start at the login screen issue has re-appeared.
I have the box checked to start the computer at the log-on screen, as well as the box checked to always start Jaws for this user.
I wonder if the automatic activation of the magnifier is creating the failure of Jaws to consistently start.
Someone on the list recently posted a detailed set of instructions for dealing with the inconsistent Jaws start issue at the logon screen, but I can't seem to find them in my saved files.
Any help with this continuing issue would be appreciated.

Hello, everyone.
I am experiencing a very strange problem when booting up my current windows 7 laptop.
Whenever I boot up the computer, I often have to go through the process 2 or 3 times in order for Jaws to start speaking. And, when this happens, I now also automatically get launched into Narrator and something called the magnifier. The magnifier is set at 200%.
I can exit out of the magnifier and out of Narrator, but this is rather inconvenient to say the least.
How can I get things back to the point that, when booting up the computer, all that comes up is Jaws.
I’m using Jaws 17 here.

Re: softphones that work with JAWS?
James Homuth
We
have actual phones, but the accesibility of those phones is somewhat
questionable (I'll be able to poke at it more when I go back into the office on
Monday). I'm banking on being able to make the desk phone I have do my tellings,
but in the event I haven't, I've already got clearance to deploy a softphone -
and I'll be one of a few people who've decided they prefer going that route.
Still, I'd rather not kill my cell phone's battery dealing with work things, and
if I'm gonna need to pay for a client anyway I'd rather it be for a platform I'm
already required to be attached to.

Even the expensive VT-Go that was mentioned which, by the way, seems to have a dedicated “accessibility version” has a trial period, you can download and it’s fully functional, but I think calls are limited to 2 minutes and there is an overall call limit of I think 20 calls.

No, you'd still need to roll your own features like that. But I find most hosted PBX solutions aren't worth what you pay them. For the same price you can put together a system you can actually controll. From:

Wow, this can get pretty expensive. On another note, which services would you recommend if you have any knowledge? What I am after is a hosted solution like Ringcentral. I quite like what Ringcentral offers, but their website was hopeless the last time I tried it, very poor accessibility with Jaws and even their iOS app was not accessible with Voiceover. I tried to explain to their customer service that a large company like Ringcentral should really improve this and offer good accessibility, but I didn't even get the impression the guy would pass this on up the chain. I would like something which is comprehensive as in offering a toll free number, either unlimited or significant incoming and outgoing North America wide calling, internet faxing and SMS via their app and of course calling via their app, voice mail, auto attendent, music on hold, extensions and all the usual stuff.

Hi folks,
My new job uses a VOIP phone that isn't exactly the most accessible. So because of that, I'm in the hunt for a halfway decent softphone. Anyone happen to know of one and wouldn't mind sharing details? Using JAWS 14, but will probably upgrade to 18 when work installs it on my machine.

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO SPOTIFY BLIND
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
John Martyn, who has DoItBlind.com is the developer of Spotifyblind,RhapsodyBlind and BlindTunes as well as scripts for OneNote. I just went to his website and it is a bit strange since he just has some informational text on there and a link to Blindspot.com who is doing scripts for Quickbooks. It sounds like he is involved in this and I’m not sure if he has dropped all his other proects because there are no links to download or learn about any of the other products he used to have.

Mich Verrier

I would like something which is comprehensive as in offering a toll free number, either unlimited or significant incoming and outgoing North America wide calling, internet faxing and SMS via their app and of course calling via their app, voice mail, auto attendent, music on hold, extensions and all the usual stuff.
Regards, Sieghard

Hi folks,
My new job uses a VOIP phone that isn't exactly the most accessible. So because of that, I'm in the hunt for a halfway decent softphone. Anyone happen to know of one and wouldn't mind sharing details? Using JAWS 14, but will probably upgrade to 18 when work installs it on my machine.
