Hi Paul!

Thanks for not think too badly of me, and giving me the information.

Maybe i should think about getting it, because sometimes i forget my passwords.

Is it easy to use and install?

I use 1Password. I use an iPhone and a Windows 10 computer. My passwords are accessible from all of my devices.

Good Afternoon

I will preface this message by saying that I am a former low vision user who has become a non vision user and sort of new to many things. Raille displays is one of those where I am absolutely clueless are there any online resources for some sort of primer on the basics of them? Also I am in the market for one so my basic question is since I am purchasing one on my own and budget is of concern I am looking for a second hand model. Having said that do braille displays become obsolete? Meaning where newer operating systems don’t support them etc…I am looking at the Focus line but looking at older generation models because of price point. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Joe

A password manager is a program that helps store your passwords for different websites so it can fill them in for you. They will have a master password you have to enter, then select the website from your saved list and it will put the password in for you. Something like that. I've not used one yet, but that is my basic understanding.
It doesn't have any connection to protecting against viruses or anything.
HTH,

It’s implemented automatically with the install of the latest update to JAWS 2018.

Michael and all:

I know this is covered in an earlier FS podcast (I think it’s FS cast 150), but is this new OCR recognition feature automatically installed with the latest Jaws 2018 build, or must you take some specific steps to implement it?

I’m currently using Jaws 2018 version 1802.78 on a windows 7 laptop here.

Hi there!  I would agree that this is a nifty feature within JAWS.  This eliminates the need to find the option to OCR the document.  It works very well!

Good Afternoon Folks

Today I had to scan a document and send it to someone via email. After the scanned document came into my email I opened the attachment to verify that I scanned the document correctly. Normally I would use OCR within JAWS to scan and read the PDF file. However, today when it opened it gave me the warning that it was blank and asked me if I wanted to have JAWS OCR it. It may seem trivial but knowing that  you only have to hit enter and off it goes is really nice. I assume this came in the last update and it mentions Fusion so it works with Fusion as well. Again it seems trivial as it only saves you a couple of keystrokes but when you anticipate that it makes for more productivity. Sliced bread eat your heart out.
