cannot install jaws 2018
Marvin Hunkin <neilmarvin@...>
Hi. Have had multiple tries to install jaws, and 2018 and it gets to 70 80 90% then says the jaws could not be installed the jaws start module or start option could not be started or installed and error code 800. Can you fix, is there a work around for this or a patch. Running windows 10 64 bit pro 1709. Any help. Have tried multiple times and also did reach out to Microsoft disability support and they could not install. And did download a new copy to my laptop. Very frustrating. Using nvda at the moment. Thanks.

Re: Breaking Word document into sections
Ann Byrne
I don't remember for sure, but I don't think so. I think JAWS reads the first column to the end of the page, then the first column on the next page. To move from column to column with JAWS is alt+I think down arrow. Sometimes I use the JAWS cursor to read across the page in order to orient myself. Pressing insert+f1 will tell you if there are columns.

Re: Finding FaceBook Unfriend Button
Ashleigh Piccinino
Do you have a block button? It’s the way I accomplish this when I do/haven’t done it lately though. I’ve been using the regular site as well, not mobile. After you press the block button, you need to confirm it on the next page. When you do, the person/entity is unfriended. Or, at least, they should be.

By breaking up columns, do you mean that if a page has two columns, the text will then be read line by line down the page, the first line of the second column following the last line of the first column? Thanks. Marilyn

Hello, You can, when the message is opened, move it with the following keys. CTRL alt and v will get one into the move dialogue, and tab to “all folders” if you’ve not landed on that first. Arrow up and down until you get to your desired folder, and press enter. To check that the message is moved, tab to the folders button. Of course, all this assumes you’re using the mail app. Go to the folder desired/where you moved the message and check if it’s there. In outlook 2016, and without opening the message, CTRL alt and v still moves your message. Only this time, you’re in the inbox itself and don’t have to go to all folders. Up and down arrow until you reach the folder of choice to move to. Press enter, and you’ve got it. To check, press CTRL y to get into your tree view of folders. If you’ve placed the message into an inbox folder, right arrow to open the inbox submenu if it’s not already done first. JAWS will say “inbox”, the number of messages inside and either closed or open. Need any more help? Don’t hesitate to write me off list or write to the group as well., Thank you, Ashleigh S.

Re: Going off the tracking grid article
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
Going away from gmail will not make much difference, if you don't want to be tracked then sell your smartphone, computer and any other possibly connected devices you have, then buy only in stores using cash and even then it will not be perfect. We live in a world where enjoying the conveniences of technology mean that we have to give up a certain amount of privacy and you may as well accept that. Trying to "make it harder" doesn't really work if you want to be online, buy stuff from Amazon, do Google searches etc. You just waste a lot of time trying to outfox these very smart companies who ultimately get what they want whether you have a gmail account or not. You might as well save yourself the time and effort, use the normal precautions about what you click on, what phone calls you accept and if it sounds or looks weird then chances are it is and it's better to hang up or press delete. How accepting the vast majority of people are becomes obvious with the recent Facebook privacy stuff. Yes, a bunch of people deleted their profiles, most opf them were probably people who didn't use Facebook that much to begin with. Now a couple of weeks have passed and Facebook stocks are going up again, it's all forgotten and if not forgotten then it's accepted and everybody hopes that maybe a few good things come of it with respect to Facebook being a bit more careful or the government implementing a few new safeguards.

Software to convert scanned images to PDF files
Dave Durber
First of all, thank you to those who responded to my initial post on this thread.
As I mentioned previously, I have only had the Canon MG 2500 for a week, so I have some learning to do, before I can use the photocopying and scanning functions confidently. In 2014, I bought a Canon CanoScan Lide 210 scanner. I only installed its driver, so I could use Kerzweil 1000 with it. Yesterday, I installed the rest of the software which was included on the CD. On the front of the scanner, are several buttons, which perform designated functions. Obviously, the buttons do not work without the software being installed. With the software installed, After some experimenting, I found that the button on the extreme left, is the Scan to PDF function. You can scan a single page or multiple pages. The only thing you have to do if you are scanning multiple pages, is to change the page, then press ENTER, to activate the Next button, to scan each page. Once you have finished scanning all the pages, Press ENTER, to activate the Finish Button. When you activate the Finish Button, the software automatically saves all the images to a single image file, then converts the image file to a pdf file. the two files are saved in the same folder. I then opened the file in Kerzweil 1000, and was happy to hear the entire text of the document with great accuracy. Of course, as we all know, that is not always going to be the case. Sincerely: Dave Durber

Rollback RX Home
Tom <tomcat509@...>
Hi,
Using: latest W10Home 64 bit, Jaws 2018 and Rollback RX Home Has anyone got experience with using Rollback Home, the free version,who could give me some pointers in its use? I can't discover how to delete an old snapshot so a new one can be made. If a new snapshot is attempted, the programme says to delete an old one first but no hint how this can be done. The setting section can be apparently setup so an old snapshot will be automatically deleted and a new snapshop made but so far,after setting it to 4 days, nothing has happened. Google searches on the subject seems to only deal with the professional version and not the free one. Thanks for any assistance. Tom

Are you using Windows 7 or Windows 10? In Windows 7 NumPad 7 or Home would move the Jaws cursor to the top right of whatever Window you were in if the Jaws cursor was activated. This may still be the case in Windows 10 except in Windows 10 the Jaws cursor does not read very much any more in many situations, that is just the way Windows 10 works and not the fault of the Jaws cursor.

Interesting and not intuitive. Does that mean that JAWS does not offer the same kind of screen reviewing that Window Eyes did where I could use keys to navigate up and down the screen with the pointer? These various modes are my bigger learning hurdle right now with JAWS.

I don’t know if this is what you’re looking for, but there are two keystrokes in JAWS:

Hi all, I have a couple programs at work that do not work well with speech. In Window-Eyes I could put the mouse pointer to the top left of the program window or dialog box, then arrow down to read some status lines or get close to the edit fields I need.
With JAWS, I’m getting proficient with routing the JAWS cursor to PC, but I cannot figure out if there is a way to get my mouse pointer to the top left or bottom left corners of the focused window. With Window Eyes, I just had to hit the 7 on the numpad. Is there a method?
Thanks.
