Re: Migrating to Firefox from Internet Explorer
Bill White <billwhite92701@...>
Hi, Joe. I don’t hear any sounds when clicking links or any other navigation. It is not built into firefox, and I don’t see an extension for adding any additional navigation sounds.

Good Morning Bill,
Thank you. So this only gives a sound for downloads? There is no way to add sounds for other navigation such as entering on links etc? Or does Firefox have that built in now?

Hi, Joe. Navigational Sounds is no longer available through the AddOn Manager of Firefox. This is because Navigational Sounds no longer works with Firefox Quantum (version 60 and up).
Instead, 1. open Firefox. 2. Press CONTROL plus SHIFT plus A to open the AddOn Manager. 3. Tab to the list of available categories within the AddOn Manager. 4. The category you want to open is Extensions. When you find it, press ENTER. 5. TAB to the search box and enter
download sound.
6. The AddOn you want to install is:
Download Sound1.4By BPS Plays a sound or utters a text using speech synthesis when a download is completed.This simple extension plays a sound or utters a text using speech synthesis when a download is completed.
This is a deceptive description, because, as installed, it just plays a simple ding sound, once the AddOn is installed.
This is the best way to get a download sound for Firefox downloads.

I am about to make the switch to Firefox from Internet Explorer. If I remember correctly from a couple years ago in one of the FS free webinars on the topic there was a navigational sounds add on. Is that add on still available? Also any recommendations for any other helpful add ons or tips for migration?

Re: Windows 10 Question
You can disable the backstage as well, but F12 is a good option and I use it all the time.

Also, you may like it better if you put Excel and Word if that is what you mostly use on the task bar, make sure you know in what position it is in, e.g. third from the left and fourth from the left, then use Alt+Windows Key+3 and Alt+Windows Key+4 respectively to bring up the jump list which contains your recent documents.

Re: Migrating to Firefox from Internet Explorer
Gerald Levy
No, there is no other add-ons for Firefox Quantum that plays these
additional sounds, nor is this feature built in. Besides Navigational
Sounds, other add-ons like Webvisum and Plain Old Favorites also do not work
with FirefoxQuantum, which, as far as I’m concerned, represents a major step
backwards in terms of accessibility with JAWS. And Firefox Quantum only
works with JAWS 2018 and not with earlier versions. The last version of
Firefox that still works with Navigational Sounds and the other add-ons is
Firefox 52 ESR.

Re: Accessing drop down menus
Steve Matzura
That's a hard one, as different Websites use different methods. If the drop-down menu shows up as a button, JAWS sometimes says collapsed," or "menu." Tap your space bar and this menu will open. You can then use down-arrow to browse its choices. You may also get the JAWS sound that indicates you've gone into forms mode. This is normal, but it doesn't happen all the time. It all depends on exactly what kind of control that menu drop-down is.
