Looking for a Jaws accessible appointment reminder app/service
Cristóbal
Hello list, I was wondering if there are any business owners out there or folks who deal with subcontractors and have to manage appointments and confirmations. I’ve got a business where I broker out work and need to confirm appointments and so on. So far, with Outlook (Office 365 for business) and Google Voice, I’ve been managing it with emails and texts, but I’d like to get something a little more automated and reduce the manual workload. Right now, it’s juggle emails, check and cross check who’s confirmed, follow up with a vendor who hasn’t confirmed, etc. I’m also in the process of taking on a contract for a much larger workload and would really like to have something in place before things become unmanageable. I am a heavy Outlook user and yes, I know there are meeting and reminder functions in Outlook, but my Outlook calendar notes have information such as contract numbers other vendor info and stuff in general I’d prefer not to share with my sub vendors for their assigned appointments as there’s no reason for them to see that sort of data and my notes. In any event, does anyone know of anything out there that is Jaws friendly and as a plus integrates with the Office eco system? Outlook, etc.? I’m sure some of you have had experience with this sort of thing. Where you may get an email or text reminding you of an upcoming engagement with the option to click confirm/decline or if texting, reply 1 for yes or 2 for no and so on. As an idea, I’ll likely be working with upwards of 300 appointments a month throughout the state of California. So anything that can automate this task is something I’m very interested in. Below is one such option I was checking out. I don’t mind paying as long as it accomplishes what I need and cuts down on my having to chase down confirmations. https://www.goreminders.com/pricing Again, any input or observations and experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Cristóbal

Re: JAWS not speaking on Win 10 start-up screen

I have turned off showing the lock screen in GPEdit (this requires Windows 10 Professional) on my laptop and on 4 PC's at my business and all of them now boot directly to the screen where I am prompted to enter my password, i.e. when Jaws starts speaking I am already in the password field or, in the case of my laptop, in the field to enter my PIN.

You mentioned you also did this so I am not sure why it doesn't work. You also mentioned doing something to the registry so maybe it interferes? If you have Windows 10 Professional, follow these steps: 1. Press the Windows key and type GPEdit followed by enter to bring up the group policy editor. 2. Type "A" to go to Administrative Templates or arrow down to it and expand it with the right arrow 3. Arrow down once to Control Panel and again press right arrow to expand it 4. Arrow down once to Personalization and press tab to get into the list of options. 5. Arrow down 3 times to "Do Not display the lock screen", it will most likely say "Not Configured". 6. Press enter and tab twice past "previous Setting" and "Next Setting" to the "Not Configured" radio button, arrow to "Enable" and then press tab 4 times until you get to the "OK" button and activate it. 7. Close the Group Policy Editor with Alt+F4, reboot your computer and see if it worked. Regards, Sieghard

No, it won’t help, I’m on Highlighted and it still does it.
All the best

Hi Cristóbal,
One thought is maybe your screen echo has changed. While in Outlook press, Jaws key + S, to tobble through settings. They are Highlighted, All, & None. It sounds like it might be set on, All, so switch it to, Highlighted, and see if that helps. Take care. Mike.

Hello list, I’ve been having this issue for a while now. I can’t recall when it started, but regardless, it happens every single time I switch folders in Outlook 2016. Be it a main inbox or subfolder, etc. I get the below message every time I switch folders. List box Connectivity to your server. Connected I don’t need to be informed that I’m connected all the time. Any ideas on how to stop this? I’ve got 6 email accounts configured with a mixture of imap and exchange. This will occur regardless if I switch to an imap folder. Anyway, I’m on Jaws 2018 and recently started to play with the JFW 2019 beta. This exact same behavior is occurring in the beta so I know at this point it’s not just my JFW 2018 version. I’m sure it has to do with a setting I’m not aware of or have perhaps by accident enabled. Thanks, Cristóbal

JAWS not speaking on Win 10 start-up screen
Edward Green
Hi all,
I'm running the JAWS 2019 beta on an HP Spectre laptop using the April update of Windows 10. When my PC starts up, a screen comes up showing different wallpapers. To get to the username and password field, I have to press escape. JAWS won't speak on that wallpaper screen regardless of how long I leave it there, but does when I press escape and the log on screen shows. I have JAWS set to speak at the log on screen. Does anyone know how to get JAWS to speak on that first start-up screen, or even better, turn off that screen? I had thought that this screen was the lock screen, and followed instructions online to create a registry key in the hopes of disabling it. I also went into personalisation settings and turned off the lock screen at log on, but still no joy. I'd be grateful for any suggestions. Thanks, Ed

Re: May need alternative to Adobe Acrobat Reader

All right. Again I appreciate all the help that you gave me on this. Sometimes it doesn’t pay to just assume that following the default options is the best thing. I will remember this tip. Thanks again.
