Hi, it's Annabelle. I know this might sound complicated, but I'm wondering, do any of you JAWS members out there know if there's a software that works with JAWS, with which I can manage customer accounts? When I start my company making products and services that are accessible for people of all abilities, I want to be able to have an accessible software for managing customers' information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, order numbers, and receipts, for when they want to purchase a product or service from my company. I guess you could say I'm thinking of a software for management of customers' orders. Are there any good business management softwares out there that work well with JAWS?

What kind of laptop do you have. If it isn't a Del computer, someone sighted needs to go into your BIOS or UEFI and turn off Media Keys, Action Keys, or Hot Keys, however it presents itself in your particular computer's BIOS or UEFI.

Jaws 2018 and Win 10 1809
Don H
My computer has updated itself to Win 10 1809. After the upgrade was complete I got a error message stating that fsatproxy.exe could not be started. I closed the dialog box stating this by hitting on the OK button. I then rebooted the computer and this message did not come up again. Jaws 2018 seems to be running ok.

first thing to check is the keyboard layout that the screen reader is set to use. the laptop layout should be set for the laptop, see if that makes a difference. second, you can enable keyboard help and press that key to see if it is identified as a home key. if you're using JAWS or NVDA, the command is insert+1 above the letters. this is a toggle to enable or disable the feature.

Hi, Jed. The Home key should say Home if it is pressed, if Access Keys are set to speak. If you're running NVDA, did the Home key speak before? If it is not speaking now, it's not the home key. Usually on a laptop, the Home key is the FN key plus the Left Arrow.

Re: Navigating Favorites With Chrome

I would uninstall the Google Chrome Browser, followed by a system Restart, then reinstall Chrome and see if that fixes it. I don't doubt that there are occasional webpages that contain scripting that hoses up the normal behavior of Chrome (and, potentially, other browsers) but you seem to be experiencing this far more frequently than anyone else does. There are sometimes idiosyncratic corruptions in a Chrome installation and an uninstall/reinstall can sometimes fix those. If you use Chrome with extensions, I would consider starting up with all extensions disabled and see if the behavior persists. If it doesn't, then use the "disable half" of your extension and restart Chrome to see if the behavior persists. If it does, then reenable all the ones you had disabled and disable the other half. When you restart, you should have the behavior disappear. Then start re-enabling by halves/disabling by halves until you zero in on the extension that's the culprit. It's the same concept as the Windows clean boot process where you keep doing stepwise elimination by halves to zero in on an issue-causing startup process. -- Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1803, Build 17134 A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep. ~ Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back

Re: Making JAWS announce shortcut sequences
Ann Byrne
The easy way to get to most of the most relevant JAWS commands is to jump to the start up wizzard with alt+h, then z. The goodies are there in a bunch, regardless of where they live in the menus.

Sometimes, I have better luck pressing Alt plus F to bring up my menu options in Chrome. I also use this followed by the letter B as a shortcut to find my list of book marks.

Thank you muchly; I guess that isn’t my original problem;
My original problem is that some pages I go onto allow me to hit the alt key and it shows the chrome menus and toolbars, etc, And yet, others, hitting alt does absolutely nothing;
Not only that, The pages where alt does nothing, On those pages, ctrl+d to add the current page as a favorite doesn’t work either; Its like some pages disable all the keyboard functionality?
I see this a lot from the google home page when first starting out on the browser;
I tried the f11 thinking that full screen was inadvertently turned on, And still no go, I don’t understand the rationale for the inconsistent behavior;
Any ideas?

You do this by pressing the function key F11. It is a toggle, so to tur it on press it once, and to turn it off, press it again.

To add to this explanation, Once you hit the Insert Space, then M, that selects the text and you can then hit Control C to copy it.

You can do this easily. First, mark the top of the block with ctrl-windows-k. Go to the end of the block and type insert-space, m.
hello, can you do a copy text between two placemarkers? within a virtual window. right now I do a ctrl+down arrow to select the text I want. some stuff is very very

Re: Making JAWS announce shortcut sequences
Mario,
Thanks for the location specifics. JAWS settings (any screen reader settings) are a real swamp, but they are so by necessity. A screen reader has to be uber customizable. -- Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1803, Build 17134 A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep. ~ Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back

Re: Navigating Favorites With Chrome

Google Chrome Version 69.0.3497.100 for me too. The alt F thing works for me, but even then it’s just not as fluid to get to the bookmarks in Chrome as with Firefox. It may be a simple thing, but one of those things for a heavy bookmarks user like myself where it matters. That said, and the Chrome bookmarks thing aside, does anyone know of a means to synchronize bookmarks between both browsers? Perhaps any third party add-ons to handle bookmarks?
