Re: Can you import easily favorits list from internet explorer into firefox?
Every modern browser includes a feature, at setup, to import bookmarks/favorites from another browser. Firefox certainly does.
I haven't used a manual export from the old browser and import to the new in a very long time except when someone has been using different browsers for different sets of sites. Even then, it was only on the browser(s) not chosen for automatic import of bookmarks where this is necessary. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 Tolerance is the positive and cordial effort to understand another's beliefs, practices, and habits without necessarily sharing or accepting them. ~ Joshua Liebman

Very quickly:

Install JAWS on both machines, preferably the same version and build. By default, the remote access client and server should be enabled but the new version will warn you and give you the option to turn it on if required. Load up on one machine with JAWS running. Open the remote desktop connection utility in Windows Accessories. You will need the computer name of the other machine that you wish to connect to here. Enter the computer name and open the options, you will need the username and password of another account on the machine that you aare trying to connect to, assuming that it is on the same network and domain etc. If it is not, you will need to look further in to IP addresses to connect and possibly, port forwarding on the router.

Re: Microsoft Excel And Filters
Hicks Steven (CORNWALL IT SERVICES) <steven.hicks@...>
I Tried turning on the filter and then alt+down arrow but it doesn’t seem to read anything when I tab around, nothing at all. Shift+ctrl+l seems to be the shortfcut for the filter on and off toggle as well if that is any use to you?

Sent: 27 February 2020 17:36 To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Re: Microsoft Excel And Filters
I use filters a lot.
Go to a cell in your header row, then hit the Filter button on the Data ribbon to turn on filters for that entire row of headers. When you want to filter a particular column, go do that column header and hit alt down arrow to expand the filter choices. I’m usually filtering on txt in the cells. The easiest way I find to do this is to Shift tab back three times till I hear Select all. You’ll be passing over a cancel button and an OK button. Then you arrow down the list of options, checking an unchecking the boxes you want to see or hide. Annoyingly I cannot find a way to page down or use first letter navigation to quickly move through a long list. If you know you want to see most of the rows, but hide just a few, leave the Select All option at the top check and arrow down to find the few options you want to filter out. If you want to hide a majority of rows and only see certain items, then uncheck the Select All option at the top and move down to place a check in the text items you want. Once you have that done, you just tab once to the OK button and hit enter. .JAWS does not read this button clearly; it sounds something more like type the text you want OK.
Happy to talk more if you have specific questions as you try it.

Re: Microsoft Excel And Filters
Steve Griffiths
I use Ctrl + Shift + L to toggle filters on and off - although JAWS doesn't report the change.
Once I've pressed Alt + DownArrow on a filter, I press E to jump to the edit box, DownArrow once to Select All, then End to go to the last item in the list, which is usually blanks?
I'm using Excel 2016 and JAWS 2020.
Thanks, Steve

Yes. You’ll want to leave the Select All option checked and arrow down to the last in the list below it, which is “(blanks)” and uncheck that. Wish there was a quicker way to get to it, but arrowing down is the only way I’ve found.

Thanks so much, that is fantastic! What I have is a colum going down, I just want to filter that colum so the blank cells are filtered out and the column only lists the cells where the entry is not blank e.g. contains a number. I Think that it is the alt+down arrow that I could have been missing.

vmware pro
Marvin Hunkin
Hi, doing a networking course from http://www.upskilled.edu.au. Now, need a education version of wmare workstation pro. Upskilled doesn’t have a subscription. And did e-mail education services on Monday, they said it would be 2 or 3 days, but been waiting 4 days. Wondering, and vmware doesn’t have a live chat option. So does any one know of a site, where I can get this for free, and want to be legal and have peace of mind. And also did contact vmware, trying to join their communities or register, they have an inaccessible cacture, and no audio option. And gave up, tried 5 or 6 times to type in the sample code, but no go. If this is not the right forum, then maybe point me to a user group, forum, or meetup group, where I can ask this question. Need it for my course, as hyper v manager, when I launch the vm, chrashes speech and there window is inaccessible. And also virtual box, which I tried, kept crhashing or powering off. Any help. Marvin. Ps: have tried googling and searching. And so, they said my message got sent and the aus site. Frustrated.

I looked in the menu I mentioned to you before to connect the session, and I was correct, I think you'll need the Tandem Direct option. I've pasted the quick user guide for Jaws Tandem below, and it includes the steps for the corporate environment connection, AKA, Tandem Direct: Glenn JAWS Tandem Quick Start Guide Use JAWS Tandem™ to access another computer running JAWS to provide hands on technical support, write scripts from a distance, or perform remote JAWS training. This feature consists of a controller system, used by support personnel, distributors, dealers, consultants, and trainers, and a target system, which is the customer’s JAWS application and computer. A JAWS Tandem connection serves as an online meeting between two JAWS users. A meeting can be conducted over the Internet, which is known as a Tandem Center session, or over a private network, known as a Tandem Direct session. The primary connection method is through Tandem Center, a gateway server responsible for creating meeting IDs, verifying proper use of JAWS Tandem, and providing a path between the two systems. After the session is established, the controller can manage and run the target system's desktop. Tandem Center sessions on both the controller and target computers are free of charge. For Tandem Direct sessions (typically used by corporations within a network) there is a charge for any computer that acts as a controller such as a help desk. There is no charge for target computers, such as workstations, in a Tandem Direct session. Remember to visit the Frequently Asked Questions for more information. Verify the following before you begin: a.. Internet access b.. Windows 7 or later c.. If you are having issues connecting to the Tandem Center, please make sure that Internet address tandem.freedomscientific.com and port 12000 be given access in the firewall. If you are in a corporate environment, please contact your IT team with this information. Starting a JAWS Tandem Center Session Note: The controller user provides the target user with a meeting ID. The ID is automatically generated for the controller during the connection process as described in the following procedure. To start a JAWS Tandem Center session on a controller computer, do the following: 1.. Press INSERT+J to open the JAWS application window. 2.. Press ALT+U to open the Utilities menu. 3.. Select JAWS Tandem from this menu, and then select Tandem Center from the next submenu. 4.. Select Get Access to a computer, which then opens the Get Access to a Computer dialog box. 5.. Press SPACEBAR to activate the Get Access button. The Meeting ID Created dialog box opens. An alphanumeric ID appears in the Meeting ID read-only edit field. It is not case sensitive. 6.. Provide the target user with the meeting ID, and then wait for the connection process to complete on the target system. After successful connection with the target, you have access to the target system’s desktop. Note that once an ID is generated, it is valid for 60 minutes until a connection is made. If you have not made a connection within this period, you must obtain a new ID from the Tandem Center. Note: Instead of having the target user walk through similar menus, tell the user to press INSERT+ALT+T. This will open the Allow Access to My Computer dialog box, and place focus in the Meeting ID edit box. You can then give the user the meeting ID that was created for you. On the target computer, do the following: 1.. Press INSERT+ALT+T. The Allow Access to My Computer dialog box opens. 2.. Type the meeting ID into the edit box. The ID is not case sensitive. 3.. Press TAB, and then SPACEBAR to activate the Allow Access button. After the controller and target successfully connect, the controller has access to the target system's desktop. Running a Session As a controller, you can run the target system using JAWS and braille just as if you are sitting in front of that computer. Use the same JAWS keystrokes and functionality that you are familiar with to control the target system. JAWS keystrokes work no matter which type of keyboard layout is used: Laptop or Desktop. JAWS Tandem Keystrokes Note: When using the Laptop keyboard layout, substitute CAPS LOCK for INSERT when typing a JAWS Tandem keystroke. a.. INSERT+ALT+T – ends session and can be issued from controller or target systems. Note: You can also use this keystroke to start JAWS Tandem on a target system. b.. INSERT+ALT+TAB – suspends or resumes a JAWS Tandem session in order to toggle between target system’s desktop and controller system’s desktop. Only available on controller system; cannot be used by target system. c.. INSERT+CTRL+SHIFT+V – toggles video on or off. Video is off by default. When video is on, it lets sighted users watch JAWS Tandem activity. Only available on controller system; cannot be used by target system. Note: If JAWS is running with ZoomText or as Fusion, you must always use INSERT+ALT+T to start or end a Tandem session even when using the Laptop keyboard layout. Remote Clipboard Use the CTRL+C keystroke to copy text with formatting from the target system, and then use CTRL+V to paste text into a file on the controller system. This is ideal for support personnel who want to copy specific text from a log file on the target system. Note: Remote Clipboard will not transfer files. Disconnecting a Session Press INSERT+ALT+T to terminate a session at any time from either the controller system or the target system. Each system regains control of its own desktop. Tandem Direct Session A Tandem Direct session is used for enterprise networks in a business when two JAWS users are connected to the same network. All functionality and keystrokes previously mentioned for a Tandem Center session are applicable for a Tandem Direct session. Starting a Tandem Direct session is slightly different than a Tandem Center session as outlined in the following list. a.. Determine which computer will be the controller and which will be the target. b.. The first time you run a Tandem Direct session on a target system, you must unblock the program JTTarget so that it can communicate through Windows Firewall. c.. The target system always initiates the session, and it must provide its meeting ID and its host name to the controller. d.. By default, the target system listens on port 3000. If you change the port setting, remember to configure the controller system for the same port. e.. The controller can turn on video to view JAWS Tandem activity. Starting a JAWS Tandem Direct Session A JAWS Tandem Direct session is always launched from the target computer. To start, do the following: 1.. Press INSERT+J and then ALT+U to open the Utilities menu in the JAWS application window. 2.. Press T to open the JAWS Tandem submenu, and then R to open the Tandem Direct submenu. 3.. Press A to choose Allow Access to my Computer. A dialog box opens with focus in the Meeting ID edit box. 4.. Type a value into the Meeting ID edit box. The Meeting ID can be letters, numbers, or a combination of both. The maximum ID length is 64-characters, and it is not case sensitive. You will provide this ID to the controller user. 5.. Press TAB to move to the Host Name or IP Address read-only edit box. Provide the controller user with the host name, for example, ABC-DEF001. 6.. Press TAB to move to the Allow Access button, and press SPACEBAR to activate the button. Note: As a target system, a Windows Security Alert dialog box may appear after pressing the Allow Access button. If this happens, choose the Unblock button and press SPACEBAR. (If a User Account Control dialog box opens, choose the Continue button and press SPACEBAR.) This action adds the JTTarget program to an exceptions list in Windows Firewall on the target system. 7.. Wait for the controller user to enter the target information. On a successful Tandem Direct connection, JAWS announces Tandem connection open. The controller system now has access to and can operate the target system. To start a JAWS Tandem Direct session on the controller computer, do the following: 1.. Press INSERT+J to open the JAWS application window, and press ALT+U to open the Utilities menu. 2.. Press T to open the JAWS Tandem submenu, and then R to open the Tandem Direct submenu. 3.. Press G to select Get Access to a Computer. A dialog box opens, and focus is in the Host Name or IP Address edit box. 4.. Type the host name, provided to you by the target user, into the edit box. 5.. Press TAB to move to the Meeting ID edit box, and type the ID provided by the target user. 6.. Press TAB to move to the Enable Video check box. If you are a sighted user and want to watch the JAWS Tandem activity on the target system, select the check box. If you do not need video, clear the check box. Note: By default, the Enable Video check box is cleared; however, if you selected the check box in a previous session, JAWS Tandem remembers this setting and uses it for the next session. Also, video can be toggled on or off at any time during a session using INSERT+CTRL+SHIFT+V. 7.. Press TAB to move to the Get Access button and press SPACEBAR to activate the button. After successfully connecting with the target, you now have control of the target system’s desktop. If the connection fails, verify that Windows Firewall is not blocking JTTarget on the target system. Also verify that host name, meeting ID, and port settings match. Configuring Windows Firewall for Tandem Direct Sessions Note: The following procedures are only necessary if JTTarget is later blocked on the target system. The target system uses a program named JTTarget. It must be added to an exceptions list on the target system so that the program can communicate through Windows Firewall. (It is not necessary to do this on the controller system.) Windows lets you unblock this program when you first create a Tandem Direct session. Later, if you block the program by deleting JTTarget from the Windows Firewall exceptions list or by clearing the JTTarget check box in the exceptions list, an error message or a Windows Security Alert will appear the next time the target and controller try to connect. Adding JTTarget to the Exceptions List If you previously deleted the JTTarget program from the exceptions list in Windows Firewall, use the following steps to add the program: 1.. Open the Windows Control Panel and then select and open Windows Firewall. 2.. For Windows 10 or Windows 8.1, navigate to and select the Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall link, or for Windows 7, navigate to and select the Allow a program through Windows Firewall link. If a User Account Control dialog box opens, choose the Continue button and press SPACEBAR to activate the button. 3.. Select Change Settings and then select the Allow Another App button. 4.. Choose the Browse button in the Add a Program dialog box, and then type JTTarget.exe in the File name combo of the Browse dialog box. 5.. Press ENTER. The program is added to the Programs list in the Add a Program dialog box. 6.. Choose OK. JTTarget is added to and selected in the Allowed Programs list. 7.. Press TAB to move to the OK button and press SPACEBAR to save the change and close Windows Firewall. The controller system can now connect to the target system. Windows Firewall Exception for Tandem Direct If you previously cleared the JTTarget check box in the exceptions list, do the following to select the check box: 1.. Open the Windows Control Panel and then select and open Windows Firewall. 2.. For Windows 10 or Windows 8.1, navigate to and select the Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall link, or for Windows 7, navigate to and select the Allow a program through Windows Firewall link. If a User Account Control dialog box opens, choose the Continue button and press SPACEBAR to activate the button. 3.. Select Change Settings and then select the Allow Another App button. 4.. In the Allowed Programs list, use the ARROW keys to move to JTTarget. 5.. Press SPACEBAR to select the check box. 6.. Press TAB to move to the OK button and press SPACEBAR to save the change and close Windows Firewall. The controller system can now connect to the target system. Connection Audit Logging JAWS Tandem now maintains a log of session activity using the Windows Event Log service. These events are used to record the beginning and end of a session, the suspension and continuation of a session, and errors triggered before a session starts. The advantage of having such a log is that consultants and trainers now have a record of JAWS Tandem activity which is useful for tracking time for billing purposes and so on. The event log can be set up so that only administrators can delete events. Also, users assigned any privilege level can write events to the event log. Note: JAWS Tandem event logging does not record user activity. It only logs session errors and the start, suspension, restart, and end of a session. a.. To learn more about events, see JAWS Tandem Events. b.. To learn more about the event properties, see JAWS Tandem Event Properties. c.. To launch the Event Viewer, see Opening the Event Viewer. JAWS Tandem Events JAWS Tandem events and actions trigger an entry in the event log. The following events are available. For event details, see Event Properties. a.. Event ID 1 – Tandem session error: An error event describing when a session cannot be established. This can be caused by the following: a.. Meeting ID used by the target does not match the meeting ID used by the controller. b.. Target and controller are unable to find a common voice synthesizer. c.. Meeting ID expired. d.. Network error occurred; can be caused by the target computer not communicating with the Tandem Center. b.. Event ID 2 – Tandem session started: An information event showing when a session is established between a controller and target computer. It appears in both the controller and target event logs. c.. Event ID 3 – Tandem session concluded: An information event showing when a session ended. This can be caused by the target or controller computer closing the session, or by a network error closing the session. It appears in both the controller and target event logs. d.. Event ID 4 – Tandem session suspended: An information event showing when the controller suspended a session. This is done by toggling between the target system desktop and the controller system desktop using INSERT+ALT+TAB. It appears in the target event log. e.. Event ID 5 – Tandem session resumed: An information event showing when the controller resumed the session. This is done by toggling between the controller system desktop and the target system desktop using INSERT+ALT+TAB. It appears in the target event log.

There is a keyboard shortcut to toggle back and forth with Jaws Tandem as well, but I don't recall what it is.

Ok, thanks again Glen. I’ll take the laptop tomorrow and look at that setting. Are commands to use the remote copy of jaws the normal commands? On Feb 27, 2020, at 7:05 PM, Glenn / Lenny <glennervin@cableone.net>Hi Shannon, I think it is the Tandem Direct in utilities. The menu says Tandem Direct submenu And down arrow there. I have done tandem regular to help folks quite a few times before, but I have not tried Tandem direct. I noticed that get access to a computer is not available on mine for some reason. But at any rate, I think you will need to initiate the connection from work first. HTH.

Hello Glenn, and thanks for the reminder. Both copies are the same year. Version number I mean. But I would want to copy at my work profile settings. I didn’t think of that. That part I think I know how to do. Import new settings for my back up. How do I use remote control? Do you know? On Feb 27, 2020, at 6:49 PM, Glenn / Lenny <glennervin@cableone.net>Hi, If you have exported your settings to a jaws settings file, you can eMail the file to your work, or bring it on a thumb drive and import it into the other Jaws. Unless the Jaws at work is older than the Jaws you are currently using.

Re: Need step by instructions for setting up and useing remote jaws for work.

Is the question regarding tandem or the remote desktop option.

These are two different functions. The first one is included with bass jaws, the second one requires purchasing an additional license to support remote desktop access. Thanks,abraham
