Hi again Tom,

 

Below is a direct Dropbox  download link to the latest installer.  I just downloaded this file and made sure it doesn't have any extra crap attached to the installer.

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/hw57xyq8687zaqm/readerdc_en_xa_crd_install.zip?dl=1

 

 

Please let me know when you get it downloaded so I can remove it from my account.

Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Subject: downloading Adobe Reader

Hi,


Using: Jaws 2021 and W10 20H2 64 bit.


I have been attempting to download and install Adobe Reader from the
site but each time it attempts to also download the McAfee anti virus
program which is not wanted.



Any ideas how Adobe Reader can be had without the anti virus program?



Thanks


Tom

Hi Everyone,

 

I downloaded JAWS 2021 from the link on the website several days ago. It’s on my desktop. And I thought it was working fine. Suddenly, I just happened to see that I’m running 2020 and not 2021. And when I click on 2021, it simply throws me back into 2020. Where’d I go wrong? How to fix?

 

Help!

You could use a text editor such as notepad++, then run Pandoc (see its home page <https://www.pandoc.org/>) to convert Markdown files to HTML, PDF, DOCX, and so on. A Windows installer can be downloaded from the above Web site.

Hi folks,

I'm just learning to write Markdown. I wish I had learned this ages ago. It's amazing, and can even be written on my Orbit 20 Plus braille display, as long as I remember to choose Computer braille.

Does anyone know of a good, preferably free or cheap, Markdown editor that works well with Jaws? Basically, I'd love something that can import a .md file and save it either as .docx, .rtf or even as .html. I love the Writage plug in for Word that will import .md files directly into Word, but it only offers a free trial now.

Thanks,
~Ann

Greetings All-

OK thanks to many on this list I got my H.P. computer up and connected to the net and installed JAWS and NVDA...and things went well.

Looks like 'This PC' is what was 'my computer' on my Win 7 desktop.  I don't see or understand how to move a shortcut for 'This PC' to the desktop.

Honestly why Microsoft has to change names, etc. is beyond me.  I live by these seven words..."If it ain't broke, don't fix it."  So if you can enlighten me on how to do this, I'd appreciate it...that would be great.  Thanks...

Hi, You can copy drombox links from anywhere in your dropbox folder.

To copy a link to your file,

Find the file you want to copy.

Press your applications key and use your arrow keys until jaws says “Copy Dropbox link.

Press enter. Jaws will let you know that the link of the file is copied to your clipboard.

Next, you can paste the link in email message.

Hope this helps.

I have dropbox  foldername public  where I have some zip folder withmicrosoft outlook 2007 word document  where I have it highlight then I press the application key to arrow down it’s say share  arrow down again it sayextracts all  and etc  but I don’t hear it’s say share public links where I can press enter on it to get the public links to press ctrl+ c to copy clipboard  so I can send the public links to a friend email !! Does Dropbox  still use public links or not ? If not then How can I the zip folder oof the file to my friend to extracts the file on her laptop ?

If I’m not mistaken Is it copying public links dropbox  or copying dropbox links? Does anyone know how I can share the zip folder in dropbox to get the links with dropbox to send a friend ?
