Hello Richard,

Unfortunately, I have not encountered this issue, as to me the command creates consecutive footnotes, using office 365. I am always ready to help, if I can, Take care, Takis

Have you tried the Jaws passthrough key first? Incase Jaws is trying to grab those keys before the program? It is Insert+3 on the number row.

Good morning everyone,
Just wanted all of you too know, that I was able too start playing the ACB New York state convention Stream with VLC media player. Now, I have some questions regarding there options. The shortcut options say that if you want too raise the volume, you should press the alt I key. If you want too lower it says that you should hit the alt key E. and too mute the playing of the particular stream that you are listening too, hit the alt key M key. I do have audio ducting enable using Jaws 2021 latest version, and am running windows 10. Could this be causing any of those combinations keys that I listed above, be the cause of the problem that I’m having? Or should I call the Microsoft disability answer desk, too uninstall my current version of VLC media player, and install it again? The thing is, I can’t even get any new updates that might be available.
Any help or advice about this ongoing issue would be very much appreciated.
Al However when I’m trying too hit any of these combinations keys, I can’t raise the volume, or hit the key combination M key too mute a media stream, none of them seem too work

Are you using alt+f4 and picking shut down? If the answer to the two questions is yes, then you probably need to hold the power button after a minute or two of waiting for it to shut down so you are shutting down manually. There of course may be power option settings that need fixing. Is the computer under warranty, so you could call HP?

Re: OT, More On finding an accessible flip phone.
Angel
People have a rite to choose. There are many reasons substantiating a persons choice. I think this rite ought not to be abridged. There is a long way between choice and necessity. This is why it is fortunate there is now, and I hope in future, there will always be a fulfillment of the need for button driven phones.

Well I think regarding physical limitations only, 99.9% of people can use a touch screen, I could use one with my nose, my tongue, or even my toe if I had to. So when folks say they cannot, it is not for physical reasons IMO. But for me, I like the iPhone for apps, not for a phone. I like the simplicity of a flip phone. But if folks feel they cannot learn to use a touch screen, or just like me, prefer a flip phone, I get that. But I find it hard to accept that some folks cannot use a touch screen, unless they have other disabilities other than physical. But we are all different, and I look forward to always having options.

Yes, word has a shortcut and it's all very useful, perhaps not as handy as that by the old wordperfect. When you type and want to insert a footnote, just press control-alt-f and it will open with the corresponding number. Once you have typed it, just arrow up if it is the first one and you will get yourself back to main text. My suggestion which works is to use alt-home, then alt-end which gets you back to where the note was inserted.
