Re: Inappropriate Forms Mode?
Jim Weiss <jimweiss72@...>
You’re talking about Windows 7, correct? It is no longer supported, the questioning why the current release of the software doesn’t work with it? Really?

Inappropriate Forms Mode?
Dennis Brown
I let the update feature update my 2021 to the latest build, and now have a problem that isn’t in previous builds. When I go to the Start menu search field, then type in Settings, it loads the Windows Settings app. Navigating in that app, it acts as if forms mode automatically gets activated. I don’t have auto forms mode set in my JAWS settings, but when I try to move left and right through the options, it gives me the forms mode sound, then moves character by character through the name of the option, not option by option. Likewise, if I arrow down, I get the forms mode off sound If I select an option with Enter, I get forms mode on sound, and can’t do squat with the selected option. I dropped back to 2020, and no problem. If I arrow through the Systems Tray, then select my network icon, it goes into forms mode, and I can’t do anything with that selection. Any ideas? Dennis

Page name repeats when loading a page
Mark
When a webpage loads, I notice JAWS will repeat it's title, sometimes up to 3 times. I tried searching for an answer to why,, but without luck. Anyone notice this or can explain why?

Re: Eclipse IDE with JAWS 2020

Hi Jason, I tried pressing CTRL+F6 but the only thing that happened is that JAWS did jump to the dialog box with the "Editors" button. Unfortunately, when I press TAB here now, I always end up back in the editor, even with Shift+TAB. Manuel

I think it's Ctrl-F6 to move between components, not F6. Check the list of keyboard shortcuts, which should be available via your preferred Web search engine, for more details.

Eclipse IDE with JAWS 2020
Manuel Osswald
Hello,
For my studies I need the program Eclipse, because we program with Java. I have already installed and opened the program. However, I have the following problem: When I created a new project and then create a class in it, I can no longer get out of the code text field. I do get to the menu bar with the Alt key and can also reliably find the elements there, but so far it is not possible for me to navigate out of the text field with F6, for example, and get to the other controls of Eclipse. In addition, many things are not displayed on the braille display, including, for example, the line in the code that I am on as well as errors in the code. Does anyone here perhaps use Eclipse and can give me more detailed information on how best to use it as a JAWS user?
Best,
Manuel

I just installed 2021, and went through the settings, making changes. Now, when it sees something like 12th, it reads it as 1 2 t h. It reads 2nd not as second, but 2 n d. Any idea which setting I need to change?

Re: Number Processing

Try the following:
Note: If you want to make these settings in a particular application / program, then open the application / program & open the Settings Center while in the application / program & skip step #2. If you want these settings for all applications follow all the steps below. 1. Open the Settings Center with, Insert / Jaws key + 6, on the number row above the main keyboard. 2. Press, Control, Shift, + D, to open Setting Center default all applications. 3. Arrow down to, Text Processing, & right arrow to open. 4. Arrow down 1 time to, Number & Date Processing, & right arrow to open. Note: If you want the date to read correctly when it's in a number format, arrow down 1 time to, Numeric Date Processing, press the spacebar to toggle through your options, & stop when Jaws reports, Some Translation. 5. Arrow down 1 time to, Number Processing, press the spacebar to toggle through the options. Stop when Jaws reports, Controlled By Synthesizer. 6. Arrow down to, Speak Single Digits, right arrow to open, arrow down to, If Number Contains, press the spacebar to toggle through the options, & stop when Jaws reports, Controlled By The Synthesizer. 7. Arrow down to, If number contains dashes, this box needs to be checked. 8. If you want dollar & cents amounts reported correctly, arrow down to, Speak Dollars, & make sure this box is checked. 9. Tab to, Apply, press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, press enter to save your changes & close the Settings Center. Stay safe & take care. Mike. Just once, I want a username and password prompt to say: "Close Enough!"

Re: Google and auto fill
Steve Nutt
No, you don’t want to get out of the edit field, but pressing escape will make the edit field blank, so long as you don’t up or down arrow again, just type.

Re: Google and auto fill
Steve Nutt
Hi,
Couple of things.
When the autofill text comes up, just type or paste new text into the edit field, ignoring the auto filled text, and it will go away.
Also, press escape and the text won’t be auto completed.
I love autofill personally, but I can see it would be annoying for some.
All the best

thanks, good information. sometimes Autofill seems helpful, but when tapping around on a website it frequently occurs that I am stuck in the autofill dialog and have no shortcut key to get out. Any advice which keys are helpful? Klaus
My problem is how to get out of the dialog! What is the the applicable shortkey? Thanks On 10/21/2021 6:54 AM, Vaughn Brown wrote:

Re: Where can i get itunes?
Juan Hernandez
I get stuff like that from ninite.com, they allow you to get a easy accessible installer file, and you can then get itunes. You can get many other tools there as well. Just find itunes in the list, check the box, and then hit the get installer button at the bottom of the page.

Hello David,

I recently purchased a Windows 10 Pro PC. I tried to locate iTunes in the Microsoft store but found it rather confusing. So, I simply downloaded the latest version of iTunes for Windows directly from Apple at: https://www.apple.com/itunes/ If you want, you can download older versions of iTunes from the Apple site, also. Good Luck, Mark

You can get iTunes from 2places. First the microsoft store, just search for iTunes and you should find it.

Secondly you can also get iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/ As for my personal preference, I love to get it from the Microsoft store because I can download a bunch of needed apps in 1 place while setting up my PC.

Re: Where can i get itunes?

The quickest and easiest way is to type “iTunes” into google or whatever search engine you prefer
Would be your best option
And a hell of a lot quicker than typing out an email!

Part of it was the ARA agent was not clear enough in their query. “What’s your ID code” I thought what is he talking about? Then someone who uses ARA said it is your email subscription you signed up with. I called ARA again and he said, “You need the quick support app from the app store for teams.” I have a small business account which allots me 30 minutes or more free. The agent said if it is business related it is not restricted to just 30 minutes. Good thing as it took us 45 minutes to solve my problem.

Sounds like you’re learning the hard way that Teams is different from other meeting clients the way I have. Here’s the subscription info to the Teams Access group.

Since it has been mentioned and I needed to get the quick support for teams yesterday to use ARA, does anyone know the subscription address for teams and Ara. I was trying to unsubscribe from an paid advertiser and there was no way of unsubscribing using VO Thus I had to call Ara, they in turn asked for my ID. To make long story short, I thought I know there is a group for ARA paid users and wondered if there was such a group for teams as well. To be honest I never used teams or had to till yesterday, I’ve always used zoom or face time. Now I want the subscription to both groups if at all possible.
