Hi,

From the list of files, tab once to Name and press space or enter.

All the best

Steve

Good evening everyone,

Suddenly, the items in file explorer are in reverse order—Beginning with Z and ending with A. I don’t like this because I’m not used to it. How can I reverse it back? I don’t know how it ended up this way.

Thank you for any help.

Shirley

Yes. My computer was online. I have Jaws 2020 2021 and 2022. I use the offline file, and the online smaller file. When I write and click and do OCR with jaws it simply says component is not installed. I’ve even turned off all the security through windows firewall etc. Still, component not installed. I also tried repair. On all three. No difference

Greetings:

The install requires you to be online. I assume you were?

With JAWS 2022, the OCR component was installed when I invoked an OCR
function. But, of course, I understand you to be using JAWS 2021. Can you
run a repair while ensuring your computer is online?

Regards,

Curtis Chong

Subject: Jaws 2021 and OCR component not install

I recently built a new computer. I have windows 10 professional. I installed
open book 9, the latest version. I then installed Jaws 2021 from the
off-line 1.3 GB installation file. But, the OCR component is not installed.
that is what I keep getting told whenever I try to OCR a PDF. I called
Support and all they told me was make sure windows is up-to-date. That is
pretty infuriating. I have sent try to remove jars, completely along with
all shared components and then reinstalled it. No different. I have
installed all my previous versions of jaws, 2018, 2019, 2020 while also
having 2021 on the computer, still, OCR component not installed. Any help
much appreciated

I'm not sure about that Bill. I made a test HTML page with just a link to a second page and it's seems just as chatty.

Isn’t there still a company that makes the Mountbatten braille writer? i’ve seen some before, and it’s my understanding they do the same thing and are built primarily the same too.

Shalom,

You really have only one choice and that is the Perkins Braille Writer. I don’t think you are looking for the electric one.

 

You can find brand new ones at Perkins Store. Price is around $900.00

 

Here is the web URL to the Perkins Store for Braille Writers:

https://brailler.perkins.org/pages/perkins-brailler

 

You can find people selling secondhand Perkins Braillers ranging in price from around $250.00 and I have seen some going for as high as $400.00. Ads are usually found on blindads a listserv found on groups.io, and you can find ads in the Braille Forum from the American Council of the Blind and the Braille Monitor from the National Federation of the Blind.

Dear Listers:

Are any of you familiar with the Blue Mountain e-card service?  It has e-cards for birthdays, anniversaries, etc.  It also has an addressbook where you can store all your contacts.  My problem is deleting a contact from the addressbook.  The directions say that if you want to delete someone, check the contact and then hit the Delete button at the top of the page.  I have multiple addresses for one contact and I am trying to delete one of them.  When I check the box next to the address I want to delete there appears a notice to delete selected.  I hit the Enter key and a dialog pops up.  At the very bottom of the page there is an OK button.  I hit the Enter key on it but the address I want to delete will not go away.  If any of you out there have used Blue Mountain, can you give me some help and advice.

Subject: Loading a webpage, why is JAWS chatty?

With some webpages, when I click a link and the new page is loaded, JAWS is quite chatty. In some cases, some of the HTML context from the source page is spoken.  I've tried lowering web verbosity and regular verbosity levels, but it doesn't do anything. Does anyone know why?

For example, on this culture, history, and sport page from the government of Canada, I press enter on the History and heritage link, the title of the current window is spoken, then the heading and link, then the destination page twice. Here's the speech history

tab to and spacebar on a name split button

Just a quick note should someone find themselves in the situation.  Each column in file explorer if you're using list or details view is a split button, and you can sort by any single column in either ascending or descending order.  It's the main part of the split button, not the split part, that toggles sort order back and forth

I've seen occasions where someone accidentally activated one of the other columns, say Date modified, and had no idea why their sort order in the name column looked like nothing they've ever encountered before.

If something like that does occur, just gain focus on the left half of the split button for the column on which you want your files sorted and activate it.  You may have to do that twice if the initial sort order is reversed from what you actually wanted.
