Re: Firefox Lagging and Freezing
Hi, JM. I was just on the phone with VFO, and we even reproduced the issue on my machine with JAWS unloaded, using Narrator. So, either it is a Firefox/Windows problem, or it is a Firefox problem

Re: Firefox Lagging and Freezing
Just curious. When this happens with Firefox and JAWS “comes back”, can you then activate links? If you alt-tab away from Firefox and then return to it, does the virtual cursor/buffer come on, or

Re: open book
There are Open Book features that cannot be incorporated into JFW such as the ability to import and read various document formats. Personally, I think it is pretty disgraceful it has not been updated

Re: Firefox Lagging and Freezing
Me too, but I have 6 ram on laptop; wonder if that makes a difference. IE keeps freezing as does Firefox and Jaws is really acting crazy with Bookshare as well. Jaws 2018 that is. Jaws 17 works fine

Re: JAWS keeps speaking the progress of streams
The layered keystroke you describe I don't think was available yet in Jaws 14, but I am not entirely certain since I used Jaws 14 a very long time ago, even have to think, in the fall of 2017 Jaws

Hi, Alyssa. Maybe one of your computers has received some Windows 10 updates, and the other hasn’t received them yet.

Firefox Lagging and Freezing
I’m wondering if anybody else is having this problem.
I’m running Firefox version 62, latest version of JFW, and Windows 10.
I’ll be arrowing down through a web page, and all of a sudden JAWS

Re: Firefox extended support release
you can use Chrome on Windows 7 but JAWS 13 is not likely to work with
Chrome. JAWS 2018 is compatible with Chrome. Alternatively, you can try
NVDA and Chrome if you're not able to upgrade to JAWS

It is clear that they expect to improve the product but we don’t know if they will release something in the next years or simply get red of OB and implement the advanced Reading features in

Re: open book
I asked Eric at his presentation to the NFB convention. His answer was that VFO will eventually release a new version but for now they are working hard on Jaws and some other things..

I joined the Openbook beta team in about 2004 or so, and there has not been any traffic on that group since Openbook 9.
I believe that was either late 2013 or early 2014.
