Re: Jaws In Demo Mode After Shutdown And Re-boot
Dave...
Happens to me only once or twice a year, and have no idea
why. I would posit that some driver didn't load properly during startup, thereby
fooling JAWS into thinking that it was not operating as authorized. I suspect
that if you simply log off and log on again, it would cure without having to do
a complete reboot.

Subject: Jaws In Demo Mode After Shutdown And Re-boot Hello, everyone
This morning, I experienced a very strange problem with Jaws when booting up my current windows 7 computer.
Even though my SMA is current, and I’ve been using the latest build of Jaws 2018 for a number of months now, Jaws came up in demo mode.
I exited out of Jaws, and then re-loaded the program, and I was back in business, but I’m now wondering why this is occurring.
I seem to recall others having a similar issue.
Thanks for any wisdom anyone can provide.

Some time ago, I frequently ahd the JAWS demo issue. I inserted my
JAWS authorization number as requested and then the issue went away.

As Richard said, Jaws is reading the path to the graphics. Sloppy coding from someone who may be clueless about accessibility.

CN is definitely out since direct messaging no longer works therein.

TW Blue is a good alternative, although there are some quirks with it. First, If you send a direct message and manually enter the recipient's Twitter name, then tab to the text field, TW Blue thinks you're replying to whatever message happens to be in focus in its internal list, but the message does in fact go to its intended recipient. Second, If you have never activated a Twitter account using TW Blue, you must use what's called a snapshot build, which you can get from the TW Blue Website, http://www.twblue.es. Snapshot builds have some extra code in them that uses Twitter's old way of authorizing a new application. TW Blue does have a keymap for Chicken Nugget. It isn't perfect, but once one gets used to it, it does do what it's supposed to.

Re: Rufis
Lifted from the middle of a set of instructions for doing a completely clean install of Windows 10, using Rufus to create the bootable USB drive using the Win10 ISO file. The steps are the same regardless of the ISO file being used, though the answer to the MBR versus GPT part is not as important if you're not installing the operating system but just booting from a drive that contains a tool or tools.
------------------------------------------ Use Rufus (or a similar utility of your choosing) to burn the ISO to a flash drive to create bootable media. The following lettered steps presume you’re using Rufus. Attach your flash drive and run Rufus. In the first dropdown box: a) If you know your machine is newer hardware that uses UEFI as opposed to BIOS, select GPT partition scheme for UEFI. If the machine originally came with Windows 8 or Windows 10 this is definitely the choice to make. b) If you know your machine is older and uses BIOS, or are uncertain as to whether you have BIOS or UEFI, select MBR partition scheme for UEFI or BIOS. Virtually all machines that came with Windows 7 (and earlier Windows) were produced with BIOS and use MBR partitioning. Leave the other checkboxes checked or unchecked with their defaults. 4. Find the Create a bootable disc using checkbox and make sure that the option ISO image is selected from the dropdown next to it. Just beyond that dropdown is the Click to select an image . . . button. Activate it and you will be presented with the standard Windows browse dialog that lets you locate and select the Windows 10 ISO file from wherever you saved it. 5. Activate the Start button. The ISO image will now be burned to the flash drive as bootable. --Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1809, Build 17763 If you remove all the homosexuals and homosexual influences from what is generally regarded as American culture, you are pretty much left with Let's Make a Deal. ~ Fran Lebowitz

Are you sure there is something on the clipboard? To make sure highlight a

piece of text and you will hear 'selected'. Then press control C and you will hear 'copied to clipboard'. Then to make sure you have the selected text I would just go to a new document and press control shift V. You will then hear 'pasted from clipboard'. What you hear doesn't have the '. Even if there is nothing on the clipboard and you press control shift V it will still say 'pasted from clipboard'.
