I’m not Brian, but as far as checking which format you are using, hit alt+f then t for options.  \

Arrow down  once to mail, and tab twice and it should say, compose in this format.  If it says html, then you are using html for sending.

If it doesn’t, arrow up or down until you get to html and then hit enter or tab to OK and hit enter.

 

HTH,

Richard

 

 

 

 

Hi Brian,

 

I do not recall ever making a choice for plain text.  Where can I confirm this in Outlook?

 

I can forward you a message off list if you provide me the email address for this.  Smile.  I did not keep the ones we recently had this experience with, but I will forward a similar one which I believe will show the situation.

 

Thanks.

 

Barbara

Barbara,

         Are you, by any chance, having Outlook force your incoming e-mail messages to plain text?  Since a very great many e-mail messages are in HTML format when they get forced to plain text a lot of what was contained in them, particularly graphics, gets mangled.  You also lose information that's involved with those graphics.

         I always strongly discourage my clients from forcing plain text because of the potential for lost content that's hard to describe, but is there if you leave the message "unmolested" from its format of composition.

         If you're not forcing plain text if an example of one of these messages can be forwarded to me I might be able to figure out what's going on just by examining what comes in.

That's right, it's not restricted to Chrome. All Web browsers have spell-checkers. That's one of the first things I do when I try a new one is to turn those annoying things off. Spell-checker, grammar-checker, they all go off. I was properly taught to spell and construct sentences in school. I neither need nor desire software to correct me. Actually, I'd much prefer to have a person do it than a piece of code, like my good pal Dave Durber, ha ha, who's been doing it for years, whether I need it or not! LOLLOL! You know I'm just having you on, Dave, or at least I *hope* you do.

 

Hello Steve:

 

This problem is not restricted to Chrome. I have had this happen to me while using FireFox and Internet Explorer several times but, I must admit, not for two or three years.

It's not JAWS saying misspelled, it's Chrome. Turn off automatic spell-checking. I don't know where that's done because I'm not a Chrome user, but it's in settings or options somewhere.

Hi List,

While posting on Facebook yesterday, I got annoyed by JAWS saying ‘misspelled’ for every single word, so that I could not check my text before posting it. Of course, the reason was that my text was in Albanian, not in English, but I wonder if I can set JAWS not to say ‘misspelled’?

I am using latest JAWS, in this case with Google Chrome.

Best wishes,

Hello, I want to back up my outlook.pst file. I couldn’t find it going through control panel and then mail. I can find the main folder. Yet there is no outlook.pst file. Is there some other way I should use to locate the file and copy it?

Hi William,

 

Try tab or shift+tab or possibly F6/Shift+F6.

Just out of curiocity, why did you disable automatic Firefox updates? At this point updates in my  opinion will only bring improvements and it would seem that we are past that time when upgrading Firefox was a bad idea.

 

 

Hello all

 

I have 2 questions :

 

1: I have the last version of jaws 2018 and firefox 60 installed en I have chosen not to install the updates automatically.\

I receive a notification when I open firefox that there is a update but with alt+n , I can’t install the update.

Any idea’s?

 

And question 2: some websites gives popups that jaws is speaking.

I don’t know how to activate the popup to open the message?

 

Thx in advance,

 

Kind regards

William

Yes, I am completely on Windows 10. My Outlook data files have an .ost extension.

 

 

Is this windows 10?

 

 

For me the outlook data file is in AppData/local/Microsoft/Outlook.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

 

 

Sieghard,

 

Great info, never knew they changed the file extension from .pst to.ost.

Also, for those using POP3 accounts the default location is under ones documents folder in a folder called outlook.

 

Al

 

 

Is this Outlook 2016? If I go to File > Account Settings and then to the data file tab all my accounts are listed including the full path to the data file.

In Outlook 2016, however, they have an “OST” extension.

Also, and this is the beauty if you use IMAP or set up an Outlook.com account with exchange active sync, there really is no need to back up these files. If I get a new computer or for some reason want to set up my accounts from scratch I just delete the accounts and then re-create them and all my mail, contacts and so on will sync back down from the servers and my local copy of the data file is created new.

 

Regards,

Yes. Do windows-r and type c colon backslash. (I used the words rather than the punctuation marks there.

Where did you find the outlook.dst file? I could only find the email address.pst which is only 265 kb. I know there is more than 265 kb in my outlook.

 

 

I use exchange for my business and exchange active sync, i.e. Outlook.com for my personal email. My outlook files are my email address with a .OST extension.

 

 

 

Is the folder actually called outlook files?
