Re: Google Drive!

Brian Vogel
 

Jonas,

           Thanks, but I don't need it myself as I never upgraded and currently have Google Drive Sync installed and continuing to run on my machine.

           I also tend to avoid getting installers anywhere except "from the source" or from someone I definitely trust who has an archived copy of their own.

           What's running on my machine is Google Drive Sync Version 2.34.6425.2548, so what is on the site you gave the link to is very old indeed (and the downloads likely full of bundled bloatware and/or PUPs).

Try some of the files on,

I am not shure what version to get!

Just based on the file size of a bit over 1000 KB I am doubting that this is the offline installer.  

If someone happens to have the offline installer that would be ideal.

Jaws Script settings for Outlook2013 being used for Outlook 2016

Shannon
 

Hi all,

I just noticed something on my lap top running Jaws 18, win 10 and using Office 2016

I used the insert                ctrl V to get the version of my Outlook and the jaws history to get this

Microsoft Outlook Subscription Version 16.0.8326.2096

                               

When I press the

JAWSKey+W
This script speaks shortcut keys appropriate to Outlook 2013.
Says Windows shortcut keys, keyboard Help, and other information that is important when using Outlook 2013 without a mouse

 

I think this odd and wonder if something is not loaded correctly? Why would it be referring to 2013 when this is 2016?

Is there a script I need to load or change something?

Thanks

Shannon

Mario:

No, I am not getting the save password alert any longer, which is a good thing.

As for the continuing U A C issue, I have learned to tolerate it, even though it is a bit of a nuisance.

I guess I could try un-installing and re-installing Firefox to see if the notification goes away, but I am not sufficiently bothered by the problem, at least at this time.

If anyone has other suggestions for me to try, I'd be happy to consider them.

Tom, are you still getting the alert if you want to save the password?
I think this is what Bill was referring to in his suggestion:

quote
ALT plus R, followed by R tells Firefox to remember the password.

ALT plus N followed by N says: No, don't remember the password.
end quote

as for the UAC dialog popping up when starting Firefox, I'm not really sure as I haven't experienced this problem before.
I can suggest uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, and even downloading it from the website first, but this time running the installer as the admin to see if that keeps the UAC at bay. but if it still pops up, maybe there's another thing to try, if you want to keep trying, or someone else monitoring this problem has a solution?

Hi Randy,

Kodi is a program that runs on Windows, Android, Lenix, Raspberry Pi, and iOS.

It is compatible with all of the above-mentioned platforms, but the Kodi screen reader is only compatible with Kodi 16.1 on Windows. The screen reader will not work with Kodi 17.3 or 17.4 currently. It's operated by the keyboard. Jaws will not read its contents, hence the reason for Kodi having its own reader.

Hello Carol,

Kodi, is a platform where one can watch various TV shows, movies and depending on what Bill you have, live TV stations from all across the world. This is called IPTV.

Where we stand with Kodi  right now, is that the developer who made the screen reader, only has it working with the windows platform. However, it's only working on version 16.1 and not 17.3 or 17.4. hopefully in Some time, the developer will make it so it is compatible with version 17.

Hope this helps, Shane.

Which would be better, Google Groups or Google Groups IO. Not sure what is
the difference. And would anyone be interested in joining?

Mario:

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you.

I got into the security settings in the Firefox options menu, and unchecked the "remember logins for sites" and the "use a master password" options, but still get the anoying UAC message whenever I open firefox.

You said something about Bill's suggestion, but I don't remember what that was.

Thanks for any other suggestions you might have.

Tom, you might want to take a look at the security settings. press alt, then t for tools and o for options. arrow down once to the "listbox", press the spacebar and arrow down (or up) to the security category.
keep pressing tab until you get to
Remember logins for sites Alt+Shift+R check box and if it is checked, press spacebar to uncheck it. you may also want to continue to tab to Use a master password Alt+Shift+U check box and make sure it is not checked. the changes are automatically saved when closing the options.
restart FF if necessary.

if it still happens, try Bill's suggestion.

I found the change when these notifications link, and changed the level from 33 to 66, but I still get the UAK message and have to tab over and click on yes before Firefox opens.

I'm using version 52 here.

when the UAC appears, tab to and enter on the change when these notifications appear link, tab to notification level. if you wind up changing it, tab to and enter on the ok button, or if no change is made, just press escape.

I think I did this once before, and the notification level was indeed set to 66.

Can you refresh me as to how to check this, since it's been a while?

Tom, do you know what the notification level of the UAC is set to? if it's set to 66%, the notification should go away when starting Firefox.

Jed:

I, too, an anoyed by this constant message, but, so far as I know, there is no way to get rid of it.

The other thing that has been happening for quite some time now is that, every time I open Firefox, I get a user account control alert message, which I have to respond to, allowing Firefox to access the internet for me.

I'm not sure why this has been happening, and actually tried to get rid of it, but was never successful.

Firefox also seems to have Jaws focus issues, and I'm constantly having to hit the tab key to stay on the web page I'm looking at.

All of this is making me seriously consider moving over to Chrome as my main web browser, but I haven't taken the leap yet.

Re: Outlook 365 web access...I found that it's easier to locate it using Firefox.

Marla Bernbaum
 

If you open settings, and type the word “light” in the search field , it will take you to a check box that allows you to switch between the ”outlook  light” and the standard version.  I think you will have to close and start over before the light version format appears.  Marla
 
 
Regarding:
 

Hi there!  I would highly recommend that you use the light version of Outlook 365.  If you’re using a screen reader, this will be the best set-up.  The emails are displayed in a much more user friendly way.  Finding the setting to switch to the light version is difficult when using Internet Explorer.

Hi all,

 

I have learned so much from your posts, thank you.  Already I have improved through little changes, thanks to you all.

 

Curious if anyone uses the Outlook 365 on the web, I can access work emails at home but it looks very different than the Outlook 2016 I use at work.  Any tips or key commands you can share?

 

Thanks a bunch for sharing your experience-Diane

although I am not a moderator, I heard using groups.io is easier for
those thinking of starting a mailing list, especially for blind
moderators. the management of the ML is less confusing and tedius.

Chris, what would you suggest, or anyone else suggest to be the better
method of a group Selection? Google Groups, or Google Groups IO for
Accessibility reasons?

I don’t think there is a kodi specific group for the blind at this time
So I certainly would be interested  in joining such a group

Hi William,
 
Read the following steps, & if this is what you want then follow them:
If you want nothing said instead of blank in all applications try the
following:
 
1. Open the Settings Center, press, control, shift, + D, to open Settings
Center default all applications.
2. Arrow down to, punctuation closed..., right arrow to open, down arrow to,
customize punctuation...., & press the spacebar to open.  Make sure you
press the spacebar to open & not enter. Pressing enter will close the
Settings Center.
3. Tab to the Advanced button & press spacebar to open.  The first item in
the list will be, blank, so tab 1 time to, edit description.... button, &
press the spacebar to open.  The word, blank, will be in this edit field.
Delete the word, blank, put a space with the spacebar, & press enter.
4. Tab to okay, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar, tab to
apply, press the spacebar, tab to okay, press the spacebar to save your
changes & close the Settings Center.
 
If you don't want this in all applications, open the desired applications
individually & use the above steps in each application.  HTH
Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!
