support. I have Eloquence 32 bit for Android, but haven't used it beyond Android 6 or 7, so I don't know if it would work on more recent Androids. Maybe there is a 64 bit of Eloquence for Android too. Glenn

accessing a feature on TWBlue
Madison Martin
Hi all, One of the things that can be done on TWBlue is accessing “following timelines”, I’d really like to do this but can’t figure out how, can anyone help me? Using latest versions of Jaws, TWBlue (or at least I think so) and Windows 11. Madison |

You probably do not have to worry about whether the virtual ribbon menus are used or not because, by default, they are turned off. However, an easier way to check is to do the following:
Hope this helps.

Jaws Home Annual?
Claudia
Hi,
After a long stint of not updating, due to a variety of reasons, I have finally bought Jaws Home Annual. Is there a way to make this a portable copy, for me to install on a USB drive? Or, does this require me to obtain a different version? Thanks.

jaws and vintage classic voices
Josh Kennedy
So because iPhone will be getting many more vintage classic tts voices like eloquence and classic mac voices, why not jaws? Could everyone on here write to freedom scientific asking for the return of sapi4 voices like l&h TruVoice, and other sapi4 tts engines and decTalk, because decTalk seemed to be the most common tts back in the 80s and 90s. DecTalk works with NVDA but the addon frequently breaks because of them always updating it once a year and if decTalk 4.1 through 4.6 was in jaws well it would just work. Keynote gold multimedia tts is probablly out of the question but I think they could at least bring back sapi4 support and put a couple decTalk versions into jaws.

outlook 2019 and jaws 2022 and unread messages
William Windels
Hello,
I use outlook 2019 with jaws 2022 and now, the amount of unread messages aren't shown anymore when I move between the different inboxes in Outlook with the arrow-keys. The strange thing is that that amount is showing corectly when I use jaws 2020. The jawssettings in jaws 2022 are migrated from my jaws 2020 so this settings should be nearly identical. It has never worked in jaws 2022. Thx for any hints Kind regards, William Windels Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPhone |

Re: Federal Employment and Accommodations
Dan Longmore
Hi, I hope you will not give up. From taking and teaching classes I know both ends of the feeling of being overwhelmed. The student perspective and the teacher or employer perspective where lots of information must be given at once even though the employee will feel snowed under . I pray you will get patient people within the office to work with you and will have the resources to meet the challenge. Dan

Thanks for all of the suggestions here. I honestly feel like I’m drowning. I went from feeling very competent on my previous job to feeling like I can’t do anything. I know these are always new challenges, when starting a new job, but this is so very daunting. There are so many systems to learn within the organization, and I honestly am having difficulty with just the basic training aspect of things. Accessing training in Success Factors is hit or miss, even on my personal computer, because the trainings don’t appear to all be formatted the same.

Hi.
If your workplace provides Adobe Acrobat Pro, it has oCR built in – if you need oCR functionality, I would use this and not JAWS. If the forms are created properly, you’ll also be able to use this programme to fill them out. It works rather likea webpage. When you finish, there’s usually a save button, which will save the form and, if required, send it to its destination on the network/over the internet. Not all forms are created equal though, so you’ll have to take it on a case by case basis.

Hello All,
I just began a new job this week, with the federal government. I have requested the following accommodations, JFW, a braille display, such as the Focus 40 Blue and an iPhone thus far.
I have already found the following issues. They use Adobe a great deal, so I need something that I can use to fill out forms? Is this doable, even with using something like Adobe Acrobat DC? I have sent myself some of the required forms to my private e-mail and have been able to open them with my iPhone, but I'm not sure I can fill them out this way.
If I've requested JFW, is there any potential reason why I'd also need Kurzweil, seeing as JFW has the built-in OCR?
The department I work for also uses a Soft Phone system, which I'm told will not be accessible, so I've requested an iPhone as an alternative.
They have offered me a reader, but I don't see myself needing that enough to justify that expense for the department as well. I successfully did this job, at a state level, with minor issues, for 10 years.
If you'd rather not clutter up the list, please feel free to e-mail me directly. Thanks.
Claudia
