Hi Bill,

Do you perhaps have your Emails displayed as plain text, rather than HTML? If so, you won’t get it as a link.

Hi, Brian. When I get the message saying, click here to view the message in your browser, it is just a notification, and there seems to be no way to click the link. There doesn't even seem to be a link when perusing the message. So there seems to be no way to actually look at the prompt to click here. I'm sure that, as a sighted person, there is some place that this prompt appears, but I know of no way of focusing on the prompt, or of finding the link that allows one to click and view the message in the browser.

Richard,

Might I ask what happens if you gain focus on that "click here" link and activate it?

I can't recall the last time I've actually done this either the sighted "point and click" method or with a screen reader, but I've done it enough that my observation is that activating that link should cause your default web browser to open with that page loaded (or at least loading, depending on how quick your internet is and how large what needs to be loaded).

Hi,

It’s better as a phone app to be honest, I use it on Android and it is accessible.

A few years ago, I basically stopped using ND because it became *so* inaccessible.  Before then, it was somewhat accessible.  Shame on them.

Hi, all, I used to, say a year or so agao, be able to send a post to Next Door. I’m looking for a dog walker for my pet dog and wanted to post on there but it is impossible. I’ve tried different ways, going to “post a message” or “messages” and they want me to fill in the area I want it to go which I can’t seem to do. Has anyone had any luck with posting a message on there and if so, please let me know what you did and how you did it. Thanks so much in advance. Frustrated Judy & Libby

That doesn’t work for me, it just reads the subject line, date, to and from, etc.

Anyway, it doesn’t make sense, as the information you want is on the status line if you want the number of messages in the inbox.

All the best

Hi,
The easiest thing is to use the JAWS keystroke for reading the current line (Insert Up Arrow) while focus is on any message in the inbox.

I have used both of these headsets. The microphones are not so sensitive as to pick up ambient sound. I have my microphone sensitivity in Zoom set to 100% with minimal noise suppression. Honestly, for me, the headset from A.T. guys has a microphone which gives my voice a louder volume than the one from Plantronics.

 

Why is your volume set as high as 80%? I mean, is your screen reader talking really loudly?

 

Cordially,

hi,

How well are these with ambient noise from your experience? Also, if computer volume is say about 80% does  microphone pick up the speech? I’ve purchased a few and return them which is why I wanted personal experiences. These companiesThese companies market nic noise cancellation and they don’t do well from my experience. Thank you

Greetings:

 

There are two possible headsets that I could recommend.

 

1. Plantronics – Blackwire 3220 – Wired Dual-Ear (Stereo) Headset with Boom Mic – USB-A to connect to your PC and/or Mac from Amazon
2. V7 Deluxe USB Stereo Headset with Microphone, Mute/Volume Button from A.T. Guys.

 

HTH.

Hi all,

Looking for a stereo USB headset that does not leak speech through the microphone. I tried the logitech H300 and it leaked speech. Anyone have experience with any duel or single USB headset?

I still cannot get this to occur when I press JAWS key and page down, anyone know answer to this?

Thanks,

Dan

I believe this was covered a few times.

Where do you go in outlook  to set it up so jaws reads number of messages in inbox.

Hi everyone, I asked about this awhile back and cannot locate the responses.  My apologies.

I have Win 11 and latest version of JAWS on Dell laptop.

When I turn on PC, Jaws is all lively and works fine for me to enter pin on log in, then promptly goes silent.

I’m forced to use keyboard commands to desktop and first letter navigation to turn JAWS back on.

How do I get JAWS to just  stay on without this interruption after log in?

Thanks, again,

Dan
