Hello,

     Has anyone figured out that you can use timed lilcenses for JAWS as well? Listen to the appropriate FS cast about this/look it up in other ways.

Well said, Angel, if somebody has problems coming up with $120 every two years at once they should put a $5 bill in a piggy bank or jar every months or set up a savings account which is usually free and put $10 or $20 a month in that so they can use it for things like that. There will always be other emergencies where it's not a bad thing to have a few hundred Dollars readily available and having such an emergency fund which you don't touch except for dedicated expenses or emergencies is a good thing for those who otherwise live hand to mouth so to speak.

How can we be expected to be considered responsible blind adults, capable enough to become employed, or to be able to care for ourselves,  if we can't even save five dollars a month to renew our smas?

The only thing, I don't think you can pay $5 a month, I think you have to pay $120.00 in one whack, which is very hard for some people, who might find it easier to pay $5 a month. However, logistically, $5 a month would cost FVO more than $120 every two years - cost in terms of logistics, processing, cost of processing, recording, etc.

Carolyn

Not sure how that works and if you can even buy single upgrades.
Given that if you have Jaws Home maintaining an SMA costs you all of $5 a month I don't know why you wouldn't simply buy the SMA every two years. It's I think $120 every two years and you get two major versions, so it's $60 per version. Jaws unlike NVDA is not a nonprofit organisation and as a business owner myself I definitely don't begrudge them this relatively minor amount of money. I know some people who don't work and are on some sort of assistance feel this is a heartship, but $5 a month I don't think can be considered a heartship as most of us spend this and more on al sorts of incidental items whether it's a fancy coffee, a beer once a week or cigarettes, in fact somebody who smokes usually wastes a lot more than $5 a month.

Sieghard

Re: How to choose voice

Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS)
 

That switches synthesizers, if he wants to select voices within synths, he needs to look under voices-voice adjustment in the main JAWS menu.

Hi

I have a payroll report that is several pages sometimes only 2 but as many as 20.  I need to print a hard copy of the last page.

When I use WE I do a  Mouse find for the word “All”. Then I would use the mouse to read the different radio selections down to the page range box. Now I know how many pages there are in the  document 1 – 8 or 1 – 15 however many there are, I arrowed back up to the page range selection and click that radio button tab once to the edit box and type the number of the last page and press enter to print.

I can’t figure out the quick way to do this with JAWS. The JAWS find command will not find all. It always fails.

It is a lot of tabbing to get to the radio buttons and the page range is just past that

 

Thanks for your time

Shannon
Context of sentences, too?

Ashleigh Piccinino
 

When you do this, can you figure out where the misspelled word is by pressing insert c for getting any context—reading the sentence/whatever to which the word pertains? Also, does it work in a Word document? Just for fun, I’ll edit my sociology notes that way later on, figuring this out for myself but keep this thread on here anyway for others.

Re: jump to Spelling errors in Outlook 2010

Shannon
 

Paul , thanks for this. I didn't know that was a choice. I just tried it and
that command works for me too.
The Alt F7 is just a bit different. It just takes the curser focus to the
word in the application that is marked as incorrect and from there pressing
the context key gives the choices of correction.
The spell check dialog talks too much for most of what I need.
Thanks for the pointer.

Another step in the dialogue, not just pressing okay

Ashleigh Piccinino
 

Hello,

     As you press the CTRL insert and s command, you can also make the voice the default or use it in another app you happen to be running. If you note the first item on this dialogue, you should be able to use the default—shift tab if you don’t hear JAWS say, “for default” first. However, the press of the tab key once will get you to “for …” for your app in question. Of course, you cannot choose a person, just the synth, so be aware of that. Yet, just press enter/okay after you’ve made your selection. To test it, go back into that app and notice the voice/synth change automatically. Need any more help? Feel free to write back.

Hi Joseph,
 
In windows 7, if I copy a file, I don't get a dialog, but when I go to paste it, I can tab to a, More Information button, is this the checkbox / button you're referring to, or are the options different in Windows 10 verses Windows 7?  Thanks much.
Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Subject: Speaking percentage in copy or move dialogs in Windows 10

I have noticed that sometimes JAWS will speak the percentage of completion
in the copy or move dialogs in Windows 10, and sometimes it won't. Any ideas
on this? Is my problem a screen resolution or color setting, or do I need to
get my hands dirty (ha ha) and write a script for it?

Laura,

 

IF it did work in the past, and your Pearl camera or scanner are turned on, then likely Openbook does not find your scanning device. Try closing Openbook, unplug the USB for scanning device, plug it back in, and then launch Openbook.

Hello,

 

I’m using Open Book version 9 and Jaws 18 …… I can’t get Open Book to scan a document.  Usually I open the program and press the space bar to scan.  When I press the space bar to scan it says “Open Book untitled one”.  If I press the space bar again it says “Acquisition canceled”.

 

Can anybody help? …… I’ve never had this problem before.

 

Thanks,

Unplug your scanner, and then plug it in, with Openbook not running. Then launch Openbook. Likely OB has just lost the USB connection to your scanner.

Did you set up the scanner in openbook before you tri to select it?

If there is no devices set up there will be no choice in the box and if it says scanner it is the defalt but will not work if you did not set up the scanner first through openbook

Re: Open Book & Jaws 18 problem solved

I have not used OnniPage for years and years. When I tried it, the work arounds to use a screen reader were a lot of work.
I have to admit, I didn't have to buy OpenBook originally, just paid for a few, very early upgrades, then got on the beta team, so It hasn't been a financial burden for me.
But, if I were starting from scratch today, I would use OCR on my iPhone and not bother with the computer.
What version of OmniPage are you using and what work arounds do you have to do?
Thanks,
Richard

I have not done this yet, but I'm sure they are saying
that once you are in the spell check dialog, alt-f7 focuses
Jaws on the misspelled word and opens the application menu
so you can pick the correction.
I think it was assumed you were already in the spell

As do I.

But the question was to get the word in context I believe.

Two people offered alt-f7 as the way to do that, and the original questioner said that the manual said insert+f7.



When I try alt+f7 in Outlook 2016 running Windows 10; Outlook crashes and restarts and there is no sign of the message I was spell checking.

Insert+f7 worked the one time I tried it where it spelled the misspelling, then the corrected suggestion and I could either tab to ignore, add or change, etc.
