Zoom is so accessible it's like it's been made especially with blind users in mind. There is literally nothing I've not been able to work out how to do. I'm happy to give any tips. - James

You might want to update to Jaws 2020, but zoom is quite accessible.
There is a zoom training course and some scripts by Hartgen consulting which are very useful. On Thu, 30 Jul 2020 04:34:14 -0400, Hank William Merchant wrote: -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici wb2una covici@ccs.covici.com

place-marckers on websites with jaws 2019
William Windels
Hello,
I work with chrome and jaws 2019.
On some webpages, not all defined marckers on a webpage are shown (from top to bottom) with letter k but, with shift plus k at the end of the page, the missed marckers are shown?
What I do: first, i press ctrl plus home, then k,k,k,k... and then, athe end, i do shift plus k
Vispero said about that: “The order is based on page position, not which marker you set first. It cannot be changed. The order of place markers cannot be changed as to how they appear on a web site.”
So, with this comments from vispero: I should reach all marckers with tab if I go from top (ctrl+home) to bottom? But this doesn’t happen. Any idea’s?

Re: how user friendly is zoom with jaws?
Hank William Merchant
Hello,
I am a jaws18 user using the latest 2004 release of Win10. I have never used zoom, so i am wondering how easy is it to use zoom with jaws to join and be part of scheduled meetings? Any help with this would be so very much appreciated. Much, much thanks in advance for any possible help with this.

Hi Brian,

The traditional conversation view doesn't work. It works well if there is a real conversation so, every body in the discussion replys on the other mail. In my situation, the messages are send separately and have no connection to each other except that de subject and the sender are the same. But this critheria are not enough to determine it as a conversation. Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPhone

I prefer the double tap, because it is more intentional as with a single tap, accidents happen.

Re: android vs ios.
Steve Nutt
Any OS is more intuitive to you if that’s the one you use. iOS is less intuitive to me, and I like the fact that with Android, you can single tap, you don’t have to double or split tap.

I also think iOS is just more intuitive and even after all these years when both platforms have matured, iOS is in my view more polished and easier to use. There is a load of material about iOS and iPhones out there, www.Applevis.com is just one example, Apple has an accessibility support line as well as email address and if you call their support and need help they can even connect to your phone and see what you are doing. There are email lists for both Android and iOS, the Viphone list is one I have been on for the last 10 years or so since I started using an iPhone. If you really want to use a keyboard you can actually get Apple's camera connection cable and use it to connect a USB keyboard, but in my opinion a Bluetooth keyboard makes much more sense with a mobile device and there are lots of great options out there from Logitech as well as others. As for price any high-end Android phone nowadays costs just as much as the high-end iPhones, yes, you can probably pick up a cheap Android phone for $200 or so, but then again the new iPhone SE 2 which was recently released also is not that expensive and from all I heard on the Viphone list as well as in general it's fantastic phone. I guess it all depends on what you plan to do with the phone, for me being able to transfer information from my PC to the phone by copying and pasting is not very important, I have an Apple Music subscription so I never store mucis on the device any more, I do just about all my audio book listening on Audible and the odd book I have in MP3 I can easily transfer to Voice Dream Reader via Dropbox. I consider to be a pretty profficient user of my iPhone, but I absolutely don't believe in being able to replace a computer with my iPhone, I don't compose long texts on my phone, if I have to type a longer email or want to have an on-going text chat on Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp or other app I do use my Bluetooth keyboard. I have a Logitech K780 which I use via its USB dongle as my primary keyboard for my laptop and if I want to use it wih my iPhone all I have to do is press FN+F2 and it switches over, when I'm done I press F1 and I'm back on my PC.
Best regards, Sieghard

I have both, and in terms of ease of use with regard to the gestures, it is my opinion that the iPhone is much easier to operate. On the other hand, with Android, I can have Eloquence for the voice, and I can simply copy and paste to and from my computer to the Android phone. With Android, you can get a USB adapter and plug in a desktop keyboard or anything USB, you can't do that with IOS.

hi folks,
i know that this is not the forum for this question, but maybe one of you good people might have some ideas as to where i should go. currently, i have an old nokia phone about 300 years of age. i have decided to take the great leap into the unknown and start using a modern tap screen phone. i have a samsung android phone with talkback on it, but it is proving to be somewhat of a trouble. i would say, that it is just because i am new to it, but web sites offering training tips seem to be non existent. also, the braille keyboard seems to be a bit of a pain. i also dont want to have to attach a keyboard to it, as this defeats the purpose of having a phone you can carry around with you. on the other hand, i have heard, that apple's voice over is much better. again, training seems to be the problem. i should be able to get my hands on an ifone. any thoughts? anyone prefer one over the other? cheers, pat

Hi. If you have a free account its 40 minutes. Just be sure you
don't give out your PID to anyone who shouldn't have it.

I could be wrong, but I think that I read that the meeting ID can be used
for 24 hours. If the meeting is set up as a reoccurring meeting, the
meeting ID is good for 6 month.

Re: How long is a Zoom meeting available?
The one thing I'll add is that your decision should be partially driven by "how private" any one of those meetings is in terms of someone not hanging around and listening in.
If you know that you only want specific people to attend, then separate meetings might be a good idea, since only those chosen attendees would be given the link for their specific meeting. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.

Provided you have a Zoom account that allows meetings in excess of 40 minutes when attended by more than two people, I'd save yourself the administrative grief and schedule one meeting. Alan Lemly

Do you have a license for Zoom? If you have a license for Zoom, check the Zoom website about your plan and its features. You might be able to have all three hours without setting up new rooms for each hour.

Hello!
Just a few weeks ago, I had Zoom meetings which lasted for nearly 4 hours consecutively. The meetings were hosted by a pro account holder. With that being said, I guess you should be able
to have all the three zoom meetings as planned, from nine, to 10, to 11.

Re: conversations withjaws in outlook 2013
Why not just use conventional conversation view, which uses date, and make the sort order newest to oldest?
Very conventional, very common, and gets you to the very message you want, every time, if you've either read the earlier ones or deleted them. Otherwise you'll land on the first most recent unread one, I think. I tend to clean out what comes in very quickly when it comes to business related messages, so I don't often have anything but the most recent one in a given conversation when the next message arrives to begin with. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.
