David,

 

Mike wasn’t suggesting you speak German. When you tab to the field he indicated, he was saying you’ll recognize it by the first spoken line. On his system, it’s German. On mine, it’s French. On your system, it’s likely to be one language or another.

 

You can arrow down this list or, as Mario noted, use first-letter navigation. After you get past the languages, you’ll arrive at your list of dictionary entries.

 

I just tried using a period as a first letter to find your term, but it seems I have nothing in my list that begins with that particular punctuation. So, you’ll need to arrow down until you find it. My guess is that it’s near the beginning of the list after you get past the languages, or else it’s near the end. You can go right to the end by pressing the end key.

Hi David,

 

1. While in Inter net Explorer press, Insert + D, to open the IE Jaws dictionary file.

 

2. Tab to the, Tree View, which the German language is at the top, and navigate down this using 1st leter navigation until you have the word highlighted.

 

3. Tab to, Change... button, and press the spacebar to open.

 

4. Tab to, Actual word, if you want to keep this actual word leave this alone and tab 1 time to, Replacement word, and retype this replacement to the way you want Jaws to say it.  If you want to remove the word from the dictionary delete the, Actual word.

 

 

5. Tab to, Okay, and press the spacebar, press, Control + S, to save and Alt + F4 to close the dictionary.

 

Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.  Go dodgers!

Hi list members, i'd like to know how I can correct a jaws dictionary entry for internet explorer?  Thank you.

Les,

Outstanding. Glad you figured it out. Just out of curiosity, where did you locate the setting that had all PDF files opening in Edge?

Alan

Hi Alan,

I wound up solving the problem. I was able to locate the setting that had all pdf files opening in Edge. I was able to change it to Adobe Acrobat. Now, in the testing I did after doing this, all the pdf’s we tried now open in Acrobat. Thanks for the assist. I had installed the Dropbox app as it turns out. What a relief!

Best,

Les

Hi Les,

I believe the lady you're assisting needs to install the Dropbox client on her computer. This will install the Dropbox folders containing all of her Dropbox data currently in the cloud provided she signs into it with the same Dropbox account. I would expect that if she executes a pdf file from its local computer location, Adobe Acrobat should open with that file based on how you set the default file program. You can download the Dropbox client here:

https://www.dropbox.com/install

Hi All,

I am assisting a lady with Dropbox. Her life partner set up all of her files in the cloud, but not on her machine. He recently died, and she does not know how to use Dropbox to change its behavior.  when she accesses a .pdf file, of which she has many, it downloads and opens in Edge. I downloaded Adobe Acrobat on to her machine and chose to use Adobe as the default when opening .pdf files, but they always open in Edge. I’m guessing this is because they are always downloading from the cloud. I wish to have her files stored on her machine. As I use OneDrive, I’m not familiar with how to accomplish this task. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Best,

Les

Hello All:

I am taking part in a church class via Zoom.  I know how to join the meeting and how to mute and unmute my microphone and I have learned the various keystrokes, but I am having a problem when it comes to chatting in a Zoom meeting.  I talked to the host about it, and she was just as surprised as I was, and what both she and I are curious about is whether it is a JAWS or a Zoom problem.

After I open up the chat window and then tab to the list of people available to chat with the first option there is is to chat with everyone.  When I hit the down arrow key it gives the host’s name.  When I hit it again it goes back to Everyone and after I hit it again it says the host’s name, etc., etc.  It does not give the list of everyone in the meeting, so there is no way I can send a private message to the person I would like to send one to.  The host and I can’t figure out why this is so.  Is this a JAWS gliche or is it a problem with Zoom?

There are a few ways of achieving what you want.

New American Bible: The Leading Catholic Resource for Understanding Holy Scripture 

by Harper Bibles
The New American Bible revised edition is more than a mere Bible translation. Authorized by the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine and approved by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, the New American Bible seeks to provide the best resource for understanding the church's sacred Scripture. To begin with, the translation beautifully and accurately conveys the word of God in English, using the most recent scholarly resources available and translating directly from the original languages. While the Bible plays a central role in the church's life, it is also important to remember that it is an ancient book written over several centuries. It carries a rich tradition of interpretation over even more centuries. That is why the many scholars and church teachers who worked years on this project did more than provide a clear and accessible translation; they also sought to provide additional help and guidance for those who truly want to understand what they are reading: Each book of the Bible begins with an introduction, providing the historical context of the work, its literary style, its main themes, its use in the history of the church, as well as an outline of the contents. As you read the Scriptures, notes have been provided at the bottom of the page offering explanations for particular passages, terms, and concepts. Since Scripture often refers to itself, a system of cross-references are provided so you can see where else historical figures, particular stories, or similar concepts are also treated in the Bible. At the end of the Bible, sixteen pages of color maps are provided to help orient the Bible's stories in their geographical context.
