Google Search Results Not Numbered
Michael B. <mb69mach1@...>
Hi All,
I don't know when this started, but search results with Google are no longer being numbered in Windows 7, IE10, & J15 / J16. With XP, IE8, & J13 / J15 they are numbered. Does anyone know how to get the numbered search results back? I haven't changed home pages or made any settings changes, but something has happened, with Google possibley, so the numbered search results no longer show. The search results show as headings only. All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool. Go Dodgers! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If creating several play list in itunes, after opening up itunes, what is
the quickest way to jump to the play list? I'm a week or so of a user to itunes, so I'm wondering if there is such a keystroke, akinda to like CTRL y in outlook, alt 1 in outlook etc. If not, am I forced to tab several times?

Re: Deleting temp files and cookies, etc.
Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Thanks, Adrian.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
This didn't work, but it did somehow give me the facility to tab past a link field I thought I was getting stuck on. It turns out there was invisible, to the sighted viewer, text and graphics that advertised for the web designer. I found this out by doing a select and copy all and pasting in an email message. JAWS read all the usual same stuff, but it wasn't visible to my sighted daughter. I selected all text and forced all text to black color, and, voila, that's when the text became visible to the sighted. I sent the info on to the site owner who can take this up with the site designer if she wishes. Thanks, Keith

So, you are better make a back-up of the file first. You can temporarily hide the changes by putting the document in "final" view. That, however, is like pretending all the changes were "accepted." There is also a view called "Original," but I think it shows the changes in a kind of reverse though I confess I've never tried this "Original" view. Perhaps it does what you want, shows the document as though no changes have been made, but without, in fact, affecting the structure of the file. Try Alt and then r followed by tab. Arrow right until you get past comments. Then tab until you come to the list of four views: final, final showing mark-up, original, and something I don't remember. I'm going from memory.

Well, I did Alt R, and Left Arrow back, but then also tried Alt F and O and arrowed around to where I could get my directory. I did like that method in 2003 for the last five files. When I get whatever I get in a few months, then I'll buy a book for whatever system I get with the thing.

Hi, Mike. Whether or not you first press escape, Jenny points us to the alt-f, open option. But I'm glad you posted now because I hadn't checked this method when first reading this thread, and I don't think it addresses the original question. Here's what I find.

To begin with, you can press o after alt-f to go right into the open tab. Hence, alt-f, o. When no document is already open, this "open" menu rings up the list of files in the most recently used folder or, if Word has just been opened, the location where Word folders are stored. However, if there is an open file, this menu, among other things, indicates if prior versions of the file exist and, presumably, enable you to open them. That said, the threshold question was whether, in recent versions of Word, it is possible to find the most recent five, or whatever, most recently opened documents. In Word 2003, you pressed alt-f, then arrowed up through that list. I don't find that option after pressing alt-f, o.

Re: opening recent word documents in 2013
Ann Byrne
Do you need the escape key in order to get out of the weird opening view??? Here are a couple of set up notes from CathyAnne Murtha's Word 2013 textbook that will hopefully make the escape key unnecessary:
Disable Reading View By default, most documents open in Reading view within Word. This is difficult for screen readers to maneuver. To disable this setting: * Open Microsoft Word Backstage (ALT-F) * Activate Options (T) * On the first screen of the options, navigate (TAB and SHIFT-TAB) to "Open Email Attachments and other uneditable files in reading view" and uncheck the checkbox. Activate the OK button to close the options and save the changes. Disable the Word Start Screen When you first launch Word, it displays a start screen. You can disable this start screen in the options. * Open Microsoft Word Backstage (ALT-F) * Activate Options (T) * On the first screen of the options, navigate (TAB and SHIFT-TAB) to "Show the start screen when this application starts" and uncheck the checkbox with SPACEBAR. Activate the OK button to close the options and save the changes.
