Hi Kimsan,

What version of JAWS are you running and what version of your web browser are you using? If you're using an older version of JAWS with Internet Explorer 8 or higher, you might encounter this problem, in which case you need to update your JAWS or roll back to an earlier browser version. Just a thought. Hope this helps. Tom

doesn't replace earlier ones. They exist side-by-side. When you go to programs from the start menu, press j and arrow down, you'll find all the versions of JAWS stored on your system. You can select which version takes precedence by checking the "Automatically start JAWS" checkbox that you find as follows: 1. Press insert-j. 2. Press enter on options. 3. Press enter on Basics. 4. Tab to "Automatically start Jaws" and press spacebar. 5. Tab to OK and press spacebar again.

This was also addressed in Internet Explorer. * Toggling the Document Automatically Reads check box in Quick Settings now works as expected. When this option is cleared, JAWS will not automatically read the Web page after it loads. Visual Studio * Addressed an issue where you had to press ALT+TAB to move away from the application and back to get focus into the output window after starting a compile. Windows 7 * Addressed an issue encountered after using ALT+TAB to move to the Desktop where JAWS would not announce the count of the selected item, for example, five of eight. Pressing INSERT+T would also not speak the window title. This did not occur if WINDOWS Key+M was used to go to the Desktop.

Re: Authorizing JAWS using a PacMate (was SMA Notice)

Hi Dave;

I believe your assumtions are correct, if you don't authourize, then? Jaws is in 40 minute mode, really not worth the hasel.

Re: Assigning certain websites to language?
Tom Lange
Hello Gerardo,
You wrote: HI guys: Suppose I want to tell certain websites to come up speakingI know of no way to do this. If I remember correctly, it should work the other way around. If (1) the web site in question has the properly coded language tags in its HTML code, (2) you're using a multilingual synthesizer that supports the language in question, and (3) you've got language detection turned on in the settings center, JAWS should automatically switch to that language and read the web page in that language. Turning language detection on is easy with JAWS 12 or higher. Press insert+6 to go into settings center and type "language" in the search box, then press enter. In the search results list, you'll see an item labeled "Language detection". If it's not turned on, its checkbox will be unchecked; just hit the space bar to turn it on, tab to Apply, then tab to OK and press enter. Hope that helps. Tom

Not sure what the problem was: However, Jaws13 takes a little longer to install because of the OCR feature/files needs to be downloaded, Also, if you tried to activate, not sure wich version of windows, however, if it's vista, or win7, Maybe the UAC was blocking the FSActivate process, as it did with one of my clients.

I imagine this means I'm out of keys, and will have to refill before I can install here at the office. The Tandem worked fine (yes, Virginia, you can do it on dial up), but I can't figure out where the block was, and have no guarantee it won't happen again next year. As I'm running XP Pro, the solution put forth last week is inapplicable. It has to be something small. On the plus side, this looks to be lucky 13--really sweet. I had a little trouble with OCR, but finally realized Eric was using different settings on his machine. After reading the help screen several times, I finally realized the whole thing had to be done with the JAWS cursor, which is why it kept saying JAWS cursor--talk about getting hit over the head. The formatting was lousy on the Kenwood manual, and there were a lot of typos, but it worked! Boy, were you guys right about the default voice--sounds like Julia Childes in drag!

Subject: Re: installing jfw without burning a key Kimsan, So you're saying that your JAWS 12 runs in 40-minute mode and you have no more activations left on the FSActivate web site? IF so, it won't help your install of JAWS 13. If you had previously saved your activation and authorization folders from your previous non-demo-mode JAWS 12 you could then recover them and JAWS 12 should then run normally. If you have JAWS 12 running normally then installing JAWS 13 should not require you to reactivate -- unless...you don't have any more SMA to allow you to run JAWS 13. If that is the case, the technique to not burn a key will not help. So I'm a bit confused with your question and your exact situation, as you can surmise.

Re: Authorizing JAWS using a PacMate (was SMA Notice)
David <davidwhitehead1957@...>
Hello Dave;
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Well I could be wrong in my assumption, However, my understanding is; Once you've downloaded and extracted J13.0.303_Portable-32bit.exe Or; J13.0.303_Portable-64bit.exe You take this thumb drive to another computer, which doesn't have jaws installed. You then will need to also install the video intercept, Next when the portable version starts, You will be promted to activate. Once this is done, I think the thumb drive is useable on any computer. Also, if one has a dongle, you would need to also have plugged into the machine with the portable thumb drive version. I did try, the steps, however, I wasn't inclined to burn a ILM so, I did put my dongle in, and the thumb drive portable was activated.

Subject: Re: Authorizing JAWS using a PacMate (was SMA Notice) David, So if I plug my thumb drive into a non-JAWS computer and launch JAWS, does it come up in 40-minute mode until I go to FSActivate? If yes, do I burn a key each time? Or conversely is the authorization already built on to the thumb drive so that as long as it's plugged in, that computer runs an authorized version?

Subject: Re: Authorizing JAWS using a PacMate (was SMA Notice) Well,, The intent of the thumb drive version is I think meant as a temporary usage of JAWS on another machine, so I would expect that it be operating either in 40-minute mode, or operating unimpeded until the thumb drive is removed. Anyone know which of these are true?
