I have used a laptop for many years and would never go back to a desktop. You should do some research on diferent computers before making your purchase. You might also consider purchasing one with Win

I believe updating can always be a challenge. I went from XP to Windows 7 and am very comfortable using it. I think there will be some challenges going from JAWS 12 to 15 but after you learn the new c

UEB stands for Unified English Braille and there will be some changes to the braille code. Some contractions will no longer be used and there will be a space between words like of, the, with... I don'

I thought we would still use nemeth code for scientific and math notation.

Could it have started when you upgraded to the most recent version of JAWS 15 that came out in August? It might be a bug in that release.

Did you try routing your JAWS cursor and then left mouse click. Sometimes, when I do that it works.

Several months ago I asked about a program that would allow me to record a teaching lesson. Someone suggested Camstudio and I have it but it presents so many challenges that it doesn't work for me. I

You need to move the documents you want into that folder. You can either cut (cntrl x) or copy (cntrl c), go to the folder you want the document in and paste (ctrl v).

It is insert 6. I use the 6 above the key board. I have never tried the one on the num pad.

I have JAWS 13, 14, 15 and 16 all on my computer. I am getting ready to delete 13. I usually work with 15 because there are still too many issues with JAWS 16. I am sure Freedom Scientific will come o

I would never depend on that letter. If you go into JAWS with insert + J and arrow down to about it will tell you the version of JAWS and how many, if any, upgrades you have. Freedom Scientific will a

JAWS has had those features for several versions now. I would guess they were not set up in the past or were changed. I am glad they are working for your grandson now.

It did work in JAWS 15 because I use it regularly. I have been using JAWS since 1998 and I can't remember when that feature didn't work. I still use JAWS 16 on a limited basis because I am waiting for

Actually, NLS and Bookshare books are in a special format like DAISY or BRF that sighted people can't access. The argument publishers make is that if a screen reader that is on the phone or similar de

Good afternoon. I have not received any message except that I am on the list since before Christmas. I hope this gets through and I receive messages. Marianne Denning, TVI marianne@... ----

I did check spam just after I sent the original email and that is where they are. For some reason a lot of emails started going into spam. Now I need to figure out what to change so that stops happeni

I use m.facebook.com rather than the regular facebook page and do most of the things I want. I am sure there is a lot I don't do though.

This is just a guess, maybe they made a change in such a way that JAWS 12 can't read it anymore. That version of JAWS is several years old. Does that happen?

Talking Typing Teacher by Marvel Soft is terrific. It is fun for people of all ages. Is Typeability the one that Freedom Scientific has?

There, at one time, were apps for the Windows 8 computers but I don't think most of them were accessible. I am not sure how that went over. Otherwise, they are for Macs and iphones, ipads...
