Adrian -- I have always unloaded Jaws with jaws+f4. I brought up the keyboard manager, but didn't see an entry for jaws+windows+f4. That keystroke is a new one for me. -------------- next part -------

John -- I wanted to turn that crap off back when I could still see. LOL. And I think Dave's suggestion is the only solution: Disable each system tray item individually. Judith -- I'm not quite clear w

I've been using C++ in Visual Studio for years, both without and now with JAWS. There is a VS plugin that helps make Visual Studio more accessible. But even with the plugin, VS is far from a "simple c

I get the "clickable" behavior with the GMail web page. I'm mostly reading email through Outlook these days, but still use Firefox for GMail on occasion. Thanks for this tip, Dennis, I've disabled the

Is anyone using QuickBooks Pro 2012? It's a real pain with JAWS. I did some web searching and there seems to be some accessibility initiatives aimed at developing JAWS scripts for QuickBooks, but I wa

This is not really a JAWS question per se, but I bet someone here knows. What is the keyboard shortcut to open the setting dialog in Mozilla Firefox? I can't find this with a web search. Thanks in adv
