When my speakers blew on my laptop. I looked into getting a Blue Tooth speaker. The salesman talked me out of it stating, “Every time you start or restart the laptop you have to pair the speaker with

I’ve been following this thread. I downloaded Grover, I’m not sure how you are getting to any of the controls you mentioned. All I here is “button”, “button”, button”. What exactly are these buttons.

If at all possible I talk to people via the telephone in tech support rather then chatting via computer. So many things can get lost in translation and you have no idea at times how things are underst

I’ve not used Internet explorer for a long time. I got tired of the prompt from websites that it was outdated and suggested to use Google or Firefox. Edge is more like Google now so I use Edge primari

Thanks. I was just about to ask how to remove protective view from a document that was sent to me a few years ago. The person in question, just resent it to me in unprotected mode. I obviously don’t n

Sometimes you get good help at Microsoft and sometimes you don’t. I had one rep tell me not to turn off my WIFI again. True she was joking but, there is a time and a place for jokes and after spending

I got a 6 channel mixer from Amazon, I can’t remember how much, I just remember it was cheap for the options it had. I think it was around $29.95. I have JAWS running through it. So, the zoom calls ru

I think it is the way they are hearing words with o u in them. Last night she was telling me about a U S gentleman that pronounced house as huse. Thus, she wanted me to pronounce it the same way. Peop

Some of the voices recorded by humans, sound a little off too. One of the female U S voices sounds like she is having a bad day all the time and needs to chill out as they say. I guess it all comes do

I suspect she was just listening to the wrong person or someone was pulling her leg. Just like Canadians are supposed to say A all the time. At one guide dog school, since I was the only Canadian ther

These more human sounding voices were not meant to be used at the fast rates many blind people listen to synthesised speech. This was the exact reason why some blind persons, not me, prefer eloquence

I was chatting with someone from New Zealand and she told me some of her compatriots were mimicking the U S accent. Thus it is not just the screen reader voices, it is Different nations voices. Exampl

Funny because some prefer eloquence over real speak from JAWS. The person who did the Australian voice for JAWS said she had a huge manuscript the size of a phone book to record. Also the Texas versio

Lino, Try and be patient. If I remember correctly the official version of 2021 will be released Oct. 10. I could be wrong though. I just know it is sometime in Oct.

I posed this query to an X nun, well, she feels she is still a nun even though she was kicked out of the convent. She suggested a website however, I think the suggestion below is the best. Btw, the X
