Hi list,

How can I activate ‘save’ or ‘open’ when downloading something with JAWS?

Cheers,

Hi. arewhat windows version are you running? I'm using Windows 8, and
I found you need to hold down Alt N to open the notification tray.
Unlike previous windows versions, which automatically open the "run"
"open" or "save" box for you upon downloading a file, it doesnt'
doesn't in Win. 8. I hope this helps. Just arrow to the selection you
want in the box sndand enter on it.

Gezim,

As Jen said, it would help if you could tell us which web browser you're referring to and perhaps what kind of problem you're having. Traditionally, on pressing a download link, you could press alt-s to save to your computer or alt-o to open the file without saving. With IE9, you now need to press alt-n before making these selections, which you find by arrowing.

There might be more to say, but there's no point in going on without knowing the exact problem.

If in IE 9 you can also press alt S for save, it is the option I use all the
time when on Bard, saves me having to Alt N and hunt for it. Obviously I
don't want to run those books.

Hi Adrian and all,

I am using Internet Explorer 9, and hyou all have been helpful enough. The problem was that I was used to using the traditional way, so now I didn't know how to access the 'download' button'.

Many thanks,
Gezim
