When having JAWS 2018 read on one webpage, and transitioning to another, I am very often having JAWS continue reading what was on the previous page, and quite a bit of it, rather than picking up with the new material on the new webpage. I hasten to add that this is not a transition being made while JAWS is in the midst of reading on one page while the next one loads, but after JAWS has already had reading stopped on the currently displayed page prior to initiating the transition to the next. I can never recall this occurring in older versions of JAWS though, since I don't use JAWS routinely, I might not have encountered the behavior in the past. What gives, and is there a way to stop this from happening? --

I still have Jaws 18 and it also does this. You can fix it by hitting Jaws key plus escape whenever it happens.

Happens all the time in Outlook 2016. What's worse is that refreshing the page doesn't do anything and Jaws will not read what's currently on the page without you having to alt plus tab out of the window or maybe tab or shift tab depending on the window you're on.

Gentlemen (or, perhaps, Lady & Cristóbal), thank you for letting me know that this is not only happening to me. I think my last student with JAWS was on JAWS 17, and I dealt with prior versions all the way back to JAWS 10, and I do not recall that having happened. There have been a couple of major issues with JAWS 2018 on this machine, and I thought we'd resolved them all, and I had the uneasy feeling that this might be the next one rearing its ugly head. Apparently not. --

OH yeah. It's rather annoying. Say if I switch from the calendar tab to the inbox and I’m in the body of the message, Jaws will sometimes just speak the calendar stuff I was just at. The annoying part is when Jaws does this, the navigation keys won't work. I can arrow up or down or by paragraph or even type if I'm emailing or whatever and Jaws is stuck on this text. In order to get focus properly back, I either have to alt plus tab and then back or maybe a control plus sshift plus tab and back. That or say if I'm in a calendar appointment and am in the notes section of the appointment, Jaws will again, speak the other part of the appointment window (appt time and or address) or some other text like the associated email account and again, I have to shift tab and then tab back to get proper focus to have Jaws read where I actually am or where I can review what I just typed and so on. This can happen while I'm in the middle of doing something or if the screen is idle. I've got the fully installed Office 2016 program on my systems so I don't know if that makes any sort of difference with the Office 365 apps.

Have you tried jawsKey and the escape key to refresh the window? I find it often helps. Tom Bisset
