Subject: [jaws-users] Help required with JAWS and Emails

 

Hello all,

 

I don’t know what I may or may not have done. But I have just noticed that while I am writing an email, I see nothing on my braille display, this is in the address field and also the body of the message. I am sorry if this is the wrong list to ask but I am literally in the dark here!

 

Regards

 

Chris

Control-y doesn't go to the folder list. control-d says 'add to favorites'.
So it's going to the internet explorer menu instead of the ribbon for
outlook. How do I get to the stinkin' ribbon????

The delete key works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't. could it have to
do with virtual cursor being on or off? sometimes it works right away and
sometimes not. I can't figure out what I am doing differently.

dialog which will allow you to go to any mailbox folder.
If an email is open, Control-D will delete it.
If the message is closed, delete should work.

Hope this helps you get started.

Subject: [jaws-users] Using Outlook 365 with JAWS

The college uses Outlook 365 for email. When I press the delete key,
sometimes the item is deleted and sometimes it isn't. When I press the
applications key, sometimes the menu displayed includes delete, but
sometimes it is the internet explorer menu showing back, forward, etc.
I haven't seen the list of mailboxes anywhere.
The checkbox with the email doesn't show with either JAWS, NVDA, or
Narrator.

If somebody could give me clues as to how to operate the beast, I would
appreciate it. If I could figure out how to access Outlook Light
instead of Outlook Obnoxious, that would be even better. Perhaps
because it's the college, I don't have that option.

thanks,

Ann

The browser isn’t the issue. It’s being bounced out of Facebook when an email message arrives. I have no idea why this would happen, but this is what I understand to be the question.

 

 

Oh, Okay.

Well the composing in word or notepad is still good.

But, Not sure.

 

Hav eyou tried this in different browsers?

Justin

 

 

I should have mentioned that this happens not only in Facebook but in any web site when I am in an edit field.

 

 

 

Either use the moble site, or compose the message in notepad or word then paste it in.

 

Justin

 

 

 

Whenever I am in an edit field in Facebook writing something and I receive an email message in Outlook I am thrown out of the edit field.  I can find my way back to where I left off but it’s aggravating to say the least.

Using latest build of Jaws 2019, Internet Explorer and Outlook 2016.

Any solution?

Thanks!

Hi all,

If I remember correctly, someone on here said that the F keys could be changed on a Dell laptop with a key combination. I believe it had the escape key involved, but don’t remember the other key(s).

If someone could help, I’d appreciate it. I just got a new Dell and want to change these.

Thanks for any and all help provided.

Kurt

I owe an apology to the list.  I thought my problem was narrator but it
turned out to be NVDA .  I noticed an NVDA icon on my desktop and I knew
that I did not put it there so I went to control panel to program and
features and found NVDA and uninstalled it and now everything is fine.  My
pology to the list and thanks to all that tried to help me.    The Microsoft
tech that was helping me put the NVDA icon on my desktop..

I am using W 10, jaws 2019 and
chrome browser and can not
find way to turn off narrator.
About 10 days ago I had a
computer crash that took out
everything pretty much except
some files and folders.  With
Microsoft handicap help I have
about 75 percent back to
normal.  In helping me the
technician used narrator and
NVDA  but failed to turn off
narrator after finishing.
When I boot up or shutdown the
computer narrator doubles with
jaws and I can not find
setting to turn off narrator.
If someone could tell me how
to do this I would greatly
appreciate it.  I have gone
through the Ease of access
settings but found nothing.  I
never use narrator so I am not
very familiar with it.  Will
appreciate any help.
