Even lots of sighted people think the interface is crap, and I blame that programme for permanently screwing up my father's ideas about how his PC's file system works. Good luck finding alternatives if you're using an IDevice to play music...I'm sure some google searches will yield positive results.

0.1 TW_JF BODY: Odd Letter Triples with JF X-Antivirus: AVG for E-mail 8.5.449 [271.1.1/3363] Dear Friends, Well, I have to add my 2 cents. I could not use "Itunes" with JAWS 11, latest build and my XP machine. And even after having 2 sighted fairly computer technically inclined people try to help me on two separate occasions, I still could not use it, to put some music on this Itunes "Shuffle", and either could they! So My Hats off to those using the thing! Yes, I salute you! With Best Regards, Alan Miami, Florida----- Original Message ----- From: <crystallogic@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Happy Winamp user here. Every time I look at Itunes I throw my hands up in utter bewilderment. Everything about the programme goes against what I believe a good experience with a PC should be like. haha If winamp ever leaves me unsatisfied, there are a few other players that I'd try. Does anyone have experience using Fubar with JAWS? What's it like? Quoting John Martyn <johnrobertmartyn@xxxxxxxxx>:iTunes is slow to start and lags even without jaws. But I suppose a music addict with 20,000 songs can't complain. iTunes is what I use for my library. I just get the new music from Rhapsody. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yadiel Sotomayor" <yadosotomayor@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2011 9:02 AM Subject: Re: Itunes20,000 songs!!!!!!!!!! Man! Now that's a lot!!! I only have 9,000. Maybe that is it. I suggest if you can upgrade your RAM to 3 or 4 GB. It will improve iTunes with jaws. And it will improve your computting experience overall.

I use it dailly. In fact, I am using it right now. Here, this is a link for a 2 part tutorial on iTunes. The second part comes out this month so keep an eye open. http://www.freedomscientific.com/FSCast/default.asp A list of different podcast will appear. Select the december 2010 episode. I believe it is episode 49. Listen to it. You will learn a lot. Don't dispair! Once you learn to use iTunes you will like it. Also, if you plan to use or buy an iPod, iPhone or iPad (or any combination of those devices) you will need iTunes.

But, I suggest you take out any and all non essential icons. e.g. if you don't use tv shows, take it out. I also suggest you maintain all itunes media on the itunes folder. Not on your usual music folder. iTunes needs to check every tag and it slows thing down. For example, I have all of my music on one folder on my external hardrive, and I also have there my movies. so it doesn't matter what happens, itunes only has 1 place to look and download material. other than that I suggest you double the minimum requirements. for example, if itunes needs 1 GB of ram to play music, bring it up to 2 or 3. that way itunes will have almost unlimited ram to do whatever it wants. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Nickus de Vos" <bigboy529@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 05, 2011 5:52 PM To: "Jaws" <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ItunesHi all i'm new to this list, new to jfw and new to itunes. I run jfw 11 and recently installed itunes 10, since then i've realised that jaws is slow to respond when i press something. This aspecially happens when i'm navigating around in itunes and sometimes it.'s even slower to respond than others. Is this normal or can i do something to fix it? -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
