Brian,

Not surprising. I've noticed that certain applications cause JAWS to change its 
overall behavior in other applications. Likely due to those applications 
changing some display attributes, or mucking around with the video chain and/or 
the object model stored in virtual memory.

I've just learned to live with it, kill JAWS and restart.

  I'm using JFW 11 with Windows XP, and I've found that JFW says Copy, Cut, and 
Paste just fine until I run iTunes.  After that, the key strokes are silent 
until I reboot my machine.

  Blessings,

  Brian

    I kind of hate the gymnastic, but I sometimes use the key combo insert, 
windows key, X to read the clipboard when Reed Eloquent chokes up.

      I am currently using JAWS 11 with Windows Vista and I have a similar 
problem.  However, my JAWS trainer said that with the version of JAWS, Vista 
and Office, it is probably a problem that you will have to train yourself to 
get used to.  I know that is not much help, but it is the best that I can do 
for you.  Maybe there is someone else with a different, if not helpful, answer.

        This happens sometimes. Suddenly, jaws will refuse to speak when I 
copy, cut or paste something. Does anyone know how to force him into speaking 
and not merely being silent on these things without having to keep restarting?
