Hello back Stacy

Yes, you need to tell jaws that you are using a laptop, so you will have access to all the powerful keyboard combinations that jaws offers. You tell jaws that you are using a laptop by making the following small setting change in jaws. YOU put yourself in the jaws program window by pressing alt and the tab key until you hear jaws and then let go of the alt and tab keys. Now being in the jaws window, press the alt key and select the options menu selection by arrowing over to options then pressing the down arrow to select the options menu selection. Now arrow down to the basics selection and select it by pressing enter on basics. Now in the basics window, tab over until you come to the keyboard layout tab. Once you are on the keyboard layout selection, arrow down until you come to the laptop selection, now tab over until you come to okay and hit enter. You are now done, you have now finished successfully telling jaws that you use a laptop. Now minimize the jaws window by pressing the alt key and the space bar together then arrow down to minimize and hit enter and now you can have fun on your new laptop.


Hope I have helped you out.
