Hi Liz and all, I personally think most of the bugs in Vista have been ironed out in Service Pack 1.

Hi Gary:  Well my friend I am sort of behind in my Jaws only have up to
version 7 at the moment although I am currently uising version 5 on my
computer as I ran across websited where version 7 would not access them.
Don't ask me why so for varied applications, I do have both on the computer. I am using Jaws for windows XP Pro even though I currently am using XP home
as my operating system.  I went this route as I thought I possibly might
upgrade to the XP Pro and now may as well just wait for vista to get the
bugs worked out.  Anyhow, I did not pay the extra $200 I just found about
that option today but may do so and check it out to see if that is a more
workable solution. Braille displays in this instance are useful but I would
also like to have the speech.  Someone on another list suggested I write a
script to try and overcome this issue however, writing scripts I'm not that
good at yet.  Take care and it is always good to learn about new things.

Regards, Liz Wade

Hi Liz,

Which version of JAWS are you using, and is it Pro or Standard?  Also, did
you have to pay the extra $200 to enable Remote Access?

If JAWS doesn't speak during the process I'd be out of luck since I don't
have a Braille display.

Liz,

Is JAWS able to read the other person's computer screen?  Can you run a
program such as Microsoft Word on their system or look at their files
while
using JAWS?

Hi Gary:  Yes you are correct it is the first one that pops up in a
google
search.  I began using this one as remote assistance with windows
messenger
and the one within windows itself were not working for me dut to my
firewall
I think.  With crossloop you do not necessarily need to disable your
firewall as sometimes I forgot to enable it again (smile)  When you open
the
screen you need to do some linking with your jaws to pc/pc to jaws
cursors
but if that doesn't bother you too much it is actually fairly accessible.
You check the boxes depending on whether you want to simply view the
computer or control it.  Let';s see what else did you ask yes it is free
although they always like you to pay money like almost everything.  What
you
may find is that the first few times of use, your connection may be
relatively short before a disconnect is encountered. Depending on who is
doing the sharing and/or accessing, the person requesting remote access
will
have to provide a number if I remember rightly 12 ditigs or so to the
other
person so the codes are the same.  Hope this helps.  Let me know if I
don't
make sense.

Liz

Liz,

The site wasn't hard to find.  I just put Crossloop in Google, and I
think
it was at the top of the search results. I read about the remote control
of

another system, the sharing of screens and sending files.

Are you allowing someone to look at your screen or control your computer?
I

can see how this would work, but can you control someone else's system
using

JAWS?  Also, what is the cost for this service?

You might also try crossloop have had good success with that. If anyone
wants write me on or off list for the file and/or site.

I wish some one would help me get it  to work with windows live or
messenger

as well as the remote assistance in windows xp and vista. I did pay the
200

dollars.

Chris,

If you want to find out what types of remote access you have with JAWS,
go

to the Help Topics in the JAWS Help menu, and Control+Tab to the Index
page. Type the word remote into the edit field, and then read the
topics
found by your search.  If you decide you really need remote access, be
prepared to purchase JAWS Pro and then pay $200 extra for the
privilege.

Hi all, is it true that JFW works with the remote assistance feature
of
MSN/Windows Live Messenger? If so how did you all get it to work? Now
I'm

on high speed broadband this would be a good thing to do, especially
if
I

can help my friends out remotely. Thanks!
