Re: What does "Unavailable imply about a program's status with JAWS

From what I know about scripting for rhapsody, it did this unavailable thing 
yet the program responded a couple seconds later. It seems as though the 
application main window code that jaws uses to obtain a title bar status fires 
early sometimes. It doesn't update its status either after it says unavailable. 
If you are looking for something other than available by the application name, 
jaws key + T might be of some help.

  In my experience it means it’s crashed or is so busy that it just doesn’t 
respond to commands. Sometimes if you just leave a programme for a few minutes 
it finishes and becomes available again, other times not. If it’s a zip 
programme is it doing it whilst it is working i.e. unzipping. If so just wait 
for it to finish.

  A friend has 7zip installed on a computer. It works to zip and unzip files 
when accessed through the Applications key. But when we try to access it 
through the start menu and programs, JAWS says: 7zip submenu unavailable.

  The program isn't already open at the time. I know this can cause JAWS to say 
a program is unavailable.

  Does anyone here know what else can cause this behavior with JAWS, and how to 
correct it?

  Thank you.
