RE: problems when starting and restarting JAWS

Rick
Presumably you terminate Jaws using Insert f4 and attempt to restart
using alt control j or your own substitute hotkey?  Have you checked the
shortcut on the desktop to ensure that
(A) Alt control j or your own substitute is correctly assigned as the
shortcut key
(B) The path to the required version of Jaws is correctly defined as the
Target.      
 
Cheers

Subject: problems when starting and restarting JAWS


Re: statement when jaws starts ---
 
I say, this has been a jolly good and interesting thread indeed. And
when I have the time, I intend to try it, see if it might just put a
little life into my JAWS startup.
 
Now, I wonder if anyone can say something about this as it relates to
another JAWS startup issue...
 
When in my house we start and stop JAWS, is this a problem?
My wife who is sighted will turn it off, then I turn it back on again,
you see.
I wondered if this creates issues for a pc.
 
On another, older desktop pc we have, the problem is on that one, that
if I ever do close JAWS, it will not restart, not without a reboot.
Can you think of why this might be so? 
 
On all my systems I am up to date with using the latest JAWS version and
updates. And I am using XP Pro for my OS.
 
Thanks in advance for any info and suggestions.
 
Richard

Sir, I maybe missed the follow ups on this topic. Where do you put this
code? In the default.jss?

I had the same error.

here is what I did to fix it.

replace the first line of the script you coppied with the one below.

just change the name from Rob to your name.

Say ("Welcome Rob,", OT_message)

 

it seems that a coma after the quote sign was missing.

HTH

        Good evening list, 

         

        I've been trying to change the message when Jaws starts but am
getting the following error message.  Does anyone know what I may be
doing wrong? 

         

        thanks in advance

                Alice, my instructions are very much the same as what
Bob posted. His were better in point form, but I have posted the
instructions I use below, which I believe I got from the old jfwlite
list. I added the first line as a welcome message but you certainly can
omit this first line. If you do want to have a message you can put
whatever you want in here. Hope this helps and if you want write me off
the list at:

                Announce Jaws version number and Date and Time on Load

                If you have more than one version of Jaws on your
system, sometimes it is easy to get confused what version is loaded.
This script will say the number of Jaws that you are using, plus it will
say the date and time when you first load jaws. 

                Press jaws key+0
                press control+shift+d to get to the default script file,

                Press control L for the script list and arrow down to
AutoStartEvent and enter. You are now in the auto start event script 

                arrow down to the line that says 

                let DefaultFirstTime = 1
                Go to the end of that line and enter and after that line
paste in the following lines.  Of course change the version number to
reflect the version  and build of Jaws you are making the script change
for.

                
                Say ("Welcome Shannon , ")
                Say ("Version 10", OT_message)
                Say ("Loaded on", OT_Message)
                SayUsingVoice (VCTX_PCCursor, SysGetDate (),
OT_No_Disable)
                Say ("at", OT_Message)
                SayUsingVoice (VCTX_PCCursor, SysGetTime (),
OT_No_Disable)

                 

                Then press control S to compile the script and alt f4 to
leave the script manager.
