Kevin, Here is a message I posted about this a few months ago for someone who had the same problem - she replied to say it had worked: I think this may be a Windows setting that's getting in the way of JAWS. Try opening the Start menu and going into Settings submenu and choosing TaskBar and Start menu. This will open a dialogue; Tab to the "Notification area Hide inactive icons" checkbox and make sure it's not checked. If it is already not checked, then apologies for the wrong steer! The thinking behind this possibility is that while the checkbox is checked, not all the system tray icons are on screen and I think that can prevent JAWS detecting them when you press insert + F11. When you use the Tab method of getting to the system tray, the hidden icons reappear when focus arrives on it, so JAWS can read them without any problem.

Hi all, I find the system tray key stroke insert f 11 only shows 2 things in the system tray weather aloud and Skype it does not even show Jaws!! But if I tab into the system tray I can see about 10 things I know I have to much in their but I would have thought using the key stroke in jfw should have shown the same amount of things what's going on? ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq -- DISCLAIMER: NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be privileged.
