Dear John,
I cannot be sure but your problems may be connected with the BBC's
introduction of a new version of the I player which has received a very
mixed reception even among its sighted users.
My only suggestion is a bit of a cop out if you want to do everything in the
way a sighted person would but it works for me - try downloading Webbie,
advertised as "the web browser for the blind" at
www.webbie.org.uk
I should add that I use it almost exclusively for the excellent and easy
access it gives to the BBC, still using Internet Explorer for most of my
other browsing.
Best wishes
Robert

Oggetto: [jaws-uk] BBC iPlayer problem
The BBC iPlayer no longer works on my computer. It was fine the last time I
was loged in, a couple of days ago. I assume from the lack of messages on
this subject that it's my computer that's up the spout rather than the
iPlayer. The "Flash movie", which used to appear when I opened iPlayer, no
longer does.
When I was last logged in Adobe Flash Player asked if I wanted an update, I
replied "Yes" as I always do, have never had trouble before. I updated
while iPlayer was already in operation, but can't imagine that this would
cause problems.
I do have a friendly neighbourhood techie I can yell "Help!" to, but if
anyone has any ideas in the meantime, I'd be grateful.
TIA, John.
