i happen to disagree with the statement that realplayer is not jaws
friendly. in fact the most recent update has actually added more
screenreader accessibility. Either way, install the iPod software, and
itunes. then, reformat your ipod and then go to
http://www.redchairsoftware.com, and download a trial version of Anapod
Explorer. you will ultimaely have to pay $20 for this program but it is
well worth it. the thing is though that you must have itunes installed on
your system, because aparently the software looks for a component that
iTunes has, even though you won't use it. Be sure to go into the itunes
options and make sure that it doesn't launch when you connect your ipod
shuffle.
This may seem like a lot to do, but this will most likely do the trick.
I would not uninstall real player from your system. Here is why. Yes it may not be that accessible, but you may need that player if you get a file that will only play in real player. I believe the Ipod will only play mp3 files. since real player files aren't mp3, the Ipod of any kind will not play it until it is an mp3 file.

Did you install the I tunes software?
I would blow real player off your machine because it is not jaws friendly at all.

Hi, I am using Jaws 6, XP Home, Real Player 10 Basic, and have an iPod Shuffle.
I purchased a song from the Real Player Music Store, and wanted to transfer it to the iPod Shuffle.
The track, of course, is a .rax file.
I answered yes to letting Real Player be the default iPod Shuffle manager, when I first got an error message that it could not be transferred because it was an unsupported media type.
That's when I let it be the default manager, but got the same result.
I have been tabbing a lot, and trying to use the Jaws cursor to find everything on the screen, but am obviously missing something.
Banging my head on the wall in frustration.
If someone can point me in the right direction it would surely be appreciated.
Contact me off list, if you prefer.
Thank you. Crystal raincrow@xxxxxxx
