Do you have Jaws set to run from the system tray? Sometimes after the updates, it takes me awhile to get the Jaws interface out of the way.

In your last post, you wrote:


"Assuming Jaws is still alive, alt tab and alt tab back again. Or hold down
the windows key and pres M as in Minerva."

I have tried these steps, but to no avail.

This is why I think Jaws somehow dies when I close out of another ap.

I don't think it's just a focus issue; otherwise, I think I could get Jaws
back as others have suggested.

Assuming Jaws is still alive, alt tab and alt tab back again. Or hold down
the windows key and pres M as in Minerva.

If on the web, you might F5 to refresh the page or insert escape to refresh
the screen.

As suggested, creating a hot  key for Jaws should work if it is getting
kilt. Having a hot key for two versions would come in handy.

Hi, all.

I have a nagging problem with Jaws 11, that I could use some help with.

On my Dell Lattitude 610 laptop computer, with Windows XP, I often
completely loose Jaws when exiting out of applications like Microsoft Word
and Outlook Express.

I don't understand why this happens, nor do I know how to get Jaws back
once
it's lost, which causes me to have to do a hard shut-down of the computer
when the problem occurs.

Any helpful suggestions here would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Tom Behler
