I knew about these settings, but figured that your other options in configuration manager were working with the applications in which the dictionary wasn't working, so I didn't mention it. For example, I have Outlook Express set with a voice profile which speaks slower than other applications. If O.E. were unchecked in the "manage applications settings, it wouldn't load the voice profile for O.E. So I would immediately know that the O.E. application wasn't being recognized as having files which should be loaded at startup.

Brian and Bill!got it! In the Manage Applications dialog (JAWS/Options/Manage Applications) I found that Outlook Express and a few other applications were unchecked. Iknow I didn't uncheck these, and they are all checked in JAWS 9.0. So for some mysterious reason they had been excluded when I installed and merged JAWS 11. After I made sure they were all checked, they work just fine.I hope no one else suffers from this, but now this is one answer, at least.Dave checked----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill White" <billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 9:36 PM Subject: Re: Pronounciation Dictionaries in JAWS 11 Have you checked in your configuration manager under "set options" then under text processing to make sure your dictionaries are turned on for the specific applications?

In older versions of JAWS I was able to have separate JAWS pronunciation dictionaries for various applications, which would be enabled with that application. For example in Outlook Express a specific file Outlook Express.JDF would be loaded, and any specific pronunciations would be active. With JAWS 11 however, none of the application-specific dictionary files are active. the only one that works is the DEFAULT.JDF file. I can open an application-specific JDF file in the dictionary manager, edit it and save it, but it does not get used. Just the default. Yes, I did run the merge utility, and yes, the files are in my user settings folder. Is this something that was broken, or purposely changed in JAWS 11? I can reload JAWS 9 and the dictionaries work fine. Load up JAWS 11 again and they stop working.
