Dave,
 
My message posted 48 hours after I sent it, as did a second I wrote on
Saturday. I wasn't trying to resurrect our earlier discussion. 
 
Whatever FS's intent, I'd want my preferred voice to be invoked with the
simpler command, which is surely insert-2. In my case, it is. But if FS had
switched things around, I'd make my preferred voice the non-default just so
that I could bring it up with that keystroke.
 
The good news is that FS has made it easy to invoke two profiles via simple
variants of the say all command. for those who like to use SAPI-5 voices to
read long documents, it must be very convenient.

Adrian,
 
Well, Then something is different on my setup, and I sure don't know where
it crept in. You wrote: For most people, I'm guessing Eloquence is invoked
without alt, while a SAPI-5 voice starts up with alt. 
 
For me, it's exactly the opposite. 
Insert+NumPad 2 gives me the Say All voice that I have set in the Default
Configuration Say All Voice Aliases, which is SAPI 5.
Alt+Insert+NumPad 2 gives me my default voice, which is Eloquence.

Dave, 
 
I'm using the latest release of JAWS 11, and the JAWS key-2 method performs
say all just as before. Adding alt to this combination invokes so-called
alternative say all, which kicks in your alternative synthesizer. 
 
For most people, I'm guessing Eloquence is invoked without alt, while a
SAPI-5 voice starts up with alt. In my case, JAWS key-2 brings up Dectalk
Express, which is my choice of synth, and adding alt replaces it with
Eloquence.

Bonnie,
 
Seems to me that FS changed the default Say all keystroke in JAWS 11 or 10.
Have you checked to make sure you're using the right combination? I use
Alt+Insert+NumPadDownArrow.

I use Outlook with Windows 7 and the latest JFW, with little problem. You
might describe your problem a little more. My only problem now with Outlook
2010 is that the "say all" does not work, and I either have to arrow down
through the message, or select it and then hit contl shift downarrow (I
think that's it) to read an entire message.

I am using jaws 11, windows 7, and trying to use outlook.

 

whenever I try to read a message, it simply puts the who and who from info
on ,my screen. How can I get outlook to read, or what other programs do you
recommend for email?

 

your help would be most appreciated.

Subject: Nero BackItUp and Jaws 10

 

Has anyone worked successfully with this program?

  I just got a new backup drive that came with BackItUp 4 Essentials, but it
seems very visual.  I thought that because the Nero Burning software is
accessible, this would be also.
