Hi Tone, haven't heard from you for a while. Yes downgrading is fine I am sure but depending on the versions of Jaws both ladies have, I understand that there are in fact scripts for Jaws for Skype 4.0. Indeed I think there was a gentleman asking about Skype recently too.Eleanor----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Sweeney" <deirton711@xxxxxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, June 08, 2009 11:33 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Skype QueryHi Eleanor! Thanks for the vote of confidence! Now Noreen has more or less resolved her issue re Skype!Both She and Joan Ann are indeed experienced so I really can't advise further!Now except to say that it is probabbly not a big issue to uninstall Skype 4 that was mentioned, reverting to reinstalling previous Skype version!Well should you want my penny's worth, then I have found on occasion that when you say upgrade you may not be able to revert back as some programmes may not allow that!I also think that it should be borne in mind that when sometimes you upgrade that there may not be the scripts of Jaws for example to go with your upgrade!Just because it is "shining new" don't expect if you upgrade to it that the garden then will always be rosy!Anyone any further thoughts on what I say or contradictory ones on this would be glad to hear from you!Okay Eleanor? Keep on truckin!

I would like to use Skype but have not the time for it unfortunately. Thought Tony might have some suggestions. Had a feeling he used Skype. Sorry Tony for mentioning your name on this one.Eleanor----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Dromey" <pdromey@xxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, June 08, 2009 8:56 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Skype QueryHi Eleanor.Thanks for that, very interesting. I am not a member of that list and, tobe honest, would rather not join any more lists as my in box is alreadypretty cluttered, despite using message rules to great effect. However, if anyone out there is on the list to which you refer, perhaps they would haveopinions or advice about Skype 4.0 and the jaws scriptsI followed the configuration instructions as much as I could, but as was pointed out in the instructions, some versions of Skype 4.0 do not have all the necessary menu options, including mine. Don't quite understand why thisshould be so but there it is.In the absence of good advice from someone out there, I suspect I'll alsorevert to Skype 3.8.

You can configure it. Have you thought of asking on the access-uk list/ Ofcourse yhou would have to join. It does not have juristictioin restrictions.

Now I have read on Skypesite that 4.0 is not yet accessible for blind or visually impairedusers and we should continue to use 3.8. Do I have to uninstall Skype4.0 and then install 3.8 or is there any other way?Thanks,Noreen M._____I am using the Free version of SPAMfighter<http://www.spamfighter.com/len> .
