[blindlaw] Updating Windows and iManage/FileSite

Wed Jan 24 15:31:02 UTC 2018

Nandini,

I encourage you to talk with the VVT folks.  Firm IT is usually pretty
unaware of the full scripting capacity of JAWS and Freedom Scientific won't
provide that kind of invasive customized support.  I've seen these guys
build things to make JAWS work that other folks have said could not be done.
Almost any program can be made to work with JAWS.  It's just a factor of
time/money.

At my firm, we are on Windows 10 with Office 2010. iManage is super
difficult to use with JAWS. I know this is and continues to be an issue too
complicated for firm IT or Freedom Scientific to handle adequately. For now,
I do not use iManage or else should a partner prefer it, request my
assistant to save and retrieve documents.

The problems for iManage are very significant.  We can't get JAWS to read
the windows, so I can't find anything in iManage.  The short term work
around is for me to keep my Windows 7 and Office 2010 computer.  But that
can't last long as everyone else is on the new set-up.

Hi Randy,

I use Windows 7 and Office 2010 currently, what I think you said your firm
used previously. So, I'm afraid I'm unlikely to be of any help to you. I
remain very anxious to hear of any solution you may come up with. Should I
come up with a solution, I will let you know also.

Do you mind my asking how significant the problems are for you?

Would you go back to Windows 7 and Office 2010 if you could?

Kind regards

Ger
