laptop mode. insert j, options then basics and alt l to layout
and make sure it has the layout you need to work correctly<br>

<div>Hi April, are you using a desktop or a laptop?
If you’re using a laptop, sometimes there is a key
called the f n key that you have to hold down to
make key comonations work, like alt f4 for instance,
alt f4 is usually used to close programs, and let’s
say you’re in a browser, since some times web pages
open in windows from inside the browser windo, you
would use control f4 to close the window. Now, some
times it can get tricky when new web pages open, if
you don’t pay attention, and you do alt f4 you’ll
close the browser out altogether, internet explorer
will warn </div>
<div>
<div>
<div> you of this but I don’t know if fire fox
does. Also, if you use alt tab and alt shift
tab, you can cycle through all the different
programs/windows you have open. Alt tab will
move you forward through everything, and alt
shift tab will move you backwards. Did you know
about these combonations? Just remember, it’s
very important, that you hold the alt key down
firmly when you try to do these combonations,
otherwise they will not work. Let me know if
you have anymore questions. </div>

computer with just a Keyboard</div>
</div>

<div>
<div>
<p><span>Following advice, I've tried to learn to
use a computer with just a keyboard. I don't
get it. I can't open or close anything. </span></p>
<p><span> </span> </p>
<p><span>With the trial JAWs program, I tried to
use both Firefox and Safari with just the
keyboard. I had the 11 page keyboard guide
open. And none of the commands worked on
either browser. They worked in Word and PDF.<i>
</i></span></p>
<p><span> </span> </p>
<p><span>I have no idea what "key" I am missing.
I am sure it is some silly something that I'm
supposed to toggle on or off to do it, and
everyone else in the world knows how without
being told. </span></p>
<p><span> </span> </p>
<p><span>So far, the biggest problem I can see
with JAWs, other than not being able to
configure it for the browsers, is the volume.
With my massive hearing loss as well, and the
volume at 100%, it sounds like a whisper. Is
it worth my time to learn this program, if I
can't hear the speakers? My hearing and
comprehension is rapidly decreasing. I'm
going to ask on the deaf blind group what they
use. </span></p>
