[nfbcs] Issue With JAWS and Windows 10

[Curtis Chong]

Cathy:

 

Firefox has a way to import Internet Explorer favorites. Here is a link to
an article which tells you how to do it:

Cordially,

Thanks for your response.

 

I did try Google Chrome and had success. The Applications written by ATP

must currently run in IE.

 

Yes, IE crashes pretty regularly. Gets a bit annoying.

 

Question about using FIREFOX: I currently have all kinds of favorites setup

in a dropbox folder that I use a lot. Is there something similar for

FIREFOX? I am guessing it is the book marks. Is there an easy way to get my

favorites into the bookmarks?

Cathy:

 

Out of curiosity, have you compared the pages between two different browsers

(e.g., Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox)? I am moving away from

Internet Explorer on the theory that Microsoft has ceased to make any

improvements in the program. Firefox, on the other hand, is updated

constantly, and with minor tweaks, it seems to work quite well with JAWS.

 

I have also tried (but am not satisfied with) Google Chrome. It has a ways

to go yet before I would recommend it.

 

Regarding JAWS and Internet Explorer, have you run across situations where

Internet Explorer (with JAWS running) will stop working?

 

Cordially,

 

Curtis Chong

I have recently upgraded to Windows 10 and have been having issues with

various web sites not reading properly.

 

 

I am using Jaws 18, latest version, windows 10, and IE11.

 

 

When I go to linkedin JAWS will not read anything but the menu items. Wen I

use JIRA, many times, JAWS will only read the page header. This occurs when

I try to create a JIRA Defect.

 

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

The only suggestion I received from FS was to use Control-TAB or F6, neither

of which worked.
