[Trainer-talk] Outlook.com website and screen reading

[Jim Portillo]

Howdy,
Thanks for the answer.  I knew this was a possibility.  I was just trying to
work with what my client had and knew at this time.
My client is a JAWs user, an internet explorer user, and actually has a
computer with Windows Live Mail that is set up to load his Outlook.com
email.  However, there's something wrong with his computer and it is not an
option right now.
So, we'll just try and keep going.
NVDA and Firefox and such are not good options right now due to his current
situation.
Thanks again.
Jim

Good morning,
I realize this may not be the answer you are looking for, however, the email
could be set up to be forwarded or automatically sent to another more
friendly web client. It is not perfect but might be a temporary work around.
Have a wonderful day!

I have actually had very good success using Outlook.com with NVDA and
Firefox!
Hope this helps

I tried it with JAWS a few months ago and could not get JAWS to get to the
messages to open them.  It is a great website for Zoomtext users, but not
for JAWS users.  Unless someone knows some special tricks.  I did a web
search and found nothing about using JAWS with Outlook.com.

Hi there,



Has anyone worked with the Outlook.com website for doing email?

If so, have you encountered problems with it regarding accessibility?



I have a new student who has an outlook.com account.  We've been trying to
use the website.  When we hit the enter key on the link, we get nowhere.
The links also seem to double as check boxes, and we check one and still
nothing happens.

We can see the messages but can't open them to read them.

Are there any particular settings one needs to have?



I've never worked with this site and have not had much time to do so this
week, so any help would be appreciated.

Jim
