Re: Spectrum cable network
heather albright
This number is for those who use the accessible boxes and there the ones to call if you need to trouble shoot and they are not supposed to freak out when you tell them you are using a screen reader. But, I find that that is not always the case. If there is something you cant figure out, they are not supposed to charge if you have to have someone come out to look at the equipment. Otherwise, they charge you if the tec has to come out. Cheers Heather

Re: Welcome (back) iPhone SE?
Carolyn Arnold
I'm so excited for you, Shelly. I couldn't hold off, because I use my phone that my SE's battery was needing charging twice a day. What a difference with my 11, especially since I removed a lot of the apps refreshing in the background. I use my phone all day for one thing or another, so need good battery, one reason I never kept a flip phone long.

Re: Stopping Chrome Download Alerts
Lisa Belville
Hi, Joe.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Unfortunately, this is a Chrome issue and not a screen reader issue. Chrome does the same thing with NVDA and there doesn't seem to be any way of turning it off other then using another browser while a download is in progress or moving focus away from any Chrome windows you have open until the download has completed. If this has changed and there is indeed a way to modify this setting I would appreciate knowing about it because the excess verbosity is annoying. Lisa Belville missktlab1217@frontier.com

Stopping Chrome Download Alerts
Joe Orozco
Hi, to JAWS users using Chrome, have you found a way to stop JAWS from
regularly announcing download status? The verbal alert interrupts across all applications, even if I do not have Chrome up as my active window. It’s rather annoying. Thank you in advance for any fix suggestions. Joe

Subject: [TechTalk] What to do when your computer goes
silent Hi List, I am using a Windows 10 desktop computer using Jaws 2020 and Leasey 5.13.
Sometimes it goes silent.
I was wondering what steps you would try in such a situation.
Is there a keyboard command for Task Manager? If the computer is still silent, what would you do after issuing that command?
Would you try pressing Alt F4 and then Alt Tab and another Alt F4 until you think that you have shutdown all open windows?

I then hold my breath, say a little Prayer, and press and hold the Button that turns my computer on, and I keep it pressed until the computer is totally silent. I then wait about 10 seconds, and press the On switch again, and let it Boot up Normally. I suffer this problem most often while in Thunderbird. How about you? I have attempted to start NVDA and even Narrator, but on my System, when it goes Silent, it remains quiet. I have a friend who also uses Win 10, and he has the newest JAWS, and he too suffers the Silent Treatment. But, his System will let him start Narrator. Once it is started, he can then move around an shut everything down normally. Grumpy Dave -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com
