couple of days ago, she said she needed to replace her 7. I told her it had a Home Button, so she could still use fingerprint, although facial ID has been no problem to me. Still, if you don't have to change, why do it?

Hey Fred,
We use the echo cups. And you don’t need a filter for those. You shouldn’t need a filter for yours either if it looks like it’s made out of the screen type material. If you’d like to call us at some point and we can just babble about this our phone number is, 314-802-8298.

Re: What to do when your computer goes silent
Dave
I suffer the same sudden loss of Speech when using last years version of
Jaws 2019. I do use the Alt-F4 keys to shut down, or I hope I am shutting things down. 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

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?
Would you try the Leasey command of Tilda followed by either Alt Shift r for Restart or Tilda Alt Shift s for shutdown?
I’m afraid I’ve done so many shutdowns and restarts that I think that I may have caused damage to my computer.
I am hoping some safe successful solutions may be suggested.
Any such will be gratefully received and acted upon!

Hi. Thank you, that is very helpful. One feature Jaws has is to echo character or words or character & words or none. It is a toggle and that command is insert +#2, that's #2 on the number row. When set to none there is no keyboard echo as you type. When set to character then you of course get the Character echo as you type. When set to word you get no character echo until you press space after your word then the word you have just typed is repeated. When set to character & word you get the keyboard echo for the character and when you press space you also get the word you have just typed. I have mine set to character only. I don't know if NVDA has an equivalent but for me it doesn't really matter as I'm happy with character echo only. Walter. From: main@TechTalk.groups.io [mailto:main@TechTalk.groups.io] On Behalf Of Quentin Christensen
Hi Walter,
5NVDA doesn't have a command to read by word - purely because Windows already provides that functionality. Press CONTROL+LEFT ARROW to go back one word and CONTROL+RIGHT ARROW to go forward one word. Does Jaws have other commands for navigating through text like that? I can update our guide to switching from Jaws to NVDA to ensure that is covered. For what it's worth, these are all standard Windows commands:
LEFT / RIGHT ARROW - move back or forward by one character UP / DOWN ARROW - move up or down by one line HOME - move to the start of the current line END - move to the end of the current line CONTROL+LEFT ARROW / CONTROL+RIGHT ARROW - move back or forward by one word CONTROL+UP ARROW / CONTROL+DOWN ARROW - Move up or down by paragraph (that doesn't work everywhere, and note that many programs treat any time you press ENTER as a paragraph). PAGE UP / PAGE DOWN - move up or down by one screen worth of information CONTROL+PAGE UP / CONTROL+PAGE DOWN move up or down by one page (in programs like Word which define a page) CONTROL+HOME - move to the top or start of a document CONTROL+END - move to the bottom or end of a document
The handy thing is you can hold SHIFT while pressing any of those and it will select text as well while it moves.
Regards
Quentin.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard buying help?
Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc.
Josh, there are a trilion types of the kind of bluetooth keyboard you're
looking for. It does appear that the most common one, amongst the blind at least in Androidville is the iClever BK03. Read more about it on amazon.com/ Oh, it is a trifold keyboard and can be used for iOS or Windows as well. It DOES NOT require the typing in of a paring code, yikes, I hate those! Function KeyC puts the keyboard in paring mode; then launch your bluetooth app on your toy and have it scan for the keyboard. Once found, just <tap> on the pare button on your toy and the deed is done. You do have to switch from one toy to the next if you pare it with more than one. Example, to switch to Android, it's FunctionQ, Windows, if memory serves, is FunctionW, etc. Good luck and all the best! Sincerely, Olusegun Denver, Colorado

Trying to batch delete overwhelming number of duplicate Google calendar events
Cristóbal
Hello list, So, I have this problem with my Google Calendar. For some reason and I don’t know how, I’ve got a couple of recurring events that have duplicated themselves to the point where simply going in and deleting one by one isn’t feasible. One recurring event has roughly 1600 occurrences and the other over 1700. These are monthly, so you can imagine the frustration having to navigate past this amount of duplicate appointments every month. It’s also to the point where the sheer size of my calendar is crashing the calendar app on my iPhone and it makes the webpage on the PC load super slow. Poking around online, there doesn’t seem to be a way to batch delete an entire day of events or so many recurring ones. It’s suggested to export the calendar and import it into a separate calendar service like Outlook or Yahoo and clean it up there. I can import into Outlook 2016 fine, but my question is since I haven’t tried this before and haven’t found right away how to do it is how can I go about deleting such a large number of events in the Outlook calendar with Jaws? If anyone knows how to batch delete recurring events in Outlook or knows how to do it in Google calendar directly, I’d appreciate the heads up. Thanks, Cristóbal

transferring playlist items from Apple Music to YouTube or Google play music
Beth
Hi all, this is Beth here. I prepared a playlist, about five hours of music on Apple Music, but there was a problem with playing it on a certain Amazon skill, which skips a bunch of songs and only plays twenty songs at a time. That would be the apple music skill. I’m curious as to how I could quickly and accessibly transfer all that apple music stuff to YouTube music or google play music, which I’m subscribed to both. I don’t think manually transferring and translating the songs should happen, there are over fifty songs inn my select playlist. So that would be tedious and hours of work. So what are you all’s ideas? I would want to be able to transfer the apple music playlist to youtube music or google so we can easily play it on a home speaker, and no we won’t be purchasing a not so impressive home pod. We already have google and amazon speakers, and we’re considering other options should this not work.
Thanks all in advance for your ideas. Beth Sent from my iPhone with iOS 13

Re: Its worth noting, however, that there are screen r4eview commands for reading the current line, word, and character.Re: [TechTalk] NVDA, read current line and read all

Again, JAWS doesn’t use the numpad when using the application cursor, in
other words when not using the JAWS cursor or the Touch Cursor. The numpad
does what it would do if JAWS is used or if no screen-reader is used.
Numpad 8 does the same thing as the nain keyboard up arrow. Numpad 2 does
the same thing as the main keyboard down arrow. And that is true, as I
said in mhy last message, unless another program you are using and in the window
of uses the numpad for other purposes.

JAWS, the Say All command works with either down arrow. Read a line does too.
