Re: when on a web page nvda doesn't select a link
Dejan Ristic
I sometimes happen to encounter it, so I would usually repeat an
action so that it does not fail for the second time. If it is not
working for you, I activate the focus mode, then I tab to the
desired link, and then I press enter, so that I activate the link.
If it is to no avail, I play with different browsers. I also make
sure whether a web page is maximized, so that NVDA is successful
in communicating with it.

Re: NVDA doesn't always see buttons on a web page
Ron Canazzi
Hi Group,
Another technique that works on a few pages where NVDA does not see or does not activate buttons is to move to just before where the button is located and then to switch to edit mode with insert + space bar. ten use the tab key to move to the button or sometimes it will say clickable item. Then press space bar or enter and sometimes a player or link will be activated. I see this with the Tunein website for premium content.

Re: Firefox memory loss syndrome
Pascal Lambert
Hi Brian,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
I am encountering the same thing. Also, NVDA says "item not found" when the PC reaches the desktop and I have to hit "m-window-key" to restore the desktop. I am also losing the voice for while when I move the cursors faster to skim through the page or the file explorer for that matter. I don't know if it is NVDA or Win10 problem. The fact of the matter is NVDA and Win10 combo is not as stable as it used to be with Windows 7. Your thoughts please. On another topic, I have a laptop for which I cannot remember the password and I failed to make a rescue disk. Any help is greatly appreciated. It is an Acer laptop with Win10. Blessings. Pascal

Re: NVDA doesn't always see buttons on a web page
Rosemarie Chavarria
The insert key is the numpad zero. If your caps lock is on, the insert key
becomes zero on the numpad. That’s part of the keys on the number pad. That’s
what’s meant by the numpad keys.
Hope this helps.

Re: NVDA doesn't always see buttons on a web page
Quentin Christensen
Gene means the keys on the number pad. In fact, when referring to "numpad insert", commands should work with whichever key you have set as the NVDA modifier key (numpad insert is the 0 on the number pad and "extended insert", is the key in the group "insert", "delete", home", "end", "page up", "page down" on a full sized keyboard). Note also the command for switching to the previous review mode - NVDA+numpad 1, is the desktop layout command. If you are using laptop keyboard layout, then it's NVDA+page down. The command for clicking the left mouse button, is numpad Divide in desktop layout and NVDA+[ in laptop layout. Kind regards Quentin.

Windows 10 App Essentials add-on 17.02 released
Hi all,
I’m delighted to announce the immediate release of Windows 10 app Essentials 17.02. Note that this release requires NVDA 2016.4 or later.
Release page: https://github.com/josephsl/wintenApps/releases/tag/17.02
Changelog: • Added ability to check for add-on updates (automatic or manual) via the new Windows 10 App Essentials dialog found in NVDA Preferences menu. By default, stable and development versions will check for new updates automatically on a weekly or daily basis, respectively. • Support for Windows Defender Security Center in build 15007 or later. Windows Defender in build 14986 is also supported. • NVDA can announce suggestion count when performing a search in majority of cases. This option is controlled by "Report object position information" in Object presentation dialog. • Mail: When reviewing items in messages list, you can now use table navigation commands to review message headers. • Skype Preview: NVDA will no longer announce "Skype Message" when reviewing messages for majority of cases. • Store: When downloading content such as apps and movies, NVDA will announce product name and download progress.
Enjoy. Cheers, Joseph

Re: Problems with Firefox

I forgot to point out that using a different
browser on the site might work around the problem as well. Internet
Explorer or Chrome might render the text correctly when you review it and you
may want to write directly in the edit field using a different
browser.

Re: Problems with Firefox
Gene
Have you determined whether this is an NVDA problem
or something else? it is valuable to have another screen-reader such as a
JAWS demo to test with. At times, on rare web pages, I see something that
is incorrectly rendered with one screen-reader that is correctly rendered with
another.
Until or unless the problem is solved, the easiest thing
to do might be to write whatever you want to write in Notepad, then copy it to
the clipboard once you are satisfied with it, then paste it into the edit field
on the site you are working with. If you want to have it read once it is
in the edit field, use read to end since there is only one word on a line.
I said notepad because a word processor shouldn't be
used. A text editor like Notepad puts no formatting in the text.
That means that when you paste it into the edit field of the web site, the site
can format it however it wishes. Gene
