Re: Unable to update the latest version of NVDA next!

#41858

Hi,

This is really weird!

but it has been happening since yesterday, whenever I try to update NVDA.

The installation seems to start, because it plays the music at first, but it does not do anything or hear any sign of error.

I would like to be given some suggestions to solve the problem!

Greetings.

PDF file missing spaces

Quentin Christensen

#41857

Hi everyone,

I know I've come across this before but I just can't recall the solution. I've got a PDF file which when I read it, parts of it read with no spaces between words (ditto copying the text out or saving to a text file).

It is something to do with how Adobe Reader interprets the spaces in files created with certain other products, but what I can't remember, is how do I fix it, please?

Regards

Quentin.

Take the machine back to when you saw them last? However I'm not optimistic. I seem to remember this sort of thing happening in older Outlooks back when I tried to use it.
Its normally some corruption in the indexing in Outlook. Maybe there is an answer on the Microsoft Office forum?

Hi Group,

Is there any add on or perhaps some sort of technique for using the main interface or in particular, the registration panel in the Avast Free Anti Virus program?

I used to be able to enter the registration information every year for the free upgrade, but something may have changed either in NVDA or Avast to make this impossible for me this year.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Although I would not say what I wrote was in any way techy, I do think that the person who posted about this could have phrased it less combatively, and perhaps you should not have risen to the bait as much on here. Communicating in text is not that easy as the intonation of a voice is not really conveyed.
I tend to agree with you, but I have encountered people who find it hard to understand what we might consider simple instructions due to not knowing the lingo, so to speak. Your advice, though sound, can be seen as a problem to many people I have tried to teach things to. We are not all the same and words that convey sense to one person  are just not in the vocabulary of somebody else especially if that person is dealing with   English if that is not their native language.

I was taught if you cannot follow instructions and you cannot keep up I'm not stoping and you will fall behind. If you cannot keep up drop the class. If you cannot learn how to follow instructions other than what a simpleton does then you should go back to computer school where you learn to  cut copy and paste until you can even navigate the file explorer and use the command prompt by yourself, at least the basic stuff like cd and sudo and stuff. I'm not advanced either but I can follow techy and geeky instructions, allowly but I can do it.

Latest nexts, problem when changing synthesizer

Michel Such

#41851

Hi,

1. Open the speech settings from the Settings dialog.

2.Try to change synthesizer (let's say from Espeak to Onecore, to take examples which very different settings list).

3. Press the OK button. An error sound is heard and the speech dialog is not refresh to reflect settings of the new selected synth, though the active synth is actually changed.

I run next version 15296,e74c62b3

Sure, but if one is going to write a company to complain about their
use of quote captures unquote on their web site, they're either going
to think you're nuts or won't know what you're talking about. It's a
good idea to call something what it is or one won't get very far. It's
like going to a deli and asking for a cam shaft sandwich when one
should have said Corned Beef Hash instead. the two phrases are
different things just as capture and captcha are two totally different
things.

As for excepting a folder I just follow the promots, no captcha for me. I just accepted a folder earlier this month for a course I'm working on.

Subject: [nvda] Dropbox innaccessibility again

I wanted to share a folder today, but it seems on the current version this
dialogue no longer works with nvda either. it just is a blank page saying
its the shaere with another user item, but just like the preferences and the
delete from all machines and devices one its totally empty of any controls
that read at all.

Anyone care to comment?
If its also happening in windows 10 maybe we can write en masse to Dropbox
to get them to correct this.

messages disappearing from my folders in outlook

Hi, everyone,

I don't know what happened to some of my messages that I had from other lists that I'm on. They just suddenly disappeared. I know I didn't delete them. I tried looking in the junk folder but they're not there. Is there something else I can do?

Thanks for your help in advance.

NVDA And Avast Free Anti Virus

#41844

Hi Group,

Is there any add on or perhaps some sort of technique for using the main interface or in particular, the registration panel in the Avast Free Anti Virus program?

I used to be able to enter the registration information every year for the free upgrade, but something may have changed either in NVDA or Avast to make this impossible for me this year.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have had good success with open office. It has a standard menu system, instead of ribbons, which I personally like.

Hi, I'm back.
Well, first of all I need to know some things, such as which browser are you using when you tried to save the pic.
But assuming you're using Firefox, that's what I use...
Before downloading the pic you must choose to see it in a full size. You'll be able to find it tabing in the page that opens with the comments and reactions about theï¿½ post.
So, after you're in full size pic screen, you should be able to save it as a pic on itself.

the shortcut combination and to my surprise it worked!

Hi

If it is just asigning the shortcut after you have gone into the
properties tab down to shortcut and asign one.

I think you can only use alt + ctrl + a letter like J for jaws or
another letter.

Make sure you save the settings.

You can check if there are any other accounts by pressing Windows+i

Hi Nevzat
I would have thought you should be able to assign shortcuts as
these
are
personal to your account and don't affect other users, so should
not
require
admin priviledges. If you are using a work computer it maybe that
a
corporate group policy is in effect which denies the capability but
this
would be unlikely.

As Brian asked, is your user account standard or administrator?
Could
you
give us more information, such as operating system being used, work
or
home
computer, is yours the only account on the computer etc.

The process I would use to assign a shortcut key is:
Select desktop icon
Press alt+enter to open properties
Tab to the shortcut key control and press the shortcut letter
alone,
the
CTRL+Alt part of the command is added automatically by Windows
Tab to OK and press enter.

If you get an error after pressing OK, please give full details
