Text to speech for incoming call announcement on Cisco VoIP Phone CP8841
by Chris Nestrud 11 Dec '18

11 Dec '18

I'm using a Cisco VoIP phone model CP8841. We've enabled the TTS functionality, and it's working well other than that when I receive a call from an outside unknown caller, the phone announces "unknown caller" and does not provide the caller's number. Has anyone encountered this and perhaps found a workaround? Chris

I have encountered few crashes with JAWS 2019 and latest office 365 desktop version of outlook, but I wouldn't really experience sluggishness. Same thing with Word, just crashes for no apparent reason, sometimes when spellchecking. It happens at work and home. -----Original Message----- From: Troy Hergert <thergert(a)vision-forward.org> Sent: Thursday, December 6, 2018 11:59 AM To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] JAWS and Outlook very sluggish Hi, Is anyone else encountering sluggishness with jaws when using office 365 Outlook 2016 desktop version?

Greetings I am using Outlook in two situations. First when connected to Exchange, I noticed that JFW will stop talking from time to time. I suspect this is due to our WAN connection speeds being variable at best. Second, I am using Outlook to connect to email services using IMAP. For a while it was sluggish and JFW also stopped talking every now and then. In both scenarios JFW did begin talking again. As for the latter, the ISP tech came and found issues with the service. After correcting the cabling issues, attaching a booster and replacing the MODEM with a more up-to-date version performance improved tremendously and JFW rarely stops speaking and Outlook using IMAP seem rather robust.
