Re: Office 365 outlook for desktop is out of focus when starting it with JAWS, NVDA or Narrator.

It's in focus when I started it on either of the Windows 10 systems to which I have access. I don't know what the salient difference between your system and mine might be.

Office 365 outlook for desktop is out of focus when starting it with JAWS, NVDA or Narrator. Is that normal behavior? I believe it used to always start in the messages pane. Now I have to alt tab to bring it to focus. Is it acting the same way in standard office 2019 apps as well?

Re: Office 365 2 factor authentication

I don't have administrative access to Office 365, but I did notice that there at least used to be a PowerShell solution: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/office365/powershell-enablee… You may be able to adapt this if you don't want to apply it to all users.

I recall my last experience just a few days ago. I needed to change billing notifications email. First tried Firefox, no luck, then tried Chrome, still wasn't getting anyware. After falling to the last resort of using IE, I was able to find the section and made necessary changes. It's interesting, sometimes the navigation menu does not get read by neither screen reader and the right-side configurations work okay, and sometimes it's vice versa, the navigation menu works good with screen readers and the configuration side glitching. I even had to play the game of turning on and turning off the old/new admin center to get the job done. Well, I probably don't work enough in admin center to find the ultimate combination and that sweet spot. New Edge chromium was still pretty rough when I tried it several month ago.

I have been unable to turn on multi factor authentication for users with my screen reader. I know where the settings are located and I can bring up the users page but there seems to be no way a screen reader can find the controls to a enable or enforce 2 factor authentication. I use jaws with Internet explorer. In the admin center, I go to active users, more settings, multi-factor authentication setup, click the check box for a user. But then there is no way to locate the enable or enforce controls. Has anyone been able to manage this feature in office 365 with a screen reader? Thanks. ### Troy _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org

starting a career in IT
by Mike Fulton 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

Hello, I have been subscribed to this list for quite some time but haven't posted much. My name is Mike, and I graduated with a B.S. degree in IT about a year and a half ago. I have been struggling to get a job in IT to start my career. I am now in the process of studying for my CompTIA A+ certification, and then I'm going to start studying for MCSA. I was fortunate enough to ge able to get these costs covered by my state rehab agency. I have a few questions about starting my career, and am mainly looking for pointers, tips, tricks, etc. Would you agree that I'm getting the correct certs? My goal is to specialise in sysadmin or network admin. What general tips, tricks, and pointers do you have? What screen reader have you found works best to have on a thumb drive for accessing other systems? What other tools and techniques have you found useful? Any help and info you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Mike

Microsoft Teams help
by Andrew Hodgson 07 Jan '20

07 Jan '20

Hi, Moving from Slack to Teams. Am getting on with the interface but wondered if anyone else was using it? I am members of a few different teams and I am struggling to work out what I need to read or not at the start of the day, i.e, unread messages. Also I am not sure exactly what is going on in the left hand pane where I can switch between teams and direct messages. Any idea of the best way of doing this? Thanks. Andrew.

Hi all, For those who where using the remote relay server on nvdaremote.com. The website seems to be offline for a few days now. I guess that also might stay that way.
