Hi, I had no problems setting up my mac mini, even without a monitor connected. What probably happened with your laptop was, the function keys were set for hardware functions instead of software. In that case, command function f5 will start voice over. The mac mini defaults to software function keys, so just pressing command f5 should do the trick. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marie Howarth" <marie.jane2...@gmail.com> To: <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> Sent: Monday, July 27, 2009 6:02 PM Subject: mac mini without monitor and set up
