Hello, I have just encountered this forum while searching for information on two serious problems I am seeing with VoiceOver on el Capitan. I am very pleased to see that others are seeing a similar version of one of my problems, especially as accessibil...@apple.com <mailto:accessibil...@apple.com> say that they cannot reproduce the problem. I think they are fobbing me off as the problem is so easy to recreate.
I am using the latest versions of all software with Mac OS 10.11.1. I am also trying the public betas for 10.11.2 which are not solving the problem and maybe are even making it worse. In my case I go to any web page using Safari and interact with that page. I find a header or some other text and then do Command+Tab to move to some other application like Mail or TextEdit. VoiceOver then repeatedly speaks some of the Safari text it the cursor was previously on. to stop this I have to restart VoiceOver or turn cursor tracking off with Control+Option+Shift+F3 while in Safari, which is bad as I keep forgetting to turn it back on again, or stop interacting with the Safari html. A sighted friend tells me that the text which VoiceOver keeps repeating is in a box at the bottom of the screen - maybe some sort of thumbnail? The problem does not happen if I use Chrome or Lightning but they have other problems making Safari preferable. This all sounds similar to the Safari and Voiceover problems reported on this forum, so it is gratifying that I am not the only person suffering. Note that I arrived at El Capitan after updating to all releases from Leopard onwards. Doing a clean install of El Capitan looks like a lot of trouble which probably won’t help. So do any of you see the same problem as me? Have any of you found Safari or VoiceOver orSystem options or preferences which alleviate the problem? Many thanks for any tips.
