Oh, I guess I read it too fast, so glad of the clarification and I will take
your advice on this one. Thanks,
Marie

Actually Marie, I was referring not to the QuickStart tutorial, but to the
getting started guide. That’s a much more in-depth tutorial it’s an actual book
of chapters devoted to various functions of voiceover. It’s the bottom most
entry in the help system just below the QuickStart tutorial. It also has
appendices for various keystrokes and functions etc. Good luck.

Hi Marie,
I find David Woodbridge audio tutorials extremely good. I have immensely
benefited from them.
Warmly,

Marie, don’t forget to plow through the getting started guide. You can find
it by pressing the help menu keys VO plus h. The getting started guide is down
at the bottom of the list. You might find some trouble in browsing at first,
but try to bring up the table of contents and you’ll find a wealth of
information about using voiceover on the Mac. Also check out the other items in
the voiceover help menu while you’re at it. I think you’ll find all you need
there along with questions on list you should learn quite quickly.

I listened to the short introductory videos on the Hadley site, as well as
several from David Woodbridge on Applies and some other misc. also from Apple
Vis. Today I am going to sit down with the Air and follow the free podcast from
John, Introduction to Voiceover on the Mac.
I have lots to learn for sure.

Hi Marie and others,
Welcome to the list Marie, what are the podcasts you’ve listened to so far?
I may have herd some of them already but you never no. I’m also a new user,
well I’ve been using a Mac since January but still consider myself a beginner.
I only ever used windows machines and never liked it, loads of people told me
not to get a Mac but I’m glad I did. The folks this list have been a huge help
and I would have been lost without them.

I am another new member, but I am a little more experienced than Marie. I
joined this group because I have a job with my church editing documents. We are
using Pages and I don’t know a whole lot about pages. We are not using the
templates, thank heaven. We are just using it the way one would use text edit
so I don’t have a lot to learn but any fine points would be beneficial. This
looks like a very good group and I know a few of you from other lists
I already know that the Mac is a much better computer than PCs using
windows.

Thanks for the welcomes by you and John. The Mac for the Blind website is
one I have visited and just downloaded the free tutorial from DEC. I also am
familiar with Apple Vis since I have been using the IPhone since 2011 and even
do a bit of teaching in it’s use for newly vision impaired individuals. I
believe I have the mindset to learn the Mac.
Looking forward to the group interaction.

Marie,
You heard from John already. I recommend you visit his web site at
macfortheblind.com and look at his audio tutorials. Many are cost-based, but
there are about a half dozen basic tutorials that are free, and are very well
done. I learned a lot from John’s tutorials, and also from those done by David
Woodbridge on appleviz.com (did I spell that one right?).
I did a lot of listening and struggling in my first 3 or 4 months using
the Mac, but am becoming more comfortable with the Sox approach.
I made it a point to become familiar first with the Mail and Textedit
apps, and then spent a whole lot of time learning how to get around in Finder.
Calendar and Contacts were a bit more difficult to use, and I’m still not
comfortable with Contacts.
Other places you should spend time poking around would be in the
Voiceover Utility and System Preferences.
And of course post your questions to this list. There are some real
experts on board.
