Thank you ever so much, Dave! I thought I could get away with not having those guys send me e-mails, but as soon as I checked that box along with the other “I agree” ones, you are right. It worked, and now I’m downloading the software. Hopefully there will be a way to opt out of their e-mails if it gets to be too much. <grin> Thanks again for the help, Pete in Portland, OR BTW On Apr 9, 2021, at 8:41 AM, Dave Carlson <dgcarlson0...@gmail.com <mailto:dgcarlson0...@gmail.com> > wrote: Pete, the problem I had was similar. However I needed to make sure that every field and combo box was correctly filled in — no blanks allowed. Also both those checkboxes. It finally worked.

That’s not the problem. The problem is how do I get the page to accept what I type? I could not find any button or link, and pressing RETURN didn’t work either.

Just four letters/numbers, and pretty darn clear. Why not give it a try before casting aspersions?

I don’t have a VMWare account, so I needed to register, too. All went fine until I got to the part where I needed to fill in the captcha. It even had an option to speak what I needed to type, but I could not for the life of me find any place to click verify I’m not a robot. This is sad on their part, if you ask me, unless I’m missing something somewhere. I actually tried registering both on Safari with VoiceOver and then went to my Windows PC to see if I might have better luck with JAWS and MS Edge, but nope, no go there either.

Hi folks. Was wondering if anyone new of a free option for a VM, or should i just use Fusion? Also I was curious about something call CrossOver. It says it will let you run windows apps without using a vm? but I wasn’t sure if that would actually work with VO. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
