Hi, Here is a email I saved from the Late Tim Kilburn. From: "Tim Kilburn Date: October 17, 2019 at 12:07:41 AM EDT
Hi, Now, actually adding the custom ring-tone to the iPhone is possible with VO, albeit a little challenging as it requires drag and drop. 1. Connect your iPone to your Mac with the USB charging cable. 2. Open the window where the custom ring-tone resides. 3. Press cmd-n to open a second Finder window where you select your iPhone from the Sidebar. 4. Navigate to the window where the custom ring-tone resides. You can use the Window Chooser or cmd-accent to get there. 5. Interact with the table or browser and navigate to the tone. Do not use arrow navigation, but do use VO-navigation. 6. Once you are at the tone, press VO-cmd-f5 to route the mouse to the VO location. You may need to include the fn key as well. 7. Press VO-cmd-shift-space to invoke the mouse-down action. 8. Use the Window Chooser to navigate to the iPhone window. 9. Navigate to the item that announces the name of your iPhone, how much space is used and its charge level. On mine, it's the item that's one VO-right after the edit field with my iPhone name in it. 10. Press VO-cmd-shift-f5 to route the mouse to the VO location. Again, you may need to add the fn key to this combination. 11. Press VO-cmd-shift-space to toggle the mouse-up action. This drops the tone and will immediately copy it to your iPhone. It will show up in the tones section of Sounds & Haptics for your use. > On Nov 2, 2024, at 5:20 PM, Brian Hansen <ozark.bluesma...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi everyone. > > It’s been years since I’ve needed to copy over custom ringtones to my iPhone, > but now I’m having a bit of a problem.
