Hi. You can download books from Amazon's web site directly, just buy the book and have it sent to your Kindle software of choice. Give it a minute or two and open the software, the book should download automatically. I hope this is of use. Aman

I keep hoping that accessibility is fixed whenever Calibre updates, but nope. Worse, I can't expain to the developers what exactly the problem is other than a vague, "Turn on VoiceOver and shut your eyes.

I can't even get the app to be registered on the Mac, let alone figure how to download books. They made their app as inaccessible as possible. What is it going to take? A lawsuit to force them to include full, not partial, accessibility and unlimited reading of books with text-to-speech? If they'd do that, and fix accessibility ont he idevices, too, we wouldn't need this work-around that only partially works. >>>> >>>> That said, if you can tell me how to register the app and navigate with only VoiceOver, it would be cool to try. >>>> >>>> Jane >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> Jane >>>> >>>> >>>> On Jun 15, 2012, at 4:31 PM, Austin Seraphin wrote: >>>> >>>>> I just saw this on Cult of Mac.
