Hello. You usually can open the VoiceOver utility by hitting control
+option+f8. You may have to add the FN key, so in that case it would
be fn+control+option+f8. You can also change some speach settings on
the fly by holding down the control+option+command with the arrows.

Hi all,
I've been looking at the new Magic Mouse. It seems like this can't be used with

I use groups mode all the time. However, I do use dom mode for links
that expand into text rather than taking me to another web page.
That's just my personal preference though. :)

Hi,
Yes, it will. Installing from scratch just avoids any weirdness that
may or may not happen, but it probably won't happen. I'm just cautious
about that myself. You can, however, save the e-mails to a separate

Hello. All I did to install Snow Leopard is:
1. With Leopard running, put the Snow Leopard DVD in.
2. Run the application on the DVD that was called Install Mac OS 10

Hi May,
In case you haven't installed yet, I would recommend personally not to
upgrade it. It's the easiest way if you do prefer to keep all your
settings and so-forth, but if you reformat by using Disk Utility from

Hi,
I feel that i'm only using groups mode because it's so much faster for

Hey Dan et al,
The most recent version of Logic I've been able to investigate was 9.
Off the top of my head that's still the latest version. So far as I
could tell there wasn't a single accessibility improvement over the
last update to version 8, which was a bit disheartening. As things
stand,
Logic is useable, and accessibility improvements are supposed to be
imminant. I'd suspect that if protools is bout to vont accessibility
then logic will have to step up even if it isn't prepared to do so,
which I believe it is.
Logic 8 has over 1000 pre-assigned keybord shortcuts and an ac
Here's what someone I trust to know such things once told me when I

unless something goes wrong, of course." I got his point.

Hi May, If you have anything important that you want to keep, you
should back it up regularly. If you are a caution to the wind type
