Tips for Using Track Changes

Re: chess?

Re: chess?

That's what I never understood. As a blind person, with a physical board, how are we to get a visual layout of the on-screen board? And yes, the Chess app is very accessible, what what I remember. You can even set it up to read the computer's moves automatically. On Jul 7, 2012, at 4:59 PM, C

Re: chess?

Alex, As far as I know, having been trounced soundly by my Macbook Pro on multiple occasions, the Chess app works just fine with VO. I'm, actually, planning to set up a board next to the laptop & pay more attention next time, by echoing the moves in the real & tactile world. Good luck, CJ

Re: Really having a hard time trying to save with pages 09 over original file experimenting but no results.

Hi, when using Pages, when you save a file that you want to be in .doc format, the best thing to do is go to export, then choose "Microsoft Word" format. When you open the document back up and make changes to it, you can then save changes to the original by choosing import and then save once yo

Hi, I've tried to create a document with Google using Safari and VO on my Mac. At first I clicked on "Using Screenreader". My first impression: that's not funny. I got no responds of what I wrote and there was no real edit field to write text in. But maybe I'm not enough used to it and there
