Re: Voiceover focus question

Hello Joseph, In System Preferences, go to Notifications where you’ll find a table of all the applications that put out notifications. You can select the type of notification you want for each application or turn them all off. I have them turned off for everything. Cheers, Anne > On 21 No

Re: Voiceover focus question

Hi, Yes, in System Preference, Notifications. Go to the Applications table, select Mail, then set the notifications to suppress notifications from Mail. Suppress may not be the exact term, but turn off anything to do with notifications in Mail and you should be fine. Later... Tim Kilburn A

Sorry yes if I am in safari with mail open and I get a new email it takes VoiceOver to that message previeww and stops reading my safari window if I am doing a read all for example. Other than do not disturb is there a way around this? > On Nov 20, 2019, at 4:32 PM, Jonathan Cohn wrote: > > I

Re: Additional iTunes fields

Hi, The BPM field might be used for this. However, iTunes doesn’t populate it automatically. You would have to use a third party tool to analyze the file and return the proper value. Beatunes seems to be fairly popular. > On Nov 20, 2019, at 16:20, Traci Duncan wrote: > > Hi all, > > I am

Additional iTunes fields

Hi all, I am wondering if there are additional playlist fields that I may not have thought of. I have all my Christmas music under the grouping Cringle Crunes, then they are under various genres. So, it is easy for me to create a smart playlist of country Christmas, Jazz Christmas, etc. What I

Re: Voiceover focus question

I expect this is the Mail notifications you are talking about? After you hear about the new e-mail message are you still in Safari, or has focus moved somewhere else? There might be a way to have Notifications not speak, or you can turn on Do not disturb settings. I am being vague here, but if
