Hi Brian, I assume you continue to use the Mac, and as a result, your feedback is important. Good luck as we both continue to traverse the Mac world! Les On Aug 14, 2012, at 9:47 AM, Brian Fischler wrote: > Well put Les. I have almost given up on a lot of tables on the mac, > and numbers is

Well put Les. I have almost given up on a lot of tables on the mac, and numbers is driving me crazy, as sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. I know Apple is working on these things, and they aren't the easiest problems to fix, but hey, I lack patience. On Aug 12, 11:27 pm, Les Kriegler

Hi Brian, Keep on posting please. Like you, I'm a big believer in Apple and what they've done, but Apple currently cannot handle all of our needs. Examples would be reading of tables and reading of pdf documents. I use my Mac virtually all of the time but still use Windows on occasion for th

Hey guys, healthy disagreement here. And yes, Ricardo I do agree with you that technology has come a very very long way in ten years, and I think Apple is one of the companies at the fore front of this. I was just adding that every time I have posted something on this list that goes against the nor

I was just making a comment, I didn't say you were the one being smarter or better that's your assumption Ricardo. Let's not make an issue of this and move on as this conversation is a waste of time. Kawal. On 12 Aug 2012, at 06:38 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi Kawal, > > I think assuming

Hi Kawal, I think assuming someone disagrees with a persons views because they think they are better are smarter is pretty far out there. I'm sure if you were on a jaws list, windows list, etc, you would find similar opposition to comments criticizing the subject matter the list was meant to c

Hi, Actually, my comment had nothing to do with a criticism of Apple. it was your social comment, "Here is another example of how a blind > > person has no shot at being as productive of our sighted peers". That > comment doesn't really sound like it has anything to do with Apple > specifica

Geez, anytime anyone on this list criticizes Apple, they get attacked personally. it's not being pesimistic it's being a realist. While I do appreciate you responding, calling me pesimistic doesn't really help solve the problem On Aug 12, 11:58 am, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi, > > I don't think yo

Well, forget about my last post and this selecting and copying working so well. Yet another bug in ML, and yes, I will report it to Apple. Selecting the text on a web page works fine the first time, but if you want to select another part of the text from the same,Voiceover will not regain its focus

Hi, I don't think your doing anything wrong. I think focus just gets lost sometimes. If you haven't, you might try toggling Voiceover on/off. I have seen this behavior once or twice. For the most part though, its worked pretty well. Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple

Hey all, Trying to copy some text in safari and have run in to some issues, not sure what I am doing wrong, and it is probably a setting, so wanted to see if anyone knew. It is weird as at first this was working, but it doesn't seem like the cursor is following VO and I have checked my settings in
