If I remember correctly, it's possible to use an Apple computer with VoiceOver turned on to control an Apple TV box. You might send email to accessibil...@apple.com and ask if this is the case or if an iPhone can be used to do that just in case you haven't got an Apple computer. I'm pretty su

I think someone posted a response that they got from accessibliity a couple of weeks ago where they were informed that the remote app wouldn't work. I can't find the exact message right now, but it was in the big thread that there was about apple tv in late september early october. On 09/10/2010,

Has anyone tried to control the apple tv with the iPhone or iPod touch? I know it may take some sighted help to set it up, but I wonder if that would work at all. I should go get one and try it out. GF On Oct 9, 2010, at 11:21 AM, Ben Mustill-Rose wrote: > It has been my experience that even i

It has been my experience that even if accessibility did know about an upcoming feature, (Which they probably won't), they will be unable to tell you about it; it's just the way that Apple works. I'm sorry to hear about your loss of sight; but in this situation, I think it would be best if you wer

Hi: I can't say for sure whether they are bringing voiceover to apple tv. But I would bet my next paycheck that if you contact accessibility, they would know, and/or Apple would grant you a refund. Sorry for your recent loss of vision. I can relate all too well as my hearing fluctuates. Take c

I preordered the apple tv back on September 13th and it just arrived today, but in that one month I've actually lost a noticeable amount of vision. Should I hold out for voiceover if it's even coming to apple tv? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVi
