Don't think you understand what the issue is. I'll try to explain better. So sometimes on the desktop when you go to the window switcher (VO-f2 twice), there are notifications. I want to access these notification with a quicker keystroke. There is no other apps running. CMD-accend doesn't switc

That's the problem. As I stated command accent doesn't actually switch to dialogs that you can get to with VO f2 in the Window switcher. For example, a finder alert, VPN alert or a notification. On 5/26/2015 8:00 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi, To switch between windows, use the built-in MacOS comm

Hi, unfortunately, as of right now you can only start a call from your Mac and switch back to your iPhone. You can't start a call on your iPhone and switch to your Mac. Hopefully this will be addressed somewhere in the future. That seems like such a logical omission for them to have missed. Sen

as long as you know the boot order you can use a scheme like that to determine the boot OS. Problem is, yours is not a typical boot order, usually its Mac OS, then Recovery, then bootcamp. But it could be any order depending on various factors. Usually Mac OS X comes up when booting a mac. One
