As far as I know, all screen readers that work in windows are compatible. I
personally use Jaws and NVDA, but Windows Eyes also works and others no doubt
as well. Virtualization produces a discrete platform for the OS that is not
easily affected by the host system’s limitations.

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.

Hi,
Logging into windows just to turn around and log in to the mac and vice
versa is too much.
here is a quicker way.
Here is the steps I used.
when I start the mac normally, windows would start.
Here is how to choose the drive you want.
Start your Mac, at the sound press and hold the option key
in Mac system preferences, find and press enter on “startup disk”. in that
dialog, you will see the option to select the bootcamp installation as the
startup disk. select it and press restart. Your MBA will reboot into bootcamp
windows.
There is a similar functionality on the windows side. From

Use x-fat.
Everything except a device like a Victor Reader will be able to read

The rule is that a disk less than or equal to 32 GB should be formatted as
FAT32, whereas disks larger than 32 GB should be formatted as ExFAT.
Exception: for interoperability with Linux, always use FAT32. This works
because the overhead required for maintaining the directories and FAT is abou
Ok, I'll go with MS DOS then.

According to apple, msdos fat is the one you want.
I have used XFat before as well, but as long as your not using files over 4 or
4.5 gig I think it is, MSDosFat works on all devices.

Hi,
NTFS is readable by OS X but not writeable without diving into the Terminal or
using some third party utilities. In Disk Utility, your choices for making
drives accessible by both Windows and Mac are FAT32 and XFAT. FAT32 should do
the trick for a Flash drive. If it was an external HD, X
NTFS you cannot write to, only read from on OS X. Not unless you get software
that'll allow you to somehow perform both actions.

NTFS would be the best and most secure however I know OS X can read
it and I am pretty sure it can write to it as well.
If not, go with x-fat aka fat64.

Have you tried saving the file as a Microsoft Word document while on the mac

I am working with a file that I have created on my Mac and I need to access it
on my Windows machine. The line endings are all messed up though, so that
