Dear Yuma,
great idea. Count me in as well.
I think we should also ask for accessibility for Logic, which still belongs to
Apple. That leads me to the question I asked about this pro audio list that
disappeared. Does anyone know what became of it? I even tried and contact a few

Hi,
No, VoiceOver does not support flash. Adobe apparently refuses to
support VoiceOver, but a petition has been signed.

Hi,
This might limit those people without a trackpad, though. Not everyone

Hi Anni.
Have you checked if there are more than one window opened when you try
to open Readiris? You can try to bring up the window chooser by
pressing vo f2 twice and see if there are any alerts you have to read
before the program opens.

I definitely share that opinion. I myself switched mainly because of

In my opinion, it is always best to install a clean version of an

Hi folks,
There's been some buz in the news lately about an upcoming refresh of Apple's
mice. A few stories suggest we'll be getting some type of aluminum cased
multi-touch devices. Here are a few links.

My local Apple store doesn't even know that Voiceover exists, well now they do,
because I explained it to them.

Hi,
Yes, same here. He knew a little about VoiceOver, but they didn't
provide training if you required it. In fact, he didn't know how to
turn it on, so I was glad I read through the entire VoiceOver manual

Hi
Insert the DVD into your drive.
When starting up your Mac, when you hear the usual startup tone you
hold down the C-key and the drive should start spinning. After a
couple of minutes you should be in the Language Chooser, if all goes
well and you can then start VoiceOver.
Hope it works

Hi,
I meant the help said it's the accent key. I don't see it in keyboard
help, though. It's probably some odd combination I haven't tried out
yet. Thing is, this keyboard does not have an accent key, as such.
Most likely to simulate the accent key, another key has to be pressed
as well.

An applcation for the Mac called Snatch, allows the iPhone to function

If you hold down the option key as you are launching iTunes, you'll be
given the opportunity to create a new library. (And where to put it,
too.) Then, just do the same again (hold the option key) when you
launch iTunes and you'll be asked to choose which library you want to
use.
Hope this helps.
