Boot camp questions

2011-06-08 Thread Shannon Dyer
Hi, all. There are a few programs that won't run on the mac, and so, I was told that, using boot camp, I could get windows to run on the Mac. I'm not sure how to do this though, as I see no reference to boot camp anywhere on this machine. Also, I'm wondering if this is something I can do myself

Backspacing on a BrailleConnect with Voiceover

2011-06-08 Thread Jessie Kirchner
Hi List, I'm using a BrailleConnect 24 with my Mac to read and enter Braille into documents, but I can't figure out how to backspace over mistakes. There's nothing in the Assign Commands table either. Is there any way not to have to use the computer keyboard? I'm probably missing something.

Have you recently done a permissions fix in disk utility. I know folks that swear this helps, but I have doubts that it really should. I would expect that doing the following might be more useful but a bit dangerous. In terminal run the following commands. 1. cd /Users/ 2. sudo chown -R

2011-06-08 Thread Cam
Hi all, I have installed fusion on my MacBook Air and am running windows 7 64 byt. The Air's specs are maxed out - 4gb ram, 2.1ghz processor (it is one of the late 2010 models). The problem I'm having is that Jaws is stuttering a little when I have say two or three word docs open at once. I've tri

I'm no exbert, but I hear that windows 64 bittt needs at least 4 gigs of ram. And what the mac can do, the minumum you need is 4 gigs of ram. So I don't think switching to boot camp, or another windows screen reader will make a difference. JMO Sent from Minister Miller's IPhone On Jun 8, 20
