Brian,
What I find helpful is to change the default "Speak mouse on object after
delay:" (it is worded something like that) to zero, so that there is no delay
between you touching the track pad and hearing Voiceover speak what you are
focused on. I find this most helpful when on the Internet a
I'm so glad you asked this question, I too have been playing with my Track Pad
and find that I can interact, read but not open things using double tap like
the I phone. I want to see if I can use the Track pad exclusively rather than
my keyboard. Is that possible?

Hi,
You may wish to have your IT guy look at a free app called Apple Configurator.
We have been considering using this at our schools but I haven't had enough
time to totally dive into it. It does, however, look quite promising and
useful for multiple iOS device deployments.

you can interact with the table, go to the message, turn trackpad commander

Hey guys thanks for the responses. It sounds like using the keyboard

If your main thing is RTF files, it is very likely that TextEdit will work for

From what I could find there are two ways to get audio in - Via the
dock connector and via the headphone/mic jack. Apparently the
headphone/mic jack is mono so I suspect you'll want to go with some kind
of dock dongle thing. Of course you'll also need some recording software

wireless keyboard, which I will either try to look into getting a less

Hi,
no. you don't need a trackpad. Is there use for one? sure. I mean, its just
another method of interfacing with your Mac. You might decide you like using it
for some tasks more than your keyboard. Especially if you happened to own an
IOS device before owning a Mac. The navigation gestures

You may not have to. Assuming vo is otherwise running normally, use the

Actually, you assume incorrectly. It says plainly on the website that 3.1,

Yes, this will work. But if it's silent, it's also possible that the voice has
just gone down in volume; I've had that happen though not when installing
Infovox. As for getting rid of infovox, that may not be necessary either when
you figure out what happened.

Turn vo off, then back on. The setting should be on voice by default once vo is
