Thanks everyone. A bit of googling reveals that this topic is discussed surprisingly infrequently on blogs and mainstream Apple/tech sites, so this input is valuable. If anyone has any other thoughts, I'd love to hear them. I'm still torn--I have no problem configuring my own routers, provided t

So long as I interact with text, I've never had VO start reading from anywhere other than were I am in the text. I use plain arrows with Quick Nav off, and have used OS X for four years. This might be one of those things that Apple hasn't addressed because they can't reproduce it. Not to say it

Hi. My wife says they are green, orange—red?—and black. The USB cable goes into the box, those three cables go to my 5.1 system subwoofer, the subwoofer has the amp, I am guessing, and there are five audio cable jacks in it that lead to the left, right, satellite, and center channels. The spea

Hello there. I don’t know about audacity. Garage band however is reasonably accessible for your purposes. Another useful and accessible tool is amadeus pro. This is a very powerful and accessible wave editor. Of course, this depends on your specific needs. You may also want to consider a mixer
