Can you tell us what keys you are trying to use? Perhaps we can replicate the

Hi, I can answer the second question about app delete. Yes, if you
click the orphans button in the app it will look for things left
behind from old deleted apps.
Hope this helps! Jeff

Ever since last night, when I was having my mail issues and had to try to
recreate my Comcast Imap account, I find now that all the buttons just to the

I posted this to my list but thought there may be some interest here. As some
of you know I’ve taken up drones as an interest area and specifically been
tackling whether a blind person could successfully fly a drone, whether a blind
person could build a drone, and in general what kind of place
Does anyone know why with the latest version of Google Chrome, and El Capitan
10.11.3, my Google Chrome keeps randomly openning for some odd reason.
Just wanted to see if any of you all might know why this is happenning, or if
any of you have seen this.
I can't pinpoint down what makes it open.
I have seen it open automatically on boot but so far not randomly. I am using
this configuration though so I will report if this changes.

I was posting a photo this morning and noticed that when using a bluetooth
keyboard in the iOS FB app, I could get into the edit box to type my
description but none of the keystrokes registered. Once out of the edit box, I
could move around the screen, etc. with my keyboard.

Hello Ray,
Try as I may, I cannot think of what the problem could be. How is Safari
performing on your OS?
The reason I ask is because the last time I saw such a change in an OS X
interface was because the person, against my explicit instructions by the way,
installed some freeware that ree
Hi Scott,
You have me really curious and since we are on topic here with the iPhone,
do you have a demonstration of how to use an accessible app to control the
copter? How are you able to fly it successfully as far as direction and
avoiding any accidents? I’m really interested in this kind of
Hello Bill,
I’m not having your problems either on my MacBook Air running in English, or on
my White MacBook running in French. Both are running the latest OS.
Have you reinitialised the PRAM? It can often fix odd behaviour.
Cheers,

It only seems to be on one screen oddly enough, the one to submit a photo. My
keyboard worked everywhere else. I’m also thinking my keyboard finally needs
new batteries. Bought it on black Friday and am just now changing batteries.

Well it’s funny, I just picked up some GoPros and gear to start producing

First, with the more advanced copters it’s possible to use softw

This facisnates me. I’d love to hear a demo with the iOS apps being used. It
all makes sense to me, though. The problem is money here is a problem and time

component so I’m even registered and on the level. That being said, I do

Well, definitely let us know how you make out. Again, if this drifts off

Sometimes, especially in new apps I am not yet familiar with, I may
encounter a button or label that I cannot understand. Is there a VO
command to spell out such items?

Yes, reset PRAM, deleted the Pages app and reinstalled. Strange thing is, on
the same Mini, Text Edit works just as it should. No activities at all on this
system. Two Access support techs have gotten nowhere. It’s a tiny thing, but
nice to know when you have misspelled a word as you go.
Hi Keith, Sound Forge has some presets for RMS normalisation, and I've always
stuck with those guidelines. You're right, 0DB is definitely too loud when
you're using RMS.
Try -16DB for music, and -10DB for speech and see if that works for you.

You can use the rotor to navigate by character to spell out the button name.

Sometimes, vo-w twice will do it. If not, interact with the title and use
vo-shift-right or vo-shift-left to review the text by character. Don't use
shift, and you'll move by word.

I thought the sound would never end but I thought it great.

I wonder if you could delete (or tempororarily move) your com.apple.pages*
files in your preference area. ANother thing to attempt would be to create
an account to see if a fresh account also does not speak mis-spelled words.
Take care,

Do you have an activity set for Safari by chance. The keyboard commander
should work universally when you assign them, unless you have set an Activity
for an app that has a different configuration.

I'm not sure I follow. A window is a container that has no title to VoiceOver.
Well, it does, but as far as I know, that title is written somewhere in the
