Re: How Often Would I Need A Numb Pad

if you're doing specialized work, such as recording, audio production etcetera, then you definitely will need a numpad as far as I've heard. I, on the other hand, have a full wired keyboard with a numpad, and I keep it tied to my Dell Inspiron E1505, which is running the deprecated OS, Windows

Hi, One thing I wish they would do is make it easyer to remove the preview pain in mail. As it stands now, you have to drag the slider bar to the bottom of the screen and for someone who doesn't use a mouse or track pad very often this is a pain. Matthew On 06/19/2016 04:29 AM, Saqib

Re: Update on my issueRe: Urgent Help! Voiceover on my Mac got muted!!!

Hi Simon, The system mute function (F10) does not do the same thing. There is a specific “mute VoiceOver” toggle which is executed with the three-finger double-tap on the trackpad. To assign it to a keystroke, you need to use VO-F8 to open the Voice Over Utility, navigate to the Commanders sect
