Thankfully, you don't have to rely on Voice Over when running Linux shell level apps. Instead, you use Speakup, or brltty, or emacspeak, or perhaps the new Henrii. Voice Over would be as bad at the Linux shell as it is in the Mac terminal. You might want VO in Linux graphical desktop apps, but it

Re: VO bug logging in with Filevolt enabled

Simon, Are you doing this from complete shutdown or restart? With File Vault enabled, the initial login screen after restart or shutdown is pre-system load-up, thus VO is not usually available. After you've got past this screen, then can be a second login which is totally available. Now, I'm

I'll take another look at it. Last time I worked with a client who had multiple accounts, it wasn't working. I only have one account on my machines I use FileVault with, so I haven't had a need to look around the screen. Take Care John D. Panarese Director Mac for the Blind Tel, (631) 724

Hello list, Here's my 2 cents worth. I'm currently running the latest OS12 on my MBP 2014 model year machine. I have 5 accounts on this machine and the system is FileVault encrypted. I have VO set to come on during login. This is what happens when I boot the machine. 1. the machine starts. 2. Aft

Re: VIrtual box and other operating systems than windows.

There is one possibility of using VoiceOver when working with a Linux VM but I would expect it would not work very well. 1. Start Linux VM. 2. Start X11 server on the Macintosh and have it connect to the VM. 3. Try using VoiceOver with the X11 Screens. I have no idea if the X11 window server whi
