The problem of no windows when an app starts

Ok, I recently acquired a new machine here and it has high Sierra on board. So, I am getting used to a bunch of new stuff here. However, what I didn’t expect which was common on my old OS X Lion system was the case of an application starting, but not producing any windows. In the current case, t

Re: Export a pages document to another format

This works in all applications: press vo-m. In case you're not familiar, the VO keys are control and option together. You can choose to use caps lock as well, but that's a different post. You would hold down control and option, press m, then let the keys go. VoiceOver should announce that you'r

Re: TextEdit and Windows

ET, In notepad++ there is a item in the editing menu for changing line endings. It looks like the Latin / Win encoding used “Unix” style line endings. Windows expects the line to end with both a carriage return and a new line character. Which is not terribly surprising since DEC Operating Syst

Leo, To add to Alex's instructions, know that the menus are slightly different in the MacOS as compared to Windows. That is, in Windows, the File, Edit, View etc menus are attached to the window of the application, whereas, the menus are permanently connected to the Desktop screen. So, as Ale

Whenever it happens to me, it usually means that the app in question is not accessible with Voiceover. I usually promptly uninstall it. The only way I can close it is by force shut down menu. Andrew > On Apr 5, 2018, at 10:56 AM, Eric Oyen wrote: > > Ok, > I recently acquired a new machine he

Let's hope somebody will reengineer VoiceOver to not go busy so often. It has been said for years that it's because VO insists on not spreading its processing requirements over available cores. If that's true, and it sounds like it could be and probably is, what's taken them so long to fix that
