Re: Vmware tools for linux.

Anders: It's been quite a while, but I did successfully install VMware on my Airbook a few years ago using just Voice Over. I don't recall the details. PS: I have it on pretty good authority a more fully accessible VMware is slated for release around September timeframe. Best, Janina Anders Ho

Hi, Supposedly, it should not matter as they both use the iCloud Music Library. But, I ended up keeping both. Apple Music kept substituting live versions, or alternative, versions of many of my titles that were ripped from CD’s. The version that I am used to hearing, is the version that I pr

Microsoft Edge on Catalina

Hello, I am running the latest Catalina on my iMac and have been trying the Microsoft Edge web browser. It looks good so far. It is fast and I have not seen much busy. IS there any way to transfer my bookmarks from Safari to Edge? Not being able to do this will inhibit my use of Edge! Best … Pa

Re: iOS 13 Continuous Read Borked—Is It Just Me?

Yes, look at your voiceover settings, I am fairly confident that I changed or reviewed something in my VoiceOver settings to play a tone for links. Of course if VO sounds and possibly if mute are turned on, the VO sounds won’t play. Good Luck! Jonathan > On Jun 22, 2020, at 4:43 PM, Petrus Tuer

Re: WWDC Releases

I think you will find that the car keys on the phone will work in conjunction with Face ID so I don’t think someone will be able to steal your phone and car. So it would probably be more secure then an actual key or keyless remote that someone could use if it fell out of ones pocket or lost ones

Hi Brad, Thanks for this info. The Startup Chime is classic in my opinion and pretty well necessary for us blind users. I did do the Terminal thing in Catalina on my 2017 MBP and it worked like a charm. Putting it into System Prefs is just what the Doctor ordered. Later… Tim Kilburn Jamf

Re: The Mac startup chime is making a return in macOS Big Sur

True. The start-up chime is iconic. I remember my old Apple IIc had its own chime sound. I was totally dismayed when Apple did away with it on the 2016 MBPs. I too have restored the chime on my 2019 MBP 13 and my new mini. Wish I could get it on my iPhone/iPad. That would be awesome. - Brad
