I don’t get exactly what you are doing? I just have to interact with the category name and I see all the emojis there. “Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven” – Satan, from Milton’s Paradise Lost > On Feb 9, 2021, at 9:13 AM, Jessica Moss wrote: > > I actually noticed that as well,

Mail often hangs in Bigsur 11.2

Hello, I am using Apple Mail on Bigsur 11.2. Quite often Mail keeps saying “busy” when I try to read a message. I have 3 Email accounts and have set up All Inboxes so that I see all messages in a single table. When I have located a message of interest I press VO+J to read the message text. This

Re: Mail often hangs in Bigsur 11.2

This is not a new issue, and is not unique to Big Sur. I currently experience this on Catalina, and other versions of macOS and iOS going back a while. I believe this is a server-side issue, and not anything you can do about it. - Brad - On Feb 9, 2021, at 12:31, Paul Hopewell wrote: Hello,

Re: Mail often hangs in Bigsur 11.2

I have only encountered this on occasion. I don’t use the VO+J command. I simply go to the message of interest and read it directly. And yes, I am running latest version of Catalina (system updated today in fact). Mail does sometimes hang whenever the server gets too busy. Also, if trying to loa

iPhone SE 2020 out of the box

Hi everyone, I’ve never used an iPhone and was hoping out of the box I could use Serri to turn on voice over and begin set up. But when I press the home key, I do not get any reply. How do I turn on voice over right out of the box to begin set up? Thanks. Patrick Come and See scripturepassage-

I don’t believe that the keyboard command CMD + Shift + Plus-sign does anything. Your earlier email asked what the command VO + \ does. When using Keyboard help, you are told VO + \, opens/closes a disclosure triangle. A disclosure triangle is used to show/hide additional information for a dial

OK, I found it. When in both the TextEdit and Mail apps, and probably Pages as well, the keyboard command CMD + PlusSign, will increase the Font size. The keyboard command CMD + MinusSign, will do the opposite, and decrease Font size. Adding the Shift key to either command, doesn’t change what th
