want to see what VMWare says since Apple states it is a VMware issue. Under windows you do not have the issues where eVoice-over is still intersecting keystrokes. If it is at a very low level then this could end up being an Apple issue after all. Sean > On 16 Jun 2015, at 8:10 pm, Sean Mur

All, So Mac does not have a one software solution. Using face time and other methods defeat the purpose of VNC. You may as well not use a remote control and tell the person what to do. Remote desktop and Citrix on Windows provide the remote desktop control on windows. If Mac has Citrix then

This sound like a comms issue between Voice-over, the API and the browser. I assume you are using safari. The question is safari sending the information to Voice-over from this open source editor? If not, then that is the issue. I mention this because you are entering information into the edito

You need a remap program within Windows to change the behaviour. Voice-Over doesn't release keys when VMWare is running. Something I raised ages ago with Apple and they blame VMWare. Of course VMWare blame Apple. Sean On 01/11/2013, at 9:32 AM, Scott Erichsen wrote: > Hi all, > > I upgrade
