Voiceover on Login Screen in ML?

Hi, all, ML has changed things a bit. Is there still a way to have Voiceover in the login screen? I can't seem to find that option anywhere. Thanks, Teresa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to

Re: Attachments

Hmmm, as far as I can tell, when you use VO-shift-m on the dock, it just lists options for manipulating the folder. If you use this keystroke in the dock, find the "open folder" option and hit enter. Otherwise, simply open the folder from the finder with command-option-l. Then find your items an

Go to dropbox in the Extras menu and open preferences from the menu. Uncheck "show desktop notifications." HtH, Teresa On Aug 4, 2012, at 5:54 PM, Bill Holton wrote: > Hi. > How can I get Dropbox to stop putting alerts in my notification center? It > seems to want to put a new one there ever

Re: Getting Mission Control out of the way.

Before I disabled the Mission Control keystroke, it would come up every time I used VO-up-arrow, which contains the control-up-arrow keystroke. That's probably what's happening in a lot of cases. Teresa On Aug 7, 2012, at 8:14 PM, Veronica Elsea wrote: > Hi Christine and everyone. > Okay, I'

Re: Audio Hijack Pro, Weirdness when Selecting Days of the week?

Yes, Al, I noticed this, too. Tab with spacebar is the best bet. You could also turn cursor tracking off and then use VO to check the boxes, but that seems like the long way round. I don't have an explanation for this behavior, but the workaround is quite doable, so I haven't really pursued it.

Using Time Machine Inside Mail and Other Apps?

Hi, all, Has anyone had success using Time Machine inside Mail and other apps? In Mail, I can't seem to manipulate the time and date selector, for example. Is there a way to go into Time Machine's folders and examine the data there? I'd prefer to use the interface, if it's accessible. Thanks,

Re: Please explain disclosure triangles

Hi, Mary, Disclosure triangles are used for examining files or browsing for them within a dialog. Suppose you want to save a file and you want to save it somewhere other than the default location listed. You can press VO-space on the disclosure triangle and this will open up a display of folder

Re: multiple messages from macvisionaries group

Hi, Brian, In Gmail, you can first set up labels and then set up filters to allow messages to be sorted by these labels. However, this requires a lot of website navigation. You can do this from any computer using any platform. In Mac Mail, you would first create new mailboxes from the mailboxes

Technically speaking, How Does Screen Curtain Actually Work?

Ok, one of my notorious "just wondering" questions. I've heard many discussions about whether screen curtain saves battery life in laptops and the smaller devices. I'm wondering if screen curtain works by modifying information that's already been passed to the display, or whether it bypasses th
