Hi Vaughan! It's nice to see you on the list all the way from New Zealand!
Here's a couple of things you can look at: http://www.icanworkthisthing.com http://www.screenlessswitchers.com and: http://www.lioncourt.com all of them either have or link to the types of things you need. In addition, if you haven't found it yet, command-control-option-f8 will launch a quickstart tutorial to show you the underpinnings of how voice over works. there is also a voice over list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't know exactly how to subscribe off hand but if you go to http://www.freelists.com you can find it there. Also, don't hesitate to look at its archives and I hope someone posts the info on how to get the up to date archives of this list too. We're here to help so if you need info, don't struggle too hard to get it, just ask. Enjoy and again, welcome! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vaughan Dodd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Discussion of all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by the blind" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, April 26, 2008 4:29 AM Subject: Getting Started with my Mac Hello everyone. Today I own a new Mac Book. So far: based on my very limited knowledge, I have VoiceOver working with my braille display (after a fashion.)' So as not to clutter up the list with senseless questions which everyone asks, can I be pointed to the step by step guides to learning to use the Mac? I am prowling through the ACB Radio material, but its value is (unfortunately) quite limited as I think I need a beginner's manual if such a beast has been written. First impressions are great: I loved the fact that my Braille display was recognised instantly, that the machine started up and went into a useful state quickly and the keyboard is so nice and quiet. All help and advice for useful resources gratefully received. Thanks. Vaughan. email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone +64 9 278 4909 Mobile +21 784 856 Skype Vaughan53 e: vaughan53
