Hey Scott, sorry about that. <smile> There's actually a pop-up
button there with a bunch o' options under it that you can choose
from. Once you choose something like 'incoming message' you can then
set what action you'd like to have happen. I believe that's also a
pop-up, but don't have it in front of me right now.
Hope your Friday is going well!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

Hey Cara, thanks, I actually looked there so either totally missed
it or just don't recall what that preference is entitled.
Thanks for at least keeping me from looking totally foolish.:)

Well ok, someone help me out here. There was a way to have iChat
speak the incoming text and I haven't used iChat in quite a while
so I'm embarrassed to say I haven't a clue where that setting is.
Huh, they moved it just to pull my chain apparently.:)
Someone help a brother out here?

hey John,
yay, a mac newbie!!! this does my heart good, lol. I hope you're
enjoying it!!! I remember when I'd just had mine for a day, I was
sitting in my parents' cabin listening to voiceover manuals and
trying to cram commands into my brain, lol. it was fun, I love
challenges like that!!!
anyway, with IChat, I find adium works better. I've never
actually tried IChat, but adium works really well. you can get it
from www.adiumx.com and it's cool cuz if you have multiple
messenger accounts, you can set them all up in there and you'll
see them all at once. I have my aim, msn and facebook all in
there. it doesn't read messages automaticly either, but it
definitely reads the whole message instead of just the last few
lines.
to get a message to read automaticly in mail, press control
options j on it. VO will start reading it automaticly. when
you're finished, you can press command r to reply, or control
option j again to get back into your messages table to look
through the rest of your messages.
peace and positivity

Hi all,
I just got my macbook yesterday, and I have a few questions.
Ichat:
For some reason, if I write a message that spans multiple lines,
voiceover only reads the last few words of the message when I
send it. Additionally it does not read any incoming messages
from my buddies. Since this is not happening automatically, what
preferences should I modify in Ichat to fix this?
mail:
There is a slight problem I'm having with mail. When I press
enter on a message in my inbox, it is not read automatically. I
have to hit tab a time or two before the contents is read. How
can I fix this? I already hid the toolbar.
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated. I'm really liking
the mac so far!
Thanks in advance,
John J Herzog
