I'll just say, Chris it's not about winning anything, it's about treating each other respectfully and a little professionalism. We're all on this list to get help, to learn and to swap ideas and a little light banter at times. If you have nothing good to say just move on to the next topic or make your points calmly and respectfully.

No more than that is required Sir.

Point taken. I think you're misunderstanding the tone of my message, but I'm so freaking exhausted right now, I'm not in the mood on nor off list to argue, so therefore, I'm just gonna surrender and let you win this one.

Chris,

If you don't mind me saying so, you should not react to messages as i'm afraid to say that you reacting to messages, causes drama on the list. I know you may not like reading what is said but I think it is better for you to take these issues off list and take it up with the person privately. I'm just saying. If you do feel that you have a problem, just privately forward your messages to Mark or Cara who will deal with things for you and hence there will be no drama on list. I'm not attacking you but just saying that no one wants to read your messages which sound sulky and bad tempered and frustrated. You might not like what I read but I am just saying, keep calm and do not get in to a rage as it solves nothing for you or for other members on this list.

If you are going to attack me, before you do so, take a deep breath, calm down and please do report me to Mark and I'm sure he will get in touch with me and then we can sort it out privately. I'll copy Mark in to this anyway so you know he knows what I have said.

Thanks.

Kawal.

Stupid question, and I know Scott, E.T, etc. are probably gonna attack me for this, so go ahead and do so. I won't see your mails anyway, so who cares. Anyway, I probably should a read this thread more in depth, but are you rememberring after creating the activity to then attach it to the application? In the activities category of the VO Utility, after all is set, it'll say, use activity for, and you have to actually pick the .app file of the application, like, mail.app, to attach that particular activity to.

Otherwise, the activity won't do anything. It'll just kind a be there attached to null.

You are welcome and this must be frustrating. I will have to try this on my girlfriend's early 2015 13 inch Macbook Pro when she receives it in time for Christmas and try to get back to you.

Hi Chris, Thanks so much. Yup those are the same exact steps I have been doing but activities still do not work for me. Even tried switching my mail to Daniel to see if it was an issue with Samantha but did not work as Alex is still being used when I go to mail. So strange considering this is a brand new iMac. Thanks again for writing out the steps you are using. Appreciate it.

1. Open VoiceOver Utility and navigate to activities.

2. Click add.

3. If you can't see the option you are looking for, expand the disclosure triangle. Click the checkbox next to the option you wish to change, then click set next to that, such as voices.

4. Set the appropriate options, then click close.

5. In the "use this activity for" menu button, choose either a running application, website or other if you can't see the application. This may be what you were missing. I left that as is, the activity didn't work. So went back in, set it to Mail, and the activity worked as expected.

Hope this helps.

Ok if the activity is working for you would you mind writing out the steps you did, appreciate it. Thanks,

You did what I exactly did, except I used Daniel instead of Samantha, shouldn't make a difference though, but it worked like a charm.

Hey all,

Can someone you claims activities on Sierra works for them please write out the steps they are using to successfully have an activity set for a program. Would love to see if there is something I am missing as Apple cannot seem to figure it out and they still do not work for me. I just deleted all my activities and started new. Created an activity for mail which used the Samantha voice and turned QuickNav off and it still does not work. When I pull mail up using my keyboard shortcut Alex is still reading my mail and QuickNav is still turned on. Thanks,
